A presentation on how certainty leads to fundamentalism, and why the middle may be the most powerful position of all.

This isn't about "both sides are the same" or abandoning what you believe. It's about recognizing the pattern that emerges wherever humans engage with big questions—politics, religion, ethics, identity—and learning to hold deep convictions with open hands instead of clenched fists.

The question isn't whether you have strong beliefs. The question is: what would it take for you to change your mind?

If the answer is "nothing," you've found your certainty. And that's where the work begins—not with them, but with you.

The specific location for this event is: Teachers’ Dyer Complex Room 407
