SUMMARY:Cal Poly Presents ‘Addressing Racism and Diversity in Music Institutions’
DESCRIPTION:The Cal Poly Music Department will present a virtual panel discussion titled “Addressing Racism and Diversity in Music Institutions” at 11:10 a.m. Thursday\, Nov. 5. \nThe guest panelists will be Stephanie Shonekan\, associate dean of the College of Arts and Science and professor of music at the University of Missouri (MU)\, and Keith Jackson\, dean of the College of Creative Arts at West Virginia University (WVU). Cal Poly Director of Jazz Studies Arthur White will moderate the discussion. \n“Whether obvious\, subversive or unintentional — and for a variety of reasons — racism has long been present in music institutions\,” White said. “Recent world and national events have not only given pause to dismissal of discussions related to this issue but\, in fact\, have proven the necessity for an open and frank discussion about race and diversity in music programs across the country. \n“This panel will discuss the realities of racism and experiences in personal careers It will address why certain literature and pedagogical methods are more pervasive than others and the potential for affecting change through increasing diversity and inclusion.” \n  \nShonekan earned a doctorate in ethnomusicology and folklore with a minor in African American Studies from Indiana University in 2003. She has taught at Columbia College Chicago\, was a faculty member at the MU Black Studies Department and the School of Music\, served as chair of the MU Department of Black Studies\, and was professor and chair of the W.E.B. Du Bois Department of Afro-American Studies at the University of Massachusetts\, Amherst. \nShonekan’s dual heritage combining West Africa with the West Indies allows her to straddle the Black world comfortably. She has published articles on afrobeat\, Fela Kuti and American and Nigerian hip-hop. Her publications explore the nexus where identity\, history\, culture and music meet. Her books include “The Life of Camilla Williams\, African American Classical Singer and Opera Diva\,” “Soul\, Country\, and the USA: Race and Identity in American Music Culture\,” “Black Lives Matter and Music\,” and “Black Resistance in the Americas.” \n  \nPrior to his appointment as dean of the College of Creative Arts at WVU\, Jackson was the director of its School of Music. He previously served as director of graduate studies in music. His teaching responsibilities are in the area of applied music with specialties in low brass and jazz. \nJackson\, a trombonist\, is active in classical and jazz styles as a performer and clinician. In addition to being an in-demand recitalist\, he has recently been a member of the Pittsburgh Ballet Orchestra\, the Pittsburgh Jazz Orchestra and the Pittsburgh Opera Orchestra. He has appeared on several recordings and on public television in jazz\, classical and commercial settings. In recent years\, he has given performances and clinics in Asia\, Europe and South America. \nBefore coming to WVU in 1995\, Jackson was an assistant professor of music at the University of North Carolina – Chapel Hill. He also taught at St Augustine’s College and at the Governor’s School of North Carolina. \nJackson serves the community as member of the Board of the West Virginia Wine and Jazz Festival\, the West Virginia Public Theatre\, the West Virginia Symphony Orchestra\, the Friends Board for West Virginia Public Broadcasting\, and as president of the West Virginia Music Educators Association. \n  \nInformation on White\, who began serving as Cal Poly’s director of jazz studies in 2019\, is on the Music Department faculty website. \nThe panel discussion is free and open to the public. Access to the virtual presentation will be available from the Music Department calendar website. \nThe presentation is sponsored by Cal Poly’s Music Department\, College of Liberal Arts and Instructionally Related Activities program.

SUMMARY:Free Webinar on Entrepreneurship Mindset
DESCRIPTION:Cuesta College invites community members to attend a free webinar examining “The Entrepreneurship Mindset.” The discussion is designed for small business owners and those interested in starting a business or becoming self-employed. \nCuesta College Business Education Instructor Dr. Gary Rubin recently completed research on entrepreneurs’ mindset\, interviewing Central Coast business owners ranging in age from 17 to 81. He sought a group of interviewees who were diverse demographically and in the number of years they have been self-employed. He will present his findings based on his research and interviews. \n“I’ve always enjoyed learning from others’ experiences\, and these 18 people share valuable lessons and their personal thoughts on business\, stress\, decision making\, confidence\, and more\,” said Dr. Rubin. \nParticipants will have three opportunities to attend a webinar on the day of their choice. The same discussion is offered on all three days: \nSaturday\, November 7\, at 10:00 a.m. \nRegistration link: bit.ly/34BTTun \nThursday\, November 12\, at 5:00 p.m. \nRegistration link: bit.ly/2Jk82Ej \nTuesday\, November 17\, at 1:00 p.m. \nRegistration link: bit.ly/35MuZYo \n“An entrepreneurial mindset is not exclusive to business\,” said Dr. Rubin. “It can often be applied in one’s employment\, and it can certainly be applied in leadership roles. The extent to which each of us applies it to our personal lives is a matter of choice\, ability\, and constitution.” \nDr. Rubin received his Juris Doctor Degree from California Western School of Law and has been an active member of the California Bar since 1985. He practices in the areas of business startup\, purchase and sale\, tax\, and estate planning. He has 32 years of teaching experience and has written and lectured on numerous education\, legal\, business\, and tax issues. In addition to teaching business at Cuesta College\, he is also the North County Campus Cluster Coordinator of Workforce\, Economic Development & Community Programs. \nThe seminars are made possible through funding support from the Cuesta College Foundation\, PG&E\, and Gayla Jurevich\, Cuesta College Director of Business & Entrepreneurship Center.
