What students say about their experiences in Intergroup Dialogue

“I don’t know of any twelve week span where I’ve learned so much about myself or any other group of individuals... It’s learning and practicing and transforming your dialogue skills, I’ve been using them with friends and family.”

“Through this class, I can apply what I’ve learned to everyday life. I’m now more aware of the lack of LGBT membership in Greek Life. I’m leaving this class with wanting to reverse the student racial segregation on this campus. I’ve never felt that I’ve had the power to make a difference. Being in an environment where everyone wanted to make a difference was really inspiring.”

“The student testimonials were some of the most spiritual experiences that I’ve ever experienced. It’s no longer about statistics, you have a face and person you get to know inside and out and it makes everything so much more real.”

The intergroup dialogue logo appearing on our website was developed by Michelle Bersani ('09), a former intergroup dialogue student, and recipient of the Chancellor's Feinstone Grant to support the development of communication materials for the Intergroup Dialogue Program.

“When we gave testimonials, I felt a connection and an understanding of where others in the class were from. I felt an immediate bond with my classmates because I could relate to them. And little did I know how close I was going to be with them by the end of the semester. Even now, I feel like I could recite what every student said in his or her testimonial."
