SUMMARY:Auditions:Auditions for \"The Pirates of Penzance!\"
DESCRIPTION:The University of Michigan Gilbert & Sullivan Society (UMGASS) is holding auditions for The Pirates of Penzance\; or\, the Slave of Duty\, music by A.S. Sullivan\, book and lyrics by W.S. Gilbert\, on Monday\, Tuesday\, and Wednesday\, January 9\, 10\, and 11\, 2017\, from 7:00 – 10:00 pm at the Student Theater Arts Complex (STAC) at 1202 Kipke Dr. (near Crisler Center and the U-M Stadium).\n\n\"The Pirates have gathered at Penzance to celebrate the natal day of one of their own - pirate-in-training Frederic\, who is to be released from his indentures on his 21st birthday. Frederic\, who values the concept of 'duty' above all else\, has vowed\, upon his emancipation\, to vanquish his former comrades. Soon the Pirates find themselves preparing for battle with Major-General Stanley\, who escaped from their clutches by prevarication\, even as Frederic finds himself falling in love with Mabel\, the Major-General's daughter. Then suddenly\, new alliances are turned topsy-turvy when Frederic discovers he might not have completely fulifilled the terms of his indentures\, and his duty may once again place him on the side of piracy\, and against both his future father-in-law\, and his chosen bride!\"\n\nAll principal and ensemble roles are available for SATB\, including Frederic (Tenor)\, Mabel (Soprano)\, Major-General Stanley (Comic Baritone)\, Ruth (Alto)\, The Pirate King (Baritone)\, the Sergeant of Police (Bass Baritone)\, and others.\n\nAuditioners are encouraged to attend the UMGASS Mass Meeting on Sunday\, January 8\, 2017 at 7:00 pm in the Kalamazoo Room at the Michigan League\, 911 N. University Avenue\, on the U-M Central Campus\, to hear about the production from the directors and designers\, and to sign up from prime audition appointments. Audition times are also available by e-mail at umgassexec@umich.edu\, and walk-ins are always welcome on audition nights.\n\nFor the audition\, please prepare ~32 bars of a selection from musical theater\, comic opera\, or opera\, in English\, and bring a copy of the sheet music for the (provided) accompanist. Also be prepared to read scenes from the libretto. Callbacks may be held on Thursday\, January 12 at 7:00 pm. Production dates for The Pirates of Penzance are April 13-16\, 2017 at the Lydia Mendelssohn Theater in the Michigan League building.\n\nCome join us for a rollicking good time!

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Department Colloquium | Clustronics on Quantum Many-Body Architecture
DESCRIPTION:Quantum many-body problems still remain largely unsolved because their information content grows exponentially with particle number due to interactions. I will overview why identifying particle clusters yields a realistic first-principles description of diverse many-body and quantum-optics problems\, and why it introduces the control of clusters – clustronics – as a powerful approach to realize macroscopic quantum effects. I will discuss how clustronics theory can realistically guide experiments by showing several examples involving semiconductors and atomic Bose-Einstein condensates.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Ann Arbor Street Paintings: Oil on Panel
DESCRIPTION:Carlye Crisler\, a well known Ann Arbor artist of en plein air (outdoor) painting\, is originally from the Bucktown district of Chicago. Her goal is to paint an environment or neighborhood by showing activities\, people and lighting at a particular time of day\, capturing an extended sense of place. In this collection of en plein air oil paintings\, Crisler has taken on complicated places with many textures and divisions of space. She embraces ambiguity with shapes of buildings broken by shadow and parts of them hidden by other things barely determined. In addition to a painter of urban landscapes\, Crisler also is a costumer\, figurative portrait painter and metal sculptor.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Art & Healing: American Indian Textiles & Beads
DESCRIPTION:Suzanne L. Cross\, Ph.D.\, Associate Professor Emeritus\, Michigan State University and member of the Saginaw Chippewa Indian Tribe\, is a shawl maker and beadwork artist. She created this body of work to increase awareness and emphasize cardiac health for American Indian women by informing\, supporting\, and encouraging self-care and the value of changing life ways. Shawls are symbols of womanhood and are of significance to many American Indian tribal cultures. Now-a-day traditional female dancers complete their regalia by carrying the shawl over their left arm which is closest to the heart\, and the fringe sways to the heartbeat rhythm of the drum.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Leaders and the Rest: Boundaries and Belonging at the University of Michigan
