Ann Ronald, English Professor, University of Nevada, Reno

Ann Ronald's book, Friendly Fallout 1953, combines factual history of atomic tests in the Nevada desert with fictional vignettes that explore the impact of the tests on the people who participated in them as well as the civilian down winders. Told through the perspectives of military personnel, scientists, ranchers, and others, the stories bring to life a turbulent era when Cold War fears, patriotism, scientific ambition, and popular excitement often collided with the welfare of ordinary citizens and the environment. Ronald evokes the explosions in all their terrifying magnificence and explores the diverse, sometimes conflicting, emotions of a generation that saw atomic energy as its best protection against the horrors of another world war, even to the sacrifice of innocent people, wildlife and livestock.

About Ann Ronald: Ann Ronald grew up in the Pacific Northwest. From the first seminar paper she wrote, her dissertation, the first article she ever published, her first book, her last book and all the articles in between, Ronald’s work has always focused on landscape.

Graduating from Whitman College and then the University of Colorado, she managed to survive away from the West long enough to complete her PhD at Northwestern University in 1970 (she promised herself she would never live east of the Rockies again and she’s kept her vow). Ronald found a job at the University of Nevada, Reno, as soon as she finished graduate school and has worked at UNR ever since, first as an English professor, later as dean of the College of Arts and Science, and now as an English professor again. Ann teaches a variety of British and American literature courses. Partial retirement means she only teaches during the spring semesters, but she regularly offers a graduate seminar in Creative Nature Writing as well as undergraduate courses such as Western American Writers, Major Environmental Texts, Western Women Writers and American Autobiography.

Ann Ronald was named UNR's Outstanding Researcher in 2005. She was elected to the Nevada Writers Hall of Fame in 2006. Despite her active professional career, Ann Ronald has never given up her enthusiasm for landscape and the out-of-doors. She recently backpacked in the High Sierra and hiked hut-to-hut in the White Mountains of New Hampshire. She plans more such high-country trips.

Back by popular demand is this lively reenactment of the famous 1903 meeting of President Theodore Roosevelt and California naturalist, John Muir. Returning to Sierra College for his annual “Muir visit” during Earth Day week, Lee will bring Teddy (Alan Sutterfield) along and perform this popular historical play (written and directed by Lee Stetson).

In May of 1903, President Theodore Roosevelt, planning a tour of the western forests, invited the naturalist John Muir to a four-day camping trip in the Yosemite wilderness. The Tramp and the Roughrider illuminates this extraordinary encounter, with the action unfolding at sunset on Glacier Point, overlooking the magnificent Yosemite Valley. 

Both of these characters were feisty and opinionated, and had sharp disagreements on issues like hunting, animal rights, and forest management. Muir’s poetic and evangelistic temperament, clashing with Roosevelt’s political (and boyish) enthusiasms, naturally spawned both tension and humor. Both skillful storytellers, it seems natural that both would seek to top one another by relating some of their many adventures in the American wildernes. Whether you’re a naturalist, a sports-man, or both, you will be captivated by this passionate performance by Lee Stetson as John Muir and Alan Sutterfield as Theodore Roosevelt.

Tickets are available at the door or send self-addressed stamped envelope and check payable to Sierra College Museum, to Muir Play Tickets c/o Richard Hilton, Sewell Hall, Sierra College, 5000 Rocklin Road, Rocklin, CA  95677

Michael Kane, Associate Dean, Sierra College Science and Mathematics Division and GIS department.

In “Sustainability, Change and the Great Reset,” explore and discuss what it means to be an effective change agent in your organization or community. This presentation by Michael Kane will define what it means to be a change agent, the necessary skill set, and the types of knowledge and actions required to make effective and sustainable change. Examples of how these skills have been employed at other colleges will be given. The talk will focus on how to get past the barriers we all seem to face in making change happen. There will be opportunities to discuss a change that you want to make and the how you can do that with no money, permission or support.

About Michael Kane: Kane has worked on sustainability issues in both the public and private sector for more than twenty years. He has served as the Associate Dean of Sciences and Mathematics at Sierra College for the last six years. Kane holds Bachelors Degrees in Biology and Secondary Education from the State University of New York at Plattsburgh and a Master in Applied Ecology from Eastern Kentucky University.

Dr. David Wright and Joseph Stewart of the California Department of Fish and Game have been peering into rock crevices in the northern Sierra Nevada and beyond to see whether the American pika may be affected by climate change. Arguably the cutest animal in the state, the pika lives at high elevations and is thought to be sensitive to warming. As with a lot of science, their study has been raising many new questions.

A Prehistoric Safari to the American Southwest

Frank L. DeCourten, Professor of Earth Science, Sierra College

This lecture will explore the new discoveries and interpretation that are profoundly changing our views of the dinosaur assemblages that populated in the southwestern North America for more than 180 million years. The non-technical and profusely illustrated presentation will provide descriptions and renderings of recently identified dinosaurs, some of which are completely new to science. The first skeletons were unearthed in western North America in the late 1800s. Since that time, our knowledge of the great prehistoric reptiles has grown dramatically.  Nonetheless, persistent gaps in the fossil record and the imperfect preservation of dinosaur remains has left considerable gaps in our understanding of the community structure, life habits, and patterns of evolution among the dinosaurs that populated the West during Mesozoic times. Beginning in the mid-1980s, a series of dramatic new discoveries were made in Utah and adjacent regions that have transformed our understanding of dinosaurs in the American Southwest and opened new vistas into the vanished world they occupied.
