John V Clyne Lectures at Green College: The Future of University Study—Ideas in Dialogue

Where Are the Students?

Where do our students live? Where do they study? Starting from the current ambitious dormitory building project at UBC, this first lecture in a series of three by Robert Gibbs explores two ideas about university study: isolation and permeability. The lecture will conclude with the concept of urban epistemology, offering reflection on how students also learn in the city.
