SUMMARY:Centennial Speaker Series: Ted Seides on Capital Allocators: How the World's Elite Money Managers Lead and Invest
DESCRIPTION:The chief endowment officers at foundations\, family offices\, pension funds\, and sovereign wealth funds are the leaders in the world of finance. They marshal trillions of dollars on behalf of their institutions and influence how capital flows throughout the world. But these elite investors live outside of the public eye. Across the entire investment industry\, few participants understand how these holders of the keys to the kingdom allocate their time and their capital. What’s more\, there is no formal training for how to do their work. \nSo\, how do these influential leaders practice their craft? What skills do they require? What frameworks do they employ? How do they make investment decisions on everything from hiring managers to portfolio construction? \nJoin us for an afternoon webinar between author Ted Seides as he discusses his new book\, Capital Allocators\, with Jonathan Brolin\, founder and managing partner of Edenbrook Capital LLC\, on this opaque corner of the investment landscape. \nAgenda\n12 p.m.: Welcome Remarks: Paul Johnson\, finance professor\, founding partner and investment manager\, Nicusa Capital Partners \n12:05 p.m.: Speaker Introduction: Jonathan Brolin\, founder and managing partner of Edenbrook Capital LLC \n12:08 p.m.: Discussion: Ted Seides \n12:45 p.m.: Audience Q&A \n1 p.m.: Closing Remarks: Paul Johnson \nAbout the Speakers\nTed Seides created Capital Allocators LLC to explore best practices in the asset management industry. He launched the Capital Allocators podcast in 2017\, and the show reached 6 million downloads in June 2021. Brunswick Group named it the top institutional investing podcast\, and Barron’s\, Business Insider\, Forbes\, and ValueWalk each named it among the top investing podcasts. Alongside the podcast\, Seides advises both managers and allocators\, compounding his knowledge and relationships to help them make more money. In March\, he published his second book\, Capital Allocators: How the World’s Elite Money Managers Lead and Invest\, which distills key lessons from the first 150 episodes of the podcast. \nJonathan Brolin is the founder and managing partner of Edenbrook Capital LLC\, which he founded in 2011. Edenbrook takes a private equity approach to public markets\, principally through concentrated\, long-term investments in small- and mid-cap companies. This approach involves identifying equities that are undervalued on a fundamental basis\, performing intensive research on companies and industries\, understanding existing and potential levers for creating value\, and collaborating with management teams and/or other constituents to unlock shareholder value over a multiyear period. Brolin currently serves on the board of directors of Frequency Electronics Inc. and CXO Nexus Inc. \nBrolin has 25 years of experience in public and private equity investing and investment banking. In addition\, he serves as a fellow at the Gabelli Center for Global Security Analysis and taught Advanced Topics in Value Investing for seven years as an adjunct professor of finance at the Gabelli School of Business. He earned his M.B.A. from Columbia Business School\, where he was a member of the Beta Gamma Sigma honor society. Brolin earned his B.A. from the University of Pennsylvania\, where he was a Benjamin Franklin scholar and general honors student. When he’s not searching for value\, he can be found watching\, coaching\, playing\, or thinking about baseball. \nCopies of Capital Allocators will be raffled off to attendees. \nThis event is co-sponsored with the CFA Society New York\, the Gabelli Center for Global Security Analysis\, and the Museum of American Finance.

SUMMARY:2021 Anastasi Lecture: “(Predicting) Replication Outcomes”
DESCRIPTION:Professor Anna Dreber\, Stockholm School on Economics\, will deliver the 2021 Anastasi Lecture\, titled “(Predicting) Replication Outcomes.” \nhttps://fordham.zoom.us/j/88605480413?pwd=M3Y1R3I2TmNSZmViQnRqWTFsTDliQT09 \nWhich results can we “trust?” What share of results are replicated in different kinds of literature in the experimental social sciences? I will discuss several recent\, large replication projects\, mainly in psychology and economics\, in which my coauthors and I have redone experiments published in high-impact journals with new and larger samples to see whether the main result replicates. I will also discuss our studies on “wisdom-of-crowds” mechanisms\, such as prediction markets and forecasting surveys in which researchers attempt to predict these replication outcomes\, as well as new outcomes. While the replications are mainly on experiments\, there are reasons to believe that the problems are worse in nonexperimental work. I will also discuss ways to increase the reliability of scientific results.

