You might encounter the ACW’s Poetry Machine.The Poetry Machine is an old capsule machine, the kind you might spend two quarters to get a bouncy ball, sticky hand, or small plastic alien from in the vestibule of a convenience store. With our machine, you can get your very own poem (for free—no quarters necessary).Inside the Poetry Machine are 10 different poems. Each one features a unique style of poetry, including haiku, cento, epistolary, list, ode, ekphrasis, prose poem, how-to, erasure, and cut-up.If you want to "check out" more poetry, visit the poetry display on the third floor of Case-Geyer. - All dayUniversity Libraries: National Poetry MonthToday's Events | Case-Geyer Library

Through an ongoing series of community conversations, the artist and architect Suchi Reddy has been in dialog with students, faculty, staff and townspeople throughout the 2024-2025 academic year to learn about the ways in which our encounters with reflection and misreflection in physical and digital spaces contribute to our experience of bias and belonging. A culmination of the year's conversations, Bias and Belonging poetically reframes the Colgate community's embodied experience of belonging in woven, textual and digital forms. Bias and Belonging is the latest iteration of Reddy's ongoing exploration into embodied states of being that reflect our individual and collective experience as we code switch and transform in evolving environments both digital and physical.Presented by the Art Department and the Christian A. Johnson Foundation*.Join us for the exhibition opening reception and gallery talk Friday, April 4, 4 p.m. (part of Arts, Creativity, and Innovation Weekend 2025).*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.*Please note: Weekend hours are dependent on the availability of student monitors. If driving a distance, please contact the department (315-228-7633), during regular working hours, to ensure the gallery will be open. The gallery is not open during university breaks and holidays. - 10:30 AM6hSuchi Reddy: Bias and Belonging ExhibitionCampus Life | Little Hall, Clifford Gallery (101 Little Hall)

Dr. Nell Shapiro Hawley, Postdoctoral Fellow in Religion at VassarStrange languages, superpowers, and otherworldly quests are beloved tropes in coming-of-age fantasy literature. The Aru Shah novels (Disney Hyperion, 2018-22), a bestselling fantasy series written by Roshani Chokshi, repurpose these genre expectations in order to allegorize second-generation American Hindu adolescence today.Here the heroine’s discovery of her superpowers is explicitly tied to a Hindu mythological world that is both strange and familiar to her. Through Aru’s complex relationship with language—her muted ability to understand Indian languages, but her deep intimacy with the stories of Hindu myth—the novels seek to frame meaningful Hindu knowledge as subjective, emotional, and interpersonal.Nell Shapiro Hawley is a scholar of South Asian religions, primarily Hinduism. Her work addresses popular religious movements, gender and performance studies, and interactions between the classical and the contemporary. A longstanding area of focus has been the text and performance traditions of the Sanskrit epic Mahabharata. - 4:15 PM1h 45mPowers of Translation: Hindu Mythology, Fantasy Literature, and the Language of BelongingAcademics | Lawrence Hall, 105
