The Colorado College Collaborative for Community Engagement recently concluded its Week of Action, where students, staff, and faculty participated in different community-based projects.<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
The Week of Action<\/a>, which took place Oct. 2-8, was a week of opportunities and events aimed to mobilize the CC community to engage in local, community-based work. The goal was to expose campus community members to shared issues, challenges, and organizations, so they will continue to work with the broader Colorado Springs community in the future.<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
The Week of Action events included a cleanup of Monument Creek as part of Creek Week, building walking and biking trails with Concrete Couch, and planting garlic at the CC Farm.<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
\u201cI loved that the week was centered on collaboration with local partners and helping them meet needs that already existed instead of coming up with a bunch of new programming. This felt like an effective and efficient way to support organizations throughout Colorado Springs and hopefully gave CC students a chance to engage in work in a variety of different issue areas, from food access to conservation of natural spaces,\u201d says Maddi Schink \u201923, the student director of community engaged scholars.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n\n

About 20 Colorado College students had the opportunity to have lunch with Oliver Hart<\/a>, Nobel Prize laureate, on Sept. 29.<\/div>\n

<\/span> <\/p>\n

In 2016, Hart, of Harvard University, was awarded the Sveriges Riksbank Prize in Economic Sciences in Memory of Alfred Nobel<\/a>. Hart has developed theories on contracts, including on the theory of incomplete contracts<\/a>.<\/div>\n

<\/span> <\/p>\n

\u201cThe Carey Lectureship brings Nobel laureates in economics to the college, an opportunity unique among liberal arts colleges, making it possible for both students and faculty, as well as for members of the Colorado Springs community, to learn at first-hand about fundamental issues of the day,\u201d says Timothy Fuller<\/a>, political science professor and former president of CC. \u201cProfessor Oliver Hart is the twentieth Carey lecturer in this distinguished series, speaking on \u2018corporate social responsibility\u2019 a topic in wide discussion today.\u201d<\/div>\n

<\/span> <\/p>\n

Fuller has been responsible for the Carey lectures for the past 20 years, and organized this one as well. Several political science<\/a>, economic and business<\/a>, and international political economy<\/a> majors were invited to the lunch.<\/div>\n

<\/span> <\/p>\n

\u201cWe were incredibly fortunate to have Nobel Laureate Oliver Hart visit our campus. His talk on corporate social responsibility had broad appeal. His visit came at exactly the right time for our community, as students and community members are increasingly confronting what it means for business to be socially responsible,\u201d says Christina Rader<\/a>, associate professor and chair of the Economics and Business Department.<\/div>\n

<\/span> <\/p>\n

Hart advised the students who attended the lunch to read \u201cOn Liberty,\u201d by John Stuart Mill, says Alnebeck.<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n\n

Don’t miss an evening with award-winning novelist and Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Ayad Akhtar on Oct. 27, 6:30 p.m. The event is part of \u201cForever Foreign: Asian America, Global Asia and the Problem of Anti-Asian Racism<\/a>,\u201d and will be held in Cornerstone Screening Room.<\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/h1>\n
In his work, Akhtar deftly weaves politics, family, friendship, capitalism, and the eternal existential crisis of being \u201cAmerican\u201d into confessional observations that are emotionally moving. Akhtar is the author of \u201cAmerican Dervish,\u201d published in more than 20 languages and named a Kirkus Reviews <\/em>Best Book of 2012, as well as the novel \u201cHomeland Elegies,\u201d published in September 2020. As a playwright, Akhtar has written \u201cJunk\u201d (2016), \u201cThe Who & The What\u201d (2014), \u201cThe Invisible Hand\u201d (2015), and \u201cDisgraced\u201d (2012), a sobering take on race, class, and religion in the United States, which won a Pulitzer Prize for drama. As a screenwriter, he was nominated for an Independent Spirit Award for best screenplay for \u201cThe War Within,\u201d which he also starred in. Akhtar is the recipient of the Steinberg Playwriting Award, the Nestroy Award, and the Erwin Piscator Award, as well as fellowships from the American Academy in Rome, MacDowell, the Sundance Institute, and Yaddo, where he serves as a board director.<\/div>\n
Akhtar\u2019s lecture<\/a> will also be available on Zoom. Please register in advance here<\/a>.<\/span> <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n\n

Cyber Security Month Tip of the Week: MFA Bombing<\/strong><\/h1>\n

<\/span>
<\/h1>\n
Now that our accounts are protected by multifactor authentication (MFA), it is much more difficult for an attacker to gain access to our accounts because they need more than just our passwords. However, they are starting to get around this problem by MFA Bombing.<\/div>\n

<\/span><\/h1>\n
The attacker will repeatedly send \u201cpush mobile app\u201d notifications to get you to finally relent and accept the Duo push. The point of this attack method is to irritate the user and wear them down until they finally tap accept to get the prompts to stop or because they think they\u2019re doing something wrong and are supposed to accept after all.<\/div>\n

<\/span><\/h1>\n
They also employ similar tactics in other ways:<\/div>\n
