Speaker Series events, per semester are connected under one theme. Such a thematic thread is an exciting and challenging lens through which students in the Columbia Undergraduate Scholars Program (CUSP) can approach the pressing issues of the day, linking discrete areas of speculation. Under separate thematic covers, CUSP has explored questions of education, expression, professional and social responsibility, international and public health, civil and human rights, science and technology, business ethics, sustainable development, politics and finance, art and representation, and the role of the writer as witness. In addition to these larger presentations, CUSP also develops two to three Scholar Forum events each semester. These events are smaller seminar-style events where distinguished faculty and guests can speak to the yearly theme and provide ample opportunity for questions and interaction with the Scholar audience. Scholars are also invited to attend off-campus events, or Cultural Outings, which tie into the yearly themes. These events are organized primarily by the student-led council, the CUSP Alliance, and include opportunities for dinner and discussion among Scholars. This Program Archive is a collection of CUSP’s events from 2000-2014 and documents the breadth and depth of programming available to Scholars. 4 REVOLUTION: 2014-2015 Each year, the CUSP Speaker Series is united by a common thread that is the foundation of our year-long inquiry. This year, we will explore the theme of "Revolution." "Revolution" is a term used freely these days. From the profound changes in technology and social media to the political upheavals of the Arab spring, rupture and change, we are told, is a part of the new world order. Scholars are invited to consider the deeper significance of these claims. How can revolutions of the past teach us about the present and even the future? Does “revolution” always imply “progress”? What is the nature of the interplay between revolutions and counterrevolutions? What do the structures of change one finds in political and social spheres have in common with revolutions as they occur in technological innovation, in thought, even in art? And how does the understanding of revolution as change relate to the scientific concept (e.g. in astronomy, engineering) of revolution as a cyclical reoccurrence? Drawing on the perspectives of distinguished artists, scientists and intellectuals, this exploration of revolutionary concepts exemplifies the CUSP spirit of interdisciplinary

The path to the next normal Leading with resolve through the coronavirus pandemic May 2020 Introduction On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization formally declared COVID-19 a pandemic, underscoring the precipitous global uncertainty that had plunged lives and livelihoods into a still-unfolding crisis. Just two months later, daily reports of outbreaks—and of waxing and waning infection and mortality rates— continue to heighten anxiety, stir grief, and cast into question the contours of our collective social and economic future. Never in modern history have countries had to ask citizens around the world to stay home, curb travel, and maintain physical distance to preserve the health of families, colleagues, neighbors, and friends. And never have we seen job loss spike so fast, nor the threat of economic distress loom so large. In this unprecedented reality, we are also witnessing the beginnings of a dramatic restructuring of the social and economic order—the emergence of a new era that we view as the “next normal.” Dialogue and debate have only just begun on the shape this next normal will take.

    8/17/2019 Asia floods: How can the damage be reduced? - BBC News Home News Sport Reel Worklife Travel Future M AD Newsbeat Asia floods: How can the damage be reduced? 15 August 2019 GETTY IMAGES There's been a lot of destruction caused by floods across Asia. Countries such as India, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Nepal and Vietnam have seen hundreds of homes destroyed and lives lost. Every year, widespread flooding and landslides happen a lot between the months of July and September - also known as the monsoon season. So how can this widespread damage be reduced? https://www.bbc.com/news/newsbeat-49346312 1/16 8/17/2019 Asia floods: How can the damage be reduced? - BBC News Dr Tobias Börger is an environmental economist at the University of Stirling researching flood infrastructure in Vietnam and he explains what could potentially help. Grey infrastructure Dr Börger tells Radio 1 Newsbeat governments use structures such as dams and dykes to control the amount of water that flows around. "There's also stuff that's built higher up and sewage systems so rain and water can drain more quickly." They are known as grey infrastructure "because they are grey". "These are quite effective as they reduce the flood risk impact," he adds. But these "engineered solutions" are quite "expensive to maintain" which means unless there is constant investment they won't be as effective as they should be in stopping floods. GETTY IMAGES Blue and Green solutions However, there are also more natural, non-concrete options, according to Dr Börger. These are called blue and green infrastructure which focus on building vegetative river banks and wetlands - a system of plants and water - and more green areas "to reduce flood risk and potential flood impact" - because it means rainwater can enter the ground more easily.

  • Beyond the Role of Drum and Song in Schools: a Storied Approach By
    Beyond the Role of Drum and Song in Schools: A Storied Approach by Anna-Leah King A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Educational Policy Studies University of Alberta ©Anna-Leah King, 2016 Abstract My research reflects on the use of drum and song in schools and reveals its significance from an Anishnaabe kwe perspective. A storied approach is used relative to Anishnaabe ways of being and knowing as ‘teachers’ in two forms: debaajimowin (narratives) and antasokannan (tradition or sacred). Stories are a functioning part of both the framework and methodology to present a new and evolving story that is relevant to formal schooling. In addition to inquiring into Anishnaabe stories, Elders teachings, and archival records, autobiographical experiences shaped this inquiry. The analysis was guided by Anishnaabe perspectives, as well as several key questions asked by Justice Sinclair (2014), questions that link identity and culture. Key recommendations in relation to integrating song and drum in relation to formal schooling point to the necessity to be grounded in community and cultural ways of being and knowing. ii Preface This dissertation is an original work of Anna-Leah King. Given the autobiographical and archival nature of the research no ethics permit was necessary. Following aboriginal protocols the close work alongside elders guided the inquiry and writing of this dissertation. iii Dedication To my ancestors before me and the children yet to come. iv Acknowledgment I would like to acknowledge Dr. Vera Caine and Dr. Florence Glanfield for their commitment of work and weekly meetings towards this.
