Description:

We will be hosting a "deep questions" event. Participants will split into pairs and take turns answering an open-ended question. Then, you get paired up with someone else and repeat the process with a different question.

The activity will begin at 1:30 pm and take about 1 hour. The rest of the time will be spent on open discussion.

Venue: 

McLennan Library Building at McGill. 3459 Mc Tavish St
Room: HSSL - M5-37A
Directions to room: Inside McLennan Library Building, take the stairs or one of the elevators to the 5th floor. Take the door on your right. Room M5-37A is the first door on your left

Date & Time: Saturday, February 4th, 2023 at from 1-3pm.

RSVPing is not mandatory but is recommended as it encourages others to come.

COWEN: What can we all do to become better listeners? I mean to other human beings, not of music, not yet.

RUBIN: I would start with the thought to truly hope to understand what the other person is saying. Most of us when listening are formulating an opinion either in response — what are we going to say in response, what do I think about this — or, looking for something to disagree with, or a piece to latch onto. We take a little piece and then tune out from what’s being said. Say any ability to turn our own filters off, forget about what we think, not be analytical at all, and only listen with the idea of truly understanding what the person is communicating.
