Where do young people come down on questions of faith, values, and public life? How do they relate their values to public policy issues including education, economic inequality, and the environment? These questions, critically important for the 2012 election, are at the center of a campus conversation being organized by the Berkley Center and Georgetown University. This blog features an ongoing conversation about these issues between students selected as Millennial Values Fellows through a national competition. You can read and comment on their blogs here.

Religious and Atheist Millennials Share Common Ground
August 30, 2012
While the Millennial Values Survey found college-age Millennials more likely than the general population to be religiously unaffiliated and less likely to hold traditional or orthodox religious beliefs, many of the Millennial Values fellows noted the continued importance of religion in America today. In this video blog, fellows Colin Steele and Emily Atkinson discuss ways that religious and non-religious Millennials may be able to find common ground by recognizing their shared motivation to pursue a meaningful life — regardless of where they find that meaning.