SUMMARY:A Bronx Tale: Building a Career in the Credit Markets\, Fireside Chat with Bob O’Shea\, Moderated by Michael Gatto
DESCRIPTION:Bob O’Shea was the quintessential Fordham student. A scrappy kid from New Jersey\, his grandmother worked as a maid at the Waldorf Astoria in midtown Manhattan\, his father was a New York City cop\, and he himself was accepted to Fordham on a track and field scholarship. O’Shea’s success on Wall Street is the epitome of the American dream. Michael Gatto\, an adjunct professor at Fordham\, will be interviewing O’Shea about his meteoric rise on Wall Street. O’Shea was offered partnership at Goldman Sachs at age 29\, making him the second-youngest partner in the firm’s history. Then\, as a second act\, O’Shea co-founded Silver Point Capital\, a credit and special situations hedge fund\, in 2002. He subsequently grew the firm from $120 million in assets under management to $15 billion. \nProfessor Gatto will ask O’Shea to speak about several topics\, including his career and the things that made him so successful\, his views of the current credit markets\, and his advice for students and young professionals on how to build a successful career in credit. \nAgenda\n12 p.m.: Welcome Remarks: Donna Rapaccioli\, dean\, Gabelli School of Business \n12:05 p.m.: Speaker Introductions: Father Joseph M. McShane\, S.J. \n12:10 p.m.: Discussion: Bob O’Shea and Michael Gatto \n12:45 p.m.: Audience Q&A \n1 p.m.: Closing Remarks: Donna Rapaccioli \nAbout the Speakers\nO’Shea is co-founder and chairman of Silver Point Capital\, a private investment firm\, founded in 2002 and focused on credit and special situation investing throughout credit cycles. O’Shea was co-CEO at the firm from 2002 until 2011 at which time he became chairman. Today\, Silver Point manages more than $15 billion of assets under management across hedge fund\, private equity\, and direct lending strategies. Headquartered in Greenwich\, Connecticut\, the firm has approximately 180 employees\, including more than 60 investment professionals. \nPrior to founding Silver Point\, O’Shea worked at Goldman Sachs for 10 years. He joined Goldman in 1990 to found and build the firm’s global bank loan business. During his tenure at Goldman Sachs\, in addition to building the global bank loan business\, he also became the global head of the high yield business unit\, leading the firm’s high-yield bond and bank loan underwriting\, trading\, sales\, capital markets and research\, and the collateralized debt obligation (CDO) business. O’Shea was a member of Goldman’s risk committee\, which was responsible for managing the firm’s global risk exposure. He was also on the board of Goldman Sachs international bank and senior traders committee. He was elected general partner in 1994. Prior to working at Goldman Sachs\, he worked at Bear Stearns in the high yield department and Security Pacific Bank in the Merchant Banking Group. O’Shea graduated from Fordham University with a B.S. in finance. \nGatto was one of the first employees at Silver Point Capital\, a credit-focused hedge fund. After joining the firm in April 2002\, he became the first non-founding partner in January 2003. He has helped grow the business from $120 million of assets under management in 2002 to approximately $15 billion currently. Today\, he is the head of the firm’s private side businesses. Prior to joining Silver Point\, Gatto worked at Goldman Sachs as a senior member within the special situations investing business. \nGatto has served on numerous boards\, which have included specialty retailer Party City and New Cotai Holdings (a Macau gaming company)\, and he was chairman of the board of Quinn Industries\, an Irish Industrial company. Outside of Silver Point\, Gatto is an adjunct professor at Columbia Business School and Fordham University’s Gabelli School of Business\, where he teaches courses on credit analysis\, and distressed value and special situation investing. Gatto received an M.B.A. from Columbia Business School and a B.A. in economics from Cornell University. \nThis event is co-sponsored with the CFA Society New York\, the Gabelli Center for Global Security Analysis\, and the Museum of American Finance. \nAll press and recordings are strictly prohibited.

