About the Center for Civil Discourse
We believe that in today’s polarized society it is necessary to teach and practice tolerance through non-partisan, open-minded conversation about controversial and important topics. Pennoni Honors College’s Center for Civil Discourse serves as a gathering place for students, staff, faculty, and members of the community to openly discuss, debate, disagree, and engage with opposing viewpoints through panel discussions, casual conversations and interviews. The Center serves as a role model for how we should conduct ourselves as citizens.
