SUMMARY:Beyond the Tenure Track: Catholic Vocation in Higher Education
DESCRIPTION:A webinar hosted by the Office of Mission and Ministry at Providence College and COLLIS Institute for Catholic Thought and Culture (Cornell University) and co-sponsored by the Lumen Christi Institute and the In Lumine Network. \nGraduate training often assumes a single path: the tenure-track job at a major research university. But for Catholic scholars\, discerning a vocation in academia shouldn’t principally be about chasing prestige. This webinar reframes professional development within a Catholic understanding of vocation and invites Catholic graduate students to reflect on their academic calling by exploring possibilities for faithful\, flourishing work in higher education. A panel of Catholic scholars from different disciplines and institutions will share their experiences of living out their faith in the classroom\, the lab\, and the wider intellectual community. Together\, they will reflect on vocation\, institutional culture\, and sustaining Catholic intellectual life across the varied landscapes of higher education—from Catholic liberal arts colleges and mission-oriented non-Catholic universities to state institutions. The panel will also open space for the practical dimensions of vocation: discerning how to balance family life\, community\, and parish participation alongside the responsibilities of teaching and research. \nSchedule\n-5 PM-5:40 PM Panel Interview\n-5:40 PM-6:15 PM Open Q&A and Discussion \nPanelists\n-Robert Miner\, Ph.D\, Professor of Philosophy\, Providence College\n-Tyler Thomas\, Ph.D\, Assistant Professor of Political Science\, School of Civic and Economic Thought and Leadership\, Arizona State University\n-Katherine Bulinski\, Ph.D\, Professor of Geoscience\, Bellarmine University \nThis webinar is for graduate students\, postdocs\, and early career faculty.

SUMMARY:Being Human in the Digital Age: A Discussion
DESCRIPTION:The dominance of technology in our lives and the precipitous rise of artificial intelligence in the last few years has raised profound questions. We are being asked to think more deeply about what it means to be human\, how we should (and whether we can) live with our creations\, and what kind of life we can share together. How should we understand these new technologies? How does our use of digital technology form us? Is it changing society in fundamental ways? How should we think about the religious aspirations and dimensions of this new technology?  In this webinar\, professor of theology Jared Ortiz will interview philosopher Anton Barba-Kay about his new book\, A Web of Our Own Making: The Nature of Digital Formation.  \nThis event is being cosponsored by the COLLIS Institute for Catholic Thought and Culture\, the Saint Benedict Institute\, Fons Vitae at Duke Divinity School\, the Kateri Institute\, the Harvard Catholic Forum\, and the St. Kateri Institute.  \nFor more information contact Geoffrey Zokal at gzokal@lumenchristi.org
