SUMMARY:Staying Human in the Age of AI: CSBS Open Discussion Series
DESCRIPTION:Spring 2026 Open Discussion Series: Staying Human in the Age of AI\nWhen and Where\nThursdays | 12:00–1:30 PM \n\nApril 2  (In Person)\nApril 16 (via Zoom link TBA)\nMay 7 (In Person)\n\nWhitsett Room | Sierra Hall\, Room 451 \nOverview\nThis spring\, the College of Social and Behavioral Sciences (CSBS) continues its college-wide exploration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Virtual Extended Reality (VXR) in education and social services. Supported by Dean Searcy and led by Dr. Ellie Kazemi (Department of Psychology)\, this series creates an open space for thoughtful\, critical conversation about how these technologies are shaping our classrooms\, disciplines\, and daily work. \nPurpose\nOur College is creating space for open dialogue about pressing concerns such as academic integrity\, erosion of learning\, bias\, labor\, sustainability\, and the preservation of academic values—alongside honest discussion about how AI is already influencing our professional and personal lives. Faculty and staff bring diverse perspectives\, from active integration to intentional limits. The goal is not consensus\, but shared understanding and meaningful exchange grounded in our shared academic values. \nWhy Consider Attending?\nNew tools\, headlines\, and workshops about AI seem to emerge daily. The rapid pace of change in the corporate world is spilling into higher education\, and many of us are being asked to respond quickly—sometimes without adequate space to think. \nThis gathering offers an opportunity to pause and reflect. To make sense of what’s happening alongside colleagues who may share your excitement\, your hesitation\, or both. Together\, we can support one another in navigating a fast-moving and uncertain moment\, and consider how to move forward in ways that align with our values and our students’ needs. \nJoin us as we examine possibilities\, address limitations\, and learn from one another’s approaches to teaching\, research\, and community work. \nRequesting Accommodations\nThe CSUN College of Social and Behavioral Sciences is committed to making its events accessible to everyone. If you require an accommodation or service to fully participate\, please let us know. Note: If you require an ASL interpreter\, please contact us no later than five working days prior to the event. To request accommodations\, please contact Jacqueline Edwards at 818-677-3317 or via email at ashley.rice@csun.edu.
