The reimagined Hard Conversation Series, comes in a new look but same focus. The Office for Campus Enrichment and Engagement is proud to introduce Case Chats! This conversation series is aimed to assist in the learning experience of students by assisting the development of skills to begin the conversations on difficult or uncomfortable discussions.
Through interactive sessions, students will be challenged to step out of their comfort zones and practice communication techniques that foster understanding, empathy and employ strategies to learn from one another. By encouraging students to navigate challenging topics the program builds confidence, civil discourse skills and stronger interpersonal connections.
Case Chats is meant to foster conversations one round table at a time.

Following the presentation, participants will break into small, moderated groups for interactive discussions, offering an opportunity to dive deeper into topics such as air quality, energy use, and broader environmental impacts.
