What if there was something you could do right here on this campus to help preserve our democracy, while simultaneously sharpening your thinking and expanding your understanding of the world? Would you do it? The Certainty Trap leads us to view people who disagree as ignorant or hateful. Avoiding it is on us.

Please join us for a lunchtime conversation with Vice Chancellor’s Faculty Fellow Ilana Redstone about some of the underlying assumptions that distance us from one another and how we can engage each other with more openness and curiosity.
