SUMMARY:CNY Humanities Corridor: Workshop on Multilingual Writers\, Support\, and Labor – Practice and Vision
DESCRIPTION:This is the second CNY Humanities Corridor event by the Composition\, Labor & Embodiment Working Group on supporting multilingual student writers in the U.S. university. \nOpen to administrators\, program directors\, and instructors (including future faculty) interested in creating more linguistically and culturally inclusive programs and practices for multilingual writers\, this interactive workshop will use case studies to focus on practical strategies for addressing these critical questions at our respective institutions: \n\nWho are our multilingual students? What does linguistic diversity “look like” on our campus? How would we find out?\nWhere do students currently find writing and other academic support?\nWhat does this mean for student labor\, faculty labor\, and administrative labor?\n\nParticipants will learn approaches for investigating linguistic diversity on their own campuses\, mapping available campus support for multilingual writers\, and identifying avenues for developing a campus-wide\, shared sense of responsibility for linguistic inclusion and educating students from all backgrounds. \nWorkshop Facilitators:  \nGail Shuck is Professor of English at Boise State University\, where she has directed English Language Support Programs since 2001. Her research focuses on language ideologies\, language identities\, and linguistically inclusive writing program administration. She is currently editing a collection with Kay Losey on plurilingualism in U.S. writing classrooms. \nAngela Dadak is the second language writing specialist for the Writing Studies Program at American University in Washington\, DC. She teaches first year writing courses to linguistically diverse undergraduates\, supports writing faculty in their work with multilingual writers\, and participates in university-wide initiatives related to multilingual students. \nThis event is supported by Kate Navickas and Michelle Cox of the Knight Institute for Writing in the Disciplines.

SUMMARY:CNY Humanities Corridor:  Supporting Multilingual Student Writers in the U.S. University – Whose Labor and What Kind?
DESCRIPTION:This event is a CNY Humanities Corridor panel with two second language writing scholars presenting on how faculty can support multilingual student writers.  \nLanguage Ideology\, Multilingual Identities\, and the Division of Labor in Educational Practice \nGail Shuck is Professor of English at Boise State University\, where she has directed English Language Support Programs since 2001. Her research focuses on language ideologies\, language identities\, and linguistically inclusive writing program administration. She is currently editing a collection with Kay Losey on plurilingualism in U.S. writing classrooms. \nTalk Abstract: Drawing on research on language identities and on her experience as English Language Support director for a university in a refugee resettlement city\, Dr. Shuck will discuss the complexities of “multilingual student” identity and how those complexities are erased in pedagogical and institutional practices. Who do we mean when we talk about multilingual students\, ESL students\, English learners\, bilingual students? What assumptions do instructors and institutions make about multilingual students’ educational and linguistic backgrounds\, residency or visa status\, rhetorical abilities\, and first-language literacy? How do such assumptions change the distribution of labor–of students\, faculty\, staff\, different offices/units–throughout an institution? What are some points of tension around redistributing such labor? \nLandscapes of Labor and Visions of New Lands: Supporting Multilingual Writers \nAngela Dadak is the second language writing specialist for the Writing Studies Program at American University in Washington\, DC. She teaches first year writing courses to linguistically diverse undergraduates\, supports writing faculty in their work with multilingual writers\, and participates in university-wide initiatives related to multilingual students. \nTalk Abstract: From language support offices\, to writing centers\, to individual professor’s offices\, the landscape of support for multilingual writers is rarely simple\, reflecting or even erasing their complex multilingual identities. Dr. Dadak will begin by illustrating the difficulty for students and mentors in navigating this territory and then consider the underlying ideological\, financial\, structural forces shaping it. How do current models of support respond (or not respond) to those various forces? How do these models distribute labor across multilingual writers\, faculty\, staff\, and other actors on and off campus? How might we envision alternative structures and paradigms for supporting writers of all backgrounds on our campuses? \nThis event is supported by Kate Navickas and Michelle Cox of the Knight Institute for Writing in the Disciplines\, and is open to interested instructors\, including future faculty.

