Mentions in the Media
Michelle Obama, Paradox
"Michelle Obama is a genuine paradox," said Darlene Clark Hine, a professor of African American studies and history at Northwestern University. Hine's lecture, part of a black studies conference at the university last week, argued that the first lady is a "transformative, liberationist" figure -- despite her interest in domestic issues and the long list of magazine cover stories focused on topics such as Obama's approach to motherhood or the importance of healthful eating. washingtonpost.com April 16, 2012 Full story
Seismic hazards: Japan earthquake and other tectonic surprises challenge scientific assumptions
"It's almost impossible to make a sensible earthquake hazard map," argues Northwestern University geophysicist Seth Stein.... "We call this the 'whack-a-mole model' of earthquake hazard mapping. The mole will come up the same hole that it went down," Stein said. And that's rarely the case. washingtonpost.com March 9, 2012 Full story
