The Institute for the Study of Religion, Economics, and Society (IRES) Welcomes Romain Wacziarg
Join us as Romain discusses his paper, "Latent Polarization"
Abstract: We develop a new method to endogenously partition society into groups based on homophily in values, using fractional hedonic games as a theoretical foundation. The between-group differentiation that results from this partition provides a novel measure of latent polarization in society. We implement this method empirically using U.S. data from the World Values Survey. For the last forty years, the degree of latent polarization of the U.S. public has been high and relatively stable. In contrast, the degree of values polarization between voters of the two main political parties has steadily increased since the 1990s, and is now converging toward that of underlying values-based clusters. Thus, growing partisan polarization in the U.S. is a reflection of partisan views becoming increasingly aligned with the main values-based clusters in society.

Science on Tap: Edible Insects
Monday, October 13, 6-7 p.m. at Chapman Crafted Beer (123 N Cypress St, Orange, CA),
Ever feel weirded out by the idea of eating bugs? You're not alone, but it might be time to reconsider. Join postdoctoral fellow Dr. Cassandra Maya for an eye-opening (and mouth-watering!) journey into the world of edible insects. We’ll explore how emotions like fear and disgust shape our food choices, and the surprising nutritional and environmental benefits of insect-based proteins that make them a serious contender for the future of food. Along the way, you’ll hear what researchers are learning about overcoming the “ick” factor, and maybe even challenge your own taste buds with a sample or two.
CHAPMANU SCIENCE ON TAP is a series of casual moderated discussions featuring experts who explore the intersection of science and culture. Science on Tap is for any and every science enthusiast in the community. All ages are welcome. Beer is available for purchase for those 21+. Remember: Great questions get you a free beer!

Skylar Haskard – WE BLUE IT! Campus Celebration
Skylar Haskard – WE BLUE IT!Guggenheim Gallery, Chapman University,
October 15 – November 22, 2025,
Skylar Haskard’s exhibition WE BLUE IT! stages precarious monuments and improvisational approximations to histories of storytelling, building a bridge from Greco-Roman friezes to American cartoons. Centered on plaster-cast and mannequin reliefs mounted on upended trampolines, the works fuse the pictorial with the sculptural, carrying forward Haskard’s engagement with makeshift materials. Here, the trampoline becomes wall, portal, and stage at once: an unstable architecture that holds figural fragments like embroidery on canvas.
These recent works, the most pictorial of Haskard’s to date, echo antiquity’s depictions of mythic scenes and recall half-beast, half-human figures from Roman Gigantomachy friezes. Abstracted and re-imagined using exaggerated features, dentures, dog snouts resembling Disney’s Goofy, and turn-of-the-century laborers carrying shovels, rakes, bones, and found objects.
The image of…

We’ll be watching and discussing Mel Gibson’s Apocalypto (2006). Based on an original screenplay co-written by Farhad Safinia and Mel Gibson (who produced and directed the film), Apocalypto is set in the Yucatán around the year 1511. The film depicts the epic ordeal of a young man named Jaguar Paw, a late Mesoamerican hunter, and his fellow tribesmen, who are captured by an invading force during a raid on their village. They are brought on a perilous journey to a Mayan city for human sacrifice at a time when the Maya civilization is in decline. The film is notable for its casting (all of the actors are Indigenous and Mexican) and for the fact that all dialogue is in a modern approximation of the ancient language of the setting, and the Indigenous Yucatec Mayan Language is spoken with subtitles. Apocalypto was nominated for Best Foreign Language Film…

Complexions Contemporary Ballet
Led by dance icons Dwight Rhoden and Desmond Richardson, Complexions Contemporary Ballet has awakened audiences to a new, exciting genre with their singular approach to contemporary ballet. Armed with a rich Alvin Ailey lineage and a cadre of 16 stunning dancers, Complexions has been hailed as a “matchless American dance company” by the Philadelphia Inquirer and “game changing” by London’s The Guardian. The program opens with favorites from Retro-Suite, a series of short works celebrating 30 years as a company, and finishes with LOVE ROCKS, set to music by the iconic Grammy Award-winning singer and songwriter, Lenny Kravitz. It is an ode to love, humanity, diversity, and an invitation for us to come together.

Skylar Haskard – WE BLUE IT! Opening Reception
Skylar Haskard – WE BLUE IT!Guggenheim Gallery, Chapman University,
October 15 – November 22, 2025,
Skylar Haskard’s exhibition WE BLUE IT! stages precarious monuments and improvisational approximations to histories of storytelling, building a bridge from Greco-Roman friezes to American cartoons. Centered on plaster-cast and mannequin reliefs mounted on upended trampolines, the works fuse the pictorial with the sculptural, carrying forward Haskard’s engagement with makeshift materials. Here, the trampoline becomes wall, portal, and stage at once: an unstable architecture that holds figural fragments like embroidery on canvas.
These recent works, the most pictorial of Haskard’s to date, echo antiquity’s depictions of mythic scenes and recall half-beast, half-human figures from Roman Gigantomachy friezes. Abstracted and re-imagined using exaggerated features, dentures, dog snouts resembling Disney’s Goofy, and turn-of-the-century laborers carrying shovels, rakes, bones, and found objects.
The image of…

"CAN 'BAD' NORMS PERSIST?"
Abstract: Social norms are unwritten rules that guide human behavior and social interaction. They play a central role in promoting cooperation and maintaining cultural diversity. Yet because social norms pressure people to do what others do, “bad” norms may also persist. In this talk, I present insights from a mathematical model and a field study that together examine whether and how “bad” norms can persist. The model challenges the idea that arbitrary or harmful norms can be maintained solely by social pressure. It shows that norms with continuously varying behavioral options cannot be maintained at ecologically or psychologically suboptimal equilibria, suggesting that norms adapt more readily than previously assumed. The field study, conducted among the Derung people (small-scale horticulturalists in Yunnan, China) finds that they continue to follow a co-farming harvest division norm…

SCREENING OF AWARD-WINNING DOCUMENTARY, The Commandant’s Shadow, Zoom Discussion Following Screening with Director Daniela Völker, Moderated by Professor Vikki Katz, Professor of Communication Studies, Fletcher Jones Foundation Endowed Chair in Free Speech and Executive Director of the Or Initiative,
Honored with the 2024 Yad Vashem Documentary Award, The Commandant’s Shadow follows 87-year-old Hans Jürgen Höss, son of Rudolf Höss, the commandant of Auschwitz, as he faces his father’s terrible legacy.

At the heart of this thought-provoking documentary is the meeting between Höss and Lasker-Wallfisch, along with their children, Kai Höss and Maya Lasker-Wallfisch.

Department of Psychology Guest Speakers
The Department of Psychology is excited to welcome our October guest speaker, Dr. Kenny Easwaran.
Dr. Easwaran will be presenting his talk: Puzzles: Epistemology as Art.
Abstract: Philosophers have long assumed that the concept of "knowledge" follows a nice logic, but in recent decades, Timothy Williamson has argued that there are important limits to this logic. He argues that not only does this logic generally fail, but there is no restricted domain that forms a "cognitive home" in which it holds. I argue that puzzles (jigsaws, crosswords, sudokus, etc.) form such a "cognitive home". The philosopher Thi Nguyen has recently argued that games are an art form whose medium is the agency of the player. I build on his proposal to argue that puzzles are an art form whose medium is the player's knowledge. I argue that we can use the strategies of puzzle constructors to better understand when Williamson's limitative theses do and don't apply.
