Campus Organization/Semester Research Project Progress Report

I am still working with STAND to brainstorm ideas for my project. I am leaning toward researching their methods for getting their information about genocide out to the public, and how people accept/reject their information and why. STAND recently held a campus event that had a short video and a discussion afterward, and I'm corresponding with the president of STAND to see how the event went. I was not able to go. The group won't meet until March 1st, so I've been contacting her via email. I'm also doing my own research about the genocide in Darfur so I will be able to more thoroughly help the group get their information out to the public more effectively.

    Hi Rachel,

    I have even seen public service announcements about Darfur on television. I wonder if other students have seen these, and what reaction they have to them.

    In attempting to find ways to communicate with the public about genocide, you might also want to contact the Center for Holocaust and Genocide Education. They are also located in the Miller Center Library.

    This background research will help you formulate your research question.

    Please let me know if you have further questions!

    Sincerely,
    R. Wexelbaum
