This retro card deck will teach you old-timey conversation skills to build connection faster, facilitate authentic sharing, and navigate differences gracefully. Not like any class you will find in a classroom, the evening will be filled with lighthearted activities to practice the art of talking.\u00a0Pizza will be served. Monday, October 5th from 5-7pm in North Quad\u2019s Space 2435.\n\n2) Pizza and Playdecks\u00a0Come play The Pluralism Playdeck, a low-key scaffolded card\ngame designed to allow university students to practice the soft skills they need to\nengage in compassionate and honest conversations about hot-button issues across\nideological and demographic differences. You'll learn about yourself, others, and develop a skill set that will serve you well in both social and professional settings. Lunch will be served. Free copies of the Pluralism Playdeck will be available to take home. Tuesday, October 6th from 12:00-1:30 in the Rackham West Conference Room.\n\n3) The Open Spoon: Belonging Join us for a facilitated evening of low-key storytelling on a theme. Bring a story or just come to listen. Liz Barney from the Open Spoon will facilitate this informal exchange of stories about a time when participants felt a sense of belonging. A cross between a campfire and a dorm room chat, the Open Spoon lets you see the world through other eyes for a night.\u00a0Food will be served.
