This article discusses a new initiative at Harvard, the President's Building Bridges Fund, which supports four student-led projects designed to foster dialogue among students from various backgrounds. Activities such as meals and discussions will serve as platforms for these projects, aiming to bridge divides and facilitate tough conversations. President Alan M. Garber emphasizes the importance of changing campus culture and creating connections through these dialogues, while the chief diversity and inclusion officer, Sherri Charleston, notes the thoughtfulness of the project proposals submitted by students. The initiative represents a step towards cultivating understanding and collaboration across diverse viewpoints.
Through meals, discussion, and games, four student-led projects will kick off this spring in hopes of convening students from different backgrounds and viewpoints to encourage tough conversations and bridge divides.
