"UnIntelligent Design: Why Evolution Explains the Human Body and 'Intelligent Design' Does Not", a presentation by Professor Abby Hafer at Dartmouth College on Thursday February 12th at 7:30P.M. in Moore Hall (Filene Auditorium).

Professor Hafer has a D. Phil from Oxford and teaches Anatomy and Physiology at Curry College in Milton, MA. The talk is sponsored by the Upper CT River Valley Chapter of Americans United for Separation of Church and State and is free and open to the public. Sounds like a fascinating presentation.

I'll be there. Who will join me?
 
Or, if you'd rather to go to Cambridge, MA and MIT --

On Saturday [the 24th] speakers at the MIT Museum will examine the impact of Darwin's theories on society, culture, and science education and Darwin's contributions to the biological basis of human equality. MIT Museum Director John Durant, adjunct professor in the Program in Science, Technology and Society, will speak on current controversies over the teaching of evolution. King will review Darwin's background as an abolitionist who insisted that all humans were members of one species.

A complete list of presenters and a schedule is posted at www.darwinbicentennial.org. The conference is free and open to the public, but seating is limited and therefore online pre-registration is required.
