Winthrop's first Interdisciplinary Conference will take place on November 6-7, 2015. The conference focuses on the uses, politics, art, history, and economics of water worldwide. It is open to faculty, graduate students, undergraduate students, activists, and community professionals. Over twenty university departments and programs are working together to sponsor this conference and we are so excited to collaborate with the Winthrop University Galleries that will showcase two exhibits dedicated to the Water Conference theme.
