This is an intensive one day seminar on “Equality: Whether and Why It Matters” for undergraduates.  Professor Barry Maguire will be leading the discussion.

There will be four sessions:

What is Equality of Opportunity?
What is Equality of Status?
Does Equality matter for its own sake, or instrumentally?
What is the relationship between Equality and Liberty?  Is distributive justice an illusion?

Breakfast, lunch, and dinner, will be provided.

Funding for this event is provided by the Institute for Humane Studies through a generous grant from the John Templeton Foundation.
