25 October 00 | "How Race is Lived in America: Dialogue, Reflection and Action," an evening symposium based on The New York Times' widely-acclaimed summer series on race in America, will be held from 7:30 to 9:30 p.m., Monday, Oct. 30, in Wheeler Auditorium.

Reporters and editors who worked on the series - which explored how ordinary Americans deal with race in their daily lives - will reflect on their personal experiences as their articles took shape.

Besides "stories behind the stories," the evening offers faculty, staff and members of the public an opportunity to talk about issues of race.

A reception prior to the event will be held at 6 p.m. in the library of the Graduate School of Journalism. Admission is free to both the symposium and the reception.

For information, or to RSVP for the reception, call 643-3274. For complimentary reprints of the race series, e-mail nytrobinow@aol.com or call (888) 698-2816.
