Now he says he is cutting off military relations with the U.S. and has welcomed new relations with China.

Additional support provided by the Center for Global Studies, Henry M. Jackson School

PUB Quiet Dining Room (9208), Thurs., Oct. 27: 12:30-1:30 p.m.
zombies
Since 2001, zombies have become more popular than ever.  Why? Zombies tap into historic narratives about Arabs, Muslims, and East Asians. Symbolizing the racial and socioeconomic “Other,” zombies are infused with Orientalist qualities. But, some zombie stories play with and resist these Orientalist ideas — and so can we.

In Their Shoes: Understanding Domestic Violence, PUB 9208
Wed., Oct. 26: 12:30-1:30 p.m.

The Counseling Center will facilitate an interactive, scenario-based training where participants move, think, and experience the lives of people impacted by domestic violence.

Participants will make choices about their character’s relationships and move through the scenario by reading about interactions with their partner, family, friends, counselors, law enforcement, and others.

The development of this training was funded by the parents of Dayna Fure – murdered by her ex-boyfriend on May 24, 2004, just before she was to graduate from Stanwood High School – to invest in the lives of others and to turn their grief into action.

WEAR PURPLE – the color of Domestic Violence Awareness Month – during the month of October and use this as a way to tell others why ending domestic violence is important to you.

Questions? Contact Sheryl Copeland at scopeland@shoreline.edu or 206.533.6712.

Tues., Oct. 25: 12:30-1:30 p.m.
farming.jpg
Nicholas Begley, Graduate Student, University of Washington – Bothell
(SCC grad, ’14)

Everyday images of agricultural production commonly depict barns, farm animals, irrigation equipment, and of course, big fields. These traditional interpretations continue to dominate our perception of agriculture because of their historical and cultural foundations. However, as consumer demand for locally grown produce rises, so does awareness about the impacts of climate change on food security. Alternative methods like hydroponics, aeroponics, and aquaponics could be a solution to meet the needs of rising populations. Indoor farming is a more sustainable growing option that could mitigate the impacts of climate change, while providing healthy food options to urban and rural food deserts. The social and ethical issues of equal access to food and the cultural perceptions of agriculture will continue to change as new technologies arise.

Urinetown: The Musical, Main Campus Theater (1600 bldg.)
Fri., Oct. 14: 7:30 p.m.
Sat., Oct. 15: 7:30 p.m.
Sun., Oct. 16: 3 p.m.
Presented by Shoreline Community College and the Musical and Opera Program, this production is made possibly by the generous support of the Student Leadership Center.

Winner of three Tony Awards, three Outer Critic’s Circle Awards, two Lucille Lortel Awards, and two Obie Awards, Urinetown is a hilarious musical satire of the legal system, capitalism, social irresponsibility, populism, bureaucracy, corporate mismanagement, municipal politics and musical theatre itself! Hilariously funny and touchingly honest, Urinetown provides a fresh perspective of one of America’s greatest art forms.

In a Gotham-like city, a terrible water shortage, caused by a 20-year drought, has led to a government-enforced ban on private toilets. The citizens must use public amenities, regulated by a single malevolent company that profits by charging admission for one of humanity’s most basic needs. Amid the people, a hero decides he’s had enough, and plans a revolution to lead them all to freedom!

Inspired by the works of Bertolt Brecht and Kurt Weill, Urinetown is an irreverently humorous satire in which no one is safe from scrutiny. Praised for reinvigorating the very notion of what a musical could be, Urinetown catapults the “comedic romp” into the new millennium with its outrageous perspective, wickedly modern wit, and sustained ability to produce gales of unbridled laughter.
