Hello, all, I wanted to bring your attention to Rosalind Williams's very interesting presentation at last week's Inauguration Symposium on "The Future of Education." Roz spoke on "MIT Culture: The Future as Past." You can watch Roz's presentation here:

Many thanks to Roz for representing STS and SHASS so well at this important event. And in case you missed it, Ted Postol was featured in a recent article in the New York Times on US missile defense strategy: http://www.nytimes.com/2012/09/12/science/us-missile-defense-protections-are-called-vulnerable.html Please share with me other items I might have missed -- it's always great to see STS scholars and scholarship making an impact in the world -- best, Dave __________ David Kaiser Germeshausen Professor of the History of Science Department Head, Program in Science, Technology, & Society and Senior Lecturer, Department of Physics Room E51-179 Massachusetts Institute of Technology 77 Massachusetts Avenue Cambridge, MA 02139 USA Tel: 617 253-4062 Fax: 617 258-8118 [email protected] http://web.mit.edu/dikaiser/www
