SUMMARY:Continuing Education: Meaning-Centered Supervision – A Structured\, Self-Reflective Model for Healthcare Social Workers
DESCRIPTION:Completion of this class will result in the receipt of three (3) continuing education hours. \nRebecca Cammy will introduce participants to the novel meaning-centered supervision (MCS) curriculum (an adaptation of meaning-centered psychotherapy) which guides healthcare social workers in connecting a sense of meaning and purpose in work as they develop personal and professional identities. MCS includes seven structured sessions in which social workers craft narratives around themes of professional attitude\, living and creating work life\, and connections with the social work profession. In this workshop\, participants will be trained in the full MCS series concepts and themes and utilize the experiential exercises in a personal self-reflective meaning-making process. MCS curriculum materials will be provided for participants to utilize with their mentees in their own supervision practice. Application of the course material to additional staff support settings will also be discussed. \nAbout the Instructor\nRebecca “Becky” Cammy is the manager of social work for the oncology service line at the Sidney Kimmel Cancer Center at Thomas Jefferson University in Philadelphia. She was a 2021 Cambia Health Foundation Sojourns scholar and 2017 leadership fellow in the New York University Zelda Foster Studies program. Cammy is passionate about health care disparities and engaged in research to highlight best practices and link patient outcomes with psychosocial support services. She co-authored two chapters in the Oxford Textbook of Palliative Social Work\, 2nd edition (2022). Cammy has a small private practice specializing in serious illnesses\, including cancer diagnoses and chronic medical issues\, as well as grief\, loss\, and bereavement. She also runs a clinical supervision group for medical social workers. She earned her master’s in social work from the University of Pennsylvania in 2009 and is currently pursuing her doctorate in palliative care at the University of Maryland Baltimore.

SUMMARY:Julia Ng\, Daoism\, and Capitalism: Modern German Jewish Philosophy’s Encounter with China
DESCRIPTION:In the early decades of the 20th century\, major figures of modern German-Jewish thought converged upon Daoism as a source of capital-critical alternatives to state power. Ideas from China had been circulating in German-speaking lands since the 18th century of Leibniz and Kant\, largely facilitated by German and Dutch Jesuit and colonial networks. By the 1910s and ’20s\, translations of philosophical and literary classics and socio-political analyses enabled by a circuit of missionaries\, diplomats\, and scholar-enthusiasts had inspired Germanophone writers at large to adapt Chinese ideas in their works. Yet the German-Jewish reception was singular and pivotal to the emergence of what would later come to be known as the Frankfurt School of Critical Theory. Building on her recent work\, Julia Ng’s lecture focuses on one concept\, in particular\, that was broadly associated with Daoism—wu wei or ’non-action’—and its transformation by Martin Buber\, Franz Kafka\, Franz Rozenzweig\, and Walter Benjamin into variations of non-participation in the capitalist ethic\, non-conformity with the Christian-colonial project\, and non-absorption into the racialization of work prevalent in theories of political and economic activity to this day. \nDespite burgeoning interest in Daoism’s global reception and critical theory’s continuing relevance for analyzing transnational sociopolitical phenomena\, the historical-conceptual links between the two have received no critical attention. Using extensive new archival work to reconstruct early critical theory’s shared network of texts\, translators\, visitors\, and ideas concerning Daoism that issued from a China at the intersection of colonialism\, capitalism\, and revolution\, Ng proposes ways to begin investigating the impact of a concept from the global south on the development of this major movement within modern European philosophy. In doing so\, she calls attention to the possibility of reconfiguring critical theory’s resources for a world not organized solely around European paradigms of action and knowledge. Indeed\, she believes that the re-instantiation of the questions that Daoist ideas permitted early critical theory to pose speaks with urgency to our current predicaments involving infrastructure-based politics\, ecology\, and a globalized political economy organized increasingly around an “Asiatic mode of production.” \nMembers of the Fordham community may attend the event in person at the Lincoln Center campus\, in McMahon Hall room 109. \nAbout the Speaker\nJulia Ng is a senior lecturer in critical theory and co-director of the Centre for Philosophy and Critical Thought at Goldsmiths\, University of London. She is the co-editor and translator of the new critical edition of Walter Benjamin’s Toward the Critique of Violence (2021)\, as well as of Werner Hamacher’s Two Studies of Friedrich Hölderlin (2020)\, both of which appeared with Stanford University Press. Besides writing extensively on the links between modern mathematics\, political thought\, and theories of history and language particularly in the work of Benjamin and Scholem—including a co-edited Modern Language Notes Special Issue on “Walter Benjamin\, Gershom Scholem\, and the Marburg School” (2012) and articles on Cohen\, Meyerson\, and Reinach—she is also the author of essays on critical theory more broadly\, including on Agamben\, Derrida\, Descartes\, Hölderlin\, Kraus\, Marx\, Nelson\, Baudelaire\, and Sappho. She is currently working on a project on Daoism and capitalism while a research fellow at the Center for Jewish History and Fordham University.

