Tuesday 17 November

What does "justice" mean for a university?  Does a focus on social problems or social justice enhance or constrain the institution?  What is the place of "moral values" in "objective scholarship"? Join scholar and writer Stanley Katz for an enlightening conversation about the purposes of liberal arts institutions. Katz is a scholar of American legal and constitutional history, civil society, international human rights, and philanthropy and non-profit institutions. His talk, co-sponsored by the Howard R. Swearer Center for Public Service and the Sheridan Center for Teaching and Learning, begins at 4:30 p.m. in Sidney Frank Hall, Marcuvitz Auditorium, 185 Meeting St.
