> Contemplation has been recognized across time and culture as  
> essential to the pursuit of knowledge and wisdom, yet it remains  
> almost entirely absent from today's curriculum and pedagogy.  
> Contemplative knowing is a missing link, one that affects student  
> performance, character, and depth of understanding.

> The panelists will talk about the insights to contemplative  
> practice, and the practical and natural role of contemplation in  
> life-long learning, including formal education.
