Recognizing International Women's Day: OSUN Gender Equity Events Series

Runs through Monday, April 3, 2023

Online Event
The OSUN Gender Equity Working Group is hosting a series of online events during March, Women's History Month, that have been developed with the intent of raising the profile of gender-oriented issues and topics. All events seek to raise awareness and initiate conversations on a broad range of topics relating to gender equity. 

The purpose of the collective calendar is to raise awareness about gender equity-related happenings across OSUN and allow us all to engage with experts and practitioners on topics of shared concern throughout the month (and hopefully spark connections for sustained collaboration!).

All events on the shared calendar are open to all OSUN members. In addition to the calendar, there is a shared Padlet to capture events and happenings taking place on each campus to raise the visibility of how we're all recognizing International Women's Day (March 8) and the rest of Gender Equity month.

Access the calendar for full event details.
Access the Padlet for events on each campus.

EVENT CANCELED

Juggling, Refinements, and Symmetries for Volumes of Flow Polytopes
 

Alejandro Morales, University of Massachusetts

Wednesday, March 1, 2023
12–1 pm

RKC 111
Flow polytopes are an important class of polytopes in combinatorics whose lattice points and volumes have interesting properties and relations to other parts of geometric and algebraic combinatorics. These polytopes were recently related to (multiplex) juggling sequences of Butler, Graham, and Chung. The Chan-Robbins-Yuen (CRY) polytope is a flow polytope with normalized volume equal to the product of consecutive Catalan numbers, one of the most well-known sequences in combinatorics. Zeilberger proved this by evaluating the Morris constant term identity, but no combinatorial proof is known. In this talk we will talk about the connection between juggling and (flow) polytopes and introduce a new refinement of the Morris identity with combinatorial interpretations both in terms of lattice points and volumes of flow polytopes. 

Alejandro Morales is originally from Colombia and got his B.Math. from the University of Waterloo and a Ph.D. from MIT, working with Professor Alexander Postnikov. After postdocs at Université du Québec à Montréal and UCLA, he started a tenure-track position at UMass, Amherst where he is part of the Discrete Mathematics group. Morales works in enumerative and algebraic combinatorics and uses bijections, symmetric functions, and tools from algebra to study several objects including linearizations of posets, polytopes associated to graphs, and factorizations of permutations. Morales' research is funded by grants of the National Science Foundation and is a handling Editor of the mathematician owned journal Combinatorial Theory. You can see videos, slides, code, and conjectures of the work of Morales here: ahmorales.combinatoria.co

Conjunctions:79, Onword Launch Reading

Featuring Jai Chakrabarti, Peter Gizzi, Carole Maso, and Shane McCrae, introduced by Colin Channer

Wednesday, March 1, 2023
7 pm

McNally Jackson Seaport
Join us to celebrate the launch of Conjunctions:79, Onword! The evening will feature readings by contributors Jai Chakrabarti, Peter Gizzi, Carole Maso, and Shane McCrae, introduced by Colin Channer. 

The literary journal Conjunctions, edited by novelist Bradford Morrow and published by Bard College, has been a living notebook for provocative, risk-taking, rigorously composed fiction, poetry, and narrative nonfiction since 1981. As PEN America has it: “Conjunctions is one of our most distinctive and valuable literary magazines: innovative, daring, indispensable, and beautiful.”

Our Fall 2022 issue is a celebration of continuing both onward and Onword—on with Conjunctions, on with the words.

While this issue has no theme, what we’ve collected here could simply be described as “great writing by great writers.” And themes do, of course, emerge: Inside, you’ll find explorations of survival, migration, loss and renewal, as well as meditations on how to live with disappointment, how to reimagine and rebuild, and how to move onward through difficult existential terrains.

Conjunctions 79, Onword features new work from Fred Moten, Can Xue, John Crowley, Nathaniel Mackey, Sofia Samatar, Yxta Maya Murray, Russell Banks, Deb Olin Unferth, Rae Armantrout, G. C. Waldrep, Bonnie Nadzam, Vi Khi Nao, Carole Maso, Julia Alvarez, Fred D’Aguiar, and more, as well as three previously unpublished poems by C. D. Wright.

RSVP required at https://www.mcnallyjackson.com/conjunctions79-onword-launch-reading-Rsvp.

Judgment, Pluralism, and Democracy

On the Desirability of Speaking with Others

Thursday, March 2, 2023 – Friday, March 3, 2023

Multiple Locations (See below)
Free and Open to the Public!

**See full program below**

Keynote by Linda Zerilli (The University of Chicago): “Arendt and the Problem of Democratic Persuasion”
Stream the Keynote Lecture on YouTube


Organized by Nicholas Dunn (Bard College) and Nirvana Tanoukhi (Dartmouth College)

One of the latest features of the crisis of democratic culture is the problematization of free speech. The dysfunction of public discourse in democratic societies has sparked skepticism about the validity of the principle itself and concerns about its evident impracticability. This line of interrogation has targeted the grounds and scope of this putatively desirable freedom. For example, does Louis Brandeis’s idea that with “more speech…the truth will out” have any actual empirical validity? Or does the weaponizability of free speech in the age of the internet not call for modifying or restricting its legal protection?

This conference aims to expand the parameters of the current conversation by taking a step back from the desirability of unrestricted ‘freedom’ of expression and shifting critical attention to the desirability of ‘talking to others.’ For any case to be made in support or against free speech is, more fundamentally, a statement about whether the good of talking to others demands the protections that make it possible, be that demand conceived in moral, instrumental, or prudential terms. Sponsored by: Hannah Arendt Center; Human Rights Project; Philosophy Program; Politics Program.

The Institute of Advanced Theology Spring 2023 Lecture Series

"In Search of the Once and Future Eden" with Bruce Chilton

Thursday, March 2, 2023
5:30–6:30 pm

Bard Hall
This lecture series is in conjunction with the book launch of Eden Revisited: A Novel by László Z. Bitó ’60. You can find the recordings of past lectures on the IAT website. These lectures and their recordings are made possible by the generosity of a loyal donor.

Eden is both a place in the mythic past and the prospect for a balanced, ecological, and human civilization in the future. Gnostic writers in particular have portrayed how the idyllic garden could have been lost, and why regaining its richness has proven elusive. Laszlo Bito, a Bard alumnus from the class of 1960 investigated these issues in his book Eden Revisited. The series is designed to join in that quest, in order to press the issue of Eden’s deep promise.

All lectures will take place on Thursdays at 5:30 pm in Bard Hall. 

Thursday, February 23 - Cain: the first murder, the first city
Thursday, March 2 - The Serpent: Language unravels Eden
Thursday, March 9 - YHWH
Thursday, March 16 - Eden, the garden that exists over our horizonSponsored by: Institute of Advanced Theology.

**See full program below**

Keynote by Linda Zerilli (The University of Chicago): “Arendt and the Problem of Democratic Persuasion”
Stream the Keynote Lecture on YouTube


Organized by Nicholas Dunn (Bard College) and Nirvana Tanoukhi (Dartmouth College)

One of the latest features of the crisis of democratic culture is the problematization of free speech. The dysfunction of public discourse in democratic societies has sparked skepticism about the validity of the principle itself and concerns about its evident impracticability. This line of interrogation has targeted the grounds and scope of this putatively desirable freedom. For example, does Louis Brandeis’s idea that with “more speech…the truth will out” have any actual empirical validity? Or does the weaponizability of free speech in the age of the internet not call for modifying or restricting its legal protection?

This conference aims to expand the parameters of the current conversation by taking a step back from the desirability of unrestricted ‘freedom’ of expression and shifting critical attention to the desirability of ‘talking to others.’ For any case to be made in support or against free speech is, more fundamentally, a statement about whether the good of talking to others demands the protections that make it possible, be that demand conceived in moral, instrumental, or prudential terms. Sponsored by: Hannah Arendt Center; Human Rights Project; Philosophy Program; Politics Program.

