SUMMARY:The Winegard Visiting Lectureship in Physics with Dr. Donna Strickland
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the Winegard Visiting Lectureship in Physics with Dr. Donna Strickland\, Professor and Nobel Prize laureate\, for a lecture on nonlinear optics to high-intensity laser physics. \nThe laser increased the intensity of light that can be generated by orders of magnitude and thus brought about nonlinear optical interactions with matter. Chirped pulse amplification\, also known as CPA\, changed the intensity level by a few more orders of magnitude and helped usher in a new type of laser-matter interaction that is referred to as high-intensity laser physics. \nDr. Donna Strickland is a professor in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Waterloo and is one of the laureate of the Nobel Prize in Physics 2018 for developing chirped pulse amplification with Gérard Mourour. \nRegistration required by March 9. \nLearn more at https://alumni.uoguelph.ca/events/events-listing/2023-winegard-lecture-with-dr-donna-strickland.

SUMMARY:Making Space for Progress: Internationalizing the University as Social Justice
DESCRIPTION:The University of Guelph’s Strategic Refresh highlights the commitment of the university to “further international relationships” as a part of its overall pillar of community connection. The University has also taken measures to advance and entrench equity\, diversity and inclusion into its core values and deliverables. \nThe Teaching and Learning Hub welcomes guest speaker Marsha Hinds Myrie to aide us to contemplate the implications and possibilities of those intersections and offers an innovation of academic internationalization praxis undergirded by social justice. \nThis is a hybrid event. Register to attend via Zoom here. \nMarsha Hinds Myrie looks to the literature resulting from the study of universities’ involvement in the enterprises of African and Indigenous dehumanization and student led justice movements. Beyond highlighting the errors of the past and the passionate demands of students we begin to think about futures and how these can be constructed making space for expanded epistemologies and new relational pathways. \nHinds Myrie’s life and work are an embodiment of dualities and intersections. She is a Barbadian/Canadian citizen with an ancestral\, cultural and intellectual home in Africa. Her career unfolds\, sometimes spectacularly and sometimes confusingly at the intersections of activism and education with research being a forced endeavour to maintain the grace of the academy. \nHinds Myrie is the President’s Gender Equity Committee postdoctoral fellow with a focus on women’s leadership at the University of Guelph and the immediate past president of the National Organization of Women of Barbados. She spent 22 years developing an advocacy model to address the issues of underprivileged groups of women in Barbados and the Commonwealth Caribbean. The major focus of the work is to develop and encourage the use of victim defined services for women and girls affected by various types of gender-based violence while at the same time removing the burden of eradicating violence from women and victims by forcing a stronger lobby in policy spaces. \nThe philosophical mooring for Marsha’s interaction with equity work come partly out of her PhD research which focused on the ways in which political and cultural experiences shaped the development and creation of intellectual spaces and intellectual thought in Commonwealth Caribbean tertiary institutions. The epistemological valleys that create disciplines in the Western academy are still immensely uncomfortable for Hinds Myrie but if forced she would classify her work as womanism\, Black Studies\, philosophy as praxis and intellectual history.

SUMMARY:HeforShe at U of G with Olympic Soccer Diana Matheson
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Wednesday\, March 22nd and celebrate the strength and resilience of our community. The evening will include a keynote speaker and presentations of scholarship and award winners. \nTwo-time Olympic bronze medalist & former professional soccer player Diana Matheson will keynote UofG’s annual HeForShe gender equity event. \nMatheson\, perhaps best known for scoring the game-winning goal in the bronze medal match in the 2012 London Olympic Games\, is also the co-founder of Project 8\, an initiative to help launch Canada’s first women’s professional soccer league. During her keynote\, Matheson will discuss the gender equity challenges that women athletes face in professional sports. A timely topic as Canada’s women’s soccer team is currently protesting their pay in comparison to the men’s national team. \nHosted by U of G’s Gordon S. Lang School of Business and Economics (Lang)\, School of Engineering and Gryphon Football\, the annual HeForShe event also includes a community impact award\, which recognizes a local business’s efforts to improve gender equality\, and scholarships for students to recognize their leadership. \nThe doors open for the event at 6:30PM\, which formally begins at 7:00PM. Learn more about the event here. \nAbout the HeForShe Initiative \nHeForShe is a solidarity campaign for the advancement of gender equality\, initiated by UN. Its goal is to achieve equality by encouraging all genders to partake as agents of change and take action against negative stereotypes and behaviours. Grounded in the idea that gender inequality is an issue that affects all people—socially\, economically and politically—it seeks to actively involve men and boys in a movement that was originally conceived as “a struggle for women by women”.

