Mathis Art Gallery (3/14-5/17) DESCRIPTION:The One-Off Print: Monotypes from the UWM Art Collection \nThe monotype is a hybrid printmaking process in which ink is transferred from a flat matrix or printing plate onto a sheet of paper. In other words\, the monotype is a print form without a permanent matrix: it can only be printed once. The One-Off Print\, curated by Art History MA student Emma Erickson\, features monotypes from the UWM Art Collection produced by postwar American artists\, a time when experimental printmaking was on the rise. The exhibition highlights the versatility of the monotype\, a medium that bridges the disciplines of painting\, drawing\, and printmaking. \nWhat Is A Print? \nPrints – images made through a process of transferring ink from one surface to another – have for two millennia been rich sources of expressive exploration and crucial to the global circulation of images. Until the late-twentieth century\, most people experienced visual art primarily through prints. What Is A Print? surveys some of the major print processes represented in the UWM Art Collection\, including seminal printmakers like Albrecht Dürer\, Rembrandt van Rijn\, Francisco Goya\, and Pablo Picasso. By illuminating some of the complex technical details of printmaking\, the exhibition will enable viewers to consider the creative\, technical\, financial\, and social contexts the have shaped its history. \nExhibition run March 16 through May 14\, 2026 \nEmile H.

DESCRIPTION:Please join us as we welcome the new Director of the Milwaukee Art Museum! \nSince the dawn of civilization\, people have turned to art to make sense of the world around them. From Pliny the Elder’s account of artistic progress to Xie He’s theory of “spirit resonance” and Giorgio Vasari’s biographical narratives of artistic genius\, writers have theorized and systematized how art develops and why it matters. In 1764\, Johann Joachim Winckelmann first coined the term “history of art\,” helping to formalize the discipline and secure its place within the academy. What began as an effort to elevate the study of art eventually became a marker of cultural refinement. \nYet today\, art history — along with many related humanities disciplines — finds itself increasingly marginalized on university campuses and in public life. Programs shrink\, departments merge\, and scholarship is asked to defend its relevance. If art history is fundamentally the study of visual communication\, why has it struggled to communicate its own purpose? What is art history for? \nIn this talk\, Kim Sajet\, the Donna and Donald Baumgartner Director of the Milwaukee Art Museum\, suggests that the answer lies not in defending old hierarchies or rehearsing inherited canons\, but in reimagining the purpose of studying art itself — less as a means of codifying culture or adjudicating status\, and more as a way of creating community and advancing a shared sense of global humanity. \nLecture is free and open to the public.

He is also a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences; the director and founder of Carnegie Mellon’s Center for Africanamerican Urban Studies and the Economy (CAUSE) and past president of both the Urban History Association and the Labor and Working Class History Association. \nThis lecture is based upon Dr. Trotter’s recent book\, Building the Black City: The Transformation of American Life (California\, 2024).  While contemporary urban and labor studies acknowledge the impact of Black labor on the built environment of American cities\, both  scholars and the larger public have found it more difficult to conceptualize predominantly poor and working class Black urbanites as “City-Builders.”  Hence\, this talk will underscore how African Americans double-taxed their own labor and built their own city within the city to serve their own needs.  Whereas the case for reparations is usually based on land dispossession\, unpaid and underpaid labor\, this lecture will move the notion of a “Black City” from the periphery to the center of the case for reparatory justice for descendants of African people “enslaved” and later “Jim Crowed” in the United States of America.  As such\, the case for reparations\, he concludes\, must also include a focus on the creativity of Black people as “City-Builders” in their own interests as well as exploited workers. \nThe Dean’s Distinguished Lecture in the Humanities is made possible by generous funding from the Vilas Trust.

New technologies are revolutionizing how we discover\, monitor\, and conserve nature. Amateur naturalists\, armed with cell phones and Apps\, are collecting data at a rate that would have seemed impossible only a few years ago\, and there is now the prospect of using similar technologies to understand how populations are changing in even the most remote forests and deepest oceans. And tens of millions of people are getting excited about what the spring sounds like. Ian Owens will ask what the next 10 years will look like in this fast-moving area\, drawing on examples from the Cornell Lab of Ornithology and other leaders in the field. \n\nIan Owens is a professor in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at Cornell University. As an ornithologist\, he focuses on the ecology\, evolution\, and conservation of birds\, using their appeal to engage the public in critical scientific and sustainability issues. Since 2021\, he has served as the Louis Agassiz Fuertes Executive Director of the Cornell Laboratory of Ornithology\, a leading scientific institute that integrates major programs in technology\, research\, education\, communication\, and global bird conservation. The Cornell Lab is not only a hub for research and training but also enjoys a prominent public profile as the home of several citizen science projects\, apps\, and websites. Notable initiatives include eBird\, Merlin\, All About Birds\, Bird Cams\, Celebrate Urban Birds\, Birds of the World\, and the Macaulay Library of sound recordings. \n\n  URL:https://uwm.edu/letters-science/event/deans-distinguished-lecture-in-the-natural-sciences-artificial-intelligence-citizen-science-and-the-future-of-conservation/ LOCATION:UWM Union Ballroom\, 2200 East Kenwood Blvd.\, Milwaukee\, WI\, 53211\, United States CATEGORIES:Lectures Conferences and Symposiums,Natural Sciences,UWM Campus Events ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/webp:https://uwm.edu/letters-science/wp-content/uploads/sites/255/2026/03/Dr-Ian-Owens-1.webp X-TRIBE-STATUS: GEO:43.0752308;-87.881425 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=UWM Union Ballroom 2200 East Kenwood Blvd. Milwaukee WI 53211 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=2200 East Kenwood Blvd.:geo:-87.881425,43.0752308 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20260409T163000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20260409T173000 DTSTAMP:20260519T031247 CREATED:20260309T145406Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260326T164141Z UID:10017576-1775752200-1775755800@uwm.edu SUMMARY:Marden Lecture Series Presents: Juggling Counts DESCRIPTION:Presented by Prof. Steve Butler\, Morrill\, Professor of Mathematics at Iowa State University \nMathematics is a language which can help us describe and explore patterns. One source of patterns that mathematicians have been exploring comes from juggling (the tossing of objects\, usually balls or clubs). We will look at multiple ways to describe juggling patterns that allow us to find new juggling patterns\, and to count how many possible patterns exist. We can compare answers to various problems to give a combinatorial proof of Worpitzky’s identity. We will also look at a few juggling-based problems that mathematics has not yet succeeded in answering. \nThis event is a part of the Marden Lecture Series\, each Spring the Department of Mathematical Sciences invites a distinguished mathematician to lecture to a general audience. The Marden Lecture honors Morris Marden (1905 – 1991)\, who founded our graduate program and made our department a research department. The Marden lecture is funded through the Miriam and Morris Marden Fund and is co-sponsored by the Department of Mathematical Sciences.

Humor\, it turns out\, is not only a valid way to approach this revisioning\, but also one of the best ways to highlight positive trends in American Jewish identification. Rather than relying on older “continuity-based” models of what Judaism needs to do to survive that put disproportionate pressure (and blame) on Jewish women\, acontemporary Jewish humor reimagines many aspects of Jewish life—including Jewish gender tropes—and offers younger generations a vision of Jewishness they want to embrace.\n\nJennifer Caplan is The Jewish Foundation Chair of Cincinnati Chair in Judaic Studies at University of Cincinnati. She is the author of Funny\, You Don’t Look Funny: Judaism and Comedy from the Silent Generation to Millennials (2023) and co-editor of Wit Happens: Global Jewish Humor (2026). She publishes broadly on Judaism and popular culture with a focus on gender and representation and is currently working on Unmasked: Jewish Characters in DC and Marvel. \nMade by possible by the generosity of the Taxman and Temkin families.\nCosponsored by UWM’s Departments of English and Women’s and Gender Studies. \n  URL:https://uwm.edu/letters-science/event/jennifer-caplan-funny-you-dont-look-funny-jews-comedy-and-gender/ LOCATION:UWM Golda Meir Library\, 4th Floor Conference Center\, 2311 East Hartford Avenue\, Milwaukee\, WI\, 53211\, United States CATEGORIES:Arts and Culture,Lectures Conferences and Symposiums,Public,UWM Campus Events ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/webp:https://uwm.edu/letters-science/wp-content/uploads/sites/255/2026/02/WOV_Lecture.webp ORGANIZER;CN="Sam and Helen Stahl Center for Jewish Studies":MAILTO:cjsuwm@uwm.edu X-TRIBE-STATUS: GEO:43.0771478;-87.880293 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=UWM Golda Meir Library 4th Floor Conference Center 2311 East Hartford Avenue Milwaukee WI 53211 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=2311 East Hartford Avenue:geo:-87.880293,43.0771478 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20260313T183000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20260313T210000 DTSTAMP:20260519T031247 CREATED:20260206T161924Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260206T161924Z UID:10017566-1773426600-1773435600@uwm.edu SUMMARY:The Vera C.

Along with his 1925 review\, he also translated the last two pages of the novel\, Molly Bloom’s sensation-creating\, stream-of-consciousness monologue. Perhaps starstruck by the legendary pairing of two of the twentieth century’s most influential authors\, many scholars have taken his claim as indisputable evidence that Borges single-handedly introduced Joyce to Latin America\, and of the enduring impact of his translation. This talk will reveal that the true story of Joyce’s introduction to Spanish language readers is both more complex and more interesting than the one traditionally told. \nDr. Leah Leone Anderson is a Visiting Scholar with UWM’s Center for Latin American and Caribbean Studies. Her book\, Borges’s Creative Infidelities: Translating Joyce\, Woolf and Faulkner (2024) was made possible with CLACS’s support. Her current research focuses on the work of Argentine critic\, translator\, and memoirist María Rosa Oliver (1898-1977). \n  URL:https://uwm.edu/letters-science/event/borges-joyce-and-the-not-quite-first-spanish-language-review-of-ulysses/ LOCATION:UWM Golda Meir Library\, AGS Library (3rd Floor\, East Wing)\, 2311 E.

