Irene Miller, social psychologist and Holocaust survivor, will take you on a survival journey little written and known about. You will sleep in the winter under an open sky on the no man’s land; you will freeze in a Siberian labor camp where the bears come to your door front. In Uzbekistan, you will live on boiled grass or broiled onions, and shiver with malaria. You will spend years in orphanages. By the end, you will wonder how a child with this background grows up to become a positive, creative, accomplished woman with a joy of living and love to share. Ella Brown, University of Michigan Researcher at Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund, will share the results of her NSF-funded research with wild male mountain gorillas; specifically, how male gorillas become silverbacks, and why individuals may mature at different rates. Her findings bring us closer to understanding our shared evolutionary lineage. Her presentation will feature original footage of wild mountain gorillas nearly 12,000ft high in the volcanoes of Rwanda.  Looking forward to seeing you October 10-11, 2025 Get a Sneak Peek During Preview Week Want a closer look at life as a Spartan?

Dr. Lizbette Ocasio-Russe, professor of creative writing at Southern New Hampshire University, discusses the power of comics and graphic novels and their role of problematizing canonic literature. Her webcomic "Xcommunicada" uses fictional storylines set in nonfictional places to critique heteropatriarchal hegemony that shaped political, economic, and social forces by colonizing and eradicating indigenous natives and their beliefs. "Xcommunicada" celebrates humanity and embraces diverse beliefs, as demonstrated by the protagonist who must get in touch with her ancestors’ native beliefs in order to defeat the evil plaguing her home. Dr. Stacy Erickson-Pesetski, professor of English & associate dean of academic affairs at MU, shares her experiences reading Shakespeare with incarcerated adults and juveniles in Indiana prisons and jails for the past 12 years. She suggests that programs like this are an important and needed piece of the criminal justice system and gives evidence that they increase literacy, promote community, and offer emotional outlets for those recovering from trauma and addiction. Paired with a screening of the 2024 film Sing Sing on Tuesday, Oct. 28. In conjunction with the Oct. 27 program, join us for a showing of the 2024 film Sing Sing, followed by a discussion with Dr. Stacy Erickson-Pesetski. The film's runtime is 1 hour 45 minutes. MBA applications must be received no later than Nov 1 Clarke Staton, chaplain resident at Ascension St. Vincent in Indianapolis, will discuss his work as a hospital chaplain. A former youth pastor, he has completed three Clinical Pastoral Education units at Ascension St. Vincent’s Hospital system, most recently serving as one of their select resident interns.
