Saint John Henry Newman wrote in The Idea of a University that “education implies an action upon our mental nature, and the formation of a character; it is something individual and permanent, and is commonly spoken of in connection with religion and virtue.”

But what is the university in light of the challenges posed by COVID-19? Can the university still fulfill her mission? Has the essence of the university emerged more clearly, and what can we learn from past eras of education — ancient, medieval, modern, present day — about what the university is or should be?

Join The Catholic University of America’s President John Garvey, IHE Executive Director Joseph Capizzi, IHE Fellow Jennifer Frey, and IHE Fellow Mark J. Clark for a panel discussion on the idea of the university in the time of COVID-19.