Singing Exoplanets and the Unmapped Sky: The Joys and Challenges of Low Frequency Radio Astronomy

Mary Knapp, Massachusetts Institute of Technology

Friday, March 3, 2023
12–1 pm

Hegeman 107
We have maps of the sky across the electromagnetic spectrum - from high energy gamma rays through UV, optical, and infrared to radio frequencies.  One part of the spectrum is yet unexplored, however - very low frequency radio (< 10 MHz / 30 m).  This part of the spectrum is blocked by the Earth's ionosphere and is challenging to observe due to its very long wavelengths.  If we could access the low frequency radio sky, we could look back in time to the cosmological Dark Ages, study the plasma and magnetic fields that fill the spaces between stars, track solar storms as they barrel toward Earth, and listen for the radio signatures of exoplanetary magnetic fields. In this talk, I'll discuss low frequency radio science and past, present, and future efforts to build telescopes that can observe the low frequency sky.  I will describe the AERO-VISTA mission, which will map Earth's auroral radio environment.  I will also discuss future telescope concepts on the Moon and in space that seek to unveil this hidden part of the EM spectrum.Sponsored by: Physics Program.

Looking Back, Looking Forward: Documenting Trans Family Life

Featuring Krys Belc

Monday, March 6, 2023
5 pm

Olin Language Center, Room 115
An Autonomies Series Event

This lecture will focus on the nature of the family archive and its relation to queer and trans liberation and creativity. Parenting is, in the contemporary era, inherently documentary. Parents and other family members tell stories, take pictures, and, increasingly, tell their family story publicly. How can queer and trans artists reckon with archives their families have left behind, and what might ethical documentation of family life look like with queerness at the forefront of the documenter’s mind?

Krys Malcolm Belc is the author of the flash nonfiction chapbook In Transit and the memoir The Natural Mother of the Child, which was a New York Times New and Noteworthy title and an NPR Best Book of the Year. His essays have been published in Granta, Guernica, The Rumpus, Brevity, and elsewhere. Krys received his BA from Swarthmore College, his M.Ed in Special Education from Arcadia University, and his MFA in Creative Writing from Northern Michigan University. Krys is the memoir editor of Split Lip Magazine. He lives in Philadelphia with his partner and their four young children.

Transnational Feminist Solidarity as Praxis: Angela Davis in Egypt

Tuesday, March 7, 2023
12–1:10 pm

Online Event
12 PM New York l 6 PM Vienna

The Transnational Feminism, Solidarity, and Social Justice lecture series continues with Sara Salem, who will focus a trip Angela Davis made to Egypt in the early 1980s to explore questions of transnational feminist solidarity and feminist difference. The emphasis on Marxism and feminism enabled Egyptian feminists to forge solidarity with women across the globe, including Angela Davis, who located gender oppression within the same structures—namely, capitalism and imperialism. Salem will demonstrate how the encounters Davis had with feminists during this trip reveal much about the workings of transnational feminism as praxis, as well as the possibilities of feminist solidarity that sees difference as productive rather than divisive.

Sara Salem is an Associate Professor in Sociology at the London School of Economics. Her research interests include postcolonial studies, Marxist theory, and global histories of anticolonialism. Her recently published book with Cambridge University Press is entitled Anticolonial Afterlives in Egypt: The Politics of Hegemony (2020).

The Political Theology of Sortition

with Archie Magno 

Tuesday, March 7, 2023
5:30–7 pm

Arendt Center

Liberal democratic institutions are undergoing a crisis of legitimacy due both to elitist and populist deviations. But such crises had been inherent in these institutions from their inception. Today, many authors suggest that we complement electoral democracy with sortition procedures, going back to the Ancient Greek concept of democracy by lottery. However, there is very little discussion of the ideological meaning of these procedures, except for their obvious practical advantages, in fairness and equality. This talk poses the question of their politico-theological origins and metaphysical connotations. A contrast is drawn between the theological presuppositions of election as opposed to sortition. Because of the different unconscious theological residues in these two methods, a potential reform towards sortition would also signify a tectonic shift in the forms of democratic legitimacy.Sponsored by: Hannah Arendt Center.

What Are the Challenges for Myanmar Women in Tech?

Wednesday, March 8, 2023
7:30–8:30 am

Online Event
7:30 AM New York l 1:30 PM Vienna l 7 PM Yangon

On International Women's Day, a research team led by Myo Thida (Parami University / CMU, Thailand) and Amanda Landi (Bard College at Simon’s Rock) will share findings from an important new survey on the challenges Myanmar women face in the tech sector.  

93 women were surveyed on their reasons for taking a career break, their career challenges, and their job search-related issues. One key finding from the research and data analytic project was that 74% of respondents cited "lack of mentorship" as a major challenge.

Individuals in the OSUN community are encouraged to attend and hear more about the survey findings.

Nonhuman Creativity : Artificial Imagination : Human Anticipation

Wednesday, March 8, 2023

Online Event
12 PM New York l 6 PM Vienna

Joanna Zylinska
, writer, artist and Professor of Media Philosophy + Critical Digital Practice at King’s College London, joins the Institute for Philosophy and Social Theory's (University of Belgrade) lecture series on The Future of AI: Social and Cultural Aspects. The series is organized by the Digital Society Lab [DigLab] of the Institute for Philosophy and Social Theory.

Drawing on her philosophical work and her art practice, Joanna Zylinska will interrogate whether we can actively mobilise nonhuman creativity as a way of opening up our all too human ways of thinking and acting. She will also explore whether AI, rooted as it is in the extractivitst logic of the tech industry, can overcome its own material conditions of existence. Could AI play the role of a philosopher-visionary that will show us a way out of the current socio-political impasse? Could it get beyond the limitations of our human frames of mind to imagine a different set of propositions and arrangements for us? Could it help us envisage a better future?

A Gentle Overview of Quantum Computing

James Marshall, Sarah Lawrence College

Wednesday, March 8, 2023
12–1 pm

RKC 111
Since the 1920s, physicists and philosophers have been trying to understand the strangeness of the subatomic world as revealed by quantum theory, but it wasn't until the 1980s that computer scientists first began to suspect that this strangeness might represent a source of immense computational power. This realization was soon followed by key theoretical advances, including the discovery of algorithms that harness the quantum phenomena of superposition and entanglement, enabling quantum computers in principle to solve certain problems far more efficiently than any conventional computer. Around the same time, researchers built the first working quantum computers, albeit on a very small scale. Today the multidisciplinary field of quantum computing lies at the intersection of computer science, mathematics, and physics, and is one of the most fascinating areas in science, with potentially far-reaching consequences for the future. In this talk I will give an overview of the basic mathematical ideas behind quantum computing, and use them to illustrate two particularly interesting results: the quantum search algorithm, and quantum teleportation.Sponsored by: Computer Science Program; Mathematics Program.

Stacey Vanek Smith: Women in the Workplace in the 21st Century

Wednesday, March 8, 2023
6–7:30 pm

Olin Language Center, Room 115
The Bard community is invited to join a discussion with Stacey Vanek Smith on women in the workplace in the 21st century, why in the age of #MeToo the glass ceiling is still holding women back, and how women can yield power.

Stacey Vanek Smith, host of Planet Money's Indicator podcast, is a long-time business and economic reporter for NPR. During her 15 years on the job, she noticed she was talking to more men than women. Why? More men occupied positions of authority and expertise. In Machiavelli for Women: Defend Your Worth, Grow Your Ambition, and Win the Workplace, Smith takes a look at the barriers blocking women’s advancement and offers advice to remove them – from 16th century Italian philosopher Niccolò Machiavelli.

Smith will be in discussion with Bard Globalization and International Affairs Program Director Elmira Bayrasli.

Sponsored by the Bard Globalization and International Affairs Program, the Center for Civic Engagement, Open Society University Network's Civic Engagement Initiative and Gender Equity Working Group

The Law of Existence

artist/curator Maha Maamoun in conversation with writer Haytham el-Wardany

Wednesday, March 8, 2023
6–8 pm

Olin, Room 102
How to find entry points in a brutal conversation? How to summon a community of voices to diffuse a deadlock? Maha Maamoun’s artistic practices often intertwine visual and literary images, both popular and obscure, in a process of reflection on the cultural and social fabric of present day Cairo. Her subtle intervention in image and text pick on redundancies, exhausted languages, recycled imagery - features that both reveal and calcify deep-rooted structures of meaning. In their conversation, artist Maha Maamoun and writer Haytham el-Wardany will elaborate on aspects of Maamoun’s artistic practice, bringing up common themes of conversationality, seriality, quotation and reading. 

