in EN C-112  

 

 Southern Connecticut State University presents:

An evening of theater with the Forum Theater Troup from the Migrant Family Support Center (CAMFAMI). The women who make up the Forum Theater Troupe are not professional actors. They are citizens of a centuries­old freedom struggle: the struggle for self ­determination, justice, and equality for woman and families.  The performers use Forum Theater as a tool to raise awareness and give voice and illustration to the conditions of oppression that women experience in Mexico, either as wives of abusive husbands, wives of migrants in the U.S., or migrants themselves.

· Sueños Perdidos 

· Mariposa Viajera 

(Both will be performed in Spanish with English subtitles)

Thanks for everybody who joined the show and of course thanks to all the actors and people who helped doing it! :)

 

 

2011-2012 Winter Gathering

Every year, the Office of International Education celebrates the end of each semester with a gathering of the staff and exchange students from across the globe.  This year's theme was "Soul Food," a potluck style dinner where everyone brought one comfort food from their home country. We had authentic German potato leek soup, potato salad and goulash, Italian lasagna, empanadas, enchiladas, and tiramisu. It is one of the many highlights of the academic year.
