Summary

ACTA's Program Coordinator for the College Debates and Discourse Alliance, Kayla Johnston , returns to her alma mater, the University of North Carolina (UNC)–Greensboro , for a conversation with two student leaders: Lauren Fletcher and Matt Kircher . Thanks to the generous support of the Barnes Family Foundation , the College Debates and Discourse Alliance has brought its debates and dialogues to over 11 institutions within the UNC System. As Lee Barnes Campus Debate Student Fellows , Ms. Fletcher and Mr. Kircher have organized several Braver Angels debates at UNC–Greensboro since the fall of 2023. Together, they reflect on how our programming has helped revive a culture of open dialogue, viewpoint diversity, and free expression on campus.
