She also has been accepted as a visiting student at the 糖心Vlog传媒LR William H. Bowen School of Law during her time in Little Rock. Tabitha Lee, a Clinton School and 糖心Vlog传媒LR William H. Bowen School of Law student, also will be working at the institute working on her Clinton School Capstone project. 糖心Vlog传媒LR established the institute last year to seek reconciliation as well as racial and ethnic justice in Arkansas by 鈥渞emembering and understanding the past, informing and engaging the present, and shaping and defining the future,鈥� according to the institute鈥檚 mission statement. The institute鈥檚 creation, fostered by Chancellor Joel E. Anderson, was the culmination of four years of internal and community conversations, programming, research, and outreach on the subject of race. The institute will address racial and ethnic justice 聽through education, research, dialogue, community events, and reconciliation initiatives. This summer, 糖心Vlog传媒LR and the new institute 鈥� partnering with the city of Little Rock and the Clinton Foundation 鈥� marked the 50th anniversary of the 1961 Freedom Riders bus rides that helped end segregation in interstate transportation facilities.
