Alternative activism
Speaker to discuss environmental issues
The Student Environmental Alliance will host a training session entitled "Non-Violent Direct Action," a conference on how to take action against any issue at 6 p.m. Thursday in the Bovee University Center's Lake Michigan Room.
Brandon Knight will speak on behalf of Global Exchange, an organization that has been fighting for human rights for more than 20 years. "The training session will be providing tools for student organizations and activists to legally express their viewpoints," said Manistee junior Chris Venegas, an SEA member. "A lot of students are involved at CMU, hopefully they will take these tools back to their organizations and help voice their opinions." The event is open to the public. For more information, contact Venegas at veneg1cr@cmich.edu.
