SUMMARY:Religion in The Mandalorian
DESCRIPTION:Religion plays a major role in the storylines of The Mandalorian. Din Djarin adheres to the way of the Mandalorians even when this is difficult. Grogu is forced to choose between the religions of the Jedi and the Mandalorians. Bo Katan ridicules the religiously observant Children of the Watch\, who never let their faces be seen\, but a startling experience shakes her convictions. These stories raise a host of questions. What is religion? Is it primarily about practices or about beliefs? Does it have anything to do with truth? Can I be born into a religion\, or do I have to choose it? Is Christianity a religion? We will ask these questions and more as we both enjoy talking about the Star Wars universe and engage in deep thought about religion. This is the way.\n  \nYoung Philosophers is an online discussion for high-school-aged students. Join us for “Religion in The Mandalorian” on Thursday\, September 14\, from 4-6 p.m. Pacific time. The discussion will be led by Gutenberg tutor Brian Julian. Participants will get the most out of the class if they are familiar with seasons 1-3 of The Mandalorian as well as the Din Djarin and Grogu-focused episodes (5\, 6\, 7) of The Book of Boba Fett.\nAttendee Requirements: High-school age\nMaximum Attendees: 12 \nMore about Young Philosophers \nRegister Here for Zoom AttendanceBrian Julian joined the Gutenberg College faculty in 2021 after having taught philosophy and writing for several years at colleges in the Boston area. He holds a B.A. in liberal arts from Gutenberg College and a Ph.D. in philosophy from Boston University. He specializes in the history of philosophy and has published research on Aristotle. He writes (and cartoons) for Thinking in the Light\, a website where he aims to make philosophical ideas accessible to a general audience.

SUMMARY:2023 Education Conference: Faith and Learning
DESCRIPTION:In the last few centuries\, the intellectual world has slowly but steadily abandoned Christianity\, offering alternate secular perspectives to life’s most important questions. As a result\, Christian educators have become suspicious of “academia” and often seek to protect children from secular learning. In this conference\, we will explore the dual goals of pursuing learning and promoting faith. How do we foster faith\, encourage an interest in truth\, model confidence and humility\, and avoid rebellion—all while embedded in a hostile world? Because truth is faith’s greatest ally\, we can embrace open and honest inquiry\, trusting God to turn hearts to Him. \nGo here for details.\nRegister Here for EdCon 2023Sign Up for Conference Update Emails

SUMMARY:2023 Summer Institute: God Is Alive
DESCRIPTION:Over a century ago\, Friedrich Nietzsche famously declared that God is dead. He observed that Western culture no longer accepted the idea of God\, and he noted that its values and practices would eventually reflect this. We now live in a world that conforms in many ways to his prediction. \nBut as Christians we know—even if the culture doesn’t reflect it—that God is very much alive. What difference\, then\, should this make in the way we think and act? At Gutenberg’s 2023 Summer Institute\, we will examine several aspects of our world and our lives—science\, ethics\, psychology\, community—and we will consider the ways a belief in God should impact our thinking about them. Why are some differences we see between Christians and non-Christians so pronounced? In what ways might we be absorbing views that implicitly reject God? How can we be encouraged by recognizing God’s relevance to every area of our lives? Join us July 20-22 for book discussions\, talks from Gutenberg tutors\, good food\, and great conversations. \nGo here for details.\nRegister Here for SI 2023Sign Up for Conference Update Emails

SUMMARY:Technology in Marvel’s Wakanda Forever
DESCRIPTION:Behind a technological smokescreen hides the nation of Wakanda\, earth’s most powerful civilization. Wakanda’s innovations put them leagues ahead of other nations and grants them the power to aid those in need. Yet\, the Wakandans are reluctant to help. We might ask why? Is this reluctance just selfishness and fear\, or are there hidden costs in disseminating new technology? In this session of Young Philosophers\, we will investigate this question along with others such as: What exactly is technology? Does it have an ultimate purpose? Does technology hold an inherent ethical dimension\, or is the goodness or badness of technology merely relative to the one who wields it?\n \nYoung Philosophers is an online discussion for high-school-aged students. Join us for “Technology in Marvel’s Wakanda Forever” on Thursday\, June 29\, from 4-6 p.m. Pacific time. The discussion will be led by Gutenberg tutor Eliot Grasso. Participants should watch the movie before class.\nAttendee Requirements: High-school age\nMaximum Attendees: 12 \nMore about Young Philosophers \nRegister Here for Zoom AttendanceEliot Grasso is the vice president and a tutor at Gutenberg College where he teaches art seminars and leads discussions in Western Civilization and the Great Conversation. Eliot holds a B.A. in music from Goucher College (2005)\, an M.A. in ethnomusicology from the Irish World Academy of Music and Dance at the University of Limerick (2007)\, and a Ph.D. in musicology from the University of Oregon School of Music and Dance (2011). He has performed\, recorded\, taught\, and lectured on Irish traditional music internationally.

