Campus Compact reposted this
Campus Compact recently released a new back-to-campus starter kit entitled 🚨 Better Discourse: A Guide for Bridging Campus Divides in Challenging Times 🚨. With reference to the College Debates & Discourse Alliance, our partners, and other allies in the civil discourse space, the guide "includes invitations for self-reflection (with a corresponding guide for mapping your campus) and directs you to tools, policies, and evidence-based practices for better discourse." Both thorough and timely, this guide is a must-read for everyone in #HigherEducation. https://lnkd.in/gyrqCDMr Faculty and administrators owe it to their students to not let campuses degrade into political powder kegs this year. The resources provided in this guide -- including our programming -- can help colleges and universities proactively build bridges of understanding and foster a culture of robust, respectful dialogue. Thank you, Campus Compact! Kudos to Sara A. Mehltretter Drury and the entire project team! Laura Weaver Matt Farley Allison Briscoe-Smith Nicholas V. Longo Lisa-Marie Napoli Rachel Rains Winslow
