The spring 2022 “Conversations in and out of the Disciplines” series kicks off this Friday, March 18, when Natalie Szymanski, assistant professor of English and director of the College Writing Program, presents “From Invisible to Promoted Labor: Burning Down Updating the Tenure and Promotion System.” The talk, followed by a question-and-answer session, will begin at 3:00 p.m. in Ketchum Hall 320. Everyone is welcome.

Please also mark your calendars for the second and third talks of the semester. On Friday, April 15, Sue Maguire, associate professor of anthropology, will present “Making Connections: Exploring Interdisciplinary Approaches to Archaeology at Old Fort Niagara, Youngstown, New York.” 

And on Friday, April 29, Gehan Senthinathan, assistant professor of social and psychological foundations of education and adult education, will present “Sweet Neuroscience: Intermittent Access and Excessive (Addiction-like) Consumption.”  Each of the talks will begin at 3:00 p.m. in Ketchum Hall, Room 320, and will be followed by a Q&A.

The “Conversations” series was started over a decade ago by Ann Colley, SUNY Distinguished Professor Emerita of English, to “celebrate and draw attention to the research being done in various departments at Buffalo State College.” Over the last few years, colleagues from Anthropology, Art Conservation, Art History, Biology, English, History, Mathematics, Philosophy, Political Science, and Secondary Education (among others) have shared their work with the Buffalo State and Buffalo communities.
