Title:
Wolf Tales recording with S. Saxena: Caldwell Fellows 50th Anniversary Gala, 17 February 2018
Description:
This recording was conducted in the StateView Hotel on Centennial Campus of North Carolina State University in Raleigh, North Carolina, at the Caldwell Fellows 50th Anniversary Gala. S. Saxena (Class of 2015) discusses his reflections on the Caldwell Fellows program, and the assumptions he made when he began the program. Saxena highlights a trip he took with his peers to a Fellow’s home in El Salvador and the community that they encountered there; he also reflects on starting a non-profit organization with another Fellow; and meaningful encounters gained outside of the program. Saxena then elaborates on some of the ways his assumptions about his trajectory were challenged in his senior year, and how he sought out community. Saxena also speaks about his experience attending a Caldwell Fellows Men’s Retreat, the ways he was forced to work on his own vulnerabilities and values, and how he saw others in his community also undertake this introspection and work. Saxena closes by expressing pride in his journey and thanking those responsible for the Caldwell program. [Preferred citation: Wolf Tales recording with S.
