Event Description

Join us for a night with the Culture Project! The talk will be held in the lower level of St. A-Js, located on the corner of 38th and Chestnut streets.

With the advent of modern technology, smart phones and social media our world has changed forever. How do we navigate this new social landscape that no generation has had to navigate before? This presentation will engage students in a dialogue about how to integrate virtue and excellence into their use of social media. We’ll discuss how our use of media can either contribute to or endanger our personal happiness, our relationships, and the type of person we ultimately become.

We will share about the great benefits to using social media, as well as how to avoid some of its biggest downfalls, such as comparison, isolation, inauthenticity, even habits like cyber-bullying and sexting.

Through the use of stories, cultural examples and personal witness, we invite students to consider their own use of media and how we can all utilize the incredible tools that our modern day offers in social media to become a force for good in our communities and become people who leave a lasting positive impact on our world.

Our $5 all-you-can-eat dinner starts at 6 p.m.! All are welcome! Check out the facebook event here:
