Docking Lecture to focus on courage
As part of our Pillars Project, the college is focusing each year on one of the virtues celebrated when we sing the alma mater and think of the Christy pillars of Knowledge, Hope, Courage, and Freedom. Our 2014-15 focus on courage inspired the choice of Sebastian Junger to give this year’s Docking Lecture.
Junger is the author of The Perfect Storm, a notable book that became a popular movie starring George Clooney. More recently he is the award-winning documentary filmmaker behind Restrepo and Korengal, two movies that focus on the experience of American combat soldiers in Afghanistan.
The Docking Lecture will be presented at 11 a.m. on Thursday, March 5, in the Richardson Performing Arts Center. The Docking Lecture is underwritten by William and Thomas Docking and Union State Bank. It is free and open to the public. Please consider attending.
For those interested in seeing Junger’s film, Restrepo, it will be shown in the Richardson Performing Arts Center at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, February 17th.
