The Arizona Board of Regents’ Presidential Project, in partnership with the Museum of Democracy and the Freedom Center brought the exhibit “You say you want a revolution?: Politics and Protests in the 60’s” for the 2024 – 2025 academic year to campus. This special traveling exhibit showcases real presidential memorabilia from the nation’s largest private collector, the Wright Family. The launch event focused on finding common ground in divisive times and featured Drs. Robert George and Cornel West. The activities included a special meeting with President Suresh Garimella and remarks from Interim Provost Ronald Marx and Representative Matt Gress.
As we close another academic year at the Center for the Philosophy of Freedom, I’m proud to celebrate the momentum we’ve sustained throughout the spring. The Center’s core faculty has been growing in size —be on the lookout for our very first “Research Digest” in June featuring the important research being conducted by our faculty. This newsletter will provide an update on our non-research outreach.
This year brought many milestones—from welcoming our first ever international European Master in Law and Economics students to Arizona, to educating the next generation of Philosophy, Politics, Economics and Law students at the Undergraduate Summer School, to empowering young women through Invest in Girls, to welcoming the Museum of Democracy to campus in partnership with the Arizona Board of Regents’ Presidential Project. Each endeavor reflects our ongoing commitment to dialogue, discovery, and the enduring pursuit of freedom.
