Can the United States remain united?


July 05, 2011

ASU President Michael M. Crow and former Supreme Court Chief Justice Sandra Day O'Connor joined writers, political scientists and sociologists for a June 13 panel in Washington, D.C., on social, economic and political division.

Leaders and experts discussed such topics as immigration, poverty and race – issues that divide Americans. Crow emphasized the need for "intellectually rigorous, focused, thoughtful debate" in addressing the complexities of such issues.

He also highlighted the efforts of ASU through the recently launched Center for Social Cohesion.
