TK: Challenge
TK: Challenge is a new program we’re trying again this fall. In the spirit of Project Change, this series of activities tries to get people out of their comfort zones to see what life is like from someone else’s perspective.
Sometimes talking about the experiences of others doesn’t quite get us as close to understanding as we would like. TK: Challenge offers a select group of students the opportunity to try to step into someone else’s shoes, if only for a moment. Each challenge event consists of some sort of activity designed to put people on the other side of a social boundary, immediately followed by discussion to reflect on the experience. How did that feel? Was the experience true to others’ daily experiences? If not, is that okay? In the days following a challenge, a thread will be opened on The Devil’s Dilemma to give people a chance to share their thoughts.