Darwin. Darwin was an avid geologist and biologist who most famously developed the theory of natural selection—one of the driving mechanisms behind biological evolution—published in his seminal work: On the Origin of Species. Today\, this theory forms the foundation for many of our natural sciences. Darwin Day is a national celebration of Darwin’s scientific legacy typically held on (or near) his birthday. \nThis event is free and open to guests of all ages. Many wonderful geological and biological specimens will be available to observe\, with volunteers on hand to explain their fascinating histories. Learning tables will focus on the natural history of Wisconsin and the contributions of the Thomas A. Greene to our understanding of local geology\, with many rare and beautiful samples on display in the Greene Geological Museum. Other activities will be available throughout the day\, including scientific lectures presented by UWM scientists and guest speakers\, coloring and crafts for young kids\, and free planetarium shows. See the activities list and schedule of events on our webpage for more information. \nWe can’t wait to see you there!

By blending Artificial Intelligence with more traditional artistic expression\, Generation to Generation: Conversing with Kindred Technologies cultivates new pathways for imagination while nurturing the roots of our creative inheritance\, and the always-evolving dialogue between art and innovation.    \nThis groundbreaking exhibition illuminates the intertwined evolution of humanity and technology\, inviting viewers to reconsider the relationship between humans and the tools we invent through an immersive fusion of sculptures\, prints\, electronics\, music\, movement\, and poetry\, all born from creative collaboration with AI.   \nThis exhibition is part of the Center for 21st Century Studies’ Aesthetics\, Art\, & AI series\, produced in collaboration with the Center for the Humanities at UW-Madison\, with support from the Consortium for Humanities Centers and Institutes (CHCI). \nDate & Time\nFebruary 12–20\, 2026\nWednesday–Fridays (2–7 p.m.)\, Saturdays (11 a.m.–3 p.m.)\nOpening: Thursday\, February 12 (5–7 p.m.) URL:https://uwm.edu/letters-science/event/generation-to-generation-conversing-with-kindred-technologies/ LOCATION:WI CATEGORIES:Arts and Culture,Faculty and Staff,Public,Students,UWM Campus Events ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/webp:https://uwm.edu/letters-science/wp-content/uploads/sites/255/2026/01/ewaste.webp ORGANIZER;CN="Center for 21st Century Studies":MAILTO:c21@uwm.edu X-TRIBE-STATUS: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20260126 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20260227 DTSTAMP:20260519T031247 CREATED:20251125T161012Z LAST-MODIFIED:20251125T161012Z UID:10017560-1769385600-1772150399@uwm.edu SUMMARY:Rebellious Stripes: The American Flag in Activist Art\, 1960–2025 DESCRIPTION:The American flag originated as an act of protest. That status intensified in the second half of the twentieth century\, as protest movements have used and manipulated the flag in provocative ways. Activists and artists have continued to mobilize the flag in pursuit of a variety of objectives\, prompting intense public and legal debates about what the flag is (materially)\, what it represents (symbolically)\, and how it can or should be used. Rebellious Stripes: The American Flag in Activist Art\, 1960-2025 explores the use of the American flag in activist artworks focused on political figures\, racial equality\, anti-imperialism\, and social and economic justice. It draws primarily from the UWM Art Collection\, with additions from the UWM Libraries’ Special Collections and Archives\, and two Universities of Wisconsin faculty-artists. Collectively\, the objects in Rebellious Stripes demonstrate the ongoing battle for control of the American flag as people across the political spectrum employ it to signal a range of messages beyond ‘patriotism.\n\nThe Mathis Gallery is open from 10:30 AM – 2:00 PM M-Th and by appointment.

Historically\, the term ‘icon’ (Greek for ‘image’) is associated with Christian traditions\, aligning most notably with venerated religious figures. Today\, ‘icon’ is often used more loosely\, to refer to something that has become recognizable on a mass scale\, but the deep histories of religious imagery inevitably wend their way into iconic representations. Drawing from the UWM Art Collection and supplemented with works from the American Geographical Society Library\, American Icons invites viewers to consider what Americans choose to venerate – political and historical figures\, national landscapes and monuments\, and celebrities and consumer goods. By examining the visual products of reverence\, the exhibition demonstrates the multifaceted\, complex\, and mutable nature of American identity and the ways it is (re)defined by an ever-changing set of icons.\n\n\nThe Mathis Gallery is open from 10:30 AM – 2:00 PM M-Th and by appointment.

In the year that’s passed since that report’s publication\, the Corporation for Public Broadcasting lost its federal funding\, the National Endowment for the Humanities was radically restructured\, causing state humanities agencies to lose funding to the point of near closure\, and multiple U.S. universities have taken steps to shrink\, pause\, or shutter humanities degree-granting programs. \nBut the resilience of humanities practices and institutions in the face of so much uncertainty evinces their value\, and merits further dialogue. \nThe State of the Humanities MKE panel\, moderated by C21 Director Jennifer Johung\, invites four Milwaukee-based humanities advocates—Michael Carriere (MSOE)\, Art Derse (MCW)\, Jodi Eastberg (MIAD)\, and Maggie Nettesheim Hoffmann (Marquette)—to discuss: \n\nWhat’s important about the humanities in Milwaukee\, especially in our current moment?\nWhat are we fighting to sustain\, expand\, or ideate?\nHow can we care for the humanities in MKE? What does this look like?\n\nAfter the panel\, guests are invited to head upstairs to C21’s headquarters for a reception and small breakout discussions about actionable steps everyone can take to make Milwaukee a haven for humanists. \nThis event is free and open to the public. Space is limited. Prior registration is required. \n\nAbout the Panelists\nMichael H.

Is there a climate crisis that is so urgent that we must take whatever measures are necessary to lower carbon footprints? Or will buying too much into emotions of urgency generate hasty solutions that actually stymie progress? Some Indigenous traditions offer ethics based on responsibility and kinship that present ways in which time and ethics can be aligned\, allowing us to be urgent but moral\, and address the physical causes of climate change while fostering solidarity with the communities who experience climate injustice. \nDr. Whyte’s research addresses moral and political issues concerning climate policy and Indigenous peoples\, the ethics of cooperative relationships between Indigenous peoples and science organizations\, and problems of Indigenous justice in public and academic discussions of food sovereignty\, environmental justice\, and the anthropocene. He is an enrolled member of the Citizen Potawatomi Nation. \nThe Center for 21st Century Studies (C21) fosters innovative research and community engagement at the intersection of the humanities\, arts\, and sciences. C21’s theme for 2024-2025 is Slow Knowing: The Pace of Being Human\, with programming and sponsored research that calls attention to embodied processes of building and maintaining collective life that resist the fast-paced efficiency models and short attention spans that increasingly define human responses to 21st century social\, political\, and ecological challenges. \nDoors open at 5:00pm. Refreshments will be served before and after the talk. \nThis event is free and open to the public.

Here\, I make the case for an intentional turn toward methodologies of hope\, a re-orientation toward apprehending creative politics that advance sociospatial relations of emplacement\, collectivity\, accountability\, mutuality and thriving. I explore digital and emplaced tactics of mutual aid\, direct action\, and insurgent visual politics created by Stop the Sweeps\, a horizontal network of local collectivities fighting public eviction of tent encampments of unsheltered people in cities and towns across the US. \nHope is an animating force underlying these digital\, material and ideological pathways toward staying put and living well in the city\, yet ironically\, hope is largely absent from the theoretical-epistemological fabric of ‘critical’ social science research on digital cities. I argue for abundance-oriented analyses of the urban politics being forged by precarious communities and their allies\, showing how this shift opens a vital window onto complex networks of solidarity and mutual support that are generating profound challenges to the circuits of harm that define life in the digital city. \n  URL:https://uwm.edu/letters-science/event/digital-geographies-the-city-methodologies-of-hope/ LOCATION:American Geographical Society Library inside the Golda Meir Library (3rd Floor)\, 2311 E.

Darwin. Darwin was an avid geologist and biologist who most famously developed the theory of natural selection—one of the driving mechanisms behind biological evolution—published in his seminal work: On the Origin of Species. Today\, this theory forms the foundation for many of our natural sciences. Darwin Day is a national celebration of Darwin’s scientific legacy typically held on (or near) his birthday. Darwin Day is a free event and open to guests of all ages. Many wonderful geological and biological specimens will be available to observe\, with volunteers on hand to explain their fascinating histories. Learning tables focusing on the natural history of Wisconsin and the contributions of Thomas A. Greene to our understanding of local Wisconsin geology will be spread throughout Lapham Hall\, with many rare and beautiful samples on display from the Thomas A. Greene geological collection. Other activities will be available throughout the day\, including presentations by UWM scientists and guest speakers\, a scavenger hunt\, activities for kids\, and booths featuring many community organizations.

The project has conducted in-depth\, semi-structured interviews with four cohorts: newly accepted students\, early graduate students (pre-qualifying exams)\, advanced graduate students (dissertation level)\, and recent PhDs (0-5 years since graduation). The research questions in the study are: \nWhat are lived experiences of successful underrepresented students who are pursuing mathematics PhDs?\nWhat formal and informal structures are perceived by doctoral students as effective supports? \nThemes drawn from the interviews can inform department policies and practices to create environments that support students from underrepresented groups as they earn PhDs in mathematics. \nPresented by Dr. Sarah Sword\nPrincipal Research Scientist\nEducation Development Center\, Inc.

Email wgs@uwm.edu for the link or for more information. \nJennifer Boittin is the Frank Porter Graham Distinguished Professor of Global History at UNC. She received her PhD in History from Yale University and was previously a professor at Penn State University. Her research and teaching look at how colonial spaces in West Africa\, Southeast Asia\, North Africa\, and the French Caribbean were shaped by intersections between class\, politics\, and urban culture around the world wars and decolonization. Completed in part thanks to a Paris Institute for Advanced Studies fellowship\, her second book is entitled Undesirable: Passionate Mobility and Women’s Defiance of French Colonial Policing\, 1919-1952 (2022\, University of Chicago Press). Undesirable tells the virtually unknown history of hundreds of women in Southeast Asia (French Indochina) and West Africa (AOF) tracked by authorities because they were traveling alone and claiming Frenchness. Drawn from Cambodian\, French\, and Senegalese archives\, Undesirable’s focus on how ordinary people react to being policed gives historical depth to pressing contemporary issues of migration and violence in France today and of similar reckonings on a global scale.

