SUMMARY:Four Decisions That Matter: The Supreme Court\, Conservatism and Current Controversies 
DESCRIPTION:The Supreme Court is one of the most consequential institutions of government in the United States: its decisions have profound and enduring importance for American life and politics. In this series\, we will explore four of the major cases recently decided by the Court during its last term. We’ll learn about the cases by examining the law and politics behind each case\, the political balance of the Court\, the influence of conservative thought on the current majority\, and the likely consequences for our country in each decision. \nDr. Smailes will be joining us via Zoom. You are welcome to attend remotely\, or in-person at the Library. We’ll have the Zoom meeting set up on a large screen. Please register whether you are attending in person or virtually. \nPresenter: Dr. David Smailes is the the recently retired Program Coordinator and Advisor for the Master of Public Administration program and an Associate Professor in the Political Science Dept. at Framingham State. Areas of specialization include public administration\, political theory\, and American political history. Dr. Smailes has a Ph.D. in Political Science and B.A. from the College of Wooster in Ohio. \nThis Lifelong Learning program has been made possible by the support of the Friends of the Hopkinton Public Library.

SUMMARY:VIRTUAL - A Journey into the Hidden World of Tropical Bats with Scientists from the Smithsonian Trop
DESCRIPTION:Join us in kicking off October as we welcome three Smithsonian-affiliated scientists to teach us about the remarkable world of tropical bats! \nClick HERE to register. \nFor decades\, scientists at the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute have studied the remarkable biodiversity of bats on Barro Colorado Island in Panama\, where an astonishing seventy-six species coexist. Now\, for the first time\, Smithsonian scientists’ expertise pairs with the stunning photography of National Geographic contributor Christian Ziegler for a captivating visual journey into the fascinating world of these elusive night creatures\, to bring you the book Bat Island: A Rare Journey into the Hidden World of Tropical Bats. \nBats are unique among mammals: they have acquired true flight\, they provide essential ecosystem services\, and represent the ecologically most diverse group of mammals worldwide. Synthesizing decades-worth of intensive study\, Drs. Rachel Page\, Dina Dechmann\, Teague O’Mara\, and Marco Tschapka provide authoritative insight alongside 150 photographs that showcase bats’ extraordinary environmental adaptations and rich natural history. \nThis presentation will cover topics from the book\, such as the diverse sensory abilities of bats\, their foraging strategies\, roosting ecologies\, and social systems. Bat Island presents decades of study of the hyper diverse bat population on Barro Colorado Island in addition to the most comprehensive and long-term datasets on tropical bats. The book and this presentation highlights how bats are threatened by habitat fragmentation and land degradation\, and communicate the initiatives needed to ensure the survival of these animals\, which are critical to maintaining healthy\, balanced ecosystems. \nAnd let’s not forget\, the award-winning photojournalist Christian Ziegler’s photography as the images within the book illuminate the unique beauty and allure of bats and the tropical rainforest in Panama. Register now for this rare look into Bat Island!
