In celebration of the Forum 2025-26 Annual Theme "Dirt," the Arts & Humanities Forum at the University of Oklahoma presents the third of four Transdisciplinary Research Panels. This panel is entitled "Red Dirt Place-Making: Thinking with Community, Home, and Identity." It features the research of OU Faculty Allyson Shortle (Political Science), Rilla Askew (English), Bryan Bloom (Construction Science), Ken Marold (Architecture), and Kalenda Eaton (African and African American Studies). These panels are designed to gather expertise from across the arts, humanities, social sciences, and STEM. Together, our panelists help us consider the many ways in which Dirt (like the Red Dirt of Oklahoma) is tied to ideas about identity and home.
