​​This month: 

​​​​We’re very excited to continue our wonderful discussions with all of you—August’s salon will be on the topic “Is sweat virtuous” 

​​​​As always:

​​​​We will start our discussion at 7. 

​​​​As always:

​​​​If you would like to prepare an opening statement, please let Chris and Celeste know ahead of time.

​​​​As always:

​​​​We will procure pizza so that we are all well fed before the hard work of conversation begins in earnest. 

​​​​Like last time:

​​​​Since August 8 will not be a school night, please come with a drink to share; if anyone offends you during the discussion, you can take it up with them in the Liberties office after we record. 

​​​​As always:

​​​​Please take the painful weeks of waiting until we meet to meditate on the topic, prepare your thoughts, form judgments and find sources to enliven our discussion. We look forward to seeing you all soon.
