The Lore-El Center is located in a beautiful, Victorian-style home in close proximity to the Stevens campus that serves as a central point of community and education for Stevens women.  As part of the Office of Student Culture and Belonging, the mission of Lore-El at Stevens is to increase awareness to issues facing not only women but all genders; empower Stevens women to further their co-curricular development; and create a supportive and inclusive campus environment.

A small group of women committed to educational and social programming apply and are selected to reside in the house each year. Student Affairs staff serve as mentors and educators for Lore-El and assist with developing and implementing programs and events for the Stevens community.  

A History of Supporting Women

Since becoming co-ed in 1971, Stevens has worked hard over the past five decades to make sure women who are interested in STEM careers can come to Castle Point and reach their full potential. Since 1999, the Lore-El Center has been home to that effort in more ways than one.

Engagement

The Lore-El Center is benefitting from major renovations. To keep this valuable center flourishing while contributing to Stevens’ vibrant campus, additional capital improvements are needed. Engagement with Lore-El will further interpersonal, social, and professional development through annual programs and initiatives. It will also connect students, faculty, staff, alums, and friends of Stevens who share a common passion for women’s empowerment and success. Additionally, it will provide opportunities for the Stevens community to engage in dialogue on gender-related issues in safe and comfortable spaces; support students, faculty, and staff in navigating the university environment and professional opportunities; and promote successful careers for undergraduate women.
