SUMMARY:Google Earth Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Google Earth is an online virtual globe that allows researchers and students to display layered information on modern satellite imagery. In this introductory hands-on tutorial\, participants will be taught the basics of the program\, including how to navigate and add custom content. We will focus specifically on the use of Google Earth for the Humanities\, covering how to import and scale historic maps on top of the satellite imagery\, how to add descriptive text and digital imagery to locations on the surface of the earth\, and how to use the power of the program to organize one’s data temporally or thematically. \nThis workshop is especially useful for instructors wishing to add Google Earth mapping assignments to their courses. No prior knowledge required. Please bring laptops with the regular version of Google Earth pre-installed. \nSpace is limited\, pre-registration required. Please check back for registration information

SUMMARY:Morris Ratner: "A Monument Man in the Courtroom: Litigating the Holocaust"
DESCRIPTION:UC Santa Cruz will present a lecture by UC Hastings College of the Law Professor Morris Ratner titled “A Monument Man in the Courtroom: Litigating the Holocaust\,” on Monday\, April 7\, at 7 p.m.\, at UCSC’s University Center. \nProfessor Morris Ratner successfully prosecuted Holocaust-era private law claims against Swiss\, German\, Austrian\, and French entities that profited from Nazi atrocities by retaining dormant bank accounts\, failing to pay on life insurance policies\, and benefitting from the use of slave labor. Ratner’s litigation resulted in a series of settlements that\, together\, yielded payments in excess of $8 billion to victims of Nazi persecution. Using Holocaust litigation as a lens\, this lecture explores the topics of “what ‘justice’ means for victims of major atrocities like the Holocaust\, the role of private litigation in advancing social causes\, and the ability of individual advocates to prevail on behalf of victims in seemingly lost causes.” Ratner’s discussion of “social justice lawyering” also addresses the question: “Did it matter whether the lawyers in the Holocaust cases were–like the victims–Jewish\, Gay\, or Romani?” \nWatch the Video\n\nMorris Ratner joined the UC Hastings Faculty in 2012\, after teaching at Harvard Law School. An expert in civil procedure\, legal ethics\, and law practice management\, Ratner’s research explores ethical\, procedural\, and organizational questions that arise in multi-party actions\, including class actions and multidistrict litigations. Ratner worked as a litigator at the San Francisco-based plaintiffs’ firm Lieff\, Cabraser\, Heimann & Bernstein\, LLP\, where he was a partner for 10 years. During that time he prosecuted product liability\, mass personal injury\, consumer\, and human rights actions. \nPlease join us for this inaugural lecture in the Hastings Social Justice Speakers Series given by Hastings faculty at UCSC. The Series is a product of the UCSC-Hastings collaboration that also features the “3+3 BA/JD” Program which enables UCSC students to complete the BA and JD degrees in six\, rather than the usual seven\, years by attending both UCSC and Hastings College of the Law. \nAdmission is free and the public is invited\, with pre-registration encouraged to ensure a seat in the event of a sold out event. \nQuestions: Please call Kristin Palma at 831.459.5075\, or e-mail kpalma@ucsc.edu.

SUMMARY:Grant McGuire: "Separating voice prototypicality and stereotypicality"
DESCRIPTION:Current theories of speech perception emphasize the demonstrated role of direct experience in voice processing where greater experience with a voice or voice type results in various processing advantages. This talk describes early results from a project examining the role of stereotypes\, or more abstracted representations not necessarily based in direct experience\, in the processing of voices. Specifically\, we will detail the role various voice types play in phonetic accommodation\, the phenomenon where a talker adapts properties of another talker’s voice. \nGrant McGuire is an Assistant Professor of Linguistics at UC Santa Cruz and recipient of an IHR Faculty Fellowship (2012-13). His primary research interest is in speech perception. He received his PhD in Linguistics from Ohio State University (Phonetic Category Learning\, 2007) and has published research articles on perceptual learning in adults and infants\, audio-visual speech perception\, and gender effects on speech perception.
