Dr. Karam, Dr. Salah, Dr. Gasteyer, and Dr. Hourani are facilitating a focus group where MENA students can express their experiences, concerns, and life as a MENA student at MSU. We aim to collect basic demographic data on these groups, and to understand their place, roles and experiences on campus. Particular attention will be paid to their understanding of their own identities (identification) and to their experience of having identities ascribed to them (ethnic or racial prejudices).
The focus group will take place on Tuesday, April 16th 5:00-6:30 pm at 153 Phillips Hall
(Abbot Seminar Room) from 5-6:30pm followed by dinner.
