Upcoming Events
GUEST SPEAKER: Executive editor of the Salt Lake Tribune
Lecture/Readings
Lauren Gustus, executive editor of The Salt Lake Tribune, will speak to Del Jones’ media ethics class Wednesday at 5:15 pm about the move to nonprofit news, open meeting rules, and the Utah House of Representatives attempt to fence off the press to questions after hearings. The Tribune is the only major metro to transition to a nonprofit and wants to be a successful model for sustainable local news. Gustus previously worked for McClatchy as West Region Editor, overseeing 10 news organizations in Idaho, Washington and California, including the company’s flagship, The Sacramento Bee.
Ludi Romani: Classics Alumni Roundtable
Social/Networking
Friday, April 8 at 2 pm in Dean’s Conference Room (MAIN 338), the USU Classics Program will host an alumni roundtable where you can meet former USU Classics students and learn about how they have used their training in ancient studies during their post-undergraduate careers. They have gone on to work in the fields of language instruction, history, physics, computer programming and, of course, classics, among many other disciplines. Please join us for an hour of lively discussion about how you can use your classics training to pursue your professional goals and dreams. Light refreshments will be served.
USU Bringing War Home Oral History & Roadshow
Cultural
Many of us are familiar with the material remains of war, whether we have direct experience with the battlefield or not. Some of these objects are personal, a way for veterans to preserve their experiences. Often, objects collected by relatives who have participated in the wars of the 20th and 21stcenturies linger on as memorials that help families tell the stories of how their beloved fathers, grandfathers, mothers and grandmothers, cousins, and siblings contributed to the larger history of war. The “Bringing War Home” project aims to enable our diverse community, military and civilian alike, to share their wartime objects and the stories that surround them. Working with community partners, we are preparing to host three full-day roadshows, where we invite the community to share family stories and to bring wartime objects for us to photograph and preserve in a digital archive (an online website where others can view and learn about these objects and their stories). One of our main goals is to create opportunities to engage veterans, military families, students, and communities in ongoing conversations on how objects can help us understand modern war.
Working at the Intersections: Critical Race Scholarship and Pedagogy Today
Panel Discussion/Presentation
Join USU's Center for Intersectional Gender Studies & Research and the USU Libraries for a panel discussion moderated by Dr. Christy Glass. This is the final event in the "Intersections on Inclusion" series for the 2021-2022 academic year. Recent conversations in Utah and nationwide highlight the debate and division surrounding Critical Race Theory (CRT) in education. The purpose of this event is to celebrate the ways CRT informs and deepens our teaching, research, and community engagement in higher education. Panelists will explore how they use CRT in the classroom and in their research, and discuss how doing so advances USU’s mission of “cultivating diversity of thought and culture" and “serving the public through learning, discovery, and engagement.” Join us for an engaging—and celebratory—discussion that will reenergize our shared purpose in this work and build connections across our university. This event will take place in a Zoom webinar format and will be live captioned. If you have additional accessibility needs or questions about the event, please contact Rachel.Wishkoski@usu.edu.
