Political Science

Come “visit the Wall”, a student-and-faculty-built replica of the Berlin Wall which went down 30 years ago! Reflect upon the historical and general meaning of the Wall, bring a pen and leave your thoughts in writing or drawing, engage with it in any productive way you like. And join us for a collective “Tearing down the Wall” event on Saturday, November 9th, in the evening. Once the Wall is gone, let’s celebrate inside of Atwater!!!
