Faculty Authors Roundtable Discussions
In celebration of our School of Theology Faculty authors, the STH Library is pleased to sponsor some upcoming roundtable discussions focused on recent faculty writings. These discussion roundtables are intended to provide an opportunity for participants to be introduced to and engage with the written work of the author. A selected essay or chapter from a faculty publication will provide the focus for the discussion.
The roundtable discussions will take place in the STH Library Conference Room. Selections for reading will be available on reserve at the Library circulation desk, and as digital copies upon request. Please contact our Digital Projects librarian to request a digital copy, or login using your BU ID at this page to download a PDF. Light refreshments will be provided.
