“Communicating with Love”

May 29th at 7pm | Emerson Auditorium (WashU Campus)

The Carver Project invites you to a panel discussion titled “Communicating with Love,” on Thursday May 29th, 2025, featuring members of the third Newbigin Fellows cohort. This interdisciplinary panel of scholars will reflect on the practice of communicating across difference in today’s cultural and institutional landscape. Together, they will explore what it means to communicate with conviction, humility, and love—navigating the tensions and opportunities that arise in both public and personal spheres. Panelists include Jonathan Bowman (Professor of Communication and Director of the Honors Program at the University of San Diego), Kyla Ebels-Duggan (Professor of Philosophy at Northwestern University), and Sara Vander Haagen (Associate Professor of Communication at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee), moderated by Abram Van Engen.

The Newbigin Fellows is an 18-month cohort-based experience focused on exploring Christian identity and interfaith cooperation on non-faith-based university campuses. It is a joint effort between The Carver Project and Interfaith America.
