SUMMARY:Fordham Interdisciplinary Seminar Series: Laura Specker Sullivan
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a lecture from Laura Specker Sullivan\, titled “Situated Personhood: Insights from Caregivers of Minimally Communicative Individuals.” \nFor caregivers of minimally communicative individuals\, providing support in the absence of clearly meaningful responses is ethically fraught. We conducted a secondary analysis of qualitative data from caregivers of individuals who are minimally communicative\, including persons with advanced dementia and individuals with disorders of consciousness. Our analysis led to two central claims: (1) Personhood is a threshold concept that is situated\, relational\, and dynamic; (2) In circumstances in which personhood is difficult to judge\, caregivers can “fill the gap” to reach the threshold through a repertoire of strategies. Because personhood is in part an attribution from others\, a situational loss of personhood does not preclude restoration\, nor does it eliminate moral status. \nAbout the Speaker\nLaura Specker Sullivan is an assistant professor of philosophy. She is a specialist in interdisciplinary and cross-cultural ethics who incorporates her experience in clinical ethics consultation and qualitative research into her philosophical work. She received her Ph.D. from the University of Hawaii\, focusing on informed consent in Japan. She is the former director of ethics at the Medical University of South Carolina and a previous assistant professor of philosophy at the College of Charleston. She has held fellowships at the Center for Bioethics at Harvard Medical School\, the Center for Sensorimotor Neural Engineering at the University of Washington\, Neuroethics Canada at the University of British Columbia\, and the Kokoro Research Center at Kyoto University. \nThis event will take place in a hybrid format and will have live captioning. Attend the lecture virtually.

SUMMARY:Physics and Engineering Physics Colloquium
DESCRIPTION:Johannes Flick\, Ph.D.\, assistant professor\, Department of Physics\, City College of New York\, will present\, “First-Principle Approaches to Strong Light-Matter Coupling in Molecular and Extended Systems.” \nIn recent years\, research at the interface of material science\, chemistry\, and quantum optics has surged and now offers new possibilities to study light-matter interactions. The combination of theoretical concepts from these fields presents an opportunity to create a predictive theoretical and computational approach from first principles that describes the correlated dynamics of electrons\, nuclei\, and the electromagnetic field on the same quantized footing. \nIn this talk\, Flick will discuss how density-functional theory can be generalized to quantum-electrodynamical density-functional theory (QEDFT) and show how new exchange-correlation potentials arise. We discuss the linear-response theory for QEDFT to access excited state properties of such systems\, the emerging ab initio lifetimes\, and the incorporation of losses. By considering electrons\, nuclei\, and photons on the same quantized footing\, we find polaritonically induced vibrational mode mixing\, cavity-modulated molecular motion of molecules in optical cavities\, as well as new light-matter correlated observables for a new type of spectroscopy. Further\, we use this novel framework to study how chemical reactivity is altered in this regime\, by studying the modification of potential-energy surfaces under strong light-matter coupling. Beyond molecular systems\, we will discuss how strong light-matter coupling can be used to make nonlinear phonon processes more efficient and discuss first principle methods to characterize novel single-photon emitters.

