Bob Skloot, emeritus professor of Theatre & Drama and Jewish Studies, is working in the Volunteer Corps of the American Jewish World Service in Vijayawada, India this spring.
Skloot's assignment over the two months in India is to use theatre to raise and discuss social issues and to bring public awareness to them.
He also hopes to improve the individual self-confidence of young people in two impoverished Dalit (formerly "untouchables") villages.
