Ensuring Fairness and Respect in the Workplace
University Events
Fairness is something we all care about - professionally and personally. Research shows that even when we set out with the best intentions, people sometimes make decisions influenced by patterns they didn't choose and may not notice. This training takes a candid, judgment-free look at how those patterns develop, where they show up at work, and what we can do about them. Participants leave with a clearer understanding of how bias operates in the workplace — and practical tools to make more intentional, fair decisions in their everyday work.

Stochastic thermodynamics of active matter: Designing single-particle engines
Stochastic thermodynamics describes the behavior of small systems coupled to
a heat bath, where fluctuations are not only significant but easily observable.
One of the applications is the description of single colloidal-particle
engines - microscopic analogues of classical heat engines. Recently, the
ideas of stochastic thermodynamics have been extended to active matter:
particles that consume energy to produce directed motion. Their inherent
non-equilibrium nature allows for the design of novel microscopic engines
that cannot be realized with thermal particles. In this talk, I will
introduce the foundations of stochastic thermodynamics, microscopic engines, and
standard models for active particles. Then, I will present an active-particle-based
information engine that extracts work from a single particle using measurement
feedback. I will show that optimal work-extraction protocols can be determined by
training a neural…

CMBC LECTURE | Marion Thain "Attention Studies: Configuring a New 'Interdisciplinary Discipline'"
CMBC
Attention Studies: Configuring a New 'Interdisciplinary Discipline'
Distraction is experienced as one of the key challenges of our time. Digital distractions have been blamed for everything up to and including the destruction of democracy. How can universities rise to the challenge of providing a research base for exploring the concept of attention? Every discipline studies attention in some form or another. Psychology, neurobiology and psychiatry study systems of attention within the brain and the person. Social science, and humanities disciplines study the politics, sociologies and cultural workings of attention. The arts explore how different art forms manipulate attention differently and for different ends. All of these disciplines use radically different methodologies in their exploration of attention and all explore different facets of the same attention system. So, what happens if we try to bring all of this together to articulate a new 'interdisciplinary discipline' of Attention Studies, capable of…

The Art of Presence: A Workshop Series in Contemplative Performance
Art History
In an era of hyper-acceleration, the most radical act we can take is to slow down, listen, and respond through movement from a place of genuine interiority. This series of workshops uses the body to focus and center thoughts, an invitation to step into a sanctuary of time and rediscover the power of presence.
Over three sessions, join Héctor Alvarez, interdisciplinary artist and assistant teaching professor in Theater Studies, to learn how to connect mindfulness and creative expression.
Tuesday, September 1, Session 1: Deep Listening
Inspired by composer Pauline Oliveros's philosophy that "listening is the basis of all culture," this session focuses on expanding our ability to listen in every possible way to everything possible to hear.
Tuesday, September 8, Session 2: Slow Tempo
By decelerating movement to its threshold, we will heighten kinesthetic awareness and let imagery activate the senses.

Lecture: "Reclaiming the Heart and Method of Methodism"
University Events
What if the heart of Methodist identity is not found primarily in doctrine, polity, or tradition, but in a way of living the gospel that is both deeply rooted and boldly engaged?
This lecture explores the relationship between Wesleyan Vile-tality—the courageous willingness to go wherever God calls for the sake of the gospel—and the Wesleyan Practical Quadrilateral, a framework that emphasizes field preaching, micro-communities, social engagement, and leadership activation as the enduring practices of Methodist renewal.
Drawing from the lives of John Wesley and generations of Methodist witnesses, participants will discover how these complementary concepts offer a practical roadmap for revitalizing the church in the twenty-first century. Rather than preserving Methodism as a historical tradition, this session invites the church to reclaim it as a living movement.

