Announcements
- LECTURE SERIES
The NU Research Council is pleased to announce a new project, monthly lecture series, beginning this spring. These lectures are open to the University community, and are designed to present current scholarship on broad-appeal issues. Faculty are invited to offer their current topics in all fields, to embrace a wide NU audience. This series will occur in stages, with the first year being limited to NU faculty, so as to iron out the logistics of venue, dates, times, participation and delivery to regional faculty, etc. Later, we will expand it to include outside and international scholars.Presentations are to be 45 minutes, plus time for questions.The first lecture of the series is scheduled for May 2008:
Dr. Maureen O'Hara, Chair, Dept. Psychology (COLS): "Minding the Edge of Chaos: A futurist looks at the impact of globalization"
In this first run of the lecture series, lectures will occur at the main San Diego location. Lectures will be recorded and archived for viewing by the NU community. Stay tuned to further emails about upcoming presentations. NU faculty can forward lecture ideas and topics to Mike Maxwell (COLS, Department of Math & Natural Sciences): mmaxwell@nu.edu.
- NATIONAL UNIVERSITY'S NEW STUDENT NEWSPAPER
National University launched the first-ever student run online newspaper, The Herald, which can be reviewed at: www.thenuherald.com. The newspaper began with the journalism B.A. program last year but needs community support. You are invited to register and participate in polls, message boards and letters to the editor. REGISTERING TAKES ONLY A FEW MOMENTS AND WILL BUILD THE PAPER'S READERSHIP AND ALSO AUTOMATICALLY SEND YOU ANY NEW EDITIONS THE STUDENTS PRODUCE. In the current issue, look for stories on NU Polytechnic, the new concierge services and National City alumni. The lead story includes a video of an address to journalism student by the CONTROVERSIAL San Diego city Attorney Michael Aguirre along with a Google video of the event.
