Gun Violence in Philadelphia and the College Classroom - Diversity Certificate Program

Presenter: Marissa Johnson and Invited Panelists
Description: What is a professor to do when a student's loved one is murdered during the semester? What do students who have been impacted by gun violence need from their college community? How can CCP be an environment that recognizes the ongoing epidemic of violence and serves as a catalyst for healing and possibly even change? This panel discussion featuring faculty, student and expert voices will focus on Philadelphia's gun violence epidemic and how the ramifications impact CCP students and their families. This discussion will include information on applicable resources available at the College, in Philadelphia, and online.