SUMMARY:Financial Issues Forum Presents Dror Goldberg on Easy Money: American Puritans and the Invention of Modern Currency
DESCRIPTION:Economists endlessly debate the nature of legal tender monetary systems—coins and bills issued by a government or other authority—yet the origins of these currencies have received little attention. Dror Goldberg tells the story of modern money in North America through the Massachusetts colony during the 17th century. As the young settlement transitioned to self-governance and its economy grew\, the need to formalize a smooth exchange emerged. Printing local money followed. \nEasy Money illustrates how colonists invented contemporary currency by shifting its foundation from intrinsically valuable goods—such as silver—to the taxation of the state. Goldberg traces how this structure grew into a worldwide system in which\, monetarily\, we are all Massachusetts. Weaving economics\, law\, and American history\, Easy Money is a new touchstone in the story of monetary systems. \nJoin us to hear from Goldberg\, in conversation with Richard Sylla. \nAbout the Speakers\nDror Goldberg is a senior faculty member in the Department of Management and Economics at the Open University of Israel. He holds a Ph.D. in economics from the University of Rochester and a law degree from Tel Aviv University. Goldberg studies the theory\, history\, and law of money\, especially of legal tender currency. His work was published in the Journal of Economic History\, the Journal of Monetary Economics\, Economic Theory\, and the Journal of Money\, Credit\, and Banking\, among others. He is the author of Easy Money: American Puritans and the Invention of Modern Currency\, published by the University of Chicago Press in March. Goldberg worked at Texas A&M University and spent a sabbatical in the Department of Economics at NYU as a guest of professor Richard Sylla. \nRichard Sylla is a professor emeritus of economics and the former Henry Kaufman Professor of the History of Financial Institutions and Markets at the NYU Stern School of Business. He is the author or co-author of several books\, including Alexander Hamilton on Finance\, Credit\, and Debt\, Alexander Hamilton: The Illustrated Biography\, and Genealogy of American Finance. He was chairman of the Museum of American Finance from 2010 to 2020. \nRegistration is required.

SUMMARY:Amy Weiss on Realigning Faith: American Jews\, Protestants\, and Israel 1945–2020
DESCRIPTION:In 1977\, the American Jewish Committee awarded Billy Graham its first National Interreligious Award in recognition of the evangelist’s support of Israel and endorsement of interfaith relations. While bestowing the award upon an evangelical—and not a mainline Protestant or Catholic—made sense to the AJC\, not all Jewish communal organizations or American Jews understood this decision. This talk examines the shifting alliances the AJC and other communal organizations forged with evangelicals in the late 20th century and how these alliances revealed the role of Israel in Jewish-Protestant relations. \nAbout the Speaker\nAmy Weiss holds the Maurice Greenberg Chair of Judaic Studies and is an assistant professor of Judaic studies and history at the University of Hartford. During the 2022-2023 academic year\, she is also a faculty fellow in ethnic studies for the University of Hartford’s Center for the Humanities and a Center for Jewish History-Fordham University Research Fellow. She previously held the Thomas and Elissa Ellant Katz Fellowship at the University of Pennsylvania’s Herbert D. Katz Center for Advanced Judaic Studies. Her research and publications focus on the intersections of American Jewish history\, Israeli culture\, and Jewish-Protestant relations. She is currently writing a book manuscript on the evolving relationships American Jewish communal organizations have forged with evangelicals on issues relating to Israel. Most recently\, her articles have appeared in the journals American Jewish History\, Holocaust and Genocide Studies\, and Israel Studies. Her work has also appeared in the edited volumes Armed Jews in the Americas\, Teaching the Arab-Israeli Conflict in the College Classroom\, and Minhagim: Custom and Practice in Jewish Life. Weiss received her Ph.D. from the departments of Hebrew and Judaic studies and history at New York University. \nThis hybrid lecture is part of the joint research fellowship at the Center for Jewish History and Fordham’s Center for Jewish Studies.

SUMMARY:'Progressive Jewish Culture in Argentina and South America: An Ethno-Political Identity (1937-1991)'
DESCRIPTION:Join us for this lecture by Saba Nerina Visacovsky\, part of the Fordham-NYPL Lecture Series. \nThe progressive Jewish movement in Argentina and South America was formed in the heat of the slogans and transnational initiatives of the popular front and its call for unity to fight fascism and anti-Semitism\, and in defense of the Yiddish culture. The creation of the Yidisher Kultur Farband Federation (YKUF) during the Congress of Jewish Culture held in Paris in 1937\, and its replica in Buenos Aires in 1941 (ICUF)\, embodied this atmosphere. The YKUF/ICUF brought together the existing pro-Soviet secular Jewish institutions and collaborated to create new ones. The new federation provided them with a political-ideological framework for their representation in the Jewish street and in their relationship with the Communist Party. This lecture aims to present the progressive Jewish identity in Argentina and refer briefly to the impact of the YKUF in South American countries. \nThis is a hybrid event; please register for forthcoming details about the location. \nAbout the Speaker\nNerina Visacovsky holds a Ph.D. from the Philosophy and Literature Faculty of the University of Buenos Aires\, Argentina. She is a researcher at the National Council for Scientific and Technical Research (Conicet)\, a professor of politics and government at the School of the National University of San Martín\, and director of the Pinie Katz Documentation Center and Library (Cedob) from the ICUF. She has written several articles for national and international journals. Among her books are Argentinos judíos y camaradas: tras la utopía socialista (2015) and La tribuna icufista: tiempo de aportes (2021).

