The Killeen Chair of Theology and Philosophy Lecture Series will feature "Religious Diversity--A Challenge to Political Philosophy and Democratic Politics" presented by Dr. Robert Audi, John A. O'Brien professor of philosophy at the University of Notre Dame, on Thursday, Nov. 10, at 7 p.m. in the Fort Howard Theater, located in the Bemis International Center on the St. Norbert College campus. The event is free and open to the public.

Prior to his appointment at the University of Notre Dame, Audi was a professor at the University of Texas at Austin and the University of Nebraska, Lincoln, having received his B.A. from Colgate University and his M.A. and Ph.D. from the University of Michigan. Audi has authored 15 books, and served on the David E. Gallo Chair in Ethics at the University of Notre Dame.

The Killeen Chair of Theology and Philosophy was established in 1984 to bring figures in the fields of theology and philosophy to the St. Norbert College campus. The Killeen Chair draws attention to the importance of theology and philosophy in a Catholic liberal arts education and highlights the commitment of St. Norbert College to provide an education that is personally, intellectually and spiritually challenging. The Killeen Chair is an appropriate way of honoring Abbot Killeen's many contributions to St. Norbert College, the Norbertine Order and the wider community.
