The Diversity Committee at Hope International University is hosting an exciting diversity awareness event on Thursday, October 19, 2006, in the Pacific Auditorium. Jane Elliott, renowned diversity expert, will deliver a presentation addressing such issues as racism, ageism, homophobia, and ethnocentrism.
Elliott is best known for her famous Blue Eyes/Brown Eyes experiment that she conducted in her elementary school classroom during the Civil Rights Movement in the 1960s. This provocative experiment powerfully demonstrated the devastating effect of hidden prejudices. To learn more, please visit www.janeelliott.com.
