SUMMARY:Exhibition:Banner Moments: The National Anthem in American Life
DESCRIPTION:The new Ford Presidential Library lobby exhibit\, curated by University of Michigan musicologist Mark Clague\, illustrates through interpretive panels\, historical documents and photographs\, the cultural 200-year history of “The Star-Spangled Banner” (1814–2014). The tale that emerges demonstrates the power of music and poetry to spark the social imagination and thus create a sense of shared community.\n\nInspired by the successful defense of Baltimore\, Maryland from British attack in September 1814\, lawyer and amateur poet Francis Scott Key penned his now famous lyric. Rather than extraordinary\, Key’s creative impulse was typical of early America’s broadside ballad tradition in which new words were written to fit well known tunes. The result\, however\, was far from everyday—Key could not have predicted that his song would survive the moment\, yet become his nation’s singular anthem.\n\nFollow the “The Star-Spangled Banner” from the moments leading up to September 14\, 1814 through the present day and explore the social history of our national song.\nMarch 2017 to September 2017 \n\nMonday - Friday. 8:45 am - 4:45 pm\nClosed all Federal holidays.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Another Country
DESCRIPTION:The scenes in Another Country emerge from daily images of conflict and uprising. Discarded shoes\, tarps and handmade signs that mark the post-industrial landscape become part roadside memorial and part doomsday prophecy. These temporary sculptures - set against the backdrop of environmental decline - evoke a cautionary tale of hazmat crews and oil soaked shorelines. \n\nIf there is a place for both apathy and active resistance in the way forward to a better future\, Another Country carries the tension that’s in-between. Inspired by the visual resistance of liberation parties\, past and present\, it urges us to remember why we fight.\n\nShanna Merola is an artist\, activist\, and documentary photographer. Working for civil rights attorneys\, she photographs first amendment activity at protests and facilitates workshops on best practices during police encounters. Over the past five years she has been a human rights observer for social justice movements across the country - from the deeply embattled struggle over water rights in Detroit and Flint\, Michigan - to the frontlines of uprisings in Ferguson\, MO and Standing Rock\, ND. Her collages and constructed landscapes are informed by these rallies - from direct actions against fracking companies to the privatization of water both globally and locally. She is currently working on a collaborative production of Know Your Rights Theatre\, inspired by the politically radical puppet troupes of the 1960’s.\n\nMerola received an MFA in Photography from Cranbrook Academy of Art and a BFA in Photo and Film from Virginia Commonwealth University. She lives and works in Detroit\, Michigan.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Here and There
DESCRIPTION:\"Here and There\"  looks at the problems of extreme poverty\, and includes artist Tracey Snelling's signature piece \"One Thousand Shacks.\" New works--created on campus during her three-week residency--will examine these issues in the US\, how they relate to location and\, at times\, the disenfranchisement of large groups of people for the sake of big business\, political clout\, and power. \n\nCurator's Statement:\n\nTo meet artist Tracey Snelling evokes the sensation of a strong willed breeze determined to open a backyard door. \n\nAs an artist and person\, she is down to earth\, direct\, contemporary\, and moving through it all with volition. \n\nSnelling’s artistic practice originally focused on photography as a medium\, but soon evolved to include her construction of sculptures based upon cities and towns\, strip malls and urban housing. \n\nShe refers to her three dimensional work as sculptural rather than diorama or model making because she isn’t particularly interested in the exact rendering of location\, or the contextualization of place. Instead\, she taps into the energy of community and its humanness—restless\, frenetic\, din\, a choir\, extending beyond the confines of walls. \n\nSnelling’s representations are neither judgmental nor opportunistic. They unaffectedly and objectively offer a multidimensional sketch of a place in time\, how we occupy space. \n\nHer signature piece \"One Thousand Shacks\" (included in this exhibition along with new work created during her her residency here) pushes up against the challenges of economic inequalities\, racial biases\, and imposed class divisions that often limit the options available to so many people. Concurrently\, the installation embraces our everyday existence expressed through Snelling’s exuberant palette\, bold graphics\, video and neon. \n\nConceptually\, Snelling’s stacking method first creates an exalted “big picture” with a myriad of colors\, image\, text\, sound and light. The counterpoint in scale soon immerses the viewer into each small world. With this shift\, the onlooker becomes the active participant\, the occupant in situ\, adding the trappings of their own experiences to each tableau. It is this shift that forces the viewer into a new way of seeing from varying perspectives.