First-year students participate in Husker Dialogues, an annual event designed to foster open, meaningful conversations about diversity and inclusion at Nebraska U.

Students are encouraged to engage in active listening and ask questions that help them better understand others’ perspectives, challenge their own thinking and build a more cohesive campus community.

Remaining Husker Dialogues sessions are Sept. 13 and 14 in the Nebraska Union, and Sept. 15 online. Learn more about the program.
