Subject: CTE special sessions next week: Navigating difficult post-election dialogues with students

Dear Colleagues,

The presidential election has generated divisive rhetoric on both sides of the political spectrum. Some people feel empowered even as others feel vulnerable and threatened. That creates a complicated role for instructors, who must balance the supporting roles of educator and mentor while leading challenging and potentially heated discussions. What's the best way to do that?

Join us for a conversation next week at the Center for Teaching Excellence in 135 Budig Hall. Two sessions will be offered: Tuesday, November 15, and Wednesday, November 16, both from 12 to 1 PM. Choose the one session that fits into your schedule.

Lunch will be provided. Please note that space is limited. RSVP to me, Judy Eddy, at jeddy at ku.edu<mailto:jeddy at ku.edu>, and let me know if you have any dietary needs.

Best wishes,
Judy
