During this year's Summer Programs, join us each Wednesday for a roundtable conversation featuring members of our world-class summer faculty. The professors and topics are different each week, so there’s always something new to explore. 

This week, Karen Swallow Prior and Tom Schwanda will discuss Puritan wisdom for today. Join us at noon in Room 100, and feel free to bring your lunch—and your questions.
