An eclectic group of six mid-pubescents vie for the spelling championship of a lifetime. While candidly disclosing hilarious and touching stories from their home lives, the tweens spell their way through a series of (potentially made-up) words, hoping never to hear the soul-crushing, pout-inducing, life un-affirming “ding” of the bell that signals a spelling mistake. Six spellers enter; one speller leaves a champion! At least the losers get a juice box.
The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee is presented through special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI). All authorized performance materials are also supplied by MTI. www.mtishows.com

Students in all 4 FR203 classes will be presenting the e-portfolio that they created all throughout the 2nd-year sequence. And you are invited! Students will be presenting one material that they created either in 201, 202, or 203, and that they are the proudest of (it could be an essay, a creative project, a weekly journal, a speaking video…). This event is an opportunity for students to showcase their progress as they are finishing the intermediate sequence. All faculty and students are invited to come celebrate this benchmark with us! If you speak French, even better, as students would practice conversational speaking skills with you. You are also welcome to come even if you don’t speak French and are curious about what e-portfolios are or how they could be used in a language classroom. If you have any questions, please reach out to Mathilde Bégu, 2nd-year French supervisor: mbegu@uoregon.edu.
Note: The first session will be at the Dream Lab from 9am to 11am. The second session will be at the Dream Lab from 12pm to 1pm. The third session will be at the Yamada Language Center (McKenzie 175) from 2pm to 3pm.
10:00 a.m.
Please join us Tuesday mornings for a free cup of coffee, pastries, and conversation with your history department community! We’re excited to continue this tradition for our history undergraduate and graduate students, faculty, and staff. We hope to see you there!
4:00 p.m.
Join the Department of History and John Leisure, University of Oregon, for a talk on “Public Housing in Postwar Japan, 1945-1960."
Tuesday, June 3rd 4:00 pm EMU Cedar & Spruce Rooms (231 & 232) Free and open to the public.
This talk examines how large-scale public apartment complexes reshaped the contours of everyday life in Japan after World War II. Emerging out of experimental projects in the late 1940s, public apartments—colloquially known as danchi—became visible markers of postwar rehousing and domestic reform. Spurred by government money with strings attached to design objectives, these concrete projects touched scores of cities throughout the archipelago. By 1960, danchi apartments already functioned as residential urban infrastructure operating in a biopolitical mode. Danchi housing projects promoted productivist publics, privatized domestic space, and rationalized communities in an effort to establish a new postwar paradigm: governance through dwelling.
