SUMMARY:MLK Convocation Keynote: Tuning in to Our Communities: Improving Our Collective Sensibilities of Humility\, Care and Relationality
DESCRIPTION:Tuning in to Our Communities: Improving Our Collective Sensibilities of Humility\, Care and Relationality with Bindu Panikkar\, PhD\, Associate Professor\, Rubenstein School of Environment & Natural Resources\, University of Vermont \nHow do we strengthen our relational capabilities centered in care\, humility\, and collective wellbeing? The word humility comes from the Latin root—humus\, earth\, soil\, ground. Humility means being grounded\, being of the earth\, it means an awareness of our place within a larger world. Practicing humility requires recognizing our limitations\, acknowledging our interdependence\, and valuing the contributions and knowledge of others. It is also the willingness to be changed through relational encounters. Humility in relations grounds us\, allowing care\, attentiveness and reciprocity to circulate\, and serves as a powerful antidote to domination\, extraction\, and hierarchy. \nIn this talk\, Dr. Panikkar makes the case that tuning in to our communities requires understanding what divides us and what erodes our collective capabilities of care\, relationality\, and humility. To guard against the theft of relationality\, we must adopt attunement of care\, listening\, repair\, reciprocity\, and attentiveness as practice to rebuild our relational capacities necessary for collective wellbeing in a fractured world.

SUMMARY:Reflections on the Migrant Journey
DESCRIPTION:This panel will feature students who participated in a winter travel course to the Mexico–Arizona border. They will share reflections on their experiences and what they learned. The migrant journey is deeply personal and diverse\, yet many stories reveal common threads across communities. Through their insights\, students will connect these experiences to broader themes of social inequity\, diverse identities\, and Catholic social teaching.
