What challenges do educator’s face? What restrictions are there preventing education from occurring? Are the requirements, expectations and limitations changing the way Educators function? What are the successes - giving students the opportunity to find their expressive voice?This exhibit will include the artwork and voices of a group of area educators from public, private and independent educational settings on all levels. The artist/educators will share their creative voices in various forms of expression as they also reflect on the challenges and celebrations they experience in and out of the classroom.Among the more than twenty artists are: Mary Jane Andreozzi, Deanna Camputaro, Ruth Clegg, Raff Diaz, Raphael Diaz, Tamara Diaz, Melanie Ducharme, Adam Ferbert, Susan Garland, Melissa Guillet, Catherine Davis-Hayes, Chris Kelley, Susan Kolenda, Jason Robert LaClair, Don Mays, Kerry Murphy, Sam Peck, Lisa Marie Ricci-Russo, Monique Rolle-Johnson, Jade Sisti, Janice Lee Strain, John Tedeschi, Katie Walck.On exhibit in URI Lippitt Hall (3rd & 4th floor), Green Hall and The Higgins Welcome CenterOpen To Monday – Friday 7:30-4:30, closed weekends and holidaysFor information: (401)286-4620/ spennell@uri.eduVisit URInvolved for complete event details.

- 5:00 PM1h 15mAI Lab Workshop: MPI in RustAbstract:The Rust programming language was created when Graydon Hoare was frustrated with the elevator in his apartment building being out of order due to a Windows blue screen of death. In the decade since its 1.0 release, Rust has been the "most loved" programming language on StackOverflow for a number of years, and has gained a reputation for high performance (comparable to C), high productivity (comparable to Go) and correctness (comparable to Haskell). I have been using Rust in my research group (Algorithms for Big Data) for the past 5 years, and also have been teaching my undergraduate machine organization course in Rust (previously it was in C) for about as long.In this interactive workshop, we will start with a brief introduction to Rust (just the basics) and then look at how to easily parallelize a computation across multiple cores using the excellent Rayon library. We will wrap up with multi-node distributed computation via an OpenMPI-compatible library. I'll make all code we write available on my website.Bio:Prof. Daniels is an associate professor of computer science, with the majority of his research focused on algorithms for "big data" -- essentially, sublinear-time algorithms for problems such as search or sequence alignment, trying to leverage the manifold structure of high-dimensional data. He did a postdoc in mathematics at MIT with Bonnie Berger and a Ph.D in computer science at Tufts University with Lenore Cowen, focused on problems in computational biology ranging from protein structure prediction to biological sequence analysis. More recently, he has also been interested in applying "manifold mapping" ideas to problems in astronomy, cybersecurity, and machine learning.It will be available by zoom here (note free registration): https://uri-edu.zoom.us/j/97633357732?pwd=rsZZMWaxvvEUlYahLgOp7qeDHp1D99.1#success (though we will have an in-person option as well)Background resources, for those who want to get a leg up, are primarily here: https://www.rust-lang.org/learn (there are three different resources there, which will appeal to different learning styles).The Rayon parallelization library is documented here: https://docs.rs/rayon/latest/rayon/The mpi library is documented here: https://docs.rs/mpi/latest/mpi/

- 5:30 PM1hFall Honors Colloquium: Education, Behind the CurtainsThe University of Rhode Island will hold its 62nd annual Honors Colloquium this fall, titled, “Education, Behind the Curtains.” Join us for the University’s premier lecture series on Tuesdays at 5:30 p.m. beginning in September and continuing through December.This year’s Honors Colloquium will provide a valuable opportunity for the URI community to engage in a thoughtful and informed dialogue on the challenges facing education today. The way we educate students is constantly evolving, but are we preparing them for the future or reinforcing outdated systems?“Education, Behind the Curtains” will explore how history, policy, and innovation shape learning from early childhood through higher education. From artificial intelligence-driven instruction to the growing need for equity-minded educators, this series will dive into the most urgent challenges in pre-K–20 education. Through critical conversations with experts and practitioners, we will examine how schools, colleges, and universities can better serve students and society in an ever-changing world.Visit uri.edu/hc to explore the full lineup of speakers, lecture topics, lecture descriptions, speaker biographies, and partnering events.Please join us for these free events throughout the fall in Edwards Hall or online, and take note of the new, earlier start time of 5:30 p.m. for the lectures.
