Park University Year of Engagement Documentary Series

Presented by Park University at Park University - David Theater

During the 2018-19 academic year, Park University and the National Archives at Kansas City have partnered to commemorate the University’s Year of Engagement, a year of conversation and action on its Kansas City area campuses and in the community. The Year of Engagement Documentary Series includes films that reflect Park’s core values (accountability, civility and respect, excellence, global citizenship, inclusivity and integrity) and inspire community engagement.

On Monday, Nov. 26, the documentary “Inventing Tomorrow” will be shown at 6 p.m. in the Jenkin and Barbara David Theater within Alumni Hall on the University’s Parkville Campus. Admission is free, but attendees are requested to RSVP at park.edu/inventingtomorrow or call (816) 584-6214.

“Inventing Tomorrow” follows six young scientists from around the globe as they tackle some of the most complex environmental issues facing humanity today. Each student is preparing original scientific research that he or she will defend at the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair, considered the Olympics of high school science fairs. Framed against the backdrop of the severe environmental threats the world faces, viewers are immersed in a global view of the planetary crisis through the eyes of the generation that will be affected by it most.
