The role of institutions in educating young people goes beyond the classroom. Universities should provide forums for students to ask questions and address issues. Dartmouth's Middle Eastern and Jewish Studies departments have successfully organized forums with open discussions that hundreds of students have participated in. This model can be applied to address any issue. Inter-generational partnerships and open conversations are essential for successful activism and meaningful change.
