SUMMARY:Catherine Jones: “Children and the Problem of Agency”
DESCRIPTION:The Cultural Studies Colloquium Series Presents:\nCatherine Jones \nHistory\, UCSC \nExcluded from favored liberal remedies for realizing new freedoms in postemancipation Virginia\, children nevertheless shaped broad Reconstruction contests over the meaning of freedom. This paper focuses on children in order to consider whether liberal assumptions embedded in the idea of agency have excessively narrowed historians’ analysis of postemancipation politics. \nSPONSORS: The Institute for Humanities Research (IHR) at the University of California\, Santa Cruz.

SUMMARY:"Emergent Communities in Experimental Writing" Conference
DESCRIPTION:This conference is organized around experimental writing and its many\, varying communities including performance art collaborations\, small press publishing and editorial projects\, virtual and digital work\, academic affiliations\, and intersecting aesthetic\, social and political identities and representations. The goal of this conference is to embrace the productive and generative connotations of these two terms as innovative acts and encounters that are always in the process of both venturing to do something previously untried\, and questioning and testing the very boundaries and mores\, however contingent\, established by those attempts. Of particular interest is how writing communities might be changing historically in the early twenty-first century\, and how writers theorize and make use (or not) of various conceptualizations and practices of community. What do such formations include and leave out? What are the conditions of possibility for a community to emerge? From where does one emerge? How are writing communities that share an often contested collective vision themselves experimental formations for attempting new modes of relation\, affiliation and creation?

SUMMARY:Matthew Tucker\, "Variable Agreement: The Morphosyntax of Syntactic Binding"
DESCRIPTION:Matthew Tucker\nThis talk discusses the interplay between syntax (the order of words and structure in sentences) and morphology (the structure of words) in natural language and the role it can play in linguistic theorizing. While traditional approaches often look at purely syntactic or purely morphological explanations\, data from three unrelated syntactic phenomena can be understood in a unified light if theories of language take the syntax- morphology interface as an object of study. The first of these\, called the Anaphor Agreement Effect\, involves the inability of reflexive elements (such as English himself\, or Italian se stesso) to control verbal agreement. The second and third are the inability of question words in some languages to control regular verbal agreement\, known variably as the Anti-Agreement Effect and wh-Agreement. Drawing on data from Berber\, Italian\, Abaza\, and other genetically unrelated languages\, I show that a unified understanding of these processes can be given if morphology is allowed to interpret the same syntactic structures in one of several different ways\, corresponding to the range of empirical phenomena seen in reflexive and question agreement. This in turn supports a methodological conclusion that deep descriptive\, partially abstract linguistic analysis is a prerequisite to understanding the possible space of cross-linguistic variation. \nMatthew Tucker is a fifth year graduate student in the Department of Linguistics. Mr. Tucker’s research focuses on the interaction between syntax (word order) and other parts of language. He is involved in the IHR research cluster Crosslinguistic Investigations in Syntax-Prosody\, where his work focuses on Arabic and the connections between syntax and word-level metrical structure.

SUMMARY:Patricia Lunn: "In the Defense of Linguistic Grammar"
DESCRIPTION:LANGUAGE PROGRAM COLLOQUIUM SERIES PRESENTS: \n“In the Defense of Linguistic Grammar” \n \nPatricia Lunn \nProfessor Emeritus of Spanish Michigan State University \nDiscussions about teaching grammar in the foreign language classroom are usually cast in terms of when (in order of acquisition) and how much (as against other activities). A little-discussed aspect of grammar teaching is what the content of grammar lessons should be. But not all grammatical description is equal\, and some is not even accurate. This presentation argues that the simplicity and descriptive adequacy of linguistic grammar should be recognized and exploited.