\n\nOn the one hand\, the artist’s sculptures allude to our desire for refuge\, a private domain that allows us to be ourselves. On the other\, the overall composition reaffirms it is imperative that we co-exist with one another respectfully\, forge relationships\, understanding our marked differences. It is diversity—the unique and often disparate combination of things\, the cacophony of it all\, that activates communities and public space.\n\nSnelling’s constructions literally build a way out\, one on top of another\, charged with the undercurrent of the way we live. They emphasize our universal longing to find a place called home\, and be accepted\, built on the foundation of one and of many. \n–Amanda Krugliak\, Arts Curator\, Institute for the Humanities\n\nAbout Tracey Snelling:\nThrough the use of sculpture\, photography\, video\, and large-scale installation\, Tracey Snelling gives her impression of a place\, its people and their experience. Often\, the cinematic image stands in for real life as it plays out behind windows in the buildings\, sometimes creating a sense of mystery\, other times stressing the mundane. Snelling’s work derives from voyeurism\, film noir\, and geographical and architectural location. Within this idea of location\, themes develop that transport observation into the realm of storytelling\, with reality and sociological study being the focus. Snelling had exhibited in international galleries\, museums and institutions\, including the The Royal Museum of Fine Arts\, Belgium\; Palazzo Reale\, Milan\; Museum of Arts and Design\, New York\; Kunstmuseen Krefeld Germany\; El Museo de Arte de Banco de la Republica\, Bogota\; the Stenersen Museet\, Oslo\, and the Sundance Film Festival. Her short films have screened at the San Francisco International Film Festival\, the Thessaloniki International Film Festival\, Circuito Off in Venice\, Italy\, and the Arquiteturas Film Festival Lisboa in Portugal. She also received a 2015 Joan Mitchell Painters and Sculptors Grant. Snelling lives and works in Oakland\, California and Berlin\, Germany.

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:Lecture / Discussion:ANDREW CARNEGIE’S LEGACY IS NOT STEEL
DESCRIPTION:Josie Parker received her MLS from UM in 1996. After working as a children’s librarian and youth department manager in Chelsea and later in Ypsilanti\, she came to AADL in 1999. She has been Director since 2002. She serves as a Commissioner on the Michigan Commission for the Blind and the State Library for the Blind in Michigan. She speaks on public library matters to a broad array of groups around the world\, but she is happiest speaking to the Ann Arbor community about its public library.\n\n Ms. Parker will talk about the treasure that is the Ann Arbor District Library\, its mission\, challenges\, and stories about its founding and special collections. She will relate why our library\, unlike most public libraries\, is tied to the school district\, rather than the municipal government. She will also describe the important role that a Scottish immigrant played in the intellectual life of our country. She will describe some of the joys and challenges in public libraries of today and in the future.\n\nThis is the last of a six-lecture series. The subject is The Library – Civilization’s Treasure House of Knowledge. The next lecture series will start April 6\, 2017.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Chicana Fotos: Nancy De Los Santos
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition Dates: Friday\, February 17 - April 14\, 2017\nOpening Reception: Friday\, February 17\, 2017 from 4 - 7 pm\, featuring a performance by Ballet Folklórico De Detroit at 6 pm.\nGallery Talk by Nancy De Los Santos and exhibition curator Maria Cotera: Friday\, February 17\, 2017 at 12 pm\, Walter P. Reuther Library Woodcock Conference Room\nWalter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University\n5401 Cass Ave\, Detroit\, MI 48202\n\nBorn and raised in Chicago by Mexican-American parents\, Nancy De Los Santos is an accomplished filmmaker and proud “Chicana from Chicago” who has dedicated her life and career to rewriting and redefining the image of Latina/os in the mainstream media. Among her most celebrated works are as Co-Writer and Co-Producer of The Bronze Screen: 100 Years of the Latin Image in Hollywood Cinema\, with Susan Racho and Alberto Dominguez\, and as Associate Producer on the feature film Selena.\n\nIn Chicana Fotos\, an exhibit of evocative photographs taken in the 1970s\, we meet a very different Nancy: a woman armed with a camera\, capturing historic events in the struggles for social justice of the time. Nancy’s photographs of Chicano Movement marches and rallies\, farmworker mobilizations in Chicago and Texas\, and Latina organizing in the Midwest and internationally offer a priceless documentary view of Latina/o politics in the 1970s. Her more intimate pictures of everyday Latina/o life capture what it was like to live through a period of radical social transformation. The exhibit includes rare photographs of UFW organizing activities in Chicago\, the Texas Farmworker Pilgrimage of 1977\, and the first ever International Women’s Year Conference in Mexico City in 1975. These images are supplemented by never before exhibited documents from the Walter P. Reuther UFW Collection.