Celebrating the Work of Our Inaugural Poet Laureate, Jesse Julian!
As the semester draws to a close, we celebrate the upcoming graduation of our inaugural Poet Laureate, Jesse Julian. Since joining the Schiller Institute during her freshman year, Jesse has helped bring our mission of integrating the humanities with the sciences to life. Throughout her four-year tenure, Jesse has authored original poems that capture the Institute鈥檚 research, such as "Homestretch," inspired by interim Seidner Family Executive Director Dunwei Wang鈥檚 sustainability research and ethos, and "Of Laudato Si鈥�," which echoes Pope Francis鈥檚 call for environmental justice. Beyond her own creative writing, Jesse has been a cornerstone of our student newsletter,听The Scoop. Her insightful poetry analysis has explored the work of writers like听Derek Sheffield听and听Amanda Gorman, helping our community see the ecopoetic connections between humanity and the natural world. This spring semester, she also spearheaded two events using poetry as a means to explore our core research areas of energy, environment, and health.听听
