QLHE: Students Speak

Friends Association for Higher Education’s Quaker Leadings in Higher Education series presented:

Students Speak: The Spiritual and Moral Basis for Valiant Accountability on our Campuses

Tuesday, April 30, 2024
7:30-9 pm, eastern
On Zoom

As we prepare for our annual FAHE gathering – Valiant for the Truth – June 3-6 at Malone University, this event gave us the chance to hear the voices of students from communities too rarely heard on our campuses.

Dove John facilitated a conversation among our student panel around these queries

  • What are the moral, spiritual supports for your witness? 
  • To what extent have those supports come from your college? 
  • In what ways do moral supports for truth telling need strengthening on our campuses?

Moderator Bio:

In 1983 Esther “Little Dove” John walked solo across the country to the United Nations for the cause of world peace, social justice and environmental protection.  She started a peace academy, worked as a mental health counselor and started an organization that places musicians in hospitals to perform at bedside for patients.  In 1987 she participated in the US-Soviet Peace Walk from Leningrad to Moscow with 200 Americans and 200 Soviet citizens. She worked in radio as a public affairs director, taught education at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and at Antioch University Seattle and taught psychology at Seattle Central Community College.  She was site manager of Northwest Indian College at Muckleshoot and now is writing the memoirs of her 1983 peace walk.
