Take Back Education

As I do not agree with anyone holding education and information hostage for only an elite few to have, I’ll be posting invites to events from the VCU Graduate School. By posting these events, seminars, or talks, this does not mean that I endorse nor support the topic of the event. However, I do the support the ability for everyone in our society to be able to access information, no matter their formal education level. I call this “Take Back Education” because we are taking knowledge into our own hands and making it available to all.

Second and third on the Take Back Education agenda:

Spring Short Courses 2012 
Enjoy fun-filled courses that inspire your creativity!   These classes are currently available. 

January 30, Wheel Throwing, 4:30 pm- 6:30 pm Visual Arts Center of Richmond, 1812 W. Main St. 
February 8, Latin Dance, 5- 7 pm, Larrick Student Center, Court End Ballroom 
February 22, Ballroom Dancing, 5-7 pm, Larrick Student Center, Court End Ballroom

MCV Campus Film Series 
February 8, Unnatural Causes: Is Inequality Making Us Sick?  In Sickness and in Wealth 
What connections exist between healthy bodies, healthy bank accounts and skin color?  Follow four individuals from different walks of life to see how their position in society, shaped by social policies and public priorities, affects their health. 
Location: Hunton Student Center, TML Learning Center 
110 E. Broad St., 2nd fl. 
Noon- 1:00 pm 
Register Online at: www.library.vcu.edu/events

From the email it is unclear if there is an attendance policy, but I would assume that would be mentioned if there were. You may be able to utilize the contact info above if you are not a VCU student and would like to double check.

Should definitely check out Garfield Minus Garfield. It’s probably the most creative thing I’ve seen in awhile, and all it involves is subtraction. Pretty brilliant.

Garfield Minus Garfield is a site dedicated to removing Garfield from the Garfield comic strips in order to reveal the existential angst of a certain young Mr. Jon Arbuckle. It is a journey deep into the mind of an isolated young everyman as he fights a losing battle against loneliness and depression in a quiet American suburb. 
Check it out. It’s a pretty interesting take on the comic.
