SUMMARY:Sunday-Evening-at-the-Museum: "Making the World a Better Place for Birds: Women’s Authorship and Activism in Ornithology\," Dr. Kim Perez
DESCRIPTION:April 21\, 2024 | Dr. Kim Perez will explore the role and impact of pioneering women in birdwatching in the late 19th and early 20th centuries\, focusing on figures like Mabel Osgood Wright and Florence Merian Bailey and their relationship to the burgeoning field of ornithology\, their activism\, and their role as authors. \nDr. Kim Perez fell in love with nature as a child and continued her relationship into adulthood. She received a BS in Wildlife Biology at Kansas State University\, where she worked on Konza Prairie as a research assistant to several graduate students and faculty. She even pursued her own undergraduate research projects and considered pursuing a career in biology. However\, her trajectory changed when she took a History of Science course at the University of Oklahoma and decided it was fascinating to study scientists themselves. After completing an MA and PhD in the History of Science at OU\, she accepted a position in the Department of History at Fort Hays State University\, where she has been for 23 years. Her research interests include women in the field of science\, the nature study movement\, and the boundaries between amateur scientific participation and professionalization. \nThis Sunday-Evening-at-the-Museum program\, as well as Dr. Perez’s Convocation program the following morning at Bethel College\, are underwritten by the Bethel College Women’s Association and the Carolyn Schultz Lectureship fund.

SUMMARY:Sunday-Afternoon-at-the-Museum: "Learning about Climate Change with Online Simulation Software: Agriculture\, Food\, and Equity Issues\," Dr. Dwight Krehbiel\, professor emeritus\, Bethel College
DESCRIPTION:This Sunday-Afternoon-At-The-Museum presentation will provide a rapid overview of a free online tool called En-ROADS to promote learning and thinking about climate change.\nDr. Krehbiel will explore how this tool can be employed to help understand the role of agriculture and of food production and consumption in climate change\, as well as the countless ways in which climate change threatens health and wellbeing\, especially for people who are already poor or in some way marginalized.\nDwight Krehbiel\, emeritus professor of psychology at Bethel College\, developed an interest in climate change modeling over a number of years of teaching a course on computing in science. In early 2020\, he completed a 6-week training course in the use of En-ROADS software for workshops with diverse audiences\, becoming a Climate Ambassador for Climate Interactive\, a non-profit climate think-tank that created En-ROADS. Dwight has been teaching at Bethel for the past 46 years in psychology\, statistics\, and neuroscience.

SUMMARY:Fall Fest Program: “Hidden Connections: The Bethel Bell and Brown vs. Board in the Supreme Court\,” Levi Goossen ’59
DESCRIPTION:The Bethel bell once rang in the only known integrated school in Kansas\, in Prairie Bell School in Thomas County. Later the children from rural Thomas County attended school in Oakley which led to the integration of public schools nationwide by order of the United States Supreme Court case Brown vs. Board of Education. Meanwhile the bell was passed along from the rural school to the Meadow Mennonite church in Mingo to Bethel College. Come learn more about the bell’s unique journey and how physical artifacts play significant roles in retelling stories about the past.
