We are a group of communication major students (Sam Morales, Jennifer Kim, Taciana Dawson, Caroline Donahue, Smita Bedi, Malorie Duda, and Nathali Arias) from the University of Illinois at Chicago who want to be a part of the anti-bullying movement. We wanted to help build a community of people against it with blog posts, videos, articles, and pictures on Facebook and Tumblr.

President, Barack Obama, and first wife, Michelle Obama, have taken it upon themselves to discuss ways to eliminate bullying in schools. As parents, they see how big of an issue it is, and are working towards increasing awareness in just how serious bullying is. According to Obama, bullying was treated as an unavoidable part of bullying, but that no longer serves true as long as you actively try to prevent bullying. </p> <p>In fact, President Obama had a meeting with Lady Gaga to discuss her efforts and opinions in the fight against bullying. </p> <p>TO PARTICIPATE : go to stopbullying.gov </p> <p>-SB</p>http://comm200.tumblr.com/post/13479043696http://comm200.tumblr.com/post/13479043696Mon, 28 Nov 2011 20:31:00 -0500<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lv8rr3prJS1r3rfp1o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>-SB</p>http://comm200.tumblr.com/post/13474210998http://comm200.tumblr.com/post/13474210998Mon, 28 Nov 2011 18:58:59 -0500<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lvakt9VppE1r6zaklo1_400.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lvakt9VppE1r6zaklo2_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lvakt9VppE1r6zaklo3_400.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lvakt9VppE1r6zaklo4_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lvakt9VppE1r6zaklo5_400.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lvakt9VppE1r6zaklo6_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lvakt9VppE1r6zaklo7_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><p>Bullying in its many forms</p> <p>-SB</p>http://comm200.tumblr.com/post/13473992060http://comm200.tumblr.com/post/13473992060Mon, 28 Nov 2011 18:54:47 -0500<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lvam5ePvGG1qbj931o1_r2_500.gif"/><br/><br/><p>-SB</p>http://comm200.tumblr.com/post/13473952904http://comm200.tumblr.com/post/13473952904Mon, 28 Nov 2011 18:54:01 -0500<iframe width="400" height="300" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/D3KsGTIeO7A?wmode=transparent&autohide=1&egm=0&hd=1&iv_load_policy=3&modestbranding=1&rel=0&showinfo=0&showsearch=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://likelyhealthy.tumblr.com/post/13387331068/mtv-cyber-bullying-psa">likelyhealthy</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>MTV Cyber-bullying PSA. </p> </blockquote> <p>-MTV encourages teens to be active in the fight against bullying.
