The Oregon Humanities Center hosts weekly Work-in-Progress Talks to showcase the humanities research of its many fellows. This week, Naomi Sussman presents her research on "Peoples of the Heartland: Native Nations, Sovereign Acts, and the Making of California."

Sussman's research maps how small Indigenous polities in California used relationships with human neighbors and the natural world to enact their sovereignty between 1769 and 1930. Indigenous peoples’ sovereign acts made the California interior into a Native heartland that survived and shaped four waves of Native and Euro-American invasion: first a Native confederacy on the Colorado River and the Spanish Empire, then Mexico and United States. Their story is an epic of Native power and adaptiveness in the face of enslavement and genocide. 

Join us for this Work-in-Progress Talk in the OHC Conference Room (Prince Lucien Campbell Hall 159) at noon on Fridays. These events are free and open to the public. Please register for this event online at ohc.uoregon.edu.

The Global Opportunities Fair is a collaborative initiative hosted by the Schnitzer School of Global Studies and Languages and the Lundquist College of Business (LCB). The event connects students with academic and co-curricular global experiences through partnerships with the Center for Academic Advising, Global Education Oregon (GEO), the Career Center, and other campus partners.

Bringing together academic programs, advisors, student organizations, career services, study abroad providers, and faculty, the fair highlights how international experiences and language proficiency can enrich students’ education and contribute to professional success across industries and sectors.

Whether you’re a Lundquist College student exploring global markets or a Schnitzer School student looking to apply your language and cultural skills in international business contexts, the Global Opportunities Fair is an opportunity to discover new connections, explore global experiences, and uncover pathways that bridge academics, culture, and career development.

Join the Department of History and Paula Findlen, Stanford University, for a talk on "A Paper World: Urbano Monte's Global Perspective ca. 1587."

In 1587, Urban Monte completed the first of three different versions of his world map in Milan. This talk explores why Monte decided to create this ambitious project and how he acquired the knowledge he needed to map the world.  What did it mean to make global knowledge in Spanish Milan? How did Monte perceive different parts of the world from this vantage point? 

Attend this workshop to learn about the Boren Scholarship, an award of up to $25,000 for studying a critical language abroad. This includes languages such as Japanese, Korean, Russian, Chinese, Arabic, Portuguese, Swahili, among others.

This event is part of International Education Month (IEM) programming. View the full calendar of IEM events here: https://international.uoregon.edu/IEM.
