Dear Professor Schneider,
I am writing to tell you about an opportunity that may interest some of your students.
On August 10-15 the Institute for Liberal Studies will be hosting our second annual Freedom Week seminar in Montreal. This five-day seminar is designed for students who are interested in learning about classical liberal ideas and the foundation of a free society and is open to undergraduate and graduate students, as well as those who have recently graduated. A faculty of six professors with backgrounds in economics, political science, philosophy, and law will deliver lectures and lead discussion groups designed to give students a chance to talk over important ideas with their peers.
This seminar is totally free, and room and board will be provided. Participants will be selected through a competitive application process and all applications must be submitted by April 15. All students who apply by March 15 will receive a free book.
Faculty for this the seminar:
· Jacob Levy (Political Science, McGill University)
· Michael Munger (Economics and Political Science, Duke University)
· Peter Jaworski (Philosophy, Georgetown University)
· Moin Yahya (Law, University of Alberta)
· Diana Thomas (Economics, Creighton University)
· Steven Horwitz (Economics, St. Lawrence University)
I hope that you will pass along this invitation to students you think may be interested in this opportunity. Applications can be submitted online at www.liberalstudies.ca/freedom-week.
This promises to be an informative and thought-provoking week and we hope to see some of your students there!
Should you have any questions please don’t hesitate to contact me.
