DESCRIPTION:The LSA Honor Council is an undergraduate student organization dedicated to developing initiatives that aid in the promotion of respect\, integrity\, and personal responsibility. We also attend meetings hosted by the Office of Student Academic Affairs for students accused of academic misconduct.   In our recruitment efforts\, we prioritize the importance of forming a council composed of individuals with diverse backgrounds and viewpoints. This spectrum of varied perspectives enables our council to more effectively address issues of integrity on our campus. This upcoming year\, we are recruiting a group of motivated and dedicated LSA students who are interested in working closely with the deans\, faculty\, and fellow students to promote a campus culture that values integrity. This past year\, we have accomplished this goal by hosting faculty department presentations\, tabling events\, and discussions of current ethical issues. Most recently\, we hosted Dr. Victor Strecher from the School of Public Health to present a talk on “Designing a Happy Life.” Given the breadth of our activities\, it is crucial that we incorporate students with diverse skill sets to maximize our council’s potential. We hope that you will join us next fall! Link to application: http://lsastudenthc.weebly.com/become-a-member.html UID:42259-10129576@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/42259 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES: LOCATION:University of Michigan CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20171214T122804 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20170920T080000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20170920T230000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Creating a Campus: A Cartographic Celebration of U-M's Bicentennial DESCRIPTION:Learn about the campus’ history and architecture and explore the campus that might have been. In honor of the University of Michigan’s bicentennial\, we highlight the U-M Ann Arbor campus\, both before its creation and throughout its continuous evolution.

What makes a university public? What should it look like? Whom should it serve? Who should have access to its resources\, and where should those resources come from?\n\nThis exhibit explores how students\, faculty\, staff\, politicians\, and citizens have attempted to answer these questions. These stories invite us to imagine U-M's future as a public university based on what we know about its past.\n\nExhibit team: Jonathan Farr\, Nora Krinitsky\, Michelle McClellan\, Gregory Parker\, Emily Price\, Kate Silbert\n\nThis LSA Bicentennial Theme Semester exhibit is presented with support from the College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

In November 2016\, following a trip to Mexico\, birds unexpectedly started migrating to her canvases and an entirely new body of work began to take shape. The current exhibit\, Flights of Fancy\, features birds in colorful\, light-filled works. The birds represent the lightness she associates with qualities of joy\, hope\, healing and inspiration she sees as a source of personal well-being.

Steve is a fine art photographer\, and Ann is a textile artist. After exhibiting some of Ann’s textile designs inspired by Steve’s photography\, they had the idea to create works that morph a photograph into a textile. One aspect of the process is that it can trick the viewer into questioning what they are seeing and invite them to engage more with the work. Northwood Awakening\, a 25 by 5 foot piece that was the ArtPrize 2015 Public Vote Grand Prize winner\, will be on display.

Cavanagh’s work consists primarily of cut paper and mixed media. Working with these materials allows her to approach her work in much the same way a sculptor does: adding to and cutting away from. Cavanagh finds the artistic process to be deeply meditative. Cavanagh lives and has her studio in a historic home in downtown Rochester\, Michigan.

These images represent an intersection of information as well as ideas of cultural appropriation\, assimilation\, fragmentation and alteration. Crotchett uses wax because it is relevant to both eastern and early western artistic cultures. A professional artist for over 30 years\, Crotchett has exhibited nationally and internationally. She is a professor at Western Michigan University and lives in Kalamazoo\, Michigan.

Potter’s teaching helps with that\, but he also shows his paintings in art fairs\, galleries and even Army barrack walls\, anywhere people enjoy art and laughing out loud. A flightless bird\, his flamingo isn’t deep or subversive\, but it does have a top hat and is riding on the back of a zebra that is standing in a nest powered by a propeller. Nothing unusual for a man who served four tours in the Middle East. Working in his home gallery in Franklin\, Indiana\, he is amused as viewers sometimes see his animals as “above all the B.S.” or “leaving without knowing where [they’re] going.” UID:43032-9696863@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/43032 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Children,Culture,Exhibition,Family,Free,Health & Wellness LOCATION:University Hospitals - Comprehensive Cancer Center, Level 1 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20170726T152806 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20170920T080000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20170920T210000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Michigan Past & Present DESCRIPTION:Profiles of U-M’s first six students\, and the two faculty who taught them\, and how they compare to the university of 2017.

