To follow on from that. . .
BARONESS FLOELLA BENJAMIN, OBE TALK
As you may already be aware, we're hosting a talk from Baroness Floella Benjamin, Chancellor of Exeter University, tomorrow (5th October 2013) in the Alumni Auditorium. The talk starts at 2pm prompt and the doors open at 1:30pm. The Baroness provides an informal talk and network detailing her successes and challenges as a woman of power.
Motivating & inspiring for all! Not to be missed!
DEBATE
In addition to celebrating Black History Month, we are holding an interactive debate and the topic of the debate will be "Can discrimination ever be positive?" In order to pull this off we need four volunteers who would be willing to begin the debate for both sides. Basically, we need 2 people to represent both sides of the debate and lead the discussion with opening arguments. This is your chance to express your opinions and we encourage you to bring your friends along or anyone who has an interest in debating as well.
The 4 spaces will be allocated on a first come first serve basis so the first 4 people who reply to this email expressing an interest in getting one of the spots will get them. Also please specify which side you would like to represent in your email. This event would be held on the 11th October 2013. More details coming soon...DEBATE
