World Traveler, Dean Jacobs, Presents at CHS

Nebraska native (and cousin of former CHS Art teacher, Jeannie Mohr), Dean Jacobs, presented a program for CHS students about his travels to 52 countries. His presentation was inspiring sharing stories of how people of the world are more alike than different. He had many positive messages for students including, "If you want what's positive in the world, don't wait for it to happen from the top down, it happens from the heart out!"

Thank you to Dean Jacobs, the Humanities Nebraska Foundation, and the Malaika Foundation for providing these opportunities for students.

Dean Jacobs, a native of Nebraska, left a secure job with corporate America to pursue a dream: a dream to travel around the world and to understand the world we share. Four years of exploring in over 50 countries have exposed Dean to the goodness of humanity and the magnificence of the natural beauty of places in the world. Dean brings his experiences to children everywhere through school presentations that focus on the goodness of humanity and the awe of nature. Dean offers students the opportunity to see these qualities in others and themselves, and leaves them with many choices and decisions on how to make their world a better place to live.
