Mark Fisher from the Rock Ethics Institute and Sam Loewner LAUC President join Associate Dean Long and Jillian Balay for the fourth episode of LAUS Radio.
In Episode 4, Mark discusses the Rock Ethics Institute’s new social media campaign. In particular, he shares how The Rock is hoping to engage the undergraduate student body with the launch of their new Speak Up blog. He encourages students to join discussions concerning a wide range of ethical questions and debates. The group talks about how social media might help to generate provocative and informative conversations related to these topics.
Also, Sam Loewner gives us a recap of THON 2010. Specifically, he talks about this year’s fundraising results and reveals how LAUC dancers Chrissy Boggs and Lauren Perrotti managed the 46 hours of dancing.
Lastly, Jillian Balay thanks all those who helped to support last week’s very successful United Way Book Sale. She also reminds listeners of a few important announcements, including Summer 2010 CLA online courses and the launch of LAUS’ new The Education Abroad Experience blog.
