Teacher Education and Inclusion in Chile In this talk, Dr. Javier Campos will be discussing his research on preparing Chilean educators for inclusive practice. Over the past three decades, Chile has progressively incorporated inclusion into its educational policies and regulatory frameworks, following broader international commitments emerging from the Salamanca Statement. While these efforts initially focused on the school system, more recent reforms have extended the principles of inclusion to higher education. This shift has coincided with a significant expansion and diversification of university enrollment.These transformations pose a particular challenge for teacher education. Future teachers are expected to become agents of inclusion: they must learn to recognize and address exclusion and to create more inclusive schools and classrooms. At the same time, however, they are university students themselves, navigating institutions that must respond to increasingly diverse student populations and ensure their participation, learning, and sense of belonging.Drawing on a three-year research project conducted across four Chilean universities, this presentation examines this tension by asking not only how future teachers learn to include, but also how the institutions preparing them include future teachers themselves. Dr. Campos has a doctorate in education from the University of Massachusetts and is an assistant professor at the Universidad de Austral Chile in Valdivia, Chile. In 2022, his co-edited book, (Re)building the Pedagogical Movement in Chile: Rethinking Teaching Work Together, was published with Ariadna Editores.   ]]></description><author>cbpark@skidmore.edu</author><category>Lecture</category><pubDate>Tue, 15 Sep 2026 21:00:00 GMT</pubDate><link>http://calendar.skidmore.edu/MasterCalendar/EventDetails.aspx?data=hHr80o3M7J7%2fuPxxwX7RC53%2bzSCrONlvPhOFvPGaXLQ9YpCwI5he3eiPQTTb%2bZfq</link><guid>http://calendar.skidmore.edu/MasterCalendar/EventDetails.aspx?data=hHr80o3M7J7%2fuPxxwX7RC53%2bzSCrONlvPhOFvPGaXLQ9YpCwI5he3eiPQTTb%2bZfq</guid><enclosure url="http://calendar.skidmore.edu/MasterCalendar/imagewriter.aspx?imageId=5425" length="5000" type="image/jpg" /></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sustainability and Finance: A conversation with Audrey Choi 9/15/2026 6:00 PM to 7:15 PM]]></title><description xml:space="preserve"><![CDATA[ 6:00 PM to 7:15 PM - PALMTN Gannett Auditorium:  Audrey Choi is chair of the Generation Foundation and a pioneer in the fields of corporate sustainability and sustainable finance.

Blassingame, a professor at Scripps College, will reflect on her work as proprietor of Primrose Press, exploring how printmaking and book arts can promote discussion of issues of race, racism, memory, and history. Drawing on recent artist’s book projects such as African American: A Handbook, White: A Handbook, and The Benefits of Slavery, she will examine how material form, typography, and process reveal hidden narratives that encourage questioning of inherited assumptions. Blassingame considers the printing press as both witness and tool and will trace how ink carries histories forward while opening space to imagine more just and expansive futures. She invites the audience to consider how the pages of an artist’s book record histories, carry memory, and open space for reflection.]]></description><author>kderose@skidmore.edu</author><category>Lecture</category><pubDate>Thu, 17 Sep 2026 21:00:00 GMT</pubDate><link>http://calendar.skidmore.edu/MasterCalendar/EventDetails.aspx?data=hHr80o3M7J7fLAbVOVkk0SYntfc2A8eZcXHaBFu6KGWxIDKO0v%2biS1zgRacambXe</link><guid>http://calendar.skidmore.edu/MasterCalendar/EventDetails.aspx?data=hHr80o3M7J7fLAbVOVkk0SYntfc2A8eZcXHaBFu6KGWxIDKO0v%2biS1zgRacambXe</guid><enclosure url="http://calendar.skidmore.edu/MasterCalendar/imagewriter.aspx?imageId=5409" length="5000" type="image/jpeg" /></item><item><title><![CDATA[Lively Lucy’s 9/17/2026 6:15 PM to 10:30 PM]]></title><description xml:space="preserve"><![CDATA[ 6:15 PM to 10:30 PM - Falstaff's Falstaff's]]></description><author>ccaplan@skidmore.edu</author><category>Performance - Music</category><pubDate>Thu, 17 Sep 2026 22:15:00 GMT</pubDate><link>http://calendar.skidmore.edu/MasterCalendar/EventDetails.aspx?data=hHr80o3M7J4XpQjZCCBDkYDVPNqcx%2b90y%2bXWbYOrP74EOTtp7dGuGi3eOLZCGx4W</link><guid>http://calendar.skidmore.edu/MasterCalendar/EventDetails.aspx?data=hHr80o3M7J4XpQjZCCBDkYDVPNqcx%2b90y%2bXWbYOrP74EOTtp7dGuGi3eOLZCGx4W</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fox Adler Lecture Media Strike 9/18/2026 10:00 AM to 11:00 AM]]></title><description xml:space="preserve"><![CDATA[ 10:00 AM to 11:00 AM - PALMTN Gannett Auditorium]]></description><author>kderose@skidmore.edu</author><category>Lecture</category><pubDate>Fri, 18 Sep 2026 14:00:00 GMT</pubDate><link>http://calendar.skidmore.edu/MasterCalendar/EventDetails.aspx?data=hHr80o3M7J7fLAbVOVkk0SYntfc2A8eZGsuTJB41ngnup2P9WvZD1daW0YP%2bUN4R</link><guid>http://calendar.skidmore.edu/MasterCalendar/EventDetails.aspx?data=hHr80o3M7J7fLAbVOVkk0SYntfc2A8eZGsuTJB41ngnup2P9WvZD1daW0YP%2bUN4R</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Interrupting the After Image 9/18/2026 11:00 AM to 4:00 PM]]></title><description xml:space="preserve"><![CDATA[ 11:00 AM to 4:00 PM - ART Schick Art Gallery: Interrupting the After ImageSeptember 10 - October 8, 2026  Interrupting the After Image presents work by Ayesha Kamal Khan, Boryana Rusenova-Ina, and Choey Eun Young Cho,  three artists who investigate shifts in meaning that arise from linguistic, geographic, and material changes.

