*Subject:* *Please come to the first-ever HxA conference: June 15, NYC*


On Friday June 15, Heterodox Academy <http://heterodoxacademy.org/> will
host a day-long conference at The Times Center <http://thetimescenter.com/> in
Manhattan to explore ways to improve viewpoint diversity, open inquiry, and
constructive disagreement on college campuses. We have an extraordinary
list of speakers lined up, including the presidents of the University of
Chicago and Wesleyan University; Nadine Strossen (former president of
ACLU); Alice Dreger (formerly of Northwestern); Glenn Loury (Brown);
Richard Shweder (Chicago), and many others. You can see the full list here

for
leadership, courage, scholarship, and institutional excellence.

So many of us in higher education are puzzled by what is happening, and how
best to teach and lead in a rapidly changing campus climate, nested within
an increasingly polarized democracy whose problems are amplified by social
media. On June 15 we will make progress toward understanding our
predicament and our way forward.

before we begin advertising it to the general public next week. If you have
friends or students who might be able to attend, please forward this email
to them. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact Laura
Lalinde at lalinde@heterodoxacademy.org.
I hope you can join us in New York City. (The sessions will be recorded and
made available afterward, but it will be a lot more fun to be there,
together.)

A man's mind-what there is of it- has always the advantage of being
masculine, - as the smallest birch-tree is of a higher kind than the most
soaring palm, - and even his ignorance is of a sounder quality.
