2021-09 newsletter
Hello Conversationalists!
August has been quite a month filled with many interesting happenings in the world. The U.S. somewhat chaotically pulled out of Afghanistan, the DELTA variant of the Covid-19 virus has surged to a dangerous level, we saw the end of the Olympics, and we finally have the release of Kanye West’s new album Donda. As eventful as the world has been, we unfortunately did not have any events this past month due to rescheduling and weather affecting our in person events. Though we have no events to share, we did want to share some information with you for the fall!
Bring FreeIC to Your Campus
FreeIC has successfully partnered with several colleges and universities to plan events. These have included on campus events such as those put on for Professor Mark Moreno’s NOMAS architecture club, with our cross campus virtual connects between classrooms like Mark Urista’s Communications class at Linn-Benton Community College and Professor Lindsay Hoffman’s Communication course at the University of Delaware, and other initiatives such as our Q&A session with Jonathan Haidt that was hosted for Heterodox academy and BridgeUSA.

FreeIC in Dolores Park on September 12th!

We will be out with signs and question cards from 1pm to 4 pm so come join us!
