SUMMARY:Rediscovering Western Civilization
DESCRIPTION:Stanley Kurtz\, senior fellow at the Ethics and Public Policy Center\, will join the Martin Center for a luncheon on Wednesday\, June 12\, to discuss why the study of Western Civilization has nearly disappeared from higher education and how academia’s abandonment of the West is directly connected to the resurgence of anti-Semitism and protests on college campuses today. \nMr. Kurtz has led the campaign to reform federal subsidies to academic programs of “area studies\,” such as ethnic studies and gender studies\, under Title VI of the Higher Education Act\, and has co-authored model campus free-speech legislation adopted by several states. He is also a co-author of the General Education Act\, new model legislation designed to restore classic liberal education to public colleges and universities. \nMr. Kurtz’s latest book\, The Lost History of Western Civilization\, offers a deep dive into the replacement of traditional Western Civilization with “intersectionality\,” a new way of examining America’s cultural conflicts\, and what it all means for the future of the American experiment itself.

SUMMARY:Restoring Merit to Medical Education
DESCRIPTION:Nearly all of America’s top medical schools have made Critical Race Theory and “anti-racism” parts of their core curriculum. Will the introduction of this ideology lead to discrimination in healthcare or lower educational standards? What can be done to ensure that medical education remains rigorous and centered on the specific needs of the individual patient? \nDr. Stanley Goldfarb\, board chair of Do No Harm\, will join the Martin Center on Thursday\, June 15 to address the growing influence of anti-racist activism in medical schools and share his recommendations on restoring merit to medical education. \nDr. Goldfarb\, a board-certified kidney specialist\, is a former Professor and Associate Dean for Curriculum at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine. He has been widely published in medical journals\, as well as The Wall Street Journal\, and is co-host of the Do No Harm podcast. \n\n\n \n

SUMMARY:Milton Friedman and Higher Education Luncheon
DESCRIPTION:Please join us as we celebrate Milton Friedman’s 101st birthday with guest speaker George Leef with the Pope Center at a luncheon at the Crowne Plaza in Hickory\, NC. Friedman was one of the greatest thinkers of the 20th century. He dealt often with the deficiencies in our K-12 system\, but wrote relatively little about higher education. Nevertheless\, he made sharp observations about the problems we face in higher education and set forth some radical solutions. George will take what we know about Friedman’s views on higher education and use them to discuss current trends and developments as Friedman would have seen them.
