Description

Please join us on Thursday, January 24 for Teachers Talking. MAYDAY! 2019 will feature internationally renowned author, reporter, Minnesota native, and columnist Thomas Friedman. The MAYDAY! peace conference will focus on journalism and peace, helping us to examine our news consumption, fake news, and the importance of a free press in our informational society. Friedman has authored six bestselling books which range broadly from Middle Eastern politics, globalization and finance, technology, environmentalism, and conflict and diplomacy.

Come to hear and share about ways to connect your courses to the work of Thomas Friedman and the MAYDAY! conference theme. The program will take place from 11:30 a.m. and 12:30 p.m. There will be free lunch at the Three Crowns buffet, then we will meet in the Heritage Room.
