How do you reach mutual understanding amongst those with drastically divergent beliefs? Two Santa Fe College Ethics Bowl team members discuss how to approach challenging conversations with loved ones, friends and co-workers by finding common ground in opposing viewpoints. Join Liam Frank, SF alumni currently at the University of Florida, and Areli Villavicencio, SF student, as they reflect on experiences where they have found success in developing a mutual understanding. 

Sound clip:  Areli Villavicencio from 15:57 to 16:14 

The Center for Applied Ethics & Humanities at Santa Fe College (SF) promotes the values of honesty, integrity, and civility, as well as individual, social, and global responsibility. It fosters appreciation for ethical reasoning and encourages and supports active engagement with ethics and humanities in our communities – in thought and action, (((In Word And Deed))). This podcast, a product of the center, features SF faculty, students and alumni engaging in dialogue around critical ethical issues. The first season, "Dinner Table Dynamics," features current and former members of SF’s nationally ranked Ethics Bowl team and fellows in the Intercollegiate Civil Disagreement Partnership. They encourage listeners to practice civil discourse as they head home for the holidays, and into extended family discussions. Learn more at sfcollege.edu/ethics. Share your thoughts (and actions) with @santafecollege using #InWordAndDeed.
