KBEI Role Play Series

Role play scenarios have proven effective in helping students and employees practice ways of responding to challenging people and situations. In the five role plays in our series we've asked two community leaders, two students, and a faculty member to demonstrate how they might work their way through scenarios that don't necessarily have easy answers. Our aim is to provide models for thinking about situations we all might face.
