Class schedule: The class will officially meet every 4:30-5:30 every Tuesday. The purpose of the class will be, hopefully, to keep the entire class up to date on what the different focus groups within the class are doing and other logistical sorts of things, not necessarily to do work. This means that most of our Periclean work will be out of class time, so we decided that it\u2019s unnecessary to make a second meeting time since those who can\u2019t meet on Tuesday will still be so involved in their focus group. We haven\u2019t figured out the specific focus groups yet.<\/p>\n
General updates:
\n-a student wants to come in and talk with us about her research on human trafficking in NC (Jessica Elizando….sp? sorry if I butchered that)
\n-Dr. Arcaro has possible ideas for us and wants to come in and talk with us
\n-possible partnership with an Elon student\u2019s (Will Hemminger) family\u2019s private charity in Haiti?<\/p>\n
Tasks for the semester:
\n1. Identify partners both in Haiti and locally (what do they do? what do we have to offer them?)
\n2. Define work groups\/assignments
\n(fundraising)
\n3. Create plan for next two years. (visioning, project goal\/objectives, who can travel?)
\n4. 2016\u2019s induction<\/p>\n
Focus groups: (subgroups, main chairperson<\/strong>)<\/p>\n FUNDRAISING PR For those of you who weren\u2019t in class, we are sending out a google doc to sign up for a group.<\/p>\n Conversational Creole: There is a person interesting in teaching Creole for 30-40 minutes each class. Dr. Warner is working on getting the ball rolling! Implications: class time for logistics will be shrunk, and class time may be extended. But our effort shows a lot about our commitment, and will also be very helpful for if (i mean, when) we go to Haiti. Perhaps we will get networking opportunities from it!<\/p>\n Summarizing last semester\u2019s work to recollect and move forward: A Word to the Wise from Dr. Warner: No class next Tuesday, but go to the Hunger Summit!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Class schedule: The class will officially meet every 4:30-5:30 every Tuesday.

\n-We won\u2019t know the mistakes we\u2019ll make or where we\u2019re headed until we actually get there.
\n-Simples things can cause major ramifications. Human trafficking is a very serious and very sensitive topic, and we have to be careful about we proceed. People may respond in negative and maybe even dangerous ways.
\n-This is OUR Periclean class!<\/p>\n
