SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Paperweights & Studio Glass
DESCRIPTION:The American studio glass movement started in 1962 with glass workshops held at the Toledo Museum of Art. The workshops\, taught by Harvey Littleton along with scientist Dominick Labino\, introduced a small furnace built for working glass that made it possible for artists to work in independent studios. The studio glass movement quickly spread north to Michigan\, and in 1982\, a decision was made that studio glass would be the focus of the University of Michigan-Dearborn permanent art collection\, which is housed at the Alfred Berkowitz Gallery. This exhibition is a portion of that collection\, spotlighting studio glass art by major artists working in the medium\, including Dominick Labino\, Marvin Lipofsky and Richard Ritter.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Pierced Porcelain
DESCRIPTION:In this current body of work\, Kate Tremel is interested in taking a fresh look at traditional pottery forms within a functional context. She has returned to a technique that she learned years ago as an exchange student in Peru - thinning and shaping porcelain using a wooden paddle and river stone. Tremel finds the challenge of piercing the thin walls of the clay at their most fragile state to be an exercise in understanding the fleeting tenuousness of beauty itself. Among other things\, Tremel is a lecturer at the U-M Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Stitched Impressions: Art Quilts
DESCRIPTION:Textile artist Carole Harris is a Detroit native. Her mother introduced her to needle arts at an early age. After receiving a BFA in art and interior design from Wayne State\, she began to explore fibers as an art form. Many of her art quilts have architectural themes but she is most fascinated by the interplay of hue and pattern\, often drawing inspiration from the color\, energy\, movement\, and rhythms of ethnographic rituals as well as jazz\, blues and gospel music. Harris’ goal is to make her quilts dance with the same excitement\, exuberance and joy that music gives her. Her work has been exhibited in museums and galleries nationally and internationally\, and she is much in demand as a lecturer and juror.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents The Art of Storytelling: Fabric Appliqué
DESCRIPTION:Chris Roberts-Antieau’s work is about the mysterious origin of joy and the wonder of childhood. To create her witty fabric paintings\, she first hunts for her palette of fabrics: linens\, flannels\, cottons\, calicos\, even velvet. Then she cuts her designs freehand\, using the sewing machine as a drawing tool to define the borders of her figures with a beautiful\, almost invisible satin-stitch. Roberts-Antieau then finishes her pieces with hand embroidery work\, and frames the finished art behind glass in hand-painted frames. On exhibit in permanent collections across the country\, the joy in Roberts-Antieau’s award winning work is contagious.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Sibande On Campus: Exhibit: The wait seems to go on forever (mural\, 2008)

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Chinese Now : Contemporary Portraits 
DESCRIPTION:The Confucius Institute and Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design at the University of Michigan host an art exhibition \"Chinese Now: Contemporary Portraits\" presented by 31 faculty members from the School of Arts\, Renmin University of China. Professor TANG Keyang (Associate Professor\, School of Arts\, \nRenmin University of China) succinctly explains what this exhibition tries to accomplish. \"In this exhibition\, the people of China are brought to life in the vision of the artists. Freed from the limitations of a single concept\, style\, image\, or form\, the only thing the Chinese people represented here have in common is a disregard for the stereotypes long associated with them. The concern of this exhibition is in establishing the cultural sensibilities of contemporary China\, just as different peoples\, at different times\, have engaged art as a vital social response to the movement of history. As Professor Leo Ou-fan Lee has noted\, engagement with these cultural sensibilities allows an audience to grasp “certain core feelings\, the stuff which moves us” so inherent in the drama of life. In presenting this exhibition\, the hope is that an understanding of these core feelings will form the basis for meaningful intercultural dialogue.\"