SUMMARY:Continuing Education: Care in Context – Advance Care Planning and the Role of Social Work
DESCRIPTION:Our current healthcare system is fragmented and in need of transformation. Care is inequitably delivered and too often incongruent with patient preferences. Advance care planning conversations lay the foundation for person-centered\, family-focused\, culturally congruent\, goal-concordant quality care. Although ideally occurring over a lifetime\, advance care planning conversations are an essential element of primary palliative care and especially important for those who are seriously ill. Social workers have the clinical background to provide nuanced\, advance-care planning conversations and are often well-positioned to offer leadership in developing advance care planning programs within their organizations. This interactive workshop will explore best practices in advance care planning with a focus on the social work role. Advance care planning tools and resources will be provided. \nCompletion of this class will result in the receipt of 3 continuing education hours.

SUMMARY:Maeera Shreiber on Holy Envy: Writing in the Jewish Christian Borderzone
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a book launch and public lecture\, co-sponsored with the Center for Jewish History. \nOver the last 50 years\, Jewish-Christian dialogue has made enormous strides. We now read each other’s scriptures and openly discuss differences\, as well as contiguities. Yet\, many such encounters have become somewhat rote and predictable. Holy Envy: Writing in the Jewish Christian Borderzone seeks to sharpen the dialogue by inviting readers to push past familiar terrain and explore the complex emotional landscape that sometimes colors one’s relationship with the religious “Other.” Demonstrating how such emotions as shame\, envy\, and desire can inform these encounters\, Holy Envy charts a new way of thinking about interreligious relations. Moreover\, by focusing on modern and contemporary writers who traffic in the volatile space between Judaism and Christianity\, the book calls attention to how these emotionally intense interactions make for creative possibilities. Holy Envy will engage readers who are interested in literature\, religion\, and\, above all\, interfaith dialogue. \nMaeera Y. Shreiber is an associate professor of English and former director of Religious Studies at the University of Utah\, where she teaches and writes about poetry\, Jewish American literature\, ethnic American studies\, religious studies\, and interfaith relations. Shreiber is the author of\, among other books\, Singing in a Strange Land: A Jewish American Poetics (2007). \nThis in-person event will also be livestreamed on Zoom for those unable to attend in person. Please indicate how you will attend during registration.

SUMMARY:Sustainable Self-Care for Social Workers
DESCRIPTION:While most social workers are well aware of the importance of self-care\, this knowledge doesn’t necessarily translate into robust self-care practices. Today’s social workers are more in need than ever of accessible methods for contending with the threats posed by burnout. This class draws on a variety of Ayurvedic practices that social workers can incorporate into a sustainable and effective self-care plan. It will start with an overview of Ayurveda\, a holistic medical system premised on balancing our nervous systems\, minds\, bodies\, and spirits via simple\, daily lifestyle habits. This workshop provides an overview of some of Ayurveda’s core daily habits and how they can help social workers manage burnout symptoms. Practiced regularly\, these habits balance our circadian rhythms\, lead to deeper states of restoration and rest\, and achieve a shift from feeling overwhelmed toward ease in mind and body. Ayurvedic tools like rhythmic eating practices for healthy digestion\, self-massage for grounding the nervous system\, and meditation for mental and emotional stability are central to this workshop. We will also discuss methods for effectively integrating new self-care habits. The importance of workplace culture\, leadership buy-in and modeling of self-care\, and collective self-care will also be discussed. The workshop will conclude with a solution-focused group exercise for creating a simple self-care action plan. \nTwo continuing education hours will be offered upon completion of the course.

SUMMARY:Pulitzer Prize-Winning Author Ian Johnson on "China’s New Civil Religion: A Challenge and Opportunity for the West"
DESCRIPTION:When outsiders think of religion in China\, they tend to focus on persecution; for example\, Muslims in Xinjiang or Christians in many big Chinese cities. While that is true for some faiths\, China is in the midst of a religious boom\, one that the government is trying to use to further its grip on power. \nIn this lecture\, Ian Johnson\, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Souls of China: The Return of Religion After Mao\, argues that as the Chinese Communist Party seeks to maintain its hold on power\, authorities are building something similar to the American “civil religion” that Robert Bellah described half a century ago. Johnson will discuss how Beijing is combining patriotism with local faiths\, especially Buddhism\, Taoism\, and folk religion. But\, he asks\, can authoritarianism and religious life coexist? What are the risks as the Beijing government embraces some religions while opposing others? \nThis presentation and audience conversation could not come at a more critical time\, as China is vying for prominence on the world stage with the United States while also keeping an eye on growing unrest at home. Both globally and domestically\, religion is once again at the center of questions about China’s future. \nJohnson lived and studied in China for more than 20 years and now works at the Council on Foreign Relations in New York City\, where he researches social trends in China. \nDavid Gibson\, director of Fordham’s Center on Religion and Culture\, will moderate a discussion after the talk\, including questions from the audience. \nThis event is co-organized with the U.S.-China Catholic Association.