Maamoun and el-Wardany are long-time collaborators. They have co-worked on different projects such as The Middle Ear (co-editors), How to Disappear (writer-publisher), and Dear Animal (writer-filmmaker).
Maha Maamoun is an Egyptian artist, curator, and publisher. She is a founding board member of the Contemporary Image Collective (CiC), an independent non-profit space for art and culture in Cairo (2004), and co-founder of Kayfa ta, an alternative publishing platform (2012).
Haytham el-Wardany lives and works in Berlin. He writes short stories and experimental prose. His most recent publication is Jackals And The Missing Letters: On Speaking Animals At Moments Of Danger (Dar Alkarma, 2023). He is the recipient of the Keith Haring Fellowship in Art and Activism (2022-23).

French Table

Please join us weekly. Stay for as long as you like.

Thursday, March 9, 2023
12:30–1:30 pm

Kline, College Room
Language tables are held at Kline and entail about an hour of casual discussion during meal times, where students interested in a language get to know each other and practice colloquial conversations. They are held by the tutor of the language, and although sometimes professors join the table, it is a very low-stakes and fun setting to immerse yourself in a language, its culture and the foreign language community at Bard.

The Institute of Advanced Theology Spring 2023 Lecture Series

"In Search of the Once and Future Eden" with Bruce Chilton

Thursday, March 9, 2023
5:30–6:30 pm

Bard Hall
This lecture series is in conjunction with the book launch of Eden Revisited: A Novel by László Z. Bitó ’60. You can find the recordings of past lectures on the IAT website. These lectures and their recordings are made possible by the generosity of a loyal donor.

Eden is both a place in the mythic past and the prospect for a balanced, ecological, and human civilization in the future. Gnostic writers in particular have portrayed how the idyllic garden could have been lost, and why regaining its richness has proven elusive. Laszlo Bito, a Bard alumnus from the class of 1960 investigated these issues in his book Eden Revisited. The series is designed to join in that quest, in order to press the issue of Eden’s deep promise.

All lectures will take place on Thursdays at 5:30 pm in Bard Hall. 

Thursday, February 23 - Cain: the first murder, the first city
Thursday, March 2 - The Serpent: Language unravels Eden

Militarization of the Past in Russian Popular Historical Cinema 

Thursday, March 9, 2023
5–7 am

Online Event
5 AM New York l 11 AM Vienna

Egor Isaev, Egor Isaev, documentary filmmaker and  Blinken Open Society Archives Doctoral Fellow, will present his research on the topic of "Militarization of the Past in Russian Popular Historical Cinema." 

The research project explores the representations of the past in contemporary Russian popular cinema and TV series. It is set within the fields of media studies and public history, and aims to analyze images and narratives through which the Soviet and imperial pasts have been (re)constructed in Russian media culture.  

Currently, Russia is torn by chauvinism, separatism, nostalgia for empire, and an unexamined historical trauma. The country produces a large number of popular war films intended to reconcile society with its history and set a militaristic vector for the future. After experiencing dislocation during the 1980s and 1990s, post-Soviet society has tried to find a new identity, one that considers history as its foundation. This research sheds light on how Russian society is represented in the cinema of the late Putin era and how these representations are often rooted in the past. 

The study focuses on historical films made in 2008–2014 and 2014–2020 (known as the second and third parts of Putin’s era). Several types of sources are analyzed: popular films that rewrite the histories of World War Two, the Brezhnev era, and Admiral Kolchak and the White Army.

Manuscript Discussion: "The Legends of Savarkar: The Making of Hindutva" by Janaki Bakhle

Discussion with Manan Ahmed (Columbia University), Nabanjan Maitra (Bard College), Rupali Warke (Bard College), and Sudipta Kaviraj (Columbia University)

Thursday, March 9, 2023
3 pm

Campus Center, Yellow Room 214
The growth and rise of the Hindu right wing in India have been an alarming reality for many in the country and abroad.  An ideology loosely labeled “Hindu fundamentalism” or “Hindutva” (Hindu-ness) that was not so many years ago seen as on the margins of Indian political and social life appears to have moved into the center of the world’s largest secular democracy.  Some Hindu fundamentalists have issued calls to expel all Muslims from India and teach only a true Hindu civilization history in schools.  Today, the right-wing Hindu nationalist party, the Bharatiya Janata Party, is in power, and threatening to do away with many of the secular and liberal protections India’s citizenry has come to take for granted.  How did a right wing ideology capture the hearts and minds of the same population that fifty years ago threw its support behind the stalwarts of liberal secular nationalism, such as Gandhi and Nehru? In such a situation one might perhaps look for a historical explanation in the historical scholarship on the main ideologue, political figure, and author of Hindu fundamentalism: Vinayak Damodar Savarkar (1883–1966). 

Janaki Bakhle has just completed her second book, on Vinayak Damodar Savarkar known as the chief ideologue of Hindu fundamentalism, and on the emergence of Hindu fundamentalism in late nineteenth-century India.  Bakhle is currently an Associate Professor in History at the University of California, Berkeley. Previously, she taught at Columbia University where she was also the Director of the South Asia Institute. Her research interests include the intellectual history of religion in India, Indian political history, Indian feminist history, nationalism, gender, and culture. Her first book, 'Two Men and Music: Nationalism, Colonialism and the Making of an Indian Classical Tradition' was published by Oxford University Press in 2005. 

Bakhle has a Ph.D. in History from Columbia University, an MA in History from the University of Pennsylvania, and a BA in Economics from the University of Bombay.Sponsored by: Asian Studies Program; Historical Studies Program; Interdisciplinary Study of Religions Program.

The Local and Global in Psychological Service: A Case of Crisis Center for Women in Post-Socialist Kyrgyzstan

Elena Kim, Psychology Program

Thursday, March 9, 2023
4–5:30 pm

Reem-Kayden Center Laszlo Z. Bito '60 Auditorium
What does psychological counseling look like in the Global South? What shapes professional practice in a post-Soviet country? How is psychological intervention regulated in contemporary Central Asia? Guided by these questions, I conducted a qualitative inquiry in a crisis center for women in Kyrgyzstan, making use of a feminist-inspired methodological tool of Institutional Ethnography (Smith, 1987; 2005).  In this presentation, I share my findings demonstrating how the global standards of human rights protection inform what happens in the offices of the Kyrgyz crisis psychologists as they carry out their frontline work with survivors of domestic violence.  I found that adherence to these global frameworks, through discourses and textual work, might be at odds with the women’s actual obtainment of protection. Puzzled by this contradictory outcome, I explored and analytically mapped the institutional processes and activities which accounted for it. Following the tradition of critical, international and feminist psychology, I hope to demonstrate how the mental health needs of the minority may be routinely overlooked even within programs with the most benevolent agendas.Sponsored by: Psychology Program.

Disorientation as Worship: A Different (Re)view of the Dura-Europos Synagogue

Karen Stern, Professor of History, Brooklyn College

Thursday, March 9, 2023
5:30 pm

Chapel of the Holy Innocents
The synagogue discovered in Dura Europos in 1932/1933 shocked archaeologists, scholars of ancient Syria, and students of ancient Jewish history. The interior fac;ade of the assembly hall of the building was preserved to an unprecedented degree, projecting color- ful paintings of stories from the Hebrew Bible, including images of Pharoah's daughter rescuing a baby Moses from a basket in the Nile. Existence of these murals both advanced the efforts of excavators and historians who sought to understand ancient life in Dura and transformed studies of art history more generally, by challenging a longstanding allegation that Jews, historically, were a "people without art." Scholars of past decades have followed suit, continuing to emphasize the paintings from the assembly hall at the expense of other documented findings from the synagogue. This talk, however, takes a different approach. By drawing renewed attention to additional artifacts from the building, including burial deposits, amuletic ceiling tiles, and ancient graffiti, it suggests that there is more to the synagogue than that which initially meets the eye.Sponsored by: Art History and Visual Culture Program; Classical Studies Program; Interdisciplinary Study of Religions Program; Middle Eastern Studies Program.

