Extracurricular Community

Last night I was having coffee with a friend, who is also a PC student, and chatting about all the amazing things going on outside of our little fish bowl of classes. Just in the past three days there have been a myriad of exciting events to attend. The President of the college, the wonderful Dan Garvey, facilitated a stimulating open forum on the meaning of "Social Change". How do we as an institution and as individuals lead a life devoted to evolving our world. Not only did it provide me with food for thought, but it was also a great example of how the Administration is very accessible to me and values my voice in the community.
Then last night there was a vibrant musical concert in Flagstaff which a group of students drove up too. For those of us who could not be out that late due to 8am classes(me), Yavapai college was hosting a panel discussion on the workings of the United Nations.
Yet another way to get involved with your world continues tonight when North Moench will lead a gathering of people through ways to become part of the Kenya Project. Prescott Colleges collaboration with the Massai people will hopefully be a ongoing project for years to come.
This is only a small sampling of events. Others range from Meditation groups to film screenings. You are never short of things to get involved with here at Prescott, only short on time.
My friend and I ended our evening wishing we had another four years to devote only to extracurricular projects. Wouldn't that be a perfect world.
