Home News Veterans Organization to host panel

The newly-formed Hillsdale Student Veterans Organization will be hosting a panel “Is War Moral?” at 5 p.m. on Nov. 12 in Phillips Auditorium.

“You could basically say that every soldier that goes to war has to wrestle with this issue of ‘can I kill someone else, is that ethical,’” said Nathan Seither, senior and vice president of the group.

The panel will feature pastor of St. Anthony of Padua Catholic Church and U.S. Army Infantry veteran the Rev. David Reamsnyder, Hillsdale College Chaplain and former U.S. Navy Chaplain Peter Beckwith, and Professor of History Brad Birzer. Associate Dean of Men and U.S. Navy veteran Jeffery Rogers will be moderating.

According to senior Matthew Duquette, president and co-founder of the group, each speaker was chosen for their particular experience, authority, or expertise about the topic, and are free to explore the issue from any perspective.
