DESCRIPTION:You are warmly invited to attend “Shifting Networks\, Changing 
 Identities: The Hidden Social Costs of College Education\,” with guest spe
 aker Professor Anthony S. Laden\, Centre for Ethics and Education\, Univer
 sity of Illinois.  \n\nThis lecture is presented by the Katharine A. Pears
 on Chair in Civil Society and Public Policy\, in collaboration with the Ce
 ntre for the Study of Learning and Performance and Professor Kevin McDonou
 gh\, McGill University Faculty of Education.  \n\nThe event is open to all
  – no registration required.  \n\nAbstract \n\n“Drawing on material from m
 y recent book\, Networks of Trust\, I argue that colleges and \n	universiti
 es impose hidden social costs on some of their students through the very 
 \n	process of educating them. I focus on the role education plays in shapin
 g the set of \n	sources of information that students trust (their “informat
 ional trust networks”) and the \n	grounds they have for deciding what kinds
  of sources to trust (their “informational \n	ideology”). While one effect 
 of this process is to improve students’ capacities for \n	knowledge\, it ne
 vertheless pulls some students away from the communities in which \n	they g
 rew up\, communities who occupy and are held together by different trust 
 \n	networks. Political criticisms of higher education from both the left an
 d the right can be \n	understood\, then\, as giving expression to the anxie
 ties this process provokes.” \n
