SUMMARY:Mika Ahuvia Discusses On My Right Michael\, On My Left Gabriel: Angels in Ancient Jewish Culture
DESCRIPTION:Angelic beings can be found throughout the Hebrew Bible\, and by late antiquity\, the archangels Michael and Gabriel were as familiar as the patriarchs and matriarchs\, guardian angels were as present as one’s shadow\, and praise of the seraphim was as sacred as the Shema. In her book\, Mika Ahuvia demonstrates that angels were foundational to ancient Judaism. Ancient Jewish practice centered on humans’ complex relationships with these invisible beings who acted as their intermediaries\, role models\, and guardians. Bringing non-canonical sources into view—incantation bowls\, amulets\, mystical texts\, and liturgical poetry—Ahuvia shows that when ancient men and women sought access to divine aid\, they turned not only to their rabbis\, or to God alone\, but often also to the angels. On My Right Michael\, On My Left Gabriel allows these overlooked stories\, interactions\, and rituals to take center stage\, offering a new entry point to the history of Judaism and the wider ancient Mediterranean and Near Eastern world in which it flourished. \nAbout the Speaker\nAhuvia is the Marsha and Jay Glazer Endowed Chair in Jewish Studies and an assistant professor in the Jackson School of International Studies at the University of Washington. She researches the formative history of Jewish and Christian communities in the ancient Mediterranean world\, specializing in rabbinic sources\, liturgical poetry\, magical texts\, early mystical literature\, and archaeological evidence. Her first book\, On My Right Michael\, On My Left Gabriel: Angels in Ancient Jewish Culture (University of California Press\, June 2021)\, uncovers how angels made their way into the practices and worldview of ancient Jews\, and makes sense of why angels continue to play such an important role within and outside of institutional religious settings.

Participants will be invited to share their personal and professional introductions to death. We will also consider our strengths and weaknesses as advocates. Finally\, we will practice some easy exercises to help ourselves remain grounded despite the whirlwind of emotions around us. \nCompletion of this class will result in the receipt of four continuing education hours. \nAbout the Instructor\nJennifer Halpern is a senior medical and certified palliative social worker based at the Oncology Support Program (OSP) of the Westchester Medical Center Network/Health Alliance of the Hudson Valley.

SUMMARY:Physics & Engineering Physics
DESCRIPTION:John D. Cunningham\, S.J.\, department chair and associate professor of physics and engineering physics at Fordham University\, will present\, “Collecting Data on the Stellar Parameters of Red Giant Stars Using VATT: Vatican Advanced Technology Telescope.” \nFrom February 16–19\, 2020\, three Jesuits took spectrographs of two groups of open clusters (NGC 6791 and NGC 6913)\, each containing 35 red giant stars using Vatican advanced technology telescope (VATT)\, located within the Mount Graham International Observatory in Safford\, Arizona. Our aim was to test a method that could benefit the study of star formation and the chemical evolution of the stellar populations of the galaxy. The talk will cover why Jesuits study stars\, how the challenges of data collection are addressed\, why VATT is best suited for this study\, and how the results will benefit astronomical research.

SUMMARY:Earth\, Spirit\, and Race: Confronting America’s Legacy of Food Injustice and Discrimination
DESCRIPTION:Chattel slavery\, institutional racism\, and government policies alienated enslaved people and their descendants from the land. This continues to result in food insecurity\, poor health\, and property loss. Today\, less than 2 percent of working farms are owned by Black Americans. \nActivists\, gardeners\, authors\, and farmers are rediscovering Black America’s rich agricultural heritage and its roots in spirituality and religious traditions. They are advocating for a new and empowering relationship with food production and the natural world. One of the leading voices of this new movement is Soul Fire Farm. Located in upstate New York\, Soul Fire Farm is “an Afro-Indigenous-centered community farm committed to uprooting racism and seeding sovereignty in the food system.” \nTo mark Earth Day\, Soul Fire Farm’s co-director will join us from the farm for a panel discussion to explore these issues and how the audience themselves might work toward a more equitable food system. \nPanelists \nLeah Penniman is the co-director and farm manager of Soul Fire Farm. She is the author of Farming While Black: Soul Fire Farm’s Practical Guide to Liberation on the Land and a 2019 recipient of the James Beard Foundation Leadership Award. \nRufus Burnett Jr. is an assistant professor of theology at Fordham University and he has written about the blues\, decolonial theology\, and the Black American experience. He is the author of Decolonizing Revelation: A Spatial Reading of the Blues. \nDavid Goodwin\, assistant director of Fordham’s Center on Religion and Culture\, will moderate the discussion\, including questions from the online audience.

