On Civil Discourse at Rutgers

“To excel in our mission as a community requires that we engage in genuine curiosity and commit ourselves to understanding one another—even around the most difficult and divisive topics. Let us also pledge to practice civility in our discourse. We can disagree—even strongly—without shouting each other down. Let’s take a moment to hear what the other has to say. Listening is not acceptance, but it can be educative, and it can help us become better speakers and better thinkers.”

Jonathan Holloway
Rutgers President and University Professor
