Cate Denial on “A Pedagogy of Kindness

Join CSIL for a discussion with Cate Denial (Knox College) on her new book, A Pedagogy of Kindness. “Part manifesto, part teaching memoir, part how-to guide, A Pedagogy of Kindness urges higher education to get aggressive about instituting kindness, which Denial distinguishes from niceness. Having suffered beneath the weight of just “getting along,” instructors need to shift every part of what they do to prioritize care and compassion for students as well as for themselves.”

A copy of the introduction to Professor Denial’s book is available by request to Daniel Platt (dplat2@uis.edu).
