On March 8, Bilkent students gathered in front of the Faculty of Science building to celebrate International Women’s Day. Members of the student club Bilkent Kadın Çalışmaları Topluluğu, who organized the day’s events on campus, read a declaration on the empowerment of women, women’s rights and the importance of equality between men and women.
Students then walked up the Main Alley to the Faculty of Art, Design and Architecture building in a show of solidarity.
