Amy Cavender

Amy Cavender is a member of the Congregation of the Sisters of the Holy Cross and an Assistant Professor of Political Science at Saint Mary’s College, where she teaches both introductory and upper-level courses in Political Thought, as well as courses in Religion and Politics and Human Rights. Her current research interests are in ecumenical dialogue and the lessons it might provide for the conduct of political discourse in pluralistic societies.

Amy has been a lover of all things technical since her first introduction to the Commodore PET when she was in grade school. She’s always looking for new and interesting ways to integrate digital tools into her courses, without making them the focus.

In addition to Prof. Hacker, you can find Amy on Twitter and at Zotero. She also blogs (far too infrequently!) at amycavender.org.
