SNF Ithaca National Student Dialogue

​The annual headline event of the SNF Ithaca Initiative is the National Student Dialogue, which brings together a diverse group of college students from across the country to discuss, debate, and develop policy solutions that would benefit from bi-partisan collaboration. Over the course of a weekend, the event celebrates student leaders and facilitates discussions, panels, and town halls that train students to more effectively and respectfully engage with one another in policy discussions on their campuses and in their communities.​
