A partnership between the College, Engineering and General Studies, the Undergraduate Community Initiative focuses on deepening students’ understanding of and commitment to the values of inclusive community, deep listening and robust debate, and civic engagement through service.
The School for International and Public Affairs has launched the Institute for Global Politics’ Across the Aisle series, sponsored by Knight Foundation, which features discussions between prominent domestic and global leaders with opposing viewpoints.
Campus Conversations is a University Life program that leads sessions to foster dialogue across difference among students through this dialogue-based initiative in order to build community and connections through real and deep conversations.
