SUMMARY:Exhibition:4\,000 Years for Choice
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition combines two projects by graphic designer Heather Ault. \"4\,000 Years for Choice\" is an exhibition of posters about the age-old practice of abortion and contraception as a means to reclaim reproductive freedom as a deeply personal and life-sustaining act existing throughout all of human history. The \"Reproductive Roots\" series shines a bright light on the many voices from the abortion care and reproductive justice movements\, using vividly designed social media graphics and notecards to inspire conversations from a breadth of perspectives. \n\nHeather Ault is a visual artist\, pro-choice activist\, and independent scholar creating artwork to shift conversations about reproductive rights and justice. She uses vibrant graphics\, affirmative language\, and historical accounts to transform ugly discord into visual narratives that are beautiful and empowering.\n\nThe exhibition is presented by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Women's Studies Department. It is cosponsored by the Program for Sexual Rights and Reproductive Justice\, the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology and the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design. \n\n

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:Exhibit: Plainly Spoken
DESCRIPTION:View a range of binding ideas that came to fruition: models that replicate books from a historical period\, cut-aways that visually reveal their hidden structure\, design bindings that interpret a concept from the text\, and artists’ bindings that play with structures and materials to create something new.\n\nIn this traveling exhibit the Midwest Chapter of the Guild of Book Workers showcases archivist and book conservator Julia Miller’s text Books Will Speak Plain. Incorporating 30 years of her notes and observations\, the 500-page handbook is aimed at conservators\, collectors\, librarians\, and book lovers\, for the identification and description of book structures and styles.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Using Learning Analytics to Measure Out-of-Class Learning: U-M Learning Communities and Medical School Study Resources
DESCRIPTION:Presentation #1: Exploring the Impact of Michigan Learning Communities\nPresentation #2: “What we do may not always be good for us”: Analytics of Michigan Medical Students’ Histology Study Strategies and Learning Success\n \nOut-of-class experiences have been found to have a significant impact on student learning. These two SLAM presentations will focus on using learning analytics to measure outcomes in two different out-of-class contexts at U-M: Michigan Living-Learning Communities and online learning resources for Medical and Dental School students.\n\nStudents engage in a variety of co-curricular activities to enhance their educational experience.  But what impact do these programs have on academic achievement? In \"Exploring the Impact of Michigan Learning Communities\,\" Jennifer Maltby (Associate Director\, Michigan Research Community) will present results from a multi-year effort to assess the impact of six residential Learning Communities at the University of Michigan.\n\nIn the second SLAM presentation\, Michael Hortsch and collaborators will present the results from their research which explores how first year medical and dental students at the University of Michigan make choices from among an array of study resources\, both traditional and electronic\, for learning the basic science subject of histology or microanatomy. Dr. Hortsch and his team will also discuss how the use of these didactic aids correlates with students' quiz and examination results. Michael Hortsch is Associate Professor of Cell and Developmental Biology and Medical Education\, University of Michigan Medical School. Collaborators include Louisa Holaday (M3)\, Stephanie Johnson (D3)\, Daniel Selvig (M4) and Joel Purkiss\, University of Michigan Medical School.\n\nThis event is open to all faculty\, graduate students\, and postdocs. Please register in advance at http://www.crlt.umich.edu/node/58492.\n\nThe Student Learning and Analytics at Michigan (SLAM) Seminar series features both U-M faculty and visitors from other campuses\, focusing on the use of data about students\, courses and academic programs -- for the purposes of improving teaching and learning. For more information about learning analytics at U-M and to view videos and slides from past SLAM presentations\, visit http://crlt.umich.edu/slam.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Lecture: John Forester
DESCRIPTION:John Forester\, Professor of City and Regional Planning at Cornell University\, earned his B.S. and M.S.M.E. degrees (1970\, 1971) before his M.C.P. and Ph.D. in planning (1974\, 1977) at U.C. Berkeley. Forester's early work assessed the micro-politics of planning practices before going on to explore these concerns via a Studs Terkel-like approach\, collecting and analyzing practice-focused\, first person voice \"profiles of practitioners.\" More recently\, Forester has studied the ways planners working in contentious settings could learn from mediators of public disputes. Working in-between parties with conflicting interests and values\, and ample anger\, distrust and fear\, experienced mediators can provide planners with wise practical advice (that can be theoretically interesting too). This work includes Dealing with Differences: Dramas of Mediating Public Disputes (2009) and Planning in the Face of Conflict (2013). Forester’s current projects involve post-Katrina New Orleans (with Ken Reardon)\, street level governance (with David Laws)\, placemaker profiles\, and the challenges of improvisation in planning.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:\"Lighting up the Universe: Witnessing Cosmic Dawn\"\, Professor Martha P. Haynes Cornell University
DESCRIPTION:Thirteen and a half billion years ago\, four hundred thousand years after the Big Bang\, the universe had expanded and cooled enough for hydrogen atoms to form. All was darkness. It took another few hundred million years before stars and galaxies lit up the universe\, ending the cosmic \"dark age.\"\n\nProfessor Haynes will talk about what we know about the first stars\, galaxies\, and supermassive black holes. She will also show how new and future telescopes will enable us to witness the epoch of \"cosmic dawn.\"\n\n----\n\nMartha Haynes is the Goldwin Smith Professor of Astronomy at Cornell University. Her research interests include galaxy formation\, cosmology\, and radio astronomy. She is the vice-president of the International Astronomical Union\, a fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science\, and a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and of the National Academy of Sciences.

SUMMARY:Performance:Nora Jane Struthers
DESCRIPTION:In the words of Claire Lynch\, Nora Jane Struthers \"infuses bright\, fresh lyrics into this traditional genre with sheer intelligence. Musically\, she take unconventional twists and turns\, while 'holding you to the road' with commanding charm.\" With her new album\, \"Carnival\,\" this Brooklyn-to-Nashville transplant has taken Music City by storm with a terrific group of original songs that are by turns breezy and deadly serious. Nora Jane's albums have attracted A-list instrumentalists\, and NPR Music raves: \"Fans of Dixie Chicks\, Alison Krauss and Dolly Parton\, take notice: Nora Jane Struthers embodies everything you could want in an Americana singer-songwriter.” Her sound is a bit bluegrass\, a bit old-time\, and a bit Americana\, and she's putting all these together in whole new ways!\n
