Jepson student Mariana Panariello, ’27, sits down with Jepson Leadership Forum speaker Eric Klinenberg, author and Helen Gould Shepard Professor of Social Science and director of the Institute for Public Knowledge at New York University, prior to his Jepson Leadership Forum presentation "How 2020 Shaped 2024."
The 2024-25 Jepson Leadership Forum invites scholars and experts to discuss how division and polarization affect American democracy. We will explore how and why divisions have manifested historically and currently in the United States, focusing on their impact on justice, education, politics, culture, technology, and class. Are division and the struggle to find common ground making us stronger or tearing us apart?
Take 5 is a series of informal interviews with the scholars and experts who present as part of the lecture series. Nov. 19, 2024
