This Wednesday: Register to Attend the President's Speaker Series Featuring Jonathan Haidt

Jonathan Haidt, professor of ethical leadership at the New York University Stern School of Business and author of New York Times best-seller The Righteous Mind: Why Good People Are Divided by Politics and Religion, will lead the next installment of the President’s Speaker Series on Wednesday, September 21, at 5:30 PM in Smothers Theatre. One of the world’s leading experts on the psychology of morality, Haidt will explore the topic of free speech and the academy.

The President's Speaker Series, which launched in January 2021, has welcomed distinguished scholars and thought leaders—including the Kinsey family, legal scholar Robert George, esteemed philosophy academic Cornel West, and Moderna CEO Stéphane Bancel—representing diverse perspectives to examine issues facing our communities and the world today. Driven by a desire to connect deeply with the Pepperdine community and inspire meaningful dialogue in the pursuit of truth, the series provides opportunities to cultivate an engaged and impassioned collective through civil discourse.

Tickets are free, but registration is required.
