On Dec. 3, Eve Vogel will discuss her recent work in a talk titled “The New Deal vs. Yankee Independence: The Failure of Comprehensive Development on the Connecticut River and its Legacies for River Management.”
Vogel is an assistant professor of geography in the Department of Geosciences. Her research focuses on the human-environmental dynamics and histories of rivers, and she explores the ways that public policy and regulations intersect with ecological processes and social needs.
This lecture is part of CPPA’s fall 2012 Faculty Colloquium series, which consists of informal talks, often about works-in-progress, with presenters providing a significant amount of time for audience discussion and feedback. All talks will be in Thompson 620, from noon to 1 p.m. They are open to the public and brown bag lunches are welcome.
