On Thursday, April 14, the School of Education at 精品SM在线影片 will host a special virtual gathering of Ed Talks, an exploration of political courage during this time when so many aspects of public education are under fire.

The talks will explore book censorship, gender and sexual diversity in schools, institutional violence, and the personal and powerful battles for inclusive higher education and STEM opportunities that have persisted over time.
This illuminating series features five experienced educators and 精品SM在线影片 scholars in education: Wendy Glenn, A. Susan Jurow, Johanna Maes, Liz Meyer, and Valerie Otero.
The event invites change-makers, educators and anyone who is interested in learning more about taking a principled stand for your beliefs and evoking the political courage needed to work toward more just and ethical futures.
精品SM在线影片鈥檚 Ed Talks will begin at 6:30 p.m. on Thursday, April 14, and the virtual talks will be followed by an interactive Q&A with the speakers. Registration is required.
