Optional Lunch Conversation for Students
Election week is often an exciting time—but it can also be contentious, confusing, and unsettling. To support students as they prepare for the election and process the results, we are offering a series of optional lunch discussions. Some will provide space for students to talk about the election and to learn more about civics, while others are designed to provide space for students to decompress and talk about something other than the election. Teams invites will be sent to students and all are welcome to join any conversation that interests them! Questions? Contact Student Activities Coordinator Sam Baldwin.
