Date and Time

Description
DEM 101 is a series of bi-weekly co-curricular lectures, panel discussions and workshops that will focus on themes of democratic values, systems, and structures. We welcome faculty, staff, and students from all disciplines to present on topics relevant to democratic participation, founding documents, social movements, the idea of the commons, student civic development and participation, the role of journalism and media in a democracy, “fake news”, how to organize for social change, and more!
All Fall 2018 events will be held in the Mary Idema Pew Library Multipurpose Room on Wednesdays at 6pm.
All events are LIB 100/201 approved and will have pizza provided.
On September 12th we will watch and discuss "American Creed", PBS documentary film about the values that hold us together as Americans - and what happens when those values come in to question.
