Wilmington College students have many opportunities to see professional performers and hear presenters with expertise on contemporary topics through ongoing campus programming. Some shows are especially compelling but only a few will be memorable for a lifetime. WC students Garrett Simmons and Ben Dabe believe Grammy Award-winning, hip-hop artist Che “Rhymefest” Smith’s appearance will resonate with the community long after his presentation on Monday (Sept. 30).

The Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. said, “Those who love peace must learn to organize as effectively as those who love war.” The 34th annual Westheimer Peace Symposium will put those sentiments into action with three days of performances, workshops and art from Sept. 30 through Oct. 2.

Wilmington College's 33rd annual Westheimer Peace Symposium will focus on “Peace and the Nature of War,” through the topic of “Combat Trauma and Healing,” during five programs between Aug. 30 and Sept. 26.
