Are you confused about how to know what’s true? Or about how best to live? Or how to even approach these questions?
In open-ended roundtable discussions, our multi-disciplinary panel of experts will address such questions as: What is love? How do we know what is the best way to live, to promote human flourishing? Are there empirical answers to these? Are quantitative approaches enough? What other modes of understanding do we need? And how can we integrate or balance the differing assumptions, methods and conclusions of our various fields and disciplines—making the multi-disciplinarity of the liberal arts akin to being multi-cultural or multi-lingual?