SUMMARY:Physics & Engineering Physics Lecture
DESCRIPTION:Yacine Ali-Haimoud\, Ph.D.\, assistant professor\, Department of Physics\, New York University\, will present\, “Hunting for Dark Matter in the Early Universe.” \nIt is now well-established that a large part of the matter in the universe is some substance that appears to be oblivious to any force but gravity. The nature of this “dark matter” remains a mystery—and is one of the most important questions in modern physics. Could it be a new particle\, as light as an electron\, or might it be made of black holes as massive as many suns? \nIn this talk\, Ali-Haimoud will start by giving a brief overview of modern cosmology\, focusing on the cosmic microwave background (CMB). He will then explain how cosmologists can be so sure about the presence and amount of dark matter\, and illustrate how precise measurements of the frequency spectrum and angular fluctuations of the CMB can help shed light on the nature and properties of dark matter. Ali-Haimoud will discuss CMB tests of feeble dark matter interactions with photons\, electrons\, and nuclei\, as well as the signatures of accreting primordial black holes as a potential dark matter candidate.

SUMMARY:The Juncture of Worlds: Scholarship As a Way of Life and Living As a Scholarly Practice
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the 17th annual Rita Cassella Jones Lecture on Women and Catholicism. The university began in the Middle Ages as an extension of Catholic monasticism\, an intellectual world separate and apart from the practice of everyday life. In many ways\, advanced scholarship retains something of its original monastic flavor. Academics are taught to keep a respectable distance from their subjects\, to aim for objectivity\, to cultivate detachment. But what are we missing when we constrain scholarship within these normative dimensions? What else might we learn—about the past\, about others\, about even ourselves—if we let down our guard and sidle up close to and alongside our subjects of study? \nIn dialogue with her most recent work on Catholic narratives of sickness and disability in early modern French North America\, Mary Corley Dunn\, Ph.D.\, University of St. Louis\, articulates a vision for a more humane kind of scholarship beyond the ivory tower—a kind of scholarship that sits at the juncture of the personal and the professional\, lived experience and archival record\, scholarly practice and everyday life. \nVisit the website to learn more about the Curran Center.

SUMMARY:Jewish Studies and Black Studies in Conversation Series: Black and Jewish in Early America
DESCRIPTION:Even as recently as the early 2000s\, when a large range of scholarship was dedicated to Black-Jewish relations\, nearly all of these discussions were framed by a Black-Jewish binary\, with Jews on one side and Blacks on the other. Such a history\, however\, ignores not only the experiences of Jews of color in the U.S. today\, but also in the past. In this conversation between Fordham’s Westenley Alcenat and Laura Leibman\, professor\, Reed College\, the latter draws from her new book about a multiracial Jewish family in the early Atlantic world to illustrate how emphasizing the long history of Jews of color forces us to reshape and reconsider what we know about Jews in the Americas. \nAbout the Speakers\nLeibman is a professor of English and humanities at Reed College in Portland\, Oregon\, and author of The Art of the Jewish Family: A History of Women in Early New York in Five Objects (Bard Graduate Center\, 2020)\, which won three National Jewish Book Awards. Her earlier book\, Messianism\, Secrecy and Mysticism: A New Interpretation of Early American Jewish Life (2012)\, won a Jordan Schnitzer Book Award and a National Jewish Book Award. Her work focuses on religion and the daily lives of women and children in early America\, and uses everyday objects to help bring their stories back to life. She has been a visiting fellow at Oxford University\, a Fulbright scholar at the University of Utrecht and the University of Panama\, and the Leon Levy Foundation Professor of Jewish Material Culture at Bard Graduate Center. \nAlcenat is a 19th-century historian of the U.S and Caribbean who teaches at Fordham. His scholarship covers the shared histories of African Americans and Afro-Caribbean people in connection with the wider African diaspora in the Atlantic world. His manuscript in revision\, “Children of Africa\, Shall Be Haytians: Prince Saunders and the Foundations of Black Emigration to Haiti\, 1775-1865\,” is a study of the radicalism and ideologies of African American settlers who emigrated to Haiti in the antebellum era. Alcenat is a past recipient of the Richard Hofstadter Fellowship from Columbia University. He has been awarded fellowships from the Library Company of Philadelphia\, the Massachusetts Historical Society\, the Hoover Institute’s Library and Archives\, the Woodrow Wilson Foundation\, the Social Science Research Council-Mellon Mays Graduate Initiative Grants\, the Gilder Lehrman Institute of American History\, and the Schomburg Center for Research in African-American Culture. \nFrom 2015 to 2016\, he was a visiting scholar at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and a visiting associate fellow at the Weatherhead Initiative on Global History at Harvard University. Before arriving to Princeton\, he was a residential postdoctoral research associate at the Gilder Lehrman Center for the Study of Slavery\, Resistance\, and Abolition at Yale University’s MacMillan Center. Alcenat has written or provided commentary for The Jacobin Magazine\, Theroot.com\, and The Immanent Frame. He is also a contributing guest writer for the Black Perspectives Blog\, the official publication of the African American Intellectual History Society.

