Unity Day

topic: Hey guys, I'm so exhausted from this VERY long week. I'm on the committee for Unity Day and after plenty of work it finally happened. We had the most dynamic and amazing speaker, Irshad Manji, come and speak to us about her controversial ideas on the change in Islamic culture. She didn't come to change our ideas on the culture, but, she did come to show us that we can use our voices to "Ask Questions! Out Loud!" This wasn't the end to Unity DAYS 2006 though because we had incredible amounts of multicultural food. All of our events had an incredible number of people; we were so proud of the turnout! All I can say is that if you haven't been on a committee yet, you don't know what your missing. If you have been on a committee at Rider you should know that you get amazing perks like: free food, and front-row seating at a packed event, and even getting to meet the person that is said to be Osama Bin Laden's Worst Nightmare! and it was AMAZING!
