SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Deaf Professionals and Communication Access in the Workplace
DESCRIPTION:This presentation explores the vital role of Deaf professionals and the importance of communication access in the workplace. It will examine the growing presence of Deaf individuals in professional fields\, particularly as accessibility\, legal protections\, and educational opportunities have expanded over time. Participants will also consider challenges Deaf professionals may encounter\, including communication barriers\, workplace accessibility gaps\, and common misconceptions about Deafness. \n\nIn addition\, the presentation will highlight how American Sign Language (ASL) has evolved as Deaf professionals have entered new and specialized fields. As careers in medicine\, science\, business\, technology\, and other areas have become more accessible\, ASL has continued to grow—developing new vocabulary and concepts that reflect the contributions and expertise of Deaf professionals. Overall\, this presentation emphasizes the importance of inclusive communication\, equitable workplace practices\, and the continued advancement of Deaf professionals across diverse career fields.\n\nAmerican Sign Language (ASL) interpreting services and Communication Access Realtime Translation (CART) captioning services will be provided. If you need additional accommodations to participate in this webinar\, please email the ADA Coordinator at ADAcoordinator@umich.edu.

SUMMARY:Presentation:GCC Denmark: Inequality & Social Change Info Session
DESCRIPTION:Learn more about GCC Denmark: Inequality & Social Change at this info session with Senior Study Abroad Advisor Callie Rouse and Program Instructor Rebecca Christensen! \n\nProgram Description: Denmark is consistently ranked among the happiest countries in the world and is known for its universal healthcare system\, tuition-free education from kindergarten through graduate school\, and open prison system. In this course\, we will use a sociological lens to compare and contrast the education\, public health\, and criminal legal systems in the United States and Denmark.\n\nDuring our three weeks abroad\, we will examine the causes and consequences of racism\, socioeconomic disparities\, and other social inequalities within the Copenhagen community. By immersing yourself in Danish culture\, you will learn about the country's unique norms\, values\, and policies\, and how they differ from American ways of living. Through visits to community organizations\, conversations with guest speakers\, and cultural excursions\, you will gain firsthand insight into Danish society.\n\nBy engaging in ongoing reflection and active learning\, you will develop a greater awareness of your social identities within a global context\, deepen your understanding of your own worldview\, and consider your role as an agent of social change. Together\, we will explore both the possibilities and challenges of applying Danish models of social welfare to create a more just and equitable society in the United States.\n\nStudents must enroll in SOC 225 Project Community: Sociology in Action in Winter 2027 as well to be eligible for this program.