DESCRIPTION:Who belongs at the University of Michigan? Who gets to draw its boundaries? Michigan students have asked and answered these questions for nearly two hundred years. Against a backdrop of local\, national\, and global change\, they have negotiated their place and redefined their responsibilities. At times\, students have debated among each other\, sparred with faculty and administrators\, negotiated with community members\, and contended with politicians. In so doing\, they have shaped the physical campus\, the student body\, the meaning of community\, and the university’s mission as a public institution.\n\nThis exhibit showcases key moments of student expression\, politics\, and culture from the first decades of the university’s existence in Ann Arbor\, through the upheavals of world wars\, and to the social and cultural turmoil of the late-twentieth century.\n\nOn display January 4-February 25\, 2017\, Hatcher Library Gallery (Room 100).\n\nThis LSA Bicentennial Theme Semester initiative is presented with support from the College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office. Additional support provided by the Department of History and the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Causal Inference in Education Research Seminar (CIERS): Teacher Tenure\, Performance Screens\, and Teacher Improvement: Tenure Reform in New York City
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nPublic school teacher tenure has been debated for nearly a century. Nearly all of this debate has focused on the two competing goals: the protection of teachers from arbitrary dismissal for political or other non-performance related reasons versus the desire to dismiss teachers who are ineffective. There is virtually no discussion of the potential for tenure to act as a performance screen that improves teacher quality and student achievement. A 2009-10 New York City (NYC) reform of its teacher tenure process offers a unique opportunity to explore the implications of a rigorous tenure performance screen. The reform exposed teachers to higher expectations and resulted in a large increase in the share of teachers having their probationary period extended one additional year rather than being granted tenure.\n\nDoes a more rigorous tenure review process improve the performance of early career teachers? To understand the value of the tenure review process as a performance screen\, we examine the reform’s effect on the performance (value-added) and retention of probationary teachers (first three years of teaching) as well as the impact having the probationary period extended on teacher performance. We employ rich data covering AY 2005-06 through AY 2013-14 that include information available to principals about teacher performance\, final tenure decisions\, and school-\, teacher-\, and student-level covariates. To isolate the causal impact of the more rigorous tenure review\, we estimate difference-in-differences models that compare the differences in performance (value-added) or teachers’ retention decisions between early career (those affected by the reform) and later career (those not affected by the reform) teachers over the pre-reform and post-reform periods.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Symposium: Ambiguous Territory: Architecture\, Landscape\, and the Postnatural
DESCRIPTION:Free and open to the public\nAmbiguous Territory: Architecture\, Landscape\, and the Postnatural is a symposium and concurrent exhibition that situates contemporary discourses and practices of architecture and landscape within the context of the Postnatural\; the era of climate change\, the Anthropocene\, and altered ecologies. The symposium asks: In a time when humans have been fundamentally displaced from their presumed place of privilege\, philosophically as well as experientially\, should the disciplines of architecture and landscape architecture consider displacing themselves as well\, in order to establish new affiliations and avail new ways to approach contemporary questions of design in relation to the environment?