AASF Know Your Rights: Criminal Law, Research Security & Higher Education
Thursday, May 8, 2025
11:00 AM - 12:30 PM ET

Join the Asian American Scholar Forum (AASF) for an urgent Know Your Rights webinar focused on the intersection of criminal law, research security, and higher education—specifically addressing the mounting concerns facing Asian American professors and scientists who are facing increasing scrutiny and investigations, raising concerns about the return of the China Initiative and the environment of fear it cultivated. Moreover, international students, postgrads, and researchers are also facing increasing scrutiny with efforts to halt all Chinese student visas, preventing graduate students from conducting research, and targeting their participation in STEM fields. This session will empower scholars, faculty, students, and researchers with vital legal knowledge and we encourage you to register today.

Speaker Robert Fisher, an attorney and law partner, will break down your rights, what’s at stake, and how to navigate this evolving landscape. He will share his unique expertise that tackles how higher education, research, and normal academic activities have increasingly become criminalized and the ways in which the research community may be impacted as a result. This is a must-attend event for anyone impacted by or concerned about the growing scrutiny of scholars, scientists, and researchers in the United States.

Farley Distinguished Visiting Scholar in Global Asian Histories @ SFU (AY 2026-2027) Elizabeth Williams Wed, 04/23/2025 - 11:13

The Faculty of Arts & Social Sciences at Simon Fraser University invites applications for a Farley Distinguished Visiting Scholar in Global Asian Histories for 2026-2027 (with an initial due date of June 1, 2025).

If you are — or know — a scholar with a continuing appointment who thinks historically from any (inter)disciplinary location and is looking to build out a sabbatical, please check out the ad here. It’s also attached as a PDF.

The Farley Distinguished Visiting Scholar is dedicated to the teaching of history, broadly construed, which is understood to include studies of the past, including the recent past, carried out within the departments and programs of the Faculty of Arts & Social Sciences.

In 2026-2027, one of two Farley Scholars will be hosted by the Global Asia Program. We especially encourage applicants with an interest in teaching pedagogically-innovative Global Asia courses that complement our current course offerings, aimed at students from a range of disciplinary backgrounds.

In keeping with University policy, the successful candidate will hold a continuing academic position at another university, or an equivalent position at another appropriate institution. The Farley Distinguished Visiting Scholar is appointed as a Visiting Faculty Member for at least two terms in the academic year. (SFU operates year-round, with Fall, Spring, and Summer terms.) While at SFU, the Farley scholar will have the opportunity to interact extensively with faculty and students, and to stimulate discussion across disciplines. They normally teach one course and contribute to other types of relevant intellectual activity that will be open to students across the university. Farley Scholars are encouraged and supported in public outreach activities that may take a variety of forms. The stipend for the Farley Distinguished Visiting Scholar is up to CAD $55,000 (commensurate with the length of the visit) and the Scholar is provided with a CAD $7,500 budget for public engagement activities.

Under Shared Blue Skies: Mongolia and the North American West Conference

Under Shared Blue Skies: Mongolia and the North American West Conference Elizabeth Williams Wed, 04/09/2025 - 12:38

November 8-9, 2025 in Downtown Denver, Colorado

ACMS, in collaboration with Metropolitan State University of Denver and Ulaanbaatar-Denver Sister Cities Committee, are pleased to announce the following Call for Abstracts for the upcoming joint conference entitled Under Shared Blue Skies: Mongolia and the North American West, which is generously sponsored by the University of Colorado and Colorado State University. This conference is scheduled to take place in downtown Denver, Colorado - home to one of North America's oldest and most dynamic Mongolian communities - from November 8-9, 2025.

Since the early 1990s, the connections between Mongolia and the North American West have grown into vibrant, long-term bridges of knowledge and culture. A wide variety of research and creative scholarship connects Mongolia to the North American West, ranging from archaeology to zoology.

At the same time, much of this scholarship is produced by members of Mongolian communities in the North American West. This conference seeks to bring together scholars, practitioners, students, and community members in the North American West who have engaged in or are simply interested in scholarship related to Mongolia. This will be a two-day interdisciplinary event to share knowledge and experiences while also providing opportunities for interaction and development of new ideas for collaboration.

We welcome submissions for short paper (10 minutes) and poster presentations, and encourage submissions from researchers, practitioners, and/or students who engage with research and/or creative scholarship related to Mongolia. Scholars from any discipline or field are welcome to submit an abstract. This conference is not strictly limited to the academic community, and we encourage participation by artists, educators, and members of the non-profit sector.

Contact info@mongoliacenter.org or Sara Jackson Shumate, Ph.D. at sjacks62@msudenver.edu if you have any questions.
