This spring, UW-Green Bay’s Philosophy Program is hosting the Philosophers' Café at the Mauthe Center, focusing on the First Amendment and the limits of tolerance. Each evening will consist of a moderated discussion featuring a faculty member with expertise on the topic, open to both UW-Green Bay students and community members. The goal is to bring together people with diverse opinions in respectful dialogue, exploring questions of tolerance and civil liberties. This program is supported by a grant from the Wisconsin Institute for Citizenship and Civil Dialogue (WICCD), and it is hosted by UWGB Philosophy professor Robert Riordan.The topic for this evening's discussion is "Freedom of Religion." It will be led by Dr. Robert Pyne, Program Director at the Mauthe Center. Dr. Pyne was for many years a professor of theology before joining a Nairobi-based NGO, where he led the development and delivery of curriculum for peacebuilding in eight countries of sub-Saharan Africa. He then spent almost fifteen years at St. Norbert College, teaching courses on peace and conflict and human rights while serving as Senior Director of Community Engagement and Director of the Norman Miller Center for Peace, Justice & Public Understanding.
