Gold Room, Student Center, and Virtual. 

Register in advance for virtual.

Hosted by Professor Jocelyn Wills

Brooklyn College students have a long history of activism on and beyond campus, but we still know far too little about the experiences and postgraduation lives of the vast majority of our students, particularly in the years following the introduction of tuition in 1976. This panel of students will share what they have learned from some of those student activists, from Occupy to COVID-19. Undertaking research into the events that shaped the Brooklyn College experience, student panelists will also interview alumni about what drew them to activism on campus, if and how Brooklyn College transformed their lives, what lessons current students might draw from their experiences, and the ways in which their BC experiences helped to shape their postgraduation lives and careers.

Participating Students

Hosted by Professor Lauren Mancia

Join these History and Religion majors, all upper-level seminar students, in talking through theoretical and historical issues pertaining to the question of religious experience. Do religious objects have their own agency, or is their worth and meaning inscribed by the users of these objects? Does religious experience “really” happen, or is it simply a product of psychological issues? Can religious experience be rationally analyzed, or do you instead just “have to be there?” We’ll have the questions, and you can help us work out the answers (or even more questions).
