Teach-Out: Democracy and Civic Engagement
In this free and open learning event, explore how governments, elections, laws, information, and civic participation shape public life. Examine what supports democracies—and how corruption, misinformation, political division, and misuse of power can weaken them.
Alum 101: Democracy at Work
Join us for ALUM 101: The classes you never got to take, a series of free online mini-courses led by U-M faculty, staff, and alumni experts.
This fall’s course, Democracy at Work, will explore the foundations of healthy democracies, global democratic trends, elections and redistricting, and the role of social media.
Each 60-minute virtual lecture includes a Q&A, giving you the opportunity to learn alongside fellow Wolverines. Classes take place on Wednesdays at 6 p.m., beginning Sept. 9.
