As part of the Colorado State University Year of Democracy, the university is announcing five nationally known speakers who will visit campus during the spring semester.
CSU’s Thematic Year of Democracy is a university-wide initiative that invites members of the campus community to participate in conversations, panels and events all focused on democracy. Every activity highlights ways we can each engage in our democracy.
“CSU is ideally positioned – and as a public land-grant university, has a unique responsibility – to be a leader in readying citizens to participate in all facets of civil society,” said CSU President Amy Parsons. “Intentionally welcoming leaders with diverse perspectives and backgrounds to our campus for productive dialogue is a perfect example of our efforts to increase conversation and understanding.”
Join as presenters with diverse viewpoints discuss their work as public servants; advocates for social and political issues; community leaders; and participants in civic life. This is part of CSU’s commitment to produce well-educated citizens who are ready to converse, to vote, to run for office and to engage in all aspects of civil society.
