About the Franklin Whitefield Dialogues on Religion:

This distinguished speaker series aims to bring cutting edge thinkers and inspiring leaders to this historic campus to engage our students, faculty and staff around issues related to religion and spirituality in contemporary society. 

In the tradition of the legendary discourse between Dr. Benjamin Franklin and Rev. George Whitefield occurring around the time of the founding of Penn, we are inviting scholars and leaders from outside of our campus community to share a stage and engage in dialogues with a current member of our community on the significant topics of our time relating to Faith and Culture.

Franklin-Whitefield Dialogues are planned roughly monthly during the academic year
