“Deadly Medicine: Creating the Master Race”

Starting this week, the HUB Robeson Galleries will be host to a traveling exhibition from the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum that investigates the role that science and medicine played in ‘justifying’ the persecution and genocide carried out by the Nazi regime between 1933 and 1945.  This is a topic that is particularly relevant to our discussion of values, rationality, and objectivity in science.  I hope that everyone will make the effort to see the exhibit while it is here and, perhaps, to attend one or more of the events that are scheduled around it.  If you do, please share your thoughts with the rest of us by commenting on this blog post or on our Facebook page.
