Gregory Wolf '13 Gives TEDx Talk at Bucknell
Sanford alumnus Gregory Wolf '13 recently collaborated with a group of fellow students to give a TEDx talk at Bucknell University entitled “The Art of Racial Collaboration.”
The event, which took place on Bucknell’s campus on March 28th, featured five presentations by Bucknell students and faculty around the general theme of “Crossroads.”

The fifteen-minute presentation began with a theatrical performance by a diverse group of Bucknell students, who represented “every category of the US Census bureau’s survey,” according to their description. During the first eight minutes of the talk, these students all spoke about experiences with racial stereotyping, acting out situations that some of them have faced. Wolf entered in the middle of the talk to explain how the piece—which he directed and managed but which was written collaboratively—came to be, and how it tried to “explore and challenge our defined world-views of compassion, stereotype, and diversity.”
TEDx events, which are licensed by the global conference series TED Talks, are designed to “help communities, organizations and individuals to spark conversation and connection through local TED-like experiences.”