Register for this online event to receive the link. A clickable link is below in the website section or copy and paste: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/uw-system-faculty-lecture-series-derek-handley-tickets-1043213679197 \nThe urban renewal policies of the 1950s and 1960s destroyed the economic centers of many Black neighborhoods in the United States. Struggle for the City recovers the agency and solidarity of African American residents confronting this diagnosis of “blight.” This presentation discusses how African American residents in the Hill District of Pittsburgh\, the Bronzeville neighborhood of Milwaukee\, and the Rondo neighborhood of St. Paul enacted Black Rhetorical Citizenship to fight for their communities. By centering the residents in their own narratives of displacement\, this presentation demonstrates how local organizers\, leaders\, and residents used rhetorics of placemaking\, community organizing\, and critical memory to resist the bulldozing visions of urban renewal. \nDerek G. Handley is an assistant professor in the English Department\, affiliated faculty in African and African Diaspora Studies department\, and affiliated faculty in the Urban Studies Program at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. He is co-director of the Mapping Racism and Resistance in Milwaukee County (MRR-MKE) project\, which comprehensively maps racial covenants and uncovers Black resistance to such discrimination. \nThe UW System Lecture Series is co-hosted by C21 and UW-Madison’s Center for the Humanities and highlights faculty research across the Universities of Wisconsin.

Both are Critically Endangered (IUCN Red List). The Grenada Dove is featured on the national emblem and is considered to be a national treasure. By contrast\, the Grenada Frog is virtually unknown. We worked with the IUCN in 2021 to assess the conservation status of all Lesser Antillean amphibians\, where mapping and quantitative ecological analysis prompted a status update of the Grenada frog to “Red List\, Critically Endangered”. This classification is warranted given extinction threats by habitat fragmentation significantly limiting dispersal and gene flow\, reduced global footprint\, threats from development\, climate change\, invasive species\, and disease. Our ongoing work is focused on understanding these threats\, through ecological and genetic studies\, and on strategic and innovative outreach efforts to increase awareness for the Grenada frog and engage citizens to amplify the impacts of conservation actions. These are what shape the overall aims of our research project: 1) to assess species range\, demography\, and population connectivity for this endemic montane frog\, 2) to understand the impact of the fungal disease chytridiomycosis\, and 3) to increase awareness of this unique species through targeted\, long-term education and outreach activities.

In 1974\, the UWM Art Collection was much like the young university itself: small\, impressive\, and growing. With this significant gift\, the artwork on campus more than doubled in number and was codified into one collection that highlighted modern art of the twentieth century. \nThis exhibition presents the personal aesthetic interests of the Rosenbergs while also considering collecting trends of the mid-twentieth century. The breadth and depth of the collection is especially significant when evaluating their decision to bequeath their collection to UWM to support teaching and learning. Major modern artists featured include Pablo Picasso\, Georges Braque\, Joan Miró\, Ernst Kirchner\, Jean Arp\, Barbara Hepworth\, Henry Moore\, Jean Dubuffet\, Alexei Jawlensky\, and more. Also presented are works by the donor\, Blanche Rosenberg\, who studied in the fine arts department here at UWM. Organized to showcase major art historical movements represented in the collection\, this show underscores the ways this donation established a strong teaching collection here at UWM and honors the legacy of these impactful donors. \nCurated by academic curator Leigh Mahlik\, exhibition runs through November 14\, 2024. The Emile H. Mathis Art Gallery in Mitchell Hall Rm 170 is open 10-4 Monday-Thursday and is free to the public.

The number of Haudenosaunee women and girls playing the sport has burgeoned since the 1980s. This book roots lacrosse as a Haudenosaunee sport both within and outside of these communities. \nDr. Sharity Bassett is an Assistant Professor of Women’s & Gender Studies and Associate Director of the Electa Quinney Institute for American Indian Education (EQI) at UW-Milwaukee.

The degree to which agriculture is successfully multifunctional owes much to feedback among individual decisions\, social institutions\, and environmental systems. We examine dairy farms to better understand how social relationships and biophysical dynamics interact to spur or hinder growth of multifunctional agriculture in Wisconsin\, Pennsylvania\, and New York. This work blends a variety of methods\, including social science surveys\, environmental field work\, and spatially-explicit modeling. This research advances our understanding of how social networks and ecosocial feedback affect the sustainable development of managed ecosystems. \nPresented by Steven Manson\, Professor in the Department of Geography\, Environment\, and Society at the University of Minnesota.

His goal in doing so is to understand a separate body of lettered practices whose origins cannot be accounted for without considering the role of indigenismo. These ‘other’ lettered practices are mostly\, but not solely\, created by indigenous peoples. As importantly\, accounting for this body of literature involves articulating a notion of indigeneity that does not arise exclusively as an expression of an indigenous identity or culture\, but rather as the product of collaborations and exchanges between indigenous and non-indigenous actors in a wide\, or widened\, discursive field.

The craft talk will be at 3 pm and a reading and Q&A will be at 7 pm. \nMecca Jamilah Sullivan’s fiction explores the intellectual\, emotional\, and bodily lives of young black women through voice\, music\, and hip-hop inflected magical realist techniques. She is the author of the short story collection Blue Talk and Love (2015)\, winner of the Judith Markowitz Award for Fiction from Lambda Literary; The Poetics of Difference: Queer Feminist Forms in the African Diaspora (2022)\, winner of the William Sanders Scarborough Prize from the Modern Language Association; and her critically acclaimed debut novel Big Girl (W.W.

Ellenberg from UW-Madison. \nThe “random walk” is a mathematical concept which underlies the way scientists now think about everything from stock markets to Wisconsin’s legislative districts to the latest developments in AI. Ellenberg will talk about the surprising history of this concept\, which between 1905-1910 was invented simultaneously by multiple people in multiple countries for completely different purposes\, from mosquito control to physics to finance to winning a theological argument (really!) And then he will move to the present day and talk about the rise of large language models\, the modern descendants of the random walk. Are they just mindless algorithms\, or can they generate authentically new ideas in writing and math? \nEllenberg is the John D. MacArthur Professor of Mathematics and Vilas Distinguished Achievement Professor of Mathematics at UW-Madison. He is the author of New York Times bestsellers “How Not to be Wrong\,” and “Shape: The Hidden Geometry of Absolutely Everything\,” as well as many research papers. Most recently he has been collaborating with Google DeepMind on projects at the interface of math and artificial intelligence. \nBooks can be purchased from Boswell Book Company at the event and a book signing with Ellenberg immediately follows the lecture. Book sales are credit or debit only. \nRSVP not required but appreciated at (clickable hyperlink below): \nhttps://uwmletsci.vbotickets.com/event/From_malaria_to_chatGPT_the_birth_and_strange_life_of_the_random_walk/136456 (clickable hyperlink below) URL:https://uwm.edu/letters-science/event/from-malaria-to-chatgpt-the-birth-and-strange-life-of-the-random-walk/ LOCATION:UWM Chemistry Building – Room 108\, 2000 E Kenwood Blvd\, Milwaukee\, 53211\, United States CATEGORIES:Lectures Conferences and Symposiums,UWM Campus Events ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/webp:https://uwm.edu/letters-science/wp-content/uploads/sites/255/2024/08/web-calendar-ad.webp ORGANIZER;CN="College of Letters &%3B Science":MAILTO:let-sci@uwm.edu X-TRIBE-STATUS: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20241016T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20241016T143000 DTSTAMP:20260519T031247 CREATED:20240924T010002Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240924T011503Z UID:10015787-1729083600-1729089000@uwm.edu SUMMARY:The Limits of Economic Power: Supply Chains\, Sanctions\, and the God-almighty Dollar DESCRIPTION:The 2024 George F.

Of particular interest is the behavior of the critical orbits of function families with one or more parameters. The simplest of such families\, z^2 +c\, is well-known to define the famous Mandelbrot set fractal as the set of c-values for which the unique critical orbit is bounded. In this talk we will examine the function family R(z) = z^n +b +a/(z^d)\, and we will explore old and new results establishing the location of baby Mandelbrot sets in parameter space for increasingly general versions of this family. In the most general case\, which we call maximally generalized McMullen maps\, this family has multiple independent critical orbits\, and the dynamics in this case are not yet well understood.

Analytical solution of traveling wave is found by taking into account the dispersion coefficient. Numerically\, we demonstrate that the initial concentration of bacteria in the form of a random distribution over time transforms into a periodic wave\, followed by a transition to a stationary solitary wave without dispersion. \nPresented by Dr. Zhaosheng Feng\, Endowed Chair Professor of Mathematics\, University of Texas Rio Grande Valley.

This event is both in-person or via Zoom. To register for the Zoom link see https://wisconsin-edu.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_8tdtZrqyTdecQvrjdfKEyg#/registration \nCan law limit hate speech without violating the First Amendment? In 1977\, a group of Holocaust survivors from Skokie\, Illinois filed a class action lawsuit to stop a planned neo-Nazi march by alleging menticide — the psychological equivalent of genocide. Nazi words and symbols constituted a form of violence\, they claimed\, not constitutionally protected speech. In this lecture\, historian James Loeffler reconstructs this curious episode and discusses its larger implications for the contemporary debate over antisemitism and free speech in American law. \nJames Loeffler is Felix Posen Professor of Jewish History at Johns Hopkins University\, and co-editor of the Association for Jewish Studies Review. His writings include two award-winning books\, Rooted Cosmopolitans: Jews and Human Rights in the Twentieth Century and The Most Musical Nation: Jews and Culture in the Late Russian Empire\, and two edited volumes\, The Law of Strangers: Jewish Lawyers and International Law in the Twentieth Century and A Jew in the Street: New Views on European Jewish History. He is currently writing a book about antisemitism and the First Amendment in postwar America\, which grew out of his Atlantic magazine article about his coverage of the trial of the White Supremacist organizers of the 2017 attack on Charlottesville. \nContact Rachel Baum at rbaum@uwm.edu or 414-229-5156 with questions or for assistance.

