Community Talks

On Tuesday, Jan. 14, more than 150 members of the DU community gathered in Maglione Hall for the first Community + Values event of 2020.The first in a series of “Community Talks” addressed creative ideas for building community through the voices of four of our community members: an alumnus, faculty member, undergraduate student and coach.

These highly individual and captivating talks explored the question of how to create community on a new planet where none exists. We heard how concepts of planting seeds of kindness, empathy and compassion, unity with trust, and embracing differences during adversity all play a crucial role in establishing healthy and thriving communities.
