News at Noon

Sponsored by The Current and The New York Times

News at Noon is a weekly forum for faculty and student discussions about current events. Each Wednesday discussion will be lead by a faculty expert. Living in a democracy carries the responsibility of being an informed citizen. Join friends and faculty members on Wednesdays to consider how current events are presented in the media, and a free lunch is provided to the first 25 students, courtesy of The New York Times.