After disposing (selling\, recycling\, giving away) of everything that no longer served to enrich her life\, Schlesinger decided to merge this exercise with her art practice and depicted all of her remaining possessions in small oil paintings\, 380 in total. The paintings depict objects of functionality and ones of beauty\, eliciting contemplation and conversation about the ‘stuff’ we choose to live with.

While Ann Arbor may seem far removed from Detroit\, the themes of 1967—housing segregation\, media bias\, student activism\, and police violence—resonated here as well. \n\nThis exhibit\, on display in the Hatcher Graduate Library North lobby through September 15\, 2017\, highlights the extensive archival resources of the Bentley Historical Library and the U-M Library’s Labadie Collection. These materials place the rebellion in the context of 1960s activism against racism and inequality in Detroit and Ann Arbor\, and illustrate the significance and range of press coverage.

Inspired by the academic classifications invented by 19th-century Michigan Chief Justice Augustus B. Woodward\, this new\, architecturally scaled installation serves as an archive of the original\, and presents a single room with thirteen plastic sculptures\, each representing one of Woodward’s professorships. As viewers peer into the space and encounter these illuminated objects—reproduced using 3D imaging technology from original objects Dion found in departments and collections across the University of Michigan—they confront questions about the distinction between the rational and subjective in our construction of knowledge\, as well as role of the museum and institutions that continue to determine it.\n\nAbout the artist: Mark Dion’s work examines the ways in which dominant ideologies and public institutions shape our understanding of history\, knowledge\, and the natural world. “The job of the artist\,” he says\, “is to go against the grain of dominant culture\, to challenge perception and convention.” Appropriating archaeological\, field ecology\, and other scientific methods of collecting\, ordering\, and exhibiting objects\, Dion creates works that question the distinctions between ‘objective’ (‘rational’) scientific methods and ‘subjective’ (‘irrational’) influences. Mark Dion questions the objectivity and authoritative role of the scientific voice in contemporary society\, tracking how pseudo-science\, social agendas\, and ideology creep into public discourse and knowledge production.\n\nImage: Mark DION\nWaiting for the\nExtraordinary\n2013\nmixed media\n96 x 61 x 122\ninches\; 243.8 x\n154.9 x 309.9 cm\nCourtesy the artist\nand Tanya Bonakdar\nGallery\, New York UID:42127-9560411@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/42127 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Bicentennial,Exhibition,History,Visual Arts LOCATION:202 S.

In 1517\, Martin Luther\, a professor of theology and a monk\, published his scathing critique of indulgences\, a church practice that allowed Christians to buy off time from suffering for one’s sins in the afterlife.\n\nIssued in the provincial town of Wittenberg\, Luther's call for academic debate and reform unleashed a series of events that led to the break-up of Latin Christianity. The Reformations that followed forever altered the lives of those in early modern Europe and beyond.\n\nThe late medieval German lands teemed with innovation. Novel forms of piety emerged\, the demand for practical learning grew\, more universities competed for students\, and wealth from both trade and mining transformed social relations. The dissemination of texts and ideas on an industrial scale via the printing press reshaped communication\, knowledge\, and belief. In this context\, reform—the renewal of a lost standard of the past in the present—became a battle-cry for religious\, economic\, and political change.\n\nAudubon Room hours: Monday-Friday 8:30am-6:00pm\, Saturday 10:00am-6:00pm\, Sunday 1:00-6:00pm UID:42280-9593328@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/42280 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Free,Library,Literature LOCATION:Hatcher Graduate Library - Audubon Room CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20171005T063023 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20170920T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20170920T120000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:ALA 375 DESCRIPTION:This is a closed session for the students of ALA 375.

