About this deal

This labelling and dividing are at the root of intolerance and disrespect in any sphere of life, not only in higher education. Probably, as Owolade suggests, the only way out this vicious circle is really to understand that we have a “shared fundamental humanity.” The clipart here has been invaluable for my special education class. The clear and relatable images aid in communication and understanding. It would be helpful to have a feature allowing teachers to request specific clipart tailored to special education needs." Spence explained that the alternative to disagreeing well is that either we start shouting at one another or that we self-centre and simply don't talk. We love using acronyms, but we usually overlook how they only give us a very small idea of the people who fall under that definition. Acronyms are simplifications and, as such, they often fail to capture the nuanced richness of who or what they represent.

VPEE Student Journalist, Giovanna Cantarin, shares her reflections of attending the first UCL Disagreeing Well event: Disagreeing Well in Higher Education. "But whose side are you on?" Friction creates things; from nothing, nothing is born. Perhaps, rather than political correctness, we should educate, and educate ourselves, to respect. Because if with the first we can only monologue, it is with the latter that we dialogue.

Reality is very different, full of contrasts and nuances: a massive chiaroscuro, and there are no simple answers to complex issues. “The role of universities as a forum for open discourse in an increasingly polarized world” This is a question we have all heard ourselves asked at least once in our lives, perhaps not very long ago. Given the recent events, many of us will have tried to confront our friends and classmates in search of firm truth– to find common ground on divisive topics. However, dissent can take different forms. There is a healthy disagreement, which recognises in the ‘other’ a person like us, and a depersonalising disagreement, which objectifies and belittles. While the first creates space for growth and personal development, the latter often results in hateful acts.

In his first intervention, Owolade pointed out how “we don’t speak about diversity with enough diversity.” The difference between disagreeing well and shouting at each other is, I believe, in maintaining mutual respect. Epistemic humility: accepting that we can be wrong and asking ourselves why other reasonable human beings think what they think. In this hour and a quarter, there was a lot of talk about several issues, and yet, what emerged in the end were not answers but only questions. "The consequence of living in a free society"On 9 November, I attended an interactive event chaired by the Chief Executive of the British Academy, Hetan Shah,at the Darwin Lecture Theatre. The theme "Disagreeing Well in Higher Education" was discussed by a brilliant panel consisting of our Union Affairs Officer at the Students' Union, Mary McHarg, and our President and Provost, Michael Spence, along with Professor Sasha Roseneil, Vice-Chancellor and President of the University of Sussex, and Tomiwa Owolade, journalist, author and UCL alumni. The clipart collection here is diverse and suits various themes. I've used it for my science fair project, and the diagrams and icons were just what I needed. It would be helpful to have a search filter for different file formats, like SVG and JPEG." Disagreement, as stated by Owolade during the event, is the inevitable “consequence of living in a free society.”
