NCSE's executive director Eugenie C. Scott recently spoke on "The evolution of creationism" as the Samuel Newton Taylor endowed lecture at Goucher College in Baltimore. In her talk, she discussed common misunderstandings of evolution, the historical development of antievolutionism, and the current state of the creationism/evolution controversy. In the light of the verdict in Kitzmiller v. Dover, she also offered her predictions for the future of the "intelligent design" movement.

Here at NCSE, we've just updated our list of available speakers, which now includes our newest staff members, Faith Project Director Peter M. J. Hess and Education Project Director Louise S. Mead, as well as three members of our board of directors, Barbara Forrest, Kevin Padian, and Andrew J. Petto.
