Since 1991 inquirers have gathered at Amherst, New York, each summer for what has become the core program of the Center for Inquiry/Institute. Course offerings have ranged from intensive seminars, packed into every minute of a long weekend, to course-length immersive sessions.
All course sessions will be held at the newly-expanded Center for Inquiry in Amherst, New York. With the completion of our new annex, the Center complex can accommodate meetings of more than 300 people with unprecedented logistical and audio-visual support. Its lecture halls, library areas, breakout rooms, reception areas, and outdoor courtyard will offer a stimulating setting for intensive education and interpersonal encounter.
The largest campus of the nation's largest state university system, the State University of New York at Buffalo's North Campus is located immediately adjacent to the Center for Inquiry. UB has frequently offered logistical support for the CFI - Institute summer sessions and its dormitories will offer lodging and meals for participants in the 4+ week immersion program.
Information on CFI & SUNY master's degree in science, reason, and society is available at scienceandthepublic.org.