Titled Cosmogonic Tattoos\, his project will use adhesive vinyl images applied in saturated colors to windows in the two buildings\, highlighting the role of these museums in the life of our campus community. Through close examination of objects separated from us by deep chronological and cultural divides\, imaginatively transformed within our campus context\, this project celebrates the power of architecture\, ornament\, and material objects to shape knowledge\, historical memory\, and cultural identity. \n\nLook for displays in the UMMA from April 22-Dec. 3\, the exterior of the Kelsey Museum from June 2-Dec. 17\, and in the interior special exhibition space of the Kelsey Museum from June 2-Sept. 10.\n\nFor information on-the-go about this event and all other Bicentennial happenings\, download our free mobile app: http://guidebook.com/g/umich200.

Born in India and educated in the U.S.\, Correa earned a B. Arch. at the University of Michigan in 1953 and went on to receive his M.Arch. at MIT.\nOver a prolific career spanning six decades\, Charles Correa’s architecture\, urban design\, planning\, and writings inspired generations\, adapting the international language of modernism to the Indian context.. This exhibition\, organized by Nondita Correa Mehrotra\, the director of the Charles Correa Foundation\, explores the breadth of his built work\, through highlighting thirteen selected projects.

For this visionary project\, the artist will adhere a procession of vivid images to the glass walls of the museums in a rhythmically evocative narrative\, based on reassembled fragments from a diverse range of artworks in both museums’ permanent collections. The juxtaposed images will address our shared histories and experiences while connecting the viewer to the origins and meaning of objects and their power to shape knowledge\, memory\, and identity. By leveraging the buildings’ unique architecture\, the artist expands our understanding of a museum as a cultural repository and highlights the significant role of these institutions in the life of the campus community.\nCosmogonic Tattoos is on view at UMMA April 22 through December 3\, 2017 and at the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology from June 2 through December 17\, 2017.\nLead support for Cosmogonic Tattoos is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost.

The exhibition features images of sleek and poised female models and celebrities destined for the glossy pages of fashion magazines and catalogs by leading photographers such as Edward Steichen\, Philippe Halsman\, Helmut Newton\, Andy Warhol\, and Guy Bourdin. Outside of commercial advertising practice\, documentary photographers Elliott Erwitt\, Joel Meyerowitz\, and Ralph Gibson portray candid images of fashionable women on city streets and mannequins in shop windows\, resulting in intriguing juxtapositions of haute couture and everyday life. And\nartists James Van Der Zee\, Eduardo Paolozzi\, and Nikki S. Lee employ the visual strategies of traditional fashion photography\, while offering alternative narratives to mainstream notions of female beauty.\n\nLead support for Gloss: Modeling Beauty is provided by Bank of America and Merrill Lynch.

In the video Towards An Architect\, Hannu Karjalainen portrays a fictional architect who is experiencing the response of people living in the structures he designed. Daniel Rozin’s Mirror No. 10 is driven by software\, written by the artist\, that generates a real-time reflection of the environment the screen is displayed in—specifically a live sketch of the viewer approaching the frame. Mesocosm (Northumberland\, UK) is an algorithmic work by Marina Zurkow that depicts the passage of time on the moors of Northeast England.\n\nMoving Image: Portraiture is the third of three exhibitions drawn from the collection of the Borusan Contemporary\, Istanbul\, which since 2011 has been focused on media arts. The works in this series address both formal concerns and conceptual topics\; many represent traditional categories such as portraiture and landscape that find new resonance when explored through the strategies of dynamic technology.\n\nLead support for Moving Image: Portraiture is provided by the 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.

At their summits were a select few—kings and chiefs whose authority was derived from their direct connection to powerful ancestors and predecessors. These rulers were wrapped in expensive textiles or costly furs\, and covered in beads and precious metals\, materials that not only signaled their extraordinary status\, but were also intended to safely contain the great power they wielded. The famous minkisi (meaning “power figure”) sculptures of Central Africa were similarly activated through the addition of charged materials. Textiles\, animal skin\, metal\, and beads allowed the lifeless wooden carvings to be activated by local spiritual leaders in order to communicate with the realm of the ancestors and spirits. This exhibition explores the parallels between the adornment of the king’s physical body and minkisi. Drawing on works from UMMA’s collection and several loans\, the exhibition demonstrates how authority was expressed and power contained across a range of historical cultures in Nigeria\, Ghana\, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Cameroon.\n\nLead support for Power Contained: The Art of Authority in Central and West Africa is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the African Studies Center.

