Event Description

Adina Nack, Ph.D., CLU associate professor of sociology, will discuss her past work with the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) Task Force for Studies on Sexuality, in particular the presentations she gave during the production of Journey Together Faithfully, Part Three. As a sexuality studies expert, Nack will focus on some aspects of sexuality that the ELCA Task Force found to be particularly relevant and controversial for their parishioners: premarital sexuality, sexuality after divorce, and nonmarital sexuality in late adulthood. She will present some of the key research findings on these topics and conclude with questions that reflect the concerns raised in the Task Force discussions.

Allison Wee of the English Department, Julius Bianchi of Information Systems Services and Paul Egertson of the Religion Departent will respond to the presentation.

Admission is free. This event was previously scheduled for April 16.
