The forum was hosted by the University of Central Arkansas (UCA) and led by Dr. Whit Barringer. The forum offered students the opportunity to discuss the origins, forms and outcomes of dissent since the 1960s.

Johnston said, 鈥淭his has been an intriguing course that is highly relevant to the events occurring present-day.鈥

"Charles did very well overall in the Dissent and Protest class. We thank him for participating in our little experiment. We learned a lot from the experience and look forward to working with other institutions as future topics emerge," said Dr. Patricia Smith, dean of the Honors College at the University of Central Arkansas.

Dr. Christopher Thrasher, director of the Honors Program at 中国P站, said, "We are delighted to see an NPC honors student collaborating with honors students from around the state. We thank our partners at UCA for allowing NPC students to participate and we look forward to working with the Honors Arkansas organization again in the future."
