The Traditional Values Club will host two speaking and discussion events featuring Dr. Brian Clowes, director of research and education for Human Life International, who will present “Racism and Abortion” and “Media Myths About Homosexuality” at two separate speaking events; afterward, the event will be open for a discussion between Clowes and attendees.
Bonnie Borel-Donohue, president of the Traditional Values Club said the events focus on two of the club’s missions.
“One is the sanctity of all human life, that’s one of our missions is to promote that, and the other is the sanctity of marriage between one man and one woman,” Borel-Donohue said.
Traditional Values Club Advisor and Math Professor Vicki Lair said the event will be half presentation based and half discussion based.
She said the discussion portion of the event will be moderated by former Math department Chair Al Giambrone.
