Symposium: Children and Childhood in the Bhagavata Purana

(07/29/20 12:36pm)

Krishna, a major Hindu deity, is widely perceived to be a wise, cosmic figure. However, the Bhagavatam Purana reveals a more complex character that also delights in mischief and playfulness. English Language and Religious Studies student Makoto Takata analyzes the contrast between stories of Krishna's early life, and other sections of the text that discourage playfulness and birth. She discusses a theatrical tradition that appears to balance these two portrayals of childhood.

Symposium: Political Experience - Does it matter? And to whom?

(06/16/20 11:10pm)

Voters have a lot of issues to consider before heading to the polls, from abortion to gun control, health care to climate change, the list goes on. But what about the candidates themselves? To what extent do things like university experience and career background sway voters’ perceptions? A recent rise in anti-establishment rhetoric brings into question how candidates’ attitude towards the political “establishment“ informs voters’ choices. Political science student Heather Weigel conducted a study to understand how a candidate’s political experience can impact voters’ perceptions.
