Some people think the world is wildly unpredictable, and are glad insurance can handle the risk and uncertainty they face. Other people believe their destiny is written in the stars, and consult a daily horoscope to reveal what is in store for them.
Either way, Caley Horan has the history of these things covered.
Horan, an associate professor in MIT’s history program, studies multiple topics related to how we handle uncertainty in modern American life. Her award-winning first book, “Insurance Era,” published in 2021 by the University of Chicago Press, examined a deep tension: Insurance is a collective endeavor in certain respects but is defined in individual terms, at least by the private sector.
“I realized there was a story about insurance in the second half of the 20th century that people hadn’t really written,” Horan says. “It became important to me to tell that story, and to think about both the welfare state and private insurance.”
Currently Horan is in the midst of book project tackling another unwritten story: how astrology became a thoroughly modern, commercialized, and American pastime.
That might seem like quite a departure, but actually, Horan says, her history of astrology grew out of studying insurance history. The connecting tissue is how people themselves view uncertainty, risk, and the future.
“The forms of astrology that evolved in the U.S. over the course of the 20th century turned away from chance, which insurance seeks to cover, and instead offered a theory of causation rooted in external natural phenomena,” Horan says. “The celestial bodies and movements of stars and planets are seen as determining forces, rather than the chance-based world of risk. This creates a clear sense of causation, and of time as cyclical rather than progressing. There’s a real appetite for that.”
In both cases, Horan is uncovering how some familiar aspects of contemporary life have taken their current forms.
“The fact that everything has a history is what drew me to history as a field,” Horan says. “It’s tremendously important to have a sense of the past, and I find it endlessly interesting and exciting.”
For her research and teaching, Horan was granted tenure at MIT last year.
An open field
Horan, who grew up in Colorado, attended Stanford University, where she was a defender on the soccer team while completing a double major in history and feminist studies.
“I settled on history because it seemed like a really open field,” Horan says. “You can study anything historically. If you want to study film, art, or if you want to study insurance or astrology, you can do so as a historian.”
Horan received her BA from Stanford in 2003, then attended graduate school at the University of Minnesota, where she settled on the history of insurance as her dissertation topic and earned her PhD in 2011. She joined the MIT faculty in 2015, while working to turn her thesis into her first book.
In “Insurance Era,” Horan scrutinized high-level political dynamics as the private insurance industry sought to limit the New Deal-era expansion of the public safety net, which it regarded as a threat to its business. Horan also studied this with the lens of a cultural historian, looking at how industry advertising, for instance, portrays the decision to acquire insurance as a highly individualistic endeavor, a matter of personal prudence and savvy.
Ultimately “Insurance Era” received critical acclaim, winning the 2022 Hagley Prize for the best book in business history, and it has just been published in a new paperback edition.
Astrology and the self
At the moment, Horan is researching and writing her history of astrology — or at least the modern American version of the practice. Earlier in America, what might be called “natural astrology” appeared in almanacs with forecasts about things like the best time to plant crops, as “part of an economy that had a very agrarian nature,” Horan says.
But that economy changed, and so did astrology: Going back a bit more than century, astrology became focused on the self, and became a viable business all by itself.
“The astrology that we know today in the United States is very recent,” Horan says. “A lot of what we might today call the therapeutic nature of astrology, which is focused on the self and self-knowledge and self-understanding, is a late 19th-century development. By the 20th century, astrology becomes commercialized and part of a capitalist economy.”
Newspaper horoscope columns, for instance, date to 1930, along with the invention of “sun-sign” astrology, divided by birth dates.
“I think modern astrology has offered people, and continues to offer people, an interpretive framework for understanding identity, self, and relationships to others, at a time when matters of work and identity have been up for grabs,” Horan says.
For her part, Horan’s own sense of identity as a historian is well-established, even as her work evolves: She will continue to pursue topics combining modern business, self-identity, uncertainty, and even health, studying those things in commercial and cultural terms. After she finishes her work on astrology in America, Horan intends to start writing about caregiver work, a growing part of the U.S. economy. And, she says, she continues to follow developments in insurance closely, with a return to that topic possible as well.
“I do feel some of the big-picture issues I have raised about insurance are very relevant,” Horan says. “That includes issues about the power we accord to private industry, how we think about collective organization, how Americans think about data and who controls their data, and how society distributes its resources, including basic insurance coverage. I think we’re heading into uncharted territory with some of these matters, and I do hope some of the questions I’ve raised continue to inform the way scholars are thinking about them.”

Mr. kaconco james successfully defended his phd thesis.
Mr. Kaconco James successfully defended his PhD thesis at a public defense session held at the College of Engineering, Design, Art and Technology (CEDAT).
His thesis was titled; Master Production Scheduling, Total Quality Management and Blood Production Towards Blood Transfusion Sustainability in Uganda.
This study investigated the relationship between master production scheduling, total quality management, blood production, and transfusion sustainability in Ugandan blood banks. It aimed to address the challenges of blood safety and shortages in healthcare, leading to canceled or postponed transfusions and patient fatalities.
The study used was correlational and cross-sectional in nature with a pragmatic paradigm and a mixed-method strategy. It surveyed seven regional and seven university teaching hospital blood banks, using random and purposive sampling. Data came from self-administered questionnaires and interviews with key informants. Data analysis used SPSS20 and AMOS23 to determine relationships among variables. Qualitative data was analyzed using Nvivo software. Pilot tests ensured questionnaire and interview guide validity and reliability.
