SUMMARY:Exhibition:Drawdown Vietnam\, April – May 1975
DESCRIPTION:America’s long involvement in the war in Vietnam and Indochina drew to a close in April - May 1975. As the city of Saigon fell to the advancing North Vietnamese Army\, the United States military evacuated thousands of South Vietnamese civilians to ships nearby.\n\nIn the midst of the chaos\, two smaller rescues took place – Operation Babylift\, in which more than three thousand children and babies were airlifted to safety\, and the rescue of the S.S. Mayaguez\, whose ship and crew were captured by forces of the new Cambodian Khmer Rouge government less than two weeks following the fall of Saigon.\n\nThe unfolding of these events are chronicled in two lobby displays at the Gerald Ford Presidential Library – complete with artifacts\, photographs\, documents and personal stories of those involved.\n\nThe exhibit is free to Library visitors\, and will be on display through September\, 2015. \n\nPlease note that the Library is NOT open on weekends or Federal holidays. Library hours are Monday – Friday  8:45 a.m. to 4:45 p.m.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibit: Women in Science
DESCRIPTION:Colorful comic book graphics in this panel exhibit invite young U-M Museum of Natural History visitors from every background to see themselves working in STEM fields (Science\, Technology\, Engineering\, and Mathematics)\, and changing the world.\n\nDeveloped by Ann Marie Macara\, a fifth-year graduate student in the U-M Department of Molecular\, Cellular\, and Developmental Biology\, the exhibit features four women scientists whose work had a major impact in their fields. These women persevered against the odds and are powerful role models who continue to inspire young women to follow in their footsteps in STEM.\n\nMary Anning represents Science for her discoveries of fossils from the Jurassic period. Annie Easley personifies Technology as one of the few African-American computer scientists to work at NASA (then NACA) as a ‘human computer’ and who then developed software for rockets. Sarah Goode stands for Engineering as the first African-American woman to receive a US patent for her invention of the folding cabinet bed. Finally\, Wang Zhenyi exemplifies Mathematics for her mathematical models of astronomical events\, including eclipses. \n  \nThe exhibit was made possible through the support of the U-M Life Sciences Institute\; a MAAS Professional Development Award\; the Program in Biomedical Science\; the Department of Molecular\, Cellular\, and Developmental Biology\; the Women in Science and Engineering Program\; and FEMMES (Females Engaged in More Math\, Engineering and the Sciences).

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Jewish Tradition of Tsedakah as Exemplified in Pushkes\, Charity Donation Boxes
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit features an eclectic selection of Pushkes (פּושקעס) – the common Yiddish moniker for charity/donation boxes. In Judaism\, dispensing of charity is not simply a monetary transaction. Rather\, the act is a beautiful exemplar of an individual’s conscious choice to help another person\, while also acknowledging the transience of material wealth and paying one’s good fortunes forward.\n\nThese Pushkes function as vessels that anonymize the donations within\, stressing that the act of giving should not be done for acknowledgement. Instead\, giving should signify a gesture of honest good will. Furthermore\, the amalgam of wealth inside these boxes is comprised of the materiality and benevolence of an entire community.\n\nצדקה תציל ממװת\nTsedakah tatsil mi-mavet\nCharity Saves from Death\n     — 156b\, Tractate Shabes\, Babylonian Talmud\n\nAll items on display were donated by Constance Harris and are on loan from the Jewish Heritage Collection Dedicated to Mark and Dave Harris\, Special Collections Library\, University of Michigan Library—except where otherwise noted.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:ACS Poly/PMSE Student Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Ultrafast Spectroscopic Study of Donor-Acceptor Light Harvesting Organic Conjugated PolymersPresenter: Bradley KellerNew light harvesting organic conjugated polymers(CP) containing 4\,8-bis(2-ethylhexyloxy)benzo[1\,2-b\;3\,4-b’]dithiophene(BDT) donor groups and thiophene(T) acceptor groups with various electron-withdrawing groups have garnered great interest for their high power conversion efficiencies (PCE).  One of the leading organic light harvesting CP\, poly[[4\,8-bis[(2-ethylhexyl)oxy]benzo[1\,2-b:4\,5-bʹ]dithiophene-2\,6-diyl][3-fluoro-2-[(2-ethylhexyl)carbonyl]thieno[3\,4-b]thiophenediyl]] (PTB7)\, has shown exceptionally high PCE making it an appealing material for solar cell applications.  Herein\, we investigated new polymers with BDT donor groups and with thiophene acceptor groups with various electron-withdrawing groups using ultrafast spectroscopy in order to elucidate the spectroscopic and optical properties that contribute to high PCE light harvesting organic CPs.  The results show polymers with large dipole moments\, large two-photon cross-sections\, fast decay dynamics\, and low quantum yields exhibited the best PCEs.   These properties may be useful in designing more efficient light harvesting CPs.   Rapid\, Puncture-Initiated Healing via Oxygen-Mediated PolymerizationPresenter: Scott ZavadaAutonomously healing materials that utilize thiol–ene polymerization initiated by an environmentally borne reaction stimulus are demonstrated by puncturing trilayered panels\, fabricated by sandwiching thiol–ene–trialkylborane resin formulations between solid polymer panels\, with high velocity projectiles\; as the reactive liquid layer flows into the entrance hole\, contact with atmospheric oxygen initiates polymerization\, converting the liquid into a solid plug. Using infrared spectroscopy\, we find that formulated resins polymerize rapidly\, forming a solid polymer within seconds of atmospheric contact. During high-velocity ballistics experiments\, additional evidence for rapid polymerization is provided by high-speed video\, demonstrating the immediate viscosity increase when the thiol–ene–trialkylborane resins contact atmospheric oxygen\, and thermal imaging\, where surface temperature measurements reveal the thiol–ene reaction exotherm\, confirming polymerization begins immediately upon oxygen exposure. While other approaches for materials self-repair have utilized similar liquid-to-solid transitions\, our approach permits the development of materials capable of sealing a breach within seconds\, far faster than previously described methods.
