The Poverty of Critical Hope in Higher Education: A Call to Leadership and Action Against Relativism

• In Event: Courageous Transformations in Higher Education Leadership

Short Description

Under the guise of pluralism, some spaces in higher education have devolved into a relativism that ironically squelches social and intellectual diversity. Fortunately, critical hope may provide a means of articulating the limits of relativism, honor the existential dread that relativism has generated in modern discourse, and provide new directions for an ethical commitment to pluralism for higher education leaders.
