Michigan State University (MSU) is set to continue its Conversations on Antisemitism and Islamophobia series this spring. The program, which began in 2023, serves as a continuation of the MSU Dialogues initiative.

This year's series will feature four sessions where faculty experts will discuss the history and current forms of antisemitism and Islamophobia. These discussions will focus on incidents that have occurred globally, nationally, and within the MSU community. Participants are encouraged to share their observations and ideas to help foster inclusivity at MSU.

The scheduled meeting times are as follows: January 17 from 11 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. in Case Hall's JMC Library Room 332; January 24 from 11 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. in Case Hall's Club Spartan Room 338; February 7 from 11 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., again in the JMC Library Room; and February 21 during the same hours in the same location.

There is no cost for participation, though attendees are requested to be present at all sessions if possible. Registration is recommended, with complimentary lunch provided for participants.

For students, attending these conversations may count as an Honors Option. Faculty and staff participation might be considered during annual reviews and promotions.
