2nd Annual Lewis College Roundtable to be held Oct. 13

During the next Lewis College Roundtable, Digital Discourse and Civil Society, scholars from the fields of digital ethics, social psychology, and gaming will explore what constitutes a civil society in the digital age.

How can we promote ethical behavior and social good in the digital space? Has the Internet fostered more extreme viewpoints on controversial issues? Does the perceived anonymity in the digital space increase bullying and toxicity in online communities? Are the rules of etiquette and civility different online?

Join us as we discuss these questions and more at the next Roundtable. This event is free and open to the entire Illinois Tech and Chicago community.
