The sixth annual Emory WISE (Welcoming Interfaith and Spiritual Exploration) Pre-Orientation is a wrap - and somehow they just keep getting better every year?!? A wonderful group of students - both the peer mentors and the first years who chose our program to start their Emory experience - learned about interfaith dialogue and engagement while visiting seven different religious communities in Atlanta. Much gratitude to those communities, our chaplains who arranged the visits, our graduate assistant Tori Wright, and the WISE coordinators, Liz Martin and Rev. Maddie Herlong. ❤️✝️🔯🪯🕉️☸️☪️❤️

Reconnecting with Our Hearts: Science, Technology, and Literature

Friday, April 17, 2026, 3:00-4:00 p.m., Brooks Commons, Cannon Chapel

Lunch served starting at 2:30 pm

Join us for a book talk with S.K. Oshi as he discusses his debut book Departure. This science fiction novel tells the story of Amina, a young woman who dreams of going on a sacred journey to explore the stars. But her dream is challenged when a chance encounter uncovers dark truths about her most closely held beliefs. Follow Amina’s trials and adventures as she navigates the demands of family, friendship, love, betrayal and the ruthless competition to earn a spot on the next interstellar mission.

S.K. Oshi is an author of science fiction who enjoys writing stories about human values and beliefs in faraway worlds. As professional futurist and technologist, he enjoys building worlds where alternative technologies, political structures, and complex characters get entangled in unique ways and create settings for timeless human struggles: belonging, identity, love, justice, and faith.