SUMMARY:Alice in Chinatown: Chol Soo Lee’s Fight for Freedom — APALSA Reenactment
DESCRIPTION:On the evening of June 3\, 1973\, a man was shot and killed on a crowded street in San Francisco’s Chinatown in a suspected gang murder. Within days\, the police arrested Chol Soo Lee\, a 20-year-old Korean immigrant. He was convicted of murder and sentenced to life imprisonment. In prison\, he killed a white gang member in a fight and was given the death penalty. A Korean American newspaper reporter challenged the fairness of his conviction and sentence in an article titled “The Alice in Chinatown Murder Case\,” helping to set off a pan-Asian American grassroots movement to free Chol Soo Lee. \nPlease join us for the APALSA’s reenactment of the Chol Soo Lee story\, followed by an expert panel discussion and reception. \nAgenda\n6 – 7:15 p.m.: Reenactment of Chol Soo Lee Case\n7:15 – 7:45 p.m.: Panel discussion\n7:45 p.m.: Cocktail reception

SUMMARY:Professional Boundaries: Ethical Obligations of Social Workers
DESCRIPTION:Can mental health professionals work with clients that they know from outside of the job? Can you barter with clients for your services? Mental health professionals are charged with the legal and ethical responsibility to maintain professional boundaries\, but the obligation isn’t always so easy to discern. This class brings real-world context to ethical concerns often experienced by professionals in practice in maintaining appropriate professional boundaries. This class will provide a framework to contemplate ethical dilemmas and make informed decisions that insulate professionals from legal liability while protecting clients from harm. \nRegister for May 4 \nRegister for June 1 \nCompletion of this class will result in the receipt of three continuing education hours. \n\nThis class is designed to meet the New York state requirement that mental health professionals receive three hours of training on maintaining appropriate professional boundaries (effective April 2023). This class is not specific to New York state and can satisfy ethics and boundaries training requirements for any state.

SUMMARY:Holy Cow: Religion\, Race\, and Milk in Lancaster County\, Pennsylvania
DESCRIPTION:In the past 15 years\, Lancaster County has increasingly become a thriving hub for Orthodox Jewish tourists seeking “kosher” leisure activities\, including encounters with the Amish tourist industry. The expanding Orthodox Jewish tourist infrastructure has developed in tandem with an unexpected economic collaboration between some ultra-Orthodox Jews and local Amish and Mennonite farmers to produce unpasteurized kosher dairy products. Based on anthropological research with Orthodox Jewish tourists\, dairy entrepreneurs\, and local Amish/Mennonite farmers\, Feldman and Fader show that kosher collaborations around milk\, in particular\, offer a lens to think through contemporary American racialized politics and minority religious identities in our\npost-COVID-19 and post-Trump realities. \nAbout the Speakers\nRachel Feldman is a cultural anthropologist and currently an assistant professor of religious studies/Judaic studies at Franklin and Marshall College in Pennsylvania. Starting on July 1\, she will be moving to Dartmouth College and will be joining the Department of Religion. Feldman is the author of Messianic Zionism in the Digital Age: Jews\, Noahides\, and the Third Temple Imaginary\, a book that is forthcoming from Rutgers University Press and was recently awarded the Jordan Schnitzer first book prize by the AJS. She is also the co-editor of Settler-Indigeneity in the West Bank\, a volume that will be available in July from McGill-Queen’s University Press. \nAyala Fader is a professor of anthropology at Fordham University. She is the author of the award-winning books Mitzvah Girls: Bringing Up the Next Generation of Hasidic Jews in Brooklyn (2009) and Hidden Heretics: Jewish Doubt in the Digital Age (2020). Fader’s research\, supported by prestigious fellowships from the NSF and the NEH\, appears in academic journals and more public venues. Fader is the co-founder of the Seminar on Jewish Orthodoxies at Fordham\, is on the steering committee of the Haredi Research Group\, and is a fellow at the American Academy for Jewish Research. As the director of Fordham’s New York Center for Public Anthropology\, Fader is currently collaborating on the Demystifying Language Project\, which works to make linguistic anthropology a social justice resource for public high schools. \nCo-sponsored by the Seminar on Jewish Orthodoxies and the Haredi Research Group.

