Students in several RWC classes have experienced a unique workshop called “Posters 4 Peace.” Dr. Steve Sunderland, Professor of Social Work, Clifton Campus, conducts workshops in which the participants express their feelings about peace. Using simple pieces of cardboard and a variety of colored markers, students illustrate, in whatever fashion they choose, their feelings about peace. After the posters are complete, participants have the opportunity to discuss their feelings with the group. Many of the discussions have reportedly resulted in moments of learning from each other.
The Posters 4 Peace workshops have been conducted in Dr. Barbara McMasters Psychology III class, Dr. John McNay’s American Issues & Problems class, and in Dr. Grace Auyang’s War and Peace and Introduction to Sociology classes. The posters are now on display in the Langsam and Bledgen Libraries on the Clifton Campus.