Findings showed a significant model for the relationship between master production scheduling and blood transfusion sustainability. Demand and supply significantly related to transfusion sustainability, while perishability had a positive but not significant relationship. Surprisingly, total quality management did not mediate the master production scheduling-blood transfusion sustainability link; instead, blood production fully mediated it. When considering both total quality management and blood production as serial mediators, both played a partial mediating role. Qualitative findings aligned with these results, highlighting various strategies used by Ugandan blood banks to enhance sustainability.
This study has managerial implications, emphasizing the importance of factors such as blood demand, staff involvement, continuous improvement, customer-centric approaches, and efficient bloodstock management in enhancing transfusion sustainability. Recommendations for policymakers include establishing a fund to support blood banks for knowledge dissemination and capacity development. They should also enhance annual evaluation, recognition, and awards for blood donors, individuals, and partners dedicated to transfusion sustainability. Establishing a dedicated unit under UBTS for compliance monitoring is recommended. Blood bank managers should invest in staff training, seek expert consultation on transfusion sustainability, and recognize and reward employees and teams demonstrating a strong commitment to transfusion sustainability.
Incoming graduate students in the School of Engineering have been urged to work towards timely completion of the two-year program by adhering to the provisions contained in the graduate handbook. Students were further encouraged to attend the lectures, undertake all assignments and ensure that set deadlines are met.
The Deputy Principal CEDAT, Assoc. Prof. Kizito Maria Kasule presided over the meeting where the students were congratulated upon getting enrolled through a very competitive process. In his remarks, the Deputy Principal encouraged the students to work towards gaining skills that would enable them get self- employed. He cautioned them against engaging in any form of malpractice which he said was not only punishable but could lead to dismissal and cancellation of the academic papers. Kizito further cautioned them against the vice of sexual harassment among students and staff.
During the orientation meeting held on Wednesday 14 th August 2024, the Dean of the School of Engineering, Dr. Dorothy Okello informed the incoming students that the competition for the limited slots of graduate studies was on the rise each passing year, and advised them to utilize the opportunity before them by taking their studies with the seriousness it deserves in order to complete timely. She said it was only 40% of the applicants that were admitted, and therefore the college had high expectations from them as the best of all the applicants. She encouraged them to join research groups, look out for opportunities like student exchange programs involving international collaboration in order to expand their horizons.
The graduate students were reminded that by virtue of enrolling on a masters’ programs, graduate students were researchers and that they needed to start thinking of designing software and prototypes. For them to progress, they were encouraged to cultivate the right mindset and attitude, utilize all the available sources of knowledge as one of the ways through which they were to undertake research and complete their program timely.
Other staff that addressed the students included, the Head of Department, Electrical and Computer engineering, Dr. Abubaker Matovu Wasswa, the Head of the Civil and Environmental Engineering Department, Dr. Robinah Kulabako, the Head of the Mechanical Engineering Department, Dr. Peter Olupot, Dr. Edmund Mugumya, Prof Lating, and the School Registrar.

Makerere University signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the East African Crude Oil Pipeline (EACOP) Ltd to create a platform for finalist and recently graduated students to undertake internships and industrial training with EACOP. The pact provides a framework that will guide the collaboration between the two entities.
The Vice-Chancellor, Prof. Barnabas Nawangwe signed on behalf of Makerere University while Martin Tiffen, the MD signed on behalf of EACOP at a ceremony held at Makerere University on Tuesday 16 th July 2024. The MoU details the two main areas of collaboration in capacity building including internships or graduate training and the trainer of trainers.
In his remarks, Prof. Nawangwe commended the initiative which he said will benefit several students from the College of Engineering, Design, Art and Technology (CEDAT) and the College of Natural Sciences (CoNAS) where programs related to the oil and gas industry are offered. He noted that oil and gas was still a young industry in Uganda and therefore the collaboration was timely.
Prof. Moses Musinguzi, the Principal CEDAT said the college was ready to collaborate with EACOP based on the fact that it is home to several programs in addition to the traditional engineering courses offered. He said all professionals have something to input into the oil pipeline and therefore the college was ready to offer the necessary support in ensuring that the MoU is actualized.
Dr. Peter Olupot, the Head of the Mechanical Engineering Department who spoke on behalf of the Dean School of Engineering said the school offers a range of programs relevant to the oil and gas industry in addition to the petroleum and geoscience subjects offered in the College of Natural Sciences. He said the School of Engineering was moving towards problem-based learning and competence-based assessment and therefore values the industry-academia relationships which will further the ongoing efforts towards producing graduates relevant to the industry.
The East African Crude Oil Pipeline (EACOP) Ltd. is a project company set up to develop, build, and operate a pipeline system that will transport crude oil from the inlet flange at Kabaale in Uganda to the port of Tanga in Tanzania.
A team of staff of Northeastern University comprised of J.J. Kappa, Khalid I. Koddi, and Swaby Meisha paid a courtesy call on the Principal of the College of Engineering, Design, Art and Technology (CEDAT) while on a mission to lay strategies for the forthcoming study abroad program.
Over twenty students from Northeastern University will next summer come to the Margret Trowel School of Industrial and Fine Art for a period of three weeks. While here, students will take on two courses identified by the faculty, engage with the local community to get the cultural experience and visit the cultural sites such as the museum and Nagenda International Academy of Art and Design (NIAD) among other areas.
While receiving the team, the Principal, Prof. Moses Musinguzi gave a brief background to the College of Engineering, Design, Art and Technology (CEDAT) as one of the ten Colleges making up Makerere University , as well as MTSIFA as one of the Schools making up the College.