SUMMARY:Moral Distress: What It Is and How to Respond
DESCRIPTION:The concept of moral distress refers to a clinical situation in which the patient is perceived to be “suffering” and the clinician knows what they feel to be the best course of action\, but that course conflicts with what is best for the organization\, other providers\, other patients\, the family\, or society as a whole. Moral distress can occur when the professional feels a sense of heightened moral responsibility and a perception of powerlessness. \nWhile moral distress was first recognized among nurses\, we now know that moral distress affects physicians\, pharmacists\, social workers\, chaplains\, psychologists\, and other healthcare providers. This class covers the experience of moral distress\, its impact on clinicians of multiple disciplines\, and the specific impact of moral distress among palliative care teams. Special attention will be given to the impact of the pandemic on moral distress. Strategies for recognizing and dealing with the experience of moral distress in individuals\, teams\, and within health systems will be considered. \nThree continuing education hours will be offered upon completion of the course.

SUMMARY:Financial Issues Forum: Pulak Prasad on What I Learned About Investing from Darwin
DESCRIPTION:The investment profession is in a state of crisis. The vast majority of equity fund managers are unable to beat the market over the long term\, which has led to massive outflows from active funds to passive funds. Where should investors turn in search of a new approach? \nPulak Prasad offers a philosophy of patient\, long-term investing based on an unexpected source: evolutionary biology. He draws key lessons from core Darwinian concepts\, mixing vivid examples from the natural world with compelling stories of good and bad investing decisions—including his own. How can Bumblebees’ survival strategies help us accept that we might miss out on Tesla? What does an experiment in breeding tame foxes reveal about the traits of successful businesses? Why might a small frog’s mimicry of the croak of a larger rival shed light on the signs of corporate dishonesty? \nInformed by successful evolutionary strategies\, Prasad outlines his counterintuitive principles for long-term gain. He provides three mantras for investing: Avoid big risks\, buy high quality at a fair price\, and don’t be lazy—be very lazy. Prasad makes a persuasive case for a strategy that rules out the vast majority of investment opportunities and advocates permanently owning high-quality businesses. \nCombining punchy prose and practical insight\, What I Learned About Investing from Darwin reveals why evolutionary biology can help fund managers become better at their craft. \nAbout the Speaker\nPulak Prasad is the author of What I Learned About Investing from Darwin (Columbia Business School Publishing\, May 2023). He is the founder of Nalanda Capital\, a Singapore-based firm that invests in listed Indian equities and manages about $5 billion. He was previously the co-head of India for Warburg Pincus\, a global private equity firm\, and worked at the management consulting firm McKinsey for several years.

