About this Event
Add to calendarStop by the last Passion Project event of the year to hear from Professor Jeff Bary.
In his own words, he will; "focus on the events in my life that have led me to several of my lifelong passions. I'll outline my path from being a kid growing up in the coalfields of Central Appalachia to being a professor of physics and astronomy at a small liberal arts college in the Northeast. From looking up at the stars through my grandfather's hunting binoculars in my grandparent's backyard to becoming a regular at The World Famous Station Inn in Nashville as a graduate student at Vanderbilt, such experiences have led me to become an expert on the formation of stars and planetary systems, a founding member of Colgate's Live Music Collective, a long-running DJ on WRCU, and an instructor for a Core Communities course focused on Appalachia. I'll convince you just how naturally these interests fit together".
