Socrates Cafe @ Bryant Park, by the Reading Area.
Details
Trying something new: new place and new time.
This will be the first time at BRYANT PARK.
Start time: 4pm.
Let's meet by the READING AREA, next to the Chess Area. I will arrive early to try to grab some tables and chairs. I would welcome help.
***
As usual, please bring a simple question for submission for possible discussion.
Please frame the question in a simple interrogative statement.
We follow Christopher Phillips' format, from his book "Socrates Cafe."
1. Ideally, all attendees will submit ONE simple question. Keep it simple (ie: what is genuis?)
2. Each attendee will have 2-3 minutes to explain their respective question, if they want. Be prepared to respond to any possible points of clarity from other attendees.
3. Round ONE: attendees vote for any question they want to discuss. Then, Jorge will tabulate the votes
4. Round TWO: top 2-3 questions are voted upon again. This round, attendees can ONLY VOTE for ONE QUESTION.
5. Discuss "winning question."
Historically, we have discussed top two questions, when circumstances permit.
Jorge will facilitate the discussion/conversation.
Reminders:
Be open-minded, bring your curiosity. It's about Discovery.
Always be Respectful and open to the perspective of others. And be concise.
NOTE: If and when possible, please donate to help defray the annual fees from Meetup.com. Suggested amount ~$15-$20 once a year.