\n\nChicana Fotos was curated by University of Michigan professor Maria Cotera (with assistance from Pau Nava) and designed by students and faculty of the UM Stamps School of Art & Design. Stamps School faculty Hannah Smotrich and Katie Rubin co-taught the collaborative\, interdisciplinary Exhibition Design class with students Ian Crowley\, Rachel Dawson\, Emilie Farrugia\, Kelsi Franzino\, Andrew Han\, Jack Hyland\, Maggie Lemak\, Megan Lewin-Smith\, Katie Mongoven\, Olivia Moore\, Pau Nava\, and Sarah Wolf.\n\nChicana Fotos is a collaboration between the El Museo del Norte\, the Chicana por mi Raza Digital Archive\, the Stamps School of Art & Design and the Walter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University.\n\nThe Walter P. Reuther Library of Labor and Urban Affairs at Wayne State University is the largest labor archive in North America. In addition to internationally significant collections on the history of the North American labor movement\, the Reuther Library holds the official records of Wayne State University\, as well as extensive records documenting urban affairs\, civic life\, civil rights\, ethnic and religious organizations\, and community development across Southeast Michigan.\n\nChicana Fotos was made possible through the generous financial support of the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative and the Stamps School of Art & Design. Gallery talk sponsored by the Center for Latina/o and Latin American Studies\, Wayne State University\, and the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Constructing Gender
DESCRIPTION:Ask U-M students\, alumni\, or fans what symbolizes the University of Michigan\, and you’ll likely hear the Big House\, the Diag\, along with the Michigan Union and the Michigan League. Since they officially opened in 1919 and 1929\, respectively\, the Union and League have been destinations for generations of Wolverines yet few know the rich history of the buildings’ origins or about the architects who brought them both to life: brothers and U-M alums Irving K. and Allen Pond.\n\nThe exhibition\, organized in celebration of the University of Michigan’s bicentennial in 2017\, illuminates the architecture and bustling student life of these iconic buildings using original drawings\, renderings\, photographs\, color studies\, and even dance cards from the Bentley Historical Library\, which serves as the University of Michigan archives. These fascinating documents reveal how the buildings were conceived\, constructed\, and first occupied by students and alumni. Guest curated by Nancy Bartlett of the Bentley Historical Library\, the exhibition reveals how the Ponds meticulously conceived and constructed the two clubs—one for men\, one for women—by weaving ideas about gender and society into the very fabric of the buildings themselves.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run
DESCRIPTION:In 2013\, artist Ernestine Ruben (BSDEs ’53) photographed the once-famed industrial complex Willow Run in Washtenaw County\, Michigan. Designed by her grandfather\, Detroit architect Albert Kahn\, for the Ford Motor Company\, Willow Run was an exemplar of American defense manufacturing because of its efficient mass-production of B-24 Liberators during World War II.\n\nFor this exhibition\, Ruben overlaid interior views of the now-dormant factory with imagined glimpses into her body’s interior landscape. The resulting compositions seem to breathe energy and light into the stagnant and cavernous spaces of Willow Run and suggest a longing for a productive existence undeterred by mortality for both Willow Run and the artist. Her grandfather’s role in the history of the site underscores Ruben’s personal connection.\n\nThe exhibition presents Ruben’s photographs of Willow Run in UMMA’s Photography Gallery and an original film—co-created by Ruben and video artist Seth Bernstein and featuring an original score by award-winning composer Stephen Hartke—in the Museum’s Forum.\n\nLead support for Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run: Mobilizing Memory is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the Herbert W. and Susan L.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:GOIN’ NORTH: BLACK DETROIT  AND THE  GREAT MIGRATION\,  1910-1930
DESCRIPTION:Summary: \nExhibit of photographs and documents produced by the Michigan Historical Collections in Commemoration of Martin Luther King\, Jr. Day at the University of Michigan\, published 1991.\nBLACK DETROIT AND THE GREAT MIGRATION\n\nSince Norf is up\,\nAn’ Souf is down\,\nAn’ Hebben is up\,\nI’m upward boun’.*\nThey came to Detroit by the thousands from Georgia\, Alabama\, Tennessee\, South Caroline and they stayed. They were part of what historians characterize as a watershed in African American History-the Great Migration. From 1910 to 1930\, hundreds of thousands of Blacks headed North\, leaving the South because of economic hardship\, poor educational opportunities\, and enticed by the lure of better jobs in northern industries and more freedom. Cites in the industrial Northeast and Midwest experienced astounding increases in their Black populations\, but few more so that Detroit\, its institutions and its cultures\, took shape and developed. The problems encountered by the migrants in the form of discrimination and racial animosity were problems with which the city would grapple throughout the decades to follow.\n\nThis exhibit focused on the two major concerns of the migrants\, housing and jobs\, and on the attempts made by various organizations in adjusting to life in Detroit. It is primarily compiled from the holding s of the University of Michigan’s Bentley Historical Library\, particularly the rich collection of the Detroit Urban League. It is also drawn from the Collections of the Detroit Public Library\, the Walter Reuther Collection of the Detroit Public Library\, the Walter Reuther Collection of Labor History and Urban Affairs (Wayne State University)\, the Collections of the Henry Ford Museum and Greenfield Village\, the Detroit News\, and tge Second Baptist Church of Detroit\, Michigan. The exhibit was prepared by Christine Weideman and Karen Jania\, staff members of the Bentley Historical Library.\n\n*From the poem\, “Northboun’” by Lucy Ariel Williams\, printed in Opportunity “: a Journal of Negro Life\, June 1926. The journal was a publication of the National Urban League.

