Brown Bag Lunch Series

I thought that this was an interesting opportunity for students to get involved with.  MICA (Multicultural Involvement and Community Advocacy) is holding a "Cross Cultural Brown Bag Series" allowing all members of the campus community to come together and discuss important issues.

Through my internship in the Community Service-Learning office I've noticed that these conversations about "civic engagement" and social issues are common among the faculty of the university, but rarely engaged by the wider student body.  The university is a place of learning and, I believe, that it's important to have all ideas being put out on the table so that we can learn from one another's experiences.

It's exciting that there are more spaces are being given for students and faculty to listen to one another.

The next brown bag lunch will be held on Monday November 9th and the topic of discussion will be Latino/as in the military during WWII.  The brown bag lunches are held in the Stamp Student Union, Student Involvement Suite, Terrapin Rooms B & C, 12:00p-1:30p.

Until next time,

Sasha
