Activity ideas

Here are a list of activity ideas. If you have any other ideas or suggestions feel free to add them by way of comments. I think that as soon as we can get all organized we plan an activity. Currently I'm thinking that #3 would be the most attention grabbing and may encourage others to get interested in the organization, but I am open to different opinions...

1.Student Presentations/Forums: Students from SSW can be invited to give a presentation on the basic beliefs of their religion, common misperceptions, and things to be aware of when working with members of their particular religion. This could be followed by a question and answer session.

2.“Expert” presentation: Some expert on a particular religion (e.g. an imam, rabbi, minister, etc.) could be invited to talk about the basic beliefs of their religion and common issues members of that religion face. We could follow it with a question and answer session with just the expert or with a panel including students from that religion.

3.Anonymous presentation of beliefs: We could solicit SSW students to send in short statements about their beliefs on a theological topic (e.g. God or the afterlife) to be read aloud anonymously.
A discussion could follow, but doesn’t need to.

4.Service projects in the community, perhaps with faith-based organizations or perhaps not.

Any other ideas you can think of that would be engaging and contribute to the mission of the organization would be much appreciated!!!
