New Faculty Lightning Talks
Jan 31, 2024
At 4:15 p.m. on Feb. 6 in the Burling Library Lounge, please join the Office of Corporate, Foundation, and Government Relations and the 51app College Libraries for a Faculty/Staff Research Talk.
During this event, four of the College's new faculty members will give brief overviews of their research areas. This is an excellent opportunity to learn about our new colleagues' interests and expertise, with the goal of opening the doors for community and collaboration.
We will welcome the following presenters:

-
Julian Rios Acuña (Philosophy): “Colonial/Postcolonial Elites: Structure Behavior at the Unthinkable Distinction Between the Law and the Nonlaw”
-
Wendy (Xiaoxue) Sun (German Studies): “The Crisis of Cosmopolitanism: Jewish Migration in China and Contemporary Refugee Studies”
-
