We present results from both a small pilot in one introductory-level microeconomics course at a comprehensive research university\, and the scale-up conducted in over 20 classrooms in a large broad-access university. The intervention consisted of several strategically-timed E-mails to students from the professor indicating keys to success in the class\, the professor’s knowledge of the students’ current standing in the course\, and a reminder of when the professor is available. Results from the pilot show that students in the treatment group scored higher on exams\, homework assignments\, and final course grade\, compared to students in the control group. Results from the larger experiment at the broad access institution are more mixed\, with strong positive effects on final course grade for Latino students (the largest racial/ethnic group on the campus)\, but not for other groups. In addition\, we explore several mechanisms\, including increased time spent on homework assignments (pilot) and a lower likelihood of dropout/failure and increased sense of support from the professor (scale-up).

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.

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 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.

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.

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.

In the 25 years of market economy\, a new generation of architects and planners emerged in Russia. The rigid soviet planning system is slowly giving way to participatory models. Public space became a topic of heated public discussion and generous cityinvestment sector. Millions of square meters of housing have been built\, testing to the limit the soviet traditional prefabrication model. The microrayon heritage has been explored and re-evaluated. Julia Burdova and Olga Aleksakova\, partners at Buromoscow\, will talk about changes happening in Russia with the examples of their work.\n\nOlga Aleksakova\, Dipl ing\, CMA\, SBR.

We investigate this property by computing the entanglement entropy\, via the replica trick\, in states dual to superpositions of macroscopically distinct geometries and find it consistent with evaluating the expectation value of the area operator within such states. However\, we find that this fails once the number of semi-classical states in the superposition grows exponentially in the central charge of the CFT. Moreover\, in certain such scenarios we find that the choice of surface on which to evaluate the area operator depends on the density matrix of the entire CFT. This nonlinearity is enforced in the bulk via the homology prescription of Ryu-Takayanagi. We thus conclude that the homology constraint is not a linear property in the CFT.

Simultaneously geopolitical and inter-cultural\, innovative and oppressive\, adaptable\, whimsical\, provisional\, and scary global in its pretensions and reach\, Shenzhen follows on piracy\, colonial expansion\, international socialism\, the rise of the East Asian Tigers\, the Cold War\, and the era of Reform and Opening. Shenzhen is also excruciatingly banal\, suffusing everyday life and ordinary minds with a sense that suddenly\, abruptly\, and even unexpectedly we’re all living intercultural lives\, but not the same intercultural lives\, and certainly not with the same values\, or if with the same values not exactly with the same valuation of those values. This talk thinks about how we’ve been blindsided by globalization. \n\nMary Ann O'Donnell is an independent artist-ethnographer and co-founder of the Handshake 302 Art Space in Baishizhou\, Shenzhen’s most iconic urban village. Her blog\, “Shenzhen Noted” (formerly “Shenzhen Fieldnotes”) has chronicled the city’s transformation through photography\, notes\, translation\, and occasional essays since 2005. As an independent public intellectual\, O’Donnell contributes to projects that make legible the scale\, history\, and theoretical implications of urbanization in Shenzhen. As a curator\, she develops projects that redefine urban possibility through creative engagement with informal urbanization.

In particular\, if a non-elementary word hyperbolic group is not commensurable to a non-trivial free product or the fundamental group of a closed hyperbolic surface\, then then any projective Anosov representation of that group acts convex cocompactly on some properly convex domain in real projective space. We also show that if a projective Anosov representation preserves a properly convex domain\, then it acts convex cocompactly on some (possibly different) properly convex domain. We will then use these constructions to show that Anosov representations in general semisimple Lie groups can be defined in terms of the existence of a convex cocompact action on a properly convex domain in some real projective space (which depends on the semisimple Lie group and parabolic subgroup).

