Bridging the Divide- A Student-Led Civil Discourse Event

Thursday, September 26, 2024 at 5:00 PM
Location: William Pope Wright Student Center

Bridging the Divide, a new program of the Tommy G. Thompson Center on Public Leadership,  seeks to reduce partisan division by fostering civil discourse among students and promoting civic virtue. The program brings students with different ideological and partisan political perspectives together for small group conversations about current political issues and beliefs. Rather than reaching a consensus, the goal is simply to replace snark with civil dialogue and increases engagement and understanding between people with different opinions.
