- MLK DAY PROGRAMMING OPPORTUNITY
West House is looking for 2-4 passionate, committed students to coordinate a Social Justice Event in honor of MLK Day!
MLK day is coming up, and we’re still looking for students to lead our Social Justice Programming Team for MLK day!
Whatever the format of the event (art installation, small group discussions, poster sessions, plays, spoken word, dance, debate, or all of the above), the program should
- Focus on social justice (in all its many forms and formats)
- Be primarily student-produced
- Be interactive and experiential in some way
Social justice Program Teams will be honored at a celebration dinner with noted Social Justice Advocate and senior administrators who will recognize the programs
– House participation rate
– Intellectual sophistication
– Creativity
– Impact on furthering social justice
The funding available is $1,000 per House so there are plenty of resources to make you vision a reality!
Please send your ideas to Ryan.C.Hickox@dartmouth.edu and Darby.L.Wiggins@dartmouth.edu
