As the final class project, students from Shaul Cohen's "Conflict Resolution in Northern Ireland" class wrote articles about the course and course content for a variety of newsletters and newspapers, including local Eugene news and organizations in Derry/Londonderry, Northern Ireland. We're really excited to post some of the articles here, and to share how this class and word about Inside-Out is spreading in the community here, and around to the other side of the world.
So here's a link to the first article published by one of our classmates. We all felt that it was a beautiful reflection of this course, and thank Ben for his dedication and for his writing. Check out the article here: The Register-Guard. And check back on the blog--I have a feeling Ben and others will be doing some writing in the coming weeks.

Final Class Project: Bucknell University and PA State Correctional Institution
The class "Women and the Penal System" class of Spring 2011 completed a powerful set of testimony as their final class project. They solicited reflections on their classroom experiences from former and current inside and outside students. They were not permitted to audio- or video-record the inside students, so they developed a way to represent the inside students' views by having the outside students audio record the inside students' words.
The students performed a simple and moving three-part video, using silhouettes and voices from the inside and the outside. Their videos can be found here at Inside Out Voices on Youtube.
The three videos address the differing expectations and reactions to their Inside-Out classes: one anticipating the class, one during the class, and one reflecting back on their semester together.
I think these stories are incredibly powerful, and that these short videos show great artistry and power. I hope to hear more about this project soon!