\nBy bringing designers and scholars from these fields together the symposium and exhibition will highlight projects and ideas that are engaged with these issues from a variety of perspectives\, ranging from scale and experience to questions of matter. Participants will present research and work that use tactics of mediation to understand\, imagine\, interrupt\, and invent artifacts that exist at the large spatial and slow temporal scale of the Anthropocene.\nAmbiguous Territory will present design ideas and proposals from architects\, artists\, and landscape architects whose work challenges their disciplinary boundaries and long-held anthropocentric orientation and redefines the relationship between built and natural environments in an era of ecological anxiety.\nChairs:       \nKathy Velikov\, Associate Professor at the University of Michigan and principal of RVTR\nCathryn Dwyre\, Visiting Associate Professor at Pratt institute School of Architecture and partner at pneumastudio\nChris Perry\, Associate Professor at Rensselaer Architecture and partner at pneumastudio\nDavid Salomon\, Assistant Professor of Art History at Ithaca College.\nKeynotes:\nLiam Young\, urbanist\, designer and futurist\; founder of the futures think tank Tomorrows Thoughts Today (tomorrowsthoughtstoday.com)\; the ‘Unknown Fields Division’ (unknownfieldsdivision.com) at the Architectural Association in London\, and the ‘Fiction and Entertainment’ program at SciArc\nDavid Gissen\, author\, historian\, and Professor of Architecture and Visual and Critical Studies at the California College of the Arts and co-director of the Experimental History Project (http://davidgissen.org/)\nFor a full list of speakers and bios\, please visit the Ambiguous Territory symposium web page. \nAmbiguous Territory Symposium Schedule\nAll events in Taubman College Commons unless otherwise noted\nThursday October 5th\n5:00pm\nAmbiguous Territory Exhibition Reception\n(Taubman College Gallery)\n6:00pm\nKeynote Lecture: Liam Young\n(Art + Architecture Auditorium)\n \nFriday October 6th (all events occuring in The Commons)\n9:00am\nCoffee\n9:30am\nWelcome: Dean Jonathan Massey\nIntroductory Remarks: Associate Dean of Research and Creative Practice Geoffrey Thün\nSymposium Introduction: Kathy Velikov\n10:00am\nAtmospheric Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: Kathy Velikov\nSpeaker 1: Christopher Hight\nSpeaker 2: Lydia Kallipoliti\nSpeaker 3: Sean Lally\nRespondent: Meredith Miller\nRoundtable Discussion\n12:00pm\nLunch Break (lunch not provided)\n1:00pm\nBiologic Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: David Salomon\nSpeaker 1: Jennifer Peeples\nSpeaker 2: Linsdey french\nSpeaker 3: Ricardo de Ostos\nRespondent: Ellie Abrons\nRoundtable Discussion\n3:00pm\nCoffee Break\n3:30pm\nGeologic Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: Cathryn Dwyre and Chris Perry\nSpeaker 1: Alessandra Ponte\nSpeaker 2: Bradley Cantrell\nSpeaker 3: Rania Ghosn and El Hadi Jazairy\nRespondent: Mark Lindquist\nRoundtable Discussion\n5:30pm\nBreak\n6:00pm\nKeynote Lecture: David Gissen\nAmbiguous Territory Exhibition \nSeptember 27th – October 18th 2017\nUniversity of Michigan Taubman College Gallery\nDecember 2018 – January 2019\nPratt Manhattan Gallery\, New York

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Japanese Prints of Kabuki Theater from the Collection of the University of Michigan Museum of Art
DESCRIPTION:Kabuki actors were superstars in eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Japan. They were admired by passionate fans with an insatiable appetite for images of them\, fed by a publishing industry that mass-produced colorful woodblock prints of actors on stage that could be cheaply purchased as souvenirs of or substitutes for a theater experience. Japanese Prints of Kabuki Theater from the Collection of the University of Michigan Museum of Art presents a selection of these dramatic prints that connected fans to their idols\, including off- or backstage portrayals that satisfied fans’ voyeuristic curiosity about their favorite actors’ lives\, fantasy scenes of actors in unlikely groupings\, and even death portraits of especially famous actors. This introduction to the visual culture surrounding kabuki theater includes prints by major artists such as Utagawa Toyokuni (1769–1825)\, Utagawa Kunisada (1786–1865)\, Utagawa Kuniyoshi (1797–1861)\, and Toyohara Kunichika (1835–1900).\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the National Endowment for the Arts\, the William T. and Dora G. Hunter Endowment\, AISIN\, the E. Rhodes and Leona B. Carpenter Foundation\, and the University of Michigan Center for Japanese Studies. Additional generous support is provided by the Japan Foundation and the University of Michigan Institute for Research on Women and Gender.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Moving Image: Landscape
