SAAM Issues and Collaborative Publication Project: presented by Kurt Burch (faculty in Political Science) and Normandale students.


This colloquium directly and indirectly addresses issues related to Sexual Assault Awareness Month, the Boston Marathon bombings and subsequent manhunt, and activism. 
Students in Intro to World Politics will present research.  One topic is “Women’s Rights, Women’s Inequalities”.  The students will explore physical and institutional forms of violence against women around the world. 
A second topic asks “Which countries are best?”  This group compiled data on countries according to varied criteria, including security, crime rates, and protections of civil liberties. 
Both groups will field your questions.  Feel free to ask them to apply their insights to contemporary or current concerns.
