Educational Issues Forum
Annual Religion and Society Lecture

Speaker Stephen Prothero, of Boston University, is described by Newsweek as "a world religions scholar with the soul of a late night television comic."  His topic is Religious Literacy: What every American needs to know . . . and doesn’t.  Prothero argues religion must become the “fourth R” of American education; we must teach students in public schools about the world’s religions — including the Bible— if we are going to equip them to understand American politics and world affairs.  February 26, 2008 at 7:00 p.m.

in Hostetter Chapel.  Tickets are not required.  For
