At times of conflict—when the world is looking with dismay at the devastating loss of life, or when disagreement about politics, policy, or values is dividing communities near and far—many are looking for ways to create common ground on campus. How can we make room for agreement as well as disagreement, discovery, and learning?
In this spirit—which is also the spirit of our Core Curriculum—Arts and Sciences is offering a series of Community Discussions that will bring together faculty with relevant expertise and students who want to join the conversation, welcoming diverging perspectives to build greater mutual understanding.
“Community Discussion: Racism, Antisemitism, and Islamophobia”
Tuesday, November 28, 3:30-5pm
Calder Lounge, Uris Hall
Participants: Rebecca Kobrin (Russell and Bettina Knapp Associate Professor of American Jewish History; Co-Director, Institute for Jewish Studies), Emmanuelle Saada (Professor of French; Chair, Department of French), and Claudia Breger (Villard Professor of German and Comparative Literature; Chair, Department of Germanic Languages)