Problematizing Populism: The Polish Radical Right and the Return of National Communism DESCRIPTION:It’s easy to be confused by the rhetoric of the current political struggle in Poland. On the one hand\, the ruling party presents itself as the most uncompromising opponent of communism and its legacy\, but on the other hand\, many liberal critics see a resurrection of the communist state. Although these two claims seem mutually exclusive\, both are partly correct. The current government’s ostentatious Catholicism\, as well as its glorification of the armed resistance to the Soviet Union in the late 1940s would not suggest hidden communist sympathies. But just below the surface of this undeniable anticommunism\, the current government has indeed perpetuated a strand of Polish politics with roots stretching back to the period before 1989. Recognizing this historical context not only helps us understand the current regime\, but retrospectively casts a new light on the whole postwar era. \n\nBrian Porter-Szűcs is an Arthur F. Thurnau Professor of History at the University of Michigan\, Ann Arbor\, where he has taught since 1994. He is the author of several books including: \"Poland and the Modern World: Beyond Martyrdom\" (Wiley Blackwell\, 2014) and \"Faith and Fatherland: Catholicism\, Modernity\, and Poland\" (Oxford UP\, 2010)\, which won the Kulczycki Book Prize from the Association for Slavic\, East European\, and Eurasian Studies (2012).

Explicit constructions of these solutions are based on configurations of branes puffed up by the supertube effect. In an appropriate duality frame\, we can construct the simplest supertube by adding momentum to a symmetric distribution of NS5 branes on their Coulomb branch. This suggests an exact worldsheet description of the supertube as a null gauged Wess-Zumino-Witten model. Such exact treatment in worldsheet string theory also describes BPS and non-BPS three-charge microstate geometries. This construction reveals stringy structures that are invisibile in the supergravity approximation\, and that play a crucial role in understanding the constituents that carry most of the entropy.

The Song dynasty tradition of singing ci songs is now lost\, but since mid-Qing\, there is a tradition of avocational performers singing ci songs with kunqu or operatic vocal styles. This lecture introduces this performance tradition by clarifying differences between commercial performers (xigong) and non-commercial performers (qinggong) in the context of their artistic preferences\, social functions\, and repertories.\n\nProfessor Zhou Qin is a professor at Suzhou University\, as well as the associate director of the Kunqu Research Center of China\, the associate director of the Chinese Association of Kunqu and Gunqin Research\, and a researcher at the Research Center of Jiangsu History and Culture. He was the principal coach for traditional singing and chanting practices for Peony Pavilion\, the Young Lover’s Edition (2004). Currently\, he hosts and teaches Kunqu yishu (The Art of Kunqu)\, a nation-wide online course in China. Devoted to promoting kunqu domestically and internationally\, Professor Zhou has extensively toured China\, Hong Kong\, Taiwan\, Germany\, France\, Japan\, and the US. In 2004\, the Suzhou municipal government awarded him a prize to acknowledge his efforts of preserving kunqu. In 2009\, the Cultural Ministry honored him as a distinguished researcher on kunqu theory and history. Professor Zhou has published Cunxin shuwu qupu (Annotated Anthology of Kunqu Aria from the Cunxin Studio)\, Suzhou kunqu (Kunqu in Suzhou)\, Kunxi jicun (A Collection of Preserved Kunqu Scripts)\, and Fengying wunong (Five Kunqu Scripts).

