John “Mike” Coggeshall, professor, Department of Sociology, Anthropology and Criminal Justice, will speak on Liberia, South Carolina, a community first founded by freed slaves in northern Pickens County at the end of the Civil War. He will be joined by Liberia community leader Mable Clarke. Coggeshall is author of the book, “Liberia, South Carolina: An African American Appalachian Community.”

Friday, February 15
Darren Linvill, associate professor, Department of Communication, and Patrick Warren, associate professor, Department of Economics, will present their research on social media accounts created by Russian agencies to negatively influence election cycles and political discourse.
