Celebrate the end of the spring semester with UCITE and engage with Glennan Fellows and Nord Grant recipients — including Prof. Gertsman who received the Nord grant for her innovative course on medieval Jewish art — to learn about their projects and how they are empowering people to learn. Our virtual Teaching & Learning Colloquium will take place Friday, May 14 from 1:00 p.m. to 2:30 p.m.
Register HERE for the event.
Join us for the many papers presented by the CWRU graduate students and alumni at the International Congress for Medieval Studies! Among them are Reed O’Mara, Ben Levy, and Julia LaPlaca (MA, 2020), speaking about medieval Hebrew manuscripts, and Kristen Herdman (MA, 2016) presenting on Medingen Prayer Books. Click below to learn more about their papers or go directly to see the full program here.
Click here to register for Prof. Gertsman’s lecture, “Animal Affinities,” which will considers a striking Hebrew manuscript as a nucleus of images and ideas that coalesce around medieval Jewish identity. Professor Gertsman is recipient of the 2021 Baker-Nord Center Award for Distinguished Scholarship in the Humanities, which recognizes outstanding achievement in a field of humanistic scholarship.
Congratulations to this year’s Friends of Art Awards winners, Reed O’Mara, Mackenzie Clark, and Bing Wang!
