Upcoming Events
New Faculty Lunch Series: Sauda Nabukenya
Breakfast/Luncheon/Dinner
Dean Ward is continuing the Meet the New Faculty Lunchtime Series. Place these dates on your calendar and plan to attend! Each new faculty member will give a brief 10 minute informal presentation about their research and teaching interests, leaving plenty of time for discussion to find opportunities for collaboration across departments.
Sauda Nabukenya is Assistant Professor of Modern African History at Utah State University. As a passionate legal historian and archivist, she is deeply committed to preserving and organizing neglected and endangered local archives, as well as uncovering the hidden histories of ordinary people often obscured in official archives.
Faculty, make sure to RSVP to chass@usu.edu for food count. A zoom link is also available.
Tanner Talks Series: From Books to Biscuits
Panel Discussion/Presentation | Tanner Talks
The College of Humanities and Social Sciences and the Merrill-Cazier Library are continuing the Tanner Talks Series! Come and watch Ella Hawkins create biscuits which resemble rare books from our very own Special Collections. Hawkins is a Senior Lecturer at the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama, and the author of Shakespeare in Elizabethan Costume: 'Period Dress' in Twenty-First Century Performance.
From Books to Biscuits
Lecture/Readings
How does a rare, historic book become a piece of 21st-century edible art? Join Ella Hawkins as she creates a new biscuit (cookie) design based on an early printed book from USU’s special collections. As well as demonstrating this design process, Ella will look back at her past biscuit sets and discuss the unique qualities of printed texts from different periods.
Contemporary Legends in a Polarized World (Derek Agard Distinguished Lecture)
Lecture/Readings
In a country where trust is at an all-time low and polarization at an all-time high, is everything a legend? Using examples of contemporary or “urban” legends from across the US, Tom Mould, Professor of Anthropology and Folklore (Butler University), explores new approaches to legend research that help us navigate our current landscape of fake news, conspiracy theories, and echo chambers. In the process, Professor Mould upends some long held beliefs about what contemporary legends are, what they do, and what they can tell us about ourselves and the polarized world we live in.
