Guests on the panel:

Rev. Dr. Ken Clarke, Sr., Director of Cornell United Religious Work, a multi-faith community on the Cornell University campus.

Dr. Deborah Rosenbaum, clinical psychologist with the Binghamton University counseling program

Rev. Dr. Joe Sellepack, Executive Director of the Broome County Council of Churches

Rev. Dr. Art Suggs, pastor of Binghamton's First Congregational Church
