SUMMARY:CTRL+Delete
DESCRIPTION:Ctrl+Delete explores the persistent threat of censorship in the United States\, from historical book bans used to control knowledge and suppress marginalized voices to today’s escalating restrictions—including the removal of books and art from public spaces as well as the June Supreme Court decision (Mahmoud v. Taylor) requiring schools to provide opportunities to opt out of listening learning about books that include LGBTQ+ characters. By tracing these acts of erasure across time\, the show reveals how censorship has shaped\, and continues to shape\, what stories are told and who gets to tell them. \nAlongside overt bans and challenges\, the exhibition also addresses the quieter but equally insidious forces of self-censorship within art and educational institutions\, where fear of controversy\, loss of funding\, or political pressure can limit which narratives are made visible. Central to the exhibition is the Ultra Violet Archive\, an interactive library which resists silencing by preserving cultural memory and amplifying suppressed voices. Projects like the Minecraft Uncensored Library—a digital platform where banned texts are freely accessible—demonstrate how artists\, activists\, and technologists are developing inventive strategies to fight suppression. \nAs part of the exhibition\, we will hold a community reading of Frederick Douglass’s work during National Banned Books Week in October. The exhibition also features a dedicated space where visitors can share their own experiences with censorship creating an archive that underscores the ongoing relevance of these struggles. Opportunities to engage will create a space for shared reflection\, underscoring the enduring power of words to inspire freedom\, dialogue\, and change. \nGallery Hours: Tuesday\, Wednesday\, Friday\, Saturday 1:00 p.m. – 5:00 p.m.\, Thursdays 1:00 p.m.—8:00 p.m.\nPlease note: the galleries will be closed November 26–December 1 for November break. \nBeard and Weil Galleries

SUMMARY:MAP Day Fall 2025
DESCRIPTION:This is a day for exploration\, reflection\, and planning. It is a celebration of learning in its broader sense. In place of regular classes\, participate in special activities designed to reflect on where you are in your educational journey and the steps you need to take to make it where you want to go. \nMAP Day happenings include workshops for students at every stage of their college career and advising sessions for each academic program area\, as well as sessions on topics such as study abroad\, life and career planning\, honors and scholars programs\, and financial planning. There will be a major fair and a graduate school fair\, as well as other career-related programming. (The full schedule of activities will be available soon.) \nThe day’s events also include an academic session in which faculty engage in an interdisciplinary conversation to discuss the topic of “Abundance and reciprocity” from their disciplinary perspectives. The theme was inspired by the first-year students’ common reading selection\, The Serviceberry: Abundance and Reciprocity in the Natural World\, by Robin Wall Kimmerer. \nAnswering your reflective MAP Questions is required for graduation and you can complete them during MAP Day. Please talk with your advisor if you have questions.

SUMMARY:Dal'Ouna presents Traditional and Contemporary Music of Palestine and the Middle East
DESCRIPTION:Ramzi Aburedwan and his ensemble\, Dal’Ouna\, bring traditional musics from Egypt to Andalusia\, through their life experience in the Middle East. Fused with French and Eastern Europe influences\, Ramzi has created folk melodies and contemporary interpretations: “all enhanced by jazzy\, layered improvisations\, hints of other world traditions\, and a profound sense of bluesy lyricism”. The word Dal’Ouna stands for the communal values of synchronicity\, collaborative work and mutual support required for a successful olive harvest. The quartet will bring us an evening of beautiful music and an introduction to the expressive culture of the region. \nFree tickets can be reserved via the Watson Box Office.

SUMMARY:Urinetown...The Musical
DESCRIPTION:Book & Lyrics by Greg Kotis\, Music & Lyrics by Mark Hollman. \nWinner of three Tony Awards and two Obie Awards\, Urinetown is a hilarious musical satire of the legal system\, capitalism\, social irresponsibility\, populism\, environmental collapse\, privatization of natural resources\, bureaucracy\, municipal politics\, and musical theatre itself! In a Gotham-like city\, a terrible water shortage\, caused by a 20-year drought has led to a government-enforced ban on private toilets.The citizens must use public amenities\, regulated by a single malevolent company that profits by charging admission for one of humanity’s most basic needs. Amid the people\, a hero decides that he’s had enough and plans a revolution to lead them all to freedom! Hilariously funny and touchingly honest\, Urinetown provides a fresh perspective on one of America’s greatest art forms. \nTickets may be purchased online through the Box Office once they become availalbe.

Projects like the Minecraft Uncensored Library—a digital platform where banned texts are freely accessible—demonstrate how artists\, activists\, and technologists are developing inventive strategies to fight suppression. \nAs part of the exhibition\, we will hold a community reading of Frederick Douglass’s work during National Banned Books Week in October. The exhibition also features a dedicated space where visitors can share their own experiences with censorship creating an archive that underscores the ongoing relevance of these struggles. Opportunities to engage will create a space for shared reflection\, underscoring the enduring power of words to inspire freedom\, dialogue\, and change. \nGallery Hours: Tuesday\, Wednesday\, Friday\, Saturday 1:00 p.m. – 5:00 p.m.\, Thursdays 1:00 p.m.—8:00 p.m.\nPlease note: the galleries will be closed November 26–December 1 for November break. \nBeard and Weil Galleries

SUMMARY:Urinetown...The Musical
DESCRIPTION:Book & Lyrics by Greg Kotis\, Music & Lyrics by Mark Hollman. \nWinner of three Tony Awards and two Obie Awards\, Urinetown is a hilarious musical satire of the legal system\, capitalism\, social irresponsibility\, populism\, environmental collapse\, privatization of natural resources\, bureaucracy\, municipal politics\, and musical theatre itself! In a Gotham-like city\, a terrible water shortage\, caused by a 20-year drought has led to a government-enforced ban on private toilets.The citizens must use public amenities\, regulated by a single malevolent company that profits by charging admission for one of humanity’s most basic needs. Amid the people\, a hero decides that he’s had enough and plans a revolution to lead them all to freedom! Hilariously funny and touchingly honest\, Urinetown provides a fresh perspective on one of America’s greatest art forms. \nTickets may be purchased online through the Box Office once they become availalbe.
