The Center is excited to welcome Provost Laurie McCauley to this year's initial Community Event. Over the past century, American universities have led the world in the advancement of knowledge. In today’s contentious and politicized environment, however, is it still possible for public universities to foster the rigorous pursuit of truth? If so, how? This interactive session will explore these questions from a variety of institutional perspectives.
Panelists will include:
Dan Crane, Richard W. Pogue Professor of Law, University of Michigan
Valerie Johnson, Senior Manager of Strategic Partnerships, University of Michigan ADVANCE Program
With introductory remarks by Laurie McCauley, Provost and Executive Vice President for Academic Affairs, University of Michigan
