On Thursday, August 25th, we will be starting Fall 2016 with an event from Dr. Kelly Greenhill of Tufts and Harvard University.  She’s finishing up a book on the surprising role that “extra-factual information” (EFI) can have on individuals and groups when they are attempting to validate and assess threats—and how that fear can lead to public policy changes.  The speaking event will take place in the Political Science Conference Room at noon.
