College Lecture on the Whedonverse
You know that you have made an impact on society and culture when colleges and universities have classes which teach students who you are and the work you have done. That is the position that Joss Whedon now finds himself in.
The Flagler College Community Lecture Series on Feb. 16 will feature Tamara Wilson, associate professor of English at Flagler College, “Welcome to the Whedonverse: The Past, Present and Future of Whedon Studies from Buffy the Vampire Slayer to Dollhouse.” Original article here.
