Tocqueville Forum Reading Group
Since Fall 2007, the Tocqueville Forum has hosted a weekly reading group principally for undergraduates interested in our mission. An informal gathering led by past Forum Postdoctoral Fellow Brian Smith, the group read Tocqueville's Democracy in America and various Platonic dialogues in previous semesters.As of right now, we are still working on a syllabus and plan for the weekly reading group during the Fall 2009 semester.
"The health of a democratic society may be measured by the quality of functions performed by private citizens."
