Montana - 'Sorry' Seen As Magic Word to Avoid Suits By LINDSEY TANNER, AP ‘I'm sorry ... so sorry' By The Helena IR - 11/12/04 On Tuesday, Nov. 16, Dr. Aaron Lazare, chancellor, dean and professor of psychiatry at the University of Massachusetts Medical School, will give a presentation, "Apologies and Forgiveness" in the Avila/DeSmet/Rice room in the Carroll College Campus Center at 7 p.m. A leading authority on the psychology of shame and humiliation, Lazare is the author of a new book entitled, "On Apology" (Oxford University Press, 2004). Carroll College is co-sponsoring this event with the Helena Education Foundation, and it is free to the public. "One of the most profound interactions of civilized people is the offering and acceptance of apologies," Lazare says. "The importance of apologies in personal relationships has its parallel in national and international affairs. The dynamics of both are similar." Lazare will also be among several hosts presiding over a dinner table at the Helena Education Foundation's Great Conversations, 5:30 p.m., Wednesday, Nov. 17, at the Best Western Great Northern Hotel. Each discussion leader will introduce a topic and launch talking points over a gourmet dinner. Tickets are $60 with reservations required by today.