SUMMARY:Centennial Speaker Series: John F. Wasik on Lincolnomics: How President Lincoln Constructed the Great American Economy
DESCRIPTION:Has there ever been a time when Abraham Lincoln has gone silent? Our immortal conscience on civil rights and individual freedom is speaking to us yet again in the time of COVID-19 and public unrest. Yet Lincoln has managed to become even more relevant as we tackle infrastructure\, health care\, climate change\, and human rights. The forthcoming book by John F. Wasik\, Lincolnomics: How President Lincoln Constructed the Great American Economy\, puts the 16th president in a powerful new light: He was our foremost architect of economic development\, equal treatment\, and physical and intellectual improvements\, from transportation to medical research. \nIn this presentation\, Wasik will show a vastly under-studied side of Lincoln. As the only president to hold a patent\, he was an innovator. During his brief time as a surveyor\, he was an urban planner. Surprisingly\, his longest and most comprehensive speeches were devoted to the culture of invention\, “internal improvements\,” and research and development. \nLincoln as “Innovator in Chief” has enhanced relevance today\, as the new Congress and president lean into a bold program on national infrastructure\, climate change\, and health care reforms. Lincoln not only gave the nation a framework for a more just and equitable society\, he literally told us how we could go about building it. \nAgenda\n12 p.m.: Welcome Remarks: James Kelly\, director of the Gabelli Center for Global Security Analysis \n12:05 p.m.: Speaker Introduction: David Cowen\, president and CEO of the Museum of American\nFinance \n12:08 p.m.: Discussion: John F. Wasik \n12:45 p.m.: Audience Q&A \n1 p.m.: Closing Remarks: David Cowen \nAbout the Speaker\nWasik is the author of 19 books and has spoken all across North America. As a journalist\, he’s written for The New York Times\, Forbes\, The Wall Street Journal\, AARP\, Barron’s\, Fortune.com\, Money\, Reader’s Digest\, and Washington Monthly\, and he has been a columnist for Bloomberg News\, Reuters\, and other national publications. In 2018\, Wasik was named an Illinois Road Scholar for the Illinois Humanities Council. \nCopies of Lincolnomics 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:Jewish Ceremonial Art: Continuing the Conversation
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for a program in memory of Vivian B. Mann\, featuring Reed College’s Laura Arnold Leibman and Bar-Ilan University’s Maya Balakirsky Katz in conversation with Fordham University’s Magda Teter. \nJewish ceremonial objects have been studied and collected for nearly 150 years. In the past few decades\, however\, their importance in understanding social\, historic\, and aesthetic issues in a variety of cultural contexts has begun to increase. This program is dedicated to the memory of Vivian B. Mann\, a long-time Judaica curator at The Jewish Museum in New York and head of the graduate program in Jewish Art and Visual Culture at The Jewish Theological Seminary of America. Among her many accomplishments\, Mann started initiatives to ensure that the rigorous study of Judaica would become part of the discourse of wider disciplines\, such as art history\, history\, and Jewish studies. Building on her legacy\, Arnold Leibman and Balakirsky Katz will each speak about a ceremonial object from the vantage point of their different disciplines\, and then engage in a conversation with Teter about the state of the field today and the possibilities for the future. \nAbout the Speakers\nArnold Leibman is a professor of English and humanities at Reed College. 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. Her latest work\, The Art of the Jewish Family\, examines objects owned by Jewish women living in New York several centuries ago in order to recreate their biographies and restore their agency as creators of Jewish identity. Another of her books\, Messianism\, Secrecy and Mysticism: A New Interpretation of Early American Jewish Life\, won the Jewish National Book Award. \nBalakirsky Katz is an associate professor of Jewish art at Bar-Ilan University.

