  • affirmative action
  • education and social justice
  • peacebuilding and peacemaking
  • nonviolence and nonviolent social change

Each session lasts about an hour, and sessions run in line with our regular class schedule (10:00 and 11:30 am;1:00 and 2:30 pm).

Please consider offering a Freedom School session on a topic of your choosing. Sessions led by Villanova students and staff are welcomed and encouraged. If you wish to make a proposal you can do so either online or fill out the attached form and email it to william.werpehowski@villanova.edu.
