Please join us on May 14 at 12 noon for a panel discussion on "Humanizing the Professions? How the Humanities Can Transform the Practice of Finance, Medicine, and Law". We will explore how interdisciplinary reflection can help de-silo the professional schools for the common good.  Our panelists include the Directors of Collegium Institute’s Philosophy of Finance, Medical Humanities and Legal Humanities Projects, which draw together students, scholars, and practitioners to explore what it means to align professional practice with the tradition of virtue ethics, integral humanism, and the search for wisdom.  

Philosophy of Finance: Michael T. Kane, Ph.D., a philosopher by training, is founder and president of Kestrel Investments, a lecturer for the University of Pennsylvania Department of Economics, and a Senior Affiliate of the Penn Program for Research on Religion in Urban Civil Society.  

Medical Humanities:  Margaret Hogan, Ph.D., a philosopher specializing in medical ethics, is the founding executive director of the University of Portland’s Garaventa Center for Catholic Intellectual Life and American Culture, a former faculty member in the University of Portland’s Philosophy Department and past president of the Center for Academic Integrity at the Keenan Institute of Duke University. She is also a Senior Affiliate of the Penn Program for Research on Religion and Urban Civil Society.

Legal Humanities:  Benjamin Brady, J.D., Ph.D., a historian and legal scholar, is a fellow at the American Law Institute and formerly a law clerk for Judge Raymond Gruender of the Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals in St. Louis, MO, and an attorney-adviser at the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission in Washington D.C.
