Dilemma of the Month
Are you down to chat about a dilemma with your peers over lunch? These events happen ~3 times per semester on-campus for 45 minutes. We provide multifaceted context on a disputed topic, and let a respectful discussion spark from there. Oh, and let’s not forget about the free food! 🍕🥪
