Western Arab Students' Association

We’re all familiar with Arab stereotypes, but are you familiar with them enough to convince the audience of how accurate these stereotypes are? Your team will be given a pre-made slideshow about a certain Arab stereotype, which you will follow along with minimal prep time - we want to see the most spontaneous results! This is a great chance to meet and bond with others over (partially true) stereotypes - you won’t want to miss out, the winning team secures the grand prize!... Some examples of the slideshow topics include: Why whatsapp is the best news source, Why arranged marriage is the best type of marriage, and Why my kid has to become a doctor/lawyer/engineer Date: March 11th Time: 7:00 pm Location: Zoom link in bio