Funding Divides: How American Philanthropy Fostered (and Perhaps Could Heal) Social Tension

Thursday, March 9, 2023
6–7:30 pm

Online Event
6 PM New York l 12 AM Vienna

The Bard Center for the Study of Hate invites members of the OSUN community to attend a discussion by Lila Corwin Berman (Temple University), author of The American Jewish Philanthropic Complex: The History of a Multibillion-Dollar Institution. It’s a fascinating tour of how the Jewish philanthropic world developed, the relationship between communal goals and legal structures, and changes to philanthropy over the decades.
 
In this talk Berman will discuss how, in its ideal form, American philanthropy in general (not just Jewish philanthropy) serves the public good, but in practice it has often bred social, economic, and political divisions, even creating opportunities for hate. She will explore the historical development of this tension and asks what role philanthropy might play in reinvigorating a broad and capacious vision of the public.

The Tropical and Equatorial Atlantic Ocean has been well studied by physical oceanographers and meteorologists because of its importance to ocean circulation, deoxygenation, and rainfall in the Sahel but less is known about how the physics of this region controls biological processes.  The Tropical Atlantic is thought to have enhanced biological productivity and play an important role in global carbon flux - Longhurst (1993) estimated that the tropical Atlantic Ocean (10N – 10S) contributed more to global carbon fixation than the entire North Atlantic open ocean including the well-studied Spring Bloom.  The Equatorial upwelling process is widely accepted as being seasonal and is evident in satellite observations as lower monthly sea surface temperature and concomitant higher monthly chlorophyll concentrations between June and September of each year.  We will discuss the role of physical forcing factors such as the Amazon River outflow, the position of the Inter-Tropical Convergence Zone, and Tropical Instability Wave activity in controlling the availability of nutrients and consequently, the phytoplankton community structure from cruises we participated in this region.

Finding an Authentic Voice for an Ancient Poet: Translating Eugenius of Toledo
 

Graham Barrett, University of Lincoln, UK 
David Ungvary, Bard College

Friday, March 10, 2023
2–3:30 pm

Olin, Room 102
“Be present to us, You Holy One, loosen the muscles of our throats,
fill our mouths with articulate phrases, fill our hearts with tears…”
 
“Blubbery fat on his neck chokes off his pudgy gullet
and his horribly raspy voice loses its dulcet tones.”
 
These starkly different couplets were composed during the so-called “Dark Ages” by the same Latin poet: Eugenius of Toledo (d. 657 CE). Maybe. In this workshop, Professors Graham Barrett (University of Lincoln, UK) and David Ungvary (Bard) will expose participants to the challenges of locating an authentic “voice” in Eugenius’s verse, which has never before been rendered into English, but which, in the Middle Ages, was popular enough to inspire a host of imitators and pseudo-Eugenian posers. Together, those in the workshop will explore—partly through experiments in re-writing Eugenius—how various modes of translation may help (or hinder) attempts to find and animate the “true Eugenius,” a poet whose tone can range wildly from pious and reverent to just plain mean. All students and faculty interested in translation are encouraged to attend; no knowledge of Latin is necessary.

Academic Freedom in the Balance: Central European University and New College Florida 

Friday, March 10, 2023
3–4 pm

3 PM New York l 9 PM Vienna via Livestream

The OSUN Liberal Arts Collaborative, Bard College, Central European University's Democracy Institute (CEU), and Defending Educational Freedom for Youth (DEFY) are sponsoring a livestreamed conversation between Michael Ignatieff, former Rector and President of CEU, and student leaders from New College of Florida representing the activist group DEFY.

The discussion is an important opportunity for Ignatieff to discuss with New College student leaders the lessons learned from Hungarian Prime Minister Victor Orban’s assault on academic freedom in Hungary, including the expulsion of CEU. New College of Florida, a public liberal arts college, has recently been targeted by Florida Governor Ron DeSantis: half of its Board of Trustees has been replaced, its president dismissed, and new board members are threatening major changes to teaching and curricula, especially on issues pertaining to race and gender. In this context, New College can be seen as a microcosm of wider challenges to academic freedom taking place in Florida and across the US.

The talk will be moderated by Kyaw Moe Tun, head of the Open Society University Network’s Liberal Arts Collaborative based at Bard College and President of Parami University in Myanmar (now in exile).

Participants:
Michael Ignatieff, former President and Rector of CEU, 2016-2021, current Rector Emeritus and University Professor of History, CEU 
Student leaders from DEFY

Join the livestream via OSUN's YouTube channel

The Bill Mullen Recitation Contest

Friday, March 10, 2023
3–4 pm

Bard Hall
In Ancient Greece, professional performers of Homer were called Rhapsodes. Their job was to memorize Homeric poetry and perform it at festivals around Greece. Today we honor their tradition and that of Bill Mullen, a former professor of Classics and Rhetoric at Bard College.

The Contest

The Bill Mullen Recitation Contest is an annual in competition amongst Bard College and BHSEC Cleveland students. The recitation prize competition encourages the love of literature, the joy in oral recitation, the committing to memory of great poetry, the love of public speaking, and the agonal spirit, all of which are at the heart of how we remember Bill Mullen’s intellectual legacy. The Bill Mullen Recitation contest aims to expose students to, and perhaps instill a love for, the art of memorizing and reciting poetry. Read more here.

Who is Bill Mullen?

In 2021, Bard College announced the William C. Mullen Memorial Fund created by a generous donation from longtime Bard professor, Bill Mullen. This fund is used to promote his legacy through grants to any of Bill's former students to continue their studies in the liberal arts and sciences. William “Bill” Mullen (1946-2017), professor of classics and taught at Bard from 1985 - 2018. Read more here.

Who are the Judges?

Thomas Bartscherer is the Peter Sourian Senior Lecturer in the Humanities at Bard College. He writes on the intersection of literature and philosophy, with a particular focus on tragic drama, aesthetics, and performance. He also writes on contemporary art, new media technology, and the history and practice of liberal education. 

Ann Lauterbach is a poet and essayist. Her eleventh collection of poetry, Door, will be published by Penguin Random House in March (2023). She writes at the intersection of poetics, politics and the visual arts. A recipient of a Guggenheim Fellowship (1986) and a MacArthur Fellowship (1993), she is Ruth and David Schwab Professor of Languages and Literature (Written Arts) at Bard College.

Violinist Yi-Wen Jiang was born into a musical family in Beijing where both parents were professional musicians – his father a concertmaster for over 35 years and his mother a soprano soloist. After hearing Beethoven's violin concerto at the age of three, Jiang understood his life’s path: to become a professional violinist. He made his concerto debut at the age of 17 in Beijing and studied at the Central Conservatory of Music, before enrolling at the St. Louis Conservatory in 1985 to study with Taras Gabora and Michael Tree. Later he studied at Rugers University with Arnold Steinhardt. In 1994 Jiang joined the Shanghai Quartet, and over the next 26 years performed more than 3000 concerts in 37 countries. 
Jiang is Artist-in-Residence at the John J. Cali School of Music at Montclair State University and a faculty member at The Bard College Conservatory of Music.

Frank Corliss is the director of the Bard College Conservatory of Music. For many years he was a staff pianist for the Boston Symphony Orchestra and the Tanglewood Festival Chorus, and the director of music at the Walnut Hill School for the Arts. He frequently performed on the Boston Symphony Prelude Concert series and throughout the United States as a chamber musician and collaborative pianist. A graduate of the Oberlin Conservatory of Music, he received his MM from SUNY at Stony Brook, where he studied with Gilbert Kalish.  .

