The Mediation program met at Buchanan Alumni House from September 22-24, bringing participants together for three days of learning and collaboration.

Participant Amanda Comeau shared her experience:

"Will’s coaching style made the difficult work of jumping right into role plays feel like a shared learning experience in which mistakes were a welcome part of the process. With so many opportunities to interact as a cohort, we were at ease with one another very quickly and I felt that we were all learning with and from one another."
