This initiative brings together community members as well as students, staff, and faculty, for a weekly discussion of topics in the news.

Pennoni Honors College promotes the monthly series a week prior to each event, detailing the noteworthy topics and offering articles in advance that reflect different positions on a given subject. The moderated format is free and open to the public. Although at times the views expressed are at odds, the discussion remained civil.

Past topics have included: Activism, Performative Politics, & Privacy; The Limits of Opinion; COVID-19's Impact on America's Educational System; The Limits of Civil Discourse; Community and COVID-19; The Democratic Primaries; The U.S.-Iran Crisis.
