Empathy, Inquiry, and Civic Dialogue
Earners engage with complex societal and human issues through TCC’s Common Book and related programming. By participating in discussions, events, and reflective activities, they enhance critical thinking, empathy, and civic awareness—skills that support inclusive communication, ethical reasoning, and global perspective. These competencies are foundational to collaboration and leadership in diverse, values-driven workplaces.