SUMMARY:Love in Pop Music
DESCRIPTION:Pop music is inescapable. We hear it in movies\, in commercials\, when shopping in stores\, when we turn it on ourselves to enjoy it. And amidst the catchy melodies and insistent beats\, quite often the lyrics sing about love. New love. Tragic love. Deep love. Unrequited love. Love that is so\, so incredibly over. Frequently we are so lost in the music that we don’t even pay attention to these lyrics… but what if we did? What is their conception of love\, and what do we think about it? Is love a feeling? What is it that we love—the way someone looks\, what it feels like to be with them\, the whole person? In this session\, we will examine a selection of popular songs from recent years (with a few classics thrown in) in order to think about what love is\, what our culture says about love\, and what to do with the fact that when we are listening to music we are simultaneously taking in ideas. \nYoung Philosophers is an online discussion for high-school-aged students. Join us for “Love in Pop Music” on Thursday\, May 11\, from 4-6 p.m. Pacific time. The discussion will be led by Gutenberg tutor Brian Julian. Participants will receive a Spotify playlist with the songs we will cover\, along with the lyrics\, and everyone should listen to the songs carefully at least once prior to the discussion. In addition\, participants should be mature enough to listen to and discuss the material: part of the goal is to think about what the culture is saying in some of its most prominent songs\, and while we will avoid songs that are grossly obscene\, a couple of the selections may have occasional expletives or PG-13 content. \nAttendee Requirements: High-school age\nMaximum Attendees: 12 \nMore about Young Philosophers \nRegister Here for Zoom AttendanceBrian Julian joined the Gutenberg College faculty in 2021 after having taught philosophy and writing for several years at colleges in the Boston area.

SUMMARY:Free Will in Marvel’s Loki
DESCRIPTION:Loki\, the god of Mischief\, has been detained by the Time Variance Association who employ him to catch a variant of himself to protect the sacred timeline and preserve the multiverse. Loki begrudgingly complies\, all the while maintaining that he is destined to be King while also being completely free to choose his own path. This presents a paradox: When Loki makes a choice\, does he do so by his own free will\, or are all of his so-called free choices pre-determined by He Who Remains\, the TVA’s puppet master? If a choice isn’t “free\,” is the chooser personally accountable for the choice? Is one’s purpose in life forged through personal decisions\, or is one’s life purpose assigned by a “higher power”? Is it possible for freedom to work alongside determinism\, or are they mutually exclusive? Together\, we will investigate the intersection of purpose\, freedom\, and personal responsibility.\nYoung Philosophers is an online discussion for high-school-aged students. Join us for “Free Will in Marvel’s Loki” on Thursday\, March 2\, from 4-6 p.m. Pacific time. The discussion will be led by Gutenberg tutor Eliot Grasso. Students should watch the entire first season of Loki before class.\nAttendee Requirements: High-school age\nMaximum Attendees: 12 \nMore about Young Philosophers \nRegister Here for Zoom AttendanceEliot Grasso is the vice president and a tutor at Gutenberg College where he teaches art seminars and leads discussions in Western Civilization and the Great Conversation.

SUMMARY:Young Philosophers: Ethics in Marvel's Infinity Wars
DESCRIPTION:In Avengers: Infinity War\, the fate of half the universe is at stake. Thanos is intent on making the world better by eliminating fifty percent of all living things. By contrast\, Captain America will not achieve his goal by sacrificing even one. This contrast raises many questions. Is there some merit to what Thanos is doing\, despite the fact that he is the villain? Should Captain America be a more flexible and realistic hero? What views of ethics underlie the diverging positions\, and how should we think about these? In asking these questions\, we must also keep in mind that Infinity War is not an ethical treatise\, but a film. How\, then\, does the language of film work—how does it blend narrative\, visual\, and audio to present us with ideas and impact our thinking?\nJoin us for an online discussion on Thursday\, June 30. Students should watch the entire film before class.

