SUMMARY:Livable Cities
DESCRIPTION:What makes a city livable? Transport\, housing\, health. Open space\, mobility and the environment. Matters of culture\, entrepreneurship\, crime and safety. Affordability and access to education. Depending on whose ‘livability index’ you look at\, it may include design quality\, sustainability and the digital infrastructures of the smart city. Other criteria applied may encompass food access\, job opportunities or walkability. Inclusivity and the politics of participation also come into play. Discrimination in all its forms impacts livability and social and political equity. \n\n\n\nThe past two decades have seen an exponential rise of livability measures. Reflecting increased urbanity globally\, they risk making the notion of the city ever more contested. The two cities that host this event are cases in point. The Mercer Livability Ranking takes New York as the datum by which all other cities globally are graded – as better or worse. London\, by contrast\, measures itself: the London Assembly scoring everything from air quality to indices of deprivation. When we consider the livability of cities then\, it is clear we are dealing with a plethora of issues – both isolated and\, inevitably\, interconnected. \n\n\n\nFor  example\, affordable housing is a neighbourhood issue. It is often linked to other questions: walkability\, transport access\, food deserts\, and poor-quality public space. Equally\, the ‘Smart City’ can be treated as a technical issue. But it also raises questions of equality of access\, surveillance\, adaptive computing and human interaction – not to mention creative economies\, business innovation and entrepreneurial cities. \n\n\n\nThe design of our neighborhoods and buildings is connected to health\, wellbeing\, happiness studies and the ‘economics’ of healthy cities. In its turn\, crime and public safety affect design through practices such as defensible space. Infrastructural and eco-system resilience involves considering clean air\, water supply\, urban cooling and landscape infrastructure. Post-COVID-19 disruptions to work\, leisure and commuting methods require the rethinking of business\, architectural and infrastructural modes of operation. \n\n\n\nLIVABLE CITIES – New York\, is the first of two related events. Held in New York\, June 2023 it will be followed by LIVABLE CITIES – London in June 2024. In both New York and London we will examine the issues above from various angles. We will examine how we live in cities\, and how every issue we encounter morphs with considerations of others\, whether housing\, architecture\, urban planning\, health\, IT\, crime and safety\, city management\, economics or the environment. \n\n\n\n\nSubmit Abstract\n\n\n\nMore Information

SUMMARY:Priority Town Hall on Transfer of Credits
DESCRIPTION:Dear CUNY Faculty and Staff\, Last week\, I wrote to you to share our new initiative regarding transfer and seek your support on behalf of our students. Although much progress has been made to facilitate transfer\, work remains to be done. Students continue to lose credits upon transfer in the same major\, delaying academic progression and resulting in frustration and lost resources. We also need to improve and align our policies and practices to support our transfer students as they move between CUNY schools. \n\n\n\nProfessor Lubie Alatriste of New York City College of Technology is leading this effort on behalf of the University Faculty Senate\, and Associate Vice Chancellor Alicia Alvero is leading this effort for the Office of the Executive Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs. We are committed to working together across faculty governance channels with full transparency for the benefit of our students. \n\n\n\nI invite you to join us in a town-hall conversation and Q&A on transfer reform at CUNY. This will be a valuable opportunity for AVC Alvero\, Professor Alatriste\, and I to brief you on the progress made thus far and the work that still needs to be done. \n\n\n\nFor your convenience\, we have scheduled two dates for virtual town halls for faculty and staff (there will also be one for students on March 2):  \n\n\n\nTuesday\, February 21\, 6:30-7:30 p.m.Zoom link: cuny.zoom.us/j/87822103065Phone-in option: 1-646-931-3860; Webinar ID: 878 2210 3065 \n\n\n\nTuesday\, February 28\, 2:30-3:30 p.m.Zoom link: cuny.zoom.us/j/86534843887Phone-in option: 1-646-931-3860; Webinar ID: 865 3484 3887 \n\n\n\nRSVPs for these events are not necessary. I look forward to engaging with you at one of these events.

SUMMARY:Scholarship for the Public Good: Paths to Open Access Online
DESCRIPTION:Open access scholarly literature—roughly\, scholarly works that are online and free of charge for all—has developed over the past 20 years from wild idea to widespread reality. Open access journals\, books\, and repositories are now established parts of the scholarly ecosystem\, and many consider near-universal open access to be inevitable.But publishing itself is not cost-free\, so how can open access be achieved? There are many possible paths\, some now common\, some more experimental. Which of these paths align with our values as researchers\, and with the mission of the Graduate Center and CUNY as a whole? Which empower the research community? Which should we pursue\, and which should we eschew? \n\n\n\nThe first event in the “Scholarship for the Public Good” series (learn more below) will explore various paths to open access. The event will feature three experts: \n\n\n\n\nPeter Suber (Harvard University) will describe the institutional open access policies passed by the faculties of Harvard and many other universities.\n\n\n\nHeather Paxson (MIT) will discuss the transition of society journal Cultural Anthropology from subscription-based to open access\, and its ongoing quest to fund publication without article processing charges (APCs).\n\n\n\nLeslie Chan (University of Toronto) will examine high-profit publishers’ problematic approaches to open access (high APCs\, vertical integration\, and more).\n\n\n\n\nScholarship for the Public Good Event Series \n\n\n\n“We believe that knowledge is a public good.” This statement of institutional values is emblazoned on the Graduate Center website. But there are many ways to interpret the statement\, and many ways to enact the belief. How can we move from words to action—or to greater action—in the context of our scholarship? \n\n\n\n\nHow can we ensure that the public\, as a matter of course\, has cost-free access to scholarly works authored by Graduate Center researchers?\n\n\n\nWhat changes could we collectively bring about if we centered our values in decisions about where we publish\, peer review\, and serve in editorial roles?\n\n\n\nHow can the library and institution as a whole support these efforts and resist high-profit publishers’ exploitative practices?\n\n\n\nHow might we reimagine “impact” and rework systems of evaluation and reward?\n\n\n\nHow does considering these questions and contributing to these changes benefit our students\, our colleagues\, our fields\, and the public?\n\n\n\n\nHosted by the CUNY Graduate Center’s Mina Rees Library and the Provost’s Office\, the “Scholarship for the Public Good” event series will examine these questions and more\, and explore possible ways that everyone in the Graduate Center community—faculty\, students\, staff\, and administrators—can foster a positive\, public-minded ecosystem of scholarship. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister
