SHREVEPORT, LA — Centenary's Minority Student Association will host a student-led forum on racial and ethnic stereotypes and the minority experience at 7 p.m. in the South Dining Hall of Bynum Commons on Centenary's campus.

This forum will feature a panel of Centenary students who represent different races and ethnicities, including black, white, Asian, Latin and Middle Eastern. Forum organizers hope the event will confront tough questions about race relations and foster cohesiveness among members of the student body.

For more information, contact Ilissa May, president of the Minority Student Association, at imay@centenary.edu.
