Film Screening of "Tickling Giants" and PACS 40th Kick Off

The PACS Student Society is hosting a screening of Tickling Giants to kick off the Fall 2017 term, and the celebrations of the PACS 40th anniversary year.

Tickling Giants is about Dr. Bassem Youssef, the "Egyptian Jon Stewart", who leaves his job as a heart surgeon and become a late-night comedian in Egypt. The film tells the story of how he uses his late-night comedy show as a creative and nonviolent method of protecting free speech and a leader who abuses power.

A Better Tent City

From the A Better Tent City website:

ABTC began as a low barrier/housing first approach to provide an opportunity to move people experiencing homelessness from dangerous conditions on the streets into a more safe and supportive community with protection from the environment, access to hygiene and sanitation facilities, and connection to services and healthcare on a path to stable housing.
