To learn more about NPHC, fill out the intent to join form.  The National Pan-Hellenic Council (NPHC) is an umbrella organization for nine historically black, inter/national Greek-lettered organizations that evolved during a period when African-Americans were being denied essential rights and privileges afforded to other college students. Today, the primary purpose and focus of member organizations remains community awareness and action through educational, economic, and cultural service activities. The individual member is also expected to align with a graduate and/or alumni chapter, following graduation from college to perpetuate the purpose of the council and their individual organizations.

Expanding Boundaries Speakers Series - Nobel Laureates: Contributions by Astronomers

Thu, Sep 19, 2024 7:30pm to 8:30pm

Life Sciences Building, 112

Stream Available

Free
Join us in the Planetarium for a public talk titled Nobel Laureates: Contributions by Astronomers. This talk will be presented by Andy Layden, chair and professor, BGSU Department of Physics and Astronomy. Nobel Prizes in Physics highlight research and discoveries that have had a large impact on our understanding of the physical world. Yet many important discoveries go without notable prizes. One such case is that of Henrietta Swan Leavitt, an astronomer working at Harvard during the early 20th Century and subject of the play "Silent Sky," to be produced by BGSU's Department of Theater and Film this Nov. I will review many of the Nobel Prizes that impacted her field of Astronomy, and to place Leavitt's discoveries into that historical context, thereby giving the listener one view of Expanding Boundaries over the past century. This program is the first talk in a series of six sessions on a wide range of interdisciplinary topics, each with a connection to astronomy. Programs in the series will be every other Thursday throughout the semester and will follow the regularly scheduled 6:30 p.m. Planetarium show. All Expanding Boundaries Speakers Series events are free and open to the public.  This talk will also be available to livestream via Zoom.
