As part of their Developing Socially-Aware Quantitative Intuition (QI) project, the CUES Spanning Boundaries (SB) Team will host the second annual QI grand challenge event on data privacy this Spring. 

• This event will help participants explore important socially-aware QI skills, followed by a discussion with experts on how they use these skills in the real world.  
• As part of this event, the SB Team will collect data in order to understand whether they have been effective at helping attendees learn socially-aware QI skills.  These data collection and analyses processes have been reviewed and approved by the University of Arizona IRB.

This 2021 World Premiere event is the second of four premieres sponsored by CUES and the Fred Fox School of Music, as part of Matthew Mugmon's CUES Distinguished Fellowship project.

Composed by Edwin Guevara Gutiérrez, Ibero-American Landscapes draws on the music of multiple genres and regions from both Europe and the Americas, and it also encodes the world premiere performers’ names — all of whom come from different nations — in the musical material itself.

Curated by Matthew Mugmon, CUES Distinguished Fellow, this multi-panel workshop series will address a significant pedagogical challenge in higher education: the lack of undergraduate opportunities to engage with primary sources. Each of the six workshops will feature a different aspect of using primary sources and archival materials in undergraduate teaching and research, and introduce some of the many archives available at the University. Faculty, researchers and students of all disciplines are encouraged to attend and explore strategies for using physical and digital archives in their work.

As part of their Developing Socially-Aware Quantitative Intuition project, the CUES Spanning Boundaries Team hosted an online Herd COVID-19 Vaccination Challenge.  Asking "What if you got to choose who gets vaccinated?" this simulation explored the impact of various hypothetical COVID vaccine distribution plans.  A panel of Pima County leaders, policymakers, and faculty closed the event by discussing the real-world challenges of equitably distributing the COVID-19 vaccine.   

• The event aimed to sensitize students to the ethnic, racial, and income inequalities underlying empirical evidence, and the importance of accounting for these factors in making policy decisions.  
• All undergraduates, from all majors, were encouraged to participate.

This 2020 World Premiere event, the first of four premieres sponsored by CUES and the Fred Fox School of Music as part of Matthew Mugmon's CUES Distinguished Fellowship project, was composed specifically for the possibilities and limitations of videoconferencing software at a time of social distancing and isolation.

Composed by graduate student Tom Peterson, Quintetto Profano brings together music composition, performance, and scholarship to offer students and the public the opportunity to explore the meaning of art in a time of crisis.
