The Community Track centers belonging as the foundation for an inclusive and meaningful GW experience. It supports students in building connections in their residence halls and across campus by fostering shared moments of pride, fun, and school tradition. Through relationships, campus resource awareness, and reflection, students develop habits of mutual responsibility, care, and contribution to the GW community.
- Conflict Resolution

The Conflict Resolution Track empowers students to navigate interpersonal challenges through restorative approaches that emphasize accountability, empathy, and being in community. By reflecting on the impact of their actions and engaging in open dialogue, students develop skills in problem-solving, communication, and mutual understanding. This track supports personal and community success by fostering resilience and moving through conflict.
- Personal Growth

The Personal Growth Track supports student success by building the capacity to engage with new ideas while navigating academic and career experiences.

This track encourages continuous growth as students shape their path with intention and purpose.
- Empathy

The Empathy Track encourages students to explore their own identities and those of others through an intersectional and inclusive lens. By engaging in dialogue, reflection, and shared experiences, students build emotional intelligence, deepen cultural understanding, and strengthen their capacity for connection across differences.
