Meaning of Pangea
In 1915, the German geologist and meteorologist Alfred Wegener first
proposed the theory of continental drift. Wegener hypothesized that
there was an original, gigantic supercontinent 200 million years ago,
which he named Pangea, meaning “All-earth”. It made sense to name the
club Pangea because the club comprises of students representing
different countries from all over the world.
About Us
It was started in 2002 by a small group of students whose belief was
that by starting a multicultural club in the school it would create
awareness of the different and diverse cultures.
Goals
- Encourage more students’ involvement
- Organize more events to draw more cultures
- Build relationships with other clubs and organizations at HTC
- Work with other college to create other Pangea Clubs around the state
