Many people seek social and political change for a better world. How have CC students carried that aspiration forward to do good works after graduation?
For the Block 4 First Mondays, three CC alums will talk about their career paths and the varied ways in which they have sought to make the world better after leaving CC. Come to Kathryn Mohrman Theater on Monday, Nov. 18 from 11:15 a.m.-noon to hear what these alums have to say.
