IOP Pritzker Fellow Jon Tester on "Food for Thought" THIS SEMINAR IS OPEN TO CURRENT UCHICAGO STUDENTS ONLY Wednesday, February 12 12:30-1:45pm I am a third-generation farmer, and the challenges of my grandparents are different from mine. One of the most interesting “horseshoe” political trends to emerge this year is contempt for big agriculture. So in what ways is the central messenger of this rancor, RFK Jr, correct in his criticisms, and what does he get wrong? Let’s talk, the Stockyards Act, costs, what “high processed” really means and the impacts of fertilizer, chemicals, and GMOs on our food. Pritzker Fellows seminars are off the record and open to current UChicago students only. Seating in the IOP Living Room is limited and available on a first-come, first-served basis. If you have any questions about accessibility, please contact Sarah Palmisciano (spalmisciano@uchicago.edu).
