Dunning is no ordinary skeptic. And no topic is out of bounds when he
applies his scientific brand of reason and critical thinking to unravel
today’s most popular and accepted assumptions. What really happened to
Amelia Earhart?
In their 1901 visit to Versailles, did two Oxford
teachers actually encounter Marie Antoinette? And do you need to wait
30 minutes after eating for a dip in the pool? Dunning’s award-winning
weekly podcast, Skeptoid: Critical Analysis of Pop Phenomena, tackles
fascinating topics with surprising conclusions.
The event is
free and open to the public and sponsored by the NEC Honors Program, NSM
Collegium, and the INBRE program. For details, contactDr. Sachie Howard
at showard@nec.edu or 603-428-2388.