SUMMARY:Understanding Group Think and Selfhood with the Help of Hoffer and Orwell
DESCRIPTION:On May 18\, Colin Stetter will give the thirteenth talk in the series “It’s Complicated: The Histories Behind What We Think We Know?” \nThe past 100 years has seen the rise of a variety of mass movements\, promoting just as varied motives and goals. This class will explore Eric Hoffer’s The True Believer in an effort to understand what mass movements appeal to in the individual\, and what sort of person is especially attracted to mass movements. We will compare Hoffer’s ideas\, a “bottom up” approach\, to Orwell’s “top down” observations regarding the tools modern political structures employ to achieve mass obedience. \nCollin Stetter graduated from Gutenberg College in 2004\, passing his thesis with distinction\, having written on Marx and Solzhenitsyn’s views on the nature of man. He currently works as a manual and cnc machinist for an independent job shop in Eugene. His interests include hiking\, camping\, high-speed tactical larping\, reading the Bible and science fiction. He is a practitioner of Filipino Kali and is working on a theory of everything. So far he has resolved 742 things. He is married with two daughters. \nThis class may be attended in person at Gutenberg College or online via Zoom. There is a small charge for remote attendance. Registration is required to attend via Zoom. \nRegister for ZoomMore Information & Cost

SUMMARY:2023 Education Conference: Faith and Learning
DESCRIPTION:Fundamentally\, educating is the passing on of knowledge and values from one generation to the next to promote living wisely and well. As with all communication\, however\, the “how” of what we say impacts the “what.” A good educator is at root a good learner who models patient listening and skilled questioning. This year we will explore the “how” by focusing on the art of discussion\, where teachers become fellow learners and\, together with students\, cultivate a life-long passion for truth and a life well lived. \nGo here for details. \nRegister[/fusion_text][/fusion_builder_column][/fusion_builder_row][/fusion_builder_container]

SUMMARY:Reality in Nintendo's Breath of the Wild
DESCRIPTION:In The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild\, you run through waving fields of grass\, climb frigid mountains\, and cross expansive\, sandy deserts. With its huge\, open world to explore\, it is no wonder that it has appeared on lists of the best video games of all time. But\, of course\, no matter how realistic the game is\, the world you are exploring is not real… or is it? What about the beauty of the landscape and the rightness of defending the world from evil—are these real? Are you having real fun while you fight and explore? What does it mean for something to be real\, anyway? (Could the fields and mountains even be real in some sense???) Finally\, if video games are not as real as the world we live in\, does this mean that playing them is a waste of time? If you like video games and you like to ask questions\, come join us—this session is for you. \nYoung Philosophers is an online discussion for high-school-aged students. Join us for “Reality in Nintendo’s Breath of the Wild” on Thursday\, December 1\, from 4-6 p.m. Pacific time. The discussion will be led by Gutenberg tutor Brian Julian. Participants should have played Breath of the Wild enough to have some familiarity with it\, although they do not need to have completed the game. (For the record\, the instructor has defeated Calamity Ganon\, solved all 120 shrines\, and obtained the Master Cycle Zero\, but he has not found every korok.) \nAttendee Requirements: High-school age\nMaximum Attendees: 12 \nMore about Young Philosophers \nRegister Here for Zoom AttendanceBrian Julian joined the Gutenberg College faculty in 2021 after having taught philosophy and writing for several years at colleges in the Boston area.

SUMMARY:Summer Institute 2022:Stories of ConversionJuly 28-30
DESCRIPTION:Since its beginning\, a prominent aspect of Christianity has been the conversion narrative. Sometimes dramatic\, sometimes mundane\, these accounts tell the stories of how particular individuals committed their lives to Christ. For the 2022 Summer Institute\, we will read several of these accounts from throughout history\, and we will think about how these stories of particular people living in contexts that differ from our own might nevertheless impact our thinking now. What should we do with the inescapably personal aspects of these stories—can they still speak to someone who is considering Christianity? How can these stories provide encouragement to those who have been Christians for a while already? Is having a conversion experience necessary for being a Christian? Join us July 28-30 for discussions\, talks\, and food\, as we contemplate together these stories of conversion. \nGo here for more details.

