In the eight years between Donald Trump’s first inauguration and his second inauguration, the share of American wealth that’s controlled by billionaires has more than doubled. That is certainly not the case for most Americans. It is a curve that is going vertical over time, and in order to understand the politics of the Trump presidency, you have to understand the mechanics of the big money world. At least that is what our next guest thinks. We are thrilled to continue our series of events in cooperation with Bard College Berlin and the Heinrich Böll Foundation, welcoming award winning author Evan Osnos to Munich, on stage together with his New Yorker colleague Joshua Yaffa.

The challenge is that industry does not speak the same language — and AI, used strategically, can close that gap faster than you think. This session is your translation guide. Long Description: Leaving federal service, NGO's or non-profit — whether by choice or by circumstance — is not a setback. It is a repositioning challenge. And the professionals who make the transition successfully are not the ones with the longest resumes. They are the ones who understand how to reframe their impact, rebuild their visibility, and present themselves as exactly what industry is looking for.In this practical, scenario-based session — the second in a two-part series — Tamara Baptiste shows you how to put your newly sharpened AI skills directly to work on your career transition. That means converting a non-private industry resume into a focused, outcome-driven document that speaks to private-sector decision-makers. It means building a LinkedIn presence that functions as a personal brand platform, not a job history archive. It means using AI to prepare for interviews with the kind of specificity and confidence that comes from actual preparation — not hope. Tamara will also address where AI gets it wrong — including its well-documented tendency to fabricate accomplishments that look plausible — and how to stay in control of your own narrative throughout the process.You have spent years generating impact. This session is about making sure the right people can see it. false

      Can law save the planet? Around the world, a bold new idea has been gaining ground: giving legal rights to nature itself. Rivers, forests, and lagoons are being recognized as legal “persons” in some countries, with rights that can be successfully defended in court. Supporters see this as an inspiring breakthrough in the fight against environmental threats, while critics question its practicality. This webinar is based on a course co-taught with Jill Lepore '95 PhD. It takes you inside the global movement for the Rights of Nature—where it came from, how it works, and whether it can truly make a difference—exploring real-world cases and where it can go from here.

      Professor Corrie Moreau has worked in museums and explored rainforests around the world on the hunt for the most diverse and ecologically successful group of social animals on the planet… Ants!  During these travels she discovered new species, observed important interspecies interactions, and even accidentally “smuggled” home unexpected guests.  In this talk she will share cutting edge research happening in natural history museum collections and the research she does on the evolution of ant-plant mutualisms questioning who exactly is in charge. 

      Prof. Moreau will also share some of her research on the microbiome, which is the collection of microbes living in and on organisms that may hurt or help the host.  Specifically, she has investigated the diversity and function of the bacteria in the gut of ants to understand how these gut microbiomes help their social animal hosts to become vegetarian and build tough armor.  Join us to learn about the amazing world of rainforest research, ant-plant mutualisms, and the importance of the gut-microbiome for the little things that run the world.

      Moreau is CALS Senior Associate Dean at the Cornell University College of Agriculture and Life Sciences, Moser Endowed Professor of Arthropod Biosystematics and Biodiversity, and Director and Head Curator of the Cornell University Insect Collection.

Almost exactly 250 years ago Henry Knox transported cannons through the frozen terrain from Fort Ticonderoga to Massachusetts to relieve Boston from the British. Fort Ticonderoga is a local gem, and with the Ethan Allen associations it looms large in Vermont history. This 250th anniversary of the “Noble Train” has been recognized by extensive reenactments between here and Boston. Join us on Zoom Wednesday, April 22 from 7:00 to 8:00 p.m. for a lively discussion of the book and the history of the Revolution in northern New England. Registration will open soon! false
