Research Conference On Personhood

[Eleanor]

I'm going to this conference in August in Boston on Personhood. I just got the preliminary program. Here is the Plenary session on day 2 .


“‘We Are Not Disposable’: People with Psycho-social Disorders and Social Justice”

Carol Moeller, Moravian College (Bethlehem, PA, USA)


“Dissociative Identity Disorder, Personhood, and Responsibility”

Michelle Maise, Emmanuel College (Boston, MA, USA)

Needless to say, I shall take notes...:bookworm::D

And there is this...

“The Consolation of Philosophers: Recovering Dignity and the Self After Sexual Assault ”

Mackenzie LeFoster, Belmont University (Nashville, TN, USA)

I don't know what it means that academic attention is being paid.. but I hope it is good.

:tup:OOOOhhhhh take really great notes or get a link for a transcript??? Sounds like a potentially informative experience. Lucky thing you gal. I'd love to attend something like that.

 

[Eleanor]

I'd love to sit next to you in the back row, (I always sit in the back row) Alby, and whisper comments with you!

 

[The Albatross]

Awwww... now that would be great wouldn't it? The Q and A component (if they have one) sure would be interesting... provided we got picked.

 

[The Albatross]

Too bad we can't get a group rate to attend and some grant money... just a random thought.

@Eleanor that sounds awesome.

I'm seconding the request for notes, transcripts, heck even key names & terms & conclusions & references in other sources as mentioned.

If you could be so kind, and have the time and energy for that sort of thing, of course. :) Just sharing the excitement.

In every case, have awesome time going. :D

 

[Eleanor]

Will do. Honestly, @Cashew these guys are going to have to work pretty hard to have any 'street cred' with me on these topics. You never know, of course, they could be "ones" of us, tho!
