Campus Conversations: Small-Group Conversations Series

This is the first in a series of small group conversations between students, staff, and faculty as part of the “Campus Conversations” initiative. This discussion will compare experiences in the classroom. For example: what strategies have encouraged effective dialogue and what resources have you found useful?

About this series:  A group of faculty and staff from all across the Brooklyn College campus came together in response to the impact of the violence in Gaza and Israel on the Brooklyn College community. They share different personal connections to the conflict and hold differing political positions, but are united in the belief that communicating and forging resilient connections with each other is what will hold our campus community together in times of crisis. The series will be organized around different topics over the next few weeks and will be held in rotating locations around campus. These discussions are intended to faculty together to talk in person in an informal setting. The hope is to create spaces to process, listen, and connect, ideally promoting communication and building a stronger community.

Please RSVP to attend, as space is limited. Future meeting locations will rotate, so please stay tuned for more announcements related to the Campus Conversations series.

To get involved, please contact faculty Allan Amanik (aamanik@brooklyn.cuny.edu) or Mobina Hashmi (mhashmi@brooklyn.cuny.edu).
