“American Conspiracy Theories”Wendy Scattergood, Assistant Professor of Political ScienceMiriam B. & James J. Mulva Library 218In this short talk and discussion, we will address the following questions: Why do people believe conspiracy theories? Are some more prone to belief than others? Has belief in conspiracy theories grown over time? Does belief in conspiracies lead to violence? How are conspiracy theories affecting current political discourse?

SESSION 3 1-1:45 p.m.

“Economic Strategies Megachurches Have Employed to Achieve Rapid Growth”Marc von der Ruhr, Professor of EconomicsCofrin Hall 207Megachurches are thriving in religious markets at a time when Americans are asserting their ability as consumers of religious products to engage in

religious switching. This presentation discusses how megachurches employ a signaling model to indicate a match between what the church offers and the needs of religious refugees. The model illustrates that megachurches expect very little financial or time commitment from new attendees, but once a good fit is perceived, the expectations increase. Survey data provide evidence in support of the model’s predictions.

“The Science of a Happy Marriage”Carol Bruess, Resident Scholar of the Cassandra Voss CenterMiriam B. & James J. Mulva Library 218

Can social scientists really predict which couples will divorce with 90 percent certainty by examining a handful of communication behaviors? Can we really know how many illnesses a woman will have over a four-year period just by counting the number of nasty facial expressions made by her husband? Yes and yes – and there’s more research to be explored! In this session, Bruess (a marriage communications expert and spouse of St. Norbert’s president, Brian Bruess) will share both the science of happy marriages and tips to make your marriage significantly better with a few small tweaks. Come ready to take notes and leave with marriage-boosting homework!

“Fun With Physics”Erik Brekke, Associate Professor of PhysicsGehl-Mulva Science Center L052Physics can help us understand motion, electricity, sound and much more.

“Meaningfulness in Life”Sydney Keough, Assistant Professor of PhilosophyMiriam B. & James J. Mulva Library 218

In this session, we’ll survey two accounts of what makes life meaningful from contemporary philosophers Richard Taylor and Susan Wolf. Taylor’s account focuses on personal fulfillment as the criterion. Wolf offers a hybrid account in which a life is only meaningful if one’s central projects are both personally fulfilling and objectively significant.

“Dante’s ‘Divine Comedy’”Stephen Westergan, Continuing Part-Time Instructor of HumanitiesCofrin Hall 207

The “Divine Comedy” by Dante Alighieri is one of the greatest works of literature ever written. It unfolds the author’s vision of hell, purgatory and heaven, all of which he insists he visited. We’ll look at a few of his descriptions and consider what they have to say – not just about life after death, but about our lives right now.
