CISS and CAS Celebrate Recent Faculty Authors at Book Party
CISS faculty affiliates and CAS social science faculty gathered in the CISS conference room on February 16, 2023 to celebrate the recently published books by BU social scientists. Over wine, cheese, and snacks served by Catering on the Charles, the authors and faculty colleagues raised a glass in recognition of the books published in 2021 and 2022. CAS Dean Stan Sclaroff welcomed attendees and congratulated the authors on this career milestone. The event was generously supported by CAS Associate Dean of the Faculty for Social Sciences, Arianne Chernock. Authors graciously donated copies of their books to CISS; guests are invited to peruse these new works in the Center conference room.
