Difficult Dialogues Symposium
Emerson Suites
The Peggy Ryan Williams Difficult Dialogues Symposium explores complex and controversial subjects to engage audiences in civil and respectful dialogue by bringing to campus a speaker or speakers who will present important topics that are challenging and thought-provoking. The symposium is named in honor of IC President Emerita Peggy Ryan Williams, who has been an advocate for open discourse and a staunch defender of academic freedom and active, open inquiry.
