CME provides a number of opportunities for everyone at DU to move beyond a single story!

The Fall 2011 First Year Students participated in the "Life Outside The Classroom" workshop during Discoveries (orientation) week, where we watched an excerpt of a speech by Nigerian novelist, Chimamanda Adichie. Her full speech, The Danger of a Single Story, can be viewed at the TedTalks website. 

We think it's a great piece for everyone to reflect on, and invite you to view it and consider how you might engage the many stories our DU community has to offer, including through connections offered by CME.

We are currently redeveloping our programs and services menu for DU students. Information on existing opportunities to share and learn can be accessed through the "Programs" menu above, our Educational Programs and Service webpage, and the "Upcoming Events" link at left.

Additionally, we have a list of the identity, diversity and social justice-related student organizations at DU. Attending these groups' events and getting yourself and your organizations involved in collaborative efforts are great ways to share your stories and expand your understanding of others'.
