Intellectual Hospitality

“In the classroom, the concept of intellectual hospitality occurs when students engage with unfamiliar ideas, read books from unknown authors, and entertain new ways of looking at the world…Intellectual hospitality encourages us to engage with new ideas, not merely contradict, dismiss, dispute, reject or ridicule them.” – Diana Glyer

“Such hospitality to new perspectives includes a sense of curiosity, and is the basis for learning.” – Cherie Harder
