Students can now sign up to receive SLI credit for the college's MLK Week Celebration January 23-28. This year's theme is "The Ultimate Weakness of Violence" which is a concept taken from King's last book, "Where Do We Go From Here: Chaos or Community?" Each session is worth one credit in the Leading in a Diverse World Track. As always, you need to sign up at least 48 hours in advance to receive credit. You also need to be a member of the SLI Portal in order to sign up for the event.
