7 weeks of meaningful peer discussions

*********************************

Are you...
* hungry for "real" conversations about social identity?
* seeking exchanges wherein different opinions are truly respected?
* in need of a place to ask those tough questions?
* interested in learning more about equity issues?
* a sophomore, junior, or senior? (Sorry, 15s, but you can apply in the winter!)


We will be discussing six primary areas of social identity:

RACE, ETHNICITY, and CULTURE                                       GENDER

SEXUAL ORIENTATION                 RELIGION and SPIRITUALITY

ABILITY                            and CLASS/SOCIOECONOMIC STATUS


What are the commitments?
* attend one hour small group discussions for 7 consecutive weeks
* get together weekly with an assigned student partner to discuss assigned topics
* complete short journal reflections

What have past participants gained?
* "It  gave me a chance to step outside myself and my own world view."
* "The program provided me with a safe space for honest dialogue and
reflection.  I feel empowered in my everyday activities and now I have a
community and a group of friends that I can talk to."
* "The program allows deep conversations to take place, which is a HUGE
benefit, considering how we cannot truly understand certain issues without
getting personal."
* "I thought that I knew everything about the issues related to diversity
until I participated in this program.  It was a lot more engaging and
challenging than I expected."
