Presented by Dr. Ben Fraser, Westminster-Canterbury Fellow of Religious Studies and Lifelong Learning

C.S. Lewis was one of the intellectual giants of the 20th century and one of the most influential writers of his day. He wrote more than 30 books, including The Chronicles of Narnia. Together with his friend J.R.R. Tolkien, Lewis formed a literary discussion group known as the Inklings. Come learn about this warm, engaging man and his robust enjoyment of life, community, friends, and stimulating conversation!

This event is presented by the Westminster-Canterbury Lifelong Learning Institute in partnership with Virginia Wesleyan University.

Cyber Secuirity & Scams
The FBI is the lead federal agency for investigating cyber attacks by criminals, overseas adversaries, and terrorists. The threat is incredibly serious and growing. Cyber intrusions are becoming more commonplace, more dangerous, and more sophisticated. Our nation’s critical infrastructure, including both private and public sector networks, are targeted by adversaries.

Counter Terrorism
Protecting the United States from terrorist attacks is the FBI’s number one priority. The Bureau employs a variety of disciplines and works closely with a range of partners to neutralize terrorist cells and operatives here in the U.S., help dismantle extremist networks worldwide, and cut off financing and other forms of support provided to foreign terrorist organizations by terrorist sympathizers.

Healthcare Fraud
Rooting out health care fraud is central to the well-being of both our citizens and the overall economy. Health care fraud costs the country tens of billions of dollars a year. Some patients are also harmed in furtherance of these schemes.The FBI is the primary agency for exposing and investigating health care fraud, with jurisdiction over both federal and private insurance programs. Health care fraud investigations are considered a high priority within the Complex Financial Crime Program, and each of the FBI’s 56 field offices has personnel assigned specifically to investigate health care fraud matters. Thier field offices proactively target fraud through coordinated initiatives, task forces and strike teams, and undercover operations.

Civil Rights
Since its earliest days, the FBI has helped protect the civil rights of the American people. A dozen of its first 34 special agents, for example, were experts in peonage—the modern-day equivalent of slave labor. The Bureau began battling the KKK as early as 1918, and for years it handled color of law cases involving police brutality. Today protecting civil rights remains one of its top priorities.

The FBI is the primary federal agency responsible for investigating allegations regarding violations of federal civil rights statutes. These laws are designed to protect the civil rights of all persons—citizens and non-citizens alike—within U.S. territory. Using its full suite of investigative and intelligence capabilities, the Bureau works closely with its partners to prevent and address hate crime, human trafficking, color of law violations, and Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act violations.
