Join us for free food and discussion
The “Table of Plenty” is a monthly opportunity for open lunchtime discussion on a complex social justice topic. We hope to have people join us with a broad spectrum of opinions to join us for respectful conversation where all sides are heard. They are held on the third Tuesday of each month from 12:00-1:15pm in Liberty Hall RM 08. Lunch made and provided by CSC staff! Please RSVP below, so that we know how much food to prepare.
Dates and topics for discussion
In previous years, we had chosen the topics prior to the beginning of the academic year for the entire year. This year, we are going to choose them about two weeks prior to each lunch, so that the topics are more focused on social justice issues that are in the news. So, check back within two weeks of each date for the topic.
