\u201cI am proud of the work that has been accomplished this year, the robust programming that has been integrated into campus life, and individual students that have led the charge,\u201d Associate Professor of Education and Interim Director of CGUP, Shannon Haley-Mize remarked. \u201cI am honored to work so closely with a campus community, led by students, that are actively working to further peacebuilding at Etown. I am confident that this grassroots work will have ripple effects in a way that moves us closer to a more peaceful and just world.\u201d<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
