The theme of our conference is ARISTOTLE AND THE GOOD LIFE. Dr. Jean-Marc Narbonne (Université Laval) will be giving the keynote address. Moreover, the caliber of scholars attending the conference is very impressive. During the Reception, the esteemed classical guitarist, Andrew Mah, will provide ambient music. I am immensely grateful to the very talented people at Saint Paul University for making this happen: Dr. Gregory Bloomquist, Alexandra Mongrain, Yann-Alexandre Girard, Shawn Quin, Jeremie LeBlanc, and the support staff.
