Great Decisions
Marjorie Bond to lead next discussion forum, focusing on ‘Migration’
The topic of “Migration” will be discussed at the next Great Decisions program at Monmouth College on Feb. 10.
Faculty member Marjorie Bond will introduce the topic at 7:30 p.m. in the Moot Board Room (Room 276) of the Center for Science and Business, 720 E. Broadway. The program, which is free and open to the public, will include approximately one hour of group discussion following Bond’s remarks. As a record number of migrants crosses the Mediterranean Sea to find refuge in Europe, the continent is struggling to come up with an adequate response. Although Europe’s refugees are largely fleeing conflicts in Syria, Iraq and parts of Africa, their struggle is hardly unique. Today, with the number of displaced people at an all-time high, a number of world powers find themselves attempting to balance border security with humanitarian concerns. Great Decisions is a nationwide program sponsored by the Foreign Policy Association, a non-partisan, non-governmental association that works to increase Americans’ understanding of significant foreign policy issues.
