SUMMARY:What Could a University Be? A Panel Discussion
DESCRIPTION:Robert Gibbs’ recent book\, What Could a University Be? Revolutionary Ideas for the Future\, based on his 2019 JV Clyne lecture series at Green College\, raises fundamental questions about the education our research universities offer students. By focusing on the possibilities for all of our students to learn how to do research\, the book proposes three revolutions that help guide a series of changes that are underway at our universities.  \n  \nThese revolutions—Upside-Down\, Inside-Out\, and Round and Round—together describe switching the flow of research\, especially the questions\, from the students to the faculty; tapping into the flow of questions from society into the university with commuting students\, thus connecting with the community; and engaging the variety of modes of research across the diverse faculties. The panel will explore the book’s new ideas and proposed revolutions from a range of fields. \nThis event is open to the general public and does not require registration (but please note that our seating is limited). Lemonade will be served at 4:30 pm\, and the event will be followed by a reception in the Piano Lounge\, Graham House. \n\nDr Robert Gibbs is a professor of Philosophy and Religion at the University of Toronto. He was the inaugural director of the Jackman Humanities Institute at the University of Toronto\, where he engaged in exploring new horizons for humanities research\, supporting leading scholars at all career stages. He presented a JV Clyne lectures series at Green College in 2019\, from which he formed the core of his recent book What Could a University Be? Revolutionary Ideas for the Future. His research is located on the borderlines of philosophy and religion\, with a focus on Jewish philosophy and related fields in continental philosophy. \nAs the provost and vice president\, academic\, UBC Vancouver\, Dr Gage Averill plays a vital role\, with a range of responsibilities that include providing vision and leadership to the Faculties\, overseeing the budget\, leading institutional planning\, and ensuring UBC maintains excellence in its delivery of undergraduate\, graduate\, and professional education.

SUMMARY:UBC CPD: Speaking with Care: Culturally Safe Language in Medicine
DESCRIPTION:This webinar invites health professionals in British Columbia to reflect on how cultural safety and anti-Indigenous racism intersect with everyday clinical practice. With a focus on practical application\, the session explores how language\, assumptions\, and power dynamics can shape patient experiences—and how clinicians can take meaningful steps toward more respectful\, patient-centered care for Indigenous patients and communities. \nGrounded in Canadian commitments to truth\, reconciliation\, and equity in health care\, the session emphasizes cultural safety as an ongoing practice of reflection\, accountability\, and relationship-building rather than a checklist. Participants will leave with practical insights they can integrate into daily clinical interactions across a range of practice settings.