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:Victors for Art: Michigan's Alumni Collectors–Part I: Figuration
DESCRIPTION:Commemorating the University of Michigan’s 2017 Bicentennial\, Victors for Art: Michigan’s Alumni Collectors celebrates the deep impact of Michigan alumni in the global art world. This two-part exhibition (Part I: Figuration followed by Part II: Abstraction on view July 1– October 29) presents works collected by a diverse group of alumni that represent the breadth of the University and over seventy years of graduating classes. The works themselves are equally diverse\, ranging from ancient sculptures to contemporary multimedia works. Part I: Figuration features works by Henri Matisse\, Elizabeth Louise Vigée Le Brun\, Mark Tansey\, and Mickalene Thomas\, among others\, and allows visitors to explore the variety of artistic responses and purposes encompassed by the term “figuration”. It also offers an unprecedented opportunity to view art that may have never been publicly displayed otherwise—and most certainly\, not all together. For visitors\, and especially for future Michigan alumni\, Victors for Art illuminates the shared passion for art fostered by the Michigan experience.\n\nThis exhibition was organized by Joseph Rosa\, Guest Curator\, in collaboration with Laura De Becker\, Helmut & Candis Stern Associate Curator of African Art\, Jennifer Friess\, Assistant Curator of Photography\, Lehti Mairike Keelman\, Assistant Curator of Western Art\, and Natsu Oyobe\, Curator of Asian Art.\n\nLead support for Victors for the Arts: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the President\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

DESCRIPTION:Let L/K be an abelian extension of global fields. In simple terms\, the Artin reciprocity law gives an map from fractional ideals prime to discriminant to the Galois group\, with an explicit kernel. This description differs a lot from classical reciprocity laws\, which gives a way to compute whether a number is an n-th power mod p. We will discuss the relationship between the two\, in particular in the case n = 2 and 3.  Speaker(s): Angus Chung (UM)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Commutative Algebra
DESCRIPTION:Let R be a local ring and I an ideal of finite colength in R. We assume that I is integrally closed. In this talk\, I will discuss an inequality involving the number of generators\, the Loewy length and the multiplicity of I. There is strong evidence that the inequality holds for all integrally closed ideals of finite colength if and only if R has sufficiently nice singularities. I will explain the proofs for regular local rings in all dimensions\, for rational singularity in dimension 2\, and cDV singularities in dimension 3. This is joint work with Ilya Smirnov.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Analysis/Probability Learning Seminar
DESCRIPTION:The stochastic localization technique was first used by Eldan in 2012 to show that the optimal constants (with respect to the dimension) in the thin shell conjecture\, and the conjecture by Kannan\, Lovasz\, and Simonovits (KLS) are equivalent up to logarithmic factors. Since then\, it has also found other applications in convex geometry and probability. In particular\, Lee and Vempala used it to improve the best known constant in the KLS conjecture.\n\nIn this talk\, I will continue with the outline of stochastic calculus\, and more specifically talk about Ito's formula (in one and several dimensions). If time permits I will describe the stochastic localization scheme which we will investigate in the next part.\n Speaker(s): Alon Nishry (University of Michigan)

SUMMARY:Other:Atmospheric Reactions at the Surfaces of Sea Spray Mimics
DESCRIPTION:Interfacial reactions between gases and aqueous solutions play an enormous role in our environment.  From a microscopic perspective\, this is because water molecules\, ions\, and organic surfactants at the surface of the solution are the first to interact with approaching gas-phase molecules.  These “frontier” surface species can momentarily bind to incoming molecules and react with them or block their entry into solution.  We can explore the dynamics of these collisions and reactions in vacuum using thick glycerol films and thin water microjets\, which are narrower than a strand of hair.  I will describe how these techniques can be used to map out the interfacial oxidation of Br- to Br2 by N2O5\, catalyzed by ionic surfactants that serve as proxies for sea spray aerosols.\nGilbert Nathanson (University of Wisconsin)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Economic Development: Promoting the takeup of preventive health interventions with alternative incentive strategies: evidence from two randomized controlled trials in Kenya