SUMMARY:Young Philosophers:Ethics in Marvel's Infinity War
DESCRIPTION:In Avengers: Infinity War\, the fate of half the universe is at stake. Thanos is intent on making the world better by eliminating fifty percent of all living things. By contrast\, Captain America will not achieve his goal by sacrificing even one. This contrast raises many questions. Is there some merit to what Thanos is doing\, despite the fact that he is the villain? Should Captain America be a more flexible and realistic hero? What views of ethics underlie the diverging positions\, and how should we think about these? In asking these questions\, we must also keep in mind that Infinity War is not an ethical treatise\, but a film. How\, then\, does the language of film work—how does it blend narrative\, visual\, and audio to present us with ideas and impact our thinking? \nJoin us for an online discussion on Thursday\, June 30. Students should watch the entire film before class. \nAttendee Requirements: High-school age\nMaximum Attendees: 12\nMore about Young Philosophers\n\n  \nRegister Here for Zoom Attendance  \nLeading this session of Young Philosophers will be Dr. Eliot Grasso.

Eliot holds a B.A. in music from Goucher College\, an M.A. in ethnomusicology from the Irish World Academy of Music and Dance at the University of Limerick\, and a Ph.D. in musicology from the University of Oregon School of Music and Dance.

SUMMARY:The Legacy of Constantine
DESCRIPTION:On June 1\, Alexander Titus will give the fourteenth talk in the series “It’s Complicated: The Histories Behind What We Think We Know.” \nCelebrated as a hero by some and maligned as a villain by others\, Flavius Valerius Constantinus\, often regarded as the “first Christian emperor\,” represented a major shift in the history of Christianity\, one which has resonated throughout the centuries. For students of this history\, a person like Constantine naturally raises several questions: What was he really like? Was he really a Christian? How was he viewed by those who came after him? What impact did he have on official Church doctrine or on the Church’s relationship to the State? Why does he continue to be so controversial to this day? This class will examine the complex legacy of this pivotal yet polarizing figure. \nAlexander Titus is a Ph.D. candidate at Princeton Theological Seminary\, working in the areas of Byzantine and medieval Church history. He is in the final phases of completing his dissertation on Gregory Palamas’ early reception of the Corpus Dionysiacum. Alexander received a B.A. in Classics from the University of Oregon (2011)\, an M.A. in Theology (2015)\, and a Th.M. (2016)\, both from St Vladimir’s Orthodox Theological Seminary. His research and teaching interests are in intellectual and ecclesiastical history\, the theology of prayer and mystical experience\, and the implementation of Christian education within a classical framework. \nThis class may be attended in person at Gutenberg College or online via Zoom. There is a small charge for remote attendance. Registration is required to attend via Zoom. \nRegister for ZoomMore Information & Cost

SUMMARY:Understanding Group Think and Selfhood with the Help of Hoffer and Orwell
DESCRIPTION:On May 18\, Colin Stetter will give the thirteenth talk in the series “It’s Complicated: The Histories Behind What We Think We Know.” \nThe past 100 years has seen the rise of a variety of mass movements\, promoting just as varied motives and goals. This class will explore Eric Hoffer’s The True Believer in an effort to understand what mass movements appeal to in the individual and what sort of person is especially attracted to mass movements. We will compare Hoffer’s ideas\, a “bottom up” approach\, to Orwell’s “top down” observations regarding the tools modern political structures employ to achieve mass obedience. \nColin Stetter graduated from Gutenberg College in 2004 after writing a senior thesis (passed with distinction) on Marx’s and Solzhenitsyn’s views on the nature of man. He currently works as a manual and cnc machinist for an independent job shop in Eugene. His interests include hiking\, camping\, high-speed tactical larping\, reading the Bible\, and science fiction. He is a practitioner of Filipino Kali\, and is working on a theory of everything. So far he has resolved 742 things. He is married with two daughters. \nThis class may be attended in person at Gutenberg College or online via Zoom. There is a small charge for remote attendance.

