Sometime in 2012 : WAIT, WAIT...DON'T TELL ME Just to let everyone know - WEOS is working to bring NPR's hit show, the oddly informative news quiz, Wait, Wait...Don't Tell Me! to the Finger Lakes region. Originally we were hoping for 2011 but WWDTM's schedule appears to not work for 2011, so now it's probably going to be 2012...most likely in late spring (May or June) but it's hard to say this far in advance.
We'll post details and updates as they come!

The Fisher Center brings together faculty, students, and experts in gender-related fields in the arts, humanities, and social and natural sciences to foster mutual understanding and social justice in contemporary society. For Fall 2010, we welcome new director Cedric Johnson, associate professor of political science at HWS, with a new theme for the Lecture Series: Engendering Crisis. In his new role as director, Johnson and the center's committees will tackle the tough issue of Engendering Crisis and crisis in general. "Most obviously, we'll be dealing with the economic crisis in this region and more broadly as a national phenomenon - it's certainly a timely subject," Johnson explained. "But we're also looking to explore crisis beyond that of macroeconomics. There are many scholars who are writing in different disciplines about the topic: it applies to gender studies and to the lives of ordinary people." The Spring 2010 semester's lineup of speakers will be:
Jan.27 (Wed) 7:30pm Constructing Pookie: The Neoliberal Politics of the Black Male CrisisLester Spence - MP3 Audio Archive
Feb.17 (Wed) 7:30pm From Mr. Baum to Waltz with Bashir: New Masculinity in Contemporary Israeli CinemaDorit Naaman
