Mirrorless Monday is an annual, campus wide campaign to encourage body positivity through various messages on mirrors and a campaign that seeks to remind everyone that their self-worth is not tied to a reflection in a mirror. The campaign is a partnership between Campus Wellness and Plant Operations. For the one-day campaign today, a portion of washroom mirrors in various locations on campus will be covered with positive messages and supportive resources including Counselling Services, MATES, Good2Talk, etc. The messages will be placed on the mirrors at the beginning of the day (Feb 5th) and removed by 10:00 a.m. on Tuesday.

Most of those who had experienced these unwanted behaviours stated that the perpetrators were fellow students. Relatively few students said that the perpetrators were professors and others in positions of authority.
As society learns more about the causes, both direct causes such as breaking consent, and indirect causes like systems that benefit men and blame victims/survivors for what happened to them, it’s important to learn about these causes and how you can contribute to preventing them. It’s not just to show the people around you that you want them to lead a life free of gender-based violence and the many barriers it creates, but it also shows future employers that you’ve invested in equity work – one more way to set your resume apart of the rest of the crowd. Please note: This certificate is available to male identifying participants only.
