Cynthia Lowen, “Not Just Kids: Bullying from the Playground to the Workplace & Beyond”
Whitley Auditorium, 7:30 p.m.
How does bullying transcend the schoolyard, following us into our workplaces, communities, family relations and online? In this engaging multimedia presentation, Lowen combines clips from the film Bully, as well as pop-culture references, news stories and more to illustrate the key characteristics of bullying behaviors and long-term patterns for the target, the bully and the witness; how to identify bullying and its impact; and how recognizing and preventing the behavior can create a positive culture shift.