SUMMARY:Continuing Education: The Interdisciplinary Palliative Care Team - Facilitating Healthy Teams
DESCRIPTION:Interdisciplinary teams\, including palliative care teams\, are high-functioning models of effective inter/intradisciplinary work. Social workers\, nurse practitioners\, physicians\, and other integral interdisciplinary team members are united in their common goal of quality patient care\, but the lenses through which we view medical complexities may be radically different from one another. While this difference and overlap contribute to the richness of interdisciplinary care\, we must also nurture ourselves and these relationships to prevent role fatigue\, unintentional conflict\, and burnout. Healthy teams must be created and maintained. Social workers are trained specifically in nonverbal communication\, the impact and use of language\, relational dynamics\, family system theory\, and group therapy facilitation. These formational parts of our educational process uniquely position us to be team leaders in supporting healthy team function and identifying/navigating team distress. \nThe class will be taught by Dana Ribeiro Miller\, M.Div.\, LCSW\, ACHP-SW. \nCompletion of this class will result in the receipt of three continuing education hours. \nAbout the Instructor\nDana Ribeiro Miller holds a Master of Social Work degree from Columbia University School of Social Work\, where she was a recipient of the Dr. Maurice V. Russell Fellowship for Medical Social Work\, a Master in Divinity from Union Theological Seminary\, and a B.S. from Rutgers University. She completed her subspecialty palliative care training via the Hospice and Palliative Medicine Fellowship at Mount Sinai. Currently\, she is a palliative social worker\, a member of the ethics committee and faculty for the Palliative Medicine Fellowship\, and a member of the critical incident stress management team at NYU Winthrop University Hospital.

SUMMARY:Centennial Speaker Series: Hidden in Plain Sight: How to Save Active Investment Management\, Part I: The Situation
DESCRIPTION:Diversification is a core principle of investing. Yet money managers have not applied it to their own ranks. Only around 10 percent of portfolio managers—the people most directly responsible for investing your money—are female\, and the numbers are even worse at the ownership level. What are the causes of this underrepresentation\, and what are its consequences—including for firms’ and clients’ bottom lines? \nIn Undiversified: The Big Gender Short in Investment Management\, experienced practitioners Ellen Carr and Katrina Dudley examine the lack of women in investment management and propose solutions to improve the imbalance. They explore the barriers that subtly but effectively discourage women from entering and staying in the industry at each point in the pipeline. At the entry-level\, the lack of visible role models discourages students from considering the field\, and those who do embark on an investment management career face many obstacles to retention and promotion. Carr and Dudley highlight the importance of informal knowledge about how to navigate career tracks\, without which women are left at a disadvantage in an industry that lionizes confidence. They showcase a diverse constellation of successful female portfolio managers to demystify the profession. \nDrawing on wide-ranging research; interviews with prospective\, current\, and former industry practitioners; and the authors’ own experiences\, Undiversified makes a compelling case that increasing the number of women could help transform active investment management at a time when it is under threat from passive strategies and technological innovation. \nAgenda \n5:30 p.m.: Welcome Remarks and Speaker Introductions: Donna Rapaccioli\, dean of the Gabelli School of Business \n5:35 p.m.: Fireside Chat: Ellen Carr\, Katrina Dudley\, and Dan Hanson; moderated by Laura Rittenhouse \n6:15 p.m.: Audience Q&A \n6:30 p.m.: Closing Remarks: Dean Rapaccioli \nAbout the Speakers\nEllen Carr has more than two decades of experience as a high-yield bond portfolio manager\, most recently at Weaver C.
