SUMMARY:Exhibit: Black History Month Pop Ups
DESCRIPTION:The 51ÁÔĆć Libraries are  presenting three special pop-up exhibits in honor of Black History Month in the Libraries’ Distinctive Collections: the American Geographical Society Library. Special Collections\, and the Archives. \nThe American Geographical Society Library’s exhibit focuses on Black Geographies and Cartographies\, including the Underground Railroad\, the Harlem Renaissance\, and modern forms of Black Place-Making. It also features a special focus on the prolific Black Cartographer Louise E. Jefferson whose work challenged contemporary depictions of marginalized people and carved a new space for Black Geographies in the mid-20th Century. \nThe Archives Department exhibit traces the history of public education in Milwaukee over the last 75 years\, with a particular focus on efforts to desegregate Milwaukee Public Schools. \nThe Special Collections display highlights African American art\, including original prints\, livres de artistes\, letterpress printing\, and photography. Artists and poets highlighted are Margaret Walker\, Elizabeth Catlett\, Maya Angelou\, John Biggers\, Wendel A. White\, Faith Ringgold\, Amos Paul Kennedy\, Jr.\, and the quilting women of Gee’s Bend\, Alabama. Also on display in relation to Wende White’s photographic essay is a first edition of Solomon Northup’s Twelve Years a Slave published in 1853. \nThe pop-up exhibits are on dislplay in these areas of the library: \n\nAmerican Geographical Society Library: third floor\, east wing\, Monday-Friday\, 9 a.m.-4:30 p.m.\nArchives – third floor\, west wing Monday-Friday\, 9 a.m.-4:30 p.m.\nSpecial Collections – fourth floor Monday-Friday\, 10 a.m.-5 p.m.\n\n

SUMMARY:Great Books Virtual Roundtable Discussion: Guy de Maupassant\, Three Short Stories
DESCRIPTION:Guy de Maupassant\n“Boule de Suif” (1880)\n“The Necklace” (1884)\n“The Wreck” (1886) \nNo expertise or prerequisites are required. We only ask that you read the selected texts. \nINSTRUCTIONS FOR THE ZOOM SESSION \nIf you think you will be attending the session\, please send Max Yela an email (maxyela@uwm.edu) about your intention to attend (even if you decide not to attend later). He will accept notices of intent until 5:00 p.m.\, Feb. 26. Between 6:30 and 6:45 on the day of our discussion\, Feb. 26\, you will receive an email from him with an automatic password-protected URL. Please use that URL to join the session (you will of course need to use a computer with a microphone and a video camera in it — if you want to be seen\, that is). When you join\, you will be placed in a waiting room that Max will be monitoring to allow attendees into the session. Only those he has emailed will be allowed into the session. This process is intended to maximize the security of the meeting. \nThese discussions are free and open to the public. \nPart of the purpose of the Great Books Roundtable Discussions is to illustrate the pedagogical method of shared inquiry. Another purpose is to disseminate an understanding and appreciation of the philosophy of great books education on the 51ÁÔĆć campus. It was the assertion of the former Great Books Program that its methodology and philosophical approach toward the study of foreign languages\, mathematics\, history\, and great books offers a challenging\, meaningful\, and useful Liberal Arts education. \nSpecial Collections serves as host for the Roundtable Discussions in support of these educational goals. Special Collections’ programs\, services\, and policy of free\, open\, and equal access to all its collections have close affinities to the former Great Books Program’s vision of a vigorous Liberal Arts education and its method of shared inquiry. \nMore information on the program can be found on the Special Collections Great Books Roundtable Discussions webpage.
