Event Details

In the second year of this annual event sponsored by the deans of the GTU’s member schools, a panel of scholars nominated by the faculties of each of the schools will offer a short, pointed answer to this question: to what extent does an economy of consumption affect our own moral imagination, and how can our moral imagination affect how we understand relationships of consumption?

Each panelist will name one’s presuppostions or perspective and articulate the main points of a response to the question in five minutes or less. The co-chairs will then lead a conversation between the panelists and between the panelists and audience. The meeting will take place in the Dinner Board Room.

This year’s conversation brings together Eric Sias (BST); Fr. Brad Elliott, O.P. (DSPT); Ahmed Khater (GTU); Dr. Thomas Calobrisi (IBS); Leocadie Lushombo (JST); Sheryl Johnson (PLTS); Heesung Hwang (PSR); and Laurie Garrett-Cobbina (SFTS), reflecting the breadth of scholarship across the consortium.
