Please pass along to any interested students: DIS ST / LSJ / CHID 430 A (5 credits) Topics in Disability Studies: Disability, Representation & Intersectionality: Cultural Studies Approaches. Instructor: Ronnie Thibault. Hybrid learning: MW 1:30-3:20pm. The class will meet Mondays in the classroom and Wednesdays on Zoom. What is representation and why does it matter in disability contexts? This class will help you to recognize the ways in which culture and representation work together to frame understandings (and misunderstandings) about disability. The course is media and workshop intensive and together we will apply cultural studies tools and techniques as we question disability representations across a multiplicity of social media, news, popular culture, legal, and additional media platforms. This course will encourage you to think differently about disability representation at the intersections of race, gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation, religion, and nation.

ENVIR 497B (MyPlan) SLN 14422 Sustainable Business Instructors: Ben Packard (UW EarthLab) and Gary Handwerk (Program on the Environment) The notion of a sustainable business has changed significantly over the last 30 years and is currently a hot topic of debate, linked inevitably to analysis of the existing global economy. Our goal in this course is to offer an introductory overview of questions such as, "What is a sustainable business?", "How do sustainability and diversity/equity/inclusion issues intersect in the worlds of business?", and "What does sustainable business look like in the era of climate change?" We'll have a set of guest speakers addressing particular aspects of this topic. ENVIR 497C (MyPlan) SLN 14423 Environmental Law Instructor: Lawrence Watters (Visiting Faculty from University of Lausanne Switzerland and University of Pretoria South Africa) This course examines the framework of Environmental Law. Primary concepts and themes are explored in a systematic approach where each session provides important building blocks. The topics in the first part provide the foundation with landmark cases and leading statutes. The second part contains fresh perspectives and the influence of related fields with lectures by guest speakers. The third part explores Climate Change with an interdisciplinary, national and international perspective related to implementation of the regime.

The disease can be managed by repeated infusions of the deficient clotting factor which is very costly and inconvenient. Furthermore, some individuals develop an immune response (antibodies) to the replacement proteins. Our lab is currently working on gene therapy for Hemophilia A. Our main focus is development of safe and effective gene therapy protocols which will achieve high expressions of the desired clotting factors while preventing antibody formation. Job description: Students will learn a variety of laboratory techniques while assisting ongoing research, specifically in projects that involve Gene Therapy development and Immunotherapy. Techniques include cell culture, sterile techniques, cloning, plasmid prep, microbubble prep etc. These projects require the handling of mice, including collecting blood and dissections. Students will learn how to keep a laboratory notebook and to occasionally read scientific articles. In addition, students will assist in the daily maintenance of the lab (i.e. cleaning dishes, making up stock solutions, etc). This position is ideal for an enthusiastic, detail-oriented student looking for an introduction to research. Work schedule: We are looking for someone to begin training during Spring quarter or early summer. Student will be expected to come in for 10-15 hours per week during the quarter, at least 4 hours per shift. During the SUMMER, full time (40 hours a week, M-F) or part-time (20 hours or more) may be granted based on the PI's discretion. This is a paid position. Students will not get academic credit during summer. However, starting autumn quarter, students may get credit (499) if preferred. Length of commitment required of student: at least 1 year, preferably 2 years. The ideal candidate would be a junior/senior in Autumn 2023 and must have completed the coursework in Intro to Biology sequence. (Biol 180/200/220 by end of this spring). Concurrent enrollment in Biochemistry, Molecular and Cell Biology, or Bioengineering is preferred but not mandatory. No previous research experience is required.

It works towards general education requirements in Social Science and Diversity. It would be of great interest to students of global Black history, intellectual history, and lovers of freedom and liberation everywhere! HSTCMP 356A: Black Freedom Movements in the 19th Century, sln: 21686 Prof. Bianca Dang (bd53@uw.edu ), Spring 2023 T/Th 2:30-4:20 This course focuses on the trajectories and legacies of Black freedom movements that took place in Africa, North America, South America, the Caribbean, Europe, and Oceania across the long nineteenth century. In this course, students will take both a social history and an intellectual history approach to studying Black freedom movements. By engaging with the transnational dimensions of Black liberation movements, this course will explore both the local and global impacts and reverberations of distinct ? yet connected ? movements for Black freedom across the period. The course begins with the 1772 court case of an enslaved man named James Somerset that established the free soil principle in England and ends with Haitian and Dominican resistance to the U.S. occupation of Hispaniola in the 1910s. Each class will highlight an individual movement for Black freedom during the century, ranging from the efforts that formerly enslaved people took to assert their right to natural resources in post-abolition Colombia to Ethiopians? struggles against colonial encroachment that culminated in the First Italo-Ethiopian War. Students will be assigned readings by Black scholars and activists on the history and legacies of these and other liberation movements, including works by Angela Davis, Walter Rodney, Audre Lorde, Achille Mbembe, Frantz Fanon, Andaiye, Cedric Robinson, Oy?r?nk?? Oy?w?m?, Michel-Rolph Trouillot, and Claudia Jones amongst others. -- ____________________________ Mark Weitzenkamp, PhD Academic Counselor for History Smith 315 University of Washington History Department Box 353560 Seattle, WA 98195-3560 (206) 543-5691 ______________________________ -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