Do Circles Really Have Unique Centers? An Introduction to P-adic Numbers

Rylan Gajek-Leonard, '16, Union College

Wednesday, March 15, 2023
12–1 pm

RKC 111
We all have an intuitive notion of 'distance' between two numbers. For example, we might say that the distance between the numbers 3 and 5 is 2, and the distance between -5 and 1 is 6. But what do we really mean by 'distance'? Are there other ways to measure numbers? It turns out that the answer is yes: for every prime number p, there is a way to measure numbers in terms of their divisibility by p. In doing this, we are led to the world of "p-adic numbers", a strange place where all triangles are isosceles and where every point in a circle is its center. The theory of p-adic numbers permeates nearly all aspects of modern number theory. In this talk, we will define and gain intuition for the p-adic numbers and see some of their applications to problems in number theory.

Rylan completed his bachelor's degree in mathematics and music performance at Bard College, where he was also a cellist in the conservatory. He obtained a master's degree from the University of Cambridge, where he also performed with the Cambridge Philharmonic, and a PhD from UMass Amherst. Rylan currently teaches at Union College in Schenectady, New York. His research is in algebraic number theory and arithmetic geometry.Sponsored by: Computer Science Program; Mathematics Program.

Against Redemption: From Fascism to Democracy

A Discussion with Franco Baldasso, Thomas Wild, and Jana Schmidt

Wednesday, March 15, 2023
5:30 pm

Arendt Center
The immediate aftermath of the Second World War has been described, and often remembered, as a moment of total reset. After the liberation from Nazi-fascist forces, narratives of reconstruction, regeneration, and overcoming dominated public discourse especially in the member states of the former Axis alliance. Even in the United States, 1945 became known as the "zero hour." But the fantasy of a completely new beginning was, from the beginning, marred by uncomfortable continuities. Franco Baldasso's new book Against Redemption: Democracy, Memory, and Literature in Post-Fascist Italy (Fordham, 2022) calls attention to the case of Italy and the heterodox legacies of fascism. 

This discussion will test the idea of redemption for a deeper look at social and cultural change in the postwar period in Italy, the US, Germany, and other places. Join the Arendt Center for a discussion of Baldasso's fascinating new book and questions that continue to haunt us: 

What was at stake in fantasies of redemptive regeneration? 
How can we describe what happened "after" fascism? 
How did fascist currents continue to influence post-war societies? 
How does political nostalgia for authoritarian rule affect democracy?
Are fascism and democracy mutually exclusive? 

Please rsvp with Jana Schmidt, [email protected] An excerpt of the book will be provided to participants.

The Institute of Advanced Theology Spring 2023 Lecture Series

"In Search of the Once and Future Eden" with Bruce Chilton

Thursday, March 16, 2023
5:30–6:30 pm

Bard Hall
This lecture series is in conjunction with the book launch of Eden Revisited: A Novel by László Z. Bitó ’60. You can find the recordings of past lectures on the IAT website. These lectures and their recordings are made possible by the generosity of a loyal donor.

Eden is both a place in the mythic past and the prospect for a balanced, ecological, and human civilization in the future. Gnostic writers in particular have portrayed how the idyllic garden could have been lost, and why regaining its richness has proven elusive. Laszlo Bito, a Bard alumnus from the class of 1960 investigated these issues in his book Eden Revisited. The series is designed to join in that quest, in order to press the issue of Eden’s deep promise.

All lectures will take place on Thursdays at 5:30 pm in Bard Hall. 

Thursday, February 23 - Cain: the first murder, the first city
Thursday, March 2 - The Serpent: Language unravels Eden
Thursday, March 9 - YHWH

What Good Is Philosophy? – A Benefit Conference for Ukraine

Friday, March 17, 2023 – Sunday, March 19, 2023

Online Event
OSUN is collaborating with Kyiv Mohyla Academy (KMA) to support What Good Is Philosophy? – A Benefit Conference for Ukraine, which aims to raise the funds required to establish a Centre for Civic Engagement at KMA in Ukraine.

The forthcoming Centre will provide support for academic and civic institutions in Ukraine to counteract the destabilizing impact that Russia’s invasion has had on Ukrainian higher education and civilian life. By assisting Ukrainian students and scholars today, this Centre will also help pave the way for a vibrant and engaged post-war Ukraine.

The conference is designed to provide individual academics, members of the public, colleges and universities, professional associations, charitable foundations, and private companies with a way to support students, scholars, and civic institutions in Ukraine. 

Keynotes for What Good is Philosophy? will be delivered by world-renowned author, Margaret Atwood, one of the most celebrated scholars of Ukrainian history, Timothy Snyder, and two of Ukraine’s preeminent public intellectuals, Mychailo Wynnyckyj and Volodymyr Yermolenko. 

Lectures will also be given by some of the most influential philosophers writing today, including Peter Adamson, Elizabeth Anderson, Seyla Benhabib, Judith Butler, Agnes Callard, Quassim Cassam, Tim Crane, Simon Critchley, David Enoch, Peter Godfrey-Smith, Sally Haslanger, Angie Hobbs, Barry Lam, Melissa Lane, Dominic Lopes, Kate Manne, Jeff McMahan, Jennifer Nagel, Philip Pettit, Kieran Setiya, Jason Stanley, Timothy Williamson, and Jonathan Wolff.

The conference is produced by the Munk School of Global Affairs and Public Policy at the University of Toronto. See the full schedule here.

The conference will be broadcasted on the Munk School's YouTube channel on 17-19 March 2023, and also livestreamed here.

Exploring Dimensions of Openness in Educational Practices: Power, Knowledge, and Agency

Friday, March 17, 2023
4–10 am

Online Event
4 AM New York l 9 AM Vienna

What does it mean for education to be open?  Within the current discourse on open education, "openness” has been largely associated with open access to educational resources and open publishing—drawing on the opportunities provided by the Internet and digital technologies.

This workshop sponsored by the Open Society Research Platform seeks to explore the multiple, connected dimensions of openness in the context of educational practices. In particular, the workshop will ask how the concept of “open society” can be useful for expanding dominant approaches to openness in higher education. The event will specifically focus on the ways this more multifaceted understanding of openness can be translated into educational practices and pedagogical techniques.
 
The workshop will inquire about:
-What are the consequences of the currently dominant technology-centered approaches to open education for the envisaged forms and objectives of higher education, including its societal role? What are the relations between its democratizing and exclusionary effects? 
-How can open education arrive at a more agency-centered approach instead of the current implicitly passive paradigm in which its participants emerge as “users” rather than co-creators? 
-What are the ways of rethinking openness in education in order to augment its emancipatory potential? How should open education address existing power relations and hierarchies in educational institutions and practices? 
-How is open education associated with de-colonization in the learning process and knowledge production? 
-How can the notion of open society be translated into the curriculum and what are the implications for pedagogical approaches?

Workshop speakers include Meggan Houlihan (OSUN/Bard College), Samia Huq (BRAC University), Tamara Kamatovic (Central European University), Kaitlin Lucas (CEU), Pusa Nastase (CEU), S. M .Mahfuzur Rahman (BRAC University), and Matyas Szabo (CEU).

The workshop will be composed of two panels and a moderated roundtable discussion, which will be open to the audience. 
Check the event webpage for further updates.

Singing Exoplanets and the Unmapped Sky: The Joys and Challenges of Low Frequency Radio Astronomy (copy)

Mary Knapp, Massachusetts Institute of Technology

Friday, March 17, 2023
12–1 pm

Hegeman 107
We have maps of the sky across the electromagnetic spectrum - from high energy gamma rays through UV, optical, and infrared to radio frequencies.  One part of the spectrum is yet unexplored, however - very low frequency radio (< 10 MHz / 30 m).  This part of the spectrum is blocked by the Earth's ionosphere and is challenging to observe due to its very long wavelengths.  If we could access the low frequency radio sky, we could look back in time to the cosmological Dark Ages, study the plasma and magnetic fields that fill the spaces between stars, track solar storms as they barrel toward Earth, and listen for the radio signatures of exoplanetary magnetic fields. In this talk, I'll discuss low frequency radio science and past, present, and future efforts to build telescopes that can observe the low frequency sky.  I will describe the AERO-VISTA mission, which will map Earth's auroral radio environment.  I will also discuss future telescope concepts on the Moon and in space that seek to unveil this hidden part of the EM spectrum.Sponsored by: Physics Program.

