The Danger of a Single Story

In the Center for Transformation

Lamson Library, room 003

 Our lives, our cultures, are composed of many overlapping stories. Novelist Chimamanda Adichie tells the story of how she found her authentic cultural voice — and warns that if we hear only a single story about another person or country, we risk a critical misunderstanding.

The First Thursday of Each Month, 4-5pm

Center for Transformation, room 003 in Lamson Library

These conversations will be facilitated by Success Coach, Kelsey Donnelly, and High Impact Learning Partner, Jess Dutille, on the first Thursday of each month from 4-5pm in the Center for Transformation in Lamson Library, room 003. All students are welcome to attend!

“I believe we can change the world if we start listening to one another again.”

May 2018 Conversation Topic: Making Meaning of Your College Experience

What was your main driving force for attending college and what have been the most meaningful aspects of your experience? What haven’t you explored yet that you would really like to experience? Do you have advice for those in the process of deciding their next educational endeavor? Come and engage in this conversation about how we can go about experiencing more meaning in our lives.

April 2018 Conversation Topic: Building Connections

College students are surrounded by so many people on campuses in living and learning spaces, and yet many feel disconnected and alone. What causes this disconnection? Is it living in today’s fast paced society, advances in technology, and/or underlying fears that cause division? What could be driving a sense of isolation, and is there anything we can do about it? Please join us for our first Compassionate & Courageous Conversation as we explore the topic of connection.
