My Charming Mademoiselle from Act II of The Consul by Gian Carlo Menotti
"These students from Opera Workshop class in the music department will demonstrate their knowledge of classical vocal techniques, stage acting and modern music through the live performance of a scene from the opera The Consul by Gian Carlo Menotti."

Dennis J Clark, Political Science major

Machiavellian Faith and Foundings 
"The founding of a regime—one wholly new—represents the birth of new modes and orders under one who has risen from private citizen to prince. Niccolò Machiavelli discusses such foundings in chapter six of The Prince; he examines the actions and character of those who found new principalities at the highest level, those to whom he refers as “prophets”1: Moses, Cyrus, Romulus, and Theseus. I intend to outline how these princes are similar and where they differ in their actions, and what those  similarities and differences reveal about what Machiavelli believes can be learned from the example of these men."

Sabrina Maristela, Political Science, Spanish, & Philosophy major

Machiavellian Faith and Foundings 
"John Milton’s Paradise Lost is an epic poem published in 1667 and revised in 1674 that explicates the “Fortunate Fall” of man...I examine a scene in Pandemonium in Book X after Eve’s temptation and man’s punishment to reveal the just nature of divine punishment and identify that the distinction between Hellish and Earthly punishments is a result of God’s omni-benevolence."

Jacquelyn Dambrosio, History & Political Science major

Aristotle and Machiavelli on Fortune as a Means to Happiness
"In my presentation, I will be comparing and contrasting Book One of Aristotle’s Nicomachean Ethics with chapter twenty-five of Machiavelli’s The Prince. I will be elaborating on their views of the importance of fortune in achieving the highest human goal."
