Environmental Film Series

Hey All,

It’s El, my Energy and the Environment professor is welcoming the student body to a film series focused on the environmental crises. A new film will be shown each Friday in ECS 105 and it’s completely free. I’m especially interested in Iraq for Sale: The War Profiteers which will screen Friday, November 9th at 2:00pm.

* Friday, November 2 @ 2:00 pm A Crude Awakening: The Oil Crash (Basil Gilpe, 2006)

* Friday, November 9 @ 2:00 pm Iraq for Sale (Robert Greenwald, 2007)

* Friday, November 30 @ 2:00 pm The China Syndrome (Jane Fonda, Jack Lemmon, 1999)

* Friday, December 7 @ 2:00 pm The Inconvenient Truth (Al Gore, 2006)

* Friday, December 14 @ 2:00 pm Guns, Germ, and Steel (Jared Diamond, 2006)

We are F.O.R.C.E. - Feminist Organization Reclaiming Consciousness and Equality. Our purpose is to bring dialogue to stimulate an understanding of feminisms by raising consciousness of women's issues, which include but are not limited to personal experience, agency, and the understanding of women's differences and similarities. In order to reach these goals we plan to educate and inform the campus community through activities and workshops. Lastly, F.O.R.C.E. will support the WRC, other campus organizations, and various departments that believe in the enrichment of women's lives.
