Manny and all,

Thanks to Manny, who knows everything, for beating us to this announcement. 
June and I and John Hooper will be there as members of the Board of

Subject: [Hac-announce] Susan Jacoby at Yale Humanists event next Tuesday.


This event is free and open to the public. Some of you will recall that we 
read Susan Jacoby's book " Freethinkers: A History of Secularism " in 2005, 
shortly after the book group started. --Manny

On Tuesday, September 10th at 7:00 PM, the Yale Humanist Community will host 
Pulitzer Prize-nominated author Susan Jacoby (Freethinkers, The Great 
Agnostic) for a lecture on how secular ethics bear on public policy and 
everyday life from growing income inequality in our society to women's 
rights.

Jacoby will lecture in K207 in Kirtland Hall, the Psychology Department, at 
2 Hillhouse Avenue in New Haven, CT.

Following her talk, Jacoby will take questions and sign copies of her books, 
some of which will be available for purchase from the Yale Bookstore. There 
will also be a small reception to follow, with food and drink available for 
guests.

This event will be the first for the recently established Yale Humanist 
Community (YHC), an organization dedicated to developing, supporting, and 
growing a diverse community of Humanists, atheists, agnostics, and the 
nonreligious at Yale and beyond. Information about future YHC events and 
affiliated Yale student clubs will be available to attendees, as will 
members of our Board of Directors and our staff members Chris Stedman 
(Coordinator of Humanist Life) and Paul Chiariello (Director of Operations). 
This event is free and open to the public, and all are welcome. We hope to 
see you there!
