LINEUP

  • Are robots coming for your job? by Patrick RaulandTechnology has always moved forwards. And our generation has to deal with automation. Some say robots are going to replace us at our jobs and others think it will create new opportunities. We’ll take a look at both sides!
  • Shh, it’s a surpise! by Mary Shirley Mary got a BA in Theatre in 2007, which is why she’s now an anthropolgist extraordinaire at University of Colorado Denver. Make sense yet? Nope! But she is, afterall, “the most anomalous anthropologist you know (probably).” This Nerd Nite alumna wants to bring a little mystery to your evening with a surprise presentation. Will be naughty or nice? Find out! 😉
  • Gerard K O’Neill’s High Frontier by David Groover We’ll explore the life of an unsung physics badass and talk about his plan to save the world by leaving it the heck alone.
