He played college football at the University of Pittsburgh and was selected by the Bills in the sixth round of the 2021 NFL Draft. Hamlin spent most of his rookie season as a backup before becoming a starter in 2022 following a season-ending injury to Micah Hyde. \nHamlin\, a true champion both on and off the field\, has left an indelible mark through his remarkable journey of resilience and philanthropy. In 2023\, Hamlin launched the CPR Tour\, a groundbreaking initiative through the Chasing M’s Foundation. This tour has equipped over 1\,200 individuals with life-saving skills\, provided 170 AEDs to communities in need\, and catalyzed legislative change in 12 states. \nNotably\, Hamlin established the Heroes Scholarship in Cincinnati\, honoring the medical workers pivotal to his recovery. This scholarship not only pays tribute to their dedication but also supports the next generation of healthcare heroes. \nHamlin and the foundation extend their impact through various initiatives\, including football clinics\, back-to-school drives\, the annual toy drive\, Thanksgiving drives\, and health and wellness programs. These efforts reflect Hamlin’s commitment to fostering positive change in communities. \nIn 2024\, Hamlin and the foundation plan to expand the CPR Tour to five U.S. cities and internationally to Europe\, Asia and Africa. This visionary step underscores Hamlin’s global perspective and the foundation’s commitment to making a difference on a broader scale\, bringing life-saving skills to communities around the world. \nAccolades such as the 2023 PFWA Halas Award\, Comeback Player of the Year\, the 2023 Alan Page Community Award and the 2023 Ed Block Courage Award underscore Hamlin’s impact. Since January 2\, 2023\, he has become a dedicated advocate for increasing awareness of CPR training and AED access. \nHamlin is driven by a profound purpose\, channeling his experience into programs that encourage young people to pursue their dreams. In every sense\, Hamlin is not just an athlete but a champion who inspires and uplifts those around him.

SUMMARY:Distinguished Speaker Series presents Jon Meacham
DESCRIPTION:Jon Meacham\n\n\nPresidential Historian | Pulitzer Prize-Winning Author \n\n\n\n\nFree tickets available for graduate students starting Monday\, September 16th through the UB Ticket Office.  1 per UB ID.\n\nPublic Ticket Information\n  \nWed.\, Oct. 16\, 2024 at 7:00 p.m.\nCenter for the Arts\nUB North Campus \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMore About Jon Meacham\n\n\nPresidential historian and Pulitzer Prize-winning author Jon Meacham is one of America’s most prominent public intellectuals. A contributor to TIME\, Meacham is a highly sought-after commentator\, regularly appearing on MSNBC\, CNN and other news outlets. A skilled orator with a depth of knowledge about politics\, religion and current affairs\, Meacham has the unique ability to bring history to life and offer historical context to current events and issues impacting our daily lives—whether we realize it or not—to audiences of all backgrounds and levels of understanding. \nHe served as Newsweek’s managing editor from 1998 to 2006 and as editor from 2006 to 2010. \nMeacham released two podcasts with the History Channel: “Hope Through History” and “It Was Said.” Narrated and written by Meacham\, season two of the critically acclaimed “Hope Through History” podcast explores some of the most historic and trying times in American History\, how the nation dealt with the impact of these moments\, and how we came through these moments a more unified nation. “It Was Said\,” tells the stories of those crucial words\, taking listeners back to inflection points ranging from the McCarthy era to our present time through the real-time rhetoric that shaped and suffused America as the country struggled through storm and strife. “It Was Said” captures the nation we’ve been\, and points ahead to the nation we hope to become. \nMeacham is the author of multiple New York Times bestsellers including\, “Songs of America\,” which is a celebration of the music that helped shape a nation. Co-written by musician Tim McGraw\, “Songs of America” was praised as “a glorious celebration of our diversity” by Quincy Jones and an “unusually well-written and moving story” by Ken Burns. Another #1 New York Times bestseller\, “The Soul of America: The Battle for Our Better Angels\,”examines the present moment in American politics and life by looking back at critical times in U.S. history when hope overcame division and fear. He released “His Truth