If you’re in the vicinity of the University of Rochester this coming Tuesday (October 4) at 5PM, you are invited to come by Goergen Hall Room 101 to hear Jamie Whyte‘s public lecture on the topic “Regulating Rudeness: The Social Cost of Offensive Speech”.
Jamie’s talks in the past have been generally dazzling. I expect no less of this one.
Will non-attendees be able to read or see this lecture?
AMTBuff: I’m not sure, but if there is, I will announce it here.
If there was any justice in this world, Jamie would have been my country’s (NZ) prime minister several years ago. Alas, democratic systems select for demagogues – not brilliant philosophers like him.
