Get your fill of philosophy over coffee at the Socrates Café
Finding opportunities for unhurried, face-to-face discussion of life’s big questions can be challenging in today’s hyper-noisy, technology-driven world. Drawing on the Socratic tradition of lively, open-ended inquiry, Washington College’s Academy of Lifelong Learning’s Socrates Café is a forum for exploring questions that don’t have easy right-or-wrong answers. There are no assigned readings, and each session’s topic is selected by those in attendance. The only prerequisite for participation is a willingness to listen respectfully as others share their thoughts and experiences. There are two chances to join — May 21 and June 11. Both events start at 10 a.m. Register to attend here https://www.washcoll.edu/people_departments/offices/wc-all/2024/socrates-cafe/index.php
