Creating a Healthy and New Generation of Equality - Multicultural Programs Day
About A Day of C.H.A.N.G.E.
A Day of C.H.A.N.G.E. provides ALL students with the opportunity to connect with Michigan's commitment to diversity. Join us at these events to celebrate and appreciate this central, long-term ethic at Michigan by bringing together the campus community in educational and social events.
Extravaganza for CHANGE
11:30pm - 3:30pm
Michigan League Concourse
Stop by campus and community organization tables and take part in activities that will help you learn how you can make CHANGE on campus and beyond.
Keynote Speaker Dr. Maura Cullen: In the spirit of CHANGE
10:00am - 12:00pm (Mendelssohn Theatre, Michigan League) OR
2:00pm - 4:00pm (Mendelssohn Theatre, Michigan League)
We are caught in times of political correctness, where "saying" the right things are worlds away from "doing" the right thing. Considered one of the most inclusive sessions on diversity, you will learn how the human spirit can build coalitions, not blame, with groups who never thought they had anything in common with one another.
