2024 Keynote Speaker
Facts vs. News: Navigating Truth in Today鈥檚 Media:听A Conversation with Pulitzer-Prize Winning Journalist Nicholas Kristof
The keynote speaker for the 21st 成人影片 Conference for Scholarship and Creative Works is American journalist and winner of two Pulitzer Prizes, Nicholas Kristof. Mr. Kristof is also a political commentator, a regular CNN contributor, and an op-ed columnist for The New York Times. According to The Washington Post, Mr. Kristof “rewrote opinion journalism” with his emphasis on human rights abuses and social injustices, such as human trafficking and the Darfur conflict. Archbishop Desmond Tutu of South Africa described Mr. Kristof as an 鈥渉onorary African鈥 for shining a spotlight on neglected conflicts in the continent.
This conversation is sponsored by the Bhis茅 Global Understanding Project.

A Celebration of Scholarship and Creativity
One day each spring, we come together as a community to celebrate student scholarship and creativity during the annual 成人影片 University Scholarship and Creative Works Conference. Students get to share their hard work with their peers, faculty members and visitors. In the process, they build presentation and communication skills, learn to defend their work and engage with other academics, and, overall, develop an appreciation for scholarship and what it contributes to society. At the end of the day, we join our inspiring keynote speaker鈥檚 lecture and celebrate with our entire research community.
