2009 Festival emphasizes "evolution"

David | December 11th, 2008

From the evolution of our existence to our ideas, West Virginia University’s annual Festival of Ideas will feature many of today’s pre-eminent thinkers and scientists.

This year’s “evolution”-themed line-up – inspired by the 200th birthday of Charles Darwin and his profound impact on culture – includes best-selling author Walter Isaacson, professor and public intellectual Cornel West, PBS anchor Gwen Ifill and renowned paleontologist Meave Leakey.
