The Leadership students of Aquinas presented Thinkfast!, an opportunity for students to fast since the previous evening, and learn about
the lives of people in other parts of the world, from Nicaraugua to Bolivia to Madagascar. This year's Thinkfast! emphasized the plight of the small
farmer in third world countries, where most who work the fields, harvesting crops like bananas, perform the bulk of the work in creating the food,
but make far less than a subsistence wage. At the end of five sessions, the students watched a breakdancing presentation and listened to musical
performances on stage by Aquinas students. Then they ate a filling meal, courtesy of the hospitality students. Here are a few pictures.
