Concordia faculty and researchers are regularly asked to offer expert, informed opinions on many of today's most pressing problems. Read some of the latest news items about Concordians:

• The Montreal Gazette publishes an opinion piece by André Gagné, associate professor in the departments of Religion and Theological Studies, in which he expands on the idea that the best way to reach out to young people who could be susceptible to radical ideology is through education. Gagné argues that education should be at the heart of Quebec's recently-unveiled anti-radicalization plan.
• Craig Morrison, part-time instructor in the Department of Music, is mentioned in an interview with music producer and writer Melissa Maya Falkenberg, published in Rreverb. Falkenberg tells the interviewer that she studied music with Morrison in classes at Concordia and privately.
• Concordia librarian and doctoral candidate Olivier Charbonneau, a noted expert on copy and other artists' rights, is quoted in an article in Le Devoir about plans by the City of Montreal to demolish or move sculptures by artist Charles Daudelin from the vicinity of Viger Square. In the article, Charbonneau talks about the limits to artists' moral rights over their work.