DESCRIPTION:The 2017 Atlantic Hurricane season has produced incredibly destructive storms\, and has raised many questions. What drives a hurricane? How accurate are hurricane models? How do authorities prepare for hurricanes and\, when destructive events like Hurricanes Harvey and Irma happen\, how do we respond? Is this hurricane season a fluke\, or should we start planning for more/similar storms? In this Teach-Out\, we will explore the science of hurricanes\, hurricane forecasting and monitoring\, and with what confidence can we attribute these storms to a warming ocean.\n\nTeach-Outs are short learning experiences\, each focused on a specific current issue. Attendees will come together over a few days not only to learn about a subject or event but also to gain skills. Teach-Outs are open to the world and are designed to bring together individuals with wide-ranging perspectives in respectful and deep conversation. These events are an opportunity for diverse learners and a multitude of experts to come together to ask questions of one another and explore new solutions to the pressing concerns of our global community.

There will be an exhibition reception on Friday\, September 8 from 6-8 pm. The exhibition and reception are free and open to the public.\n\nCo-curated by Gaëtane Verna\, Director of The Power Plant\, and Mark Sealy\, The Unfinished Conversation is grounded in the work of cultural theorist Stuart Hall (1932-2014)\, who devoted his life to studying the interweaving threads of culture\, power\, politics\, and history. \n\nTaking Hall’s essay Encoding and Decoding in the Television Discourse as a point of departure\, viewers will be invited to think about how meaning is constructed\; how it is systematically distorted by audience reception\; and how it can be detached and drained of its original intent to produce specific or slanted narratives. Hall’s interdisciplinary approach drew on literary theory\, linguistics\, and cultural anthropology in order to analyse and articulate the relationship between history\, culture\, popular media\, cold war politics\, gender\, and ethnicity.\n\nBy presenting the work of artists who bring into play time\, memory\, and archives so as to construct new readings of the past\, the exhibition will lay emphasis on the idea that the “visual” is an assimilatory process continuously at work in the construction of cultural\, political\, personal\, and national identities.\n\nCo-curators Gaëtane Verna and Mark Sealy state that it is their curatorial intention to build a multiple moving/still/audio archive\, an image map\, a visual vehicle that will ferry the audience across the choppy waters of memory\, images\, and politics to an undeterminable\, obscure\, and un-chartable destination\, where people often meet with a fatal end. The exhibition aims to take viewers on a journey in time\, to bring them to encounter images\, which act as both objects of art and ideas in flux\, circulating in and out of the archive through the corridors of cultural re-construction.\n\nThis image map will be drawn by the work of Terry Adkins\, John Akomfrah\, Shelagh Keeley and Zineb Sedira\, four artists whose practice is devoted primarily to commenting on recent socio-political events and situations and relating them to the not so distant past in order to help us understand the world we live in.\n\nBy stimulating our personal and collective memory\, these works will show us how history agitates and causes anxiety in our personal lives and in the political realm as they will reveal the fact that national identity is not an essence or a state of being\, but a “becoming\,” a process whereby subjectivities are formed in the interstices between such binary oppositions as us/them\, black/white\, or native/foreigner\, and that it is in those in-between spaces that marginalized people are the agents and subjects of many possible futures\, imagined or real.\n\nThe thread that connects all these art works is the artist’s involvement with the significant social issues confronting humanity today and their profound desire to push formal boundaries in order to tackle them.\n\nThe Unfinished Conversation: Encoding/Decoding is organized and circulated by The Power Plant Contemporary Art Gallery\, Toronto in partnership with Autograph ABP\, London. The exhibition is co-curated by Gaëtane Verna\, Director\, The Power Plant and Mark Sealy\, Director\, Autograph ABP.\n\nPhoto by Toni Hafkenscheid.

