“Grillin’ with My Grandchild,” a new program by Ohio State University Extension and Hardin County Extension, according to Jami Dellifield of the Hardin County OSU Extension Office.

Ohio Northern University will host a panel discussion concerning the Netflix documentary series “Making a Murderer” in the McIntosh Activities Room on Thursday, Feb. 4, at 7 p.m.
A five-person panel of ONU professors will address student questions about specific events, actions and themes portrayed in the show, and compare them with industry best practices and scientific research. The panel’s goal is not to retry Steven Avery’s case or decide guilt or innocence, but to objectively examine elements of the case presented by the filmmakers.
