At 4:15 p.m. on Jan. 30 in the Burling Library Lounge, please join the Office of Corporate, Foundation, and Government Relations and the Grinnell College Libraries for the first Faculty/Staff Research Talk of 2024!

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:

Idelle Cooper ’01 (Biology): “Jewelwing Damselfly Mating Behavior and Speciation”
Jenny Kenkel (Mathematics): “Commutative Algebra: An Abstraction of Whole Numbers”
Collin Nolte (Statistics): “What You See Is What You Get: A Closer Look at Bias in the Visual World Paradigm”
Gina Schlesselman-Tarango (Science Library): “Reproductive Labor and Information Work”

Refreshments will be served.

Grinnell College welcomes the participation of people with disabilities. Accommodation requests may be made to Conference Operations.

The College welcomes the presence of minors at all age-appropriate public events and for informal visits, with the understanding that a parent, legal guardian, or other responsible adult assumes full responsibility for their child’s safety and behavior during such visits or events. In these cases the College expects that an adult responsible for the visiting child takes measures to ensure the child’s safety and sees that the child complies with directions of College personnel. Grinnell College is not responsible for supervision of minors on campus.

This venue is equipped with an induction hearing loop system, which enables individuals with hearing aids set to T-Coil to hear the program.
