Upcoming Events
The Afghanistan Crisis: The Challenges of Peacekeeping and Peacebuilding
Panel Discussion/Presentation
The US experience in Afghanistan raises important questions about the meaning of peacekeeping and peacebuilding, and the ability of the US to engage in either one. What should global visions of peacekeeping be? Is it even possible to move from peacekeeping to peacebuilding? Our aim with this panel is to promote a campus-wide discussion on the meanings of peacebuilding and peacekeeping by bringing together practitioners and academics. Speakers include Dr. Danielle Ross, Ms. Somaye Sarvarzade, and Brig-Gen Tyler Smith. Sponsored by the Global Peacebuilding Certificate program and the Tanner Humanities program.
CHaSS Trailheads: Nelda Ault-Dyslin (AMER '05), Community Service Coordinator & CRIC Founder
Panel Discussion/Presentation
On Friday, November 19, the College of Humanities and Social Sciences will host an alumni presentation with Nelda Ault-Dyslin, the current Community Service Coordinator for Utah State University's Val R. Christensen Service Center and founder of the Cache Refugee and Immigrant Connection.
An avid volunteer, Nelda has given her time to several non-profits including HELP International in El Salvador and the Bowling Green International Center, a resettlement center founded to serve Bosnian refugees. Students interested in serving communities in need will want to hear Nelda detail her experiences making a big difference on a local level. Join us for an engaging conversation and learn how you can become a more involved member of the USU community. Open to all students, faculty, and staff!

The Foyer: LGBTQ Mormon History and Theology
Conference/Seminar
Zoom Webinar Event
No other issue is as publicly prominent or as vexing for contemporary Mormonism as the relationship between the LDS Church and the LGBTQ community. We will discuss the history of LDS teachings about homosexuality, the recent emergence of “queer Mormon theology,” and how LGBTQ Latter-day Saints navigate the complex tensions of their religion and sexuality. Patrick will be joined by authors of two recent and important books on these subjects. Blaire Ostler is a philosopher who works at the intersection of queer, Mormon, and transhumanist thought. She is the author of Queer Mormon Theology: An Introduction (By Common Consent Press, 2021). Taylor Petrey is an associate professor of religion and chair of the Religion Department at Kalamazoo College. The editor of Dialogue: A Journal of Mormon Thought, Petrey’s most recent book is Tabernacles of Clay: Sexuality and Gender in Modern Mormonism (University of North Carolina Press, 2020).
