For Administrators
Our tools can be implemented across an entire campus to provide students with a shared language and set of skills to navigate their differences effectively.
The Inclusion Challenge
According to a 2021 Heterodox Academy survey, 88% of students believe that colleges should "encourage students to interact respectfully with people whose beliefs differ from their own." However, 60% of students noted that they would be reluctant to discuss controversial topics on their campus.
Colleges across the country are grappling with the challenge of fostering a truly inclusive campus climate that reconciles the tensions between diversity & inclusion and open dialogue. We're here to help.

We offer live trainings for staff, faculty, and student leaders to support your campus dialogue initiatives in curricular and co-curricular settings.