SUMMARY:Is it Time to Decolonize the Terms Byzantine & Byzantium?
DESCRIPTION:The people we call “Byzantine” self-defined as “Romans.” The terms “Byzantium” and “Byzantine” were first employed by Western scholars more than a century after the Ottoman conquest of Constantinople in an effort to differentiate what they perceived to be the authentic Roman empire from its later\, eastern\, and Christian derivation. For centuries\, these terms circulated within Western scholarship with a not-so-subtle sense of derogatory critique (e.g.\, Edward Gibbon). Perhaps ironically\, “Byzantine” and “Byzantium” were subsequently embraced among Orthodox Christian populations who tend to view the period as a golden age of Orthodox civilization. This expert panel\, moderated by George Demacopoulos\, Fordham University\, will explore these issues and debate the viability/suitability of revising the terminology for the field. \nPanelists\nElizabeth Bolman\, Case Western Reserve University\nAnthony Kaldelis\, Ohio State University\nLeonora Neville\, University of Wisconsin\nAlexander Tudorie\, St. Vladimir’s Orthodox Theological Seminary

SUMMARY:The Russia Question Hosts Nadieszda Kizenko for a Book Talk
DESCRIPTION:The Russia Question is a book talk series devoted to all things Russia\, hosted by Michael Ossorgin\, professor and Russian program director at Fordham University’s Lincoln Center campus\, with generous support from the Orthodox Christian Studies Center. Join us for a book talk with Nadieszda Kizenko to discuss her brilliant book\, Good for the Souls: A History of Confession in the Russian Empire (June 2021). \nFrom the moment that Tsars\, as well as hierarchs\, realized that having their subjects go to confession could make them better citizens as well as better Christians\, the sacrament of penance in the Russian empire became a political tool\, a devotional exercise\, a means of education\, and a literary genre. It defined who was Orthodox\, and who was “other.” First encouraging Russian subjects to participate in confession to improve them and to integrate them into a reforming Church and state\, authorities then turned to confession to integrate converts of other nationalities. But the sacrament was not only something that state and religious authorities sought to impose on an unwilling populace. Confession could provide an opportunity for carefully crafted complaints. What state and church authorities initially imagined as a way of controlling an unruly population could be used by the same population as a way of telling their own story—or simply getting time off to attend to their inner lives. \nGood for the Souls brings Russia into the rich scholarly and popular literature on confession\, penance\, discipline\, and gender in the modern world\, and in doing so opens a key window into church\, state\, and society. It draws on state laws\, Synodal decrees\, archives\, manuscript repositories\, clerical guides\, sermons\, saints’ lives\, works of literature\, and visual depictions of the sacrament in those books and on church iconostases. Russia\, Ukraine\, and Orthodox Christianity emerge both as part of the European\, transatlantic religious continuum and\, in crucial ways\, distinct from it. \nAbout the Speakers\nNadieszda Kizenko is a history professor and director of religious studies at the University at Albany. She is the author of the prize-winning book A Prodigal Saint: Father John of Kronstadt and the Russian People\, numerous articles on Orthodox Christianity including “The Feminization of Patriarchy? Women in Contemporary Russian Orthodoxy” (winner of Best Article\, Association for the Study of Eastern Christianity)\, and several translations. \nMichael Ossorgin\, who earned a Ph.D. in Slavic languages and literature from Columbia University\, teaches Russian and comparative literature\, art\, theology\, and language courses at Fordham University’s Lincoln Center campus. He has published articles on Dostoevsky’s The Idiot and Notes From the Dead House. He is currently writing a book on the role of vision in Dostoevsky’s poetics. Ossorgin thanks the Orthodox Christian Studies Center for its support not only of The Russia Question\, but also for grants to design and teach OCSC-credited courses\, including\, The Apocalypse: Russian and American Visions\, The Russian Icon in Dialogue with the Arts\, and the first of three summer courses in The Great Russian Minds Series on Mikhail Bakhtin. Ossorgin is the director of Fordham University’s Russian program.

