Myths and Facts: The Reality of Immigration in Indiana and Beyond - Dr. Emily Wornell, Ball State University2019-09-19T18:00:00She will share state and county-level data about immigrants and assimilation in Indiana and engage audience members in a discussion about the changes they’re observing in their communities.
Dr. Emily Wornell is a research assistant professor in the Indiana Communities Institute at Ball State University working with the Center for Business and Economic Research (CBER) and the Rural Policy Research Institute (RUPRI) Center for State Policy. As a rural sociologist and demographer, her areas of specialization are inequality and population change in rural communities. Within that, she is interested in immigration and assimilation, the effect of automation-related job loss on families and communities and household livelihood strategies–or the ways that households make ends meet– in rural communities in the Midwest and around the country. Co-sponsored with Casa Amiga, Hanover College Political Science Department and Latinx Student Union.

An Evening of Cordial Politics2019-09-24T18:00:00Presenter Mike Walro asks, “Is divisive political discourse getting you down? If so, why not try to discuss important issues without rancor. A third “Evening of Cordial Politics” will be held Tuesday, September 24, 2019 at 6:00 p.m. The topic will be “Climate Change,” a sure-fire issue to ignite cordial (hopefully) conversation. The rules will stay the same: 1) bring a joke to start things off, the cornier the better; 2) be prepared to answer some questions like what am I afraid of and why, what are my hopes and how do we to get from here to there; and 3) be polite – no sarcasm, no name calling, no anger. We’ll just be a bunch of friends getting together to discuss what’s important. Hope to see you there."
