Freedom without walls
Nov. 9 marked the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall. Virginia Wesleyan College hosted a “Freedom Without Walls” celebration for high school students from Virginia Beach Public Schools. The students had the opportunity to listen to guest speakers who were directly affected by the falling of the Berlin Wall and to participate in activities themed to Berlin.
“The Fall of the Wall” event brought together people young and old at VWC to celebrate a historic moment for democracy and the free world,” said junior Dennen Miner. “I enjoyed volunteering for the event and seeing high schoolers as excited about the event as we were.”
