Upcoming Events
Alumni Lunch Series Ernesto Lopez
Panel Discussion/Presentation
The Alumni Lunch Series is now CHaSS Trailheads, but our events will continue to provide meaningful opportunities for current students to connect with our amazing alumni. All USU students, faculty, staff, and alumni are welcome to attend!
Join us on November 5 for a discussion with Ernesto Lopez (BA SPAN ’04, MS ITLS ‘10), Instructional Designer for USU Extension’s Online Programs Initiative.
Ernesto has a enjoyed a varied career that has always demonstrated his commitment to community. He spent more than a decade with Bear River Head Start before working to train domestic and international franchise owners. But what made him pivot to instructional design and how did he find himself as the first Hispanic and first immigrant to serve on the Logan City Council? Come meet Ernesto and learn how to change your view without losing your perspective.
Ernesto’s presentation will be held in MAIN 115 at 1:30pm on Friday, November 5.
Please wear a mask and help us continue to host in-person events this semester.
Refreshments will be provided after the event.

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.

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).
