[Folkserv] Margaret Mills returning to OSU!

[Borland, Katherine]

Dear NESA Colleagues,

The big public event for our department this term is the “Diverse Afghanistan” Symposium<https://nesa.osu.edu/events/diverse-afghanistan-symposium>, Monday March 27, 4:00pm-5:30pm, Hagerty 159.  Invited are Omar Sadr, a brilliant young Afghan scholar with unique insights on the problem of pluralism in modern Afghanistan.  His book won the Central Eurasian Studies Society Book Award last fall.  Commenting is our very own Margaret Mills, Professor Emerita of NELC.  Both are Persianists in addition to their expertise concerning on-the-ground complexities of the land.

Before that, we have two excellent events this week:

  1.  Chris Parmenter, Classics<https://nesa.osu.edu/events/short-history-natron>, today 4:00pm, Hagerty 259.
  2.  Michael MacDonald, U Oxford<https://nesa.osu.edu/events/nomads-soldiers-musicians-and-hairdressers>, Friday 5:00pm, Mendenhall 191.

Please consider taking time out of your busy schedules to participate in our department’s intellectual community.
Best wishes, Morgan
