The Finish Line is Near

As Prof. Root commented on having some logistic problems, they weren't anything we couldn't handle. At first we had nicely organized the films to be presented thematically, but as already noted, time conflicts didn't allow us to do that in every time slot available. So what we tried to do was set up movies that correspond with the panel discussions going on in the time section before or after. For example, if the panel sessions focused on Environmental Justice during one time slot, then we tried to accommodate films following the Environmental Justice theme before or after the panel discussion, so those who were interested in this subject would have the opportunity to attend both the panel and the film. Hopefully, others will agree with our technique and take advantage of being a part of this Conference all day long. After distributing the films to their corresponding times, we chose which ones were of our personal interests in order to be able to attend all of these events to continue blogging throughout the conference. Now the only thing left to do is promote the events around campus so we can bring in a large student audience :D
