Bard College and West Point Faculty Collaborate on New Book
Intolerance: Political Animals and Their Prey is the product of a year-long multi-disciplinary collaboration between faculty members of Bard College and the United States Military Academy at West Point. The project involved parallel seminar courses at both institutions along with joint sessions, all focused on the central theme of intolerance, and culminated in a three-day academic conference at Bard in the spring of 2015. This volume inaugurates a new series being published by Hamilton Books under the general title, Dialogues on Social Issues: Bard College and West Point.
