SUMMARY:HTA - Beauty and Poise: Women Writers of the Harlem Renaissance
DESCRIPTION:Humanities Teacher Award winner Lashonda Levy (Holmes Community College) will present her public lecture\, “Beauty and Poise: Women Writers of the Harlem Renaissance.” This presentation will take place at the McMorrough Library on Holmes’ Goodman Campus. Reception to follow. \nThe toxicity of the culture of display is not a new revelation. Shakespeare deals with it in Coriolanus. He shows how displaying oneself in a performative manner encourages duplicity and distortion\, whereas casting off one’s need to be seen allows one to live truthfully. His message reaches across time to encompass the dangers of some current social media trends.

SUMMARY:HTA - Unvexed to the Sea: The Impact of the Siege of Vicksburg on the Civil War and Mississippi
DESCRIPTION:Humanities Teacher Award winner Chris Tingle (Northwest Mississippi Community College) will present his public lecture\, “Unvexed to the Sea: The Impact of the Siege of Vicksburg on the Civil War and Mississippi.” This presentation will take place at the Haraway Center on the NWMCC Senatobia Campus and also be streamed via Zoom. Reception to follow. \nOne of the most critical episodes of the Civil War was the Vicksburg campaign. When Confederate troops surrendered the city of Vicksburg on July 4\, 1863\, the South lost its last stronghold on the Mississippi River. The action around Vicksburg is not only a fascinating study in military history\, but also a harrowing look at the effects that siege tactics have on a civilian population. The Vicksburg campaign is an important focal point in both Civil War and Mississippi history.

SUMMARY:SB - Baughn - Separate But Equal?: African American Schools in Mississippi
DESCRIPTION:Mississippi’s African American school buildings still occupy the center of their communities\, recalling the struggles of segregation but also the attempts to overcome it. African American attempts to gain parity with white schools in the 1920s with assistance from the Julius Rosenwald Fund gave way to stagnation during the Great Depression\, when many consolidated white schools were built with federal grants. By the 1950s\, threats from the Civil Rights movement forced the Mississippi Legislature to fund a massive “Equalization Program” that built sprawling consolidated campuses in every county in the state in an effort to create a segregated system that was truly “separate but equal.”

SUMMARY:HTA - The Sound: Analog Vs Digital Audio and How Microphones Work for Broadcast Journalists
DESCRIPTION:Humanities Teacher Award winner Dr. Eric Dogini  (Alcorn State University) will present his public lecture\, “The Sound: Analog Vs Digital Audio and How Microphones Work for Broadcast Journalists.” This presentation will be held in the JD Boyd Library Auditorium. Reception to follow. \nSound is the most fundamental building block of music\, radio\, television\, and film and begins when something vibrates. Analog signal is an electrical copy of the original vibration incited into a microphone. Analog signal fluctuates like the original vibration\, and it is continuous and rarely skips any part of the signal. Digital signal is discontinuous and does not process the total original signal incited into microphone\, it skips from one point of the signal to the next\, selecting a great number of successive points that represents the original signal. The microphones transduce (transform) sound waves into electric energy – the audio signal/sound we hear on radio\, television\, movies\, and music\, paging in public place and a two-way communication via phone. To understand how microphones work broadcast journalist from the physical and engineering points of view\, we must understand the basics of sound transmission.

SUMMARY:“Light in the Piazza” Conversation
DESCRIPTION:At noon Nov. 3 in the Paris-Yates Chapel on the University of Mississippi campus\, Adam Guettel\, Blake McIver and Mary Donnelly Haskell will have a conversation about Elizabeth Spencer’s novella “The Light in the Piazza\,” which was made into a musical. \nIn celebration of Mississippi writer Elizabeth Spencer’s one hundredth birthday\, the University of Mississippi Department of Music is staging a November 2021 production of “The Light in the Piazza\,” a musical based on Spencer’s novella of the same name. In conjunction with this production\, the department is presenting Piazza composer\, lyricist\, and orchestrator Adam Guettel in a residency of public programing that explores Spencer\, her novella\, Guettel’s rationale for and process of creating a musical from Spencer’s work\, and the themes\, characters and concepts revealed in both pieces. \nGuettel is a composer steeped in the opera and musical theatre traditions of America. The grandson of Richard Rodgers (of Rodgers and Hammerstein) and son of writer/composer Mary Rodgers\, Guettel is well-versed in the history of American musical theatre forms. As a Tony Award-winning composer in his own right\, his work is helping move those forms forward. “The Light in the Piazza” was nominated for 11 Tony Awards and won six\, including two for Guettel for original score and orchestration.
