Alissa Quart
"Hothouse Kids:
The Dilemma of the Gifted Child"

Sponsored by the Liberal Arts Forum

Tuesday, Oct. 2, Whitley Auditorium, 7:30 p.m.

Has parental obsession with identifying and nurturing the slightest giftedness
in children produced a “prodigy industry” that robs youth of simple childhood experiences? Ms. Quart turns a skeptical eye on the genius-building business and
paints a bittersweet picture of what the life of a child prodigy really looks like.
