SUMMARY:Judaism and Care Ethics: Possibilities and Challenges
DESCRIPTION:This talk will explore the potential challenges faced by efforts to develop a Jewish approach to the ethics of care. In particular\, Sarah Zager will focus on the role that critiques of abstraction have played in both core texts in care ethics and in Jewish efforts to engage with these texts. She will begin by exploring the way anti-Judaism has shaped critiques of abstraction in care ethics\, before turning to how modifying or rejecting the critique of abstraction could be useful for Jewish engagements with care ethics. \nSarah Zager is a Ph.D. candidate in religious studies and philosophy at Yale University. Her dissertation\, titled “I Will Sing of Love and Justice: Jewish Responses to Virtue Ethics\,” explores how Jewish philosophers have combined deontological and virtue ethical approaches to morality. Her second book project\, tentatively titled “The Pain of Imagining Others: Infertility and Care\,” explores how Jewish sources can help us theorize experiences of infertility. \nThe Salo Baron New Voices in Jewish Studies lecture is supported by the generosity of the Salo W. and Jeannette M. Baron Foundation. Presented jointly by Fordham University’s Center for Jewish Studies and Columbia University’s Institute for Israel and Jewish Studies.

SUMMARY:Meaningful Customer Interactions: How to Appeal to the Feel
DESCRIPTION:Join Fordham University’s Center for Positive Marketing and the ANA Educational Foundation (AEF) to hear from top minds in brand activation and sonic and experiential marketing.

Hear actionable takeaways and insightful case studies on how top brands are driving innovation. \nAgenda \n2–2:05 p.m.: Opening Remarks from Marcia Soling\, vice president and content manager\, AEF\, and Dawn Lerman\, Ph.D.\, professor of marketing and executive director\, Center for Positive Marketing \n2:05 p.m.–2:40 p.m.: “When Then Meets Now” Rebranding of Warner Bros.’ Cherished Classic Movie Network\, TCM | Dexter Fedor vice president and head of marketing and creative\, Turner Classic Movies TCM Warner Bros. Entertainment\nThe world’s greatest media network of classic films is anything but classic. The repositioning and rebranding of Turner Classic Movies\, TCM was necessary\, but what happens when your viewers didn’t ask for it? Get an inside look at what it took to turn a network around in 12 months\, top to bottom\, including a virtual film festival. We’ll cover strategy and experiential to conflict over new host chairs for Ben Mankiewicz’s set.

Do you love opening the bright orange wrapper of Reese’s during a football game or twiddling Twizzlers with your fingers?

SUMMARY:Continuing Education: Supporting Patients and Families Through the Dying Process
DESCRIPTION:Familiarizing ourselves with how to help people who are dying and those around them increases in importance as our population ages and the country experiences health threats. Supporting our clients facing their own or others’ dying process requires us to have general knowledge about that process; to understand our own reactions to death; and to know how\, when\, and whether to help. Our ability to empower and comfort our clients around the deaths they are experiencing is strengthened by our knowledge and our own confidence in addressing these topics. \nThis class will review the symptoms of pre-active and active dying and how to help the family at the bedside manage these. We’ll consider what people who are dying want and fear\, and how these concerns may change over the course of their dying. We’ll explore how decision-making and communication affect the patient’s death experience\, including considering how hope and a poor prognosis interact. Participants will be invited to share their personal and professional introductions to death. We will also consider our strengths and weaknesses as advocates. Finally\, we will practice some easy exercises to help ourselves remain grounded despite the whirlwind of emotions around us. \nContinuing Education Hours Offered: 4

We know very little about her life\, but her entertaining melodramas in the late 1830s made a lasting impact; people were still talking about the spectacular murder mystery The Echo of Westminster Bridge well into the 20th century. They address such pressing issues as the struggle for the emancipation of the Jews and of women at a time when both were subjected to overwhelming legal and cultural disabilities. And they brought together in public theatres in largely Jewish neighborhoods both Jewish and non-Jewish audiences to mingle while enjoying such plays as Esther\, the Royal Jewess\, or the Death of Haman!\, even though it was clearly a Purimspiel as well as a melodrama. Although recovering a forgotten but significant Jewish woman writer is part of this project\, it also seeks to emphasize the value of Polack’s gathering diverse communities in the same playhouse to enjoy a theatrical performance. \nSharon Aronofsky Weltman is the director of comparative literature at Louisiana State University\, the Davis Alumni Professor of English\, and co-editor of Nineteenth-Century Theatre and Film. Her most recent book\, Victorians on Broadway: Literature\, Adaptation\, and the Modern American Musical (University of Virginia Press\, 2020)\, was named a “must-read” summer theater book by Playbill in 2020\, is a Top 40 academic best seller in theatre and music—according to Library Journal (March 2021)—and it won the 2021 SCMLA Book Prize. One chapter focuses on performing Jewishness in the musical Oliver! Her article titled “Melodrama\, Purimspiel\, and Jewish Emancipation” on the first Anglo-Jewish woman playwright won the 2020 Nineteenth-Century Studies Association Best Article Prize. In September and October 2021\, she visited the New York City Public Library’s collections on a Fordham-NYPL Short-Term Research Fellowship in Jewish Studies to work on Elizabeth Polack and her contemporaries. In April 2022\, she will begin participating in the Margaret Belcher Visiting Fellowship in Victorian Studies at St Hughs College\, Oxford University\, where she will continue her research on Polack.

