The fourth event in Northeastern’s year­long edu­ca­tional series on civic sus­tain­ability last Wednesday focused on sus­pect moti­va­tion, the impor­tance of resilience, and the role of social media.

Five accom­plished stu­dents reflected on the value of expe­ri­en­tial learning on Wednesday evening in the second event in a year­long edu­ca­tional series on civic sustainability.

In the first event in a year­long edu­ca­tional series on “civic sus­tain­ability,” North­eastern fac­ulty and admin­is­tra­tors encour­aged stu­dents to embrace their diver­sity across cul­ture, race, eth­nicity, and sexual orientation.

On Tuesday, North­eastern began Holo­caust Aware­ness Week with a moving break­fast event including campus leaders and Jewish studies scholars.
