Greenville Consolidated School's ENG 105 class was pleased to host Kristin Vekasi, Associate Professor of Political Science at the University of Maine, for a virtual guest lecture on 04/28/2025.
Dr. Vekasi, also the Director of the International Affairs program at UMaine, spent the morning explaining the historical and cultural context of Waiting, a novel by Ha Jin which is set during the Cultural Revolution in Communist China.
Students were further introduced to modern Chinese history, Mao's rise to power and his propaganda apparatus, and how the CCP came to dominate the social lives of the characters featured in the book during the middle of the 20th century.
Dr. Vekasi also shared some of her journey into academia and answered student questions related to the book and postsecondary education.
It was a great privilege to have a subject-matter expert meet with our class.
On Thursday, May 1st, artist Sarah Haskell visited our school to lead a community mandala weaving project, generously sponsored by Monson Arts. She brought a beautiful 36" circle loom, and students took turns weaving colorful fabric strips to create the vibrant centerpiece. Each student also made a clothespin doll to represent themselves, along with a ribbon that now hangs from the bottom of the mandala. Stations were set up for weaving, doll-making, and ribbons, and thanks to a coordinated schedule, nearly every student had a chance to participate. The finished mandala will be proudly displayed at the spring concert and art show alongside student artwork. It was a joyful and creative day filled with color, collaboration, and school-wide spirit!
