Forwarding from our friends in the CHID department:

We encourage you to register for CHID 496C (SLN 11950), a two-credit peer-facilitated focus group on student organizing at the UW and beyond. The course will be a community-building space for participants to share skills and stories around student activism. We hope to explore the dynamics of student organizing as a set of nested relationships, looking at the interactions within and between organizations and their connections  with the institutions in which they are embedded. part of this  conversation will happen through a series of panels with student activists whose perspectives will help us to engage these ideas in envisioning a student-powered food system through future collaborations between the uw farm and uw student food co-op. Students not involved in either project are welcome and encouraged to register—we hope this space will bring new ideas and strategies to the partnership.

Feel free to contact Amalia Tonsor (atonsor@gmail.com) with any questions and please spread the word!
