#ucmerced — Public Fediverse posts

Didn't get this 'til just now and unfortunately the first session is over, but one is coming up on February 21. #UCMerced #Merced #Ableism

NABG is hosting Dr. #Berhe, a renowned soil scientist and political ecologist as the closing keynote speaker at #NABG42. Dr. Berhe studies how #soil can combat climate change by storing carbon and reducing emissions. She leads the Office of Science at the U.S. Department of Energy. She also chairs the Earth Sciences and Geology department at #UCMerced.

We celebrated the new philosophy department yesterday at UC Merced with balloons and ice cream…excited about the future of philosophy here! #philosophy #UCMerced

Hard to believe it’s been 20 years since #UCMerced broke ground. Very cool to see plans for the new Medical Education building and to generally be surrounded by so much positivity.

It was really cool to see a packed house for our very first #philosophy and #literature event yesterday afternoon (had to add chairs!), with Robert Pippin providing an excellent lecture on our search for meaning in the arts, with a focus on film. Nigel Hatton, who organized the event, will be part of the new philosophy department at #UCMerced if that gets approved, and will be organizing more events on #LiteratureAndPhilosophy going forward. Stay tuned at https://philosophy.ucmerced.edu/events
