Program Details
Freedom of expression thrives within a culture of civility and empathy. DxD was designed to foster a community of learners among students, faculty, and staff, and to strengthen the critical skills necessary to confront challenging viewpoints and hold difficult conversations with mutual respect.
This seed grant funding opportunity supported collaborative faculty-led projects consistent with the goals of the DxD initiative that engage our campus community.