Division St.\, Ann Arbor)\, Vital Signs for a New America is a group exhibition including work by Dylan Miner\, Sheryl Oring\, and the performance collective The Hinterlands. There will be an exhibition reception on Friday\, September 8 from 6-8 pm. The exhibition and reception are free and open to the public.\n\nCurated by Srimoyee Mitra\, Vital Signs for a New America uses a range of meaningful and compelling of community-engaged approaches to invite the public to join Miner\, Oring\, and The Hinterlands in speaking out and sharing stories\; listening and re-learning\; and remembering the past to imagine new possibilities for the future.\n\nActive public engagement is at the heart of Vital Signs for a New America. Each work on view in this group exhibition offers opportunities to interact directly with the artists and their art. As part of the exhibition programming\, the gallery will become a common space for storytelling and tea drinking with Dylan Miner\; a bustling executive assistant’s office with Sheryl Oring\; and a tactile\, expansive personal archive with the performance collective The Hinterlands. Vital Signs invites the public to speak out\, listen\, and imagine new models for inclusive futures.\n\nDylan Miner: Elders Say We Don’t Visit Anymore\nSaturdays\, September 9-October 14\, 1-3 pm\n\nDylan Miner\, Director of American Indian and Indigenous Studies at Michigan State University\, is an artist\, activist\, and scholar. Miner identifies as a Wiisaakodewinini (Métis)\, the Ojibwe designation for a Native male of mixed ancestry. While conducting an oral history project with retired Anishinaabe autoworkers\, elders shared the idea that “we don’t visit as much as we used to” due to the limitations of urbanizations\, wage labor\, and settler colonialism to name a few. In response\, Miner was inspired to explore the methodology of visiting with an art gallery or museum context. Elders Say We Don’t Visit Anymore is a creative action where the public is invited to share tea and conversation with the artist\, creating new friendships and maintaining social relationships within a specific time and place.\n\nSheryl Oring: I Wish to Say \nFriday\, September 8\, 5-6.30 pm and 7-8 pm (two engagements)\nFridays\, September 15-October 13\, 5-7 pm\n\nNationally renowned artist Sheryl Oring’s belief in the value of free expression guaranteed by the American constitution propelled her to initiate I Wish to Say (2004-ongoing)\, a public platform that invites people to voice their concerns about the state-of-affairs in the country to the President of America. For this project\, Oring sets up a portable public office — complete with a manual typewriter — and invites viewers to dictate postcards to the President of the United States\, prompting with a simple phrase: “Do you have a message for the president?” Over the last decade\, Oring has toured this project across the country and more than 3\,000 postcards have been mailed to the White House. Taking place for the first time in Michigan\, Oring will be working with students and volunteers at the Stamps Gallery and in the city of Ann Arbor to spark dialogues not just among artists and academics but also among the diverse public of Ann Arbor on their notes to the President.\n\nThe Hinterlands: The Radicalization Process Papers \nTuesday\, October 3\, 6-7.30pm: History is a Living Weapon (performance)\n\nThe Hinterlands delve into the past to remember and re-learn the cultural memories and collective histories of Detroit and Ann Arbor. A collection of boxes is discovered in the basement of a house on the border of Detroit and Hamtramck. In them\, a rich personal archive of publication clippings\, which appear to chronicle radical U.S. histories of the 60s and 70s. Using the archive as a performative platform\, the artists invite audiences to engage with the materials contained in the boxes that blur the boundaries between fact and fiction\, real and imagined. The ephemera and memorabilia in the The Radicalization Process Papers takes audiences on a journey that navigates layers of historical accounts\, art\, politics\, and cultural artifacts and asks audiences to examine the assumptions of freedom and democracy in popular American culture. Created and compiled by The Hinterlands in collaboration with historian and poet Casey Rocheteau and designer Ben Gaydos.

In the marshaling of knowledge and expertise\, the greatest achievement of the University lies not in its continuity\, but in its ability to address the unforeseen. Drawing on the student work from the Taubman College Architecture Program\, “The Future Needs…Something Blue” addresses an idea of the future that lies not in the answers to questions we now know\, but in possibilities we are only now beginning to imagine. Sited at the Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning’s Liberty Research Annex\, the display is simultaneously shop window\, gallery\, and salon. Organized around a series of emergent themes it is an interactional space in which to view (in perspective\, parallax\, parallel\, and contrast) the multiple points of view that constitute the future.\n“The Future Needs…Something Blue” is curated by Associate Professor of Practice Julia McMorrough and Associate Professor John McMorrough of studioAPT (Architecture Practice Theory).\nOn Tuesday\, September 19 at 6:00pm there will be an opening reception at the Liberty Research Annex (305 W. Liberty St.\, Ann Arbor). Exhibition on view September 20 - October 29.

