At the beginning of this semester, I thought I had the worst Sociology & Anthropology senior seminar course. We did not even have a syllabus until a couple of weeks ago. The readings for class seemed randomly selected based on the most recent books on the economy, environment, health care, and race. It was a drag to go to class, and even worse to be stuck in class for 55 minutes every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Wow. I never knew this would happen to me at St. Olaf College.
On the other hand.....
The reason why this is the best class ever:
Our professor gave us full autonomy in designing any kind of project we want.
At first, we all wanted to create a protest. We wanted to do something radical about racism on campus. After much discussion and reconstruction of our ideas, we have decided to create the Race Matters campaign.
It has been a rewarding experience! I'm so proud of my colleagues and I for being so passionate about addressing racism on campus!
Please join us for the Panel Discussion on Monday April 15th 7pm in the Black and Gold Ballroom!

The posters and events are generating interest and concern. I'm curious. How will you measure the success of your campaign? Is that part of your project, too?
