The Friday CWSC On-Air Roundtable on American Muslim 360 (AM360) is sponsored by the Community Wide Shuraa Conference (CWSC). From panel discussions to guest interviews, the CWSC Roundtable is the place for constructive dialogue on the good things happening and on chronic issues we face, including dealing with the cultural barriers to operational excellence. CWSC Friday Roundtables are an opinion, viewpoints, and perspectives discussion. Roundtable views expressed by panelists or hosts are not necessarily the official position of the CWSC, Inc.

Roundtables air each Friday 8 – 10 am EST. Regular host is Mark Shahid. Click here to listen to a Roundtable Discussion. Check the CWSC Events Calendar for already reserved dates. Then complete the following request at least 3 weeks in advance of your requested date.

Note: You can also schedule an off-air roundtable or Learning Lab for possible pre-recorded broadcast later at AM360. Learning Labs are excellent for extended specialized sessions to help develop skills, technical knowledge, or other expertise for improving CWSC operations and administration or conveying other useful information to assist volunteers and institutions.  CWSC may approve your presentation for either an on-air or off-air format. For questions email info@cwsc.us.
