The human rights club Amnesty International will host its next meeting on Jan. 20 at 3:15 p.m. in Room C128. According to Jennifer Davis, sponsor and art department chairperson, the club usually meets every Gold Wednesday.
At its last meeting, the club discussed the write-a-thon it completed in December and prepared to mail all the letters. “It was quite successful and we were pleased with our student body support,” Davis said.
According to Tim Chai, vice president and senior, the club voted to start a campaign on business rights, specifically on the Shell Oil Company.
According to Davis, the club will also start making worry dolls at the next meeting and plan the Night of Rights dance for spring. By Steven Chen <stevenchen@hilite.org>
