SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Community Engaged Scholarship Revealed
DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by Campus Compact & the Michigan Journal of Community Service Learning\, published by the Ginsberg Center. \n\nJoin a virtual discussion with the authors published in the latest issue of the MJCSL (Vol 29\, Issue 2). This event will highlight this issue’s special section on the origins of the core commitments and building blocks of civic identity.\n\nParticipants will engage with authors directly to gain more insight into not only the findings of each article\, but also the methods and process behind the findings.\n\nCivic Learning through a Lens of Racial Equity (Christina Santana\, William Cortezia\, Gene Corbin\, John Reiff)\n\nCultivating a Civic Identity Using a Feminist Cohort Model: An Analysis of Tulane’s Newcomb Scholars Program (Aidan Smith\, Ryan McBride\, Anna Mahoney\, and Agnieszka Nance)\n\nDefending Democracy: What We Can Learn about Civic Identity from Peer Educators Involved in Nonpartisan Political Engagement (Alexander Kappus)\n\nThe Lens of Civic Identity: A Developmental Model for Undergraduate Education (Langdon J. Martin\, Annie Jonas and Brooke Millsaps)\n\nHow College Students Can Depolarize: Evidence for Political Moderation Within Homogeneous Groups (Yasmeena Khan and Alice Siu)\n\nOpen to all! Come learn from the authors and bring your questions.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Thursday Seminar Series - Pattern and Process in Convergent Evolution: What Can Snakes Tell us about Phenotypic Innovation?
DESCRIPTION:This event is part of our ongoing Thursday Seminar Series.\n\nPreview: The concept of “innovation” - the origin of traits that facilitate transitions to new adaptive zones - underlies most of our understanding of major evolutionary shifts in ecological function. Although snakes have highly simplified body plans\, their extraordinary history of repeated phenotypic convergence offers an opportunity for comparative tests of drivers underlying innovation. Using the convergent evolution of 1) defensive mimicry and 2) sensory systems across the global radiation of extant snakes\, I will talk about tests of mechanisms that drive transitions to strikingly new and distinct phenotypic landscapes. By combining natural history collections\, phylogenetic comparative approaches\, CT scanning\, and behavioral experiments\, our results can challenge traditional ideas about the ecological origins and evolutionary stability of phenotypic innovation.
