Despite the fact\u2014or, perhaps, because of the fact\u2014that global, national, and even local society is more interconnected than ever, we are also deeply polarized. All too often we find ourselves unable to communicate meaningfully and effectively across divides of identity, belief, and geography. It may even be difficult to define what meaningful and effective communication might look like and how to set our goals. This is a hands-on, skill-building course. Students will seek to understand how and why to improve as empathetic and curious\u00a0communicators by practicing various methodologies and subjecting their experiences to analyses based in scholarly discussion.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<hr \/>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center\">Landscape of our Memory<\/h2>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center\"><span style=\"color: #333333\">Gabriela Buli\u0161ov\u00e1 and Marc Isaac (Prague)<\/span><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>Kresge Gallery, Berrie Center, 果冻传媒 College<br \/>\n<\/strong><strong>September 16 (opening reception) \u2013 December 4<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"row colSet\">\n<div class=\"sColumn col-sm-12 col-md-12 \">\n<div id=\"attachment_5111\" style=\"width: 208px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5111\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-5111\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ramapo.edu\/holocaust\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2026\/07\/Screenshot-2026-07-28-at-12.51.47-PM-e1785259978684-198x300.png\" alt=\"Anthotype portrait.
