SUMMARY:Historians of the Jews and the Making of Plague Memory
DESCRIPTION:This is the second conversation between professor Joshua Teplitsky and professor Magda Teter on disease and plagues in Jewish history and memory. During this installment Teplitsky and Teter will discuss the role historians have played in shaping public memory of the plagues.

He is the author of Prince of the Press: How One Collector Built History’s Most Enduring and Remarkable Jewish Library\, which was a finalist for the National Jewish Book Award.

She is the author of Blood Libel: On the Trail of an Antisemitic Myth\, Sinners on Trial: Jews and Sacrilege After the Reformation\, and Jews and Heretics in Catholic Poland. She has published numerous articles in English\, Hebrew\, Italian\, and Polish. Her research has been supported by the John Simon Guggenheim and Harry Frank Guggenheim Foundations\,the Yad Ha-Nadiv Foundation\, Harvard University\, and the NYPL’s Cullman Center for Scholars and Writers\, among others. \nAll Fordham events in Jewish Studies are free. \nThe Zoom link will be sent 1-2 days prior to the event to all registered participants.

SUMMARY:Orthodox Jews vs. the State: Responses to COVID-19 in the US\, UK\, and Israel
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a panel discussion about responses to the pandemic in Jewish ultra-Orthodox communities on three continents. Social scientists from the UK\, the US\, and Israel will share how ultra-Orthodox communities have negotiated\, worked with\, and sometimes defied the state in the course of the pandemic and consider potential lasting impacts. \nPanelists: \nBen Kasstan (HUJI and University of Sussex\, UK) holds a Ph.D. from Durham University and is a medical anthropologist with field experience in the UK\, Ireland\, Israel\, Lesotho\, Gambia and Nigeria. Currently serves as Associate Editor for Anthropology & Medicine\, and Queer Here. Dr. Kasstan is committed to applying anthropological research to inform public debates and policy. He has written for The Huffington post\, CORTH at Sussex\, Ha’aretz\, and Times of Israel\, and most recently led a response to claims that the US Center for Disease Control & Prevention was being advised to revise its language (#CDC7words)\, published in PLOS Public Health Perspectives and Somatosphere. Dr. Kasstan has also served as a consultant for the recent BBC Radio 4 and British Museum series Living with the Gods. \nSchneur Zalman Newfield (BMCC\, CUNY) holds a Ph.D. from NYU’s Department of Sociology. His research interests focus on cultural sociology and the study of identity\, narrative\, and resocialization. In particular he is interested in the process individuals undergo when making major life transitions. His book\, Degrees of Separation: Identity Formation While Leaving Ultra-Orthodox Judaism (Temple University Press\, April 2020) explores the lives of a group of men and women who were raised in ultra-Orthodox Jewish communities and decided to leave that way of life. \nLea Taragin-Zeller (Cambridge University\, UK and Technion\, Israel) trained at Hebrew University in Jerusalem and at Cambrige\, Dr. Taragin-Zeller’s interests lie in anthropology of religion (esp. Judaism\, Islam and interfaith relations); medical anthropology (esp. health decision making\, reproduction and ethnic minority and migrant health); gender and sexuality (esp. body\, modesty\, and transnational feminism)\, and anthropology of education (esp. sex education; science and technology). She has published widely in leading journals in sociology\, anthropology and religion and serves as a section editor in Cambridge’s journal of Reproductive Biomedicine and Society Online. Her current project: “Communicating Science among the Jewish Ultra-Orthodox in Israel: Journalistic Praxis and Audience Reception in Insular Communities” explores whether and how the Haredi community in Israel is legitimating and appropriating scientific knowledge. \nModerator: \nAyala Fader (Fordham) received her PhD from New York University and is currently Professor of Anthropology at Fordham University. She is the author of the award-winning book Mitzvah Girls: Bringing Up the Next Generation of Hasidic Jews in Brooklyn (Princeton 2009). Recent fellowships include the National Science Foundation and the National Endowment for the Humanities in support of her latest book\, Hidden Heretics: Jewish Doubt in the Digital Age (Princeton\, 2020). Fader is the co-founder and co-convener of the New York Working Group on Jewish Orthodoxies at Fordham’s Center for Jewish Studies. \nAll Fordham events in Jewish Studies are free. \nQuestions?

