Is there a value in including *Introduction to World Religions* within an
Undergraduate Curriculum? How is such a course relevant? How could it
contribute to a student's education?

Those are some of the questions Dr. Howard Gontovnick, Adjunct
Lecturer in Interdisciplinary
& Area Studies, will explore in a talk and conversation in *Feinberg
Library's Reading Room today* -- March 30th from *1-2 p.m. *

Join us as Dr. Howard Gontovnick reviews evidence supporting the academic
and social value that a course in World Religions can have for an
individual.

*About the Speaker*
