I recently joined a stellar interdisciplinary panel for a symposium, organized by the Wayne State University Humanities Center, to talk about Water/Sheds. We from disciplines as disparate as English, Modern Languages, Biological Sciences, Communication, Civil & Environmental Engineering, and Art, and we talked about why we did the research we did on the social-environmental impacts of water and watersheds. We also identified some wonderful intersections across our research interests and perspectives, which will hopefully lead to us forming a Working Group under the Humanities Center to continue to this conversation and broaden it even further across the university.
