COM 330 - Telling the stories of the ignored and forgotten Instructor
Bailey
A recent Davidson College graduate largely avoided talking about a childhood friend for his first few years at Davidson because of shame. That childhood friend was given a 15-year-prison sentence around the time that student was being admitted to Davidson. But when he finally found the courage to tell the story through an independent project, it changed him, his friend, and those who didn’t know much about the criminal justice system. And it led to his friend’s release 12 years early. In this course, we will find the courage and develop the skills to tell the stories of the ignored and forgotten in your life, those you don’t know well, and those you should know.
