Take part in 2 events to discuss faculty member's new book
Sara Matthews of Wilfred Laurier University and Karen Sandlos of the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and the Chicago Institute for Psychoanalysis will discuss the theoretical and pedagogical implications of faculty member H.

Matthews will present a seminar from 1-2:30 p.m. on Friday, April 21 in Aderhold Room 317 that engages Garrett’s ideas using photography as a method for dealing with the “stirred emotions” of difficult knowledge and its implications for education. Sandlos will present a response to the book centered on re-imagining the work of social studies in the 21st century at 3 p.m. Saturday, April 22, at Southern Brewing Company.
