BGU: Getting to Know the Intelligence Community

Are you interested in learning more about the world of intelligence and its impact on national security? Then, don't miss out on the upcoming BGU Series titled "Introduction to the Intelligence Community," featuring Dr. Melissa Graves, an Associate Professor at The Citadel and expert in this field. Dr. Graves' research areas include national security legal issues, the US presidency’s relationship to the intelligence community, and intelligence analysis. In this four-week course, she will cover a wide range of topics, including an introduction to the intelligence community, the four functional areas of intelligence, the history of the Intelligence Community, and global trends for 2040.   All classes will be held from 3:00pm - 4:00pm in Blackmer Hall Lecture 1: Introduction to Intelligence Community (Tuesday, January 23rd) Lecture 2: The four functional areas of intelligence (analysis, collection, covert operations, and counterintelligence) and intelligence cycle.  (Tuesday, January 30rd) Lecture 3:  History of the Intelligence Community. (Wednesday, February 14th) Lecture 4: Global Trends- broadcasting to 2040.   (Wednesday, February 21st)   Lecture series: $100 or $25 per lecture (four lectures in series)  You must be registered to attend.

BGU: Bone Wars: The Great Fossil Feuds of Prehistory

Register to attend Professor Scott Persons, paleontology series on the history of dinosaur hunting and its greatest scientific rivalries! Lecture 1: A New Find: Victorian naturalists uncover the first fossils of giant prehistoric reptiles. These early paleontologists struggle to make sense of what they have found and start to fight amongst themselves for the acclaim that the discoveries bring.  (Wednesday, January 17th) Lecture 2: Cowboys and Dinosaurs : Completion of the transcontinental railroad links East Coast museums and universities with the fossil-rich deserts of the West. Two scientists wage a heated battle over who can name the most species. Spy tactics are employed, quarries are dynamited, and whole skeletons are stolen.     (Wednesday, January 24th) Lecture 3: Claw of the Renaissance: In the badlands of Montana, a new kind of predatory dinosaur is discovered. This animal defies conventional expectations and the classic “good reptile” model. A revolution in dinosaur science erupts.       (Wednesday, January 31st) Lecture 4: Revenge of the Splitters: Just how many species of dinosaurs were there? Paleontologists used to think roughly 10% of all dinosaurs had been discovered. Now, as more and more species are found, many researchers suspect we haven’t even discovered 1% and that many of the species we thought we knew are actually multiple species in disguise.                                                                                     (Wednesday, February 7th) Lecture series: $100 or $25 per lecture (four lectures in series)
