WE THE PLANET
Activism, Discussion and Music!
Sunday, 28 Sep 2003 at 8:00 pm – Stephens Auditorium - Admission Free
Musician Tracy Chapman, environmental activist and author Julia Butterfly Hill and sustainable agriculture activist Howard Lyman will be joined by local citizens for a dynamic discussion with audience members about the most pressing issues facing our planet, our country and communities. Following the discussion, Tracy Chapman will play a 30-minutes acoustic set. The panel is traveling the U.S. in a bus powered solely by vegetable oil and bio diesel fuel (non-petroleum).Women's Week 2003 and the Committee on Lectures welcome local groups to distribute information in the lobby during the event.
Stay for the entire event, including the brief question-and-answer session that follows the formal presentation. Most events run 75 minutes.
Sign-ins are after the event concludes. For lectures in the Memorial Union, go to the information desk in the Main Lounge. In other academic buildings, look for signage outside the auditorium.
Lecture Etiquette