SUMMARY:Young Philosophers:What Is Language?May 12
DESCRIPTION:“Life has never been normal\,” wrote C. S. Lewis in an address to students at the outset of World War II. If we are waiting for a better time to pursue truth\, goodness\, and beauty\, we may never get started. In the Young Philosophers series\, Gutenberg College opens its (virtual) doors to high-school-age participants for thoughtful online discussion of important ideas. \nWhat makes you think that we speak the same language? In this academic year’s final session of Young Philosophers\, we turn our attention to the one thing that every philosophical discussion begins with: language itself. Is it just a bunch of arbitrary signs made up by people no wiser than we are? What\, if anything\, do abstractions like humanity refer to? Can two people ever really be sure that they are talking about the same thing? Join us as we consider questions like these alongside Scottish philosopher Thomas Reid with his “philosophy of common sense.” \nAttendee Requirements: High-school age\nMaximum Attendees: 12\nMore about Young Philosophers\n\n  \nRegister Here for Zoom Attendance  \nLeading this session of Young Philosophers will be Chris Alderman.

SUMMARY:Solutions and Illusions
DESCRIPTION:On May 4\, Chris Swanson will give the twelfth talk in the series “It’s Complicated: The Histories Behind What We Think We Know.” \nWhen a populous and complex society has problems\, they are always big ones that need big solutions. But who is going to provide these big solutions? Private enterprise? (Should we trust in Adam Smith’s “invisible hand” to guide our resources to address issues in the most efficient way?) Government? (Do we need its authority and power to tackle the problems since private enterprise is too profit-focused?) Independent\, non-profit organizations? (Do we need a humanitarian focus?) The situation is indeed complicated! This class will examine the value and inherent limitations of each option. And while recognizing that our desires and hopes for solutions are good\, Chris will make the case that the hope for a solution is ultimately an illusion but that hope in God will not be disappointed. \nChris Swanson is the president of Gutenberg College where he has been a tutor since the college opened its doors in 1994. He has a B.S. in physics and math from Westmont College (1986) and both an M.S. (1987) and Ph.D. (1992) in physics from the University of Oregon. He has also done post-doctoral research at the University of Oregon and taught at Westmont College in California. \nThis class may be attended in person at Gutenberg College or online via Zoom.

SUMMARY:Summer Institute 2021:The Meaning of the City:Rebellion and RedemptionJuly 29-31
DESCRIPTION:They said\, “Come\, let us build for ourselves a city\, and a tower whose top will reach into heaven\, and let us make for ourselves a name.” (Genesis 11:4)\nFor many of us\, the city is the water we swim in: having grown up and lived our lives in an urban environment\, we take it for granted. This summer\, we will explore the nature of the city from both spiritual and material perspectives. How does urbanity affect our core assumptions about life and God? Does it help or impede our walk of faith? And most importantly\, how can we live a life of obedience in an urban context? To aid us on our journey\, we will be reading excerpts from biblical authors\, Augustine\, Lewis Mumford\, and Jacques Ellul\, all of whom offer penetrating insights into the matter\, including the surprising claim that cities have a spiritual aspect we should not ignore. Come join us at Summer Institute 2021 to study The Meaning of the City. \nGo here for more details.

SUMMARY:Economic Control and Totalitarianism: A Conversation with Hayek
DESCRIPTION:On May 12\, Chris Swanson will give the ninth talk in the series “The Gutenberg Dialogues: An In-depth Look at Tyranny.” \nDuring the 1930s\, economist Friedrich Hayek recognized an increasing desire among Britons for centralized control of the economy. The undeniable economic growth of Germany and the Soviet Union seemed to prove that the most efficient route to national wealth and power was to centrally coordinate economic activity toward desired ends. Hayek\, however\, was alarmed. In his seminal work\, The Road To Serfdom\, he argued that the only path to such centralization was by trampling over hard won and highly cherished freedoms. \nIn this talk\, Chris Swanson will lay out Hayek’s arguments and provide us a forum to reflect on his concerns and whether they still apply today. \nChris Swanson is the president of Gutenberg College where he has been a tutor since the college opened its doors in 1994. He has a B.S. in physics and math and both an M.S. and Ph.D. in physics. He has also done post-doctoral research at the University of Oregon and taught at Westmont College in California. \n  \nRegistration is required to attend this class. \nRegister Here for Remote Attendance  \nMore Information & Cost

