Description:

Join this bi-weekly forum for open, thoughtful, and facilitated discussions on a range of stimulating topics. Share your perspectives, questions, and personal insights as we explore timeless and timely issues in our shared quest for wisdom and understanding.

Philosophy isn’t confined to scholars—it’s a discipline open to anyone eager to expand their mind and engage in meaningful dialogue.

Topics are:
Session 1: The Death of Expertise and the Decline of Trust
Session 2: Cultural Appropriation: Shared or Stolen?
Session 3: Drawing the Moral Line: Where does "us" end and "them" begin?
Session 4: "Getting Off On A Technicality": A failure or success of our justice system?

Instructor: Sharon Speevak is a retired lawyer with an undergraduate degree in History. She developed and facilitates a Philosopher's Cafe for a local community group and is eager to share this forum with students of Elder College.
