Kent State University Hosts Third Annual Oxfam Social Issues Banquet

Kent State University’s Office of Experiential Education and Civic Engagement will host the third annual Oxfam Social Issues Banquet that is open to faculty, staff, students and members of the community on Wednesday, Nov. 7, from 11:30 a.m. – 2 p.m. in the Kent Student Center Ballroom.
The Oxfam Social Issues Banquet will also involve a hunger simulation in which guests will receive a meal ticket representing a socio-economic class that will essentially determine the type of meal served and the seating arrangement (floor, chair, or chair and table). Reflective discussions will leave guests with a new perspective and understanding of the challenges created daily by world hunger. The hunger simulation will be followed by an engaging panel discussion. Register for the event here: http://reg.abcsignup.com/reg/event_page.aspx?ek=0055-0003-D963DE09A8674794A48B85ABD68D9C64.
