Russian Public Opinion, the War in Ukraine, and the Lingering Effects of the Soviet Collapse
Carol Rifelj Lecture Series
Will will draw on research that he has done over the past half decade on the shorter and longer-term consequences of Russia’s painful exit from communism in the early 1990s. He will give particular attention to public opinion in the past several years, including through the fall of 2025, drawing on his own and others’ survey data to trace the influence of the War in Ukraine on Russians’ life satisfaction, their commitment to democratic values, and their attachment to their country.

Looms, Linen, and Luxury: The Art of Weaving Damask
Join us for a lunch time talk! Carrie Anderson (HARC) will discuss the fascinating history of the College Art Museum’s latest textile acquisition: a seventeenth-century damask linen napkin featuring the coat of arms of Prince Maurits from the House of Nassau, the stadholder of the Dutch Republic from 1585 until his death in 1625. Carrie will be joined by Justin Squizzero, Director of the Newbury School of Weaving, who will explain the complexities of weaving damask, which he produces on his 200-year-old Jacquard Loom.
