University of Pittsburgh at Titusville

YWCA staff and Pitt-Titusville students met with Titusville Middle and High School students on Friday, January 23. At both the middle and high schools, Pitt-Titusville students led discussions about the importance of the work and life of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. The students also engaged in dialogue about current issues of diversity in the United States and about how in a diverse society we can better listen and learn from each other. Dialogue, it is hoped, will lead to greater understanding and appreciation of differences.

Black Student Union members and friends who participated were: Tenasia Law, Doug Foster, Ashle Hall, Eddy Camara, Melissa Cherry, Conor Craig, Kyrie Wade, Aisha Salami, Stephanie Thomas and Kaylee Mason.

Members of Jeff Ledebur’s class also participated: Diante Lunsford, Gage McIntyre, Kenny Foshay, Riley Kisbee, Casey Davis and Coivan Makia.

Thanks to all the students who participated.

The committee on Sexual Violence is hosting its first annual sexual Violence Awareness Week February 2-6. A complete schedule of events will be coming soon, however, please consider being a part of the activities taking place. As you may know, the issue of sexual violence on college campuses has become more and more present, and we all have an obligation to do our part in addressing it through raising awareness, bystander inter-vention, and personal accountability. As part of the week, we will be encouraging all facul-ty, staff, and students to take the pledge to work to eliminate this problem. You can vis-it: www.itsonus.org for more information.

Providing that enough UPT students are interested, a Guitar Club is in the process of being formed at UPT and the first meeting will be held soon. Those leading the effort have included UPT stu-dents Thomas Koraido and Jacob Rash, with the assistance of faculty member Mr. Ron Shoup.

Just prior to our holiday break, a constitution for the Guitar Club was written by Thomas and was approved, along with a budget, by the Student Government Association. As per the constitution, “This club is hereby created to produce a casual environment where students can share their mu-sical talents with one another and mutually learning from each other, while socializing and having fun.” Membership is open to all UPT students and meetings are open to all students, faculty and staff.

Guitar Club membership is free, but there may be costs for participation in field trips and events sponsored by the student organization.

Those members who own instruments will be encouraged to bring and share them. It is not neces-sary, however, that members own guitars or yet know how to play a guitar. At least a couple of in-struments have already been made available for use by members of the club.

Generally, meetings will not take place less than once a month and Guitar Club activities or topics covered may include, but are not limited to: introductory guitar lessons and theory; sharing of tal-ents and techniques; practice sessions; guitar set-up and maintenance; presentations or concerts by guest guitarists; planning and coordination of club activities; and, field trips to area concerts or guitar shops.

Students having an interest in UPT Guitar Club membership should contact either Jacob Rash by e-mail at: jnr23@pitt.edu or Mr. Ron Shoup by e-mail at: reshoup@pitt.edu as soon as possible. Please also include in your e-mails the weekday evenings that would best accommodate you be-ing able to attend club meetings.
