Dr. Strong is an inspiration to us all.Thanks for posting this.
I appreciate each of these comments. The Humanities Institute helps cultivate broad and deep knowledge through offering and collaborating in a variety of public programs. Up in 2011-13: a sustained consideration of the relationship between Public & Private--in education, health, communications, law, commerce, architecture, land use, the arts, and daily life. Keep tuned to our web site and Facebook page!
