Campus update: Can we commmunicate?
Sept. 15, 2022
Can you communicate when you disagree?
Symposium Day: Civil Discourse on Oct. 12 will be an all-day all-campus attempt to think about the question above. You can participate by attending the day's sessions and workshops, OR you can present your own.
We will consider how we can engage in respectful discussions, find common ground and maintain an open mind.
Members of the campus community are invited to submit proposals for the day's sessions that relate to the theme. Proposals are due by 5 p.m. Sept. 19.
