March Assembly - Verbal Vagaries

Our guest speaker is Benjamin Bergen, Professor of Cognitive Science at UC San Diego. He’ll discuss research showing that humans are in fact quite resilient in the face of ambiguous language, from homophones (to, two, and too) to headlines (Children’s Stool Good For Use in Garden).

Join our celebration! Assembly also includes a reading, how a member is doing their best, and a moment of reflection. As usual, we'll rejoice by singing along with our band!

Be sure to register in advance. More details coming!


SASV is an inclusive secular community, meaning we don’t advocate for any religious or spiritual beliefs, but we do welcome and respect others, including agnostics, atheists, humanists, believers, and LGBTQ people. Please celebrate life with us!

We usually have 30+ attendees. Before and after the celebration, we'll have optional breakout-room social mingling. During the celebration, all but the presenters are muted, but you can sing along, text chat, and share your video so that you and your live image are part of the experience!
