5:00-5:30 PM Panel

Friday 5th March

Shadow Friends

The panelists this year are young adults, between the ages of 17 and 18. The conversation is around bullying in girls or how the phenomenon presents and impacts young women, both in person and online. From dirty looks, taunting notes, and social exclusion that plague girls’ friendships and which have gained new momentum in cyberspace, the panel explores bullying as it presents among girls but also how harassment, both sexual and otherwise, manifests for young women online.