This panel addresses this question by exploring key moments and figures in U-M’s queer history during the years spanning 1900-1960. By unraveling the moments in which queer experiences became public and by tracing the networks and movements of key figures\, such as U-M graduate Forman Brown (who published his 1933 gay coming-of-age novel Better Angel under the pseudonym Richard Meeker)\, this panel works towards determining the reach and scope of U-M’s early twentieth-century queer histories.

The information is given in the form of galaxy locations\, and is typically condensed into a single function of scale\, such as the galaxy correlation function or power-spectrum. However\, galaxy correlation functions are not the only information those surveys provide. One of the most striking features of N-body simulations is the network of filaments into which dark matter particles arrange themselves. We however traditionally only use the information contained in the positions of the galaxies\, and in some occasions\, we look at other cosmic structures of the Universe such as voids. In this colloquium\, I explore the information beyond the galaxy positions in large sky surveys combining novel ideas with recent techniques in statistical methods and machine learning algorithms. In particular\, we will investigate the following two topics: the \"cosmic web\" that are mostly ignored in any large scale structure analyses in the Universe and how it affects the surrounding galaxies\; and \"likelihood free analysis\" with machine learning.

Aberrant protein glycosylation is directly related to human disease\, including cancer and infectious diseases\, and glycoproteins contain a wealth of information related to developmental and disease statuses of cells. However\, due to the low abundance of many glycoproteins and heterogeneity of glycans\, it is extraordinarily challenging to comprehensively analyze glycoproteins in complex biological samples. Based on the common features of glycans\, we have developed chemical and enzymatic methods to globally analyze protein glycosylation by mass spectrometry (MS). Glycoproteins located on the cell surface are especially interesting because they frequently regulate extracellular events. We specifically tagged surface glycoproteins for global and site-specific analysis. In combination with multiplexed proteomics\, we quantified the dynamics of surface glycoproteins and measured their half-lives. Global analysis of protein glycosylation leads to a better understanding of glycoprotein functions and the identification of glycoproteins as disease biomarkers and drug targets.\nRonghu Wu (Georgia Institute of Technology) UID:39683-8241164@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/39683 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Chemistry,Science LOCATION:Chemistry Dow Lab - CHEM 1640 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20170405T181649 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20170405T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20170405T170000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Financial/Actuarial Mathematics DESCRIPTION:We consider a market of a given vector of securities and finitely many financial agents\, who are heterogeneous with respect to their risky endowments and risk aversions. The market is assumed to be thin\, meaning that each agent's actions could heavily influence the price and allocation of the securities. We propose a market model where agents strategically choose the risk aversion that they will implement in the trading. In this environment\, equilibrium is modelled as the outcome of a Nash-type game (in the spirit of Kyle\, 1989)\, where the agents' sets of strategic choices are the demand functions on the tradeable securities. \n\nUnder standard assumptions\, we first show that the agents have motive to declare different risk aversions than their true ones\, and in particular\, when the correlation between an agent's endowment and the market risk is low (resp. high)\, the agent tends to behave in a more (resp. less) risk averse manner. The Nash equilibrium is then characterized as a solution to a system of quadratic equations\, which is shown to have a unique solution under some mild additional assumptions. \n\nInterestingly enough\, it is shown that agents with higher exposure to market risk and/or sufficiently low (true) risk aversion profit more from the Nash equilibrium as compared to the Arrow-Debreu one (i.e.\, with no strategic behavior). Finally\, we connect the findings of this work to similar results provided in recently established models where agents strategically choose their reported beliefs and their submitted risk exposures. \n\nThis is joint work with C. Kardaras (LSE) and G. Vichos (LSE).\n\n Speaker(s): Michalis Anthropelos (University of Piraeus) UID:32011-4490260@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/32011 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Mathematics LOCATION:East Hall - 1360 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20170404T122307 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20170405T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20170405T173000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Interdisciplinary Seminar in Quantitative Economics (ISQM): The Longitudinal Intergenerational Family Electronic Micro-Database (LIFE-M) Project DESCRIPTION:BIO: Martha J.

