History of Punctuation Poster Exhibition Celebrating National Punctuation Day
Exhibition
September 24 is National Punctuation Day. While punctuation may be viewed as a set of rigid grammar rules, the history of these symbols is fascinating, which was discovered by the students enrolled in Professor Joyce Kinkead’s History of Writing classes. Each student adopted a punctuation mark and then researched its origins. These histories are depicted graphically in colorful posters designed by Molly Etchberger, a graduate of Art and Design. The posters are on display in the Merrill-Cazier Library on the lower floor near Special Collections, September 11-October 9. A public reception with refreshments will be hosted by the Department of English on site on Friday, September 22 at noon.

A Bolder Way Forward for Utah
Panel Discussion/Presentation
National and statewide studies continue to show that women and girls in Utah are not thriving in critical areas. Year after year, Utah continues to have high levels of domestic violence, sexual assault, child sexual abuse, and gender-based discrimination, while also ranking as the worst state for women’s equality and having low levels of women’s leadership representation in nearly all domains, including politics and business. Although the needle has moved slightly in a few areas, with its current trajectory it will take two, three, or even four decades to make notable progress. It is time for Utah to embrace A Bolder Way Forward (BWF). When we lift Utah girls and women, we lift all Utahns!
The BWF is framed around systems thinking, which is that “the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.” In Utah, we have been working on related efforts for too long using the “parts” strategy; we need to shift and move together as a system. If we are serious about ensuring that Utah women and girls thrive, we need to create change by 2030, with a check point in 2026. Dr. Susan Madsen will give an overview of the BWF and then be joined by Nubia Peña and Jennifer Smith for further discussion about the BWF.

A Collective Approach Workshop: Dr. Chris Linder
Workshop/Training
As attention to campus sexual violence has grown in recent years, educators and staff have been pressured to respond quickly to comply with campus, local and federal policies. This pressure has resulted in a hyper-focus on compliance and response — after sexual violence happens, rather than working to prevent it from happening in the first place. Educators also may feel pressure to use a one-size fits all, “best practices” approach rather than developing their own, context-specific strategies. In this workshop, Chris talks about moving beyond the “expert model” to engage all members of the campus community who have an interest in addressing relationship and sexual violence. Participants will leave this workshop with several specific strategies they can use to immediately address campus sexual violence and an action plan for developing educational programming for the campus community. Dr. Chris Linder (she/her/hers) is the director of the McCluskey Center for Violence Prevention, which engages in research and education, at the University of Utah. She also is an associate professor of higher education; her scholarship focuses on sexual violence prevention and student activism.

We Are Pussy Riot Or Everything is P.R.
Arts/Entertainment
In February 2012, five young women walked into the Cathedral of Christ the Saviour in Moscow to protest the illegal presidential election in Russia. The young activists, who called themselves Pussy Riot, offered up a 48-second punk prayer, shouting, “Virgin Mary, chase Putin away!” before being dragged out of the church by security. After uploading a video of the performance onto YouTube, the women of Pussy Riot were arrested as enemies of church and state. But when Western media reclaimed the story, Pussy Riot’s protest became the greatest piece of performance art in Russian history. This is their story.
