I am pleased to announce that <a href="https://uwaterloo.ca/arts/events/critical-tech-talk-8-humility-value-engineering-and-design" id="LPlnk189392" title="https://uwaterloo.ca/arts/events/critical-tech-talk-8-humility-value-engineering-and-design" data-auth="NotApplicable" data-loopstyle="linkonly" class="OWAAutoLink">
Critical Tech Talk 8</a> will take place on Friday, March 22 at 4:00 pm in AL 116. The event will feature Professor Kari Zacharias from University of Manitoba in conversation with Dr. Jenny Howcroft and PhD Candidate Naomi Paul, both from Systems Design Engineering.
While the talk is about engineering, it focuses on ritual studies and the colonial context of the Engineering Iron Ring Ceremony, which was written by Rudyard Kipling. There will be much here for Arts people to dig into, and the discussion will provide a restorative
break from the grandstanding of Elon Musk and Sam Altman.</div>
