Phishing Has New Hooks

^{We feel our program, Phishing Has New Hooks, relates to society and culture because it examines how advancements in technology are changing the ways people communicate, build trust, and interact with information. With the broad adoption of generative AI, scammers now have access to powerful tools that can make phishing and scam messages more convincing, personalized, and difficult to recognize.Participants will explore real examples of phishing and scam emails that have affected members of the Winthrop University community while learning how to identify warning signs and make safer decisions when navigating their inboxes. The program also challenges common myths about online safety, such as the belief that phishing emails are always easy to spot, that scams only target careless or uninformed individuals, or that someone would never fall for a fraudulent message.}

Executive Masterclass: Real-World Lessons on Strategy, Structure, Culture, Capabilities,
and Execution Driving America's Top Firms

Business organizations have complex ecosystems that often remain obscured to the rest of society. Evensmall changes can have dramatic effects on employees, products, customers, and the economy. Learning how to navigate those challenges means that Winthrop students and alumni can participate in how that
change takes place. It also is a key part of the general appeal for this event; even if one never works in a corporate climate, the lessons taken from how complex internal cultures function can be used in many different contexts. This is not so much a business presentation as it is a discussion of how culture works and how leadership makes a meaningful difference on the individual, organizational, and societal level.

and cultural perspectives, and practical strategies that students can use to develop a more meaningful relationship with nature in their everyday lives. The presentation will examine the ways in which human beings have historically interacted with the natural world and how changes in society over hundreds of years have contributed to the way many people live today. The development of modern society, urbanization, technology, indoor lifestyles, and cultural expectations surrounding productivity have increasingly separated many people from regular interaction with nature. Students will be encouraged to consider how these changes have influenced not only where we spend our time but also our understanding of wellness, productivity, and what constitutes a fulfilling life.

Fall Etiquette Dinner

^{The dinner will consist of a  four-course catered meal and will feature an interactive presentation by Ms. Hannah Terpack on the interpersonal and professional etiquette of dining. This presentation will be ongoing throughout the dinner. Etiquette is considered a form of cultural expression informed by social norms, values, and  beliefs. As such, etiquette while dining may be seen as a distinct cultural experience. Yet, historically,  fine dining has been viewed as a largely upper-class activity. For this reason, dining etiquette is not  widely taught, understood, or practiced in daily society. This knowledge gap is especially prevalent  among younger generations, such as Gen Z. The purpose of this event is to expose Winthrop students to the art of dining etiquette and its customs and traditions, many of which are culture bound.}

^{In this 1.5 hour event, Ms. Lin Ko's lecture on Ikebana's history will begin from the 14th century onward, when many other traditional arts like the tea ceremony, garden design, Noh theater, and ink painting emerged.

Then, her live demonstrations of Sogetus Ikebana flower arrangement will illustrate line, space, asymmetry, balance, and the interpretation of nature.
