Speak your mind

Poetry is, as English Professor Stephen Badrich expresses to his students, "memorable speech."

Poetry is a healthy outlet for everyone.

Verbally communicating an experience, rather than observations, creates a human connection on many different levels and is the basis of poetry.

The Black Student Alliance is hosting a poetry slam 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Wednesday in the cafeteria of Loftin Student Center.

Judi Clark, senior secretary in the media services department and adviser to the alliance, said the event is meant for students to express themselves using poetry as the medium.

A sign-in sheet will be provided for those who would like to participate.
