The Great Migration has begun

East Quad will be going under extensive construction next year and the RC will be relocating to West Quad, South Quad and Dennison for the next academic year.  Although these renovations are long overdue, the RC and East Quad have never been apart in its 40 plus year history! To many RC-ers, East Quad has been a member of the family. 

To maintain community during this period of change, we've begun the RC at Large Blog, which will be maintained, structured and posted to en masse by all all of us. Take a look, leave a comment, and join in the Odyssey.

The RC returns to East Quad

RC Community Summer Read

"Every generation inherits from the past a set of problems - personal and social – and a dominant set of insights and perspectives by which the problems are to be understood and, hopefully, managed. The critical feature of this generation’s inheritance is that the problems are so serious as to actually threaten civilization, while the conventional perspectives are of dubious worth. Horrors are regarded as commonplace; we take universal strife in stride; we treat newness with a normalcy that suggests a deliberate flight from reality."

Thus begins "The Port Huron Statement", the manifesto of the American student activist movement Students for a Democratic Society (SDS), written primarily by Tom Hayden, then the Field Secretary of SDS, and completed on June 15, 1962 at an SDS convention at what is now a state park in Lakeport, Michigan, a community north of Port Huron.

Join us this summer as we read together "The Port Huron Statement" and look for scheduled events around the community read in the Fall, 2012 semester.
