March 3, 2026: STFers from New Roads School hosted a tent event to raise awareness about their Student Bill of Responsibilities and Rights (SBRR), which they are currently developing. The event featured four tents, each focused on a different aspect of human rights and engagement.
The first tent highlighted what human rights look like globally and on their own campus. The second provided information about the SBRR and why student feedback and participation are essential to making it meaningful and effective. At the third tent, students began engaging directly in the process by responding to questions and posting sticky notes about human rights on campus and their own experiences. Finally, the fourth tent featured a trivia activity to test what students had learned during the event and a chance to win sweet treats!
The ultimate goal of the event was to encourage more students to complete the Taking the Temperature survey so the chapter can begin drafting their SBRR with guidance and feedback from the school community. The event was a huge success: within just a few days, the chapter had already received 70 responses!
