White Racism and Anti-Racism Summer Reading Group

• What is racism, white supremacy, anti-racism?
  * Is there such a thing as a white anti-racist?
  * What would effective white anti-racist action look like?

Would you like to start or keep thinking about these questions over this summer? Join the summer reading group sponsored by White Women Confronting Racism. We’ll be reading and discussing one article every two weeks throughout the summer. The reading group will be open to all who identify as white.

Want to be a part of it?
Come to Kohlberg Coffee Bar, Tuesday May 5th at 8 PM.
We’ll be handing out packets with articles and discussing the format.

Please email Erika (eslayma1) or Sarah (sapt1) with questions or any articles or other media you’d like us to include.

That´s right, we´re still around for your late night reading week snacking needs.

I’m selling my bike, helmet, and lock for $100 (pn). I purchased it lightly used at the beginning of this year, but it was completely serviced and has worked as new this full year. I did not ride it much, so it’s still in excellent condition. If you don’t mind an 80s color theme, it’s a good deal.

Textbook Buyback will be held at the Bookstore on:

Thursday & Friday, May 7 & 8, 9am to 4 pm and,
Monday thru Friday, May 11–15, 9am to 4 pm

EARN CASH FOR THE SUMMER.
SELL US YOUR USED BOOKS.

The Bookstore will pay up to 50% of the new book price
providing the textbook has been requested by faculty for classroom use
and is needed to fill next term’s enrollment.
Our Wholesaler will pay up to 35% of the new book price
if the book is being used at other colleges.

Have a Great Summer!

Taller de paz is a project that will be conducted by swat students this coming summer in the the outskirts of Bogota, Colombia. The project will take on a summer camp format in which participants will learn the basics of digital photography and editing. They will use these skills to create a final project in the form of a digital story or some sort of photo portfolio. By providing these children with artistic mediums of digital technology and a safe space to use them, we hope to empower our participants to explore their environment in new ways and to have a voice to tell of what they find.

Weekday and Saturday Morning Shuttles, Movie Shuttles, and Target shuttles will all run through Sunday, May 10. That means that as of 9 PM on May 10, the Morning, Target, and Movie shuttle will stop running. Thanks.

I lost my cellphone in Parrish/ Kohlberg on Saturday evening bw 4:50–5:15pm. It is a black Nokia slider.

I lost my ID (“Karen Guan,” two holes punched, picture blurred past recognition) around Sharples, Lang, LPAC, Kohlberg, or Parrish. If you have it please let me know!!! Thanks-

I lost my blue ipod shuffle between 9:00 and 11:00 Friday morning either in the science center commons or in sci 101. The ipod is low on battery and the head phones are typical ipod headphones but the gray lining of the earpiece is nearly all off and the plastic is pealing at the base. If you find it, would you return it to me? thanks.

I lost my ipod nano video (the small squarish ones) in silver. it doesn’t really have a lot of music on it, just a whole bunch of podcasts, including some shakespeare ones. PLEASE return it if you find it. Thanks so much!

small, blue verizon flip phone
