Action Plan Presentations

I would just like to mention that I was thoroughly impressed with everyone's Action Plan presentations. Everyone had outstanding ideas and I enjoyed every single one of them. I think reading Tatum's novel for Titan Orientation is an excellent idea and will have a huge impact on campus.

Having more multi-cultural nights that are more heavily advertised is a good idea as well. I know I hear about them on campus but am never really sure what it is or who goes to it, so it would be interesting to have new experiences such as that.

The "Not in Our School" plan was very creative and very applicable especially after watching the video last week. I know in my homeroom in high school we just sat there for announcements and normally had at least 10 minutes to just sit and do nothing, so engaging in dialogue about diversity and doing fun activities is a great idea. It starts education at an earlier age, of which I mentioned should be done in my Affirmative Action blog. It is a developmental program that increases knowledge throughout the high school years. If the activities given can keep students interested, engaged, and postive about the topic it would really have a significant impact, including increasing education about the issue.

I highly anticipate to see what comes out of MLK day next year. I think it is a great idea. I know I have complained in the past that public universities get the day off and we do not, but if we go to class anyways, doing activities around class or in classes would be neat.

I walk past the Davidson room every day on my way from Pfeiffer to Saga. I always read the little facts that people post and find it a warm and welcoming hallway to walk through when it is decorated. Having a "moving walkway" concept education people with statistics would be something new and enjoyable for me, in my opinion.

I look forward to seeing if any action plans go through, along with developing any videos from my action plan to help other action plans be implemented :)
