Feb. Lunch and Learn: "Rice Culture in South Carolina, Past and Present"

“Rice Culture in South Carolina, Past and Present"
Presented by Amanda McNulty, Producer/Host of SCETV’s “Making It Grow”

Friday, Feb. 24, Noon-1 p.m.

Rice culture shaped the society and health of freed and enslaved South Carolinians. Today, breeding has brought back the original "Carolina Gold" rice which at one time gave SC the highest per capita income in the world; further crosses have introduced even more choices based on the historic standouts.

The lecture will be held both in person and via Zoom.

Deadline Extended: Culture(s) in Conversation: Environments, Landscapes, and Ecologies 

Environment is a fluid, elastic word. After combing the lengthy list of the many meanings of environment in a trusty Merriam Webster dictionary, one arrives at the French roots of the term: that which surrounds. The Graduate Student Association of the American Culture Studies Program at Bowling Green State University invites scholars to an interdisciplinary symposium focused on exploring the multilayered meanings of the term environment, using the broadest definition of the term as a common ground for meeting and commingling.