SUMMARY:Continuing Education: The Power of Language—Empowering Social Work to Influence Word Choice in Patient-Centered Care
DESCRIPTION:At the heart of communication in health care settings and beyond are decisions related to language and word choice. As palliative care has developed and been integrated across settings and diagnoses\, phrases and concepts\, such as “quality of life\,” “goals of care” and “suffering\,” weave across discussions\, often without consciousness of the cultural\, social\, and historical contexts of the patient and family we are serving. No matter the setting\, words and phrases significantly impact patient and family experiences\, decisional outcomes\, bereavement\, and legacy. Well-intentioned yet misplaced word choice can negatively impact patient interpretation of information and create distance when the goal is to enhance connection. Social workers\, as experts and leaders in communication\, can model and educate as they attend to their own language in speaking and documentation\, and invite colleagues to join them in mitigating the unintended consequences of ineffective word choice. \nContinuing Education Hours Offered: 3

SUMMARY:The Promise and Limits of Our First Amendment
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for the next panel event in Fordham University’s Speech Acts series. The First Amendment limits “state action”—what the government may and may not do—but not private action. In the context of increasing concentration of private speech power\, such as powerful social media platforms that are not governed by the First Amendment\, this panel discussion will consider defenses for and critiques of the state action doctrine\, along with comparative approaches. The discussion will also consider whether our robust constitutional free speech protections go too far in some instances\, failing to properly consider certain harms caused by speech. \nFeatured Speakers\nMary Anne Franks\, University of Miami\nGenevieve Lakier\, University of Chicago\nJulie Suk\, Fordham University\nNelson Tebbe\, Cornell University \nModerator\nAbner Greene\, Fordham University

SUMMARY:Narrowing the Front Door to NYC’s Child Welfare System: COVID-19 Lessons Learned and Charting a Path Forward
DESCRIPTION:In New York City\, the COVID-19 shutdown forced a temporary but radical reduction in the child welfare system—halving the number of reports\, investigations\, and family separations\, reducing surveillance of families in their schools and in their homes\, and restricting support of voluntary preventive services. Early indications seem to suggest that this shutdown did not endanger children. Rates of substantiated abuse did not rise and\, in fact\, may have dipped; rates of substantiated neglect remained unchanged; and children stayed with their families and in their communities. We would like to take a look at this data together and see what solutions emerge.

SUMMARY:Putting on Cologne: An Exploration of a Medieval City
DESCRIPTION:The medieval city of Cologne was a bustling metropolis and a hub of commerce. The city is better known for its economic prowess\, with Jews and Christians working side by side. But it is less known for its contribution to theology and canon law\, from the Jewish to the halakha and Jewish tradition. Nevertheless\, due to the city’s central location between England\, the Low Countries\, northern France\, and the German Rhineland\, it serves as a gauge for assessing many religious\, political\, and cultural processes in the high middle ages. Ephraim Shoham Steiner\, the 2021-2022 visiting scholar and a Fordham-NYPL Fellow in Jewish Studies\, and members of Fordham’s faculty in medieval studies will explore how Cologne served in this fashion\, drawing on examples from both medieval Christian and Jewish sources. \nShoham-Steiner is a professor of medieval Jewish history in the Department of Jewish History at Ben-Gurion University of the Negev and an expert on urban life in Europe in the late Middle Ages. For 2021-2022\, he is the Fordham-NYPL Research Fellow in Jewish Studies and a visiting scholar at Fordham University. He is the author of On the Margins of a Minority: Leprosy\, Madness\, and Disability among the Jews of Medieval Europe (Wayne State University Press\, 2014) and Jews and Crime in Medieval Europe (Wayne State University Press\, 2020). \nThis event is presented with Fordham’s Center for Jewish Studies and the Leo Baeck Institute.

SUMMARY:Jesuits and Boarding Schools: Truth\, Reconciliation\, Responsibility
DESCRIPTION:The Taking Responsibility project has a particular goal to highlight not only the history of Jesuit institutions and sexual abuse\, but also to ask how we can confront and handle this history and its many legacies in the present. Following up on last year’s online dialogue\, titled “Native American Communities and the Clerical Abuse Crisis\,” this event will bring together a Jesuit who has been deeply involved in this question along with two speakers who are leaders at—and in one case a graduate of—the Red Cloud Indian School\, now several years into a Truth and Healing process. The panel seeks to address the pressing question of what it means for today’s Jesuit institutions (and their employees\, students\, and graduates) to take responsibility for the full legacy of the Jesuits in North America.
