Presented at the CiRCE Fall Regional Conference 2024.

How do we “cultivate virtue” in our children and students? Is virtue cultivate by simply knowing what is virtuous? What role does “habit training” have in cultivating virtue, if any? In this talk, Dr. Matthew Bianco will argue that knowledge doesn’t lead to virtue, nor do habits lead to virtue, but love leads to virtue. Except, love uses knowledge and habits to cultivate virtue. Join him as he discusses how cultivate virtue in our children and students through the interplay of love, knowledge, and habits.
