Tiny Spaces, Big Ideas

Inspired by NPR’s Tiny Desk concerts, Tiny Spaces, Big Ideas is a YouTube series designed to make scholarly conversations feel accessible, engaging, and a little bit unexpected.

Each episode will feature a guest lecturer from across the college, who will be given only seven minutes to present. The format is structured in three parts: First, the speaker introduces a specific topic or challenge within their field. Then, they offer a new way of thinking about that challenge. Finally, they share a second, alternative approach, essentially giving listeners multiple lenses through which to view a complex issue.
