Informed Discussions: Civil and Respectful Communication, Discourse & Debate – A Student's Guide
|
| Overview |
Today’s campus is a breeding ground of heated discussions. From political discussions to race relations, social equality and social justice — the topics are important and serious and the feelings run deep. Isn’t this great? Isn’t this why the institution was built? As a place to exchange ideas, challenge norms and stretch convention?
But invective language, venomous barbs and hateful tones have disturbed civil communication, discourse and debate on our campuses.
Take back the civil discourse on your campus. Return heated rhetoric to informed discussions. Avoid letting heated discussions turn into a campus controversy.
Introducing: three tools to change the campus dynamic and inform the conversation. The Informed Discussions Series is complete toolkit to allow you to educate students and faculty in how to participate in civil communication, discourse and debate — plus a tool to show your staff how to work with students on the front line when difficult conversations take place.