September 23 at 7:30 p.m. in White Hall 208
1991 | Run Time: 132 min. | DCP
Directed by Spike Lee
Introduced by Dr. Mikal Gaines (Massachusetts College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences)
Spike Lee’s Jungle Fever explores interracial coupling (specifically the black-white version of it), the devastation of drug use in Black communities, class status both within and outside of race, and gender roles. The film opens with a tribute to Yusef Hawkins, a young Black teen murdered in 1989.
On August 23, 1989, 16-year-old Hawkins went to look for a used car in the Bensonhurst area of Brooklyn, New York with three of his friends. A mob of about 30 youths approached them, most of them carrying bats. However, one was carrying a gun. This mob of mostly white Italian-Americans were angry because one of their girlfriends invited a Black boy to her eighteenth birthday party. Thinking Hawkins and his friends were there for the party, they beat them with bats and shot Hawkins dead.…

“Come Hell or High Water: Languages and the Wantable Future”
University Events
All bets are off. What we thought was true about language teaching, the funding of it, the purpose of it—none of it is clear or confident anymore. And currently no institution — not the university, not the government, not the AI lab — is building a wantable future for languages in the plural, nor for the people who speak them. What persists is a defensive hodgepodge that desiring students have to sift through: internationalization plans that use languages as STEM-adjacent polish, funding whiplash from Washington, and a technology sector pouring billions into linguistic data management while remaining structurally incapable of cultivating a single multilingual human being. This talk names the impending destitution and argues it is not inevitable. Drawing on a collective, cross-institutional Strategic Plan for Languages now in progress, it asks what a wantable linguistic future is— not the future we're likely to get if we stay on the current track, but the one worth building toward, come hell or high water.

But when city leaders announce plans for “Cop City,” a massive police training facility that would clearcut one of Atlanta’s last forests, Jackie joins a sprawling grassroots resistance movement to protect the land and people. In doing so she reveals the overlooked pattern of environmental racism while confronting polluters, bureaucrats, and systemic neglect in the American South.

The Emory Cinematheque Presents: Crooklyn
Film & Media
The Emory Cinematheque Presents: Crooklyn
October 7 at 7:30 p.m. in White Hall 208
1994 | 115 min. | DCP
Introduced by Dr. Nsenga Burton (Virginia State University) and Professor Dehanza Rogers (Emory University)
“Imagine sitting on the stoop of your Brooklyn brownstone, gossiping with the neighbors while kids play hop-scotch in the street and jump rope on the sidewalk. That's the urban community Spike Lee recreates in Crooklyn, a funny, high-energy movie about Carolyn and Woody Carmichael, and their five kids.” (Network Journal)
Crooklyn is a presumed semi-autobiographical tale of Shelton ‘Spike’ Lee’s family as told through a young girl, presumably his sister Joie Lee who co-wrote it with him along with their brother Cinque Lee. This is the second film in which Lee centers a female protagonist, the first being She’s Gotta Have It. Cinematographer Arthur Jaffa lenses this beautiful film that moves from the idyllic summer days of 1970s Brooklyn to the heat of the Black Virginia south.

Rethinking Stewardship Symposium: Ethics and Creative Problem Solving in Museum Deaccessioning
Art History
The ethics of deaccessioning objects from art museum collections has gained increasing urgency as museums confront tight finances, burgeoning collections, changing collecting priorities and evolving institutional missions that extend beyond collection-centered stewardship to broader community engagement.
Should museums be permitted to deaccession objects? What purpose does deaccessioning serve, and does it strengthen or undermine the long-term value of museums? Should proceeds from the sale of deaccessioned objects be allowed to fund new buildings, support staff or acquire new works? When donor intent conflicts with an institution’s most pressing needs, which should take precedence? How does deaccessioning objects impact the reputations of living artists?

In Motion
What happens when a musical idea is set in motion? It can gather momentum, splinter, get stuck, transform, or return sounding completely different. You can get lost in the repetition, accessing a meditative state. ‘In Motion’ brings together four works that play with repetition, memory and physical gesture – music that asks the performers not simply to count time, but to inhabit a unique space together.