Is Marching On: John Lewis and the Power of Hope”—an intimate and revealing portrait of civil rights icon and longtime U.S. congressman John Lewis that quickly gained bestseller status. \nMeacham’s presidential biography of George H. W. Bush\, “Destiny and Power: The American Odyssey of George Herbert Walker Bush\,” debuted at #1 on the New York Times bestsellers list. According to the Times\, “‘Destiny and Power’ reflects the qualities of both subject and biographer: judicious\, balanced\, deliberative\, with a deep appreciation of history and the personalities who shape it.” He is a co-author of “Impeachment: An American History\,” which reveals the complicated motives behind the three impeachments in U.S. history. A #1 New York Times bestseller\, “Thomas Jefferson: The Art of Power” was hailed as “masterful and intimate” by Fortune magazine. Meacham’s other national bestsellers include “Franklin and Winston\,” “American Gospel\,” and “American Lion: Andrew Jackson in the White House\,” which won a Pulitzer Prize. \nMeacham is a frequent guest on “Morning Joe;” “Real Time with Bill Maher;” “The 11th Hour\,” and was featured in Ken Burns’ documentary series “The Roosevelts: An Intimate History.” FOX News produced an hour-long special about Meacham’s “Destiny and Power.” \nNamed a “Global Leader for Tomorrow” by the World Economic Forum\, he is a member of the Council on Foreign Relations and a fellow of the Society of American Historians. Meacham is a distinguished visiting professor at Vanderbilt University where he holds the Rogers Chair in the American Presidency. His latest New York Times bestseller\, “And There Was Light: Abraham Lincoln and the American Struggle\,” was published in October 2022.

SUMMARY:Distinguished Speaker Series presents Heather McGhee
DESCRIPTION:Heather McGhee\n\n\nNew York Times Bestselling Author of  “The Sum of Us” \n\n\nANNUAL MARTIN LUTHER KING\, JR. COMMEMORATION EVENT \n\n\nFree tickets available for graduate students starting February 14th through the UB Ticket Office.  1 per UB ID.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPublic Ticket Information\n\n\n\nWed.\, Feb. 28\, 2024 at 7:00 p.m.\nCenter for the Arts\nUB North Campus\n\n\n\n\n\nMore About Heather McGhee\n\n\nWhat if\, in the middle of your live TV appearance\, someone asked for advice on overcoming racial prejudice? For Heather McGhee\, the response was natural: she helped. The viral exchange\, now viewed over 10 million times\, also inspired her to kick off a cross-country journey throughout America\, where she explored what we lose when we buy into the “zero-sum” paradigm—the idea that progress for some\, comes at the expense of others. Her deeply personal experiences come together in “The Sum of Us: What Racism Costs Everyone and How We Can Prosper Together.” An analysis of how we arrived at this divided nation\, “The Sum of Us” illuminates how racism is at the root of some of our most vexing public problems\, from collapsing infrastructure to rising student debt. But at the heart of the book are humble stories of people yearning to be a part of a better America\, including white supremacy’s collateral victims: white people themselves. Hailed as “illuminating and hopeful\,” the critically acclaimed book spent ten weeks on The New York Times bestseller list and was longlisted for the National Book Award and the Carnegie Medal for Excellence in Nonfiction. McGhee adapted the book into a Spotify podcast series\, produced by Michelle and Barack Obama’s production company. \nTo date\, “The Sum of Us” has been endorsed by the likes of Ibram X. Kendi\, #1 New York Times bestselling author of “How to Be an Antiracist\,” New York Times bestselling author Elizabeth Gilbert\, and Black Lives Matter co-founder Alicia Garza\, who calls it a “must read.” It has also been dubbed “The book that should change how progressives talk about race” (New York Times) and “Required reading to move the country forward…” (Chicago Tribune). “The Sum of Us” was named one of the Washington Post and TIME’s Must-Read Books of 2021\, and the Best Business Book of the Year by Porchlight. \n“The Sum of Us: Adapted for Young Readers\,” based on her New York Times bestseller\, brings McGhee’s crucial message of solidarity to a new generation of leaders\, thinkers and activists. In a starred review\, Booklist said\, “After challenging readers to rethink their understanding of race\, she concludes with strategies on how communities can prosper together.” Kirkus called it “of great value to anyone who values straight-to-the-point\, thorough