In the keynote address of the Undergraduate Research Conference, Dr. Greer will unpack "Why Geography Matters" through the lens of her three international research projects involving the Chicago Field Museum, Carnegie Museum of Natural History, and University Colorado, Colorado Springs. Over the last 10 years as a Canada Research Chair, she has been working on a First University partnership centered on practices of repatriation and repair-work through the production of travelling exhibitions, shared online collections, and critical research into museum and archival collections for the repatriation of human remains and sacred objects.

The event is free and open to the public.
