Seminar Series 2024: Duncan Agnew

IGPP is pleased to invite you to join its Winter 2024 Seminar Series presentation featuring Duncan Agnew. Dr. Agnew's talk, "Some Early History of IGPP: Organization, Vision, Building, Science" will occur at 3pm WEDNESDAY February 7, 2024. 

Time: 3:00 pm, Pacific Time
Location: Revelle Conference Room

Abstract: Why is IGPP an Institute? Who created it and why? Why is the Munk building where it is, and how did it come to have perpendicular hallways on different floors? This talk will offer an informal history of IGPP's early years (up to about 1970), starting with our roots in Bergen and Cambridge, and complete with missed opportunities, university politics, and archaic computer systems.