DESCRIPTION:Moving Image: Landscape explores traditional notions of landscape through four very different time-based works by artists Jim Campbell\, Antti Laitinen\, Joanie Lemercier\, and Rick Silva.\n\nCampbell’s recent body of work\, including Seal Rock\, presents pixilated images of landscapes created with grids of LEDs. The low-resolution LEDs create a tension between representation and abstraction\, provoking viewers to interpret visual information on their own. In the three-channel video It’s My Island Laitinen builds his own island in the Baltic Sea by dragging two hundred sand bags into the water over a period of three months. The work explores ideas of nationality\, citizenship\, and identity as the artist creates his own single-citizen micro-nation. Lemercier’s computer-generated print Landforms uses patterns of black dots and projected light to create the illusion of three-dimensionality and movement when seen from a distance. The effects are more realistic than a still image\, but still unsettlingly artificial. Silva’s Render Garden explores the digitized landscape\, including remix and glitch aesthetics\, through software that endlessly generates new plant combinations.\n\nThroughout the next year UMMA will present a series of exhibitions drawn from the Borusan Contemporary Art Collection in Istanbul. The Borusan’s thirty-year-old collection includes significant works across a variety of genres\, and since 2011 it has focused on media arts. The works exhibited here address formal concerns such as abstraction and color\, and conceptual topics such as identity or ecological issues\; many represent traditional categories such as portraiture and landscape that find new resonance when explored through the strategies of dynamic technology.\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Susan and Richard Gutow Fund\,\nthe Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities and Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Protecting Wisdom: Tibetan Book Covers from the MacLean Collection
DESCRIPTION:Protecting Wisdom: Tibetan Book Covers from the MacLean Collection is the first major exhibition to examine the subject of Tibetan book covers. For Tibetan Buddhists\, books are a divine presence in which the Buddha lives and reveals himself\, and they are venerated and handled with the utmost respect. The exhibition features 33 book covers dating from the eleventh to the eighteenth century that represent the glorious iconographic array and non-figural decoration typical of these sacred items. The majority of covers in the exhibition are Tibetan Buddhist\, but the exhibition also includes a rare Bon-religion cover and two covers from Mongolia\, as well as an important pair of covers produced circa 1411 for the Chinese Ming emperor Yongle. Protecting Wisdom presents a stunning visual display that illuminates a virtually unknown type of art\, one that will charm and intrigue both those familiar and unfamiliar with Tibetan art.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Aesthetic Movement
DESCRIPTION:Pictorialism was the first truly international photography movement\, and its practitioners\, among them Alfred Stieglitz\, Edward Steichen and Gertrude Käsebier\, sought to position photography as a legitimate aesthetic art form. They favored soft-focus images that drew upon the conventions of important artists and movements of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries—the influence of the Pre-Raphaelites\, James McNeill Whistler\, Japonisme\, and Art Nouveau are readily seen in the images on view in this exhibition.\n\nIn 1902 Alfred Stieglitz and other Pictorialist photographers founded the Photo-Secession in New York\, with Camera Work as the flagship periodical that published images by the group. Their poetic compositions drawn from contemporary life\, combined with the use of expensive and labor-intensive printing materials such as platinum and gum bichromate\, established these photographs as complex and nuanced works of high artistic quality. The exhibition features work by the principal Pictorialists\, including Stieglitz\, Steichen\, Käsebier\, Clarence White\, Paul Strand\, and Alvin Langdon Coburn.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Traces: Reconstructing the History of a Chokwe Mask
