As the newest Residence Hall on Wagner’s campus (Opened in January of 2010), Foundation Hall houses about 200 students who are primarily seniors. In addition to the numerous amenities Foundation offers (see below), Foundation also houses the Bridges Program which helps seniors transition to life after college.
Upcoming Events
March 2024
When Women Ruled the World
Kara Cooney, Professor of Egyptology at UCLA and Chair of the Department of Near Eastern Languages and Cultures, entitled ‘When Women Ruled the World.’
A woman’s power in the ancient world (and perhaps even today) was always compromised from the outset, and this lecture will address the root causes of this social inequality. Given this social reality in the ancient world, how then did women negotiate their limited leadership roles? Were they able to rule “behind the throne” so to speak? How are we to find a woman’s power when it was so habitually cloaked by a man’s dominance? This lecture will address those questions and ask how much of this ancient reality still touches us today.
Lecture will be followed by a reception in Foundation Hall atrium and small exhibit in Horrmann Library featuring the The Archaeology Society of Staten Island archival collection and library gift.
