On Thursday, December 6 at 5:15pm in Room 1-190, we will be hosting, along with the MIT Faculty Newsletter, a panel discussion on MIT’s relationship with the Saudi Arabian government and monarchy. The horrific murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi has spurred MIT to reassess its engagement with Saudi Arabia. This is good news and a good start. However, much needs to be done if MIT is to seriously consider the ethical demands on any relationship the Institute nurtures—whether individual, corporate or with a nation-state.
