Five Harvard chaplains discussed the importance of dialogue and listening to opposing viewpoints amid ongoing tensions on campus in the wake of violence in the Middle East at a Tuesday panel.

The panel, titled “What it Means to Be a Good Neighbor,” was held at the Smith Campus Center as part of Harvard Dialogues, a University-wide initiative to promote the “ability to engage in respectful and robust debate.” The series — which includes workshops and discussions for Harvard affiliates — began last Friday and will run through the end of this week.

Mans stands in front of a screen projecting U.S. Senator Mitt Romney in an auditorium.Circumstances shift, priorities change, and money comes and goes. But in a world where even facts seem to be at war with each other, U.S. Sen. Mitt Romney said Monday that a person’s values tend to be constant and ought to be heeded.

“When you go into an enterprise, go into a job, if you start compromising on your values, you’re going to find that maybe you’ll be more successful — I don’t know the answer to that — but I know you’re not going to be as healthy or as happy,” he said.
