 Students are expected to attend every class meeting and participate actively. Meaningful and constructive dialogue is crucial for this class and this requires a degree of mutual respect, willingness to listen, and tolerance of opposing points of view. Respect for individual differences and alternative viewpoints will be maintained at all times in this class. One’s words and use of language should be temperate and students are encouraged to proactively build-up the ideas of others. Simulatenously, real change (emotional, intellectual and social) does not happen without effort, disruption and discomfort, as such, students are also encouraged to challenge the ideas of their peers and well as their own beliefs.

Your suggestions for how to better our classroom community are always encouraged and appreciated.