SUMMARY:Things Get Broken: A Jesuit Reflects on Leonard Bernstein’s MASS 50 Years Later
DESCRIPTION:On September 8\, 1971\, the premiere of Leonard Bernstein’s MASS inaugurated the Kennedy Center in Washington\, D.C. Commissioned by Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis in memory of her late husband\, the work bore the weight of a decade of sorrows: the assassinations of President John F. Kennedy\, his brother Robert\, and Martin Luther King Jr.; racial unrest over civil rights; ongoing losses in the Vietnam War; the recent Kent State shootings; and much more. \nIn this lecture\, Stephen Schloesser\, SJ\, will explore not only Bernstein’s masterpiece—and its incorporation of Jewish and Catholic liturgical elements—but also its resonance for our present moment as we try to emerge from a lethal pandemic in the face of grave threats to our civic order. \nThis event inaugurates the Ignatian year at Fordham\, a global observance by the Society of Jesus to commemorate the moment 500 years ago when a cannonball shattered the leg of Ignatius of Loyola. The wound put an end to his youthful dreams of personal glory but started Ignatius on a journey of conversion. \nLoss was not the last word for Loyola—as it was not for Bernstein\, whose music provides both lament and hope after a broken year. \nSchloesser\, Professor of History at Loyola University Chicago\, specializes in modern European intellectual and cultural life and writes extensively on music\, religion\, mysticism\, Jesuits\, and Catholic thought and culture. \nDavid Gibson\, director of Fordham’s Center on Religion and Culture\, will moderate the discussion\, including questions from the audience.

SUMMARY:“Unearthing Buried Narratives: Reconstructing the Experiences of Enslaved People Through Jesuit Records”
DESCRIPTION:Recalling the Catholic enslaved experience reveals new patterns about enslavement within the Catholic Church and the instrumental ways enslaved people formed community\, resisted their enslavement\, and shaped their faith. Prize-winning scholar Kelly L. Schmidt\, Ph.D.\, invites the audience to engage with records about enslaved people in Jesuit archives\, cross-referencing them and reading against the grain to discover the limitations resulting from enslaved people being prevented from keeping records about their own lives.

SUMMARY:2021 Fordham Reads Dante Lecture: “What’s a Dante Theme Park? Reading and Writing The Divine Comedy Into the American Present”
DESCRIPTION:Writer and professor Randy Boyagoda\, Ph.D.\, University of Toronto\, has been reading a canto of The Divine Comedy every day for the past five years while writing a novel about people building a Dante theme park in an opioid-ravaged American small town. In this talk and reading from his new novel\, Dante’s Indiana\, he will reflect on what it means to imagine contemporary life with and through Dante’s vision of eternal sinners and saints. In turn\, he will consider what the perils and promises of Inferno and Paradiso mean for our own lives in a purgatorial-feeling here and now.