To that end\, we document signicant changes in the capital share after large political events\, such as the end of dictatorships\, political realignments\, or modications in collective bargaining rules in a sample of developed and emerging economies. These policy changes are often associated with significant fluctuations in output and asset prices. We also show\, using a Bayesian Proxy-VAR estimated with U.S. data\, how distribution shocks cause movements in output\, unemployment\, and asset pricing. To quantify the importance of these political shocks for the U.S.\, we extend an otherwise standard neoclassical growth model. We model political shocks as exogenous changes in the bargaining power of workers in a labor market with search and matching. We calibrate the model to the U.S. corporate non-nancial business sector. A one-standard deviation redistribution shock reduces the capital share 0.2% on impact and leads to a drop in output of 0.6%. Also\, political distribution risk accounts for 35 to 45% of output volatility and 15 to 25% of the observed volatility of U.S. gross capital shares\, depending on the elasticity of substitution between capital and labor. Eliminating political redistribution risk in the U.S. would raise the welfare of the representative household by 1.6% of steady-state consumption.

This presentation starts with a short yet instructive tale of Monosodium Glutamate or MSG: despite the discovery of the substance by a Japanese chemist in 1908\, it was actually the commodification of Chinese nationalism through MSG by patriotic capitalists in China that\, to this day\, makes the average consumer associate the flavor enhancer with China rather than Japan. This sets the stage for not only introducing the idea of consuming (and producing) identity\, but also what it means to conceive of nationalism as a practice or a sustained process rather than a singular emotion or feeling. By introducing some of the commodification activities surrounding the territorial disputes among countries in Northeast Asia—both in terms of consumables and non-consumables—this presentation will showcase the close connection between politics and economics\, and also challenge some of the traditional assumptions behind nationalism. \n \nJiun Bang is a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Nam Center for Korean Studies at the University of Michigan. Her doctoral project examined the ‘business of nationalism’ and explained how the process of commodification undertaken by various actors within the nation-state influences bilateral inter-state tensions. From 2008 to 2010\, she was an associate at the Korea Institute for Defense Analyses (KIDA)\, a government-affiliated research institute in Seoul. During that time\, she was the assistant editor of the Korean Journal of Defense Analysis.

He will talk about the theoretical\, historical and symbolic premises of the project from its beginning eight years ago\, and pay particular attention to the transformation of these ideas over time. The lecture will address conceptual problems of defining ‘diasporic Hebrew.’ Namely\, it will be inquired whether ‘diasopric Hebrew’ can be defined in positive terms\, or must rather rely\, conceptually\, on the existence of a ‘non-‘ or an ‘anti-Diasporic Hebrew’. More practically\, the lecture will explore what it means to write Hebrew “diasporically”\, also from a linguistic point of view. Finally\, Hever-Chybowski will expose the ways in which the concept of “World Hebrew” may offer new theoretical possibilites by adding temporality to the spatial definition of ‘Diasporic Hebrew’.

Millions of square meters of housing have been built\, testing to the limit the soviet traditional prefabrication model. The microrayon heritage has been explored and re-evaluated.

In her book “The Residence” she interviewed scores of former maids\, butlers\, cooks\, and ushers who worked at the White House and who see sides of the first family no one else ever glimpses. “The Residence” marks the first time that so many have shared what it’s like to devote their lives to caring for the first family.\n\nIn “First Women” Brower used interviews with three former first ladies\, along with the children\, friends\, and social secretaries of the modern first ladies to explore one of the most under-estimated and challenging jobs in the world. From Jackie Kennedy to Michelle Obama she considered the first lady’s intimidating job assignment: to be an inspiring leader with a forward-thinking agenda of her own\; to be a savvy politician skilled at navigating the treacherous rapids of Washington\; and to be a wife and mother operating under constant scrutiny.\n\nFree Admission.