Ugh\, English\, why are you like this? Maybe you’ve resigned yourself to the idea that all we can do is shrug. That’s just how it it is. But there is an explanation\, and this book is here to help. Highly Irregular takes on the weirdness of English with clear\, playfully illustrated answers to a range of questions about its quirks. At the same time\, it’s a deeper history of English and how we made it the way it is. \nArika Okrent was born in Chicago and became fascinated with languages at an early age. She flitted from language to language in school\, wondering why she couldn’t just settle down and commit to one\, until she finally discovered a field that would support and encourage her scandalous behavior: Linguistics. After some lengthy affairs with Hungarian (she taught in Hungary after college) and American Sign Language (she earned an M.A. in Linguistics from Gallaudet\, the world’s only university for the Deaf)\, she began a Ph.D. program at the University of Chicago\, where she fell hard for Psycholinguistics. She first worked in a gesture research lab\, and later took up with a brain research lab\, where she conducted the experiments that would earn her a degree in 2004. By that time she had begun to spend long afternoons with the languages that even linguists think they’re too good for — the artificial languages\, losers like Esperanto and Klingon. Initial feelings of pity and revulsion gave way to fascination and affection\, and she embarked on a whirlwind romance with the history of invented languages. The love child of this passion is her 2009 book In the Land of Invented Languages. \nRead more about Arika at http://arikaokrent.com/bio/ \n  URL:https://uwm.edu/letters-science/event/highly-irregular-why-tough-through-and-dough-dont-rhyme-and-other-oddities-of-the-english-language/ LOCATION:UWM Merrill Hall\, Room 131\, 2512 East Hartford Avenue\, Milwaukee\, WI\, 53211\, United States CATEGORIES:Lectures Conferences and Symposiums,UWM Campus Events X-TRIBE-STATUS: GEO:43.078365;-87.8785807 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=UWM Merrill Hall Room 131 2512 East Hartford Avenue Milwaukee WI 53211 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=2512 East Hartford Avenue:geo:-87.8785807,43.078365 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20240509T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20240509T210000 DTSTAMP:20260519T031247 CREATED:20240420T173121Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240420T173558Z UID:10015754-1715281200-1715288400@uwm.edu SUMMARY:Coded Bias - a Science on Screen presentation as part of Milwaukee Film DESCRIPTION:When MIT Media Lab researcher Joy Buolamwini discovers that many facial recognition technologies misclassify women and darker-skinned faces\, she delves into an investigation of widespread bias in algorithms. “Coded Bias” explores the fallout and Joy’s journey to push for the first-ever legislation in the U.S. to govern against bias in the algorithms that impact us all. \nImmediately prior to the screening\, sociology professor Noelle Chesley will host a discussion on the topic. Her scholarship engages questions regarding the role of technological innovation in shaping the experiences and outcomes of workers and their families.

Such disparity has been greatly attributed to several risk factors such as genetics\, socio-economic status\, comorbidities\, amongst others. Primarily\, this study aims to examine spatiotemporal variation in lung cancer mortality rates in the State of Wisconsin\, U.S.A. The study also seeks to explore the relationship between socio-economic\, environmental variables and lung cancer mortality. For this study\, lung cancer mortality county level data from the United States Center for Disease Control (CDC) and\, the National Cancer Institute’s Surveillance\, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER)\, which is aggregated and age-adjusted according to the 2000 U.S standard million population were used. Also\, county level socio-economic data like education attainment\, median household income\, unemployment and PM 2.5 data were gathered from the American Community Survey (ACS) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) respectively. Scan statistics (SaTScan) will be used to analyze the spatiotemporal pattern of mortality clusters. In addition\, regression analysis will be used to assess statistical significance and measure the relationship between lung cancer mortality and county level socio-economic and environmental factors in Wisconsin. This study hopes to show potential cluster patterns in lung cancer mortality in the study area\, which might suggest uneven spatial temporal mortality risk.

She has received honors from the Guggenheim Foundation\, the National Endowment for the Arts\, MacDowell\, the Poetry Foundation\, and the Bread Loaf Writers’ Conference. She has also led workshops\, craft classes\, and craft talks for the Indiana University Writers’ Conference\, the Minnesota Northwoods\nWriters Conference\, the Yale Young Writers’ Workshop\, and more. She is an associate professor at the University of Colorado Denver\, where she is a poetry editor for Copper Nickel. \nHer latest book of poems is “Real Phonies and Genuine Fakes.”\nWhat is illusion—a deception\, or a revelation? What is a poem—the truth\, or “a diverting flash\, / a mirror showing everything / but itself”?\nNicky Beer’s latest collection of poems is a labyrinthine academy specializing in the study of subterfuge; Marlene Dietrich\, Dolly Parton\, and Batman are its instructors. With an energetic eye\, she thumbs through our collective history books—and her personal one\, too—in an effort to chart the line between playful forms of duplicity and those that are far more insidious. \nThrough delicious japery\, poems that can be read multiple ways\, and allusions ranging from Puccini’s operas to Law & Order\, Beer troubles the notion of truth. Often\, we settle for whatever brand of honesty is convenient for us\, or whatever is least likely to spark confrontation—but this\, Beer knows\, is how we invite others to weigh in on what kind of person we are. This is how we trick ourselves into believing they’re right. “Listen / to how quiet it is when I lose the self-doubt played / for so long I mistook it for music.” \n“Real Phonies and Genuine Fakes” asks us to look through the stereoscope: which image is the real one? This one—or this one\, just here? With wisdom\, humility\, and a forthright tenderness\, Nicky Beer suggests that we consider both—together\, they might contribute to something like truth.

Emphasizing the heightened susceptibility of young children during organ development\, the research examines literature on sources of household lead exposure and the complex interplay of sociodemographic factors contributing to the risk of childhood lead poisoning. In the context of Milwaukee’s notable racial and socioeconomic disparities\, the study assesses the existing intervention strategies. Key considerations include their effectiveness\, alignment with racial residential segregation\, and their impact on vulnerable communities. The research also delves into the geographical placement of interventions concerning areas of exposure and the criteria used to determine their boundaries.

However\, they are also flood risk maps that can serve as risk communication tools. FIRMs have several sources of bias and inaccuracy. As a result\, their capacity to communicate flood risk is limited. FIRMs should be complemented with relevant datasets to ascertain a more holistic notion of risk. I propose to investigate the effectiveness of complementing FIRMs with Community Resilience Estimates Data from the US Census Bureau to communicate flood risk. To conduct this study\, National Flood Hazard Layer data and Community Resilience Estimates data will be combined in flood risk maps based on risk communication and cartography design principles. Surveys will then be administered to Milwaukee County residents to evaluate how successful these maps are at conveying the spatial distribution of flood risk and the contribution of social vulnerability to flood risk. The results from this study could show the potential of using FIRMs for more holistic flood risk communication purposes.

Kokoro connotes intellectual\, emotional\, and spiritual states and attributes. Kokoro is also a key lexeme in Japan’s two main religions: the animistic native Shintō and Buddhism. In August 2017\, SoftBank’s humanoid robot Pepper role-played as a Buddhist priest at a funeral services expo under the supervision of a human priest who assessed whether the robot was able perform “with kokoro.” When theorizing human-robot interactions\, roboticists also include kokoro as a crucial quality and effect of social engagement. Kokoro figures centrally in the titles of several Japanese books on robots and AI. Several cognitive roboticists are working to “imagineer” (imagine + engineer) robot kokoro through innovative software algorithms and creative interpretations of AI. Pepper was conceived as a humanoid robot “with kokoro.” Technology and robots have been developed and applied for both secular and religious purposes\, although the appropriation of robotic technologies and AI for religious purposes is perhaps less recognized than their secular applications. This presentation explores how religious technologies and affective human-robot relations are conjointly imagineered theoretically and in practice. \nThis talk is generously sponsored by the Northeast Asia Council of the Association for Asian Studies\, US Department of Education Title VI NRC Grant\, Asian Studies Certificate Program\, Department of Global Studies\, Department of Anthropology\, Japanese Program\, and Honors College.

Turfgrass lawns are now among the largest irrigated crops in the U.S.\, contributing to high rates of water and fertilizer use. Yet we know little about the social and ecological dynamics of different landscape types\, such as mesic lawns and xeric yards\, which involve a diverse array of potential values and associated decision tradeoffs. Past research has largely focused on either social or ecological elements of residential landscapes\, for example\, historic and modern aesthetic preferences or the composition and diversity of species. Our ongoing project aims to advance integrated knowledge about residential landscapes as important components of urban ecosystems by examining how cognitive (cultural values\, beliefs\, and norms) and structural (social institutions and urban form) factors drive yard management practices\, and in turn\, affect biogeochemical and ecological processes at the household and neighborhood scales. Within this overarching framework\, our workshop course explored two primary research objectives. First\, we examined the influence of residents’ values on landscape structure and the degree to which expressed preferences match actual landscape choices\, and second\, we assessed how neighborhood-level institutions impact landscape structure\, with special focus on the legacy effects of development decisions. To address the first objective\, we linked social survey data with extensive observational field surveys in four case study neighborhoods throughout Phoenix\, Arizona. For the second goal\, we examined the Covenants\, Codes and Restrictions (CCRs) in Homeowner Associations (HOAs) that govern landscaping\, in addition to conducting interviews with developers about their landscaping decisions and how they have changed over time. Our findings highlight the significance of multiple scales of human drivers (see Figure 1) in the broader context of the social-ecology of residential landscapes. Although values were not a strong driver of yard choices\, they mildly influenced both expressed preferences and manifest choices in diverse Phoenix neighborhoods\, particularly domain-specific values embodied in environmentally-oriented yard maintenance priorities. Meanwhile\, our analyses of institutional forces highlights the role of broader structural forces that influence residential landscape structure and management. As developers respond to market conditions and broader constraints in producing residential landscapes over time\, the effects may last long into the future since original development decisions establish the built context and become institutionalized in HOA CCRs. Our analysis of a sample of Covenants\, Codes\, and Restrictions for Phoenix-area subdivisions specifically indicated the potential for neighborhoodlevel private institutions to dictate landscape maintenance and structure\, topography and water management\, and species composition\, with potentially significant impacts on the ecosystem services provided. In sum\, further interdisciplinary analysis of the human drivers of yard structure and management at multiple scales (see Figure 1)—from households and neighborhoods to municipalities and broader regional forces—will reveal the complex dynamics involved in the production of residential landscapes and their social and ecological consequences for current and future generations.

