Fred Cate ‘Privacy and Consentt’ talk draws captive audience
The College's first Public Policy Lecture Series kicked off with a fascinating talk by privacy expert and Indiana University Professor Fred Cate on September 27.
Cate spoke before a live audience in the Tarble Room of Brown Hall. The talk was livestreamed and recorded.
Students, community members, and faculty asked poignant questions of Cate, who addressed “Privacy and Consent in the Digital Age” in his hour-long discussion. Cate, the C. Ben Dutton Professor of Law at the Indiana University Mauer School of Law, stayed after the talk to speak one-on-one with audience members.
As an introduction to the Public Policy Program, Lake Forest College is hosting a series of public lectures this fall to examine growing concern surrounding challenges the internet poses for individual privacy. Students will explore this same topic in a new Policy Incubator and through the first Public Policy Analysis Challenge in the spring.
