SUMMARY:CSUN Cinematheque: On Dangerous Ground—The Films of Ida Lupino
DESCRIPTION:The Spring 2026 Cinematheque presents a series of films by British-American actress\, director\, and producer Ida Lupino. \nLupino was crowned the “First Lady of Noir”—the first woman to direct in the noir genre and the only woman director of the Post-War era. She was a bona fide movie star—beautiful\, talented\, dazzling. Lupino wrote and directed films with subjects so taboo the Hollywood studios wouldn’t touch them\, considered “beyond the pale” by viewers who experienced them at their time of initial release.  Traverse the dark corridors of real life with this season’s Cinematheque noir series… \nON DANGEROUS GROUND\, The Films of Ida Lupino Behind the Camera.

A seasoned executive and educator\, his 30-year career spans local government\, higher education\, and the nonprofit sector.

Through Fraser Leadership Group (www.fraserleadership.com)\, he provides leadership consulting and executive workshops nationwide.​\n \nDescription:\n\n\nPART 2 of 2 – PLEASE REGISTER FOR BOTH SESSIONS \nWhy do technically skilled employees sometimes falter when promoted into leadership roles?

Participants will gain insight into how to better identify leadership readiness\, strengthen internal mentorship pipelines\, and realign promotion systems for long-term organizational success. Based on his forthcoming book\, Promoted into Incompetence\, Dr. Fraser’s engaging sessions blend scholarship\, humor\, and practical wisdom for leaders at every level. \n\n\n  \n\nRegister Here To Join \nIf you are interested in registering for this session or any future session of CSU’s Got Talent\, please use the “Register with Email” button on the landing page to register.

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.
