Today: Deliberative Dialogue on Free Speech and the Inclusive Campus

Dialogues are opportunities for collaborative thinking about complex issues. They are unlike panel discussions or debates, which emphasize expert or adversarial exchanges. In dialogues, attendees drive the conversation in small groups facilitated by trained moderators. The objective of a dialogue is to be participatory, egalitarian, and non-adversarial. These events are free and open to the public, but advance registration is required.
