On Thursday, October 26th, the PSCI Department's Karen Sugar gave a talk as part of the Georgia State University Honors College's Founders Lecture Series! In her lecture, "The Paradox of Empowerment," Sugar used her expertise in social justice, gender studies, and women and family issues to speak on the complexities of human and women's rights. Sugar is the founder and director of the Women's Global Empowerment Fund, which works to provide tools and programs that create economic, social and political empowerment to women and families.
Canvas Outage
Canvas access has been restored for our users, but the service reliability remains uncertain. Due to recent events, Canvas has had intermittent outages which are at the discretion of the vendor and may occur during a final exam. Faculty and staff may continue to use Canvas, but we strongly advise faculty and students to prepare a contingency plan for turning in assignments and final exams in the event Canvas access becomes unavailable again.
Instructure, the company that owns Canvas, has provided an FAQ about the incident, which may not answer all your questions. We will share more information if it becomes available.
