Title:
Red or Blue? Political Conversations in the Classroom
Facilitator:
Tim McMahon and Tina Gutierez-Schmich
Date:
10/8/2008 3:00:00 PM
Description:
A recent article in “The Chronicle of Higher Education” was entitled “What Not to Say in Class During an Election Season” (September 19, 2008). In it the author described classroom situations involving political issues that can be challenging for faculty, one example being what do you do when a student asks for your political beliefs? In this workshop we will discuss this and related situations and explore what faculty can do to handle these potentially loaded issues in a way that is productive and fair to all students.
