WAMC/Northeast Public Radio in Albany will feature a reading by Professor of Anthropology Emeritus Douglas Raybeck on Thursday, Sept. 16, as part of the public radio station’s Academic Minute. The new program airs each weekday at 7:37 a.m. and 3:56 p.m. on 90.3 FM in the Clinton area.

According to WAMC’s website, the Academic Minute program “features professors from top institutions around the country, delving into topics from the serious to the light-hearted, keeping listeners abreast of what’s new and exciting in the academy with topics ranging from updates on groundbreaking scientific research to an explanation of how the board game Monopoly can help explain the economic recession.” WAMC is a regional public radio network serving parts of seven northeastern states. These include New York, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Vermont, New Jersey, New Hampshire and Pennsylvania.

Raybeck’s topic addresses how the development of culture is paralleled by the development of increasingly refined means to anticipate the future.

The next Hamilton professor to be heard on this WAMC program is Professor of Government and Director of the Public Policy Program P. Gary Wyckoff on Oct. 7.

Among the other colleges and universities that have participated in this program are Williams, Amherst, Middlebury, Mt. Holyoke, Columbia, Brown, Skidmore, Duke, Rensselaer and Vassar.
