CUI Bono Cast

CUI Bono Podcast Logo

The CUI Bono Cast is a regular podcast that features lively academic extracurricular presentations and conversations happening throughout Concordia University Irvine. The CUI Bono club started as a volunteer group of faculty and students. The podcast is an expansion of that spirit of service, as it amplifies the work of various groups on campus, from the Living Learning Communities, to the Honors Program, to the Crosswise Institute.

In addition to curating the best of our outside-of-class conversations, we will also let the world eavesdrop on the beloved CUI Bono talks and conversations themselves, and will occasionally include special interviews on current issues. Since CUI Bono asks Who Stands to Benefit? this podcast will help listeners answer that question as they apply the tools of the liberal arts to life in our complex times. You don’t have to be a brainiac or bookish type, just someone with a delight in the life of the mind and an interest in wrestling through the big questions and ideas that have preoccupied people throughout the ages.
