Our life stories converged when we were colleagues and friends for 10 years on the faculty of Princeton University. Notwithstanding our different backgrounds, we are both alarmed by the climate on campuses and the polarizing and dehumanizing language visible throughout society. Faculty and students on some campuses across the country have reported feeling unsafe in light of verbal and physical attacks. The polarizing talk in media, political and campus circles create an environment lacking in sophistication and nuance. There is no better place for these discussions than a university campus.

The class is offered through Columbia’s School of International and Public Affairs, a graduate school where tuition is more than $65,000 per year. The spokeswoman declined to share details of Mrs. Clinton’s compensation or how it compared to that of other faculty members. More than 800 students applied to take the class, submitting essays for consideration; about 370 graduate and undergraduate students were accepted. Lectures will focus on topics like whether groups make better decisions than individuals and how public opinion influences foreign policy. Among the assigned readings: “How to Stand Up to a Dictator” by Maria Ressa, and sections from Mrs. Clinton’s 2014 memoir “Hard Choices,” in which she recounted her years as secretary of state during the Obama administration.