Led by multi-GRAMMY Award-winning guitarist and vocalist Clay Ross, the ensemble binds timeless American folk songs with jazz sophistication, country twang, West African hypnotics, and East Asian ornamentation.   A southern-born roots music aficionado, Ross is also the founder of the world-renowned Gullah group Ranky Tanky. In APQ, Ross intertwines with other Grammy-winning artists: Falguni Shah, an eleventh-generation Hindustani classical vocalist, Moto Fukushima, an internationally acclaimed Issei jazz bassist, and Rudy Royston, a renowned jazz drummer whose fibers were honed by African American church traditions. Together, they approach American roots music as a living practice: something carried, questioned, transformed, and passed on.    Their GRAMMY-nominated self-titled debut album reveals the United States as a place of overlapping histories and evolving traditions, where folk songs become vessels for memory and migration, struggle and hope. In APQ’s hands, familiar melodies open into new textures and unexpected connections, inviting audiences to hear American music as a shared but unfinished story.   About the Artists:  Clay Ross is a 2x Grammy Award-winning artist and the founder of the Billboard chart-topping band Ranky Tanky. A native of South Carolina, Ross moved to NYC in 2002 and has since collaborated with artists as diverse as Gregory Porter, Snarky Puppy, and Bobby McFerrin. Winning multiple grants through the U.S. State Department, he has toured worldwide as a Cultural Ambassador.  Rudy Royston, a Texas-born, Colorado-bred drummer and educator, is known for his dynamic percussion skills honed over three decades. His career, deeply influenced by the celebrated late trumpeter Ron Miles, has seen him explore various genres. Since obtaining a Masters in Music from Rutgers University and relocating to New Jersey in 2006, Royston has collaborated with jazz icons like Bill Frisell, Jason Moran, and Ravi Coltrane. His dedication to music propels him to continually expand his horizons.  Falu (Faluguni Shah) is a GRAMMY Award-winning artist acclaimed for her innovative fusion of modern styles with classical Indian vocal traditions. She has collaborated with renowned musicians such as Yo-Yo Ma, Wyclef Jean, Philip Glass, Ricky Martin, Blues Traveler, and A.R. Rahman. Notably, Falu performed at the world's largest stadium before 132,000 attendees, an event broadcast to billions globally. She has graced the GRAMMYs pre-telecast ceremony, entertained President Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama at the White House, and was the featured performer at the Time 100 Gala in 2009. Since 2006, Falu has served as Carnegie Hall's ambassador of Indian music.  Moto Fukushima, bassist and Grammy-nominated co-leader of House of Waters, blends Western classical, traditional Japanese, and South American music into unique jazz compositions. A Berklee alumnus, he has worked with artists like Mike Stern and Dave Weckl. House of Waters' albums have topped iTunes charts, and Moto has earned accolades like the Sports Emmy and ASCAP Plus Award. Currently based in NYC, his talents continue to resonate globally.    Presented by the Arthur Zankel Music Center. Made possible by the Zankel Music Fund, the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Office of the Governor and the New York State Legislature, and the Alfred Z.