SUMMARY:Are You My Data? A Research Ethics Forum
DESCRIPTION:The Office of Research is sponsoring a series of Research Ethics Fora for faculty\, postdocs and graduate students.  The first forum in the Series “Are You My Data?” is on Tuesday May 8th in the Alumni Room of the University Center and is hosted by Prof. Jennifer Reardon of the Science & Justice Working Group.  This is an excellent opportunity to learn more about the challenges of managing research data. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAre You My Data?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWith a human genome sequenced and a map of variable sites in that genome created\, governments and many other public and private actors now seek to make genomic data relevant to health\, medicine and the society.  However\, to do so they must navigate the conjunction of two different approaches to data.  Within the biomedical domain there are important\, well-articulated infrastructures and commitments arising out of concerns about individual rights\, patient privacy and the doctor-patient relationship that limit access to biomedical data.  This stands in stark contrast to the culture of open access forged by those who worked on the Human Genome Project\, and that has continued to be a central commitment of ongoing Human Genome research.  Thus\, architects of the genomic revolution face competing\, complex technical and ethical challenges that arise from this meeting of these domains with substantially different ethos.  Additionally\, the rise of social media has led to a broad and contested discussion about the proper relationship between persons and data and who profits through access to it. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe goal of the proposed workshop is to map out the challenges of building and controlling genomic data architectures that are responsive to these conditions.  Rather than suggesting that either openness or privacy is the answer\, the workshop will ask which kinds of openness and privacy might be possible and adequate\, and in which contexts?   Further\, who has the authority to decide?  Who can/should authorize the flow of data and what forms of consent are required? What kinds of flow of data should be allowed (e.g.\, ones that lead back to persons\, etc.)?  Finally\, the workshop will consider questions around where and how data should be accessed.  Is “the cloud” a viable option?  What other options exist to manage deluging data\, and what ethical and material challenges do they present? \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhile the workshop will focus on the specific context of genomics\, of course the broader issues raised are not unique to genomics.  We hope the workshop is only one of  several we will host to consider the current gathering of fundamental and entwined issues of science\, engineering\, ethics and policy at the site of data. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSchedule\n1:00-2:30 Panel 1: The Collision of Privacy and Openness\n2:30-2:45 Break\n2:45-4:15 Panel 2: Creating and Sustaining Trust\n4:15-4:30 BREAK\n4:30-5:00 Agenda Setting for Future Discussions \nSpeakers:\nConfirmed (*)\n*David Winickoff\, Associate Professor of Bioethics and Society\, UC Berkeley\n*Malia Fullerton\, Associate Professor in the Department of Bioethics & Humanities at the University of Washington School of Medicine\n*Bob Zimmerman\, Program Director\, Cancer Genome Hub\n*John Wilbanks\, VP of Science\, Science Commons

SUMMARY:Trevor Joy Sangrey: “’Put One More “S” in the USA’: Pamphlet Literature and the Productive Fiction of the Black Nation Thesis”
DESCRIPTION:In 1928 the Communist Party developed an unconventional and intriguing proposal that black people in the Black Belt of the Southern United States were an unrecognized national group and should have rights to self-determination\, a move later called the “Black Nation Thesis.” Written in Moscow\, the Black Nation Thesis was forged in the US through direct action campaigns for the Scottsboro Nine\, local organizing around unemployment\, and an extensive production of pamphlets. \nThis paper focuses on pamphlets produced between 1932 and 1935\, especially The American Negro\, The Position of Negro Women\, and The Negroes in a Soviet America\, looking at the pamphlets as a literature of dissent that offers a strong critique of Jim Crow\, Chain Gangs\, Lynch Law\, and the economic and cultural oppression of black people. Alongside a critical analysis of the US\, the pamphlet develops a fictional a concept of a “Soviet America” in the Black Belt\, offering a new vision of radical freedom for black Southerners and enabling new conversations about race and class. \nTracing a different history of black radicalism in small press pamphlet literature\, this paper looks at a specific moment of dissident print culture\, whcih was spectacular\, imaginative\, and importantly pedagogical. Probing how radical visions grow and spread\, my research on 1930s CPUSA pamphlets reveals how pamphlets offer a place for internal critical thinking and stimulate movement participants to generate substantive critique of the US while also developing their own visions for a radical future. \nTrevor Joy Sangrey is a PhD candidate working in history\, education\, american studies\, race and ethnicity studies\, and gender studies\, with a focus on social movements. Trevor also teaches and has published in the interdisciplinary field of Transgender Studies.