We are compelled to understand further; what is the cause\, the basic underlying principles? Mathematics is full of symmetries\, patterns and visuals that we can appreciate in their own right or use to explain and illustrate concepts. And\, they can also drive us to discovery. I will tell a story of chip-firing\, a mathematical idea that leads to fascinatingly intricate structures. The imagery of these structures has spurred many questions to which we know surprisingly few answers. \nPresented by Professor Caroline Klivans\, Brown University. \nA reception follows the lecture in EMS E495. \nThe Marden lecture\, along with Marden scholarships\, is supported by the Marden family. Dr. Morris Marden (1905-1991) was a Distinguished Professor Emeritus of Mathematics and is generally considered to have been the founder of the Mathematics Department at UWM as a research department\, and he is the person most responsible for the beginning of graduate programs at UWM.

In this talk\, Matthew Rarey argues that this question\, far from being a contemporary ethical challenge\, was of critical importance to Africans and Indigenous people swept up in the Atlantic traffic of ideas and lives in the early eighteenth century. Critically analyzing a series of surreptitious and visually benign objects contained or referenced in colonial archives in Brazil and Portugal\, Rarey suggests that mapping the visual culture of Atlantic slavery ethically requires engaging objects produced as challenges to\, and archives of\, their makers’ experiences of displacement and diaspora. \nMatthew Rarey is Associate Professor of African and Black Atlantic Art History and the Chair of Art History at Oberlin College and Conservatory. He researches and teaches the art history of the Black Atlantic\, with a focus on connections between West Africa\, Brazil\, and Portugal from the seventeenth through twenty-first centuries. His research looks to visual and material culture to centralize Africans’ contributions to histories of slavery\, racial formation\, religion\, and commodity exchange. His first book\, Insignificant Things: Amulets and the Art of Survival in the Early Black Atlantic\, was published in 2023 by Duke University Press. \nMatthew Rarey’s biography can be viewed at: https://www.oberlin.edu/matthew-rarey URL:https://uwm.edu/letters-science/event/insignificant-things-in-the-archives-of-atlantic-slavery/ LOCATION:UWM Mitchell Hall\, Room 195\, 3203 N Downer Ave\, Milwaukee\, WI\, 53211\, United States CATEGORIES:Arts and Culture,Lectures Conferences and Symposiums,UWM Campus Events X-TRIBE-STATUS: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20240328T113000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20240328T124500 DTSTAMP:20260519T031247 CREATED:20240306T043220Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240306T043629Z UID:10014478-1711625400-1711629900@uwm.edu SUMMARY:Planning Your Publishing Career - A Virtual Roundtable DESCRIPTION:Learn from a panel of local and national book publicity experts about how to plan for a career in the publishing world. The event will overview how each panelist started their career in publishing and offer advice for students (undergrad and grad) on how to prepare now to land your dream publishing job.

Although stand-up comedy is often described as a ‘boys’ club\,’ the truth is that there have always been influential women on the scene. Alongside Jewish male comics like Groucho Marx\, Lenny Bruce\, Jack Benny\, and Jerry Seinfeld\, there were pioneering Jewish female stand-ups like Jean Carroll\, Joan Rivers\, Totie Fields\, and Sarah Silverman\, offering their inimitable insights on the experience of being a Jew—and a woman—in the United States. From tackling double standards to deflating stereotypes like the “Jewish American Princess\,” Jewish female stand-up comedians have made major contributions to the way that American audiences have seen Jewish women—and the way that Jewish women have seen themselves. \nPresented by Grace Overbeke\, assistant professor in the theatre department at Columbia College. Her academic focus is in comedy studies and has been published in Shofar: An Interdisciplinary Journal of Jewish Studies\, Theatre Topics\, Theatre Annual\, The New England Theatre Journal\, Theatre Survey\, Studies in American Humor\, and The Jewish Forward. She holds a BA in theatre and English from Wesleyan University and an MA and PhD. from Northwestern University in theatre and drama. \nThe Faye Sigman Woman of Valor Lecture is made possible by the generosity of the Taxman and Temkin families. \nThis is a hybrid event with both an in-person and virtual option. Free but registration required at https://wisconsin-edu.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_MA66E_0MQU2q8Ftf05k99g#/registration \nCosponsored by UWM’s Departments of English and Women’s and Gender Studies; and programs in Digital Arts and Culture; Film Studies; and Journalism\, Advertising\, and Media Studies URL:https://uwm.edu/letters-science/event/the-many-mrs-maisels-the-history-of-jewish-female-stand-up-comedians/ LOCATION:UWM Golda Meir Library\, 4th Floor Conference Center\, 2311 East Hartford Avenue\, Milwaukee\, WI\, 53211\, United States CATEGORIES:Lectures Conferences and Symposiums,UWM Campus Events ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/webp:https://uwm.edu/letters-science/wp-content/uploads/sites/255/2024/02/maisels.webp ORGANIZER;CN="Sam and Helen Stahl Center for Jewish Studies":MAILTO:cjsuwm@uwm.edu X-TRIBE-STATUS: GEO:43.0771478;-87.880293 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=UWM Golda Meir Library 4th Floor Conference Center 2311 East Hartford Avenue Milwaukee WI 53211 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=2311 East Hartford Avenue:geo:-87.880293,43.0771478 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20240302T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20240302T140000 DTSTAMP:20260519T031247 CREATED:20240202T164310Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240202T165117Z UID:10014371-1709377200-1709388000@uwm.edu SUMMARY:What’s Next?

We investigate the violence in the City of Chicago by integrating social\, environmental\, and mobility factors in spatial statistical models. The social determinants will be based on a large number of social variables. The environmental criminological factors will be based on the Points of Interest (POI) data that provides information on the density and proximity of human activity convergence. The human mobility pattern in the city will be considered. The spatial and temporal patterns of violence in the city will be studied first\, and then all the factors will be integrated into spatial statistical models to understand how they contribute to the violence variation in the city. It is expected that this study can contribute to a more integrative approach than the public health and spatial criminological approaches to violence prevention.

Energy consumption in urban areas has shown a rapid growth trend\, and reducing the intensity of energy consumption in urban areas has attracted the attention of many scholars. Examining the impact of different spatiotemporal climate factors on energy consumption from the perspective of urban microclimate and their spatial patterns may provide valuable policy implications on urban building energy consumption. This study has three primary goals\, including 1) estimating building energy consumption of the City of Milwaukee\, WI using historical and future weather data\, and verifying the accuracy of future energy demand predictions by comparing them to historical energy use data.; 2) examining the impact of microclimate factors on urban building energy consumption through correlation analysis and regression analysis on building and city scales; and 3) mapping future energy consumption demands over 30 years to visualize spatial and temporal differences.

Abstractly\, an ideal’s structure can be expressed through an object called its minimal resolution\, but there is no explicit method to obtain a minimal resolution in general\, even for the simpler and fundamental class known as monomial ideals. \nIn this talk\, we will focus on resolutions of monomial ideals. In particular\, I will introduce a new combinatorial method that provides a resolution of any monomial ideal using tools from discrete Morse theory.

Kearney is a renowned economist\, specializing in issues related to social policy\, poverty\, and inequality. She presents a data-driven argument for the importance of marriage in addressing economic challenges in the United States\, drawing on over a decade of economic research to demonstrate that households with two married parents\, while still prevalent among the upper class\, have become increasingly rare among other socioeconomic groups\, contributing to inequality and limiting opportunities for certain children. \nMelissa S. Kearney is the Neil Moskowitz Professor of Economics at the University of Maryland. She is also Director of the Aspen Economic Strategy Group; a Research Associate at the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER); and a non-resident Senior Fellow at Brookings and has testified before Congress on income inequality. \nThis event is free and open to the public but a ticket is required.

This event will explain the field and the professional jobs available.  We will explore the career pathways into clinical neuropsychology which will require a graduate degree. These professionals work directly with clients and patients to provide evaluation of neurobehavioral disorders or to research brain-behavior relationships. Careers in forensic psychology\, which also require a graduate degree\, will also be discussed. We will also explore options in psychometrics which involves the administration of various tests that are used by the mental health providers and clinicians. Jobs in psychometrics are available with just a bachelor’s degree. \nThis career planning event is free but registration is required. https://app.joinhandshake.com/stu/events/1478625 \nSpeakers include: \nDr. Sara Swanson\, Chief of Neuropsychology\, Froedtert & The Medical College of Wisconsin \nDr. Eric Larson\, Associate Professor\, Dept. of Psychiatry and Behavioral Medicine\, The Medical College of Wisconsin \nMary Kate Reamer\, Lead Psychometrist\, Froedtert & The Medical College of Wisconsin URL:https://uwm.edu/letters-science/event/careers-in-neuropsychology/ LOCATION:UWM Lubar Hall\, Room S220\, 3202 North Maryland Avenue\, Milwaukee\, 53211\, United States ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/webp:https://uwm.edu/letters-science/wp-content/uploads/sites/255/2024/02/neurosinces.webp X-TRIBE-STATUS: GEO:43.0760445;-87.8822663 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=UWM Lubar Hall Room S220 3202 North Maryland Avenue Milwaukee 53211 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=3202 North Maryland Avenue:geo:-87.8822663,43.0760445 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20240226T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20240226T130000 DTSTAMP:20260519T031247 CREATED:20240122T161437Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240122T162103Z UID:10014329-1708948800-1708952400@uwm.edu SUMMARY:Lactation at Work: Expressing Milk\, Expressed Concern\, and the Expressive Value of Law DESCRIPTION:Dr. Elizabeth Hoffman\, a sociologist from Purdue University\, will present findings from her research on employed mothers. She notes that\, as women entered the US workforce in increasing numbers\, they faced the conundrum of how to maintain breastfeeding and hold down full-time jobs. In 2010\, the Lactation at Work Law (an amendment to the US Fair Labor Standards Act) mandated accommodations for lactating women. Professor Hoffmann’s talk will examine the federal law and its state-level equivalent in Indiana\, drawing on two waves of interviews with human resource personnel\, supervising managers\, and lactating workers. In many ways\, this simple law — requiring break time and privacy for pumping — is a success story. Through advocacy by allies\, education of managers\, and employee initiative\, many organizations created compliant accommodations.  However\, Professor Hoffmann will also challenge the perceived success of the law as truly family-friendly or pro-woman.

