Socrates Cafe @ Bryant Park, by the Reading Area.

About this event

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. Zelle to 917 613.9736. Thank you. always with gratitude, Jorge
