ABOUT THE SOCRATIC STAGE DIALOGUE SERIES
The New College of Florida Office of Public Policy Events seeks to advance civil discourse and engagement through facilitating events that foster open discussion and debate on relevant public policy issues. Such debates or group forums will provide opportunity for a wide range of viewpoints and perspectives to be presented. These events will be open to the public and will include speakers from within and without the state university community that hold broadly divergent and opposing perspectives.
