SUMMARY:Dissent 101: The Place of Activism on Campus
DESCRIPTION:Universities have been integral to organization\, manifestation
  and dissent in society. From Martin Luther to Martin Luther King Jr.\, fr
 om Montreal to Hong Kong to Egypt\, powerful activist movements have been 
 born on university campuses. What role do professors and graduate students
  have in facilitating activism? Is it coincidental that activism and disse
 nt have a strong place on university campuses? Is there a skill set\, inte
 llectually or practically\, that gets moulded on campus? Can educators inc
 orporate activism into their research and teaching\, or will this only “
 politicize” the classroom and detract from intellectual responsibilities
 ? Building on his own experience in teaching an experiential learning cour
 se on protest and dissent\, Robert Huish discusses the importance of the u
 niversity to progressive social activism\, explores the ethical challenges
  that arise when lessons of the class go to the street\, and advocates tha
 t academics should work to bring more experiences of activism into the hea
 rt of university education.
