The recently-established Student Civility Initiative (SCI) will begin its campus outreach this week by holding four “Ship Values” discussion sessions. The meetings were to begin Monday, but the Monday session was canceled because of bad weather.
The SCI was launched in response to several incidents in the fall semester that Shippensburg University President Laurie Carter said strayed far from the core values of the university.
“I encourage you to attend the sessions that begin this conversation and share your vision on how we define what it means to be a Raider,” Carter said in the email.
Dean of Students Donna Gross and Director of Multicultural Student Affairs Dianne Jefferson are co-directing the initiative.
The second of the four sessions will take place on Tuesday at 3:30 p.m. in Room 105, and Anchor Meeting Room 3 in the Ceddia Union Building. The third and fourth sessions will take place simultaneously on Wednesday at 8 p.m. in the Kieffer Hall Great Room and the Naugle Hall Multipurpose Room, respectively.
