Friday March 28, 2014 5:00 -7:00 pm in the Culinary Arts Cafeteria Walking the Talk: Moving Indigenous Studies from the Classroom to the Community A presentation by the students of Anthropology 4050: Canadian Status/Treaty Indian Reserve Communities.

In this session students will showcase their final assignments from the course ANTH 4050.

Throughout the course we have discussed the complexities of the history of the reserve system

in Canada, the nuances of the Treaty process, the rigidity of the Indian Act, the traumas of

residential schools and lived implications of forced relocations on Indigenous communities. We

have examined how colonial relations are spatialized and how this spacialization translates into

lived social relations. This showcase represents our desire to share what we have learned and

why it matters with our TRU community in the hopes of nurturing a space of understanding,

compassion, and mutually respectful conversation.

Directed by Andrew Cooper Ben – Josh Sunderman

Lillian – Jessica Buchanan Lillian and Ben are attracted to one another. The only trouble is they've never met. They've only seen each other in the lobby of the American Museum of Natural History where they've each been mysteriously drawn. Awkward Silence by Jay Reiss

Directed by Allison Clow Man – Erik Stephany Woman – Alley Barton

A man and woman are tired of the endless first dates and the boring, repetitive conversations that come with them. After being set up by a mutual friend, they must find a way to fight through the awkward silences if they have any hope of making a true connection. A Second of Pleasure by Neil LaBute

Directed by Brooke Ballam Jess – CJ Renee Kurt – Joel Feenstra

Isn’t it amazing when you realize one little thing can change your life? Kurt and Jess have a romantic getaway planned for the weekend, but at the last minute Jess realizes she doesn’t want to go.

On the Porch One Crisp Spring Morning by Alex Dremann Directed by Wyatt Purcha

Daughter – Maddy Henry Mother – M’Lissa O’Neil

A delightful brunch, the splendid aroma of freshly brewed coffee filling the crisp morning air, and a peaceful breeze grazing the back porch under a warm blue sky. It's almost a shame someone is going to have to die. Don’t forget to head to the Art Gallery after the show for dessert!

SERV 1000 has been offered at TRU since Fall 2009. Every semester each student volunteers at one of approximately 37 local not-for-profit organizations for a full semester. Students are required to contribute 24 hours of service as well as complete a variety of ongoing reflections related to their experiential learning. This poster session demonstrates the personal reflections on volunteer experiences of 27 students at 14 local organizations. This session also demonstrates how these experiences connect to their course work and what students will take back to their own communities after the course is over.
