The 16th year of Buffalo State University’s own interdisciplinary lecture series, “Conversations in and out of the Disciplines,” continues this spring with talks by Jason Knight, associate professor in the Political Science, Public Administration, and Planning Department, and Mary Beth Sullivan, lecturer in the College Writing Program. Please mark your calendars.

Dr. Knight will present “Racialized Economic Segregation: The Regulatory Framework of Urban Enclosure” on Friday, March 15; and Ms. Sullivan will present “‘I Do Not Think It Means What You Think It Means’: Understanding Misalignments between Students and Professors in Writing Assignments” on Friday, April 5. The talks, followed by a brief Q&A, will begin at 3:00 p.m. in Ketchum Hall 320. A short wine and cheese reception will follow. Everyone is welcome.

The “Conversations” series was started 16 years 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 University.” Over this time, colleagues from Anthropology, Art Conservation, Art History, Biology, Chemistry, English, History, Mathematics, Philosophy, Political Science, and Secondary Education, among others, have shared their work with the Buffalo State and Buffalo communities.
