SUMMARY:Nuremberg Symposium\, Nuremburg: A 2026 Simulation
DESCRIPTION:Step inside history with the Churchill Archives Centre as they reflect on their Nuremberg Trial Simulation\, an innovative educational program designed to immerse participants in the challenges and dilemmas faced by prosecutors\, judges\, and defendants during the 1945 trials. \nIn this session\, panelists will explain the structure\, objectives\, and outcomes of the simulation\, highlighting how participants experienced firsthand the complex legal\, ethical\, and moral questions that defined Nuremberg. They will also discuss the broader purpose of such simulations: to deepen understanding of international law\, accountability\, and the enduring lessons of Nuremberg for contemporary justice. \nAttendees will gain insight into how historical trials can be recreated for educational purposes\, the challenges of role-playing judicial proceedings\, and the reflections of participants who engaged in this unique experience. This program offers both a behind-the-scenes look at the simulation and a discussion of its relevance to modern international justice and education. \nSpeakers– Allen Packwood\, Director of the Church Archives Centre– Dr. Sean Lang\, President of the Cambridge Branch of the HA and formerly Senior Lecturer in History at Anglia Ruskin University (ARU) \nAbout the Churchill Archives CentreThe Churchill Archives Centre\, part of the University of Cambridge\, preserves the papers of Sir Winston Churchill and other key figures in modern history. It provides researchers\, students\, and the public with access to primary historical materials and engages audiences through educational programs\, exhibitions\, and innovative initiatives such as the Nuremberg Trial Simulation.

SUMMARY:DownBeat Percussion
DESCRIPTION:Composed of world class percussionists who thrive on energy\, precision\, and performance\, DownBeat Percussion performs in front of more than 70\,000 people every home game during the NFL season. \nFounded by a group of guys who went to Jordan-Elbridge HS together\, DownBeat Percussion’s first performance with the Bills was during the 2013 Christmas halftime show. Since then\, the group has been the team’s official drumline\, performing at every home game. \nDuring games\, they play in the parking lot for all the tailgaters and those entering Highmark Stadium. Before Kick-Off\, DownBeat plays a three-minute pregame show on the field. During the game\, the group is stationed just to the side of the tunnel and plays throughout the game to hype the crowd after a good play! During holiday games\, like Christmas or Veteran’s Day\, the group plays during halftime. \nThe members of DownBeat Percussion are all active in the field of education and have spent a large portion of their lives spreading the art of percussion and all of the opportunities it has to offer. They are dedicated to helping students become the best musicians they can be.
