Semester’s final Peace and Justice Symposium is Thursday

The last Peace and Justice Symposium of the semester is this Thursday, Dec. 1, from 7:15 to 9 p.m. in the Quaker Heritage Room on the second floor of the MLRC. It will feature Bill Apel (professor emeritus, Linfield College) and Craig Goodworth (George Fox adjunct writing instructor and artist practitioner in residence).

This is a great time to hear two professors talk on a more personal level – outside the classroom – about how peace and justice have been currents forming the trajectories of their personal as well as academic lives.

About our speakers:

Apel is a professor emeritus at Linfield College, having spent many years on the school’s religious studies faculty as well as the college chaplain. His presentation on Thursday night is titled after his most recent book, Signs of Peace: A life of Blessings. For more information on Bill, go to this link.

Goodworth is George Fox’s artist practitioner in residence for the semester. His most recent art exhibition was in the Minthorne Gallery in September and was titled “Jelen and Other Drawings.” He is also an adjunct writing instructor. For more information on Craig, including his “peace testimony,” please visit this link.

We hope to see you there. We’ll have snacks at 7:15 p.m. and the program begins at 7:30 p.m.
