I was fortunate enough to interview Anna Pechenkina, an international relations scholar here at USU who happens to be a native Russian speaker from eastern Ukraine, on my podcast. She is incredibly knowledge and incisive, and I learned a ton from her. You might also find this interesting in light of recent events. We in part consider some of the possible outcomes and ethical questions surrounding the conflict in addition to the history of Ukraine and some of the key figures on both sides of the war.

Mormon Reading Group
I wanted to let people know that the next round of the Mormon reading group would take place on Wednesday after Spring Break (3/16) at 3:30pm. We will meet at the department office in Old Main. We will read pages 28-64 in the book.
Mormon Reading Group
I know that this is short notice but will not come as a huge surprise to you: we are meeting tomorrow for the Mormon Theological Introduction reading group tomorrow at 2:30. We will meet by the Philosophy/Comm Study office. I am looking forward to discussing the Introduction and first three chapters of the book.
Reading Group
This semester, we are reading a theological work on Mormon in the Book of Mormon. It is written by a philosopher, and it’s about the concept of apocalypse, so that’s always fun. If you are interested, here is the link to the book:
We are going to meet next week. I wanted to take a quick poll to see when we could get as many people as are interested in coming. Here are the potential options. I set the options for next week, but the pattern would be to meet once every other week when the philosophy club is not meeting.
Christian Universalism
We have now put out the podcast I did about Christian universalism. Universalism in the Christian context is the belief that eventually everyone will go to Heaven and that no one will be stuck in Hell forever. If this sounds interesting to you, please listen!
