How do I use this calendar?

You can click on an event to display further information about it.

The toolbar above the calendar has buttons to view different events. Use the left and right arrow icons to view events in the past and future. The button inbetween returns you to today's view. The button to the right of this shows a mini-calendar to let you quickly jump to any date.

The dropdown box on the right allows you to see a different view of the calendar, such as an agenda or a termly view.

If this calendar has tags, you can use the labelled checkboxes at the top of the page to select just the tags you wish to view, and then click "Show selected". The calendar will be redisplayed with just the events related to these tags, making it easier to find what you're looking for.

EUTOPIA Languages Week 23 - Does Learning a Language Rewire Your Brain
Faculty of Arts Building (FAB), University of Warwick Campus/Or Online

What is language good for? One obvious answer is communication, which helps us transmit information rapidly and understand the mental state of others, crucial for group cohesion and survival. Moreover, it is often said that learning a foreign language is an enriching experience that broadens our perspective and access to other cultures and ideas.

Arts Equality Diversity and Inclusion - Readalong Sessions, Cathy Park Hong, "Minor Feelings"
Online

As Chair of the Arts Equality and Inclusion Forum, I’m launching an occasional series of readalong sessions designed to address elements of equality, diversity, and inclusion. Although I’m based in Arts, these sessions are open to all staff—anyone is welcome.

As the name suggests, in these sessions we will simply read out loud a portion of an agreed-upon text, with readers sharing some reflections afterwards. These sessions will be online in Teams. Inspired by a similar series at Royal Holloway, I’m proposing that our first sessions address Cathy Park Hong’s Minor Feelings: A Reckoning on Race and the Asian Condition (2020), which I’ve had the library purchase as an ebook, available here: https://go.exlibris.link/08VHR6g2. I’ll be hosting the first of two sessions devoted to this text at 4-5pm on Monday of Week 9 (6 March), and then a second session 4-5pm on Monday 24 April, the first Monday of the new term. I suggest that we read in the first session from the chapter “United,” and in the second session from “The End of White Innocence.”

A signup sheet for the session is available here: Readlong 2023 Winter signup - Minor feelings.docx. Please indicate if you’d like to read, and if so what section of the book you’re interested in. A link to the Teams channel will be shared with the participants closer to the date.

I look forward to seeing those interested on Monday, 6 March! A Teams channel link will be sent to interested participants. Also, please be in touch with suggestions about texts we can read in further sessions, and in the new year!
