The Dons, now in their 28th year, are a cross-disciplinary gathering of faculty who share scholarly interests or works in progress in a non-specialized way with academics from accounting to zoology. One hope is to make our large campus smaller and its collegiality stronger. You’re welcome to attend any or all of the spring talks listed below, and welcome to volunteer to give a talk yourself. Every Towson professor is a member of the Dons.
All meetings this semester begin at 4:00pm on the following Thursdays at the University Club in the Towson University Marriott Conference Hotel where a happy hour bar combines bracing spirits with spirited talk.
April 20 – Lana Portolano, English – “Deaf Catholics Breaking Silence in Church History from Paris to Phnom Penh” (sabbatical presentation)
May 11 – Randolph Wheeler, Philosophy – “The Trouble with Twitter: Accounts without Accountability”
