3401 Dwinelle Hall

Winnifred Sullivan, Professor of Religious Studies and Law, Indiana University

All talk of special accommodations for religiously motivated persons, or separation of religion from government, presumes a capacity to give an account of what religion is.

310 Sutardja Dai Hall

Nile Green, Professor of History, University of California, Los Angeles
