This spring, two lectures will take place as a result of collaboration between CSEES and Howard University. On Tuesday, March 25th, Michael Furman (OSU Slavic Department) gave a lecture prepared by himself and Robert Mulcahy (OSU Slavic Department) on Vladimir Putin via webinar to a Russian culture class at Howard University. A second lecture by Ceilidh Orr (OSU Slavic Department) on the subject of post-Soviet women writiers will take place on April 16th.

These lectures are part of CSEES' mission to further expand its outreach activities across the Midwest and United States.
