Master Calendar

The Holster Scholars Program (https://honors.uconn.edu/holster-scholars) is a selective enrichment opportunity available only to first-year Honors students. The program supports a select number of students who wish to complete independent research, design, or creative projects in the summer following their first year at UConn.First-year Honors students are invited to join us in Webex for an introduction to the program followed by a Q&A. The session will be led by Dr. Vin Moscardelli (mailto:vin.moscardelli@uconn.edu), Director of the Office of National Scholarships and Fellowships (https://onsf.uconn.edu) and Coordinator of the Holster Scholars Program.   LOCATION: https://uconnvtc.webex.com/meet/onsf (https://uconnvtc.webex.com/meet/onsf)   To learn more about the program and for information on future information sessions, visit us on the web at https://honors.uconn.edu/holster-scholars (https://honors.uconn.edu/holster-scholars).

The exhibiting artists are Marsha Borden, Helena Chastel, Kathryn Frund, Phoebe Godfrey, Hugh MacDonald, Bob Pavlik, Dan Potter, and R. Douglass Rice. Open Air 2025 is open daily and will remain on view through October 6, 2025. June 19, 2025 iis the last day to visit indoor art exhibitions. Exhibitions inside the AVS Gallery will resume on September 11, 2025

Dr. Patrick FerreeProfessor of Biology, Department of Natural SciencesPitzer College and Scripps College Claremont Host: Stacey HanlonChromosome-killing chromosomes: understanding the molecular basis of extreme genome conflict In this talk, Dr. Ferree will highlight work from thier group aimed to understand how a selfish B chromosome causes genome elimination and sex reversal in the jewel wasp, Nasonia vitripennis, in order to achieve super-Mendelian inheritance.About Dr. Ferree: Dr. Ferree earned a PhD in the Department of Molecular, Cellular, and Developmental Biology at UC Santa Cruz, working in the lab of William Sullivan. They studied the cell biology of Wolbachia in the germ line tissues of Drosophila melanogaster. As a postdoc in the laboratory of Daniel Barbash at Cornell, Ferree investigated the genetic basis of hybrid incompatibility between two fruit fly species. They found that a species-specific region of heterochromatin from D. melanogaster causes hybrid lethality when present in hybrids containing maternal cytoplasm from D. simulans. As a faculty member at the Claremont Colleges, Ferree studied several different systems, including lethal effects of circularized sex chromosomes, host-symbiont interactions underlying male killing caused by Spiroplasma bacteria in the fruit fly, and most recently, the molecular basis of genome elimination caused by a selfish B chromosome in the jewel wasp, Nasonia vitripennis.PublicationPSRs: Selfish chromosomes that manipulate reproductive development (https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S108495212400020X)

The Connecticut Moot Court Board invites you to join us for an evening of networking with appellate attorneys over food, followed by a panel discussion. Our panelists will share insights into appellate litigation, answer your questions, and discuss the ins and outs of their legal experiences. Food will be provided!

Attendance Requirement: Chapter presidents. CPH, IFC, IGC & NPHC council leadership are strongly encouraged to attend.
