In case you missed last week’s issue, a quick re-cap: Kathryn Wasserman Davis, bless her heart, is giving away one million dollars—in $10,000 parcels—to the 100 best student-conceived, student-enacted projects to promote peace. (Sorry for the excessive alliteration.) This article from The Mac Weekly discusses the particulars as it relates to Macalester’s own student body—and props for that—but it also gives readers a more in-depth portrait of Ms. Wasserman Davis and her projects. If you’re one of the lucky ducks enrolled at the 76 colleges eligible to compete for this prize and your student paper hasn’t been so good to you, this is a good crash course. (Go, ducky, go!)
