Freedom and Virtue Seminars
Liberty Fund conferences are famous for their original style - 16 scholars from various disciplines gathered together to participate in a civil, generalist conversation on original texts, led by one scholar who simply presents questions. This Socratic, interdisciplinary style has caught on for students as well.
The Liberty & Ethics Center is developing a network of primarily Midwestern professors who are ready and willing to expand the program to their own schools.
Funding is provided for seminar organizers and attendees, so join the fun!
