Description
"It's Just Coffee" is a series of meet-ups (approximately twice a month) for students to practice their dialogue skills in a low-stakes environment.
This event brings together diverse perspectives to engage in dialogue about complex topics by sharing viewpoints, listening openly, and working to understand one another. The goal is not consensus; it is shared learning.
No topic expertise is required to participate, and a dialogue facilitator and topic guide will be available to assist all participants. And of course, there will be coffee (and tea and snacks)!
Participants may engage with questions such as:
- "Have standards of public courtesy and etiquette changed over time, and if so, why?"
- "Do individuals have a responsibility to consider how their behavior affects others in shared public spaces?"
- "What role do technology, social media, and cultural change play in shaping how we treat one another?"
