Description
CANCELED: This event has been canceled in accordance with GVSU's policy to protect against COVID-19.
Fifty years ago the idea of same-sex marriage seemed absurd to most people. Today, it is sanctioned by law in the U.S., and performed in religious traditions and other countries around the world. What rights will be recognized in ten years that we only dream of today? Animal rights or rights for robots?
LIB 100/201 APPROVED!