SUMMARY:Strengthening Healthcare Social Work Documentation to Mitigate Bias
DESCRIPTION:Healthcare social workers engage in discipline-specific\, skilled interventions informed by training\, best practices\, and attunement to social justice. Documenting assessments and interventions clearly communicates the value of the social work perspective\, skills\, and contributions and influences outcomes while also contributing to the learning of those who read our work. This class will review the literature on bias in documentation in the medical record\, a focus driven by the advent of “open notes” as of April 2021. Sample patient notes and narratives will be used to illustrate how social work documentation communicates best practices and has the potential to mitigate bias while integrating the impacts of social determinants. \nNo matter the setting\, word choice is foundational to communication and documentation and significantly impacts patient family experiences\, decisional outcomes\, bereavement\, and legacy. We will explore attributed meanings underlying words and phrases used in health care and unintended consequences. Our spoken words are often reflected in the written words and phrases used in documentation in a medical record\, which is a permanent record influencing care. This class will expand on language and word choice and highlight the ethical responsibility in documenting authentically and with the awareness that documentation is permanent\, creates opportunities to mitigate bias\, and can maximize the impact of the social work lens of “person in environment.” \nCompletion of this class will result in the receipt of two continuing education hours.

SUMMARY:Pope Francis and Social Justice: Cardinal Michael Czerny\, S.J.\, Discusses His New Book
DESCRIPTION:Cardinal Michael Czerny\, SJ\, head of the Vatican’s Dicastery for Promoting Integral Human Development\, is the Curia’s chief promoter of the social justice ministry of Pope Francis\, a fellow Jesuit. \nCardinal Czerny will be discussing his latest book\, Siblings All\, Sign of the Times: The Social Teaching of Pope Francis. Written with Italian theologian Father Michael Barone\, this work traces the path of social justice that Pope Francis has laid out—a body of teaching that is both radical in responding to the dynamics of our era\, but also grounded in Catholic tradition and the Second Vatican Council. \nIn this discussion at the offices of America Media\, Cardinal Czerny will be joined by Christine Firer Hinze\, chair of Fordham University’s Department of Theology and author of Radical Sufficiency: Work\, Livelihood\, and a U.S. Catholic Economic Ethic\, and Anthony Annett\, visiting scholar at the Center for Sustainable Development at Columbia University and author of Cathonomics: How Catholic Tradition Can Create a More Just Economy. \nThe event will begin with a wine and cheese reception at 5:30 p.m.\, and the book discussion will begin at 6:15 p.m. Books will be available for sale. \nSpace is limited\, and a reservation is required. \nThis event is jointly organized with America Media.

SUMMARY:Professional Boundaries: Ethical Obligations of Social Workers
DESCRIPTION:Can mental health professionals work with clients that they know from outside of the job? Can you barter with clients for your services? Mental health professionals are charged with the legal and ethical responsibility to maintain professional boundaries\, but the obligation isn’t always so easy to discern. This class brings real-world context to ethical concerns often experienced by professionals in practice in maintaining appropriate professional boundaries. This class will provide a framework to contemplate ethical dilemmas and make informed decisions that insulate professionals from legal liability while protecting clients from harm. \nRegister for May 4 \nRegister for June 1 \nCompletion of this class will result in the receipt of three continuing education hours. \n\nThis class is designed to meet the New York state requirement that mental health professionals receive three hours of training on maintaining appropriate professional boundaries (effective April 2023). This class is not specific to New York state and can satisfy ethics and boundaries training requirements for any state.

SUMMARY:Financial Issues Forum: Edward Chancellor on The Price of Time: The Real Story of Interest
DESCRIPTION:In the beginning\, there was the loan\, and the loan carried interest. For at least five millennia\, people have been borrowing and lending at interest. The practice wasn’t always popular: In the ancient world\, usury was generally viewed as exploitative\, a potential path to debt bondage and slavery. Yet as capitalism became established from the late Middle Ages onward\, denunciations of interest were tempered because interest was a necessary reward for lenders who parted with their capital. And interest performs many other vital functions: It encourages people to save; enables them to place a value on precious assets\, such as houses and other financial securities; and allows us to price risk. \nOver the first two decades of the 21st century\, interest rates have sunk lower than ever before. Easy money after the global financial crisis in 2007–2008 has produced several ill effects\, including multiple asset price bubbles\, a reduction in productivity growth\, discouraging savings and exacerbated inequality\, and forcing yield-starved investors to take on excessive risk. The financial world now finds itself caught between a rock and a hard place\, and Edward Chancellor is here to tell us why. In The Price of Time\, he explores the history of interest and its essential function in determining how capital is allocated and priced. \nAbout the Speaker\nEdward Chancellor is the author of The Price of Time and Devil Take the Hindmost: A History of Financial Speculation\, a New York Times Notable Book of the Year. He also writes the specialist report Crunch-Time for Credit?\, a prescient analysis of the credit boom in the U.S. and the U.K. In addition\, Chancellor has edited two investment books\, Capital Account and Capital Returns. An award-winning financial journalist\, he is currently a columnist for Reuters Breakingviews and has contributed to many other publications\, including the Wall Street Journal\, MoneyWeek\, New York Review of Books\, and Financial Times.

