Tunnel of Oppression
Sponsored by Baylor's Campus Living and Learning, the Tunnel of Oppression is an interesting event that provides Baylor students with an opportunity to experience oppression that they have only read about. The Tunnel has been held in Barfield Drawing room and other adjacent rooms of the Bill Daniel Student Center. The Tunnel consists of a series of rooms in which a skit portraying some sort of oppression was acted out. Each skit had a theme such as genocide, domestic abuse, eating disorders, sexual orientation discrimination, cultural discrimination, slur tunnel, etc.

Again, the Magellan Society sponsored the “Cultural Differences” room of Campus Living and Learning’s Tunnel of Oppression. In the skit, cultural differences create unnecessary tension between students. We must learn to look past our cultural differences.
February 9-10, 2004.
The Magellan Society sponsored the "Cultural Differences" room of the Tunnel of Oppression. The actors involved acted out a skit in which cultural hatred was expressed. The idea of this part of the tunnel and most of the rest of it is that many people do not realize that such oppression is going on even when they see it happening in front of them. Other times, some people are too sheltered to realize that such things actually happen in real life. Hopefully, the Tunnel of Oppression acted as an eye-opener for those who are not aware.
