Lectures

Kevin de Laplante and Gary Comstock, ISU philosophy and religious studies, provide insight on "Evolution, sociobiology, and ethics: Empirical and normative claims". Surya Mallapragada, ISU chemical engineering, works one-on-one with Kathie Hodge after lecturing about "How I incorporated ethics into my courses after the Institute".

The participants listen to a presentation. Kevin de Laplante uses the overhead projector to make a point. This isn't a lecture, but what Institute is complete without a snack break now and then?
