F.A.C.E. is
one of the newest student organization's on
campus. With a currently active
membership that will rival the more
established club's here at GSC, this group
is helping to change the public's view of
what is
"normal".
Their first
event featuring Greg Sealey of The Home
Depot was an astounding success! Mr.
Sealey compared success to building a house.
He said that the foundation of that house
begins with understanding your true self.
"Accept your reality, but don't dwell on
it," he said. "A long time ago, I
accepted the reality of being disabled.
I chose not to let it consume me." Mr.
Sealey's words were empowering to all in
attendance.
A heartfelt
thank you to all involved in making this
event possible. Eugene Hendrix,
"You're the best!". Gabriel Reyes,
"Muchas gracias, amigo!".
Jeanne Nash, The Media Guru, "Thank you!", Student Life staff, "Thanks for all the
advice in getting all of this planned!"
GSC staff members, "thank you for supporting
us!".
The club
recently hosted
Jesse Billauer, (a person who has lived
with paralysis since a surfing accident),
and
Full Radius Dance, (a dance group
consisting of persons with and without
disabilities).
All students
are welcome. So if you are looking for
a fulfilling way to connect with a diverse
group of students, and encourage acceptance
and appreciation of the unique qualities in
every person, then this is the organization
for you.
