TONIGHT – An Evening of Poetry with Ross Gay

An Evening of Poetry with Ross Gay

  • October 11, 2018 @ 6:00 pm
  • Warch Campus Center, Lawrence University
  • Hurvis Room
  • Free and open to the public

This event is sponsored by the Cargill Sustainability Grant, the Mia Paul Poetry Fund, and the Fox Cities Book Festival.

Description of event

This talk will imagine ways that delight, joy, and love are integral to the ways we care for the land, but also to the ways we care for ourselves and each other as the land.

Ross’s reading will be followed by a book signing.

Ross Gay Biography

Ross Gay is the author of three books: Against Which; Bringing the Shovel Down; and Catalog of Unabashed Gratitude, winner of the 2015 National Book Critics Circle Award and the 2016 Kingsley Tufts Poetry Award. Ross is a founding board member of the Bloomington Community Orchard, a non-profit, free-fruit-for-all food justice and joy project. Ross teaches at Indiana University. His new book, The Book of Delights — will be released in Spring 2019.

 

TONIGHT – Pulitzer Prize-Winning Author to Explore Causes of Mass Incarceration at Lawrence Talk

James Forman Jr., author of the 2018 Pulitzer Prize for Nonfiction for Locking Up Our Own: Crime and Punishment in Black America, will deliver a talk that explores the rise of mass incarceration and its disproportionate impact on people of color. The talk will be followed by a signing of his book.

Lecture and Signing with Pulitzer-Winner James Forman, Jr.

Thursday, October 11 at 7:30 p.m.

Wriston Auditorium

The event is free and open to the public and no registration is required.

Forman, a professor at Yale Law School, seeks to understand why many African-American leaders for decades supported a get-tough “war on crime” that so profoundly impacts communities of color. Forman’s work is “an examination of the historical roots of contemporary criminal justice in the U.S., based on vast experience and deep knowledge of the legal system, and its often-devastating consequences for citizens and communities of color.”

Spiritual and Religious Life – Time with the Dean + Student Employees

Meet the Dean over food:

Open hours with Linda Morgan-Clement have taken on a non-traditional format this year.  You can connect with Linda by making an appointment, or by sitting down with her at lunch in Andrew Commons. Find her there on Tuesdays of even weeks at 12:30.
October 16
October 30th
November 13

Meet the Dean at Tai Chi:

Mondays at 4:15 in the Esch Hurvis room.
Come as you are. Breathe and move toward a peaceful inner energy.
All are welcome.

Our Student Employees:

Interfaith Activators Emily Midyette and Michaela McElroy just might be reaching out on behalf of the Office of Spiritual and Religious Life.

Imagine a religious or spiritual event has happened or is coming up.
If your organization’s mission might tie in with the mission of our office, don’t be surprised to find that the Interfaith Activator is your primary contact.  They help organize, help promote knowledge, answer questions, act as advocates, and assist with outreach that can be either campus wide or specifically and spiritually inclusive.  They are the student arms of our office, and part of their job is to help foster connections beyond Sabin House.  Dean Linda Morgan-Clement and Associate Dean Terra Winston are always a resource, but sometimes the student to student connection makes for just as meaningful of an experience.

Community Conversation on Emotional Wellbeing

You may be aware that the Task Force on Emotional Wellbeing began its work last term to examine those factors which give rise to stress and anxiety in our community.  The Task Force also aims to identify strategies to combat these factors and improve emotional wellness.  Provost Katie Kodat and I are co-chairs of the task force.

You are invited to join Provost Kodat and me in a community conversation this coming Friday from 4pm – 5pm in the Warch cinema.  We will give updates on the Task Force’s work to date and engage the community in a broad conversation on the state of emotional wellbeing on campus. This is the first in a series of conversations.  Please join us to discuss this very important campus issue.

Regards,
Chris Card
Vice President for Student Life
