Deeper Conversations
Our role as an institution of higher education is to educate and foster informed, respectful dialogue on complex issues. The Dietrich College of Humanities and Social Sciences and Heinz College of Information Systems and Public Policy have collaborated to create a series of events that will take place during the spring and fall semesters of 2024.
These events aim to illuminate the historical, political, cultural, and narrative backgrounds of complex issues facing our society. We have intentionally created forums that represent multiple perspectives, humbly recognizing that there are many viewpoints on these long-standing conflicts.
These events are for CMU faculty, staff, students, alumni and parents, and registration is required.
