Mid-week Movie

PAY IT FORWARD

Welcome back dear students!

I hope you had a great week off. To keep you in the relaxed and social mode, please join us and meet with fellow future teachers at our free Movie & Pizza this Wed. 3/11 at noon.

Where: President's Dining Rm. in Bldg 19. Go down the hall next to the bookstore. Make another right on the next hall (you will see the Dean's office to your left). Look for our sign.

We will be watching "Pay It Forward," a story that shows what a great impact someone's idea can have on others. In this case, the idea comes from a junior high student for his social studies project.

You will love this movie!
See you there!

Explore your hidden biases

Last Friday, some of the Title V Co-op staff were able to attend a workshop focused on the Language of Inclusion. The first workshop focused on overcoming frontstage and backstage racism in our own lives and the people around us. A second workshop focused on identifying our own biases, most of which are unconcious.

The results were very revealing! Knowing our own biases helps us realize how our words and actions can affect individuals, even without realizing it. Title V Co-op wants to share those tests with you so that you may have the opportunity to realize your hidden biases.

Just click on the link below

Hidden Biases

Select the test you wish to take. Then click on "Click Here to Begin," then "Continue," and finally, "I am ready to begin."

Just follow the instructions and see what the test says!!! Good luck, we hope this helps you uncover your HIDDEN BIASES :)
