What does it look like when two of America\u2019s most brilliant and outspoken minds \u2014 one a conservative lion of natural law theory, the other a prophetic voice of the Black radical tradition \u2014 sit down not as opponents, but as brothers in Christ?<\/p>\n

On\u00a0Thursday, April 16<\/strong>, at\u00a07 p.m.<\/strong>, the university invites you to \u201cCivic Friendship in a Polarized Age,\u201d a rare and remarkable dialogue between Princeton\u2019s Robert George and Union Seminary\u2019s Cornel West.<\/p>\n

Students have the option of receiving elective chapel credit for attending. The event, originally scheduled for Canyon Commons, has been moved to Bauman Auditorium<\/strong>. There is no fee, but we request you please reserve your spot using this form<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Rooted not in the tired theater of political debate but in a shared Christian faith that calls all people to love their neighbors across every divide, this conversation will explore what genuine civic friendship demands of us in this fractured moment. Come expecting not a clash, but a covenant \u2014 a living demonstration that the gospel has always been, at its heart, a politics of reconciliation.<\/p>\n
