 * Name of Event:Striving Towards White Anti-Racism Teach In
 * Date of the event (best approximate possible):Early February
 * Projected Attendance: 100
 * Description of Event:STWAR would like to host a teach in providing the basic terms and ideas that inform STWAR's understanding of racism. We would like to provide the basic information for students to gain insight into the way racism and white privilege function on personal, institutional, and cultural levels. We feel that by hosting a teach in early in the semester STWAR will be able to be a visible, transparent presence on campus and can make connections with the community or other students seeking to join the group.
