by organizing and carrying out several activities for the entire student

events. These activities include, but are not limited to, the following:

is given (1 absence per semester is allowed)

(called "MAGC Workshops") per year in order
to effectively model and promote the MAGC

announcements on a personal level with peers
assisting with the Student of the Month program (organized
by the PTSA)
promoting the CIA Program,
on-going, anecdotal recognition on morning announcements for those who "exhibit
the MAGC" on campus and in school events,

Activities Office

serving well-deserved ice cream to their peers at O-Socials,

Citizenship & Effort on their report cards

2) CEOs watched/listened to the
"Caring and Respect"
slideshow presented by the board and advisor.
(click on title to download PowerPoint slides presented at workshop)
3) The slideshow presentation was followed up
by brainstorming situations in which disrespect or uncaring attitudes
were observed in school-related events. Some of those mentioned
include but are not limited to the following:
- When teachers interrupt/ignore you
- When people flaunt their money, bragging about
their Tiffany's stuff and Coach purse
- When people gossip about you behind your back
- When teachers ignore you when you raise your
hand
- When you say "hi" to a stranger and they don't
respond
- When teachers interrupt you while you are trying
to talk to another teacher
- When counselors treat you differently based on
your grades or parental involvement
- When people say that something is "gay" or "retarded"
- When people make stereotypes about how "Asian"
Oxford is
- When teachers favor students (i.e. advanced studens
in a beginning band/choir class)
- When the so-called "popular people" look down
on others like they're better than everybody
- When religious clubs are active on campus and
separation of church & state is ignored
- When someone else dresses differently and people
make fun of them
- When invitations say "everyone is invited" but
you didn't get one, or when you go and you feel uncomfortable because
no one associated with you
- When people make fun of you for being smart and
having a 4.0
- During group work, having to go from group to
group asking to join
- When someone speaks in a language I don't know,
I feel excluded
- While at a dance, and people say "(so-and-so)
can't dance"
- When people ignore you just because they cannot
conceive the idea you are trying to say
- When people think they're better than you because
of your weight
- When you are put in a group and the "popular"
people seem to not want to associate with the "unpopular" people
- When the "popular" people exclude others by calling
them names or throwing dirty looks
- When people get bullied and picked on because
they're not average size (smaller or bigger than normal)
- When teachers only choose boys to carry things
4) Worksheets were distributed to CEOs while they
took turns writing observations on the board.
-
"Pyramid of Hate" talked about the roots of genocide being
acts of bias and how simple thoughts can escalate into immoral
actions.
- "How to Intervene" focused on steps for teachers
to combat bullying and discrimination, so we used this as a springboard
to offer suggestions on how students would deal with these issues.
(Materials were provided by the Anti-Defamation
League's
"A WORLD
OF DIFFERENCE Institute" training.)
5) CEOs were then split into groups to discuss
and identify the most pressing issues, and also to offer solutions
to the problems or positive ways of dealing with the situations
generated.
