She has performed some of the most iconic classical ballet roles\, including Odette/Odile in “Swan Lake;” Juliet in “Romeo & Juliet;” “Giselle;” “Manon;” “Coppelia;” Kitri in “Don Quixote;” and “Firebird\,” to name a few. \nCopeland has been featured in several publications\, including the cover of Time Magazine for the Time 100\, as well as the covers of ESSENCE\, Self\, ELLE South Africa\, Oxygen and Women’s Health. She has also appeared on CBS’ “60 Minutes\,” “CBS Sunday Morning\,” ABC’s “Good Morning America\,” NBC’s “The Today Show” and “Little Big Shots\,” celebrating extraordinary young people. \nShe made her first awards season guest performances in 2019 with Taylor Swift at the American Music Awards and at the 2020 Grammy Awards alongside Camilla Cabella\, Common\, Ben Platt\, and dancers from the Debbie Allen Dance Academy\, as well as the televised Prince Grammy Tribute performing with award-winning recording artist H.E.R. Copeland made her Broadway debut in “On The Town” in 2015 and her major motion picture debut in Disney’s “The Nutcracker and the Four Realms” in 2018. She is also featured in an episode of “MasterClass\,” the online series. \nCopeland started her production company\, Life In Motion Productions\, focused on bringing representative stories of artists past\, present and future\, and normalizing the arts experience. Her first independently produced project\, “Flower\,” premiered at the Tribeca Festival in 2023 and is a silent arts activism film using dance to help raise awareness about intergenerational equity. \nCopeland is an avid philanthropist and is an ambassador of the Boys & Girls Clubs of America\, of which she is also an alum\, and MindLeaps\, an arts education program based in Rwanda that helps young people get off the streets and into an academic setting to help enhance their lives. \nIn 2022\, Copeland launched The Misty Copeland Foundation\, with its first signature program BE BOLD\, which aims to bring greater diversity\, equity and inclusion to dance\, especially ballet. In 2023\, she launched the women’s line of Greatness Wins\, an athletic wear business she co-founded with Derek Jeter and Chris Riccobono. \nCopeland is the New York Times bestselling author of “Life In Motion\,” “Ballerina Body\,” “Black Ballerinas\,” and a picture book titled “Bunheads.” She is also author of the award-winning children’s picture book\, “Firebird.” Copeland’s newest book\, “The Wind At My Back\,” in tribute to her late mentor and friend\, pioneering ballerina Raven Wilkinson\, was  published November 2022. \nIn 2021\, Copeland was the recipient of the Spingarn Medal\, the NAACP’s highest honor and in 2023\, she received the Trailblazer Icon Award at The Grio Awards\, was named for the second time to The Root 100\, and was awarded an honorary doctorate of fine arts from New York University. In 2024\, Copeland received the Innovator Award from the African American Film Critics Association.

SUMMARY:UBIT Student Input Session

I’m writing to invite you\, your leadership team\, and constituents to join us for a joint UBIT/Libraries virtual student input session on either Tuesday\, February 18th from 1-2 p.m. or Wednesday\, February 19th from 3-4 p.m.  \nTo register for a session\, please sign up by visiting our news article on the UBIT website. We will send a calendar invite with the Zoom link. \nSessions like these inspired some of the best technology offerings for students at UB\, including Ultrawide monitors for your laptop in Silverman\, Adobe Photoshop and other Creative Cloud software in public computing sites\, a major upgrade of campus Wi-Fi and more. \nWe greatly appreciate if you could please spread the word about the student input session to your board members and student constituents.  \nIf you have any questions\, or additional feedback you’d like to share\, please don’t hesitate to contact me directly. Your voice matters! \nThank you for helping make technology better for students at UB.

SUMMARY:GSEU Rally in Red
DESCRIPTION:GSEU Rally in Red!\n\n\nWednesday\, February 26th\, 2025 \n12 noon outside Capen\, UB North\, Flint Loop Side\n\nWEAR RED HATS/SCARVES/ACCESSORIES! We will have GSEU RED BEANIES for you if you don’t already have one!\n\n\nNew York State is negotiating with the Graduate Student Employees Union (GSEU) for our contract renewal. GSEU represents graduate workers who provide the bulk of teaching and research labor at SUNY. \nWe recently collected a petition signed by over 2\,000 people statewide\, including 331 signatures from Buffalo. Our fellow GSEU chapters (AKA GSEU at other SUNY campuses) are driving to Albany to deliver this petition to our NY politicians in person!! Since we aren’t driving to Albany\, it’s important we show our solidarity by having a large presence on UB’s campus! \n~~ \nDuring recent negotiations\, graduate workers asked for wages that allow these essential workers to survive\, especially with rising costs of living. When compared to peer institutions\, SUNY schools are near the bottom. \nIn response to the well-researched data we presented about our concerns\, New York State offered with a counter offering us a base stipend amount of $11\,000\, an increase of $1\,000 over the currently-unlivable base of $10\,000\, and a rate that is far below NYS minimum wage. \nRecent Bargaining News \n~~ \nWe know you’re sick and tired of not being paid enough. We know you’re sick and tired of working under a contract that’s been expired since July 2023 – over 500 days ago. We’ve been at the bargaining table for months\, but it’s time we make our voices louder so that New York State knows they need to give us a FAIR CONTRACT NOW. \nThat’s why we need you to join us on Wednesday Feb 26th at Noon outside Capen. We need to have a presence as graduate workers. We need to be seen. We need to be heard. We need to be united. Whether you are a graduate worker at UB\, a worker in another industry\, an undergraduate student whose classes are taught by graduate TAs\, or an ally in any way\, please join us at our rally. \nDivided we beg\, united we bargain.  \nIn solidarity\, \nUB GSEU
