Over the past few years, venues such as bars and
cafes position themselves in the market by offering artists, authors, and now,
scientists and researchers, opportunities to present their work or to just
lecture on a particular topic. How about a concerted effort to take advantage of such venues with a coordinated set of Mills offerings by faculty, staff, and/or students? What would be needed is to build an infrastructure that would act as a sort of agency for linking the Mills side (presenters) with the community side (the venues and programs).
We already have a preliminary efforts at things like encouraging faculty to do media interviews or write op-eds; this could be seen as an expansion of those efforts and a variation on performance outreach mentioned in another post.