writing on race in America” in a starred review. \nFor nearly two decades\, McGhee helped build the non-partisan “think and do” tank Demos\, serving four years as president. Under her leadership\, Demos moved their original idea for “debt-free college” into the center of the 2016 presidential debate\, argued before the Supreme Court to protect voting rights in January 2018\, and provided expert testimony to congressional committees\, including a Supreme Court confirmation hearing. As an executive\, McGhee led Demos’ own racial equity organizational transformation\, resulting in a doubling of the organization’s racial diversity and growth across all measures of organizational impact. In 2018\, Starbucks founder Howard Schultz also asked McGhee to advise the company as it designed an anti-bias training for 250\,000 employees in the wake of the unjust arrest of two Black men in a Philadelphia store. McGhee wrote a report with recommendations for how Starbucks could apply a racial equity lens to their businesses\, and how other companies both large and small can benefit from doing the same.

Thompson currently serves as CEO of The Atlantic\, leading the team to National Magazine Award wins for unprecedented coverage of the COVID-19 pandemic\, new perspectives on 9/11\, the rise of global autocratic power\, the case to return the national parks to Native American tribes and the hypocrisy behind high-class education in America. His years of experience covering tech makes him a leading analytical voice in the field\, where he uncovers how each new development in the world of tech will impact us all. \nHow will the world’s dominant tech corporations—Apple\, Google\, Facebook\, Amazon\, Microsoft—interact with citizens\, help write policy and redefine privacy and security? How will artificial intelligence and robotics change our devices\, the way we work\, earn a living\, fight wars\, solve problems—our very selves? No matter the subject—design\, culture\, media\, tech\, ethics or our digital future—he’s more than ready to break the news with big ideas and fearless takes. \nAs the editor-in-chief of WIRED\, Thompson broke massive stories about Facebook’s hidden flaws\, cyber-warfare\, the Robert Mueller investigation and numerous other topics. His groundbreaking investigative reporting on Facebook was a finalist for a 2020 Loeb Award\, and he oversaw work that won the Pulitzer Prize\, the National Magazine Award and has even led to Oscar-winning films. \nAt The New Yorker\, Thompson served as editor of the magazine’s digital platforms\, breaking new ground with stories about his friendship with Joseph Stalin’s daughter\, how our lives are forever changed by the consumer drone industry\, and arson amid the election cycle. His work at The New Yorker is defined by his fearless leadership and unwavering commitment to quality stories: The main strategy for growing audience is to publish more\, better stories. The stories we’re prouder of\, the stories we put more effort into\, attract more readers. \nHe’s also the author of the critically acclaimed biography “The Hawk and the Dove: Paul Nitze\, George Kennan\, and the History of the Cold War”—a fascinating double biography that follows two rivals and friends from the beginning of the Cold War to its end. The New York Times said that the book was “brimming with fascinating revelations about the men and the harrowing events they steered through.” \nThompson is a former senior editor at Legal Affairs and a former contributor at CBS. With a massive and vigilant following on social media\, he’s one of LinkedIn’s most-followed individuals. He earned the 21st Century Leader Award from The National Committee on American Foreign Policy\, was a Future Tense Fellow at the New America Foundation and is a member of the Council on Foreign Relations. \nThompson is also an accomplished runner and is currently the American record holder for men over age 45 in the 50k. He is also ranked in the top ten marathoners in the world for his age group. He can show you how the lessons he’s learned from running are also applicable to business\, and every other field. The discipline and grit put into this solo sport is undeniably influential on productivity\, creativity and purpose. To Thompson\, running is not a matter of physical talent\, but a matter of mental strength. \n\n\n\n\nNita Farahany\n\n\nAuthor of “The Battle for Your Brain” | Legal Scholar & Ethicist | Director of The Duke Initiative for Science & Society \n\n\nYou’re driving home after a long day\, desperate to stay awake.

