To paraphrase T. S. Eliot\, ‘with all this information\, where is the wisdom?’” \nThis lecture is a live\, in-person event in Cameron Hall. You do not need to pre-register to attend – just show up. \nBIOGRAPHY: \nMichael Enright is a high school dropout with three honourary degrees and the Order of Canada. He has lectured at the University of Cambridge. 2022 marks his 60th year in the practice of journalism. He began in April 1962 at a weekly newspaper in Brampton\, Ontario and has since worked for TIME Magazine\, The Globe and Mail\, the Toronto Star and Maclean’s Magazine. He was assistant managing editor of Maclean’s and editor of Quest Magazine.  He hosted CBC Radio’s As It Happens for ten years and The Sunday Edition for twenty. Michael Enright’s favourite food is Oreo Cookies.  He likes to ride horses and motorcycles and knows how to brand a calf. \n			\n								\n					\n												← Previous Speaker
