Gustavus prof, Notre Dame alum, and Minnesotan. I write about Africa, France, colonialism, migration, and surveillance in the 20th c.
This is the conference happening at my college. It really is exciting!
This isn’t my field. I’m not working on anything even remotely related. I don’t generally read this area.
However, this is the most exciting sounding conference and I would attend in a heartbeat if I could.

I met Melissa Hortman once at a fundraiser in our town about 70 miles southwest of the Twin Cities. Most people live in the metro area and its easy to ignore the rest of the state. But, Melissa came to see us. She was a kind and generous person and a great leader. Thank you. Rest in peace, Melissa.
Speaker Hortman’s life was grounded in caring — for her family, her colleagues, and Minnesota. Six years ago, she expressed it better than we ever could.
