Aggie Agora Podcast on the War in Ukraine

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.

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.