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CJS Noon Lecture - America’s Role in Making Japan’s Economic Miracle: New Evidence for a Landmark Case
DESCRIPTION:The postwar rise of Japan is one of the most dramatic cases of rapid economic development in modern history. While most studies attribute Japan’s growth to domestic institutions and policies\, this study argues that it depended upon unique international circumstances\; in particular\, Japan’s close security relationship with the United States. Using a recently developed statistical tool – the synthetic control method – we show that the acceleration of Japan’s growth coincided with the consolidation of the U.S.-Japan alliance. We corroborate these results with historical evidence that reveals how the alliance put Japan in a privileged economic position.\n\nAbout the Speaker:\nYusaku Horiuchi is Associate Professor in the Department of Government at Dartmouth College and holds the Mitsui Chair in the Study of Japan. He is the author of Institutions\, Incentives and Electoral Participation in Japan (Routledge 2005)\, and have published articles in leading journals\, including American Political Science Review\, American Journal of Political Science\, Journal of Politics\, World Politics\, among others.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CBSSM Seminar: Michele Gornick\, PhD (Nov. 21)
DESCRIPTION:“Incidental Findings in Genomic Medicine:\nThe Problem with Having Too Much Information\"\n\n \nMichele Gornick\, PhD\nPostdoctoral Research Fellow\, CBSSM/VA\nUniversity of Michigan\n\n3:00-4:00 PM\n\nRoom 266C\, Building 16\nNorth Campus Research Complex (NCRC)\n2800 Plymouth Road\n\nSummary: Both providers and recipients of clinical genome sequencing should be able to adequately anticipate the breadth of health risks and actionable findings that could be discovered through the sequencing process. Yet\, incidental findings are unavoidable outcomes of the process of sequencing a patient’s genome. Incidental findings can occur from both clinicians purposefully seeking out ”˜unknown information’ to gain insight into disease etiology and from ”˜unanticipated information’ uncovered as part of genome sequencing performed for another purpose. Challenges in risk communication and medical decision making will likely arise as genome sequencing is used to individually tailor clinical care. These challenges suggest specific informational needs for clinicians and patients\, as well as systematic and individual-level interventions to meet those needs.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Tackling the Interview to land a full-time job or Internship
DESCRIPTION:Interview workshop for first-years\, sophomores\, juniors\, and seniors.\n\nNow that you’ve submitted your resume and been offered an interview\, the next question becomes how do you prepare for it.\n\nThe solution does not fall into a one-type-fits-all strategy\, but rather it depends on the type of interview you will be engaging in. Everyone recognizes the traditional face-to-face method that is used\, but you may be invited into a phone\, virtual or group interview and the preparation varies greatly for each.\n\nIt doesn’t stop here though\, you could be going into a standard behavioral interview or one with more technical questions depending on the position or company you are applying for. Over this vast range of interview types\, there are specific strategies you can employ to impress your interviewers and land that internship or full-time position. We are here to help clear your mind and give you the foresight so you know what to expect and how you should prepare for each scenario.\n\nSo come join your peer advisors Nick and Mackenzie in this interactive workshop\, where will be going over what you would face in the different settings as well as the strategies that will help you prepare for each.\n\nRegister through Career Center Connector today!\n\nTo Register: 1.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EEB Thursday Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:RNA viruses face dynamic environments and are masters at adaptation. During their short \"lifespans\,\" they must surmount multiple physical\, anatomical and immunological challenges. Central to their adaptive capacity is the enormous genetic diversity that characterizes RNA virus populations. Although genetic diversity increases the rate of adaptive evolution\, low replication fidelity can present a risk because excess mutations can lead to population extinction. We have used the poliovirus model system to study how mutational robustness might influence viral evolution and pathogenesis. Newer work that extends these findings to influenza virus will also be discussed.\n

SUMMARY:Other:Self Esteem and Relationships\; A Relationship Enhancement Series 
DESCRIPTION:Thursdays- Relationship Enhancement Series.  Dealing with difficult people in your life can be extremely stressful. Unfortunately\, few people ever learn the high-level skills needed to manage difficult relationships. This series will help you do just that.\n\nSelf-Esteem and Relationships. Few things in your life can have a greater positive impact than learning to feel good about you. How we feel about ourselves can impact our relationships with friends\, family\, and significant others.  In this workshop you will explore some of the earlier-life experiences that may have formed your current \"core beliefs\" about yourself.  We will talk about how these beliefs influence your life\, relationships\, and behaviors currently.  Lastly\, you will learn strategies for weakening some of the negative self-beliefs that hold you back in your life.\n\n\n\nEach Thursday from 4:15-5:30 p.m. you and other interested students will meet with a counselor and focus on one of the most frequent concerns of U-M students. These are the very issues that U-M students have told us are the most common issues they deal with every day. The counselor will share some helpful information\, talk about strategies and clinical resources\, and she or he will also make time for you to share a little bit about your concerns (if you wish to do so).  \n

SUMMARY:Performance:Birds of Chicago
DESCRIPTION:Birds of Chicago is JT Nero\, a distinctive new American songwriter who lists Mark Twain and Sam Cooke among his biggest songwriting influences. He is a poet of the everyday and the absurd\, of loneliness and hope\, and he's a bit of a rock 'n' roll preacher. Canada's Allison Russell has contributed her silver and gold tones to the band Po' Girl\, and in her voice you'll hear echoes of mountain gospel\, classic soul\, old R&B\, and speakeasy chanteuse music–all backed up by her banjo\, ukulele\, guitar\, clarinet\, and amazing whistling skills to boot. She writes gorgeous\, unpredictable songs and makes other people's her own with startling ease. This duo got together at the Kate Wolf Memorial Fest last year and generated tremendous enthusiasm. Their debut album\, \"Birds of Chicago\, Volume 1\,\" has earned raves across the board. Says the Chicago Tribune: \"They project organic gospel\, hillbilly\, folk and soul elements that bridge traditional and modern approaches.\"
