V-Day at MU on Friday, Feb. 18
By: Meghan Stewart, Corner Post staff

The University of Missouri—Columbia will be presenting a benefit production of The Vagina Monologues at 7 p.m., February 18 at Jesse Auditorium.

The monologues were created by Eve Ensler author of The Vagina Monologues. The Vagina Monologues, more commonly known as V-day, is a collection of small skits about the vagina based on true stories. The Vagina Monologues’ purpose is to raise awareness and funds for local organizations to end violence against women and girls.

MU students, faculty and staff along with other volunteers will perform the skits. The organizer for this year’s performance is Julie Ditmars, a master’s student at MU. All proceeds from the performance will go to local women’s shelters and organizations that help women.
