SUMMARY:2024 Morris Fromkin Memorial Lecture
DESCRIPTION:This lecture will be presented simultaneously in person and virtually. The Zoom link is here. \nThe 2024 Morris Fromkin Memorial Lecture will be presented by Nan Kim (Associate Professor\, UWM Department of History). \nWhat can offer resources for hope at a time of escalating ecological crisis and alarming nuclear dangers? This talk argues for approaching this question by looking to the historical and contemporary legacies of two vital public intellectuals: Rachel Carson (1907–1964) and Jonathan Schell (1943-2014). Credited with inspiring the modern environmental movement and the nuclear-disarmament movement respectively\, Rachel Carson’s Silent Spring (1962) and Jonathan Schell’s The Fate of the Earth (1982) were both landmark bestsellers of their time and remain exemplars of moral clarity as powerful interventions concerning critical issues of sweeping real-world impact. \nThis project explores the work of these authors as models of research-based interventions which helped to galvanize collective action for bringing about transformative change in the face of pressing global challenges\, despite profound uncertainty about the future. The talk also revisits the far-reaching influence of these authors’ writings as testament to the power of poetic language for overcoming paralysis and creating a renewed sense of urgency in response to ethical questions of intergenerational social justice. \n\nAbout the speaker: \nNan Kim\, Ph.D.\, is Associate Professor of History & Co-Director of Public History at UWM as well as an Affiliated Professor of Anthropology. She serves as Faculty Lead/PI for the Working Group on STS (Science & Technology Studies) at the Center for 21st Century Studies and is Core Faculty in the Graduate Programs in Public History and Museum Studies. Kim is also the Regional Editor for Korea on the Editorial Board for the journal Critical Asian Studies.  \nHer recent publications include “A New Kind of Tinderbox on the Korean Peninsula” in Current History (September 2024) and “South Korea’s Nuclear-Energy Entanglements and the Timescales of Ecological Democracy” in Forces of Nature: New Perspectives on Korean Environments\, edited by David Fedman\, Eleana Kim\, and Albert L. Park\, eds.\, and published by Cornell in 2023. \nKim’s book\, Memory\, Reconciliation\, and Reunions in South Korea: Crossing the Divide\, published by Lexington Books in 2017\, was the winner of the 2019 Scott Bills Memorial Prize from the Peace History Society. \nPlease contact libspecial@uwm.edu for more information and accommodations. \n

SUMMARY:Introduction to OER Adoption Virtual Workshop 
DESCRIPTION:This virtual workshop on Friday\, October 18 from 12:00-1:30 pm will introduce faculty to open textbooks — a type of open educational resource (OER) — and the benefits these textbooks offer: affordability\, pedagogical practice\, student learning\, and engagement. Faculty are then invited to engage with open textbooks by writing a brief review of a book in the Open Textbook Library. \nSeveral UWM courses use Open Textbooks\, removing textbook cost as a barrier to student success. For more information about UWM’s Open Textbook and OER initiative\, see the guide to Open Educational Resources. \nPlease register to attend. Participants are asked to select an open textbook for review. Instructors who complete the review process will be eligible for a $200 stipend.  Stipends are awarded as an S&E transfer from GPR/101 to GPR/101 lines only. \nRegister for the virtual workshop.  Please use this form to RSVP by Wednesday\, October 16. \nContact Kristin Woodward (kristinw@uwm.edu) for additional details or to request accommodations.

SUMMARY:Great Books Virtual Roundtable Discussion:  J. Hector St. John de Crèvecœur\, Letters from an American Farmer 
DESCRIPTION:J. Hector St. John de Crèvecœur\nSelected Letters from an American Farmer (1782)\nLetters I\, III\, IX\, XII \nNo expertise or prerequisites are required. We only ask that you read the selected texts. \nINSTRUCTIONS FOR THE ZOOM SESSION \nIf you think you will be attending the session\, please send Max Yela an email (maxyela@uwm.edu) about your intention to attend (even if you decide not to attend later). He will accept notices of intent until 5:00 p.m.\, Oct. 30. Between 6:30 and 6:45 on the day of our discussion\, Oct. 30\, you will receive an email from him with an automatic password-protected URL. Please use that URL to join the session (you will of course need to use a computer with a microphone and a video camera in it — if you want to be seen\, that is). When you join\, you will be placed in a waiting room that Max will be monitoring to allow attendees into the session. Only those he has emailed will be allowed into the session. This process is intended to maximize the security of the meeting. \nThese discussions are free and open to the public. \nPart of the purpose of the Great Books Roundtable Discussions is to illustrate the pedagogical method of shared inquiry. Another purpose is to disseminate an understanding and appreciation of the philosophy of great books education on the UWM campus. It was the assertion of the former Great Books Program that its methodology and philosophical approach toward the study of foreign languages\, mathematics\, history\, and great books offers a challenging\, meaningful\, and useful Liberal Arts education. \nSpecial Collections serves as host for the Roundtable Discussions in support of these educational goals. Special Collections’ programs\, services\, and policy of free\, open\, and equal access to all its collections have close affinities to the former Great Books Program’s vision of a vigorous Liberal Arts education and its method of shared inquiry. \nMore information on the program can be found on the Special Collections Great Books Roundtable Discussions webpage.
