Helping Mizzou students turn conflict into new connections
Differing political perspectives are a part of everyday life, but navigating conversations with those who have different views isn’t always easy. But what if students had the tools to turn those disagreements into meaningful discussions?
At the University of Missouri, the Truman School of Government and Public Affairs is helping Mizzou students develop the skills to make that shift. The effort is part of a national partnership between the Constructive Dialogue Institute, the Volcker Alliance, and thirteen other colleges and universities, including Cornell University, the University of Michigan and the University of Virginia.
