Finding one’s identity is a challenge most students face, but representing a religious identity can be especially daunting. Universities are places that value diversity in ideas, but they often seem less welcoming to notions and practice of religious faith. How can students represent who they are in a diverse and manifestly secular community? Duke Chapel Dean Sam Wells and Assistant Director of Jewish Life at Duke Rabbi Rabbi Jeremy Yoskowitz will join us for this conversation.
This event is cosponsored by the Duke Undergraduate Faith Council, the Episcopal Center at Duke, and the Duke Jewish Student Union.
iThink meets in the Breedlove Room of Perkins Library Wednesday, January 25th from 6-7:30 p.m. This event is free and open to the public.
The iThink: An Ethics Cafe series consists of intimate and informal discussion events that focus on a new topic each session and provide an opportunity for undergraduate students to talk about ethics in a fun and relaxed atmosphere. Contact Christian Ferney for more information.
