SUMMARY:Darwin Day with Dr. Matthew Morris
DESCRIPTION:Darwin famously wrote “If it could be demonstrated that any complex organexisted\, which could not possibly have been formed by numerous\, successive\,slight modifications\, my theory would absolutely break down.” This riskyprediction generated two different sorts of debate: the first among biologists ofthe late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries who debated whether Darwin’sclaim was correct – must evolution be gradual? – and the other from present-daycreationists who argue that certain complex traits refute Darwin’s claim. Yet apartial solution to both was already hinted at by Darwin: organismal bodies areflexible. Phenotypes can change under different environmental stimuli\, and thiscan happen rapidly\, dramatically\, and in a coordinated fashion. Dr. Morris willintroduce the concept of phenotypic plasticity\, the capacity of a single genotypeto produce multiple environmentally determined phenotypes\, and suggest thatsome modern critiques of Darwin can be put to rest through an understandingof what Darwin called that “most perplexing subject.”

SUMMARY:Faculty Colloquium Series w/ Dr. Cory Wright-Maley
DESCRIPTION:In this talk Dr. Wright-Maley will discuss how Canadian identity is ever difficult to pin down and even more difficult to teach. One thing most Canadians know forcertain is that we’re not American. Such an assertion has implications for what and how we teach about our country as we seek to differentiate ourselves fromour southern neighbour. This talk pulls together the multidirectional strands that threaten and strengthen Canadian “common knowledge” about themselves inrelation to the United States: the erasure and reclamation of inconvenient national histories\, U.S. sovereignty threats\, and the contested embrace andrejection of toxic populism. Each reveals a dimension of Canadian identity and presents both opportunities and ongoing challenges for teachers trying toarticulate what it means to be Canadian.
