These two pieces could provide ideas for crafting storytelling that works for both individual conversations and institutional narrative.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">Alternative Dispute Resolution:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>I have begun researching Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) and will continue to look into this method. I first heard about this mediation from Nora Cullen, who is the head of the Judicial Board. We had been discussing potential changes to the Code of Conduct to specifically include acts of cultural appropriation. According to her, the administration is already in the process of forming an ADR group to address future cultural appropriation incidents. In her opinion, this method was preferable to punitive policies. There is some literature about the practice at other colleges, and I want to learn more about the benefits \/ drawbacks. I am still unsure who exactly can be involved in these sessions and how effective they are for creating sustainable behavior change.<\/li>\n<li>Speaking of behavior change, I hope to learn more about the Sailing Team and their own methods of collective memory and education. I have spoken to a senior on the team in the past, but it would be interesting to discuss the team culture with a first-year member as well.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&#8211;&gt;\u00a0 I am still confused about the difference between dispute resolution and restorative practices. I want to dive deeper into the nuances in the next week:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>This article highlights that facilitation, narrative, and context must include the experiences of people of color in Restorative Practices programs:\u00a0https:\/\/www.naspa.org\/constituent-groups\/posts\/3-things-to-consider-about-restorative-practices-in-higher-education<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&#8211;&gt; Again, something to return to next week when discussing storytelling \/ collective narrative and memory<\/p>\n<p>General Updates:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>I spoke with Safiya Osei about her article in the Orient and her own perspective on these events. She expressed frustration about the new VP of Diversity Michael Reed, who came to a BSG meeting. He is apparently out-of-touch with current student experiences and relies on &#8220;out of date&#8221; ideas, according to Safiya.<\/li>\n<li>The recent events for Trans Visibility (including a panel and Genderbread making) reminded me of how effective institutional support can be in making behavioral change. It still blows my mind how students go lengths to respect pronoun preference and name changes and educate themselves on gender, while few students try to educate themselves on race. The 24 College resource model could inspire new programming ideas for future semesters.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>For next time:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Storytelling in protest<\/li>\n<li>ADR vs. RP<\/li>\n<li>Initial interview questions<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Data Collected: Greene, Theodore. \u00a0&#8220;Fighting the Hand That Feeds Them: Institutionalization and the Contemporary Student Movement.&#8221; Masters Thesis, Northwestern University, 2008.
