Community Dialogues seeks to cultivate connection and deep learning through exploration of critical and contentious issues. Utilizing the National Issues Forum model, the Community Dialogues program aims to engage OSU community members in dialogue which deepens understanding of critical issues and the tensions within them, encourages insight into different perspectives, and inspires both individual and collective socio-political action.

The goal of the course is to introduce new OSU faculty and staff to key concepts for diversity, equity and inclusion as well as orient participants to institutional expectations, resources, and learning opportunities. As a way to continue to promote positive engagement and experiences among all faculty and staff, Oregon State University invites all new faculty and staff to complete this course, which focuses on OSU’s history and commitments to diversity and inclusion.
