DECONSTRUCTION ZONE '06

DECONSTRUCTION ZONE '06

Hillel was an integral part of this unusual and creative program last
Spring that is being organized again under the leadership of Residence
Life.  It will again take place in the basement of Coffey Hall,
which is transformed into a "tunnel of oppression."  Please read the
description below.  Hillel is helping to coordinate the first information
session this Wednesday afternoon from 4-5 PM.  If you are interested in
participating and cannot come to that session, please e-mail Patti Ray at
pray@luc.edu and go to the other session, if that is possible.


"DECONSTRUCTION ZONE '06"

Discrimination*Hate*Violence*Ignorance*Oppression* - these are ugly words
and actions that exist in our society.  The "Deconstruction Zone" is a
student production created and performed by LUC students and staff.  It is
a diversity awareness project designed to fight ignorance and oppression
through education.  The participants physically move through a series of
sensory experiences/scenes pertaining to different kinds of oppression.
After traveling through the "Zone" in silence, a guided group discussion
is held to consider the impact of the "tour of oppression" and how it
relates to our community.

If you as an individual or part of an organization would like to
particpate in creating, performing in, or facilitating the "Deconstruction
Zone," there are two Information Sessions:

WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 8 4-5 PM - STUDENT LOUNGE, MUNDELEIN CENTER - 1ST FL.

WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 15 4-5 PM - MERTZ, WEST LOUNGE, 2ND FLOOR

We look forward to having you join us at one of these meetings and to your
participation in the "Deconstruction Zone."  The actual days of the
program will be April 24-26 from 5-9 PM each evening (times may vary
slightly).
