Understanding the Amish: Persistence and Change

You are cordially invited to the next Emeritus Academy lecture, featuring

Joseph Donnermeyer
Professor Emeritus
School of Environment and Natural Resources

presenting his lecture:
“Understanding the Amish: Persistence and Change”

Learning about the Amish by watching a TV reality show about them is akin to claiming one is a Veterinarian (or alternatively, an entomologist) after viewing a full-length cartoon version of Charlotte’s Web. This lecture will guide the audience on a journey from the outer to the inner characteristics of the real Amish, who today represent one of the fastest growing religious groups in US society.
