Join us for “Turning points in life for a young professional,” a talk by Stephen Murphy on Wed., April 12 from 11:30 a.m. – 12:30 p.m. in the PUB 9208.
University of Washington grad (1966), Stephen Murphy traveled east to Harvard Business School, where he faced his first turning point. Next, he struggled through Vietnam and Pacific typhoons, eventually finding his way to Columbia Business School and onward to Brazil. Later, he lands positions in both Bush administrations. In between, and since, he has had a successful career as an advisor to businesses on both sides of the U.S./Latin American border(s). To find out more about Steve’s “turning points of life,” on many roads both familiar and less traveled, join us. This is a frank and personal discussion of success, failure, and lessons learned by a Seattle boy who became a global wanderer.

Join Dr. Hamako as he facilitates a screening of “Do Not Resist,” a film that offers a stunning look at the current state of policing in America and a glimpse into the future. This film is an urgent and powerful exploration of the rapid militarization of the police in the United States.

He completed his doctorate in Social Justice Education at the University of Massachusetts Amherst and worked as the Program Coordinator for Institutional Diversity & Equity at Smith College in Northampton, Massachusetts.

We invite you to join us for our April event this Mon., April 10 in the PUB 9208 from 1-3 p.m. The theme for April is *Earth Appreciation*!
This month’s featured faculty speaker is Chip Dodd. The event will feature several student speeches on environmental topics as well as a presentation by officers of the Shoreline Environmental Club.
S^3 Shoreline Students Speak is a series of community-oriented and student-led awareness events. Each month will coincide with a theme that will help set the tone for a central discussion. The goal is to have many volunteers speak and express their thoughts so that we can all gain new perspectives and learn from each other through the use of all forms of communication. The structure is similar to an open mic and incorporates a call to action by encouraging community involvement related to the monthly theme. Get curious; connect with your community by sharing your experience and become involved!
Our upcoming event topics include Mental Health Awareness in May and Mentor Appreciation in June. If you have a special interest in these topic(s) and would like to submit a presentation proposal OR if you run or are a member of a club that might want to co-sponsor one of these events, contact the Public Speaking Leadership Club at http://facebook.com/shorelineccpslc.