SUMMARY:“Equity in Science” Book Talk with Author & Prof. Julie Posselt
DESCRIPTION:The Graduate School Offices of Inclusion & Student Engagement and Future Faculty and Academic Careers invite you to join us on Wednesday\, February 17 for a discussion with Julie R. Posselt\, Associate Professor of Higher Education at the University of Southern California\, on her recent book\, Equity in Science: Representation\, Culture and the Dynamics of Change in Graduate Education. \nAbout “Equity in Science: Representation\, Culture\, and the Dynamics of Change in Graduate Education”\n“STEM disciplines are believed to be founded on the idea of meritocracy; recognition earned by the value of the data\, which is objective. Such disciplinary cultures resist concerns about implicit or structural biases\, and yet\, year after year\, scientists observe persistent gender and racial inequalities in their labs\, departments\, and programs. In Equity in Science\, Julie Posselt makes the case that understanding how field-specific cultures develop is a crucial step for bringing about real change. She does this by examining existing equity\, diversity\, and inclusion efforts across astronomy\, physics\, chemistry\, geology\, and psychology. These ethnographic case studies reveal the subtle ways that exclusion and power operate in scientific organizations and\, sometimes\, within change efforts themselves. Posselt argues that accelerating the movement for inclusion in science requires more effective collaboration across boundaries that typically separate people and scholars—across the social and natural sciences\, across the faculty-student-administrator roles\, and across race\, gender\, and other social identities. Ultimately this book is a call for academia to place equal value on expertise\, and on those who do the work of cultural translation. Posselt closes with targeted recommendations for individuals\, departments\, and disciplinary societies for creating systemic\, sustainable change.” \nUnlimited copies of the e-book of “Equity in Science” is now available through the Cornell Library system at http://proxy.library.cornell.edu/login?url=http://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/cornell/detail.action?docID=6221309.  A special thank you goes out to Graduate Field Assistant and CALS Diversity & Inclusion Committee member\, Casey Moore who took the initiative to explore opportunities to make this e-book accessible for free for our broader community! \nAbout the Author\nJulie Posselt is an associate professor of higher education in the University of Southern California Rossier School of Education and author of Equity in Science: Representation\, Culture and the Dynamics of Change in Graduate Education and Inside Graduate Admissions: Merit\, Diversity\, and Faculty Gatekeeping. Rooted in sociological and organizational theory\, Posselt’s research program examines institutionalized inequalities in higher education and organizational efforts aimed at reducing inequities and encouraging diversity. She focuses on selective sectors of higher education— graduate education\, STEM fields\, and elite undergraduate institutions—where longstanding practices and cultural norms are being negotiated to better identify talent and educate students in a changing society. Posselt’s current scholarship\, funded by five grants from the National Science Foundation and one from the Mellon Foundation\, examines movements for equity and inclusion in graduate education and the humanistic and physical science disciplines. Explore the resources available from Posselt’s projects on the Equity in Graduate Education website: bit.ly/GradEdEquity. \nSponsorship\nThis event is supported by the National Science Foundation under Grant No.1647094 (AGEP CIRTL).

Each workshop will highlight emotional intelligence competencies needed for success in research and healthcare careers and will provide strategies for developing these competencies as part of your educational journey. While you may participate in any of the webinars\, it is best to participate in the entire series as the material relates and concepts will be developed throughout the series.

SUMMARY:NIH: Workplace Dynamics – Diversity in a Multicultural Society
DESCRIPTION:Speaker(s): Sharon Milgram\, PhD\, Director\, OITE\nThis event is recommended for: Postbacs; Graduate Students; Postdocs/Fellows. \nDiversity…. difference…. post-racial….. multicultural –  all buzzwords we regularly hear.  But how often do we as future scientists\, healthcare providers\, science educators\, and policy experts stop to consider our own reactions to diversity and difference?  Furthermore\, why does this matter to our research and how do we build inclusive and welcoming work environments? This workshop will examine the meaning of diversity in the lives of individuals\, groups\, and communities\, as well as the larger society and scientific community.
