This symposium features alumni of the Visual Studies program and former TAs of the 101 class. 
It is a chance to stop and reflect on the riches that the interdisciplinarity of the Visual Studies program offers to thinking in the arts, history, philosophy and the sciences through the example of one of the founders of our program, Gary Hatfield.