SUMMARY:Trauma Spectrum Disorders: Reintegrating America's Returning Warriors
DESCRIPTION:Much attention is given to returning veterans with war-induced syndromes\, such as PTSD. An estimated 10% to 20% of returning soldiers have PTSD. The experiences of the other 80% to 90% are not as well understood\, including whether or not their experiences are clinically significant or indicative of psychosocial problems. There is a growing body of literature on subthreshold posttraumatic stress disorder\, but little empirical evidence on subthreshold PTSD and its implications. Reliance on diagnostic models of psychiatric disorders has led to a lack of investigation of the posttraumatic sequelae that do not meet the criteria for a PTSD diagnosis and has limited the way clinicians interact with returning veterans. \nThis class will discuss the subtle aspects of coming home from a war zone\, the nature of the subclinical presentation of PTSD\, and what social workers should be attuned to with respect to returning warriors. Intimate stories from real cases\, and Colonel Jeffrey S. Yarvis\, Ph.D.\, will use his own wartime experiences to explore the challenges associated with caring for warriors and their families when the warrior comes home with so-called war-induced trauma spectrum disorders\, military sexual trauma\, moral injuries\, substance use disorders\, intimacy and communication concerns\, and readjustment issues to the family\, the workplace\, and campus. Issues particular to female veterans and the role of social workers also will be addressed. Finally\, social justice and social impact issues will be considered\, as well. \nCompletion of this class will result in the receipt of 3 continuing education hours.

SUMMARY:Making Freedom Dreams Reality: Black Activism\, Constitutional Rights\, and the Ongoing Struggle for Liberation
DESCRIPTION:Fordham first celebrated Juneteenth\, also known as Freedom Day\, Jubilee Day\, Liberation Day\, and Emancipation Day\, in June 2020. Juneteenth commemorates June 19\, 1865\, when the announcement of General Order No. 3 by Union Army General Gordon Granger proclaimed African Americans’ freedom from slavery in the state of Texas\, roughly two months after the official end of the Civil War.\nAccording to our featured guest\, historian Allison Dorsey\, Ph.D.\, the true value of Juneteenth lies not in the idea of the “celebration” of freedom\, but in the way the story of Juneteenth captures the tension between Black freedom dreams and the violent actions by white citizens\, bolstered by the state\, to deny those dreams. The Juneteenth holiday also offers everyone an opportunity to learn about Black hopes and aspirations—and equally important—Black actions to secure liberty during Reconstruction\, and throughout the 160 years since President Abraham Lincoln first issued the Emancipation Proclamation.\nJoin the lecture via Zoom.\nAbout the Speaker\nDorsey is professor emerita of history at Swarthmore College\, where her research and teaching interests include the history of African Americans\, the 20th-century Civil Rights Movement\, African American film\, and food history. She is the author of numerous publications\, including To Build Our Lives Together: Community Formation in Black Atlanta\, 1875-1906 (University of Georgia Press\, 2007)\, “The great cry of our people is land! Black Settlement and Community Development on Ossabaw Island\, Georgia\, 1865-1900\,” published in African American Life in the Georgia Lowcountry: The Atlantic World and the Gullah Geechee (University of Georgia Press\,2010)\, and “We’ve Taken Old Gods and Given Them New Names’: The Spirit of Sankofa in Daughters of the Dust\,” published in Writing History with Lightening: Cinematic Representations of Nineteenth Century America (Louisiana State University Press\, 2019).\nDorsey was also founding director of the Swarthmore Summer Scholars Program (S3P) from 2014 to 2017\, and has returned to research on black freedmen along the Georgia seacoast.

