RSCA in Five: Faculty Short Talks foster a spirit of cross-campus collaboration among 91ÁÔÆæ faculty. We invite faculty to present in five minutes with five slides that directly address the featured topic as well as assumptions and/or limitations with methods of determining knowledge about the topic.

Transformation & Rites of Passage: A Multi- disciplinary Exploration

This RSCA in Five will delve into the psychological, physical, social, and cultural dimensions of "transformation" across various disciplines. From stages of psychological development to the role of trauma and healing in shaping individual identity, this event will focus on how humans utilize rites of passage, transmit cultural values, and experience personal growth and social change through transformation.

In person and via livestream Thursday, March 20, 2025 at the Student Union, Meeting Room 1A. Talks are from 11 a.m. to noon, followed by in person lunch.
