The Humanities department puts on the annual Humanities and Public Life Conference, this past year speakers examined the theme of world views, the conceptual frameworks that helps us understand, from a variety of historical and ideological viewpoints, how the world is structured, functions and develops. The conference dealt with concepts such as an understanding of another’s world view, the ability to see the world while “walking in another’s shoes” brings to light concrete practical approaches to current issues and problems. Part of the conference included the exciting theatrical production of The Life of Socrates and walk a mile in the shoes of a brilliant ancient philosopher, to whom we owe much of our contemporary world view. The keynote speaker, Dr. Kenneth Feder will give a talk contrasting the scientific and pseudo-scientific world views in the study of our past. Specifically, Dr. Feder, looked at the so-called “Sacrificial Table,” of the Mystery Hill site in New Hampshire.
