The rise of Salons dedicated to cultural and scientific inquiry paralleled the advent of the \; Enlightenment and served as critical incubators for worldwide political and cultural innovation. Moreover\, they afforded a public space in which to exchange ideas and worldviews not invited at the Court.  \;As such\, they played an important function in the rise of alternate political sensibilities such as Republicanism and Socialism\, bolstered the place of women as crucial intellectual players\, and introduced myriad artistic\, literary\, and musical experiments.  \;Plus\, they were fun! \n \; \nThe History Salon seeks to recapture the spirit of inquiry and conversation that animated these meetings.  \;Each salon will feature Macalester professors and students enjoying discussions of our research and study of the past. The History Salon is open to all members of the Macalester community with an abiding interest in exploring the issues that have shaped our world.

This has become more pronounced in recent years as the human poplulation around the ecosystem continues to grow rapidly. Local consumption in the northwest Serengeti alone is estimated to account for approximately 3.7 million meals of bushmeat per year &ndash\; or estimated 43\,000-62\,000 wildebeest deaths per year. Human population growth rates indicate that the human population should double by at least 2035. If the demand for bushmeat remains unchecked\, estimated consumption will continue to increase beyond the already unsustainable levels. \nSponsored by Macalester Development Group (MDG) URL:http://events.macalester.edu/?EventID=10062 DTEND;TZID=US/Central:20091023T130000 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:9715@events.macalester.edu DTSTART;TZID=US/Central:20091023T133000 SUMMARY:Alumni Board Meeting LOCATION:DeWitt Wallace Library\, Macalester College\, StPaul\, MN DTSTAMP:20090910T083921 DESCRIPTION:Harmon Room URL:http://events.macalester.edu/?EventID=9715 DTEND;TZID=US/Central:20091023T153000 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:10065@events.macalester.edu DTSTART;TZID=US/Central:20091023T150000 SUMMARY:Kaffeestunde LOCATION:German House DTSTAMP:20091022T093743 DESCRIPTION:Come and speak German over coffee and delicious cakes. \; All ability levels invited and welcome. \; URL:http://events.macalester.edu/?EventID=10065 DTEND;TZID=US/Central:20091023T170000 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:10046@events.macalester.edu DTSTART;TZID=US/Central:20091023T163000 SUMMARY:Richard Haass on President Obama LOCATION:Olin-Rice Science Center 250\, Macalester College\, StPaul\, MN DTSTAMP:20091020T134149 DESCRIPTION:Now that&rsquo\;s he won the Nobel Peace Prize\, what foreign policy challenges does President Barack Obama still face? \nRichard Haass\, president of the Council on Foreign Relations\, will help answer that question\, when he talks about President Obama'\;s Foreign Policy Challenges.

Wim Wenders\, 1987 "\;There are angels over the streets of Berlin\,"\; quotes the movie poster\, but these are like no angels you'\;ve ever seen. Bundled in dark overcoats\, they watch over the city with ears open to the heartbeat of the human soul. In these astounding scenes we float through the thoughts of dozens of Berlin citizens\, from the weary and worn to the hopeful and young\, as the angels record the magic moments for some heavenly record. But when Damiel \; falls in love with Marion\, he gives up the contemplation and observation of life to experience it himself. Wim Wenders&apos\;s romantic film is a celebration of the transient and fragile moments of being human. Opening with an angel&apos\;s-eye view of Berlin in silvery black and white (delicately captured by the great cinematographer Henri Alekan)\, it transforms into a gauzy color world when Damiel "\;crosses over"\; by sheer will.

Consequently\, his scholarship now explicitly seeks (in ways that historians are sternly cautioned against attempting) to connect his studies of the nation&apos\;s past struggles against enslavement with his direct current actions against human trafficking today. Questions that arise as a consequence of this abrupt shift in focus might include: Am I still truly a scholar or have I forfeited the right to this claim? If I do remain a scholar\, what does publication mean? Who am I writing for and why? Would what I&apos\;d be teaching still be recognizable as history courses? In the humanities particularly\, does the idea of "\;scholarship as deconstructive critique"\; function as an authentic form of activism\, or as a personal surrogate for activism? \; This event is open to all faculty.