What Good Is Philosophy? – A Benefit Conference for Ukraine

Friday, March 17, 2023 – Sunday, March 19, 2023

Online Event
OSUN is collaborating with Kyiv Mohyla Academy (KMA) to support What Good Is Philosophy? – A Benefit Conference for Ukraine, which aims to raise the funds required to establish a Centre for Civic Engagement at KMA in Ukraine.

The forthcoming Centre will provide support for academic and civic institutions in Ukraine to counteract the destabilizing impact that Russia’s invasion has had on Ukrainian higher education and civilian life. By assisting Ukrainian students and scholars today, this Centre will also help pave the way for a vibrant and engaged post-war Ukraine.

The conference is designed to provide individual academics, members of the public, colleges and universities, professional associations, charitable foundations, and private companies with a way to support students, scholars, and civic institutions in Ukraine. 

Keynotes for What Good is Philosophy? will be delivered by world-renowned author, Margaret Atwood, one of the most celebrated scholars of Ukrainian history, Timothy Snyder, and two of Ukraine’s preeminent public intellectuals, Mychailo Wynnyckyj and Volodymyr Yermolenko. 

Lectures will also be given by some of the most influential philosophers writing today, including Peter Adamson, Elizabeth Anderson, Seyla Benhabib, Judith Butler, Agnes Callard, Quassim Cassam, Tim Crane, Simon Critchley, David Enoch, Peter Godfrey-Smith, Sally Haslanger, Angie Hobbs, Barry Lam, Melissa Lane, Dominic Lopes, Kate Manne, Jeff McMahan, Jennifer Nagel, Philip Pettit, Kieran Setiya, Jason Stanley, Timothy Williamson, and Jonathan Wolff.

The conference is produced by the Munk School of Global Affairs and Public Policy at the University of Toronto. See the full schedule here.

The conference will be broadcasted on the Munk School's YouTube channel on 17-19 March 2023, and also livestreamed here.

Environmental Policy in Ukraine and the Impacts of War

Wednesday, March 22, 2023
8:30–10 am

Online Event
8:30 AM New York l 1:30 PM Vienna

Volodymyr Demkine, an OSUN Threatened Scholars Integration Initiative Fellow, will discuss his research on the environmental effects of military actions in Ukraine.

Wide-scale military activities not only directly damage different components of the environment and result in a loss of ecosystem services but also entail long-term impacts on achieving environmental and development goals.

Demkine will provide a brief overview of the prewar goals of environmental policy in Ukraine, both nationally and internationally, as well as insights on how achievement of these goals has been challenged by war.

Why Do We "Care?" Roots and Consequences of the Feminist Revolution in Iran

Monday, March 27, 2023
6:30–7:30 am

6:30 AM New York l 12:30 PM Vienna

Despite its uniqueness and unpredictability, the current Jin Jiyan Azadi revolution in Iran is not born out of a void. The Transnational Feminism, Solidarity, and Social Justice lecture series continues with a talk by Firoozeh Farvardin, a feminist activist and scholar, who will address the historical contexts of political discontent and mobilizations against gender/sexual politics of the Islamic Republic in the past four decades. She will also discuss the meanings and implications of calling the revolutionary movement in Iran a feminist revolution. Participants will be invited to think about the implications and long-term impacts of the Jin Jiyan Azadi revolution on transnational feminist struggles.

Firoozeh Farvardin is a feminist activist/scholar based in Berlin. She is currently a postdoc fellow of IRGAC (International Research Group on Authoritarianism and Counter-strategies), Rosa Luxemburg Foundation, where she is working on gender/sexual (counter) strategies of authoritarian neoliberalism in Iran. She is also an affiliated researcher at MERGE (Middle East and Migration Research Network) and a former guest lecturer at the Berlin Institute for Integration and Migration Research (BIM), Humboldt University of Berlin.

This event is part of an OSUN series dedicated to Gender Equity Month. See the full calendar of events here.

Livestream Special Event: Young Leaders and the Future of Civic Engagement

Monday, March 27, 2023
10–11:30 am

Online Event
10 AM New York l 3 PM Vienna

OSUN's Spring 2023 Civic Engagement and Social Action Course welcomes community members to an exciting livestream roundtable discussion with young changemakers. Our keynote speakers are all young people who have come through extreme circumstances to be agents of change. They advocate, inspire, and teach others about engagement and their voices are essential to our social evolution.

Panelists were nominated by students and colleagues from our partner institutions for this roundtable discussion on civic engagement from a younger perspective. They are David Hogg, co-founder, March for Our Lives; Sana Mustafa, CEO Asylum Access; and Korvi Rakshand, Founder and CEO, JAAGO Foundation.

Thrust into the world of activism by the largest school shooting in US history, Parkland survivor David Hogg has become one of the most compelling voices of his generation. His call to “get over politics and get something done” challenges Americans to stand up, speak out and work to elect morally just leaders, regardless of party affiliation. Passionate in his advocacy to end gun violence, Hogg’s mission of increasing voter participation, civic engagement and activism embraces a range of issues.

Sana Ali Mustafa, CEO, Asylum Access Sana Ali Mustafa, is a movement leader in the forced displacement sector and a feminist human rights activist fighting against systems of oppression in Syria and around the world. Mustafa's work has been informed by her experiences as a brown, queer, Arab, and forcibly displaced woman. After being forcibly displaced by the Assad regime, Sana led the establishment of global efforts for the representation and inclusion of forcibly displaced persons, such as the Global Refugee-led Network. Sana is currently Chief Executive Officer of Asylum Access, where she leads the organization’s work to dismantle decades of colonialism, fight for self-representation, and build intersectional coalitions to demand human rights for all forcibly displaced people.

Korvi Rakshand Founder and CEO, JAAGO Foundation Korvi Rakshand is a Bangladeshi social entrepreneur, who founded the JAAGO Foundation together with a group of young students. JAAGO began as a small room consisting of 17 children and a vision - to eliminate poverty through education. Korvi’s journey with JAAGO was one of constant struggle and dedication. Today, JAAGO Foundation supports the education of 4500 children across its 11 branches all over Bangladesh.

Spring 2023 Civic Engagement and Social Action is a globally engaged course that unites 100+ students and a dozen faculty from many institutions, including: Al-Quds Bard College of Arts and Sciences in East Jerusalem, American University of Afghanistan (AUAF), Ashesi University in Ghana, American University of Beirut, American University of Bulgaria, American University of Central Asia in Kyrgyzstan, Bard College Berlin, Brac University in Bangladesh, Central European University in Vienna, European Humanities University in Vilnius, Fulbright University of Vietnam, OSUN Refugee Learning Hubs in Kenya, Parami University in Myanmar, Tuskegee University, and UHelp/University of Quesquaya.

The Lonely Trees by the Rojava Film Commune

Film screening, with introduction by Lara Fresko Madra and Thomas Keenan

Monday, March 27, 2023
5–6:30 pm

Campus Center, Weis Cinema
The Lonely Trees (2017, 43 min) is a documentary about the “dengbej,” who carry the heritage of music, poetry, and storytelling in the semi- autonomous region of Rojava.

This event is part of Archival Collective Counter–Imagination, a two-part series curated by art historian and current CHRA Fellow Lara Fresko Madra.

The series brings together two collective endeavors —the Rojava Film Commune and the Material Aesthetic Research Collective — to think through not only who archives belong to, but how they generate a sense of belonging. In engaging the moving image as a site of negotiation and building collectivity, these endeavors are concerned with how such media can create and re-create past and future community. Brushing the archive against the grain, is it possible to listen to its absences? This program explores the two group’s modes of social organization around the moving image that cross and, at times, defy the horizon of the nation-state. 

Komîna Fîlm a Rojava (The Rojava Film Commune) is a commune of filmmakers based in the eponymous autonomous region in northern Syria. Their work across the region builds and develops infrastructures for filmmaking, screening, and education, fostering new audiences and an awareness of filmmaking as a medium for empowerment and a tool for liberation. The commune’s creative output spans documentary and commercial films as well as public service announcements. 

