About the Day of Common Learning

Now in its 19th year, the Day of Common Learning (this year, known as the Days of Common Learning) is a campuswide event in which students, faculty, staff, and people from the greater Seattle area have the opportunity to engage in deep thought and conversation around a topic of interest and concern.

All events are free and open to the public, and this year the events are online.
