Embracing Hallmark 5:
Mission and Inclusion in Notre Dame de Namur Education
Taube Center at Notre Dame de Namur University1500 Ralston Ave.Belmont, CA 94002
Join colleagues from across our Notre Dame Learning Communities for a dynamic, interactive workshop designed to strengthen our capacity for civil discourse and deepen our commitment to the dignity of each person, inclusion, and justice. Together, we will explore the question: “As a Notre Dame Learning Community, how do we reverence each member and create systems of inclusion through civil discourse?”
Engaging in reflection, dialogue, and shared learning, we’ll consider how our distinctive values and the Seven Hallmarks of a Notre Dame de Namur Learning Community guide the ways we treat one another and nurture right relationships. Rooted in restorative justice principles, this session offers space for open dialogue, meaningful reflection, and practical strategies to foster understanding, connection, and hope in our shared work.
Please register/RSVP by January 9, 2026
This is an in-person event. Wine and appetizers will be served before and after the program.
