Civility Is: A Rutgers Perspective

projectcivility.rutgers.edu/​​

Project Civility is a two-year, university-wide dialogue at Rutgers, the State University of New Jersey, sponsored by the Offices of Student Affairs and Undergraduate Education at Rutgers—New Brunswick. Launched in September 2010, the university community is focusing its attention on civility in the context of one of the most culturally and racially diverse research universities in the U.S. We ask ourselves: Who are we, the members of the Rutgers community? How are we getting along with one another? How might we improve the quality of our day-to-day interactions? Featuring a wide array of discussions, lectures, and student-driven activities, Project Civility engages faculty, students, and all Rutgers personnel in an ongoing inquiry about the nature of true respect for others—an inquiry that demands our openness to hear, to learn, to teach, and to change.
