HIGHLAND HEIGHTS -- Speakers and discussion groups will continue President Clinton's conversations on race next week at Northern Kentucky University. Organized by 20 student groups and university departments, the events are geared to continuing talks among people from different backgrounds, spokesman Rick Meyers said.
Cheryl Nunez, director of the Office of Affirmative Action, said the topic is one to consider all year.
"We had the dialogue on art and race last week, and this is nice because it allows us to follow up on the energy that generated," Mrs. Nunez said.
Students Together Against Racism is promoting the discussions. Discussions begin at noon on Monday in the Business-Education-Psychology Building with a presentation on environmental justice by NKU students D.J. Carter and Anna Weaver.
Prince Brown Jr., sociology professor, will speak about the sociological implications of race at 2 p.m. on Tuesday in the Landrum Academic Center.
Clinton Hewan, political science professor, will address the politics of race at noon on Wednesday in the Landrum Academic Center.
A town hall meeting at 7 p.m. on Thursday in the Baptist Student Union will offer a chance for honest communication about race through a panel discussion and small group conversation.
Each event is open to the public. Registration is required for the town hall meeting.
For information call NKU at 572-6047.
