Barbara Applebaum, associate professor of cultural foundations of education in the School of Education, will moderate the panel, which includes the following experts in religious and LBGT issues:

  • Rabbi Steven Greenberg, National Jewish Center for Learning and Leadership
  • Cris Mayo, associate professor, University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign
  • Rev. Thomas Wolfe, dean, Hendricks Chapel, Syracuse University
  • Rev. Jennifer Baskerville-Burrows, Episcopal chaplain, Hendricks Chapel, and rector, Grace Episcopal Church
  • Adrea Jaehnig, director, SU’s Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Resource Center

The panel discussion is co-sponsored by the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Resource Center; Hillel at Syracuse University/Winnick Hillel Center for Jewish Life; the LGBT Studies Program; the Department of Religion; the Women’s Studies Program; the Department of Sociology; the Department of Anthropology; and the Future Professoriate Program of the Graduate School.
