All UP faculty and staff are welcome to participate in the Faith and Intellectual Life Discussion Group. We read and discuss ideas that matter in a convivial gathering two Friday afternoons each term, fortified by snacks and libations. Meetings are 3:30–5PM in the Murphy Room, on the fourth floor of Franz Hall. Links to readings will be posted here well in advance of the discussion date.
9/28, 11/9, 1/25 and 3/22 (all Fridays)
3:30-5PM Murphy Room
