The Christa McAuliffe Center invites multigenerational audiences to a series of conversations that will explore key formative moments in the life of Christa McAuliffe; examine the historical context of the 1986 Challenger mission; and reflect on the lessons learned from the tragedy.
In our open discussion of the Challenger, we will highlight influencing factors that impacted the ethical decision-making process, including engineering codes of ethics, communication styles, and organizational cultures. We will use these factors to encourage the audience to explore how these decisions are made today and how the increasing integration of AI into engineering contexts will affect ethical decision making.
Speakers: Jennifer Braggin, Sr. Lecturer, The Gordon Institute, Tufts University;
Amy Hirschfeld, Distinguished Sr. Lecturer, The Gordon Institute, Tufts University

This is progress and I am glad to see the Select Board moving in the right direction. However, a majority of voters at last Monday's Special Town Meeting voted to recommend that the Select Board immediately cease its lawsuit against the Westwood Land Trust.
What is the citizen's petition about? I checked the town website, and the only information I could find on town meeting articles was from last year. The public hearing dates for 2026 are posted as February 24-25.
Apparently, you need to submit a public records request through the town's FOIA portal. What a shame, since it should have been posted to the town website upon certification of petition signatures.
Westwood Minute has obtained a copy of the petition and has added a short description of it to the article. A copy of the petition is attached below the article.