The project is based around UW's campus and monitors bird collisions with buildings in order to support our long term goal of finding design based solutions and identifying which species in our area are most vulnerable to collisions. To carry out this research our project needs student volunteers to walk collision monitoring routes for one 90-minute shift a week. Volunteering with us is a great way for students to practice bird identification and engage with urban wildlife, while also gaining experience in a research setting*.* Next quarter we will also be offering a class, ARCH 499: *Conservation Design ? Preventing Bird Building Collisions (*Meeting Time: Wednesdays 6:30 - 8 PM) for students interested in learning more about preventing bird collisions, sustainable architecture, and urban conservation efforts.

There is a solution! Here is a new History topic class that is open to all majors, with no prerequisites. It will work towards the Social Sciences general education requirement. This will combine discussions of race, class, and gender, and follow the global themes of professional sports in the modern world. HSTCMP 466: "Sport in the Modern World", sln: 15443 Prof. Christopher Tounsel (ctounsel@uw.edu ), Spring 2023 M/W 8:30-10:20AM Sport, leisure, and organized competition have been elements of human societies since at least the Greco-Roman period. In many ways, however, sport has served as an 'arena' for the articulation, definition, and rejection of some of the modern world's most foundational elements. In this class we will investigate the ways in which societies throughout the world have used sports to make particular arguments about race, gender, class, empire, and nationality since the end of the eighteenth century. Particular themes that we will explore include the roles of cricket and soccer in the British Empire, 'Muscular Christianity' and the ideological roots of the YMCA, shifting conceptions of manhood, the 'Nazi' Olympics of 1936, the monetization of professional sports, and the evolving relationship between sports, politics, and human rights. -- ____________________________ Mark Weitzenkamp, PhD Academic Counselor for History Smith 315 University of Washington History Department Box 353560 Seattle, WA 98195-3560 (206) 543-5691 ______________________________ -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

We consider how feminist theory has transformed and been transformed by intellectual, poetic, and aesthetic traditions as it moves throughout the U.S. borderlands and across Abya Yala (known as North, Central, and South America). Each seminar meeting consists of a brief lecture, discussion break-out groups, a mid-way break, and a viewing/listening to relevant film, media or audio texts, guest speaker, or assignment workshop. This quarter seminar is linked to the Sound Collaboratory Symposium and Yale University Professor Daphne Brooks?s Distinguished Katz Lecture. Brooks is author of Liner Notes for the Revolution: The Intellectual Life of Black Feminist Sound, Harvard University Press. -- HONORS 232 C: The Ecology of Urban Seattle (5 credits, SSc, W) SLN: 21296 Professor: Richard Conlin Description: Through classroom and field experiences, examine the social, design, political, and ecological factors in urban systems that promote healthy urban neighborhoods and the integration of urban communities and ecological realities. Use these interactions to gain a deeper awareness of how these systems function in relationship to each other, to social and economic diversity, and to growth management and climate change. Use a Race and Social Justice (RSJ) screen as a key element in evaluating how communities are shaped. -- HONORS 232 D: Locating Race and Racism (5 credits, SSc, DIV, W) SLN: 21308 Professor: Felicia Ishino Description: This course is an immersive class intended to increase awareness of events that have both shaped and disrupted systems of racism and oppression in the United States. We will examine historical context, engage in opportunities for self-reflection and dialogue, and explore how to take action and make contributions both personally and professionally. -- HONORS 391 A: Climate Change: An Interdisciplinary Perspective: Science, Art, and Activism (5 credits, A&H/SSc/Nsc, W) SLN: 15322 Professor: Bob Pavia Description: This course investigates the science of climate change in the context of social and political constraints. It further explores the role of art and activism in communicating climate impacts and catalyzing change. Students gain knowledge of key atmospheric and ocean science principles including the impact of science and uncertainty on social change and the climate crisis. We use our understanding of climate science to explore how scientists, artists and musicians connect climate science to emotional engagement and activism. Climate change has social justice ramifications for communities and nations, as well as the scientists doing research. In studying climate change, students will develop skills for critically evaluating the popular portrayal of scientific concepts and their role in policy debates as a way to gain a deeper appreciation for the complexity of developing sustainable and just adaptations to the climate crisis.

This course will provide an overview of ?the biotic controls on chemistry of the environment and the geochemical controls of the structure and function of ecosystems? (Howarth R. W. 1984). This will include the elemental cycling of major components of local and global biogeochemical cycles. Topics will include exploring the transfer of energy and nutrients within terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems, and the interactions among sources of nutrients to each ecosystem. The movement of the elements of carbon (C), nitrogen (N), phosphorous (P) and sulfur (S) will be evaluated, along with their incorporation into other minerals and solutes as they transfer from the atmosphere, through terrestrial ecosystem and into aquatic systems over both short and long timescales.