However\, compared to other areas of the Arctic\, climate-related changes in the Novaya Zemlya Archipelago (“NZA”)\, in the Russian High Arctic\, are not well understood. The narrow archipelago is unique\, extending northward into the Arctic Ocean and separating the Barents Sea and the Kara Sea. As a result\, all glaciers and lakes in the archipelago have greater exposure to the warmer Arctic Ocean air in the summer\, compared to other major Arctic landmasses\, such as Greenland\, where glaciers and lakes are farther inland and insulated from warmer coastal air. Therefore\, I will investigate changes in the cryosphere and vegetation in the archipelago. Specifically\, the proposed dissertation will 1) construct the longest decadal chronology of glacier change in the NZA\, extending back to the 1950s; 2) develop the first lake inventory for the NZA and analyze spatial and temporal trends in lake ice phenology for benchmark lakes throughout the archipelago; and 3) establish the first vegetation phenology baseline for the NZA and evaluate long-term vegetation change trends since 2000. The findings from the research are expected to improve our understanding of relationships between warming and changes in the cryosphere and vegetation in NZA and contribute to the literature by providing other researchers with the baseline and historical proxy data necessary to validate large scale cryosphere change\, vegetation change\, and sea level rise models.

This is a well-known fact of linear algebra–assuming that we work with real or complex entries. A closer look reveals that the number of elementary operations needed to reduce an n-by-n matrix can be estimated as a function of n\, independently of the matrix! (Can you find such a function?) This is a phenomenon of `bounded elementary reduction’ or\, to put it differently\, of `bounded elementary generation’. \nIt is easy to ask\, but hard to answer\, whether an analogous `bounded elementary generation’ holds for matrices with integral entries (meaning that the allowed elementary operations have to be integral as well). This is now a group-theoretic question with a strong number-theoretic flavor; we have definitely left Kansas. The main goal of my talk is to give a friendly overview of `bounded elementary generation’ over the integers\, and survey its status for other rings of arithmetic nature. \nBounded elementary generation has been linked with algebraic K-theory\, Kazhdan’s property (T)\, representation rigidity\, the congruence subgroup property\, and bounded cohomology. Time permitting\, I will touch on the latter. URL:https://uwm.edu/letters-science/event/elementary-matrix-operations-on-a-napkin/ LOCATION:UWM EMS Building\, Room E495\, 3200 N.

Puskar contends that there is no human activity as common as pushing a button or flipping a switch – a deceptively simple act. Far more than a technical history\, The Switch offers a cultural analysis of how reducing so much human action to binary alternatives (off or on\, one or zero\, this or that) has profoundly reshaped modern society. \nMark Goble\, author of Beautiful Circuits\, says: “Deeply ambitious and sophisticated… Puskar invites us to think more seriously about what happens almost every time we touch one of our devices and turn it on or swipe or click. From the technologies at our fingertips to the vastly larger networks of politics and language that they operate and represent\, The Switch provides a fascinating cultural history of how we have made the modern world\, and been remade in turn\, by the simplest of human actions and the connections they enable.” \nJason Puskar is author of Accident Society: Fiction\, Collectivity\, and the Production of Chance. Puskar earned a PhD in English and American Language and Literature from Harvard University as well as a MPhil in English Literature from the University of Oxford. He is a Professor at UWM.

Mathis Art Gallery. Drawing from recent donations and featuring objects of research attention\, the exhibition emphasizes the gallery’s mission at work. \nThe UWM Art Collection and Emile H. Mathis Art Gallery are distinct in their accessibility to the public and their support of graduate and undergraduate training. Historically\, art museums and collections have been shaped by relatively few people\, and have quietly carried on collecting\, researching\, and displaying works with limited public input. Recently\, art institutions and museum scholars have begun to lift the curtain. Art Works continues this new tradition of transparency. \nThe exhibit features pieces by well-known artists such as Dale Chihuly\, Andy Warhol\, and Alexander Calder. Lesser-known – but no less significant – artists including Max Arthur Cohn\, Karen Fitzgerald\, and Carlos Hermosilla Alvarez are also presented. Art Works highlights the key players that make the Mathis Art Gallery a rich resource for all. \nArt Works: Recent Donations to the UWM Art Collection was curated by Academic Curator Leigh M.W. Mahlik and features research by former undergraduate and graduate student gallery interns\, former gallery teaching assistants\, faculty\, and gallery staff. \nSupport for this exhibition is provided by the Friends of Art History\, the Max Arthur Cohn Preservation Fund\, the Emile H. Mathis Preservation Fund\, the Department of Art History\, and the College of Letters and Sciences. \n  \nPhoto Caption: Detail of Karen Fitzgerald\, Lambent\, 2005\, oil on canvas\, Gift of Karen Fitzgerald and Kohler Foundation\, Inc.\, UWMAC 2021.006.03 URL:https://uwm.edu/letters-science/event/art-works-recent-donations-to-the-uwm-art-collection-2/ LOCATION:Emile H.

DESCRIPTION:A constitution is a blueprint for government. It establishes the structures and processes of government. A constitution is also the embodiment of a set of principles. It reflects the political values of a nation. But\, really\, what is a constitution for? A constitution is for the people who are governed by it. It should serve their purposes and advance their interests. But constitutions need interpretation\, and judges are the key interpreters of constitutions. How do citizens engage with those judges\, and how do those judges engage with citizens? Whether through formal means (like Ireland’s referendum process for amending its constitution) or informal means (like Justice Sotomayor’s appearances on Sesame Street)\, citizens and judges communicate in numerous ways. \nDr. Wendy Martinek is Professor of Political Science at Binghamton University (SUNY)\, where she specializes in judicial politics and behavior. A proud alum of Lawrence University (BA 1990)\, University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee (MA 1995)\, and Michigan State University (PhD 2000)\, Dr. Martinek is a Wisconsin native. \nFree pocket U.S. Constitutions will be available at the event or swing by before the event to pick one up starting at 2:00 pm.

It suggests that the long-established terms such as “traditionality” and ‘modernity” can no longer be seen as mutually exclusive concepts with fixed characteristics\, but rather as fluid categories that existed in the vast crucible of cultural choices – choices made available by the influence of the late Ming literati and Western civilization. It motivates us to understand how open the parameters of cultural discourse were and how accommodating the Chinese cultural repertoire was at that crucial historical moment. \nOpening reception with curator gallery talk is on Thursday\, April 13\, from 5 to 7 pm. Curated by Jingwei Zeng.\nThe exhibit remains open through May 11\, 2023\, Mondays through Thursdays from 10 am to 4 pm. Free and open to the public.

In this talk\, Ward takes her analysis in new directions\, pointing to the global implications of heterosexual misery by analyzing the global “anti-gender” (or “gender critical”) movement and the collective anxiety about gender and sexuality that animates it. Ward conceptualizes “gender critical” projects as expressions of heteroparanoia and psychic dissonance aimed at reconciling the paradoxes of modern heterosexuality\, and offers a feminist assessment of these projects’ trajectories.

They were discovered strictly for mathematical considerations\, in the early part of the 20th century\, by mathematicians Paul Painlevé\, Bertrand Gambier and Richard Fuchs. Nevertheless\, these equations have arisen in a variety of important physical applications including for example statistical mechanics\, random matrix theory\, general relativity and fibre optics. In this talk\, I will start by giving an overview of the history of the Painlevé equations and describing the classical questions surrounding the transcendental nature of their solutions. I will then explain how\, in recent years\, considerable progress has been made in understanding these equations algebraically. \nDr. Nagloo holds a bachelor’s degree in math from the University of Mauritius\, an MSc in pure mathematics from Imperial College London\, and a PhD in mathematics from the University of Leeds in London. \nReception follows in EMS E495.

For Zoom link register at https://bit.ly/Kirzane \nMiriam Karpilove (1888-1956) was a prolific Yiddish writer certain of her own importance\, even as she was ignored by critics and largely forgotten during her own lifetime. In this lecture\, Jessica Kirzane\, who has devoted the past several years to translating and championing Karpilove’s work\, will explore the author’s barbed criticism of turn-of-the-century Yiddish societal expectations around gender and sexuality.

It will highlight the place of handcraft in the cultural diplomacy between Mexico and the United States during the sixties and bring to the fore two international exhibitions. \nDr. Dorotinsky currently serves as the project leader for Popular Arts\, an effort to create a network of scholars both in Latin American and elsewhere whose work deals with contemporary Latin American art and specifically “popular” art objects\, i.e. crafts and diseño artisanal. The purpose of the project is to critique and revise accepted categories (as well as definitions\, terms\, etc.) of these objects. Dr. Dorotinsky and her colleagues argue that these categories are politically contingent\, often exploitative\, and troublingly institutionalized.

