This week’s discussion will center on the conceptualization of offensiveness, including what we find offensive, why we find it offensive, and the moral or social norms behind these perceptions. Participants will explore definitions of offensiveness and examine their limitations, to ultimately develop our own understanding of offense and to navigate the delicate balance between personal expression, social norms, and respect for others. 6-8 p.m. Sun., Sept. 15 • McKelvy House (200 High St.) • MORE
