The #nanoGochgroup had a great time at @ResearchAtHope today.

Today was the 22nd annual Celebration of Undergraduate Research and Creative Activity (CURCA) at Hope College. The event featured 151 presentations by 268 students and 78 faculty mentors this year. We are proud of all of the students who have worked so hard on their research!

My thanks to Hope College for their release on my wee book to be published next Tuesday. More than any other, this one was fun to write...and hopefully will be to read.😊hope.edu/news/2022/acad…

Left @HopeCollege today inspired after speaking with students and faculty about constructive debate, the pressures of social media, tolerance of opposing views, freedom of expression, Shirley Jackson’s “The Lottery,” and René Girard’s notion of mimetic desire and the scapegoat 🙏🏽
