Join us for the next installment of Humanities @ Home, a panel series partnership between CU Advancement and the Center for Humanities & the Arts!

This virtual Zoom panel, taking place right before Halloween, will feature Alexandra Siegel, assistant professor of political science; Greg Gondwe, PhD student in journalism; and Toby Hopp, associate professor of advertising, public relations and media design.

This event will examine the ways in which conspiracy theories have amplified in recent years, particularly since the 2020 election and throughout the course of the COVID-19 pandemic:  

• Why are conspiracy theories so wildly popular in the age of social media?
• How do these conspiracy theories affect our lives, our media consumption, and our perceptions of our communities?

Join us virtually on Oct. 28 to hear from leading scholars on campus and to get into the spooky mindset for Halloween! This event is free and is open to the public.

Registration is required to attend.
