No full textAward-winning young adult author Mason Deaver is returning (virtually) to CWU to discuss their new book, The Ghosts We Keep.
This emotional, character-driven journey is about a nonbinary teenager grieving their first shattering loss and, moving forward, allowing that experience to be a guidepost for the relationships that are important to them...An unflinchingly honest story that doesn’t shy away from the complex emotions of grief but also offers a hopeful path forward for Liam and everyone else left behind in the wake of Ethan’s death. ~ Alaina Leary, Booklist

An Agent-Based Spatially Explicit Epidemiological Model in MASON
No full textThis paper outlines the design and implementation of an agent-based epidemiological simulation system. The system was implemented in the MASON toolkit, a set of Java-based agent-simulation libraries. This epidemiological simulation system is robust and extensible for multiple applications, including classroom demonstrations of many types of epidemics and detailed numerical experimentation on a particular disease. The application has been made available as an applet on the MASON web site, and as source code on the author\'s web site.Epidemiology, Social Networks, Agent-Based Simulation, MASON Toolkit