SUMMARY:Remembering: Talking About the Holocaust in the 21st Century
DESCRIPTION:Fordham University and the Under-Told Stories Project of the University of St. Thomas in Minnesota\, in partnership with the Museum of Jewish Heritage in New York\, invite you to a special observance of International Holocaust Remembrance Day. \nRecent surveys have shown steadily diminishing public awareness of the Holocaust amid a rise in disinformation and revisionism. This panel of leading thinkers will discuss how media\, educators\, religious institutions\, and governments can fight Holocaust denial and deepen understanding of the genocide. What is the role of allies? \nThe discussion will begin with a screening of Fred de Sam Lazaro’s 2022 PBS NewsHour segment on the children’s book Nicky & Vera: A Quiet Hero of the Holocaust and the Children He Rescued. Written and illustrated by Peter Sís\, it tells the story of Nicholas Winton\, the “British Schindler\,” who helped 669 children escape Czechoslovakia just before Nazi occupation. \nThe panelists will delve into the conditions that allowed the ripening and spread of antisemitism in the years leading up to the Holocaust\, and they will bring home the relevance of those circumstances today. \nModerators \n\nFred de Sam Lazaro\, correspondent/director\, The Under-Told Stories Project\nPeter Osnos\, founder\, PublicAffairs Books\n\nPanelists \n\nJudy Woodruff\, anchor\, PBS NewsHour\nMagda Teter\, Shvidler Chair in Judaic Studies\, Fordham University\nJames Loeffler\, Jay Berkowitz Professor of Jewish History\, University of Virginia\nLinda Kinstler\, author\, Come to This Court and Cry: How the Holocaust Ends\n\nSpecial Guest: Eva Paddock\, Educator and One of “Winton’s Children” Rescued from Czechoslovakia on the Eve of World War II \nA reception will follow the discussion at 7 p.m.

SUMMARY:Trauma-Informed Health Care When You’re Not “Doing Therapy”
DESCRIPTION:Trauma-informed care is more than just the newest catchphrase: It’s a paradigmatic shift away from delineating the traumas themselves and aids the clinician in focusing on a person having traumatic responses. In health care\, where long-term trauma therapy is not often the focus of work\, it’s necessary to help clinicians better understand how trauma-informed care can help them provide more attuned and more regulating interventions\, no matter how short the session time—or even if you’re sitting on a patient’s bedside commode for the meeting. The role of trauma-informed stabilization and psychoeducation in health care will be explored. Recognizing how our bodies respond to adversity\, and how this manifests in and is impacted by the experience of illness and health care\, can better inform targeted\, short-term interventions and crisis work. \nThe class is experiential and may be evocative\, and requires focused\, active participation and reflection. Two continuing education hours will be offered upon completion of the course.

SUMMARY:Gregory K. Hillis Talks Thomas Merton\, and What His Affair with a Nurse Taught Him About Love and Humility
DESCRIPTION:We learned from Thomas Merton’s private journals—published 25 years after his death—of an affair Merton had in the summer of 1966 with a nurse (“M”) who cared for him after a medical procedure. If we take seriously Merton’s status and contributions as a Catholic thinker\, then Merton’s description of his relationship with “M” needs to be considered. And from Merton’s account\, we not only get a sense of his own shortcomings\, but we see him honestly grappling with those shortcomings. Merton wrestled with his own failures and did so in journals he knew would be published without restrictions. Merton’s unwillingness to be known apart from his foibles\, apart from the complexity of who he was as a human being striving to do God’s will\, manifests a level of humility that merits recognition. \nThis lecture will delve into Merton’s account of his relationship with “M\,” not to defend this relationship or to give it a sympathetic treatment\, but rather to explore what Merton’s account tells us about how he viewed himself\, his relationship with God\, and his relationship with his fellow monks in light of this affair.

