Dr. Eric Fort, Chemistry Department, along with students and other faculty, will lead the eighth Telos Project open discussion today, Thursday, Dec. 1. Sponsored by the O’Shaughnessy-Frey Library Center, the semesterlong discussion series seeks to bring a renewed focus to St. Thomas’ commitment to the pursuit of truth through the integration of knowledge across disciplines.
Meetings take place from noon to 1 p.m., in the O’Shaughnessy (“leather”) Room (108), O’Shaughnessy-Frey Library Center. Each week a professor from a different department will give a brief presentation on:
- What his or her discipline is.
- What attracts him or her to it.
- Why the larger UST community should care.
The meetings will begin with an introduction to the professor’s discipline and area of expertise from noon to 1:15 p.m., followed by a discussion and conversation among students and faculty. All students are invited to participate in the dialogues at noon every Thursday. Cookies and juice will be provided.
