Luther Professors Explore COVID-19 - In an effort to keep the Luther Community engaged in active learning, the Center for Ethics and Public Engagement is offering a collection of  faculty talks ,   in which faculty members reflect on the coronavirus from their individual disciplinary perspectives.  A sincere thank you to the initial faculty who have contributed.

Just a reminder to all active student organizations - please complete the "Organization Update" form before the conclusion of spring to ensure you have properly updated your organization's information. Here is the link to the Organization Update form-  https://www.luther.edu/studentlife/activities/organizations/forms/update/ .

The Center for Ethics and Public Engagement invites the Luther community to reflect on the current pandemic - How has this experience changed how you view the "common good"? How have personal or societal values/virtues shifted? What does "active citizenship" mean and require from us at this moment? Send your responses to these questions or other thoughts to  cepe@luther.edu  (under 500 words) to be collected and shared on-line.
