Conversation Series

Sharing our Perspectives and Experiences 

EVENT REGISTRATION

At this moment in our country and world, change is happening at a rapid pace. Some are excited by what they see as positive movement while others struggle with fear and anger over changes they see in negative terms. And yet, we live and work together on a shared campus. What does this mean for our campus community? What does this mean for you?

This Campus Conversation offers a space for the campus community to talk collectively about how people are doing. Our goal is to increase awareness, understanding, and mutual support on campus. Conversation can strengthen community.

The Conversation will be facilitated by the Padnos/Sarosik Center for Civil Discourse in partnership with Mediation Services.

This Event is INT 100/201 Approved!
