Civitas comes from the Latin word for city or citizenship. It's about how we live with one another in community. Many feel interpersonal behavior has deteriorated in American life, including at colleges.

American University in Washington DC is a leader in a recent movement to raise consciousness of how we treat one another on campus. In January it hosted a PaperClip Communications conference "Flipping the Switch: Encouraging Civility on Campus." Four panelists described AU's CIVITAS campaign for civility and responsible citizenship:

* Katsura Kurita Beltz, director of judicial affairs and mediation services, and CIVITAS campaign chair

* Tiffany Sanchez, director of new student programs

* Bernie Schulz, special assistant to the vice president of campus life

* Sara Waldron, associate dean of students