These plasmas are transient – the plasma is generated in times short compared to the equilibration of the plasma electron energy distribution. Transient plasmas substantially reduce ignition delay under a variety of engine and fuel/air conditions\, show promise for improving engine efficiency\, and efficiently reduce emissions from various sources. Results for studies of plasma enhancement of internal combustion and pulse detonation engines will be reviewed. Emissions remediation (e.g.\, NOx\, SOx\, and particulate reduction) have been obtained with ns plasmas\, and will also be reviewed. Transient plasmas for these applications typically require only small pulse energy (10 mJ to < 1 J) which significantly and beneficially affects energy efficiency. However\, they require fast rising rates (≤ns). The pulsed power technology used to generate these plasmas is therefore important and that technology will be reviewed.

Its America Eats project sought nothing less than to sample\, and report upon\, the tremendous range of foods eaten across the United States.\nDr. Camille Bégin shapes a cultural and sensory history of New Deal-era eating from the FWP archives\, describing in mouth-watering detail how Americans tasted their food. Bégin explores how likes and dislikes\, cravings and disgust operated within local sensory economies that she culls from the FWP's vivid descriptions\, visual cues\, culinary expectations\, recipes and accounts of restaurant meals.

And how would he combat popular forms of entertainment\, such as the \"useless\" songs and poetry that circulated in medieval Cilicia\, that had no didactic value at a time when he felt Christianity under siege from within and without? \n\nThis talk will examine the large body of riddles that Shnorhali composed in Middle Armenian\, which had only recently developed as a literary or poetic language. Although Shnorhali's poetic compositions in Classical Armenian depict an absolute opposition to the Islamicate world\, his riddles\, themselves riddled with Arabic and Persian loan words\, tell a more nuanced story. This story would have unfolded at wedding feasts and in wine taverns: boisterous affairs where riddle-reciters playfully teased\, corrected\, offered hints\, and guided their audience to seize upon a correct reading of ambiguous\, versified language. Such performances served as popular exercises in hermeneutics\, teaching an audience to extract hidden correspondences in the Book of the World. These riddles stand at the threshold of a broader sea-change in Armenian letters: a new poetics\, and a covert hermeneutics\, that would spread everywhere Armenians lived.\n\nMichael Pifer’s research and writing focus on the connective tissues that run through Armenian\, Persian\, and Turkish literary cultures\, particularly in medieval Anatolia\, but also beyond. He received his PhD in Comparative Literature from the University of Michigan in 2014\, which awarded him the ProQuest Distinguished Dissertation Award. His current book project\, tentatively titled \"Kindred Voices: A Literary History of Medieval Anatolia\, 1250-1350\,\" seeks to uncover shared cultures of poetic adaptation across Christian and Muslim communities in the pre-modern Mediterranean\, as well as to reexamine the manner in which we approach literary history today. This project was supported by a fellowship from the National Endowment for the Humanities in 2016-17.\n\nPhoto: Nerses Shnorhali instructing his student. Matenadaran\, Yerevan\, Ms. 7046.

This is evident in many condensed matter systems\, where the interplay of many degrees of freedom leads to the emergence of theoretically interesting and practically useful quantum phases such as superconductivity\, charge order\, and magnetism. Because of the absence of small parameters and the large number of degrees of freedom\, understanding these phases with traditional tools of many-body theory has proven to be challenging. This talk will show how numerical methods can be used to simulate strongly correlated quantum systems and explore the connections to simple analytical theories and experiment. In particular\, we will show quantitative simulations for lattice model systems and their comparison to ultracold atomic gas experiment\, and an analysis of the interplay between superconductivity and the so-called pseudogap phase in high-temperature superconducting materials.\n\n UID:42183-9584871@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/42183 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Physics,Science LOCATION:West Hall - 340 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20171005T123029 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20170920T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20170920T173000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:EXCEL Talk: Christian Doyle & Maggie Ferguson-Wagstaffe DESCRIPTION:Join EXCEL for a discussion on independent film production with Christian Doyle & Maggie Ferguson-Wagstaffe.

