Yaron Brook, Executive Director of the Ayn Rand Institute, gave a talk at Wheeling Jesuit University on March 6, 2007. The title of his talk was: “In Defense of the Morality of Free Financial Markets.” The talk was sponsored by the Institute for the Study of Capitalism and Morality at WJU, as part of their distinguished speakers series. The talk was well received, and according to Ed Younkins, Director of the Institute for the Study of Capitalism and Morality, Dr. Brook’s ideas “were still being talked about daily by students and faculty well over a month later.”
As reported here before, the Institute for the Study of Capitalism and Morality is a recipient of a grant from BB&T.
