SUMMARY:Miss Julie
DESCRIPTION:Miss Julie \nAugust Strindberg’s Miss Julie is a confrontation of class\, gender\, and desire at the turn of the twentieth century that’s as relevant today as when it was first written. \nMiss Julie wants to abandon her upper-class\, aristocratic life and escape the expectations that trap her. Jean\, her servant\, wants to climb the social ladder and rise through the ranks of society. Over the course of a wine-soaked evening\, the two jockey for position\, using sex\, status\, and strategy to collide and combust. \nSenior Artistic Producer Gabrielle Randle-Bent directs one of Strindberg’s most celebrated works\, interrogating the limitations of politics and position and the tension between who we are and who we want to be. \nAccessible Performances: \n\nTouch Tour: Saturday\, February 28 at 12:30pm\nAudio Description and ASL Interpretation: Saturday\, February 28 at 2:00pm\nOpen Captioning: Sunday\, March 1 at 2:00pm

SUMMARY:Listening to the Stars: Turning Constellations Into Music
DESCRIPTION:February 27\, 2026 | 7:00PM \nFulton Recital Hall\, Goodspeed Hall\, 4th floor \nIn this interdisciplinary session led by marimbist\, vibraphonist and composer\, Patricia Brennan\, we explore the intersection of astronomy and music theory through a new system that translates the constellations of the night sky into musical content. By superimposing constellations onto the circle of fifths\, we can assign musical notes\, intervals\, and rhythmic values to the geometry of the sky. This session invites participants to view the night sky as a living score. Participants will explore examples demonstrating how constellations like Aquarius or Andromeda can be “heard” through musical translation. No background in music theory or astronomy is required\, just curiosity and a love for the stars. \nFollowing the presentation in Fulton Recital Hall\, participants will be invited to grab some cocoa and cookies and head over to the Ryerson Observatory. \nThis event is best for families with children in grades 5-12. \nFree admission \nPresented in partnership by the University of Chicago Department of Music and the Ryerson Astronomical Society.

SUMMARY:Robert J. Sampson - "Marked by Time" - Stephen Raudenbush\, Reuben Jonathan Miller
DESCRIPTION:Robert J. Sampson – “Marked by Time” – Stephen Raudenbush\, Reuben Jonathan Miller \nRobert J. Sampson will discuss his new book Marked by Time. He will be joined in conversation by Stephen Raudenbush and Reuben Jonathan Miller. A Q&A and book signing will follow the discussion.  \nAt the Co-op \nRSVP HERE \nAbout the Book: A leading sociologist’s groundbreaking three-decade study challenges outdated views of crime and character\, revealing that traditional risk factors alone poorly predict children’s futures. \nBetween 1970 and 2020\, the United States experienced a dramatic rise in crime and incarceration\, followed by an unexpected decline. Along with plummeting violence came reductions in substance use\, car accidents\, child poverty\, and lead exposure. By 2020\, incarceration rates hit a twenty-five-year low\, with African Americans benefiting the most. Yet these positive shifts have not registered in public discourse or policies\, which continue to rely on outdated studies and reductive narratives of moral character and personal responsibility. \nA major reason for this oversight is how social scientists study youth development–typically through single-birth-cohort approaches that fail to capture generational change. In a pioneering three-decade study of over one thousand Chicago children across multiple cohorts\, Robert J. Sampson challenges this convention. He finds that children with similar self-control and family backgrounds\, born just a decade apart\, experienced dramatically different life paths. Strikingly\, children born in the mid-1980s faced twice the likelihood of arrest by their mid-twenties than those born ten years later. \nThis research reframes deeply ingrained assumptions about ongoing social decline and the importance of individual fortitude. Sampson spotlights the role of shifting social conditions and structural change in driving measurable improvements in youth trajectories\, along with new risks that threaten these gains. \nThe era into which a child is born shapes their future as profoundly as race\, upbringing\, or neighborhood. To rethink progress\, inequality\, and policy\, we must first acknowledge how time itself leaves a transformative mark on individual lives. \nAbout the Author: Robert J. Sampson is the Woodford L. and Ann A. Flowers University Professor at Harvard University\, Affiliated Research Professor at the American Bar Foundation\, and founding director of the Boston Area Research Initiative. Previously\, he taught at the University of Chicago. Professor Sampson is an elected member of the National Academy of Sciences and a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences\, the American Philosophical Society\, the American Society of Criminology\, the American Academy of Political and Social Science\, the John Simon Guggenheim Foundation\, and\, as Corresponding Fellow\, the British Academy.  Former President of the American Society of Criminology\, he received the Stockholm Prize in Criminology.\n\nAbout the Interlocuters: Stephen Raudenbush is the Lewis-Sebring Distinguished Service Professor in the Department of Sociology\, the College and the Harris School of Public Policy Studies.  He is a member of the National Academy of Sciences\, the American Academy of Arts and Sciences the recipient of the American Educational Research Association award for Distinguished Contributions to Educational Research. \nReuben Jonathan Miller is a sociologist\, criminologist and a social worker who teaches at the University of Chicago in the Crown Family School and in the Department of Race\, Diaspora and Indigeneity\, and a Research Professor at the American Bar Foundation. In 2022\, he was awarded a MacArthur Foundation Fellow. \n\nEvent Location:\n\n\n\nSeminary Co-op Bookstores \n5751 S.

SUMMARY:Miss Julie
DESCRIPTION:Miss Julie \nAugust Strindberg’s Miss Julie is a confrontation of class\, gender\, and desire at the turn of the twentieth century that’s as relevant today as when it was first written. \nMiss Julie wants to abandon her upper-class\, aristocratic life and escape the expectations that trap her. Jean\, her servant\, wants to climb the social ladder and rise through the ranks of society. Over the course of a wine-soaked evening\, the two jockey for position\, using sex\, status\, and strategy to collide and combust. \nSenior Artistic Producer Gabrielle Randle-Bent directs one of Strindberg’s most celebrated works\, interrogating the limitations of politics and position and the tension between who we are and who we want to be. \nAccessible Performances: \n\nTouch Tour: Saturday\, February 28 at 12:30pm\nAudio Description and ASL Interpretation: Saturday\, February 28 at 2:00pm\nOpen Captioning: Sunday\, March 1 at 2:00pm
