Seeking Undergrad Students for Dartmouth Dialogue Video Project

The Dartmouth Dialogue Project seeks to prepare the Dartmouth community with the mindset and skills necessary to engage in successful dialogue, even in the face of the most emotionally or politically charged disagreements. Learning how to forge mutual understanding across differences (of opinion, perspective, background, purpose, etc.) is fundamental to all other types of learning, as well as to positive civic participation and leadership.

For the video project, we are seeking the assistance of 6-8 undergraduate Dartmouth students to find an instructive way to engage our first-year students with this preparation. Resources are available for renting equipment. This is a paid opportunity. Applications are due March 1^st. Apply here.
