Saint Mary's photography students share work with community

·

Professor Douglas Tyler gave his “Introduction to Digital Photography” students a simple instruction: Construct a diary illustrating daily life through a camera lens. The result was “Digital Diaries,” an exhibit on display since mid-February in the Saint Mary’s Cushwa-Leighton Library that explores the mundanities of everyday life through a digital photography series. Tyler said his students are working with diaries in part because his course integrates women’s voices, and women have a strong voice in that area of literature.

Community members participate in call-in event

·

Notre Dame, Saint Mary’s and Holy Cross students and faculty, as well as members of the South Bend community, were invited to Geddes Coffee House on Monday to make phone calls to their governmental representatives to urge protection for recipients of Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA), who were brought into the United States by their parents as children. The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) spearheaded the national call-in day after the U.S. Senate failed to pass legislation Feb. 15 to resolve the current uncertainty recipients of DACA face with regard to immigration policy.
