2. Announcement

TODAY!!
“Class Dialogues”
Meet in Kohlberg Coffee Bar
4 – 6pm

Come and have an honest discussion about socioeconomic class at Swarthmore. Because yes, class divides exist even in our little Swarthmore bubble (and for some, such divides are no where MORE evident than in this bubble).
Unfortunately, discussions like this just don’t happen every day.

The schedule is as follows:

4–4:45 PM
Simultaneous intra-class discussions (share your personal experiences with people from similar backgrounds). The groups will be divided as follows:
1) Working class/struggling class (CLOSED to those who self-identify)
2) Straddling class/multi class (OPEN to all)
3) Privileged class (CLOSED to those who self-identify)

5–6 PM
Cross-class dialogue for all participants, to promote honest and open communication across class divides.
Facilitated by Martin Warner, our beloved registrar!
**note – you DO NOT need to have attended the first session in order to attend the cross-class session – feel free to come to either or both!

Sponsored by Class Activists, Intercultural Center, Lang Center, Linguistics Department.

Questions? Email Rory @ rsykes1.
