I just returned from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee where I had the opportunity to attend the CLACS Summer Teacher Institute. The theme of the seminar was Contemporary Religious Life in Latin America and the Caribbean. We spent three full days with different professors and reseachers who covered a wide variety of cultural practices, social movements, belief systems, and artistic expressions from across Latin America and the Caribbean in the 21st century. We even visited the Milwaukee art museum to explore a collection of Haitian art.
I highly recommend this seminar. There were three days full of stimulating discussions and topics to learn and bring into the classroom. Is anybody planning something similar? Anne Koschmider Christopher Barber Bryan Dibble
