Manchester University students selected to present at the 23rd Annual Student Research Symposium.

Manchester University students in Professor Mary Lahman's COMM 256: Intercultural Communication course worked with Brenda J. Allen, author of "Difference Matters," to help inform changes and additions in the upcoming third edition. "Dr. Allen listened to six groups of MU students share their research rationale and questions. She provided insights to each group so that they could collect data as critical ethnographers to disrupt the status quo and taken-for-granted assumptions in college classrooms," Lahman said. "Our students used the results of their data analysis to create classroom activities and discuss the impact of social identities - such as age, ability, gender, race, social class, sexuality - on classroom communication in order to seek out diverse voices."
