Hypothesis: Annotation starter assignments (Zoom)
Thursday, April 18, 2024 4:00–5:00 PM
Description
This workshop is ideal for instructors who are interested in using social annotation in their courses but aren’t exactly sure how to provide guidance to students. The Hypothesis team will review ideas for annotation starter assignments and provide you with ready-to-use instructions for a variety of disciplines and modalities. It doesn’t matter if you’re teaching humanities, business, STEM, or the health professions, or if you’re teaching face-to-face or online — you’ll get strategies from this workshop that you can add immediately to an assignment in your course. This session will take place as a Zoom meeting. Participants will receive the link to join the meeting directly from Hypothes.is.

2023/2024 Christian A. Johnson Endeavor Foundation Artist-in-Residence jackie sumell and Studio CAJAIR present “The Locker Room.”Artist jackie sumell works at the intersection of social sculpture, abolition and healing. With the principle of abolition always in mind, sumell inhabits the physical materials and architectures of oppression and transforms these physical structures into lived spaces of radical hope.For The Locker Room, a work created especially for Colgate University, sumell worked with a team of students who go by Studio CAJAIR (an anagrammatic nod to the Christian A. Johnson Endeavor Foundation Artist-In-Residence program, which underwrites this work). Together, sumell and Studio CAJAIR spent the academic year considering the relationship between athletics and activism, ultimately recreating the architecture of a locker room to envisage how sports and locker rooms can be horizons of liberation. They ask, “What happens if the locker room becomes public, seeded with the best of its potential? Can we make the lockers themselves altars to the future[s] we wish to see?”sumell and Studio CAJAIR, along with students they invited from Art & Activism (ARTS 132A), transformed 12 lockers into altars to future worlds. They imagine everything from ecological justice, racial equity, and classless societies to happiness after retirement, as wins.The Locker Room is presented by the Art Department and the Christian A. Johnson Foundation. The Christian A. Johnson Endeavor Foundation Artist-in-Residence was established in 1986 as a challenge grant in support of the arts at Colgate. The residency program permits one or more artists to become part of the Colgate community every academic year.Opening reception and gallery talk with jackie sumell and Studio CAJAIR will take place at 4:30 p.m. on Wednesday, March 27.Please note that weekend gallery hours are dependent on the availability of student monitors. If driving a distance, please contact the department at 315-228-7633 during regular working hours to ensure the gallery will be open.Learn more at https://www.cliffordgallery.org/ - Apr 1912:00 PMThe People's Pep Talks: Spencer MitchellAcademics | Little Hall, Clifford Gallery (101 Little Hall)

A good storyteller. All are welcome to audition.Sarah Resetta ("Lyons:) Wakeman: Female, 20s. Born to a poor farm family. Tough but not repellent. She can be sharp and insensitive. She longs to see battle. Longs to be her true self. Kind at her core. Vulnerability beneath it all. All are welcome to audition.The Inspiration Set at the start of the American Civil War, Toliver & Wakeman theatricalizes and dramatizes the Civil War experience of two characters from very different (and not so different) backgrounds. Toliver is a young black man born into slavery in Virginia who escaped to New York, changed his name to avoid capture, and mustered into the Union Army's 26th Regiment of Colored Troops (NY). Wakeman is Sarah Rosetta Wakeman, a young white woman, born in rural Upstate New York. She disguised herself as a man and mustered into the Union Army, the 153rd New York State Volunteers, as "Lyons" Wakeman.Contact April Sweeney at sasweeney@colgate.edu for more information.
