The Center for the Humanities is hosting a Humanities NOW event on the topic of Public Universities, Legislatures, and Academic Freedom. This event will take place on Wednesday, April 10 at 5:30 PM in the Elvehjem Building, Room L140, 800 University Ave. The panelists will tackle big questions like, what does it mean to be a public university? Or rather, what does it mean to be a public university today? Join for a dynamic, timely conversation on the external pressures facing public institutions such as UW–Madison. Topics will include the recent deal that was struck between State legislators and UW System leadership, DEI, academic freedom, the resignation of leaders at other academic institutions, and what we stand to lose—or gain—in all of this.