This kind of revolutionary device is already in action\, and they’re only getting more sophisticated. Nita Farahany is at the forefront of the technology and ethics of wearable AI devices that use our biological and neurological data. An internationally acclaimed thought leader who bridges law\, ethics and technology to champion ethical progress in science and technology\, she says these “mind-reading” neuroscience and AI technologies will revolutionize everything. The same zap that can save a drowsy driver can also be used in the workplace to increase safety measures or tell businesses whether their customers really love what they’re looking at. \nFarahany leads audiences on an optimistic\, but cautionary\, tour through the future of AI programs\, like ChatGPT\, and neurotechnology. She goes over the necessary regulations and shifts that need to be implemented with this rapidly developing technology\, including how employers must build employee trust when adopting new technologies in the workplace. If we want to make the most out of AI and neurotech\, transparency is vital. \nFarahany’s talks break down AI and neurotech to diverse academic\, legal\, corporate and public sector audiences. Her impactful insights have reverberated on stages from TED and the World Economic Forum to the Aspen Ideas Festival and beyond. She consistently shapes public discourse and policy on neuroscience\, artificial intelligence and societal impacts through her rigorous scholarship\, and influential public engagements with academics\, policymakers and corporations. \nPresident Obama appointed Farahany to the Presidential Commission for the Study of Bioethical Issues\, where she served for seven years. She currently serves on the National Advisory Council for the National Institute for Neurological Disease and Stroke\, as an elected member of the American Law Institute and on the Global Future Council on Frontier Risks for the World Economic Forum\, among others. Farahany is a co-editor-in-chief of the Journal of Law and the Biosciences and is on the board of advisors for Scientific American. As an ethics consultant\, her expertise is sought by corporations and governments worldwide. Her contributions have been recognized through election to prestigious bodies including the American Law Institute\, the Uniform Laws Commission and the AAAS. \nFarahany is the Robinson O. Everett Distinguished Professor of Law & Philosophy and founding director of the Duke Initiative for Science & Society. She is a widely published scholar on the ethics of emerging technologies\, including the book “The Battle for Your Brain: Defending Your Right to Think Freely in the Age of Neurotechnology.” She spearheads research on futurism\, law and ethical implications of emerging technologies for society—offering a roadmap for cognitive freedom in our increasingly interconnected world.

SUMMARY:Distinguished Speaker Series presents Amy Schneider
DESCRIPTION:Amy Schneider\n\n\nHistory-Making “Jeopardy!” Champion | Author \n\n\nFree tickets available for graduate students starting October 5th through the UB Ticket Office.  1 per UB ID.  Any remaining graduate student tickets will be available at the door\, first come\, first served.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPublic Ticket Information\n\n\n\n\n\nThurs.\, Oct. 19\, 2023 at 7:00 p.m.\nCenter for the Arts\nUB North Campus \n\nMore About Amy Schneider\n\n\nAmy Schneider is an American software engineer and recent “Jeopardy!” champion. Following an impressive 40-game winning streak\, she became the most successful woman ever to compete on “Jeopardy!” She is second all-time in the show’s history\, trailing only Ken Jennings\, and the 11th highest-earning contestant of all time across all American game shows. Schneider is also the first openly transgender contestant to qualify for the Tournament of Champions. \nSchneider’s upcoming book\, “In the Form of a Question\,” serves as an inspirational memoir and an exploration of what it means to ask questions of the world and of yourself. \nHaving been raised in a Catholic family\, Schneider suppressed her gender identity well into adulthood. She has since stressed the importance of trans representation and shifting the focus from their suffering to their accomplishments. Since her transition in 2017\, she has made a point to say yes to new experiences\, from trying stand-up comedy to piercing her nose. \nThe Ohio native earned a spot in the show’s Hall of Fame and won the Tournament of Champions after competing against some of her all-time favorite contestants.
