Can We Talk? Civil Dialogue for Troubled Times

Come together with college students from around America. Get dialogue tips you can use on campus, online, with family.

Topics for discussion may include:

  • The Travis Scott concert tragedy;
  • Climate change and you after Glasgow;
  • Admissions preferences – yes or no?;
  • Hookup culture – liberating or degrading?;
  • Immigration – which America do you prefer?

Best political discussion I ever had.

Eye-opening. Refreshing. I loved it!

Students can win prizes for inviting friends, filling out a survey.
