Hey guys,



We hope you all have had a fun and relaxing Fall Break. For tomorrow, we are going to combine our meeting with Clarke Central High school's Peace Jam group. We will be writing letters about jailed journalists and talking with the students about life in general. The meeting will held at Little Italy at 6:00 PM. We look forward to seeing you all there!

Photo Exhibit: “Become a Citizen of the World”

“Become a Citizen of the World” Photo Exhibit to benefit Amnesty International:
So many of us in college have had the chance to visit other parts of the world. In those travels, we gain sensitivity to the diversity and richness of humanity. With that view of the world, Amnesty International is hosting a photo exhibit to showcase people around the world. Amnesty International is an organization dedicated to the fighting injustices globally. We hope that with this exhibit to excite people about cultures everywhere and encourage people to join the movement of promoting peace and justice. We will be selling the pictures on a donation basis to raise money for Amnesty International and their campaigns.


If you have photos from around the world that you would like to donate, please turn them into Memorial Hall (the Amnesty mailbox) or Moore College 216 by November 9th. You could also bring the pictures to our meeting tonight at Little Italy or our meeting next week in Journalism. If you feel inspired to mount or frame them however you think best displays them, feel free! The idea is to have pictures of the people in other countries (not just you!), so turn in pictures that say something about the culture you visited. Please write the country on the back of the photo. Thanks!
