Monday’s colloquium was a really approachable, clear, sharp presentation about feminist epistemology from Sharon Crasnow, a local philosopher of science, recently retired from Norco College, who will be a visiting fellow at the famed department in Pittsburgh this coming Spring. Sharon brought some much-needed analytical clarity to the debate about feminist STS, laying out its origins in Marxist analysis as well as bringing us up to date about the controversies that beset it to this day.
Next Monday, on All-Hallows’ Eve, we will be rattling some SSP skeletons courtesy of Feminist Theory Theater. This event will be held in the Mandeville Suite on the 11th floor of Tioga Hall. Whoever wishes to stay on for a drink afterwards is most welcome. Please bring a bottle of your favorite tipple, and join us for perhaps the most unorthodox colloquium presentation in the quarter century of the program….
