December 17, 2013
The Center for Ethics, Humanities and Spirituality will host, The Wisdom of “Wit,”
at 6 p.m. Jan. 8 at the TTUHSC Academic Classroom Building Room 150, located at 3601
Fourth St.
Megan Cole will perform the dramatized lecture of Margaret Edson’s Pulitzer Prize-winning
play. In The Wisdom of “Wit,” she leads the audience through the play’s gripping story,
alternately acting every character and interpreting the play’s perspectives on important
end-of-life issues. The play is intended for educational purposes in medical schools,
health care facilities and all organizations whose goal is the care and well-being
of patients and those who love them.
At the University of Texas Health Science Center in Houston, Cole developed workshops
on empathic physician-patient communication, as well as literature and the art of
medicine. She now takes these workshops and other related performances to health care
and end-of-life care venues across the country.
The performance is free to the public. For more information, call Rachel Forbes at
