Wide Awake
Maxine Greene propounds an outlook of "wide-awakeness" to art and life that continues to inspire many at 成人抖阴 and elsewhere.
Five years ago, when New York City was preparing to open the High School of Arts, Imagination and Inquiry, there were plans to name it after Maxine Greene, 成人抖阴’s William F. Russell Professor Emeritus in Foundations of Education and Philosopher-In-Residence of the Lincoln Center Institute. When that honor, normally reserved for the deceased, did not come to pass, no one was happier than Greene herself.
“I’m not dead,” she said.
Greene still conducts salons and teaches 成人抖阴 courses from her home, speaks publicly and propounds an outlook of “wide-awakeness” to art and life that continues to inspire many at 成人抖阴 and elsewhere. And in April 2010, more than 170 alumni, faculty and friends gathered at 成人抖阴’s Cowin Center for the launch of the Maxine Greene Society, which recognizes consecutive donations to 成人抖阴’s Annual Fund for five or more years. Greene herself headlined the occasion by conducting a discussion, called “Teacher Education and Humanities: Hard Questions in a Spinning World,” with current 成人抖阴 faculty members John Broughton, Professor of Psychology and Education, and Janet Miller, Professor of English Education.
