Jose is a big fan of graphic novels. He decides that he wants to start a club at his school to bring students together who share the same interest. He gets a faculty advisor and posts flyers, and about 10 people show up to the club’s first meeting. However, instead of the interesting conversations he was hoping for, the group discussion devolves into an intense debate over which of two authors is better. What is likely the BEST way for Jose to turn things around?
Answer
A
Identify the students creating the conflict and tell them that they cannot join.
B
Initiate a set format for the club, like choosing a novel a week for everyone to read.
C
Split up the club members so that everyone can choose a side and not interact with the others.
D
Appoint himself the leader so that his word is law and debates can be quickly resolved.
Explanation
A clear, shared activity can focus the club on its common interest and give members a more constructive way to participate. Choosing a graphic novel each week for everyone to read creates a structure for discussion, rather than letting the meeting become a contest over which author is better. Excluding members, separating them, or making one person’s opinion final would not build an inclusive club.
