FILM AND FORUM – DOCUMENTARIES AT THE LIBRARY: The Film and Forum series returns to the Haas Library on the Midtown campus. Join us for our final Film and Forum for the Spring 2025 semester from 3 to 5 p.m. for a screening of “Climate Refugees,” a highly awarded documentary that focuses on the intersection between “overpopulation, excessive consumption, dwindling resources, and a shifting climate.”

A discussion following the screening will be led by Dr. Anna Malavisi, Associate Professor and Co-Chair of the Department of Philosophy.

Popcorn and snacks provided by Wally’s Cupboard, WCSU’s Food Pantry. To learn more about Wally’s Cupboard and how to support their efforts, click the link here: Wally’s Cupboard by SGA
