Confluence: Humanities in the Public Sphere
Welcome to Confluence: Humanities in the Public Sphere, a podcast sponsored by the Institute for Advanced Studies in the Humanities (IASH) at SUNY's Binghamton University. This podcast reflects a belief that scholarly work inevitably benefits from engagement with publics beyond university walls. In each episode, we explore projects by Binghamton University faculty and graduate students that seek to inform--and learn from--diverse publics in a variety of ways.