SUMMARY:Vocal Health First Aid: How to Protect Your Vocal Cords
DESCRIPTION:Did you know a high-voice user speaks at least 4 hours a day? In our job\, at home\, and while we speak throughout our day\, it is easy to be a medium (2-4 hours) or high (4-6 hours) voice user – especially if we are in a job role that requires teaching\, facilitating\, and frequent speaking in meetings throughout the day. \nYet\, we do not think about the health of our vocal cords when even something such as wearing a mask or having reduced lung capacity can impact our voice. \nIn this session about vocal hygiene we will learn about: \n\nWhat our vocal cords do\nHow to take care of our voice and warm up our vocal cords before long periods of speaking\nSide effects of not taking proper care of our vocal cords\nParticipant questions will be answered\n\nRegister now! You can submit questions when you register that will be answered during the talks. We look forward to this enlightening discussion with you! \nAbout the facilitator: \nMarion Samuel-Stevens is a long time session lecturer in the School of Fine Art and Music and is studying Vocal Habilitation (Health) \nQuestions?

SUMMARY:Donation Drive: Menstrual Hygiene Products
DESCRIPTION:Help us support our U of G students’ during Women’s History Month by donating menstrual hygiene products as we work towards ending period poverty and ending the stigma around menstruation. \nMenstrual Hygiene Items that can be donated: \n\nTampons\nPads\nMenstrual Cups\n\nAll donations will go to the Guelph Student Food Bank to support our own U of G students. Please ensure that all donated items are unopened and new. \nFor each item\, you donate you will be entered into a draw to win a $25 Hospitality Services gift card. There is no limit to the number of donations\, nor the number of times you are entered into the prize draw. \nQuestions? Please email wellnessatwork@uoguelph.ca \nWhat is period poverty?\nPeople who experience period poverty are unable to purchase the menstrual products they need\, and\, in many cases\, this means that they cannot go to school or work or otherwise participate in daily life. Or it may mean that those who menstruate are not replacing products with new ones at appropriate timeframes\, putting them at risk of infections and even toxic shock syndrome. \nIn 2020\, close to 25% of menstruating Canadians and about 33% of those younger than 25 faced financial hardship in securing “menstrual products for themselves or their dependants.” In that same year\, it was estimated that “Canadians who menstruate typically spend up to $6\,000 in their lifetime on menstrual hygiene products.” For women who live in remote or rural Canadian areas\, the cost is even heftier — women pay twice as much for menstrual products.” \nOne way U of G has worked towards ending period poverty is by offering products in certain campus buildings. Learn more about the CSA’s Menstrual Hygiene Initiative. \nA note on language:\nWe use the language of “menstruating Canadians” and “those who menstruate” because not all women menstruate and not all those who menstruate are women. Not everybody who menstruates identifies as a girl or woman. Transgender men and genderqueer people who have uteruses\, vaginas\, fallopian tubes\, and ovaries also get their periods. \nWhat does this have to do with well-being?\nThere are many components to well-being\, with community well-being being one of them. Community well-being speaks to ways organizations can be involved in the community and how this can improve the health and well-being of our community members\, including our own U of G students! As come together to provide these donations to the Student Food Banks\, we are also working towards supporting the health and well-being of our students.