Lara Fresko Madra is an art historian, writer, and curator with a PhD in Art History from Cornell University. Her research focuses on contemporary artistic practices from Turkey and the Middle East that challenge official history and offer alternative ways of relating to the past. She is currently a teaching and research fellow at the Center for Human Rights and the Arts at Bard College. Sponsored by: OSUN Center for Human Rights and the Arts.

Boycott

Julia Bacha, 2021

Tuesday, March 28, 2023
5:30–7:30 pm

Campus Center, Weis Cinema
Over the past six years, unbeknownst to most Americans, 34 states passed laws intending to silence boycott and other nonviolent measures aimed at pressuring Israel on its human rights record. These dangerous bills remove the legal protection that has been awarded to boycotts for generations, granting governments the power to condition jobs on political viewpoints. 

As this wave of anti-boycott legislation has swept through the country, so has a counter-wave in defense of freedom of speech. Everyday Americans are challenging these laws for their constitutionality in a nation-wide battle likely to go all the way to the Supreme Court. 

With full access to the plaintiffs and in revelatory moments with elected officials, Boycott chronicles one of the most consequential First Amendment battles of the past few decades and investigates the question – how did we get here?
 
The screening will be followed by a discussion with Julia Bacha, moderated by Peter Rosenblum, Professor of International Law and Human Rights.
 
This event is organized in conjunction with the OSUN Network Collaborative Course, Freedom of Expression.
Sponsored by: Global and International Studies Program; Human Rights Project; Middle Eastern Studies Program.

Breaking the Boundaries: A Film Screening and Panel Discussion on Women's Empowerment in the MENA Region

Wednesday, March 29, 2023
11 am – 1 pm

Online Event
11 AM New York l 5 PM Vienna

OSUN's Gender Equity Working Group is sponsoring an engaging and thought-provoking event that explores the intersections of gender, culture, and women's empowerment in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA). Hosted by Al-Quds Bard College and open to all OSUN institutions, this event will feature a screening of the acclaimed movie "Divar (The Wall)", followed by an open discussion.

The film delves into the struggles faced by women in the region, particularly those related to oppression and imposed restrictions. We will examine the cultural and societal factors that contribute to these challenges, and explore the ways in which women are breaking barriers and challenging gender norms in the region.

After the screening, we will open the floor for a discussion where participants can share their insights, ask questions, and engage in a constructive dialogue on the topic. This is an opportunity to learn from one another, gain a deeper understanding of gender, culture, and women's empowerment, and be part of a supportive community that values open-mindedness, diversity, and inclusion.

The Ambivalent Reception of Turkic Refugees in Early Twentieth Century Japan

Dr. Noriko Kanahara '04, Waseda University-Tokyo

Wednesday, March 29, 2023
5:30 pm

Olin 102
This talk explores how in the 1920s through the early 1940s, Japanese state officials determined whether or not to accept Turkic Muslim refugees from the former Russian Empire. Though at most 1000 in number, the refugees left a significant impact not only on how Japanese state officials understood Islam and the power of Muslim networks in global politics, but also on how these officials formed national consciousness in contradistinction to them. Analysis of the journals of the Japanese intelligence police reveals that although the police considered the refugees' religion as an important marker, the refugees’ political interests were most significant in determining whether or not to accept them in Japan. This talk demonstrates that religion and ideology, particularly Islam and Communism, impacted how the refugees established transnational relationships and how Japanese state officials demarcated the nation during the interwar and wartime periods following the Russian Revolution and throughout the Second World War. More specifically, religious and ideological ties—precisely because they were considered powerful tools of transnational mobilization—served as grounds for the Japanese state’s ambivalent reception of refugees.
 
Bio: Noriko Kanahara graduated from Bard College in 2004 with a BA in Anthropology. She has a PhD in History from the University of Chicago, an M.Phil. in Migration Studies from Oxford University, and an MA in Area Studies from Tokyo University. She has held postdoctoral research fellowships at Tohoku University and Waseda University in Japan. She is currently a research fellow at the Ryusaku Tsunoda Center of Japanese Culture at Waseda University. 

This event has received generous support from the Anthropology, Asian Studies, and Global & International Studies programs.

Sawkill Eel Project - Volunteer Opportunities!

Every Spring, the NYSDEC deploys special nets where volunteers count, weigh, and release the migrating eels every day. We have one of these sites right on Bard College campus, in front of the Ecology field station!

Every member of the Bard community is encouraged to "voluntEEL!"
 

Thursday, March 30, 2023 – Thursday, March 31, 2022

Bard College Ecology Field Station
Hello Bardians!

Springtime brings a lot to look forward to--the most exciting of which is eel migration! Every spring, the American Eel migrates from the Atlantic Ocean into freshwater rivers or estuaries. However, the threats of overfishing, pollution, and barriers to migration routes have caused a decline in eel populations. The communuty science Hudson River Eel Project, started by the NYS Department of Environmental Conservation ten years ago, monitors the population size of eels migrating up the Hudson River and into tributaries such as the Saw Kill in order to inform management and conservation decisions. 

Every spring the NYSDEC deploys special nets at different sites along the Hudson River from Staten Island to Troy, where volunteers count, weigh, and release the migrating eels every day. Luckily, we have one of these sites right on our campus, in front of the Ecology field station!

Because we are largely volunteer-based, spreading the word about this project is important.and we are asking you to sign up again this year! https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/13FYxREEdcZ0MAMm0rjawXoQ9xr1V6XS0UNadGHx2rA4/edit#gid=0. You can sign up for as many shifts as you want. Once you sign up for a slot we depend on you being there, so please let us know if your plans change and you can no longer come as soon as possible.

The project:
Every spring, the American Eel migrates from the Sargasso Sea into freshwater rivers and estuaries. However, the threats of overfishing, pollution, and barriers to migration routes have caused a decline in eel populations. The citizen science Hudson River Eel Project, started by the NYS Department of Environmental Conservation fifteen years ago, monitors the population size of eels migrating up the Hudson River and into tributaries such as the Saw Kill in order to inform management and conservation decisions. 

Every spring the NYSDEC deploys special nets at different sites along the Hudson River from Staten Island to Troy, where volunteers count, weigh, and release the migrating eels every day. Luckily, we have one of these sites right on Bard College campus, in front of the Ecology field station!

Eeling process:
From March to May eeling is done daily at low tide (different time everyday). Eeling entails wading into the water, checking the net for eels (and other animals), tying the knots to secure the net, writing down the data, and releasing eels upstream over the dam. There will be at least one experienced eeler present who will teach you the steps. On average, eeling shifts take an hour depending on the number of eels caught. 

What you should bring:
Although you don’t need any special gear please be aware that eeling involves wading into the water (with provided water protective gear) and searching through the net. Please dress warmly and comfortably.

Directions:
We will meet at the field gear cabinets under the deck at the Bard College Ecology Field Station located at the end of Bay Road, which connects to Blithewood Avenue before Jim Ottaway Jr. Film Center. We recommend you leave your car in the parking lot located just before the turn onto Bay Road.

Safety:
Remember to check yourself for ticks. Never sample alone or in unsafe conditions (lightning, high flow, etc.). Be aware of debris on the bottom when you are wading in. Please note that you might not be able to get inside the field station; this means that you won’t be able to use restrooms or warm up indoors.

Please contact us at [email protected] with any questions and follow us on Instagram @bardeels for updates!

We look forward to seeing you!
Best,

Archives of Truth: Documentary Screening on The Truth Commission of Ecuador

Thursday, March 30, 2023
12–1 pm

Online Event
12 PM New York l 6 PM Vienna

The Central European University masters course in "Tensions and Dilemmas in Transitional Justice," in conjunction with OSUN CELAS (Community Engaged Liberal Arts and Sciences project), presents a screening of "Archives of Truth" followed by an interactive discussion on transitional justice in post-dictatorship Spain.