DESCRIPTION:The exhibition Traces focuses on one artwork from the Museum's African holdings: a Chokwe mask that was collected in 1905 near the Angolan city of Dundo by the German explorer Leo Frobenius. Its presence at UMMA today—almost 7\,500 miles away from the context in which it was originally created\, used\, and valued—is the result of a long and tumultuous journey\, spanning a hundred years\, three continents\, and numerous people whose lives are forever connected to the artifact that passed through their hands.\nTraces tells the stories of some of these individuals as it reconstructs the “biography” of the mask. Drawing on the Museum’s African art collection and complemented with national loans\, the exhibition is informed by research that exposes the mask’s many layers and restores some of its historical complexity. Visitors will be able to look closely\, and in great detail\, at this intriguing artwork and its fascinating story.\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the James and Vivian Curtis Endowment. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Center for the Education of Women's Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund and African Studies Center.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Conversations on Europe. Hearing Race and Music in Communist East Germany
DESCRIPTION:Neo-nazism\, racism\, xenophobia\, PEGIDA\, and skinheads: East Germany has earned a reputation lately as a place hostile to immigrants and to racial and ethnic difference. But\, historians point out\, the region wasn't always this way. Before the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989\, the communist German Democratic Republic prided itself for its anti-racism and commitment to international solidarity. How\, then\, do we understand the stark contrast between East Germans under communism and today? How were generations of East Germans taught to understand racial and ethnic difference? This presentation explores how the East German state was and was not the anti-racist state they claimed to be. Championing African American performers as heroes in the fight against imperialism\, the East German state and the audiences attending African American musical concerts nonetheless found ways to valorize and demonize musical and racial difference. \n    \nKira Thurman is an assistant professor of German and history at the University of Michigan\, Ann Arbor. She earned her PhD in history from the University of Rochester in 2013 where she also pursued a minor field in musicology through the Eastman School of Music. Her research\, which has appeared in \"German Studies Review\,\" the \"Journal of World History\,\" \"Opera Quarterly\,\" and the \"Journal of the American Musicological Society\" (JAMS)\, focuses on the relationship between race\, music\, and national identity in Central Europe. She is currently writing her first book\, which is titled\, \"Singing Like Germans: Black Musicians in the Land of Bach\, Beethoven\, and Brahms.\"

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:RTG Seminar on Geometry\, Dynamics and Topology
DESCRIPTION:In 1900\, Hilbert asked (among many other things) if there are only finitely many n-manifolds locally isometrically modeled on Euclidean n-space. About 10 years later\, Bieberbach proved that all such manifolds have virtually abelian fundamental group\, and used this to solve Hilbert's problem. Inspired by this\, we could study compact manifolds that have an affine structure (instead of a Euclidean structure) and ask what their fundamental groups can be. The Auslander conjecture states that the fundamental group of these manifolds are virtually solvable\, and is still open. I will discuss the proof of this conjecture in dimension 2 (classical) and dimension 3 (Fried-Goldman).\n\n* Not conjectured by Auslander\, but proven** by him. However\, asked*** by Milnor.\n**: Auslander's proof contains a flaw.\n***: For complete affine manifolds\, not necessarily compact ones. Noncompact counterexamples have been found by Margulis.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Financial/Actuarial Mathematics
DESCRIPTION:We determine the optimal strategies for purchasing deductible insurance and for investing in a risky financial market in order to minimize the probability of lifetime ruin when the individual is subject to an insurable loss that occurs at a Poisson rate.  We specialize to the case for which the casualty loss is constant and insurance is priced actuarially fairly.  We learn that the optimal deductible strategy is for the individual to purchase no insurance when her wealth is below a so-called {\it buy level}.  However\, when wealth is greater than the buy level\, the individual optimally purchases full insurance coverage.\n Speaker(s): Jenny Young (UM)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Moving from Career Success to Retirement Success