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nDespite the widespread availability of interventions that significantly reduce the risk of acquiring communicable and non-communicable diseases\, low uptake of such interventions remains a challenge in both low and high-income countries. Although the use of financial incentives has been promoted as a promising approach to behavior modification\, few studies have directly compared two commonly-used approaches—fixed incentive amounts and lottery-based incentives. This paper reports results from two randomized controlled trials in Kenya that tested whether alternative amounts and types of incentives promote takeup of medical male circumcision\, an intervention that can reduces HIV acquisition by nearly 60 percent. Providing a fixed incentive generated a nearly 5-fold increase in circumcision uptake\, and such incentives were most effective in nudging those contemplating going for circumcision. Lottery-based incentives did not have a significant impact on behavior. The results suggest that fixed incentives worth US$8-$15 are highly cost-effective.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Thursday Seminar: Variation and selection of genes controlling ecologically important traits in nature
DESCRIPTION:Although many studies provide examples of evolutionary processes such as balancing selection or deleterious polymorphism\, the relative importance of these processes for phenotypic variation is unclear. To understand the evolutionary forces that influence variation in a wild relative of Arabidopsis\, we are studying genes that control complex traits and fitness in nature. We performed a Genome-Wide Association Study (GWAS) for ~100 traits\, using sequenced genotypes from 430 populations across the species range. Among the significant results\, we focus on a gene that is widely polymorphic and experiences heterogeneous selection among natural populations in the Rocky Mountains. Field experiments show that this polymorphism is influenced by fitness trade-offs in nature.\n \nLight refreshments served at 4 p.m.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Law & Economics: Error Costs\, Statistical Significance\, and Legal Decision Rules
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\n\nThe relationship between legal decision rules and thresholds of statistical significance is a well-known and studied phenomena in the academic literature. Moreover\, this distinction has been recognized in law. For example\, in Matrix v. Siracusano\, the Court unanimously rejected the petitioner’s argument that the issue of materiality in a securities class action can be defined by the presence or absence of a statistically significant effect. However\, in other contexts\, thresholds based on fixed significance levels continue to be used as a legal standard. Our positive analysis demonstrates how a choice of either a statistical significance threshold or a legal standard represent alternative and often inconsistent ways to tradeoff error costs\, and that thresholds based on fixed significance levels are not generally consistent with optimal legal rules. We also show how the two thresholds can be reconciled by replacing fixed significance levels with likelihood ratio\ntests.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Queer Geek Methodologies: Social Justice Fandom as a Transformative Digital Humanities
DESCRIPTION:Mobilized in contexts ranging from the Movement for Black Lives to debates about safe spaces and freedom of speech on university campuses\, digital demands for social justice are often expressed in creative forms that draw from popular media. This talk draws from early work on a new book project that explores the digital production of knowledge about gender\, race\, and disability through the intersection of social justice discourse and fan culture\, exploring ways that the creative production of media fan subcultures has preceded and shaped the development of contemporary digital politics. Participants in creative fan communities have theorized their own knowledge production as in conversation with\, yet distinct from both media industrial and academic models\; drawing from these approaches enables us to understand “digital humanities” as a phenomenon that need not be contained within the bounds of academic disciplines. Through the creation\, circulation\, and reception of fan fiction\, vids\, and other creative works\, fans have developed complex methodologies for social justice activism\, bringing together concepts from feminist\, queer\, critical race\, and disability studies with the intense effective investments that being a fan entails. \n\nAlexis Lothian is Assistant Professor in the Department of Women’s Studies and Core Faculty in the Design Cultures and Creativity Program at University of Maryland College Park. Her scholarship is situated at the intersection of queer studies\, speculative fiction\, and social justice in digital culture. Her book Old Futures: Speculative Fiction and Queer Possibility is under contract with NYU Press\, and she has also published in venues that include Poetics Today\, International Journal of Cultural Studies\, Cinema Journal\, Camera Obscura\, Social Text Periscope\, Journal of Digital Humanities\, Extrapolation\, and Ada: a Journal of Gender\, New Media\, and Technology. She is a founding member of the #transformDH digital humanities collective and the editorial team of the open access journal Transformative Works and Cultures\, a member of the Tiptree Award motherboard\, and co-chairs the academic track at the feminist science fiction convention WisCon.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Topology
