Are you in your first year at K-State? Join us for a K-State tradition – Wildcat Dialogues.
Mark your calendars for 7-9 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 8! Wildcat Dialogues is an intercultural learning and leadership event designed for all first-year K-State students. This evening provides an opportunity for meaningful dialogue and building connections, as we work to create a community of belonging for all.
During Wildcat Dialogues, you will:
- Learn how to create communities of belonging
- Build cross-cultural relationships through meaningful dialogue
- Engage in active listening, empathy and perspective-taking
- Build a skillset to understand cultural differences and similarities
Wildcat Dialogues is one of K-State’s signature intercultural learning events for all new students. During this event, we will gather together with hundreds of other students in the K-State Student Union ballroom to hear first from some of your fellow students about their identities and how those have shaped their experiences here and beyond K-State. Afterwards, you will break out into smaller groups of 8-10 students, and be led through a conversation by a trained facilitator to share your own story.
RSVP by Sunday, Nov. 5:
