FRIDAY, MAY 13

It has been more than ten years since the Columbine tragedy, and in the past
six years online outlets such as Facebook have reconfigured social interaction.
Bullying is no longer a "teenage problem:" workplace bullying, cyberbullying,
and race-based bullying are prevalent even among adults.

Join Tara Michener, local children's book author, Dr. Elizabeth Barton,
Associate Director of the Center for Peace and Conflict, and Glen Stutzky,
School of Social Work at MSU, as they explore the signs, symptoms, and
potential solutions for the bullying epidemic.

Contact Rebecca at 248.553.2400, ext. 13
for more information.

Continuing education units (SB-CEUs) are available
for educators who attend (small additional fee).

Normal museum admission rates will apply.
