Holocaust Seder (2 points)
Wednesday, March 29, 7:00 pm, Busch House
This event is designed to show the struggles of the Holocaust and the harrowing events that came with it, through the Jewish Passover tradition of Seder. This is done in part through readings by people who lived through the Holocaust, some Holocaust historians, lots of symbolism, and plenty of discussion. “Seder” is the Hebrew word for order and, in case you didn’t know, is the introductory meal to the celebration of Passover, to which there is a very specific order in which food is served and blessings are made. Food for the Seder will be provided by Hillel.

The Center for Ethics and Human Values Presents: “What’s Wrong With Inequality?” (2 points)
Tuesday, April 11, 4:00-5:30 pm
Avoidance of inequality is one of the important social values which have been championed for a long time.  This ethical judgment has become particularly relevant in the contemporary world both (1) because of the growing visibility of persistent inequality, and (2) because of a greater understanding of the need to justify social features that conflict with our values, especially in democratic societies. However, we have to ask: why does inequality appear socially unreasonable to us at all?  Among the many answers to this question, at least three would stand out.  Learn more and RSVP here
