Deeper Dialogue Events

The Applied Behavioral Sciences Division at Cuesta College is pleased to introduce "Deeper Dialogues",

a gathering for deeper listening, deeper conversation, and meaningful civic engagement—while exploring

the hard questions of our time.  The guiding intention behind Deeper Dialogues is to create a respectful

space for giving voice to our passionate disagreements on deep, contrasting convictions, not for the

purposes of trying to change anyone's mind but to support understanding across our divides.

September 25^th, 4-5:15pm, Room 4403, SLO Campus

Environmental Justice Immersion Room

Environmental Justice Immersion Room

Once a semester the Cultural Center will be choosing a topic
and creating an immersion room. An immersion room is set up
to be an immersive educational experience that can involve
interactive exhibits, film, audio and any element that would
contribute to absorbing and learning about an idea or concept.

 

This semester the center will be hosting an immersion room on
environmental justice.
