World Events/Ideas

I try to integrate societal and world issues into my research and teaching. The following resources provide me with ideas, give me inspiration, and help me to keep informed about the world.

Online and print news that I read

• New York Times - I read the online version via free email subscription
• BBC News - outstanding place to get international news
• Christian Science Monitor - Excellent newspaper. The Monitor is a real newspaper (not a religious periodical). They're known for independent coverage since they don't rely on wire services like the AP and Reuters.

News-Related Television that I enjoy watching

• C-Span - Yes, I'm a bit of a nerd. But, C-Span is great!
• The NewsHour - Undoubtedly, the best U.S. news program on television.

Podcasts that I sometimes listen to

• Afternoon Magazine on WILL-AM (Illinois Public Media)
• Focus 580 on WILL-AM (Illinois Public Media)
• NPR: Story of the Day
• NPR: Religion Podcast
• State of Affairs on WFPL (Louisville's NPR Station)
• Speaking of Faith - Discussion of "religion, meaning, ethics, and ideas"
• To the Best of our Knowledge from Wisconsin Public Radio
