The ICS renewed its marketing programme with high schools to attract new stu- dents to The University of the West Indies. Some of the activities carried out in the AY 2022/2023 to increase its students’ intake were: 1. A Workshop on Culture and Violence in Schools with the assistance of Dr. Deon Edwards-Kerr, Lecturer in the School of Education on Friday, April 28 and Sunday, April 30, 2023. The workshop highlighted the role culture plays in impacting behaviour. It also provided space for the involvement of graduate student Ms. Melissa Beckford-Simpson who chaired the first workshop. The second workshop was chaired by Dr. Sonjah Stanley Niaah and speakers in the series included Dr. Nicole Plummer, Dr. Dennis Howard, Ms. Isabel Dennis and Dr. Dave Gosse. 2.
