Community Conversations at Lawrence University are a series of structured dialogues that facilitate authentic communication across some critical area of perceived difference. The purpose is to practice civil deliberation while promoting greater intergroup understanding and trust. We want to help participants begin to move beyond political orthodoxies in order to see ourselves
as diverse but related travelers on life’s journey together with shared concerns and values. It will also serve as a basis to develop collaborative strategies to increase the well-being, civility and participation of people across the political spectrum in all aspects of the life of our campus.
Please RSVP to michelle.l.lasecki-jahnke@lawrence.edu by Monday, March 27.
