NDSU Students Stand UP!
Have you helped out, reached out, spoken up? Are you an NDSU student who has taken a stand to challenge hostile language, assisted a friend or stranger in an uncomfortable or potentially harmful situation? We want to hear your story! The Violence Prevention Educators are currently accepting personal accounts from NDSU students who make campus a better place. Submissions can be in a variety of formats: short video, essay, music, poetry, or art. Selected submissions will be appreciated and viewed by the NDSU community at an event on May 1, 2012 from 12 – 1 pm in the MU Hidatsa. All are invited to join the conversation. Submissions are due by April 19th, 2013 and can be dropped off at Memorial Union 250 or e-mailed to sarah.dodd@ndsu.edu