SUMMARY:CANCELLED: Linguistics Colloquium: Dominique Sportiche
DESCRIPTION:Dominique Sportiche works on formal syntax. He has focused on the theory of constituent structure\, and properties of the syntax/semantics interface (especially in French and the Romance languages) as they bear on the architecture of syntactic or grammatical theory and on cognition in general. He has published work on phrase structure\, agreement\, clitics\, and reconstruction phenomena. His current theoretical interests and ongoing works include phrase structure and the functional sequence\, the internal structure of VPs\, reconstruction phenomena and the binding theory. From an empirical standpoint his work focalizes primarily on various aspects of the syntax systems of English\, and of French and the Romance languages (complementizers\, relative pronouns\, reflexive constructions\, binding theory). In recent years his work has extended to the relation between linguistic theory and (i) linguistic impairment (in Huntington’s disease patients)\, (ii) very early acquisition of syntax and (iii) grounding theoretical choices in more systematic methods of data collection and control (particularly regarding the binding theory\, and the French complementizer system). \nDominique Sportiche is Professor of Linguistics at the University of California\, Los Angeles. \nThis talk is presented by the Department of Linguistics. For more information please contact Nathan Arnett\, nvarnett@ucsc.edu.

SUMMARY:Spring 2012 Living Writers Reading Series: Tom Marshall & Rusty Morrison
DESCRIPTION:Having survived residence in 4 states and 1 province\, 20 towns & cities\, 23 jobs\, 3 families\, and 15 schools\, Marshall has slipped the noose of his handful of chapbooks and for now settled into a fresh way of making his poetry: free and green in blogbooks online. Impressed by the productive tensions between vocabularies in leading arts like dance\, he has let pictures into his poems. This began with a chuckle at Facebook and the form it offered with its way for posting a photo and saying something about it. His work still gets picked up by magazines\, but they too are drifting into the ether to find new formats. Teaching at many institutions (Cabrillo College for the last 22 years) has taught him about ineffable effect\, and politics have turned him away from object production. Marshall is a product of his times\, here and there on the web\, but not a commodity. \nRusty Morrison is an American poet and publisher. She received a BA in English from Mills College in Oakland\, California\, an MFA in Creative Writing (Poetry) from Saint Mary’s College in Moraga\, California\, and an MA in Education from California State University\, San Francisco. She has taught in the MFA program at the University of San Francisco\, and was Poet in Residence at Saint Mary’s College in 2009. She has also served as a visiting poet at a number of colleges and universities\, including the University of Redlands\, Redlands\, California; University of Arizona\, Tucson\, Arizona; Boise State University\, Boise\, Idaho; Marylhurst University\, Marylhurst\, Oregon\, and Millikin University\, Decatur\, Illinois. In 2001\, Morrison and her husband\, Ken Keegan\, founded Omnidawn Publishing in Richmond\, California and continue to work as co-publishers. \nThe Living Writers Reading Series is sponsored by the Siegfried B. & Elisabeth Mignon Puknat Fund\, Porter College George Hitchcock Poetry Fund\, Asian American/Pacific Islander Resource Center\, Literature Department/Creative Writing Program\, Laurie Sain Creative Writing Endowment\, East Asian Studies Program\, Bay Tree Bookstore\, Latino and Latin American Studies Center\, Office of Diversity\, Equity & Inclusion\, El Centro\, Cantu Queer Center\, Chicano Latino Research Center\, Stevenson College\, Oakes College\, and Merrill College. \nBooks are sold at the readings by The Bay Tree Bookstore.

DESCRIPTION:The Cultural Studies Colloquium Series Presents:\nAnjali Arondekar \nAssociate Professor\, Feminist Studies\, UCSC \nHistories of sexuality routinely mediate geopolitical difference(s) through the narrative forms of marginality\, disenfranchisement and loss.
