I received my Bachelors in Communication in 1998 with an emphasis in Intercultural Communication. I have worked in Peer Mentoring groups in the past where my goal was to educate people on Prevention topics (like Drug Prevention, Domestic Violence Prevention) and Diversity\/Inclusion topics. I have completed director training from the Anytown\/Ourtown programs and have used these experiences to teach about commonalities among peers as well as inclusiveness appreciation.&nbsp; I have also worked at Rio Salado as an Academic Advisor, as well as Honors, and I am now situated in Student Life and Leadership as a Program Specialist.<\/p>\n<p><strong>November 2019 update:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Nonviolence trainer Rowdy Duncan is debunking stereotypes at his university, Phoenix College.

As a speaker\/trainer\/consultant with his own company, he hosts and produces a bi-weekly podcast called <a href=\"https:\/\/inclusiveactivism.com\/\">The Inclusive Activism<\/a> \u2013 which explores the intersections of being an activist for those of marginalized background and how it makes you a better happier person<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u201cAt Phoenix College, my favorite classes to teach are COM110 Interpersonal Communication (I call it the keys to happiness) COM225; Public Speaking (I am a paid traveling public speaker); and COM263 Intercultural Communication (i.e. what is wrong with the world and how to better fix it and make new friends and allies),\u201d says Duncan. \u201cI enjoy living a life of service when I can \u2013 and try to incorporate service-learning into my courses as doing so has had some excellent outcomes in terms of empowerment and helping students see the ability to make a positive difference in our world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Contact Information:&nbsp;<\/strong>rowdy.duncan@paradisevalley.edu<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Arizona, USA<br \/>\n(Level I &#8211; 2014)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1962,"featured_media":6099,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[80,209],"tags":[518],"class_list":["post-5728","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-participants","category-united-states-arizona","tag-summer-institute-2014"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/web.uri.edu\/nonviolence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5728","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/web.uri.edu\/nonviolence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/web.uri.edu\/nonviolence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/web.uri.edu\/nonviolence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1962"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/web.uri.edu\/nonviolence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5728"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/web.uri.edu\/nonviolence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5728\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":31651,"href":"https:\/\/web.uri.edu\/nonviolence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5728\/revisions\/31651"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/web.uri.edu\/nonviolence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/6099"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/web.uri.edu\/nonviolence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5728"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/web.uri.edu\/nonviolence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5728"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/web.uri.edu\/nonviolence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5728"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
