Mark Schenker, Associate Dean at Yale College, will examine Dorothy's heroic journey in The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. In a tradition that ranges from the epic adventure of Odysseus to the comic escape of Huckleberry Finn, join in a discussion about how, from Dorothy's accidental landing in Oz to her reluctant acceptance of her power, her struggle to get back home is also a journey forward to greater understanding of herself and the world.
