Thursday, April 29, 7:00 p.m. at the Nonstop Institute
AAUP President Cary Nelson joins Nonstop for a live video teleconference discussion concerning the state of the humanities today based on insights gathered since the publication of his 2010 book, No University Is an Island: Saving Academic Freedom.
In addition to his long standing work as a distinguished professor of modern poetry and literary theory, Nelson is widely recognized as a committed commentator, advocate and activist for socially-just institutional practice, academic freedom and higher education reform. Frequently situated as a voice of social conscience in national debate on higher education, Professor Nelson has in recent years generously shared his ongoing educational research with Nonstop, and we are pleased to welcome him back to discuss the current situation for progressive liberal education and possible paths ahead.
Please join us for this third event of our Higher Education Dialogues video conference series on April 29 at Nonstop in keeping this vital conversation alive across the community served by educational ideals and practices that strive to walk the walk to match the talk.
