extra Credit Opportunities
Truman Today this week brings several opportunities for extra credit.
As in the past: a) attend; b) write up a paragraph or two, summarizing "who / what / where / when" and c) engage your brain and mine: give an observation or two, ask a question or two, reflect.
1. “Puncturing Surfaces: An Examination of the Creative Process”
Aaron Fine, associate professor of art, will present this forum.
7 p.m.
March 2
Student Union Building Alumni Room
Fine will focus on the process of creating a body of work, as well as the connections between his creative research and the work of other artists at various points in history. Specifically, he will focus on the theme of “surfaces” in his paintings to facilitate a discussion of how the artist works and how that relates to a cultural context.
A reception will follow and be accompanied by an exhibition of Fine’s artwork.
2. Marc Becker (Soc Sci) will lead the March 2nd Global Issues session on the World Social Forum. The World Social Forum is a yearly meeting of activists who debate alternatives to globalization under the slogan “another world is possible.” Join us at 7:00 pm Thursday in Violette Hall 1000.
[this is a change: Due to unforeseen military responsibilities that have taken him out of town, Major Steve Konecny (Mil Sci) will be unable to present the Global Issues Colloquium session on March 2. This presentation on “The U.S. Army’s Transformational Imperative” has been tentatively rescheduled for April 6.]
3. Truman’s Mock Trial team will be having an exhibition from 6-8 p.m., March 3, in the SUB Activities Room. Admission is free, and refreshments will be provided. Spectators will be asked to be members of the jury. For more information, contact Bryan Gelecki at 402.578.2349.
