The symposium is an inter-college event where students openly discuss the topics explored within each college’s respective theme.
Every RC student will give either a Presentation or a Poster - either as a group or as an individual project. Every RC student will also be an audience member.
At Registration, you will receive a name tag with your schedule on it. The Symposium is organized into two, concurrent, sessions: Session I: 1:30 p.m. - 3:00 p.m. & Session II: 3:10 p.m. - 4:40 p.m.
In our Symposium Presentation, we will use the medium of a digital poster to highlight human rights violations at the hands of the United States and the Central Intelligence Agency. Our argument and support is centralized to six countries in the 20th century: China, Vietnam, Germany (East and West), the Soviet Union, Costa Rica, and Guatemala. We will explore how the United States manipulated these countries and how the outcomes of the interventions strengthened American power.
