The UI campus community is invited to this lecture and discussion featuring Dr. Leigh Patel, Ida Cordelia Beam Visiting Scholar and Professor of Educational Foundations, Organizations, & Policy at the University of Pittsburgh. Dr. Patel is a transdisciplinary scholar who studies the narratives that create material realities in society. Her research focuses on the ways schooling delivers inequities and how education can be a tool for liberation. As part of her UI visit, Dr. Patel will give a lecture titled, "Learning, Care, and World-Building in Higher Education," followed by a facilitated discussion with a UI education faculty member and Center for Teaching staff member, and dialogue with attendees. 

Attendees are encouraged to come as early as 2 p.m. for a sweet treat, coffee, and conversation.
