Why is Dr. Carrie Rinker-Schaeffer, director of Urologic Research at UChicago, feeding Darth Vader a triangular cookie? The 67th Annual Latke-Hamantash Debate was held Tuesday in Mandel Hall. The three contenders—Rinker-Schaeffer, Prof. Rachel Fulton Brown (medieval history), and Prof. Harold Pollack (Social Service Administration)—used their unique brands of expertise to defend either of the two traditional Jewish foods in a debate moderated by Prof. Ted Cohen (philosophy). #Jewish #Hanukkah #Purim #food #latke #hamantash #dessert #starwars #debate #UChicago #tradition
