Cross-Cultural Conference by Mitra L. '07
I’m going on a cross-cultural conference/retreat tomorrow. 2006 is the first year they’re holding this event, so I really have no idea what to expect, but here are some of the topics they are planning on covering:
History of Diversity@MIT 1861 to present
Cross-Cultural Communication and Conflict
Diversity Peer Education
Exploring Multiple Identities
Cross-cultural Ally Development
Roundtable discussions on topics of choice
Good luck, everyone!
I live in a place where culture plays a really important role.we are taught as a child to follow the c word.but most of us dont try to reach for our roots.A continuous conflict between these ideology and the western influence has left many of my generation confused.