How do Hollywood structures regulate the types of bodies – and therefore the types of creators – who can participate in media production? And how might these structures adapt to accommodate anomalous bodies to create more inclusive and accessible production contexts? In 1988, during the production of The Little Mermaid, lyricist and producer Howard Ashman was diagnosed HIV positive. Rather than firing him, the Walt Disney Company adapted the production culture of Beauty and the Beast to allow Ashman to rest and receive treatment in New York City. What emerged was an accommodating bicoastal production scenario: animators in California and Florida, and Ashman working in and from New York. Above-the-line folks would travel in-between to accommodate Ashman's treatment in NYC. Fax machines and recordings facilitated the rest. This adapted production reveals Disney's willingness (and self-interest) in accommodating Ashman during the HIV/AIDS crisis as well as Disney's behind-the-scenes support of LGBT employees countering public reticence to address HIV/AIDS or even LGBT issues. (This shifts a bit in the mid-90s when Eisner/Disney starts offering partner benefits to entice hires.) It also reveals how structures can enable “disabled” creators, but that such adaptations are political: privileged, limited, temporary. Therefore, I draw upon archival research, oral histories, and textual analysis to demonstrate how disability studies might lead to a reassessment and reorientation within both media industry studies and film history, one that considers embodiment, affect, and lived experience as central to how media is produced.]]></description><author>smatrazz@skidmore.edu</author><category>Lecture</category><pubDate>Thu, 24 Sep 2026 21:30:00 GMT</pubDate><link>http://calendar.skidmore.edu/MasterCalendar/EventDetails.aspx?data=hHr80o3M7J5EsFQSVPeejVMGbIXNb2ii4ZfXA5xLBD7VW7QA7E3g5sfgBkPTesrY</link><guid>http://calendar.skidmore.edu/MasterCalendar/EventDetails.aspx?data=hHr80o3M7J5EsFQSVPeejVMGbIXNb2ii4ZfXA5xLBD7VW7QA7E3g5sfgBkPTesrY</guid><enclosure url="http://calendar.skidmore.edu/MasterCalendar/imagewriter.aspx?imageId=5392" length="5000" type="image/png" /></item><item><title><![CDATA[Dunkerley Dialogue with Ruben Olguin 9/24/2026 6:00 PM to 7:30 PM]]></title><description xml:space="preserve"><![CDATA[ 6:00 PM to 7:30 PM - TANG Payne: Join us Thursday, September 24, at 6 pm, for a Dunkerley Dialogue  with artist Ruben Olguin, whose work with the Survival Kit Collective  appears in 500 Dams: Art, Ecology, and Radical Care at Anaya Springs,  and  Tarah Rowse, Director of Sustainability and Environmental  Initiatives at Skidmore College.

Hosted by Teisha Duncan, this intimate concert combines live performance with simple guided restorative practices such as breathing, mindfulness, and deep listening, in an immersive, nurturing space. Audience members will be seated onstage with the performers, and can choose from a variety of casual and comfortable seating options, with mats, cushions, and chairs all available on a first-come, first-served basis. No experience with mindfulness or meditation is needed—only a willingness to listen, breathe, and be present.About Well-Being ConcertsWell-Being Concerts combine live music with explorations of mindfulness, self-care, and communal connection. Each concert is designed as a restorative listening experience, offering audiences the chance to slow down, be present, and experience music as a source of well-being.The Skidmore series is being developed in collaboration with partners in our community, including Wellspring and the Saratoga County District Attorney’s Office. Together, the partners will help shape restorative practices and connect the concerts with people who may benefit from them.

He will be arguing that a number of old debates around capitalism have returned to the fore – mainly around class conflict, distributive justice, elite control and technological preponderance. In short, the lessons of political economy remain as relevant as ever before, albeit in a different cadence.BIO FOR JOHN CASSIDY  John Cassidy is a reputed British-American journalist and popular economic historian who is a staff writer for the New Yorker and a regular contributor to the New York Review of Books. He has an undergraduate degree from Oxford University, a Masters degree in journalism from Columbia University and a Masters degree in economics from New York University.   Cassidy is best known for his articles and books on economic history, market forces and the underside of capitalism. Two of his award-winning best-sellers are Dot.Com: How America Lost its Mind and Money in the Internet Era and How Markets Fail: The Logic of Economic Calamities (which was a finalist for the Pulitzer prize in non-fiction). His latest book, Capitalism and its Critics: A History from the Industrial Revolution to AI is a monumental piece of research mapping the evolution of global capitalism through the lives and ideas of its critics and commentators from 1760 to the present day. ]]></description><author>jlewis2@skidmore.edu</author><category>Presentation</category><pubDate>Tue, 29 Sep 2026 21:30:00 GMT</pubDate><link>http://calendar.skidmore.edu/MasterCalendar/EventDetails.aspx?data=hHr80o3M7J5JIo4RpcAyXpAinmc2TSONL%2bKEq5w5qYNOyJCf4TW5Y72eK4qTFRLd</link><guid>http://calendar.skidmore.edu/MasterCalendar/EventDetails.aspx?data=hHr80o3M7J5JIo4RpcAyXpAinmc2TSONL%2bKEq5w5qYNOyJCf4TW5Y72eK4qTFRLd</guid><enclosure url="http://calendar.skidmore.edu/MasterCalendar/imagewriter.aspx?imageId=5410" length="5000" type="image/png" /></item></channel></rss>
