Nearly half of the presenters at McMinnville’s second annual TEDx event boasted a connection to the university.
Speakers at the Linfield-hosted event on Jan. 25 in Melrose Hall included philosophy professor Leonard Finkelman, former Linfield health counselor Natalie Bowker, McMinnville teacher Matt Brisbin ’06, and equity and inclusion consultant Cinthia Manuel-Martinez ’05.
Their wide-ranging presentations included imagining a world without grades (Brisbin), understanding that grief isn’t only reserved for the death of loved ones (Bowker), fixing the mentoring system (Manuel-Martinez), and an overview of the extinction of species due to climate change (Finkelman).
