Professor Green published in the Chronicle of Higher Ed

submitted by starckl@augsburg.edu

Professor Doug Green’s letter to the editor was published this week in the Chronicle of Higher Education. His piece, “Academe is Not Anti-Science,” is a measured and insightful response to Steven Pinker’s “The Intellectual War on Science.” At the end of his letter, Professor Green invokes Augsburg’s commitment to the union of science and humanism:

“But if we need a sense of where we are now, at least in the academy, we would do better — on the Augsburg University campus at least — to walk the skyway from Lindell Library to the new Hagfors Center for Science, Religion, and Business: The CSBR and that bridge signify a unified resistance to the war on science and, more broadly, on the pursuit of knowledge.”
