About The Event

We have long been taught that time is not sufficient for both a healthy family life, with an early start, and a successful professional career. But is that actually true? As our speakers will show, it is not.

In the course of this seminar, Professor Catherine Pakaluk and Professor Joseph Price, both fellows of the Austin Institute and, respectively, mother of 8 and father of 7, will show us how men and women can and may navigate their daily challenges inside and outside the home. They will talk about time, about money, and about children: and about what it is that we all need.

This is a 3-week long series, with each week coveirng a new topic:

Tu. Aug 31: Where Are all of the Good Marriageble Men?, Prof. Price

Th. Sept 9: Time, Motherhood, and the Self: Stories from American Women Quietly Defying the Nation's Birth Dearth, Prof. Pakaluk
