SUMMARY:Short Hair Detention: Channy Chhi Laux\, survival of the Cambodian Genocide -- via Zoom
DESCRIPTION:When the Khmer Rouge seized Cambodia in 1975\, Channy Chhi Laux was thirteen years old. For the next four years she endured starvation\, forced labor\, disease\, and tremendous loss. In June 1979\, she arrived in Lincoln\, Nebraska as a Cambodian refugee and enrolled at Lincoln High School. Despite speaking no English and having not attended school for four years\, she managed to achieve academic success\, thanks in part to the kindness and support of her teachers. She went on to earn a Master of Science in Applied Mathematics from Santa Clara University and undergraduate degrees from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. She then spent 30 years working in Silicon Valley as an engineer in the Aerospace and Biotech industries. She is now an award-winning author and chef. Join us for an intimate talk with Channy to learn more about surviving genocide and the importance of compassion. \nFor more information\, please contact: Dr. Adara Goldberg at agoldber@kean.edu / (908) 737- 4633\nKean University 1000 Morris Avenue\, Union\, NJ. 07083 www.kean.edu
