UCET will sponsor workshops in
cooperation with the One Book One Campus Selection for 2008-2009 and the Campus Theme: "Revolutions in Thought".
The 2008-2009 Campus Theme of "Revolutions in Thought" will celebrate
and explore intellectual innovations spanning all disciplines. Our
world is changed, for better or worse, when conventional wisdom and
established patterns of behavior are challenged. This academic year
will be full of important intellectual milestones such as the
150th anniversary of Charles Darwin's revolutionary "The Origin of
Species." Furthermore, many aspects of our world are currently
undergoing revolutions, and many members of our community are active
participants in furthering those changes. The campus theme is an
occasion for the IU South Bend community to assess the revolutions of
the past, to embrace the new ideas of today, to celebrate the defeat
of old ones, and to learn how we can all cause the world to change.
