If life at Renison were a movie 📽️

Renison Associate Professor Dr. Crystena Parker-Shandal is preparing to release her new book, Peacebuilding Pedagogies: Racial Justice, Dialogue, and Belonging in the Classroom, on September 25.⁣

The book offers educators practical ways to address conflict, support meaningful dialogue, and create classrooms where students feel a stronger sense of belonging.

Dr. Parker-Shandal will also celebrate the launch with a free community event at the Victoria Park Pavilion this November, supported by Renison. More details will be shared soon.⁣

We searched through old yearbooks for photos of students wearing the shirts. Then, we asked some of our current students to recreate the original looks! Here’s how they turned out!