DESCRIPTION:Several interesting metrics have been defined for Teichmueller spaces of hyperbolic surfaces. However\, analogous metrics on the Teichmueller space of the flat torus have not been well studied. We define an analog of Thurston's Lipschitz metric for this space and find that it agrees with the hyperbolic metric. In particular\, this gives a new way to realize the hyperbolic plane as the moduli space of marked flat tori. This work is joint with Lizhen Ji. Speaker(s): Mark Greenfield (University of Michigan)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Colloquium Series
DESCRIPTION:\nThe relationship between mathematics and physics has a long history. Traditionally\, mathematics provides the language physicists use to describe Nature. In turn\, physics brings mathematics to life\, by providing inspiration and interpretation. String theory is changing the nature of this relationship. I will try to explain why\, and give you a flavor of the emerging field.  Speaker(s): Mina Aganagic (UC Berkeley)

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Environmental Criminal Enforcement
DESCRIPTION:Please join the Environmental Law & Policy Program for its 2017 conference on environmental criminal enforcement. The conference will begin on Thursday\, March 30\, at 4:15 PM with a keynote session commemorating the 30-year history of the Environmental Crimes Section at the Justice Department. This panel discussion will feature the eight prosecutors who have served as Chief of the Environmental Crimes Section: Jud Starr (1987-1989)\, Jerry Block (1989-1991)\, Neil Cartusciello (1991-1994)\, Ron Sarachan (1994-1997)\, Steve Solow (1997-2000)\, David Uhlmann (2000-2007)\, Stacey Mitchell (2007-2014)\, and Deborah Harris (2014-present). Their discussion will provide an overview of criminal enforcement under the environmental laws from the Exxon Valdez\, Colonial Pipeline\, and Koch Petroleum to the Gulf oil spill\, Volkswagen\, and Lumber Liquidators\, along with hundreds of other cases prosecuted over the last 30 years. \n\nThe conference will continue on Friday\, March 31. We will begin the morning with a panel discussion about the role of criminal enforcement in environmental and worker safety disasters\, with a focus on the Gulf oil spill and the Upper Big Branch mine disaster. Environmental prosecutors often focus on cases where the harm is greatest but those cases also raise questions about whether criminal prosecution is appropriate for industrial accidents. Our second panel of the morning will focus on fraud and concealment\, with a focus on the recent prosecution of Volkswagen and the use of Title 18 charges generally. During lunch we will feature breakout discussions in two recurring areas of environmental criminal enforcement: pipeline safety issues (with an emphasis on the 2010 Enbridge oil spill in the Kalamazoo River) and international smuggling cases (with a focus on the 2016 prosecution of Lumber Liquidators for importing illegally seized hardwoods from Asia). These smaller breakout sessions will give conference participants a greater opportunity to join the discussions. Our conference will conclude with a panel discussion about the criminal prosecution of state and local officials for the Flint drinking water crisis. We will explore the extent to which residents of Flint\, Michigan were betrayed by their state and municipal governments–as well as the difficult question of under what circumstances government officials should face criminal charges. Our moderators are University of Michigan law professors who are joined by panelists that include academics\, prosecutors\, and defense attorneys from throughout the United States who are leading experts on environmental crime. Our conference participants include Michigan faculty and students\, as well as Ann Arbor residents and interested citizens from throughout Michigan.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Karim Rashid: The Future of Design
DESCRIPTION:Karim Rashid’s creativity finds form in commercial product design\, hospitality and retail design\, packaging\, interiors\, architecture\, and contemporary art. With over 4\,000 designs in production — ranging from high-end Pepsi bottles to the facade of New York high-rises — Rashid’s massive international client roster includes Alessi\, Veuve Clicquot\, Umbra\, Bobble\, 3M\, Method\, Eos\, Bonaldo\, Audi\, and Citibank. Rashid’s visual art is featured in 20 permanent collections in art institutions worldwide\, including the Brooklyn Museum of Art\, MoMA\, and The Center Pompidou. His philosophical refusal of a typological creative identity has contributed to his reputation as a culture-maker\, thought-leader\, and proponent of the importance of design in everyday life.\n\nRashid is a perennial winner of the Red Dot Award\, Chicago Athenaeum Good Design Award\, Pentawards\, and IDSA Industrial Design Excellence award. He received a Bachelor of Industrial Design in 1982 from Carleton University. Karim’s 2015 monograph\, XX (Design Media Publishing)\, features 400 pages of work selected from the last 20 years.\n\nSupported by the Detroit Creative Corridor Center\, stewards of the UNESCO City of Design designation.

