Tired of polarizing rancor, food-fight media, and constant “gotcha” bickering? Try befriending someone from the “other side” whose views differ greatly from your own. You might learn lots. We did.

SPEAKERS:

  • Mark Pinsky (’70): leftist social critic, Jewish, career journalist (Los Angeles Times, Orlando Sentinel; The Hill regular contributor)
  • Rusty Wright (’71): evangelical Christian writer, international lecturer; frequent Washington Examiner contributor

Moderated by Sue Wasiolek (T’76, MHA ’78, LL.M ’93), CDP Professor, former Associate VP of Student Affairs & Dean of Students at Duke.