DESCRIPTION:For those anticipating retirement in the next 24 months\, this six-session group on preparing for a satisfying retirement will combine exploration of relevant topics with creative expression and supportive discussion. The focus of this group will be on the transition of retirement and the challenges that come with it -- from questions like \"How will I define myself?\" to “How will I establish priorities and spend my time?”\n\nThe series will help you plan for the non-financial aspects of retirement\, such as redefining who you are\, revisiting what is most important to you\, exploring new interests and opportunities\, and maintaining social connections. You will also learn about what researchers find makes for a fulfilling retirement.\n \nThis series has the capacity for 14 participants\, and is open to all U-M staff\, faculty and students\, as well as the general public.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Algebraic Geometry
DESCRIPTION: Kodaira vanishing is the most famous vanishing theorem in algebraic geometry. After reviewing Kodaira-Nakano vanishing\, I will introduce its generalization to mixed Hodge modules due to Saito and a recent Kawamata-Viehweg type vanishing for pure Hodge modules. In order to understand Q-divisors with normal crossing support\, I will introduce log-D modules and construct a special kind of log-D modules\, Multi-indexed Deligne extensions from C-local systems. After this\, I will deduce a Kawamata-Viehweg type vanishing for log-variations of Hodge structures (log-VHS). If time allowed\, I will also mention how to construct multiplier subsheaves for Hodge modules based on log-VHS which generalizes multiplier ideal sheaves. Speaker(s): Lei Wu (Northwestern University)

SUMMARY:Presentation:Bonderman Info Session (Michigan Union)
DESCRIPTION:The Bonderman Fellowship offers graduating LSA seniors $20\,000 to travel the world. They must travel to 6 countries in 2 regions over the course of 8 months and are expected to immerse themselves in independent and enriching explorations. Bonderman Fellows engage with cultures\, people\, and areas of the world with which they are not familiar\, providing them the opportunity to develop entirely new perspectives.\n\nUM is one of only two schools—along with the University of Washington—to offer the Bonderman award. David Bonderman traveled internationally as a Sheldon Fellow after graduating from Harvard Law School in the 1960s\, and that experience shaped the rest of his life. He created the Bonderman Travel Fellowship in 1995 to provide students with a similar opportunity. Fellows make their own travel itineraries and\, because this is meant to be an individual experience\, cannot engage in formal study at a foreign university\, conduct formal research\, or travel with a guest or organized group.\n\nPizza and other refreshments will be served at all Bonderman info sessions.\n\nAfter this 30-minute info session in the Union\, advisors will be available for another 30 minutes to answer questions.

This pilot policy will go in effect at the beginning of next semester\, Winter 2017.** Please only register for one event and mark this in your calendar. Registration is a commitment to attend. Not attending will cause a delay in allowing your organization to claim more than $1\,000. **

Soon the Pirates find themselves preparing for battle with Major-General Stanley\, who escaped from their clutches by prevarication\, even as Frederic finds himself falling in love with Mabel\, the Major-General's daughter. Then suddenly\, new alliances are turned topsy-turvy when Frederic discovers he might not have completely fulifilled the terms of his indentures\, and his duty may once again place him on the side of piracy\, and against both his future father-in-law\, and his chosen bride!\"\n\nAll principal and ensemble roles are available for SATB\, including Frederic (Tenor)\, Mabel (Soprano)\, Major-General Stanley (Comic Baritone)\, Ruth (Alto)\, The Pirate King (Baritone)\, the Sergeant of Police (Bass Baritone)\, and others.\n\nAuditioners are encouraged to attend the UMGASS Mass Meeting on Sunday\, January 8\, 2017 at 7:00 pm in the Kalamazoo Room at the Michigan League\, 911 N.
