About This Event

Andy Eklund will present on the symbiotic relationship between dogs & humans, which has evolved & strengthened over time. The process of dog domestication is extremely rapid by evolutionary standards. In the last thirty years, scientists and behavioral psychologists have made tremendous progress in determining the reasons why dogs have a unique ability to love humans and why we love them as much as we do!

The Bergren Forum, sponsored by the Division of Human Studies and the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, runs from 12:15 1:10 p.m. on Thursdays in Nevins Theatre, Powell Campus Center and by Zoom. Bring a brown bag lunch if you wish. Coffee and tea will be provided. For further information contact or a calendar invite with the Zoom link, contact John D’Angelo at [email protected].