SUMMARY:2020 STEM Virtual Fair
DESCRIPTION:The 2020 Virtual STEM Fair is open to all undergraduate students (GSB\, FCRH\, FCLC\, PCS) as well as students from GSAS\, GSE\, GRE\, the PCS graduate division and alumni of these programs. This event was rescheduled due to the coronavirus pandemic. \nThe STEM Virtual Fair will expose students and alumni to careers in the sciences\, technology\, engineering\, and math fields. Employers in these industries will be in attendance to market a variety of positions\, including full-time\, part-time\, internship\, graduate school programs and fellowship. All types of roles will be advertised\, so please come prepared to discuss your interests\, and don’t forget to upload your resume. \nPlease register ahead of time on Handshake. Before the event\, please get familiar with the CareerEco fair platform. \nYou can take an overview video tour of the system here: https://player.vimeo.com/video/106122434 \nThis overview takes you through everything from how employer chat rooms work to how to upload documents to your CareerEco profile. \nAttendees are encouraged to research participating organizations. Learn about the companies and think of questions you’ll want to ask. You can look companies up on Handshake to learn more about the specific positions they have available. You can also mark your interest in a company by clicking the “interest” checkbox on the CareerEco site. This will notify the company that you are interested in speaking with them. \nAttendees should have prepared a resume and have it reviewed by a career adviser. \nBecause you’re going to provide your resume to employers you meet with\, you’re going to want it up-to-date and spotless for the optimal first impression. You can have your resume reviewed virtually by a counselor. Once it is complete you can upload it to your CareerEco profile. \nAlso please make sure sure your LinkedIn profile is up-to-date. Employers will be searching for you online\, so you want to ensure your virtual profile aligns with your resume and best highlights your experience and skills. \nAttendees should also practice an elevator pitch. How will you introduce yourself? Why are you interested in the company? What types of positions are you seeking? You’ll want to spend some time thinking about questions like these so you’re ready to answer them without hesitation when the time comes. Your well-thought-out responses could impress a recruiter and allow you to stand out from the crowd of applicants. \nPlease make sure your technology is ready. You’ll want to make sure your device is capable of supporting you in the virtual career fair. For the STEM Virtual Fair\, CareerEco recommends using Firefox or Google Chrome as your browser. You may also want headphones if you cannot attend from a quiet\, private location. \nAt the event \nEven if the fair is not in-person you still should dress to impress. Dressing the part helps you feel more confident and gets you in the right mindset to interact professionally. Dressing professionally also ensures you are ready in case a recruiter wants to talk face-to-face via a virtual video call. \nMake sure you plan out where you’ll be attending the virtual career fair from. A quiet location is ideal so you can focus all your attention on interacting with recruiters. \nAt virtual career fairs\, it’s all the more important to exert yourself to make connections. Once an employer engages you in a chat\, make sure you introduce yourself and ask questions about the organization and open positions. Attendees must present themselves to employers and feel confident doing so. \nBeing a virtual career fair\, much of your communication will be done through written interactions in the chat function of the platform. You’ll want to demonstrate articulate written communication by having great grammar and appropriate spelling. \nWhen talking to recruiters at the career fair\, don’t hesitate to be forward and offer to send a copy of your resume! You also can ask about the next steps in the process—whether that means getting in touch with human resources\, filling out a job application or sitting down for a formal interview. Before parting ways with a recruiter\, be sure to take down their contact information. Some employers may have it uploaded and accessible within the virtual career fair platform. If not\, ask how you can stay in touch. You’ll need this information for following up after the virtual career fair. \nAfter the fair \nReach out the next day with a thank you. Make sure you follow-up and reach out to the connections you made at the career fair. Thank them each individually for their time and personalize these thank you notes. This is also a time to further express your interest in the company. You may also want to send them your resume if you haven’t already\, along with your portfolio or work samples if you have any. You can also stay in touch by adding the recruiter on LinkedIn and sending them a message there.

SUMMARY:Hidden Heretics: Jewish Doubt in the Digital Age
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a conversation between Ayala Fader and Robert Orsi on the digital book launch of Fader’s Hidden Heretics: Jewish Doubt in the Digital Age (Princeton University Press\, 2020). In stories of conflicts between faith and self-fulfillment\, Hidden Heretics explores the moral compromises and divided loyalties of individuals facing life-altering crossroads. This is a revealing look at Jewish men and women who secretly explore the outside world\, in person and online\, while remaining in their ultra-Orthodox religious communities. \nWhat would you do if you questioned your religious faith\, but revealing that would cause you to lose your family and the only way of life you had ever known? Hidden Heretics tells the fascinating\, often heart-wrenching stories of married ultra-Orthodox Jewish men and women in 21st century New York who lead “double lives” in order to protect those they love. While they no longer believe that God gave the Torah to Jews at Mount Sinai\, these hidden heretics continue to live in their families and religious communities\, even as they surreptitiously break Jewish commandments and explore forbidden secular worlds in person and online. Drawing on five years of fieldwork with those living double lives and the rabbis\, life coaches\, and religious therapists who minister to\, advise\, and sometimes excommunicate them\, Fader investigates religious doubt and social change in the digital age. \nAyala Fader received her Ph.D. from New York University and is currently a professor of anthropology at Fordham University. She is the author of the award-winning book Mitzvah Girls: Bringing Up the Next Generation of Hasidic Jews in Brooklyn (Princeton 2009). Her recent fellowships include the National Science Foundation and the National Endowment for the Humanities in support of her latest book\, Hidden Heretics: Jewish Doubt in the Digital Age (Princeton\, 2020). Fader is the co-founder and co-convener of the New York Working Group on Jewish Orthodoxies at Fordham’s Center for Jewish Studies. \nRobert Orsi is the Grace Craddock Nagle Chair of Catholic Studies at Northwestern University\, where he is also professor of religious studies\, history\, and American studies. Professor Orsi studies modern and contemporary religion\, with a special focus on Catholic practices and ideas\, from both historical and ethnographic perspectives. He also researches and writes on theory and method in the study of religion. He is a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and has been a recipient of fellowships from the NEH and the Guggenheim Foundation. His books include\, The Madonna of 115th Street: Faith and Community in Italian Harlem\, 1880-1959; Thank You\, Saint Jude: Women’s Devotion to the Patron Saint of Hopeless Causes; and Between Heaven and Earth: The Religious Worlds People Make and the Scholars Who Study Them. His most recent book is History and Presence (2016\, Belknap Imprint of Harvard University Press). \nAll Fordham events in Jewish Studies are free. This event will be a webinar via Zoom. Link will sent 1-2 days prior. \nQuestions? Contact:\nFordham Jewish Studies\njewishstudies@fordham.edu \n718-817-3929
