By Anthony Richards

Johnny Lake hosts a seminar about tolerance to a group of students on Friday January 15th as a part of the Martin Luther King Jr. Day observance before the holiday weekend. A part of his presentation included a scenario where he simulated himself as a classroom teacher who sat in as the students were exposed to the ease of which discrimination can be commited in the
classroom. Certain students were subjected to subtle predjudices based on their fictional performance records and when other
students spoke out against the oppressions they were discouraged from class participation by Lake.
