Join us to explore the provocative connections among eating, ethics

Interdisciplinary panel session that will span topics ranging from 
"Corporate Imperialism: Eclipsing the Family Farm" to "Eating the 
Future? Educational Implications" and "The Morality and Reform of 
Food: Religious and Philosophical Issues";

Andrews, Dana & Laura Jackson, and Sandy Oliver;
