All Popcorn Forum events will take place on the North Idaho College campus (except for the 10th Annual Human Rights Banquet) and are free (except for the Banquet) and open to the public. The organizers this year have provided a forum to “travel back in time to observe and discuss the thoughts, works, and contributions of great women and men in history” and hope you leave “better informed and equipped to understand, cope, and contribute to humankind’s search for a better world.” (See: Popcorn Forum Program: http://www.nic.edu/events/popcornforum/popcorn_forum_program.pdf) REQUIREMENTS: To earn one credit towards the certificate, students must register for the workshop credit PRIOR to attending the Popcorn Forum and email John Mihelich informing him of the student’s participation.

After attending, students are required to write a brief synopsis of each event attended AND a two-page (single-spaced) summary essay explaining what they learned and how the experience contributed to their diversity education.
