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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

On long time scales the connectivity of its neuronal network evolves persistently - even in adult animals - through synaptic rewiring and the addition and removal of neurons. On short time scales the neuronal activity exhibits pronounced population rhythms reflecting the coherent activity of large ensembles of neurons. Starting from various experimental observations\, we have developed simple computational models of this network evolution that suggest that cortical feed-back controls the adaptive formation of subnetworks through which cortex then modifies sensory processing by the olfactory bulb. The gamma-rhythms of different such subnetworks can have different frequencies. We show that even uncorrelated noise can synchronize these population rhythms.

This paper provides a causal framework to study spillover effects in a setting where units are clustered and their potential outcomes can depend on the treatment assignment of all the units within a cluster. Using this framework\, I discuss parameters of interest and provide conditions under which spillover effects can be identified. I assess the performance of three commonly applied techniques\, the difference in means\, which ignores the presence of externalities\, linear-in-means models and two-stage randomization designs. I then evaluate whether (or under what conditions) these three techniques identify the parameters of interest. Finally\, I put forth easily implemented empirical strategies for estimating these spillover effects and I illustrate my proposed methodology using two empirical applications\, one in education and one in political economy.

It is sometimes ugly\, often embarrassing\, and rich in historical parallels. Still\, Trump has identified an essential truth in the relationship: When it comes to U.S.-China business\, trade policies\, and even geopolitics\, the Chinese system seems to be working better for China than the American system is working for America right now. The question is does Trump and his team have the skill to remedy this situation.\n \nJohn Pomfret is an award-winning journalist and writer\, and the author of the best-selling Chinese Lessons: Five Classmates and the Story of the New China. He first went to study in China in 1980 and has spent 20 years living in China as a correspondent and writer.

More than half of the 5000 students in our College of Natural and Agricultural Sciences (CNAS) are supported by Pell grants\, are members of underrepresented groups\, and are first generation college students. To improve student persistence in STEM\, CNAS has focused on two experiential interventions for first year students: (1) Learning Communities - designed to engage groups of 24 students with faculty\, academic advisors and near-peer mentors\, and (2) the Dynamic Genome course - an authentic research experience where UCR research faculty take ownership of a section and bring the excitement of their research labs to the classroom. The Dynamic Genome (DG) course is an alternative to the traditional Intro Bio Lab where learning communities are randomly assigned to one lab experience or the other. \n\nNow in its sixth year at UC Riverside\, DG is a hands-on bioinformatics/wet lab course that is taught in the state of the art Neil A Campbell Science Learning Laboratory. First articulated in my HHMI Professor Program in 2006\, the DG course was initially proposed as an undergraduate laboratory that replicated my research lab where students learned to navigate cutting-edge methodologies applied to transposable elements in eukaryotic genomes. UC Riverside has proven to be fertile ground for the rapid expansion of the DG course model to a projected 24 sections with a total of 600 first year students by 2018. With the tools and knowledge gained from the Learning Community and Dynamic Genome experiences\, an increasing number of students are entering faculty laboratories as first or second year students.\n\nFor more information about the Foundational Course Initiative\, please see https://rebuild.lsa.umich.edu/ or contact Tim McKay (tamckay@umich.edu).

The form textis referred not only to the production of an oral text\, but also to the complex links between lyrical poets and their public. “Fabric” has the same fecundity in our modern languages\, but it seems to speak less of its process of production than of the object produced. In the racialized social world constructed with the Atlantic expansion of the West\, fabric has served as a second skin\, hiding/transforming/exposing the varieties of the skin underneath. When fabric is produced as a fashion artifact that can be exchanged for a slave on the African market\, when it is painted on a canvas in relationship to the skin it offers/refuses to the spectators of colonial territories\, when it is literally and metaphorically called upon to define the borders of bodies and selves\, fabric interlaces design\, art\, and literature. Our round-table will explore some of these many-textured layers of fabric. \n\nAnne Lafont is a visiting fellow at the Institute for the Humanities\, an assistant professor of modern art history at the University of Paris-Marne la Vallée\, and a scholarly advisor in the field of the history of art history at the French National Institute of Art History (INHA\, 2007-2012).

To illustrate the importance of this concept of volume entropy\, I will try to discuss a theorem due to Besson\, Courtois and Gallot. Among other things\, it will show that on a manifold\, the locally symmetric metric of negative curvature is uniquely determined by two numbers - its volume entropy and volume.

Much of the Michigan Territory was still in the hands of several Native American nations. Euro-American settlement was found only in the Southeast and at the Straits of Mackinac. The proper surveying of Michigan would not begin for another year. And\, only five years earlier\, Detroit and Mackinac had been captured and occupied by the British during the War of 1812. Establishing an institution of higher learning in this rough territory was a gamble indeed.\n\nBrian Leigh Dunnigan\, Curator of Maps at the University of Michigan's William L. Clements Library\, will present a talk describing what Michigan was like when the U-M first opened its doors to scholars.

The availability of high-purity crystals\, in which either single defects can be resolved or ensembles of non-interacting identical defects can exist\, has spurred significant interest in utilizing defects for quantum-enabled applications (e.g. information processing and sensing). In this talk I will first present the potential of combining solid-state defects and integrated photonics to realize quantum information processors\, focusing on my own group’s research on the nitrogen-vacancy defect in diamond. In the second half\, I present our work researching the fundamental properties of effective mass carriers and excitons bound to defects (0D\, 1D\, and 2D) in direct bandgap materials which may be promising alternatives to diamond-based platforms. \n\nBio: Kai-Mei Fu received her A.B. in Physics from Princeton University in 2000 and her M.S. and Ph.D. in Applied Physics from Stanford University in 2003 and 2007\, respectively.

First established in 1970\, GEO was among the first graduate student unions in the United States. The union secured its first contract in 1975\, following a month-long strike\, as members demanded fair wages\, working conditions\, and non-discrimination. Since then\, GEO has bargaining for wage increases\, no-premium healthcare\, tuition waivers\, childcare subsidies\, dental coverage\, access to trans healthcare\, and disability accommodations. This event will feature two former GEO organizers--Sandra Silbertstein and Scott Schneider--in conversation with a member of the union's current bargaining team\, Nora Krinitsky. They will reflect on the early years of the union\, consider the place of graduate labor in the broader labor movement then and now\, and discuss the future of campus labor organizing.\n\nThis LSA Bicentennial Theme Semester event is presented with support from the College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

Calico\, Vanderbilt University DESCRIPTION:On 31 March 1913 Arnold Schoenberg conducted a concert in the Great Hall of Vienna’s Musikverein that would become known as that city’s most notorious scandal concert. The event was broken up by a melee\, charges were filed\, and the subsequent court proceedings were reported in the press. This paper analyzes the ways in which both the scandal and Schoenberg’s response to it sit at the nexus of fin-de-siècle anxieties about Central European concert life\, the anti-noise movement\, and emerging copyright law.\n\n*There is limited seating for this event\, so arriving early is suggested* UID:40115-8474693@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/40115 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Free,Music,North campus LOCATION:Earl V.

However\, one may still ask: what are the consequences of the failure of Kodaira vanishing? We will present a theorem due to Kollar\, which says that non-vanishing of H1(X\,L*) for an ample line bundle L has very strong geometric consequences. The main ingredient of the proof is a construction by Ekedahl of a purely inseparable cover of X with unusual properties. We will also mention applications to the classification of del Pezzo surfaces and Fano threefolds due to Ekedahl and Shepherd-Barron.
