Tour of Community Sites, Projects and Partnerships
| Premester week Instructor: Young, et al 3-5 hours Course Goals With the sub-theme, Seeing is Believing, a challenge to the Guilford College campus community to “get on the bus” and for individuals to see themselves the changing neighborhoods and communities living just minutes from the college. By the end of the tour, participants will understand how the region’s demographic changes challenge assumptions about how the College interprets globalism, localism, diversity, and its core values. Outline Slide show overview Bus tour will include stops and discussion Lunch in downtown Center City Park Feedback and reflection Start becoming a good observer So take photos with your buddy (yeah, buddy up) and write down (you must, you won’t be able to identify what you’ve seen from memory alone) the location, site name, etc. Send me the photos via email or dropbox. Or you can come to the Bonner Center and download onto one of the office hard drives. Don’t forget to save your documentation. We’ll use these images to construct a group slide show and online tour.