Following the screening will be a discussion with Symons and several of the subjects of the film who currently reside in the Twin Cities area. \nAsk Not premiered at San Francisco International Film Festival and aired on PBS&rsquo\; Independent Lens in June 2009. According to the film'\;s website\, "\;[Ask Not] exposes the tangled political battles that led to the discriminatory law and examines the societal shifts that have occurred since its passage in 1993. Current and veteran gay soldiers reveal how '\;don&rsquo\;t ask\, don'\;t tell'\; affects them during their tours of duty\, as they struggle to maintain a double life\, uncertain of whom they can trust. The film also explores how gay veterans and youth organizers are turning to forms of personal activism to overturn the policy.

Davis Lecture Hall\, Ruth Stricker Dayton Campus Center\, Macalester College\, StPaul\, MN DTSTAMP:20090923T134910 DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Christopher Sneddon\, Professor of Political Ecology\, Dartmouth College \nOne of the lasting legacies of Cold War geopolitics\, one that is frequently overlooked by scholars and policymakers\, is that of the global diffusion of large dams\, associated technological knowledge\, and the notion of river basin planning. The primary geopolitical aim of these programs undertaken by the US Department of the Interior&rsquo\;s Bureau of Reclamation (USBR) during the Cold War was straightforward--to contain the spread of communist regimes and ideologies by demonstrating the superiority of Western approaches to governance and economic development--yet the thinking behind and the implementation of this objective represents an enormously complex blend of political calculation\, resource planning\, and transfers of technology and ideology. Through case studies\, Sneddon explores river basin development programs carried out by the USBR in the Middle East (the Litani River basin)\, \; East Africa (the Blue Nile basin)\, and Southeast Asia (the Mekong River basin) as Cold War tensions ebbed and flowed.

When they are rejected\, students and young adults will sit-in at the recruitment office until they are removed. It is a strategy of nonviolent civil disobedience\, and nonviolence is best done when done relentlessly. We want to get enough people so that we can show a presence at a recruitment center every day for at least a month. \nWe will be discussing &ldquo\;Don&rsquo\;t Ask\, Don&rsquo\;t Tell\,&rdquo\; civil disobedience\, and trying to answer any questions regarding the issue. We will also be watching part of Eyes on the Prize: Ain&rsquo\;t Scared of Your Jails\, a documentary about the civil rights movement\, particularly the lunch counter sit-ins. \nCome even if you&rsquo\;re not sure about sitting-in.

Rock hyraxes have a very wide distribution\, living in close colonies of 10 &ndash\; 40 individuals in rocky outcrops throughout much of the southern\, eastern and Sahelian Africa. As an important prey animal with poor thermoregulatory capabilities\, the hyrax spends as much as 95% of its time amongst the protective cover of rocky outcrops and cliffs basking in\, or sheltering from\, the sun.  \;A by-product of their communal habits and the amount of time they spend in or near their shelters\, hyraxes defecate in the same location for many generations. These locations\, often in caves or under rock overhangs\, become covered in faecal pellets\, hair\, and dust\, all of which becomes sealed in accumulations of dried urine\, known as &lsquo\;hyraceum&rsquo\;\, this process can form extensive middens. These middens contain a variety of palaeoenvironmental proxies including microbotanical remains (such as pollen\, phytoliths and charcoal) and stable isotope records which are protected from microbial decay and mechanical disruption by being sealed in hyraceum and can therefore be preserved for many thousands of years. As hyrax middens are deposited in successive layers over time\, it is possible to create stratigraphic proxy records of environmental change. The refinement of sampling techniques have led to the discovery that hyrax middens are very finely laminated\, with recent work generating high resolution records able to explore decadal to millennial scale climate change in southern Africa. \nLynne Quick is currently working on her PhD in Quaternary Science at the University of Cape Town under the supervision of Prof. M.E. Meadows and Dr B.M. Chase. Prior to this\, she was awarded an MSc (with distinction) in Environmental Sciences\, a BSc honours (with distinction) in the same field and a BSc in Environmental and Geographical Science and Ocean and Atmospheric Science from the University of Cape Town. \nRefreshments provided.

Cognitive psychologist Brooke Lea\, a former English major (in recovery)\, and his students use experimental techniques to investigate the role that poetic devices such as alliteration and rhyme play in the comprehension of poetry. The findings support both modern theories of cognition and ancient notions about of the memorial consequences of poetic devices. A second study reveals surprising expert/novice differences. The presenter will discuss methods for getting more poetry in your academic life. \; This event is open to all faculty. Lunch provided. No RSVP necessary.
