Frieze Lecture Series with Augustana College

Our annual program partnership with Augustana College looks at the 500th anniversary of Martin Luther's Protestant Reformation movement.  Join us for a series of four fascinating lectures by Augustana College faculty on the legacy of the 1517 movement on intellectual thought, communication, privacy, and the view of science and technology.

Our Nov. 14 lecture features a talk on the The Reformation of Privacy, with Hyeong-Gyu Choi, assistant professor of business administration. For the medieval man or woman, privacy was an unknown concept. How did the Reformation lead to changes in our perception of a right to privacy? How is that perception changing now? This topic dovetails well with Professor Choi's current research interests in the marketing ramifications of social media, consumer media consumption, big data, and marketing analytics.
