Do you wonder about the effectiveness of different macronutrient diets on the body and particularly for weight loss? Despite the many options we have, we still don’t have clear guidance about them (low carb vs low fat vs Mediterranean) and not one diet has been found to be better than others for weight loss.
Please join us for an engaging conversation with Dr. Janice Hwang, Endocrinologist and Assistant Professor in the Division of Endocrinology at the Yale School of Medicine, to learn about the impact of macronutrients on the brain as well as her research.

This event is presented by the Parrhesia Program for Public Discourse and the Chicago Center on Democracy at the University of Chicago. Over the past few years, there has been much debate about the tensions between protecting free speech and creating an inclusive environment on university campuses. There are many interesting and unresolved questions in this area, such as:
What is the role of “civility” in conversations on campus? Are calls for civility a weapon used by those who wish to silence certain voices, or is civility a necessary condition for productive discussion?

Please join student-curator Kathryn Schechel ’21 for an introduction to her senior essay exhibit, “Free the New Haven Panthers”: The New Haven Nine, Yale, and the May Day 1970 Protests That Brought Them Together.
The Black Panther movement played a pivotal role in New Haven during the 1970 May Day Rally. This student-curated exhibit explores the roles of the Black Panthers and Yale in creating a successful protest movement, representing the varying positions and perspectives that Yale affiliates and Black Panther organizers brought to the table in their disparate but related fights for justice and fairness.
