The (Mis)information Age

Turning information into a story that you can present and speak to—and have it make sense and be relevant—is something that I really took away from Ursinus.
Stories, weddings and updates from our Ursinus classmates
Professor Scott Deacle passed away on May 5, 2023
Scott—the ever-organized, ice-cream loving business and economics professor—is remembered as an exceptional teacher who always created a special rapport with his students, especially those involved with the investment club, UCIMCO. His service to the college was exemplary—a confident and caring voice of clarity who saw so much potential in the college and in his colleagues and students.

Science, CIE, and a Shared Love of National Treasure
Could one of the keys to an award-winning podcast about the National Treasurefilm series be the Common Intellectual Experience (CIE)? Although one pair of podcasters did not intentionally set out to draw inspiration from Ursinus’s signature class, they can’t deny the influence the course has had on the creation of National Treasure Hunt, a passion project devoted to their favorite films.
