Abstract

This presentation is designed to raise awareness in the academic community about the "Dialogues on Diversity" program. Panelists with knowledge and experience with the program will talk about creating a climate that encourages respect for diversity. They will explore the benefits and challenges of the program, its effect on students' and facilitators ' attitudes, and provide preliminary evidence that suggests positive effects can occur when a safe environment for dialogues is facilitated. Attention will be given to the use of technology to extend conversation outside the classroom setting.
