SUMMARY:Exhibition:More than Gray: Reimagining Early America in Full Color
DESCRIPTION:The American past was lived in full color\, but this vibrant history can be easily missed in surviving evidence. You can’t deny that there’s something about a black-and-white photograph that feels… stuffy. With portraits showing people with their shirts buttoned right to the neck and everything in shades of gray and brown\, our imaginations can incline to thinking of the past as a bit staid\, if not downright dull. But look a little closer\, and you’ll see signs that the fashion choices available to those who came before us were more colorful than you might first think. From the fabrics they wore\, to the games they played\, or the books they read\, their world was alive with bright hues. This exhibit invites you to reimagine history with a fuller color palette and picture the vibrancy and joy that just might be hidden behind the unsmiling photographs.\n\nExhibition opening weekdays from 12-4.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Psychology Department Colloquium | Chris Peterson Memorial Lecture | Dr. Steven F. Maier
DESCRIPTION:It has been known since 1967 that exposure to stressors over which the organism has no behavioral control produce a constellation of behavioral and neurochemical sequelae that do not occur if an element of behavioral control over the stressor is possible. “Learned Helplessness” points of view developed by me and Seligman explained this difference by arguing that when confronted with an uncontrollable stressor the organism learns that it is uncontrollable\, and that this learning sets off a cascade of events that produce the behavioral and neurochemical outcomes. Here\, controllable aversive events fail to produce the outcomes because they lack the critical element of uncontrollability\, not because they lead to an active process. Recent neurocircuitry work will be described which indicates that this original view had it exactly backwards. Instead\, a) specific circuits (prelimbic cortex to dorsomedial striatum and mediodorsal thalamus to prelimbic cortex) detect/process the presence of control\, and b) when control is detected separate projections from the prelimbic cortex actively inhibit stress-responsive limbic and brainstem structures that are activated by both uncontrollable and controllable aversive events and that are the proximate mediators of the behavioral changes.  In addition\, there are strong sex differences in these processes which will be described. Finally\, implications of this neurocircuitry work\, especially for controllable stressor-induced changes in behavior outside the realm of aversively motivated behavior\, such as generalized persistence/perseverance\, will be discussed.\n\nAbout the speaker: Steven Maier has been University of Colorado Distinguished Professor and the Director of the Center for Neuroscience\, and is currently Research Professor. He has received numerous awards including the Grawemeyer Award\, the Norman Cousins and Neal Miller Distinguished Lectureships\, The D. O. Hebb Distinguished Research Award and the Award for Distinguished Scientific Contributions from the APA\, and is a Fellow of the APA\, APS\, and AAAS.  He has held both career and MERIT awards from the NIH\, has been continuously funded by the NIH for 35 years\, has served on numerous NIH study sections\, and has edited and been on the editorial boards of numerous journals.  He has authored or co-authored over 500 scientific papers in refereed journals\, and numerous book chapters. His h-index is 159\, his i10 index is 484\, and his citations are in excess of 90\,000. He has been rated as among the 200 most influential psychologists since World War II by Diener\, et al. (2014).\n\nDr. Maier’s research falls into two broad areas. One centers on an exploration of the variables that modulate the impact of stressors on brain chemistry\, and the neurochemical mechanisms by which stressors alter behavior and mood. Recent work focuses on the role of the medial prefrontal cortex in producing resilience. The other centers on interactions between the brain and the immune system\, with study of both how the brain regulates immune processes and how products of immune cells signal the brain. Current emphasis is on understanding mechanisms of immune-to-brain signaling at pathway\, cellular and molecular levels\, and the implications of these pathways for understanding stress\, mood disturbances\, and cognitive impairment\, and long-Covid.

SUMMARY:Performance:Jenna Moon & Mitty Ma\, carillon
DESCRIPTION:SMTD doctoral alumna Jenna Moon & graduate student Mitty Ma perform on the Ann & Robert H. Lurie Carillon\, an instrument of 60 bells with the lowest bell (bourdon) weighing 6 tons.\n\nThirty-minute recitals are performed on the Lurie Carillon every weekday that classes are in session. During these recitals\, visitors may take the elevator to level 2 to view the largest bells\, or to level 3 to see the carillonist performing. (Visitors subject to acrophobia are recommended to visit level 2 only.) An optional spiral stairway between levels 2 and 3 allows for up-close views of some of the largest bells.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:How Quantification Shapes What We See in Organizations and Social Movements: Three Examples of Visibility and Invisibility
DESCRIPTION:In this talk I examine how quantification constructs relations of visibility: How what we attend to and ignore is mediated by numbers. The forms of visibility\, invisibility (and everything in between) that numbers produce can reinforce or redress inequalities\, shape political processes\, and help to forge or threaten group identities.  Drawing on examples from different institutional spheres—educational rankings\, LGBTQ politics in the U.S.\, and political polling in recent U.S. presidential races\,  I discuss how the forms of legibility and obscurity\, and the type of comparisons that numbers generate\, can deeply influence where organizations invest\, how they understand each other\, and how groups decide\, predict and protest. I call for greater\, more systematic scholarly attention to the dimensions and relations of quantitative visibility as an important theoretical concept\, and to the conditions the shape its effects\, for those who study quantification and organizations.
