We’ll explore and share various goals and what we might need as a group/department to help us move forward in our goals. \nIf you are involved in the PAIR Mentoring program\, this is an excellent space for initial goal-planning! \nWe will also use some time to organize and plan Community events for the Spring 2026 semester. \nWhat is the Community of Practice? \nThe Community of Practice is a space for everyone in the department (lecturers\, GTAs\, faculty) to come together and have chats\, professional development\, speakers\, workshops\, and more related to teaching and learning. There’s no sign-up; simply attend if you want! If you would like to be involved in any planning or would like to run a session\, please email me (henathan@uwm.edu) and let me know. \nThe Community of Practice Canvas Site \nWe have a Community of Practice Canvas site where we keep a signup and modules for past sessions.

Specifically\, Galois Theoretic ideas emerge across disciplines\, all as instances of a single theorem in (higher) category theory. This talk uses that idea to motivate a journey through three main themes relevant to any area: \n\nThe ubiquity of presheaf localizations\nThe concept of a classifying object\nThe pervasiveness of Algebro-Geometric duality\n\nIn some parts\, I will use categorical-theoretic language not with the expectation that people speak the language\, but rather as a demonstration of the beauty of the perspective gained by acquiring fluency. (What better way to motivate oneself to learn a new language than to listen to some of its poetry?) \nThis talk also serves as an onboarding for those interested in research projects on this topic. Though the talk should also inspire those who have no interest in category-theoretic research.
