SUMMARY:Giving Day
DESCRIPTION:Be a Part of Giving Day at UC Santa Cruz \nGiving Day is an energized 24-hour online fundraising drive to support UC Santa Cruz students\, faculty\, and campus programs. It’s a day for people everywhere to come together in a circle of giving for UC Santa Cruz. Generous donors provide incentives to make the day a success. They create matching funds that increase the impact of gifts to individual projects and they support challenge funds that inspire friendly competition among project teams. Givingday.ucsc.edu \nHumanities participants are: The Center for Public Philosophy\, The Classics Program\, Critical Race and Ethnic Studies (CRES)\, The Dickens Project\, and The Gail Project. \nOur Classics Program will be competing for a prize of $500-$1000 for the 7-8 am “Challenge Hour”. The goal is to have the most donors during that time window\, so if you plan to give to the Carl Deppe Memorial Lecture in Classics\, that will be a great time to do so! \nWe would appreciate your participation in whatever way suits you: whether it is by spreading the word through social media or by donating. The minimum donation this year is $5\, and every bit helps. \nIf you have questions\, or are interested in providing a matching gift\, please contact Jenna Hurley at jehurley@ucsc.edu.

SUMMARY:PhD+: Ken Wissoker (Duke UP): An Insider's Guide to Academic Publishing
DESCRIPTION:Event Photos:\nIf you have trouble viewing above images\, you may view this album directly on Flickr.  \nHow different is the structure of your dissertation from the form of your first book? Who are the audiences for your research? How soon after completing the dissertation should you expect to begin drafting and pitching your book proposal? What is the history behind these publishing norms and how did they become what they are today? \nThese are some of the mysteries around academic publishing that Ken Wissoker\, the editorial director for Duke University Press and the director of The Graduate Center at CUNY’s Intellectual Publics program\, will demystify for us. Ken is known for giving people an optimistic way of thinking about their own work\, to help them see what is really at stake in their research and how to structure a book around it. This event promises to generate a lively discussion around all aspects of academic publishing from edited volumes to developing your first book manuscript. Bring your questions\, concerns\, and anxieties \n  \nAbout the PhD+ Workshop Series\nPlease join us for the third year of PhD+ Workshops\, hosted by the Institute for Humanities Research. We meet monthly\, over lunch\, to discuss possible career paths for PhDs\, internship possibilities\, grants/fellowships\, work/life balance\, elements of style\, online identity issues\, and much\, much more. \nLunch will be served. \nPlease RSVP below: \nLoading…

SUMMARY:Friday Forum: Elizabeth Goldman
DESCRIPTION:Once Helpful\, Always Helpful? Infants’ Expectations About Helping and Hindering Behavior Across Scenarios \nThe present work examined 16 to 18 month-olds’abilities to generalize a person’s tendency to help or hinder across multiple scenarios. Infants saw three familiarization events where an agent consistently helped or hindered another agent. In test\, infants saw two test trials (consistent or inconsistent with the behavior in familiarization) in a new scenario. Experiment 1 showed that infants tracked a person’s helping behavior across scenarios and expected the person to be helpful again in the future. However\, generalizing a person’s tendency to hinder proved more challenging. Experiment 2 replicated the positive results in Experiment 1 and showed that with the stronger cues of hindering intent\, tracking hindering behavior across events appeared easier for infants. \nElizabeth Goldman is Psychology PhD student who works in the Infant Development Lab. Her research\nprimarily focuses on children’s understanding of prosocial (helping) behavior. This project looks at whether\nchildren expect a person’s helping or hindering behavior to continue and carryover to other situations. \nFriday Forum is a weekly interdisciplinary colloquium series for sharing graduate research across the humanities. Join us for light refreshments and weekly presentations by your fellow graduate students. Friday Forum is supported by the Graduate Student Association\, the Humanities Institute\, and the following departments: HAVC\, Literature\, and History of Consciousness.

SUMMARY:Linguistics Colloquium: Kristen Syrett\, Rutgers University
DESCRIPTION:“Experimental evidence for context sensitivity in the nominal domain: What children and adults reveal” \nAbstract: Part of what it means to become a proficient speaker of a language is to recognize that the context in which we communicate with each other\, including what a speaker’s intentions or goals are\, affects the way we arrive at certain interpretations. This seems entirely reasonable for context-dependent expressions like pronouns (they) or relative gradable adjectives (big\, expensive)\, but what about seemingly stable expressions\, such as count nouns (fork\, ball)? Are words like these—words that appear early in child-directed and child-produced speech—also sensitive to context? In collaborative research with Athulya Aravind (MIT)\, we have asked precisely this question. We start with a curious yet robust puzzle observed in the developmental psychology literature: young children\, when presented with a set of partial and whole objects (like forks) and asked to count or quantify them\, appear to treat the partial objects as if they were wholes (Shipley & Shepperson 1990\, among others). While children’s non-adultlike behavior may be taken to signal a conceptual shift in development\, we adopt a different perspective\, entertaining the possibility that children are doing something that adults might indeed be willing to do in certain instances\, and that their response patterns reveal something interesting about the context sensitivity of nouns\, which we argue is similar to that seen with gradable adjectives. Across three tasks\, we show that adults and children are more alike than the previous research has revealed: both age groups not only include partial objects but also impose limits on their inclusion in a category\, depending on the speaker’s intentions or goals and the perceptual representation of the object\, and a comparison with gradable adjectives reveals (perhaps surprisingly) that adults recruit a minimum standard of comparison for nominals. Thus\, we argue there is conceptual and linguistic continuity in this aspect of development\, and that experimental data from both children and adults sheds light on the semantics of nominal expressions.