Déo Cardoso\nBased on real events\, this political drama fuses Brazilian history with international anti-racist movements. Saulo\, a black introvert student and fan of the Black Panther Movement\, challenges his school in the largely white city of Fortaleza. \nMIRIAM MIENTE (MIRIAM LIES)\nDominican Republic\, Spain\, 2018\, 90 min\, Dirs. Natalia Cabral and Oriol Estrada\nThe first dramatic feature by documentary duo Natalia Cabral and Oriol Estrada centers on a quinceañera celebration and shows how racial prejudices affect a teenage girl’s choices. \nPIROTECNIA (MUTE FIRE)\nColombia\, 2020\, 83 min\, Dir. Federico Atehortúa Arteaga\nIn the tradition of Harun Farocki and João Moreira Salles\, in this personal film essay\, Federico Atehortúa Arteaga examines the relationship between film footage\, the events of the war in Colombia\, his family’s story\, and the origins of cinema in the country.\nOn March 6\, 1906\, four people were executed in the streets for the attempted assassination of the then-president of Colombia\, Rafael Reyes. The representation in images of this event is considered the beginning of cinema in Colombia. Arteaga embarks on a deep investigation of media representation through his film\, which explores how cinema became an instrument of power and control in the country’s violent political history.\nAs Arteaga’s mother suffers an episode of mutism -without any explanation she stops talking-\, the film’s focus widens to examine the family’s own relationship with imagery\, memory\, and politics. As a result\, Arteaga decides to investigate the family’s past and finds a video archive of a children’s play in which he himself acts\, pretending to be a captured false guerrilla.\nThese images bring him back to his original film and lead him to find the relationship that exists between recent tragic events in Colombian history\, the false positives\, innocent people extrajudicially killed by members of the Colombian army\, and then falsely labeled as enemy combatants. Nobody knows exactly how many young people became false positives. The most recent report released by Colombia’s attorney general’s office says that between 1988 and 2014\, around 2\,248 people were killed. Previous reports by human rights organizations have estimated that the number may be 5\,000 or even higher. \nEL PERRO QUE NO CALLA (THE DOG WHO WOULDN’T BE QUIET)\nArgentina\, 2020\, 73 min\, Dir. Ana Katz\nAcclaimed Argentine auteur Ana Katz’s funny\, adventurous\, and bittersweet new film follows Sebastian’s peaceful life as it begins to crumble when he loses his job because of his dog’s barking. From that moment on\, he begins to wander through life between different temporary jobs over the years. Years in which he will also know friendship\, love\, and fatherhood\, until\, unexpectedly\, existence on earth is totally altered by a phenomenon from outer space\, transforming the film into a dystopian satire about the future we will leave to new generations. \nNudo Mixteco\nMexico\, 2021\, 91 min\, Dir. Ángeles Cruz\nTaking place in a rural Mixtec village in Oaxaca\, southern Mexico\, Nudo Mixteco follows the return of María\, Esteban\, and Toña\, each from a different direction. Each of them has a different reason for coming back\, just like each had a different reason to leave in the first place. However\, all three face a confrontation that will force a turning point in their lives.\nMaría buries her mother\, her father rejects her\, and in uncertainty\, she asks her childhood love\, Piedad\, to leave with her. Esteban returns after three years to discover that Chabela\, his wife\, is living with another man. Enraged he calls the village people to prosecute her in an assembly. Toña\, faced with her daughter’s abuse\, relives her own pain when she returns to confront her family to protect her.\nNarrated from the point of view of the women\, the three stories momentarily intersect with each other and together paint an exceptional picture of the local culture\, in which filmmaker Ángeles Cruz herself grew up. Festivities\, rituals\, and a village council that acts as a tribunal – these elements make up the fabric of a community that should offer protection\, warmth\, and security. However\, the fates of the three protagonists will reveal a constant fight against age-old patriarchal power and prejudice.

Through the use of technologies such as VR and motion capture\, recent performances have disrupted the primacy of co-presence in theater. This talk revisits performances from the mid-Showa Period (1925-1989) in Japan by influential figures in Modern Japanese theater including Senda Koreya\, Murayama Tomoyoshi\, and Terayama Shuji. Nearly a century ago\, these productions foreshadowed contemporary technological advancements and provide a historical context for our current moment’s techno-optimism. They utilized film\, radio\, and other technologies to create performances that wrestled with the mediating function of technology and the centrality of the body in performance. By examining these productions\, this talk proposes a way beyond the dichotomy of liveness and mediation\, leading to a deeper understanding of the relationship between technology and performance in contemporary theater. \nPresented by UWM professor of Japanese Aragorn Quinn.

The results are syncretic aesthetics that reveal both harmony and tension in interpersonal connection. As portals to other realms\, objects are conduits by which people and communities transcend the physical sphere to spiritual realms. With more than 40 objects in the exhibition\, the curators assert that while objects might seem inanimate\, they are powerful agents in connecting beings in the material and spiritual worlds. \nThe show is open December 8 through March 31\, Mondays through Thursdays from 10 am to 4 pm. Opening reception is Thursday\, December 8 from 5 to 7 pm. Free and open to the public.

Before his evening concert\, he records a program for French television. The rushes that have been preserved show us a Thelonious Monk who is rare\, close\, and in the grip of the violent factory of stereotypes from which he tries to escape. The film becomes the crossing of this great artist\, who would like to exist only for his music. And the portrait of a hollow media machine as ridiculous as it is revolting. \n(Alain Gomis\, France\, Germany\, French and English w/Eng subs\, 65 min\, 2022\, DCP) \nFree and open to the public.

He uses ethnography and autoethnography to study the everyday interactions that make up our lives\, enact our identities\, and create LGBTQ+ experiences. \nDr. Adams’ presentation: \nThere are many popular sayings about the consequentiality of everyday relational affairs. There’s the quote attributed to Margaret Mead: “Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful\, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed\, it’s the only thing that ever has.” And the aphorism credited to Aesop: “No act of kindness\, no matter how small\, is ever wasted.” There are those inspirational memes: “Some stranger somewhere remembers you because you were kind to them\,” “Someone heard a song that reminded them of you\,” and “You knew the other for only a short time but they changed your life for the better.” And there’s the “butterfly effect\,” the concept that suggests even the slightest act can motivate infinite iterative and compounding acts. \nIn this lecture\, Dr. Tony Adams will demonstrate the consequentiality of our everyday relational affairs. He will focus specifically on mundane queer encounters—moments of meeting that reference same-gender attraction and LGBQ+ identities and/or challenge heteronormative expectations about when\, where\, how\, and with whom intimacy can occur. Throughout\, he will show how we can\, knowingly and unknowingly\, change someone with our words and deeds. He pays homage to social interactions that\, at the time they occurred\, may have felt trivial and unremarkable yet now\, upon reflection\, feel formative and momentous. In so doing\, he illustrates the potential iterative and compounding impact of what we say and don’t say\, do and don’t do. \nEvent includes Q&A and a reception (with tea and snacks!).

At just eight years old\, Tina watched her father murdered in cold blood. Now a teenager\, she terrorizes her hometown of Gela\, having made it her mission to join the mafia\, an organization traditionally forbidden to women as made members. Nicknamed ’a masculidda\, or “the tomboy\,” Tina has taken charge of her own gang\, and is notorious for her cruelty and reckless disregard for societal expectations. \nPickering-Iazzi’s translation offers a fascinating look into a specific moment in queer history: a crypto-trans narrative set in a time when Italian society was incredibly conservative. A beautiful translation of a landmark literary achievement by one of Italy’s feminist icons. \nRobin Pickering-Iazzi is author of “The Mafia in Italian Lives and Literature: Life Sentences and Their Geographies” and translator of work such as the novel “Suspicion” by Laura Grimaldi and “Mafia and Outlaw Stories in Italian Life and Literature”. \nPreregistration requested and you can order a copy of “Tina\, Mafia Soldier” too. https://www.eventbrite.com/e/robin-pickering-iazzi-translator-of-tina-mafia-soldier-a-boswell-event-tickets-491821680887 URL:https://uwm.edu/letters-science/event/mafia-literature-a-discussion-of-tina-mafia-soldier/ LOCATION:Boswell Book Company\, 2559 North Downer Avenue\, Milwaukee\, WI\, 53211\, United States CATEGORIES:Arts and Culture,Lectures Conferences and Symposiums,UWM Campus Events X-TRIBE-STATUS: GEO:43.0651784;-87.8782958 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Boswell Book Company 2559 North Downer Avenue Milwaukee WI 53211 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=2559 North Downer Avenue:geo:-87.8782958,43.0651784 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20230307T113000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20230307T130000 DTSTAMP:20260519T031247 CREATED:20230201T190602Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230201T190602Z UID:10013973-1678188600-1678194000@uwm.edu SUMMARY:Trauma-Informed Teaching Workshop DESCRIPTION:Help students achieve essential learning outcomes through a balance of flexibility and accountability\, high standards and care for students.

Picture longtime friends attending a Backstreet Boys reunion concert as adults. For better or worse\, reboots\, remakes\, and revivals are now a standard media industry practice. New modes of distribution and exhibition have further changed fans’ abilities to encounter or re-encounter media texts. Bridget Kies (’18 English PhD) and Megan Connor (’15 English MA) offer one of the first close studies of fan generations\, looking at how these generations are influenced by and\, in turn\, influence technologies\, industry practices\, and social and political changes. \nBridget Kies is assistant professor of Film Studies and Production at Oakland University\, where she also serves on the executive committee for the Women and Gender Studies program. Her research on sexualities and media fandoms has been published in the journals Feminist Media Histories\, Science Fiction Film and Television\, Journal of Popular Romance Studies\, Transformative Works and Cultures\, and Intensities\, as well as several edited collections. With Megan Connor\, she is co-editor of Fandom\, the Next Generation (2022). She has also co-edited issues of Queer Studies in Media and Popular Culture and Participations. She is currently writing a book about the enduring popularity of Murder\, She Wrote. \nMegan Connor received her PhD from Indiana University’s Media School\, where she now serves as research coordinator at the Institute for Communication Research. Her research examines girls’ media\, celebrity\, and fandom. Her dissertation used an archive of teen magazines such as Seventeen and Teen Vogue to explore the construction and promotion of celebrity girlhood in the 2000s as an idealized form of youthful femininity. With Bridget Kies\, Megan is co-editor of Fandom\, the Next Generation (2022). Her work has been published in The Black Girlhood Studies Collection (2019) and the journal Black Camera\, where she also served as managing editor for several years.