The confidence sets are based on an initially selected model and two additional models which enlarge the initial model. We apply the procedure in two empirical examples: estimating heterogeneous treatment effects in a job training program and estimating profitability from an estimated mailing strategy in a marketing campaign. We also illustrate the procedure’s performance through simulation experiments.\n\nBIO: Christian B. Hansen studies applied and theoretical econometrics\, the uses of high-dimensional statistical methods in economic applications\, estimation of panel data models\, quantile regression\, and weak instruments. In 2008\, Hansen was named a Neubauer Family Faculty Fellow\, and he was named the Wallace W. Booth professorship in 2014. Hansen's recent research has focused on the uses of high-dimensional data and methods in economics applications. The papers “Sparse Models and Methods for Optimal Instruments with an Application to Eminent Domain” with A. Belloni\, D. Chen\, and V. Chernzhukov (Econometrica\, 2012) and “Inference on Treatment Effects after Selection amongst High-Dimensional Controls” with A. Belloni and V. Chernozhukov (Review of Economic Studies\, 2014) present approaches to estimating structural or treatment effects from economic data in canonical instrumental variables and treatment effects models. These papers are extended in “Valid Post-Selection and Post-Regularization Inference: An Elementary\, General Approach” with V. Chernozhukov and M. Spindler (Annual Review of Economics\, 2015) and the forthcoming papers “Inference in High Dimensional Panel Models with an Application to Gun Control” with A. Belloni\, V. Chernozhukov\, and D. Kozbur (Journal of Business and Economic Statistics) and “Program Evaluation with High-Dimensional Data” with A. Belloni\, V. Chernozhukov\, and I. Fernández-Val (Econometrica). \n\nHansen has published articles regarding identification and estimation in panel data models\, inference with data that may be spatially and temporally dependent\, quantile regression\, and instrumental variables models with weak or many instruments. His published work has appeared in several journals including Econometrica\, the Journal of Business and Economic Statistics\, the Journal of Econometrics\, and the Review of Economics and Statistics. He graduated from Brigham Young University with a bachelor's degree in economics in 2000. In 2004\, he received a PhD in economics from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology\, where he was a graduate research fellow of the National Science Foundation. He joined the Chicago Booth faculty in 2004.

In areas with higher levels of these local ties\, migration is less responsive to changes in local labor demand. Across a wide class of models of spatial equilibrium\, lower migration elasticities make subsidies to local areas more efficient\, since they change fewer people's locations. These two facts suggest that subsidies to areas with a declining populations are more efficient than subsidies to other areas. A parametric model illustrates how local ties develop in areas with declining populations\, and provides a mechanism that reallocates people's local ties to reflect changing economic geography. Areas with declining population house mostly people who were born locally\, since these people are willing to endure the lower wages\, lower amenities\, and higher rents that go along with a declining population. People outside are reluctant to move in after small changes in wages\, since real wages are well below national averages. The process of reallocating local ties takes several generations\, depending on the size of a shock.\n\nLink to the paper:\nhttp://mikezabek.com/pdf/LocalTies.pdf\n\nWe hope to see you there!

This is focusing welcome attention on CS curriculum design: what do we teach\, and to whom. The first response to “rising-tide” demand is to go “deep”: more majors\, courses\, more classroom seats\, etc. I will argue this is necessary\, but not sufficient. Many students need a solid base of computing+data to address challenges in social science\, humanities\, policy\, business\, and the like. But they do not aspire to be computer (or even data) scientists. We need a systematic middle way to take CS “wide” into these diverse disciplines. The University of Illinois CS+X program is a portfolio of novel B.S. degrees\, launched in 2014\, architected as (Half-CS + Half-X)\, delivered as a degree in the Dept. of X. Several degrees are now on offer\, ranging from CS+Anthropology to CS+Astronomy. The program has surprising traction – for example\, one quarter of our Astronomy Dept. is now CS+X\, and a dozen more +X degrees are in various stages of design/approval. I’ll talk about how we built the Illinois CS+X program\, and where it’s going next. I’ll also briefly summarize a related initiative\, the Illinois CS Data Science MS degree\, now being delivered on the Coursera MOOC platform.