SUMMARY:Susan Chevlowe on 'Missing Generations: Photographs by Jill Freedman'
DESCRIPTION:Susan Chevlowe\, Ph.D.\, will speak about the exhibition she organized at the Derfner Judaica Museum in Riverdale\, New York\, on view through July 16. The exhibition includes 36 black-and-white images by noted street photographer Jill Freedman (1939–2019)\, documenting sites of destruction and the resurgence of Jewish life after the Holocaust in Hungary\, Poland\, and the Czech Republic. Dating from 1993 to 1994\, they feature survivors at commemorative events at Auschwitz-Birkenau and the Warsaw Ghetto Memorial in Poland\, images from Terezín (Theresienstadt) in former Czechoslovakia\, and the Jewish quarters in Prague and Kraków\, as well as portraits of survivors in Florida and New York. Chevlowe will also discuss Freedman’s project in the context of work by other photographers in the decades after the Shoah who sought to represent the aftermath of this traumatic history in their images. \nJill Freedman gained acclaim for her photographs of Resurrection City—a six-week encampment organized by the Poor People’s Campaign on the Mall in Washington\, D.C.\, that took place after Martin Luther King’s death in 1968. She is also known for the work she did when she embedded with New York City firefighters in the Bronx and in Harlem in the 1970s\, and the NYPD from 1978 to 1981. Her work is in the collections of the Museum of Modern Art\, International Center of Photography\, George Eastman House\, Smithsonian American Art Museum\, New York Public Library\, Museum of Fine Arts\, Houston\, Bibliothèque Nationale\, Paris\, and more. \nAbout the Speaker\nSusan Chevlowe is chief curator and museum director of Derfner Judaica Museum and the Art Collection at Hebrew Home at Riverdale\, where she has organized numerous exhibitions since 2009\, including the museum’s ongoing exhibition\, “Tradition and Remembrance: Treasures of the Derfner Judaica Museum”\, and solo exhibitions of Leonard Freed\, Archie Rand\, and Jill Nathanson\, and many others. A former curator at the Jewish Museum in New York\, she organized such exhibitions as “Painting a Place in America: Jewish Artists in New York” (with Norman L. Kleeblatt)\, “Common Man”\, “Mythic Vision: The Paintings of Ben Shahn\, 1936-1962”\, and “The Jewish Identity Project: New American Photography.” She has also written or co-written accompanying catalog essays. An advisor to the Jewish Art Salon\, she is the author and contributor to numerous books and exhibition catalogs on Jewish visual culture. Chevlowe received her Ph.D. in art history from the Graduate Center\, CUNY.

SUMMARY:Physics & Engineering Physics Colloquium
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a presentation from Ben Coco\, a physics student in Fordham’s Department of Physics and Engineering Physics\, as he presents “Galactic Archaeology at Notre Dame” and “We are all star stuff\, but what about the stuff stars can’t make?” \nAll of the elements through iron can be formed in stars\, but what about the heavier elements? This is where galactic archaeology comes in\, the field of research on how the Milky Way formed. Globular clusters are regions of space that are densely filled with stars. The heavier elements are known as neutron capture elements and currently only have one confirmed source\, binary-neutron star mergers. However\, in a recently submitted paper to The Astrophysical Journal\, Evan Kirby found a relationship in globular cluster M92 that showed there has to be a second source of neutron capture elements. \nCoco’s research over the summer was in globular cluster M15 to investigate the origins of neutron capture elements to see if we would confirm this relationship or learn that globular cluster formation is unique to each globular cluster.
