AAC&U President Lynn Pasquerella is host of the radio segment The Academic Minute, produced by WAMC Northeast Public Radio in partnership with AAC&U. The Academic Minute features faculty and researchers from colleges and universities around the world, discussing what’s new in the academy and the ways in which academic research contributes to serving the public good. In addition to being broadcast widely on radio stations around the country, each segment is posted daily on Inside Higher Ed and across The Academic Minute’s and AAC&U’s social media portals.
The Academic Minute team is seeking submissions for upcoming segments. We are particularly interested in research related to several specific themes:
For Halloween, we plan to explore unexplained historical mysteries such as Jack the Ripper, Oak Island, and others and invite submissions related to this theme.
During election week, we will focus on topics of particular interest during this election season, including political brainwashing, the Electoral College, and political geography and financial accounting. We are seeking additional submissions to complement these scheduled segments.
For Thanksgiving, we are planning to explore gratitude and are seeking research that touches on this topic.
Whether your research focuses on these or other topics, we invite you to submit it for possible inclusion in this daily syndicated segment.
Please send submissions to David Hopper at dhopper@wamc.org. We look forward to hearing from you and appreciate your considering this opportunity for public engagement.