No Justice Without Truth

The Truth Commission of Ecuador (TCE) was created in May 2007 to investigate multiple allegations of serious human rights violations in the country, particularly in the period of 1984 - 1988, and also including cases committed up to 2008. After nearly three years of inquiries, collecting more than 600 testimonies and other documentary evidence, the TCE presented its final report "No Truth Without Justice," in which it analyzed 118 cases of human rights abuses.

The 30-minute documentary uncovers unpublished images and testimonies about important findings and conclusions of the investigation, showing evidence of homicides, sexual violence, enforced disappearances and torture of citizens in the hands of state agents in Ecuador.

Truth, Justice and Reparation: Learning from Latin-American and Spanish Experiences

The screening will be introduced by Gina Donoso, former member of the psychosocial team of the TCE in charge of collecting and presenting victims’ testimonies before the Truth Commission, as well as writing the chapter on psychosocial impacts in the Commission´s final report.  Dr. Donoso is currently a visiting professor at the Department of Political Sciences, Central European University. She also works as a psychosocial and trauma consultant, and a transitional justice, gender, and reparations specialist.  Over the past 20 years, Dr. Donoso has also worked with the transitional justice mechanisms of Colombia, Uganda, Bolivia, the Gambia and several international organizations, including the International Criminal Court, the Inter-American Commission of Human Rights, and UN agencies.

The screening will be followed by a discussion with Pau Pérez-Sales (Psychiatrist, Hospital La Paz, Madrid). He Has worked with the Guatemalan, Peruvian and Colombian Truth Comissions. He has worked in processes of exhumation of mass graves in Spain and elsewhere. As a forensic expert, he assessed victims of Spanish torturers for litigation in national and international courts.
 
Discussion moderator Leila Lawrence is a first-year student in the political science MA at CEU, specializing in social and political theory. She is editor of the CEU Student think tank project with Daddyhood Europe and is a featured panelist in discussions of misogyny and toxic masculinity in schools.

Gowri Niranjana, MA Human Rights will serve as discussant.

(Self-) Documentation in Wartime

Thursday, March 30, 2023
12–1:30 pm

Online Event
12 PM New York l 6 PM Vienna

This talk by the Threatened Scholars Integration Initiative centers on documentation and self-documentation following the brutal full-scale military Russian invasion of Ukraine. Queer feminist scholars, artists, and activists Ira Tantsiura, Marina Gaba, and Natalka Chezh explore the challenges of creating and preserving war memories and experiences from a decolonial perspective. Panelists make timely contributions to the discussion of the ethics and politics of war documentation through various examples: from planning a feminist film festival to the self-documentation of performance art in the streets to the autoethnographic changes that living in wartime brings to one's writing.

This event is sponsored by the Threatened Scholars Initiative of the Open Society University Network (TSI-OSUN) and open to the public. It is part of the series New Directions in Research and Art: Perspectives from Ukraine.

Natalka Chezh is a burned-out grassroots queer anarcho activist who now sporadically translates texts of her comrades and writes her own, most of which will never see the light of day.

Marina Gaba is an artist who works with performance, photo and video documentation, and zine-making. She grew up and established herself as an artist in Dnipro, where she still lives.

Ira Tantsiura is an independent researcher, queer feminist activist, and film festival programmer.

Dyadic Interventions: Involving significant others in suicide prevention
 

Alexis May, Wesleyan University

Thursday, March 30, 2023
4–5:30 pm

Reem-Kayden Center Laszlo Z. Bito '60 Auditorium
Over the last two decades the frequency of suicidal thoughts, behaviors, and deaths has risen in the United States and remains high. This crisis has spurred the rapid development of interventions to prevent suicide. A common element across these interventions is their sole focus on the suicidal individual. This is in stark contrast to the critical role interpersonal connections play in suicide risk – a role highlighted by suicide theory, empirical data, complementary evidence, and best practice recommendations. However, including loved ones in treatments for suicidal individuals also presents unique challenges – suicidal individuals fear stigma, poor response to their disclosure and being a burden to others. Allies of suicidal individuals are hindered by misinformation, limited self-efficacy in helping, and high stress levels. The presentation will explore what contemporary suicide theories suggest about the role of significant others in suicide prevention and describe emerging interventions that involve significant others. The presentation will take a deep dive in to the couples crisis response plan, a novel single session suicide prevention intervention currently being tested among psychiatrically hospitalized service members and Veterans. Sponsored by: Psychology Program.

Politics, Sex, and Feminism in Jamaica as told by Beverley Manley Duncan

Friday, March 31, 2023
8:30–10:30 am

Online Event
8:30 AM New York l 2:30 PM Vienna

OSUN invites the network community to a virtual screening of "Beverley Manley Uncensored," a documentary uncovering the life of an enigmatic Jamaican icon. The screening will be followed by a discussion with Beverley Manley Duncan, former First Lady of Jamaica, author, activist, and founder of the Jamaican women's movement, and documentary filmmaker, Joelle Simone Powe.

As the wife of Jamaica's former Prime Minister, Michael Manley, Beverley Manley Duncan conversed with global players such as Fidel Castro, Winnie Mandela, and Pierre Trudeau. In this no-stone-unturned documentary, Beverley forces herself to confront her complicated past. What was it like to be a Black woman seated at the table and lying in bed next to powerful political players? Does she play a pivotal or supporting role? As a Black nationalist, she wore large Afros and head turbans in corridors of power where they were typically not welcomed.  

Manley Duncan founded the Jamaican Women's Movement, mobilizing policy changes such as equal pay for women, establishing a minimum wage, and maternity leave. She advocated for the rights of sex workers. She is controversial in her outspoken views of women's sexuality, infidelity, and domestic abuse. She is a powerful voice with wisdom to teach the ages. She is a critical link to where we have come from and a seer of where we might be going. 

Join us for a riveting discussion with Beverley Manley, now 80 years old, and Bard College alumn turned documentary filmmaker, Joelle Simone Powe. The open conversation will explore feminism’s evolution in the developing world, fashion and hair choices as political statements, mental slavery, power, adultery, and sexual desire at any age.

This event is part of  the OSUN Gender Equity Working Group's series dedicated to Gender Equity Month.

Expanding Our Gravitational View of the Universe with Quantum Interferometry

Victoria Xu, Massachusetts Institute of Technology

Friday, March 31, 2023
12–1 pm

Hegeman 107
From atom interferometry to laser interferometry, experiments are leveraging quantum mechanics to expand our gravitational view of the Universe. In atom interferometry, we have realized ultra-long coherence times for atoms in spatially-separated superpositions, which can be used for precision table-top tests of exotic physics and gravity. In laser interferometry, as one of the most sensitive instruments ever built, the Advanced Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory (Advanced LIGO) operates at the limit of quantum noise to detect gravitational waves (GWs) from cataclysmic cosmic events, such as the mergers of black hole and neutron star binaries. Already, the detectors inject quantum light (“squeezed” vacuum) to reduce the high-frequency quantum noise from shot noise. Major upgrades have now been commissioned to additionally reduce the excess low-frequency quantum noise from opto-mechanical backaction. This involves coupling our squeezed light source to a 300-m long, narrow-band, optical “filter” cavity, which rotates the squeezing quadrature below 100 Hz to evade low-frequency quantum noise in the astrophysically-critical band. This low-frequency squeeze rotation will at last configure the LIGO interferometers for optimal sensing, capable of exceeding the standard quantum limit to our measurement sensitivity. In the next observing run of Advanced LIGO, our quantum-enhanced sensitivity will expand the observable horizon of GW astronomy by 70%, expected to bring GW detection from a near-weekly to near-daily occurrence just 9 years after the dawn of GW astronomy.Sponsored by: Physics Program.

The Many Masks of Federico García Lorca

John Burns, Associate Professor of Spanish, Bard College

Friday, March 31, 2023
2–3:30 pm

Olin, Room 102
Federico García Lorca is perhaps the most recognizable Spanish poet in English translation. This workshop will explore the many ways in which Lorca's poetry has been translated with sometimes radically different results. In addition to comparing some different translations of some of Lorca's poetry, we will attempt to translate some of his work as a group, although no prior knowledge of Spanish is required.Sponsored by: Bard Translation and Translatability Initiative; Spanish Studies.
