How To ProtoSpace: 3D Printing

Marriott Library - J. Willard (M LIB) · Marriott Library - J. Willard (M LIB)

Week 3: Roll for Initiative Ever wanted to turn an idea into something you can actually hold? This week's How To ProtoSpace is all about 3D printing. We'll walk you through how to start printing your own designs in the space. And because we like a little whimsy: we've built a giant dice tower, and if you roll a natural 20 on it, you'll walk away with a 3D-printed D&D dice tower of your own. Bragging rights and loot, all in one roll. Whether you're a tabletop veteran, a maker in training, or just curious what all the buzzing and whirring is about, come learn what our printers can do and leave knowing how to make something yourself. Equipment provided, no experience needed. May the dice be ever in your favor.

School of Biological Sciences Seminar, Thierry Emonet, Yale University

Skaggs Biology Building - Aline Wilmot (ASB) · Skaggs Biology Building - Aline Wilmot (ASB)

Adaptive navigation in bacteria and flies Successful chemical navigation requires organisms to continuously adapt their strategies to evolving signal statistics and environmental context. Both the extraction and utilization of sensory information are dynamically regulated over time. I will present experiments investigating how bacteria and fruit flies implement such adaptive strategies. Specifically, I will show how an isogenic bacterial population leverages the interplay between phenotypic diversity and collective migration to optimize its navigational behavior across varying environments. If time permits I will conclude by discussing how fruit flies modulate their reliance on distinct directional cues derived from the same signal when navigating toward an odor source under different wind conditions.

Brian Goldstone, author of There is No Place for Us: Working and Homeless in America

The working homeless. In a country where hard work and determination are supposed to lead to success, there is something scandalous about this phrase. But skyrocketing rents, low wages, and a lack of tenant rights have produced a startling phenomenon: People with full-time jobs cannot keep a roof over their head, especially in America’s booming cities, where rapid growth is leading to catastrophic displacement. These families are being forced into homelessness not by a failing economy but a thriving one. Through intimate, novelistic portraits, Goldstone reveals the human cost of this crisis, following parents and their kids as they go to sleep in cars, or in squalid extended-stay hotel rooms, and head out to their jobs and schools the next morning. These are the nation’s hidden homeless—omitted from official statistics, and proof that overflowing shelters and street encampments are only the most visible manifestation of a far more pervasive problem. By turns heartbreaking and urgent, There Is No Place for Us illuminates the true magnitude, causes, and consequences of the new American homelessness—and shows that it won’t be solved until housing is treated as a fundamental human right. Goldstone’s book won the 2025 Pulitzer Prize in general nonfiction. Brian Goldstone is a journalist whose longform reporting and essays have appeared in The New York Times, Harper’s Magazine, The New Republic, The California Sunday Magazine, and Jacobin, among other publications. He has a PhD in anthropology from Duke University and was a Mellon Research Fellow at Columbia University. In 2021, he was a National Fellow at New America. — Crown A book signing will follow, courtesy of The King’s English Bookshop.

Lessons for a Warming Planet: A Vital History of U.S. Environmental Law

Wilkes Center for Climate Science & Policy L. S. Skaggs Applied Science Building, Suite W1204 275 S. University Street, Salt Lake City, Utah, 84112 · Wilkes Center for Climate Science & Policy L. S. Skaggs Applied Science Building, Suite W1204 275 S. University Street, Salt Lake City, Utah, 84112

Lessons for a Warming Planet showcases the fundamental role the law has served in reckoning with environmental harm in the United States. Authors Alejandro E. Camacho and Brigham Daniels explore the full arc of U.S. environmental legal history across five major periods in the United States, reaching as far back as North America’s colonization and ending with the present. Through this rich history, the book considers the ways leadership, social movements, political coalitions, information, and technologies have both been catalyzed by the law and have advanced environmental change.

These lumpy beige rocks host a diverse microbial ecosystem that forms a vital piece of the lake's food web but are under threat as the lake shrinks. Beyond their modern ecological role, the lake's microbialites serve as complex paleoenvironmental records and may offer clues to understanding the early evolution of life on Earth. This talk will explore what we know, what we think we know, and highlight critical gaps in our understanding of Great Salt Lake's microbialites. Host: Michael Werner

Please join the Stegner Center for a screening of the award-winning film The Lake which addresses the existential threats facing the Great Salt Lake, followed by a panel discussion with Great Salt Lake leaders and scientists featured in the film. ilm description The Lake follows three Utahns fighting to save Great Salt Lake. The film offers a close look at the sustained, often behind-the-scenes work required to respond to the lake’s decline. Set against the lake’s extraordinary landscape, the film explores what Great Salt Lake means to Utah and what is at stake for the region’s air quality, wildlife, economy, and communities. The consequences of the lake’s decline linger at the edges: increasing dust and an ecosystem under increasing strain—a reminder of what could be lost and why the work to protect Great Salt Lake matters.

Lee E. Teitelbaum Utah Law Review Symposium: Dialogue, Disagreement, and Dispute Resolution

Quinney College of Law - S. J. (LAW) · Quinney College of Law - S. J. (LAW)

This symposium will examine the conceptual boundaries, practical models, and pedagogical interventions to assess the potentialities and limitations of dialogue as a process for fostering productive disagreement or transforming conflict. Can dialogue be understood as a distinct form of dispute prevention, resolution, management, or transformation? Are dialogues and their related concepts and practices, such as difficult conversations or civil disagreements, effective ways to handle conflict? Under what circumstances are they an appropriate process to address disagreements? How should dialogues be structured to promote understanding, more constructive disagreement, or meaningful conversations? How to apply dialogue principles to create broader social change rather than just individual transformation? Is dialogue normatively desirable in the face of power imbalances, deep polarization, or intractable conflicts? What practical initiatives and community interventions can shed light on the use of dialogues to deepen understanding, strengthen connection, or transform human relations? This convening brings together dispute resolution scholars, dialogue practitioners, legal scholars, and other scholars from related fields, including psychology, sociology, political science, media and communication studies, and philosophy to shed light on what dialogues and difficult conversations are, how they are (or should be) conducted, the contexts in which they are beneficial or detrimental, and the interventions that can serve as models for reimagining our relations to others.