SUMMARY:How Totalitarianism Unites: Hannah Arendt and the Politics of the Twentieth Century
DESCRIPTION:On April 28\, Walter Steeb will give the eighth talk in the series “The Gutenberg Dialogues: An In-depth Look at Tyranny.” \nDoes it matter how we understand totalitarianism? Hannah Arendt describes it in a memorable way as “the belief that everything is permitted and\, much more terrible\, that everything is possible.” Her analysis shows it to be an extreme form of human government\, one that transforms tyranny into something potentially inhuman. Though this sentiment is nothing new\, she questions whether the long dream for global unity might necessitate such an inauthentic way of life. In this session\, we will discuss Arendt’s philosophy\, focusing on her unique approach to political theory. We will address a few distinctions among classical forms of government as expressions of human authenticity and the difficulties that arise  when we consider the tensions present in being a citizen and an individual. \nWalter Steeb graduated from Gutenberg College in 2009. He has an M.A. in philosophy of theology from Northwest Christian University where his thesis was on French philosopher Paul Ricoeur. He and his wife\, Elizabeth\, spend time backpacking\, traveling\, and playing soccer. \n  \nRegistration is required to attend this class. \nRegister Here for Remote Attendance  \nMore Information & Cost

SUMMARY:Tyranny of the Majority and Other Dangers: deTocqueville and Mill
DESCRIPTION:On April 14\, Naomi Rinehold will give the seventh talk in the series “The Gutenberg Dialogues: An In-depth Look at Tyranny.” \nHalf a century after the publication of the Federalist Papers and the subsequent ratification of the U.S. Constitution\, Alexis de Tocqueville\, a young French aristocrat\, took an academic tour of the new country. In the resulting treatise\, Democracy in America\, he echoes the founders’ concerns about a potential tyranny of the majority. He considers whether such tyranny could be the inevitable outcome in the United States. Twenty years later\, British philosopher John Stuart Mill argued that this preoccupation with tyranny of the majority was distracting people from the real danger—an insidious social tyranny which required no laws or governments to operate. How well did these two predict America’s path? One hundred and sixty years after Mill\, do we face either kind of tyranny\, or perhaps a curious combination of the two? \nNaomi Rinehold is Gutenberg’s student services administrator. She earned a B.A. in History at Campbellsville University in Kentucky and then spent eight years teaching in Argentina—first ESL students at a rural school and then teenagers at Buenos Aires International Christian Academy. After returning stateside\, she earned a B.A. in philosophy at the University of Oregon while living at Gutenberg\, and she then moved to Knoxville where she earned an M.A. and\, in 2019\, a Ph.D. in philosophy at the University of Tennessee. \n  \nRegistration is required to attend this class. \nRegister Here for Remote Attendance  \nMore Information & Cost

SUMMARY:The Ecumenical State: Re-reading Rousseau
DESCRIPTION:On March 10\, Gil Greco will give the fifth talk in the series “The Gutenberg Dialogues: An In-depth Look at Tyranny.” \nJean-Jacques Rousseau is often portrayed as the darling of the French Revolution. Many of Rousseau’s ideas have had problematic implications for our day. Nevertheless\, Gil Greco thinks that the standard interpretation of The Social Contract misrepresents Rousseau’s intentions. Join Gil to discuss Rousseau’s views of identity\, the “general will\,” and the “civil religion\,” perhaps with some helpful insights into our current political situation. \nGil Greco graduated from Gutenberg in 2012 after writing his senior thesis on C. S. Lewis and Joseph Campbell. He taught high school literature in Missouri for four years and now serves as house manager for Gutenberg College’s Residence Program with his wife\, Erin\, with whom he parents their three sons. \n  \nRegistration is required to attend this class. \nRegister Here for Remote Attendance  \nMore Information & Cost

SUMMARY:Tyranny in the Mind of the Founding Fathers of America
DESCRIPTION:On February 24\, Charley Dewberry will give the fourth talk in the series “The Gutenberg Dialogues: An In-depth Look at Tyranny.” \nDuring the revolutionary period of the 1770s\, the focus of the Founding Fathers was on the “tyranny of the monarch.” By the 1780s\, they were still concerned with tyranny but now the focus was on “the tyranny of the majority.” We will examine the concerns found in Federalist Paper #10 and see how the Founding Fathers addressed those concerns through the structure of the proposed U.S. Constitution. \nCharley Dewberry is a tutor and the dean at Gutenberg College\, a practicing scientist and stream ecologist\, and the author of Saving Science: A Critique of Science and Its Role in Salmon Recovery (2004) and Intelligent Discourse: Exposing the Fallacious Standoff Between Evolution and Intelligent Design (2006). He has a M.A. in fisheries and wildlife and a Ph.D. in philosophy with an emphasis on philosophy of science. \n  \nRegistration is required to attend this class. \nRegister Here for Remote Attendance  \nMore Information & Cost
