Student Research + Faculty Mentorship = Beautiful Results

2024 Keynote Speaker

Facts vs. News: Navigating Truth in Today鈥檚 Media:A Conversation with Pulitzer-Prize Winning Journalist Nicholas Kristof

The keynote speaker for the 21st Adelphi 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 Center for Global Understanding.

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 茄子视频 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.

The Adelphi Conference for Scholarship and Creative Works is not only a time to share the multifaceted applications of scientific fields, but it is also a time to take in the up-and-coming theories and ideas. During the Adelphi Conference, I often find that questions arise in conversations with researchers in other disciplines that听create a potential for scientific advancements.