We are highlighting various undergraduate students’ multidisciplinary research on issues that challenge racial oppression. Snacks and beverages will be provided for attendees. \nThe conference features Keynote Speaker and Rufus King High School alumnus\, Adam Carr (he/him)\, Milwaukee Historian and story-collector\, whose community-minded research chronicles Milwaukee’s history that exists in the margins. Carr got his start exploring Milwaukee’s history at 88Nine Radio Milwaukee\, where he served as a producer for three years and featured 800 stories — many of which provided direct testimonies of liberation and triumph from Milwaukee’s BIPOC community. Since his time at 88Nine\, Carr continues to chronicle Milwaukee’s people’s history\, to bring context to the social issues affecting us all today. Carr provides personal tours of our city\, which privileges stories oftentimes overlooked by traditional historians. His work has been featured at Milwaukee Film Festival\, and recognized in various publications\, like Milwaukee Journal Sentinal\, On Milwaukee\, Urban Milwaukee\, Shepherd Express\, and more. \nMKE101: Interpreting stories of freedom in Milwaukee\nIf Milwaukee’s story were a bookshelf\, many of our most important stories have yet to be published. This has led too many of us to accept overly simplistic narratives about the city\, while others deem the moment too complex to penetrate. We need to do better.\nIn this session\, we will build a foundational narrative for understanding Milwaukee\, then explore how lessons from our shared history can propel us towards a better future. In particular\, we will touch on three canonical stories in Milwaukee’s movement history: the Open Housing Marches\, Chapman Hall Takeover and origins of Milwaukee’s Indian Community School. We will engage with each of these remarkable stories\, then consider the community infrastructure and collaboration that was required in each case. Be prepared to draw\, diagram and even move (no special skills required). \nSchedule:\n11:30a – 1:00p — Adam Carr\, Keynote\n1:15p – 2:00p — Onisha Dale\, Ian Schmitt\, Liz Karpowitz\n2:00p – 2:30p — Alejandra Gonzalez & Samawia Akhter\n2:40p – 3:10p — Jo Fox & Ronan Carpenter\n3:20p – 3:50p — Maddi Kalous & Owen Geurts\nMC’d by Mia Heredia\, Honors Equity Team Graduate Mentor and Student Association President. \nPlease note\, due to the sensitive nature of the Undergraduate Research Conference\, some topics featured in presentations will heavily feature topics of systemic\, racial oppression and other\, intersecting issues of race. \nAccessibility & Other Questions:\nPlease email honors-antiracism@uwm.edu for accessibility requests (interpreting services\, wheelchair accommodations\, etc.) or any questions\, comments\, or concerns related to the conference.

She will trace how this new generation has been making their own rules and claiming their space in a traditionally male-dominated industry. Her analysis will focus on the socially and politically engaged aspects of their work\, concentrating especially on how they approach issues related to women. She will demonstrate that comics as a medium are able to articulate and disseminate feminist perspectives in new ways\, and that artists (such as Pénélope Bagieu and Emma\, among others) are having a real-life impact\, as the lines become more and more blurred between the individual and the artist via social media. \nCynthia Laborde is an assistant professor of modern languages at the University of Texas at Arlington. She holds a PhD from the University of Iowa (2015) and an MA in language\, literature and translation from UWM (2010). \nThis event is partially funded by the U.S. Department of Education Title VI NRC Grant. \nThis event will be followed later in the day by the opening film of the 26th annual UWM Festival of Films in French\, February 17-26\, 2023.

The results are syncretic aesthetics that reveal both harmony and tension in interpersonal connection. As portals to other realms\, objects are conduits by which people and communities transcend the physical sphere to spiritual realms. With more than 40 objects in the exhibition\, the curators assert that while objects might seem inanimate\, they are powerful agents in connecting beings in the material and spiritual worlds. \nFollowing opening night on Dec. 8\, the show remains open through March 31\, Mondays through Thursdays from 10 am to 4 pm.

He is the author of twenty-two books\, including histories of Milwaukee-area neighborhoods\, industries\, and places of worship. Gurda’s most ambitious efforts are The Making of Milwaukee\, the first full-length history of the community published since 1948; and Milwaukee: City of Neighborhoods\, a geographic companion that has quickly become the standard work on grassroots Milwaukee. Together the books total more than 900 pages and feature 2\,000 illustrations. The Making of Milwaukee was the basis for an Emmy Award-winning documentary series that premiered on Milwaukee Public Television in 2006. \nIn addition to his work as an author\, Gurda is a lecturer\, tour guide\, and local history columnist for the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. His undergraduate degree is a BA in English from Boston College\, and he holds an MA in Cultural Geography and an honorary Ph.D. from the UWM. The common thread in all of Gurda’s work is an understanding of history as “why things are the way they are.” \nProfessor Charlie Paradis\, Department of Geosciences\, emcees and hosts.

In this talk\, I will present a generalization of the Robinson-Schensted-Knuth algorithm to the insertion of two-row arrays of multisets. This generalization leads to new enumerative results that have representation-theoretic interpretation as decomposition of centralizer algebras and the spaces they act on. I will also present a variant of this algorithm for diagram algebras that has the remarkable property that it is well-behaved with respect to restricting a representation to a subalgebra. \nRefreshments to follow.

Such a system was said to be completely integrable. Using symplectic geometry\, we can generalize the notion of an integrable system beyond the realm of physics and into Lie theory and representation theory. Such “abstract” integrable systems can be used to geometrically construct infinite dimensional representations of Lie algebras. \nIn this talk\, I will discuss a family of integrable systems\, the Gelfand-Zeitlin systems\, that arise from purely linear algebraic data. For an nxn complex matrix X\, we consider the eigenvalues of all the ixi submatrices in the top left hand corner of X. These are known as Ritz values and play an important role in numerical linear algebra. We will see how questions about Ritz values naturally lead to the construction of the Gelfand-Zeitlin integrable systems. I will explain results about the geometric properties of these systems and indicate how they answer questions of Parlett and Strang about Ritz values. I will also show how this research provides the foundation for the geometric construction of a category of infinite dimensional representations of certain classical Lie algebras using the theory of quantization.

The talk\, titled “Indigenous Art as Revisioning and Unsettling Colonial Enclosure\,” will examine the ways in which art and poetic practices can revision our spaces and provide new anti-colonial tools. Rethinking colonial spatial philosophies must include our mind’s eye so that we can reimagine a just world. Settler environmental control is often invisible in its scaffolding of power\, by revisioning we expose its superstructure and hopefully build new sightlines which account for colonial and racial injustice. Goeman will explore the work of video poems\, or “poemeos”\, as Heid Erdrich calls them and speak to the various role of artist and poets to create new avenues that structure healthier relationships.

A public forum\, sponsored by the League of Women Voters of Milwaukee County and UWM Women’s & Gender Studies\, presents the pilot episode of a documentary series on this topic\, along with a diverse panel of younger “dangerous women” changemakers. \nPanelists include: Lauren Feaster\, the CEO of Professional Dimensions\, the leading women’s professional association in the Milwaukee area; Arvina Martin\, the first Native person ever elected to Madison’s Common Council\, and now the Executive Director of Emerge Wisconsin\, which recruits and trains women to run for public office; Marcelia Nicholson\, the first Black woman and Latina elected as Chairwoman of the Milwaukee County Board of Supervisors\, recently re-elected for her second term. \nAn audience Q&A will follow the panel\, along with refreshments and the opportunity for informal interaction with the panelists. Continuing the League of Women Voters’ century-long efforts to ensure voting rights\, League of Women Voters members will staff a voter registration table. \nThe Most Dangerous Women series of documentary shorts is a project of Milwaukee-based New Moon Productions\, under the direction of Janet Fitch. It presents the stories of women changemakers\, and invites viewers to discover and document women in their own families\, communities\, and regions working towards a more just and equitable world. The pilot episode begins in 1869\, when Wyoming becomes the only territory in the world to specifically recognize women’s right to vote and to hold elected office\, a full 50 years before passage of the Nineteenth Amendment.

Right-wing comedy has been hiding in plain sight\, finding its way into mainstream conservative media through figures ranging from Fox News’s Greg Gutfeld to libertarian podcasters like Joe Rogan. \nSelected as a 2022 Best Comedy Book by Vulture\, That’s Not Funny taps interviews with conservative comedians and observations of them inaction. You may find many of these comedians appalling\, some very funny\, and others just plain weird. They are all\, however\, culturally and politically relevant as the American right attempts to seize spaces of comedy and irony previously held firmly by the left.

We will look at the existence and construction of graphs which are not trees but share eigenvalues with some tree (these are the “spectral faux trees” and examples where we “cannot hear the shape of a tree”).

The lecture is for a general audience and advanced math knowledge is not required – it is designed to explore a fascinating aspect of math. \nThe lecture portion of the event is from 2 to 3 followed by a reception in EMS E495. \nProfessor Amie Wilkinson from the University of Chicago will address the mathematics of déjà vu. Dynamics is an area of mathematics concerned with the motion of spaces (“dynamical systems”) over time. Dynamics has its roots in the late nineteenth century\, when it was developed as a tool to understand physical phenomena\, such as the motion of gas molecules in a box and planets around the sun. A simple and yet powerful concept in dynamics is that of recurrence. In everyday language\, recurrence is the mathematical version of déjà vu: a motion of a space is recurrent if\, given enough time\, it eventually returns to its original configuration (allowing for a small amount of error). In this talk\, I will describe how mathematical results about recurrence can be used to answer surprisingly disparate questions\, from the mixing and unmixing of two ideal gases in a box\, to deep properties of the prime numbers\, to the discovery of exoplanets in nearby solar systems. \nThe Marden Lecture honors Morris Marden (1905 – 1991)\, who founded UWM’s graduate math program and made the department a research department.
