Early in the week, we are co-sponsoring the Tate-Willson Lectures with the Graduate Program in Religious Studies. Nigel Biggar - Regius Professor of Moral and Pastoral Theology and director of the McDonald Centre for Theology, Ethics, and Public Life at the University of Oxford - will discuss "Behaving in Public: Christian Ethics in a Polyglot Secularity" in TWO LECTURES on Sept. 22 in 106 Prothro Hall. The first is at 11:30 a.m. ("Between Distinctiveness and Consensus") and the second lecture is at 7:00 p.m. ("Behaving in a Polyglot Public"). Both lectures are free and open to the public. For more information, contact the Graduate Program in Religious Studies Office, 214-768-2432.

We are co-sponsoring two events in conjunction with the campus-wide observance of the 200th anniversary of Charles Darwin's birth, along with the Biology Department, the Meadows School (and the Division of Cinema-Television), and the Dedman School of Law. Read all about it over here.