DESCRIPTION:William R. Farrand Memorial Lecture\n\nProfessor Kerstin Barndt will share new findings about the history of U-M's world-class collections of natural history\, ethnography and art. Her talk traces the collections’ origins in the State Geological Survey and global collection expeditions. As Michigan’s first acclaimed public museum\, the University Museum in Ann Arbor was a showcase of the State and of U-M as a leading research university. What kind of exhibitions could visitors expect to see? How did the collections foster the University’s research mission and its growing disciplinary specialization? The talk draws on Barndt's forthcoming co-edited book\, Object Lessons and the Formation of Knowledge: The University of Michigan Museums\, Libraries and Collections 1817-2017.\n\nA dessert reception will follow the talk.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Ethics Discussion Group Lecture: Moral Discourse and a Central Misconception of Metaethics
DESCRIPTION:Moral abolitionists tend to share the view that moral discourse promotes self-deception or otherwise inhibits normatively important forms of self-knowledge. Fortunately\, we can ignore abolitionist critiques unless moral error theory succeeds. Or so goes the assumption I term the Central Misconception. It is a misconception because a normative critique of moral discourse need have no truck with moral error theory. And the misconception is central in the sense that it is a primary impediment to recognizing that investigating the value of moral discourse ought to be a more central task in metaethics. I argue that the Central Misconception has served to preclude awareness that a variety of non-error-theoretic views are compatible with—and many are quite friendly to—moral abolitionism. I try to show that even if expressivism or non-error-theoretic subjectivism can defeat error theory\, such abolitionist critiques can remain entirely unaffected. Yet more surprisingly\, prominent forms of these views unwittingly support abolitionist critiques. I conclude that the Central Misconception has contributed to a widespread andunjustified complacency about the value of ordinary moral discourse.

SUMMARY:Performance:Ben Caplan
DESCRIPTION:A charismatic charmer and a smasher of pianos. A madman and an earnest poet. A strummer of delicate chords and a lover of bent and broken melodies. Ben Caplan is not any one thing. As he releases his second album\, he's already gained a following in more than a dozen countries from Australia to Europe and across North America\, and it's no surprise. Ben Caplan is simply unforgettable\; with his huge beard and unruly mane\, he is as visually striking as he is aurally compelling. His rough and textured tones cut through crowded halls with an enormous voice\, roaring louder than raucous crowds. The microphone looks almost superfluous. But looks are deceiving\; once he has your attention\, Ben can croon smoother than a glass of single malt whisky\, pouring beauty into a harsh world. Inspired in part by Eastern European and Jewish folk traditions\, Ben Caplan mixes older musical sensibilities with his own soul\, straight from his hairy heart. Lyrically\, you've not heard the like before. Often edgy and dark\, he holds a mirror up to show us our nasty dies\, singing about the ugliness—and showing us that this darkness is the root of the sublime. His new album\, \"Birds with Broken Wings\,\" explodes with sounds both ancient and modern\, with more than 30 musicians and even more instruments\, combining acoustic sounds from around the world. It's all smoothly blended by the hottest international production team around. It's uncharted territory\, and Ben Caplan's leading the way.
