SUMMARY:2026 Right Livelihood International Conference
DESCRIPTION:The Right Livelihood International Conference is a five-week global conference exploring how education can strengthen democracy\, collective intelligence\, and just futures. Bringing together Right Livelihood Laureates\, students\, faculty\, and community partners across continents\, the conference combines asynchronous learning with participatory dialogue and collaborative action. Rather than advocating specific outcomes\, the conference positions education as a democratic practice and the Right Livelihood College as a steward of dialogue\, student voice\, and long-term institutional learning. \nRegistration is free and open to the public. Sign up to receive conference updates\, session links\, and participation opportunities.

SUMMARY:FINS: Fisheries Insights Narratives and Stories seminar series featuring Dr. George Leonard
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for the second talk in the FINS: Fisheries Insights Narratives and Stories seminar series featuring Adjunct Professor Dr. George Leonard. His talk\, “Lessons learned from my time at the science-policy interface” will discuss his 35 years of experience researching\, communicating\, and advocating for a vibrant and healthy ocean upon which all of us depend. He has been at the forefront of ocean science-policy interface at major nonprofits (Monterey Bay Aquarium and Ocean Conservancy)\, working on practical ocean solutions to some of the ocean’s greatest environmental challenges. He initiated\, developed\, and led a host of conservation programs during his time at Ocean Conservancy including offshore aquaculture\, plastics pollution\, ocean acidification\, climate change\, mesopelagic fisheries\, and deep-sea mining. During his early career at Monterey Bay Aquarium\, he developed the scientific foundation for the nascent sustainable seafood movement \nFINS: Fisheries Insights Narratives and Stories Seminar Series \nDr. George Leonard\, Adjunct Professor\, Coastal Science and Policy UCSC \nTitle: Lessons learned from my time at the science-policy interface \nWhen: Wednesday\, April 15th from 10:30am-12pm \nWhere: Ocean Health Building Rm 118\, 115 McAllister Way\, Santa Cruz\, CA 95060 and on Zoom \nAgenda: \n\n10:30 am – 11:00 am – Professional Networking Session (in person only – light snacks and refreshments provided)\n11 am to 12 pm – presentation followed by Q & A\n12 pm – 1pm – student lunch with the speaker in OHB courtyard → sign up here\n\nZoom Meeting Registration: https://ucsc.zoom.us/meeting/register/NwH0_qUbSeuIm3A76DY-Dg \n

SUMMARY:CSE Colloquium - Algorithmic Problems in Discrete Choice by Ravi Kumar
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Ravi Kumar\, Google \nAbstract:\nIn discrete choice\, a user selects one option from a finite set of available alternatives\, a process that is crucial for recommendation systems applications in e-commerce\, social media\, search engines\, etc.  A popular way to model discrete choice is through Random Utility Models (RUMs).  RUMs assume that users assign values to options and choose the one with the highest value from among the available alternatives.  RUMs have become increasingly important in the Web era; they offer an elegant mathematical framework for researchers to model user choices and predict user behavior based on (possibly limited)  observations.   While RUMs have been extensively studied in behavioral economics and social sciences\, many basic algorithmic tasks remain poorly understood.  In this talk\, we will discuss various algorithmic and learning questions concerning RUMs. \nBio: \nRavi Kumar has been a research scientist at Google since 2012. Prior to this\, he was at the IBM Almaden Research Center and at Yahoo! Research. His interests include algorithms for massive data\, ML/privacy\, and the theory of computation. He maintains an extensive publication record that includes Test-of-Time Awards from STOC and WWW\, as well as Best Paper Awards from KDD and WWW\, to mention a few. He is an ACM fellow.\n\nHosted by: Professor Sungjin Im \n\nDate and Time: Wednesday\, April 15\, 2026 from 11:00 am – 12: 15 pm \nLocation: Engineering 2\, Room E2-180 (Refreshments such as fruit\, pastries\, coffee\, and tea will be provided.) \n\nZoom Option: https://ucsc.zoom.us/j/93445911992?pwd=YkJ2TQtF79h0PcNXbEcpZLbpK0coiY.1&jst=3 \n\n
