N17 : Occupy Teach-in @ University of Delaware
Yesterday, November 17th, marked the two month anniversary of the Occupy Wall Street movement. The previous day, November 16th, saw the Occupy Wall Street March On Washington pass through Newark, Delaware (University of Delaware).
Inspired by the anniversary, the march, and the call for a Student Week of Action, my class and the art classes of three of my colleagues at the University of Delaware met in the Studio Arts Building’s 1st floor critique space to have an broad and informal dialogue about the movement, education, and the future. We used two projectors to display live streams from TheOther99, CNN, and occupystream.com and provided a forum for everyone involved to ask questions and express their opinion.
A big thank you to fellow graduate students Joey Grimm, Alex Fogt, and Cory Bluemling and faculty member Abby Donovan for helping to organize and facilitate this event.
