BUGI Latest Update

[Amy Winzer]

Hey BUGIs!

Just another reminder about this event. I'd really like it if the few of you who expressed interest (and hopefully even more of you!) could come out to this event tomorrow. At our dinner, we discussed how unknown BUGI is on compus and how it's not really advertised anywhere, so this is a perfect opportunity to get the word out to other students who might eventually be interested in participating. Come prepared to talk about the program and your experience with it.  I'm going to try to throw together a poster or something for us.. and if miraculously anyone else is interested in helping with that or supplying pictures or anything, please let me know.

ALSO, for the few of you who still haven't turned in your mid-semester activity log, please try to make it to this event to hand it in to me. I promise I won't bite you.  Call me if you need to meet up with me to turn it in some other time.

There are only two weeks left in the semester. Completed activities logs and semester reflections are due soon!

What's up BUGIs? Any updates from the field?  Would anyone be interested in putting together another dinner soon?

Yours,
Amy

Generation Waking Up

Wake Up. Stand Up. Build Up.

Hey folks!

You're invited to a special event called Generation Waking Up (The WakeUp for short). The WakeUp is a 3-hour multi-media, interactive, peer-led workshop that explores the ways in which we, as students, can confront our current social and environmental challenges.

Through live music, spoken word, media, interactive group exercises, and dialogue, the Wake Up takes participants through a transformative exploration of the critical questions facing students and society today:

1) Who Are We? Who are we as individuals and as a generation? What makes us unique and powerful?

2) Where Are We? What are the current issues threatening our modern world?

3) What Has to Change? What has to change in order to create a thriving, just, sustainable world?

4) What Do We Do Now? What projects and movements already exist? What is actually possible for the future? And what do we have to contribute to this Movement as individuals and as a generation?

 

The WakeUp is sponsored by a variety of UC Berkeley student groups, including Bridges, CalCorps, ASUC, and others. We're excited to see you there!