SUMMARY:Common Practice Challenges: Working with People Impacted by Cancer
DESCRIPTION:Caring for those impacted by cancer is an increasingly common occurrence\, regardless of a social worker’s practice setting. As our population ages\, more people are diagnosed\, and although treatments have significantly prolonged life for many\, cancer is still a leading cause of death in the U.S. and across the world. And unfortunately\, treatment for cancer may have negative effects on a person’s quality of life for decades. The impacts of a cancer diagnosis and its treatment are felt not just by the person living with the illness\, but by their family\, care partners\, and communities—and may last across generations. Earlier discharges and more complicated treatment regimes are dependent upon others devoting time and attention to caring for ever-sicker patients at home. \nThe financial toxicity associated with rising medical costs is tremendous and the No. 1 cause of personal bankruptcy. These burdens of cancer care are inequitably distributed\, with disparities in outcomes associated with marginalized populations. Delayed diagnoses\, limited access to quality care\, lack of adequate insurance\, and greater social risk factors are all associated with poorer outcomes and offer opportunities for social work advocacy and intervention. \nThis interactive workshop will provide social workers in a range of settings with information needed to recognize and better address the impacts of cancer on all those they serve. Three continuing education hours will be offered upon completion of the course.

SUMMARY:Financial Issues Forum: Alan Blinder on A Monetary and Fiscal History of the United States\, 1961–2021
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a virtual event with Alan Blinder\, one of the world’s most influential economists\, as he discusses his latest book\, in conversation with renowned economic historian and former Museum of American Finance chairman Richard Sylla. In A Monetary and Fiscal History of the United States\, 1961–2021\, Blinder draws on his deep firsthand experience to provide an authoritative account of 60 years of monetary and fiscal policy in the United States. Spanning 12 presidents\, from John F. Kennedy to Joe Biden\, and eight Federal Reserve chairs\, from William McChesney Martin to Jerome Powell\, this is an insider’s story of macroeconomic policy that hasn’t been told before. \nFocusing on the most significant developments and long-term changes\, Blinder traces the highs and lows of monetary and fiscal policy\, which have cooperated and clashed through recessions and several long booms over the past six decades. From the fiscal policy of Kennedy’s New Frontier to Biden’s responses to the pandemic\, the book takes readers through the stagflation of the 1970s\, the conquest of inflation under Jimmy Carter and Paul Volcker\, the rise of Reaganomics\, and the bubbles of the 2000s before bringing the story up through recent events―including the financial crisis\, the Great Recession\, and monetary policy during COVID-19. \nAbout the Speakers\nAlan Blinder is a professor of economics and public affairs at Princeton University and a regular columnist for the Wall Street Journal. He served as a member of President Bill Clinton’s original Council of Economic Advisers and then as vice chair of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System from 1993 to 1996. Blinder has written scores of scholarly articles and authored or co-authored 21 books\, including bestsellers After the Music Stopped (2013) and Advice and Dissent (2018). \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. \nAdvance registration is required.

SUMMARY:Physics and Engineering Physics Colloquium
DESCRIPTION:Jeremy Tinker\, Ph.D.\, associate professor of physics at NYU\, will present “The History of the Universe from 1919 to Today.” \nFrom the Speaker:\nI will review some of the fundamental observations that have led us to the understanding that the universe is not only expanding but that this expansion is currently accelerating. I will begin with the observational tests of Einstein’s general relativity\, move on to dense star clusters seen in the halo of the milky way galaxy\, and then to the information contained within maps of the radiation left over from the Big Bang. All of these observations contain clues as to the age\, size\, and shape of the universe\, leading to the counter-intuitive conclusion that the universe is filled with some form of “dark energy” that is exponentially accelerating the expansion of the universe.

SUMMARY:An Anti-Oppression Framework for Social Work Practice
DESCRIPTION:Social workers are well-positioned to provide high-quality\, culturally responsive care rooted in an anti-oppression framework that attends to historic harms. In fact\, it is an obligation of a profession that is rooted in social justice. Yet social workers still cause harm and are complicit to racism in micro\, mezzo\, and macro practice. This two-part class will introduce and build upon concepts\, theoretical foundations\, and social work history to build a platform by which social workers can actively engage in social work practice rooted in anti-oppression and contribute to decolonizing across systems. The class will provide opportunities for participants to engage in self-reflection and interrogate the roots of social work practice. \nFour continuing education hours will be offered upon completion of the course.

SUMMARY:Financial Issues Forum: J .Bradford DeLong on Slouching Towards Utopia an Economic History of the 20th Century
DESCRIPTION:Before 1870\, much of humanity lived in dire poverty\, with a slow crawl of invention offset by a growing population. Then came a great shift: Invention sprinted forward\, doubling our technological capabilities each generation and utterly transforming the economy again and again. Our ancestors would have presumed we’d use such powers to build a utopia. But it was not so. Instead\, when the period between 1870 and 2010 ended\, the world saw climate change; economic depression\, uncertainty\, and inequality; and broad rejection of the status quo. \nEconomist Brad DeLong’s Slouching Towards Utopia tells the story of how this unprecedented explosion of material wealth occurred\, how it transformed the globe\, and why it failed to deliver us to utopia. Of remarkable breadth and ambition\, it reveals the last century to have been less a march of progress than a slouch in the right direction. \nThis event is co-sponsored with the CFA Society New York and the Museum of American Finance.
