Pop Culture Club: Classic Children’s Literature

This group revisits three classic children’s novels: The Secret Garden, Pippi Longstocking, and The Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler. We’ll talk about how these books represent childhood, how nostalgia structures our current engagement with them, and what broader philosophical ideas arise from reading these books as adults. Whether it’s your first time reading or you have your own battered copies under your pillow, you’ll be welcome!

Wednesdays at 4:30 p.m., Myrin Library Basement.
First Meeting is September 4th.

Pop Culture Club: Taylor Swift (Ursinus’s Version)

Your weekly dose of stimulating discussion about Taylor Swift’s music, lyrics, and cultural mythology. Each week will focus on folklore, evermore, Midnights, and The Tortured Poets Department in the context of broader philosophical questions concerning emotional sincerity, taste, femininity, authenticity, and authorship. Swifties and non-Swifties are welcome!

Thursdays at 4:30 pm, IDC 114.
First Meeting is September 5th.

Pop Culture Club: Sci-Fi Television Firefly

Come enjoy the sci-fi-western classic, Firefly, whose single season was much too short. Starting from the beginning, we will watch an episode a week together (popcorn provided!) and then discuss those aspects of the show that catch out fancy, from plot to debates on our favorite character to any relationships to other sci-fi stories, and anything else that may catch our fancy.

Thursdays at 4:30 pm, Olin 107.
First Meeting is September 5th.
