- 3:00 PM1hSudan: Pulse Panel DiscussionFaculty who will lead a question-and-answer session and discuss the history, politics and ongoing displacement crisis in Sudan include Todd Cleveland, Distinguished Professor of African History (Arkansas), Joel Gordon, professor of history and Middle East studies (Arkansas), and Mai Hassan, associate professor of political science (MIT). "This Pulse session on Sudan is extremely important given how little most of our students—and the general public—know about Africa. Unfortunately, on one hand, having an extended discussion about a crisis on the continent has the potential to reinforce notions of Africa as a place of endemic conflict and disease. Yet, on the other hand, the impetus for organizing the event was not only to raise awareness about developments in Sudan, but also because this type of civil conflict on the continent is somewhat exceptional in contemporary Africa rather than commonplace, as it was in the continent's recent past." - Prof. Todd ClevelandPlease register for this event using the link provided:https:/uark.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZMtfuyrrDguHNzh8en3KGPEpRQmW-Bgqz0X (http://)This is an Honors Event.

- 3:00 PM3h 30mUConn Sexpert Drop-In HoursUConn Sexpert Peer Support Drop-In Hours are a new, free service offered by peer health educators, the UConn Sexperts, on the UConn Storrs campus! Peer Support Drop-In Hours are a great option for students who have questions about sex and sexual health, are looking for a non-judgmental, laid-back environment to discuss a sex related concern or issue, or are interested in improving their sexual health and personal well-being. Our UConn Sexperts are trained to provide education, support, and connection to resources on and off-campus on a wide variety of topics pertaining to sex, sexual health, and relationships. Mondays: 11:00am-4:00pm Tuesdays: 3:00pm-6:30pm Wednesdays: 10:30am-6:30pm Thursdays: 3:30pm-6:30pm Fridays: 10:30am-5:00pm UConn Sexperts (and supervising staff) are designated confidential employees under UConn's Title IX Reporting Obligations. Peer support sessions are for educational and support purposes only. Peer support visits are not on-call or emergency services, and are not for individualized medical advice, nor are they counseling or therapy.

- 3:30 PM1hAnalysis and Probability Seminar - Ian Fleschler (Princeton University) - Higher Multiplicity Allard Boundary RegularityIn the context of area-minimizing currents, Allard Boundary Regularity asserts that an oriented surface with boundary that minimizes area cannot have boundary singularities of minimum density. Indeed, in a neighborhood of a point of minimum density, the surface must coincide with a classical smooth minimal surface that attaches smoothly to the boundary. In this talk, I will report on a series of results on extending Allard Boundary Regularity to a higher boundary multiplicity setting, still within the context of area-minimizing currents. Part of this work is in collaboration with Reinaldo Resende.

This session is held by Maritza Lugo-Stalker, (https://studenthealth.uconn.edu/person/maritza-lugo-stalker/) For many concerns that students face – like overwhelming stress, anxiety, difficult relationships, depression, academic difficulties, and more – group therapy is the best option for support and healing. Facilitated by Student Health and Wellness (SHaW) counselors, our therapy groups encourage peer support, promote emotional wellbeing, and increase a felt sense of connection. Participants often find that they feel less alone in their struggles, and walk away with newfound support and ideas for coping.
