In our increasingly polarized and disconnected society, it is crucial that we learn how to speak across political and personal divides. Without this, we lose the ability to work together to tackle today and tomorrow's issues or even to feel like we are part of a national community. Thankfully we can learn to do better, and in doing so improve our nation and our world. Spend a few days at Alma College with other high school students and learn how! At the Doing Democracy Summer Seminar you will learn to: Use proven strategies to talk and listen across difference Constructively handle political and personal conflicts Examine current issues from multiple perspectives, and find solutions Work productively with people you disagree with During the seminar you will not only learn about democracy, but you will also practice democracy. Includes room and board at Alma College Schedule Students are dropped off on the evening of June 16 Students are picked up on the evening of June 20 On the evening of June 20 there will be an event for parents/caregivers
