In the early years of the American Studio Glass Movement (1974-1984) Babcock’s sculptural and painterly expression utilized the vessel format. By layering color — both mass and line — between gathers of clear\, molten glass\, the full compositions are viewed through the vessel as three-dimensional. Babcock is Professor Emeritus\, College for Creative Studies. He was Section Chair of the Glass Department where he taught for 40 years. He lives in Ann Arbor and built a new studio near U-M north campus in 2016.

She is passionate about painting plein air (outdoors) whenever possible\, as she feels the direct observation from life is the best teacher to truly see the subtleties of light and color in nature. Working on sanded paper\, her process begins with a pastel and alcohol/mineral spirits under-painting wash to establish value and color. Soft pastel is applied in layers\, often in contrasting color and temperatures for vibrancy. Over her 35-year career in painting\, Will has won numerous national awards. She also operates a custom framing business from her home/studio in Washington Township and teaches occasional workshops.

Although most of their artwork is textile based\, members use many different techniques. The theme of this exhibit is Inspired\, and the art quilts on display incorporate elements of assemblage\, collage and painting. The exhibit showcases the round robin approach that guided the creation of the work: the first artist made something which inspired the work of the second artist\, which inspired the work of the third artist\, and so on. A brief statement about the inspiration is included with each piece.

His grandfather Arthur Desch stoked coal in steam engines before becoming a train engineer on the Jersey Central Line. At family gatherings in Chadwick’s grandparent’s home\, his aunts and cousins played music to the rhythms of the trains outside. From Junior Parker\, Elvis Presley\, Bob Dylan and Johnny Cash\, to arts writers and directors Greil Marcus and Jim Jarmusch\, the enduring mythos of America and its legacy has been wrapped up in the blues notes of the song “Mystery Train”. Chadwick’s current series of paintings\, Mystery Train\, is steeped in the powerful echoes of those machine days.

Alluding to feelings of pain\, otherness\, power and triumph\, \"she was here\, once\" features work that illustrates a moment of remembrance and reflection on the women who have roamed these spaces before us.\n\nIn summer 2018\, artist Nastassja Swift organized a collaborative workshop and public performance in her home city of Richmond\, Virginia. Using a range of choreographed movement\, sound\, and solidarity\, eight Black women and girls\, wearing large needle felted wool masks\, traced the ancestral footprints of the arrival of the Black body in Richmond. The 3.5 mile walk began in Shockoe Bottom (the site of the importation of slaves into Richmond\, and one of the largest sources of slave trade in America) and concluded in the Jackson Ward neighborhood (one of the largest Black communities in Richmond).\n\nThe multi-layered piece has produced a short film\, mini documentary\, photography\, and performance masks\, on display in her solo exhibition\, \"she was here\, once\" in Lane Hall.\n\nLane Hall Gallery is open to the public weekdays from 8am - 4pm. Class visits are encouraged.\n\nAccessibility: Ramp and elevator access at the E. Washington Street entrance (by the loading dock).

Although we often associate the Romans with white marble statues\, these statues — as well as Roman homes\, clothing\, and art — were vibrant with color. This exhibition examines colors in the ancient Roman world\, how these colors were produced\, where they were found\, what the Romans thought about them\, and how we study them today. We hope that visitors will think about what different colors mean to them\, and how these meanings compare to the roles of colors in the ancient Roman world.\n\nCurators: Catherine Person and Caroline Roberts\n\nView the online exhibition: http://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/ancient-color/ UID:59301-14728297@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/59301 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:AEM Featured,Archaeology,Classical Studies,Exhibition,Museum LOCATION:Kelsey Museum of Archaeology CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190115T140953 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190226T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190226T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Paved with Good Intentions DESCRIPTION:In keeping with artist David Opdyke’s previous work\, this site-specific installation serves as a critique of U.S. culture and politics. In an era of fake news and daily hyperbole\, Opdyke literally changes the picture by hand painting on 528 vintage postcards of well-known American landmarks and destinations. The postcards are assembled into a large mural--a vast gridded landscape beset by environmental chaos. Each card is placed to fit into the overall image\, and carefully modified with the gouache to show a realistically rendered piece of the overall turmoil.\n\nThe installation also features animated shorts and script-driven video\, which take place within the visual confines of one or more postcards. The animation is inspired\, in part\, by Terry Gilliam’s animation work on Monty Python’s \"Flying Circus\" and by the classical music sound effects in the Road Runner cartoons.\n\nAbout David Opdyke:\nDavid Opdyke is a draughtsman\, sculptor\, and animator known for his trenchant political send-ups of American culture. Born in Schenectady\, NY in 1969\, he graduated from the University of Cincinnati with a degree in painting and sculpture. His work is informed by the massive industrial and corporate restructuring he witnessed growing up\, namely the abandonment of the city center by manufacturing giants General Electric and ALCO. As GE shifted resources to neighboring Niskayuna\, the disparities became hard for Opdyke to ignore. Massive\, decaying factories\, an empty interstate loop\, and unemployment were downtown\; new streets\, expensive homes\, sushi and shopping malls were in the suburbs.\n\nFor 20 years Opdyke worked as a scenic painter and architectural model-maker. Ranging from intricate miniature constructions to room-sized installations\, his artwork explores globalization\, consumerism\, and civilization’s abusive relationship with the environment.\n\nThis project is supported by a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund.

His family settled in Grand Rapids\, Michigan after stays in both Japan and Iowa. After attending various universities around Michigan\, John took an education hiatus to work in a cannery in Alaska. It was there that he found his calling in the pages of American Craft while scouring the tables of free magazines at the Anchorage Public Library. He received his BFA (Furniture Design) from Northern Michigan University in 1996 and his MFA (Furniture Design) from Rhode Island School of Design in 2000. John teaches in the School of Art and Design at Eastern Michigan University. John has recently exhibited work at the Muskegon Museum of Art\, the Midland Center for the Arts\, the Grand Rapids Art Museum\, and the Marshall Fredericks Sculpture Museum. He lives in Ann Arbor and maintains a studio in his home.\n\n<<>><<>><<>> Householdments <<>><<>><<>><<>><<>>\nWhile I don’t literally remember my earliest childhood years in Japan where I was born\, I have over my lifetime\, stitched together memories based on home movies\, family photos\, and images from my imagination. I “remember” the aesthetics of the place - objects and environments carefully made in wood\, stone\, and steel. Without necessarily conscious of it at the time\, I was dimly aware of Japanese visual composition. Things around me held an inherent logic and beauty\, a perfection made possible by keen tools\, quality materials\, and proficient makers. This three-part integration was embedded early on and continues to affect my own ongoing pursuit in object making.\n\nWhile finding my way as a young maker\, I realized where I belonged mostly because of how various studios smelled. The ceramics studio was musty and dirty\, the metals studio was acrid and smoky\, but the wood studio had an earthy aroma. My kind of place. The tools immediately felt right as well. Chisels\, planes\, and knives when sharpened properly could manipulate the material in ways I never expected. While I was clearly not a natural talent\, I quickly realized that a little bit of tenacity goes a long way. I also realized that I loved the logic for how wood parts can fit together. To build a wooden object or a piece of furniture each part depends on the fit of others. I deeply appreciate this fitting togetherness – how doors fit\, how drawers fit\, how joints fit\, how hinges fit. It all makes sense\, and this sensibility carries through to what I’m doing today.\n\nWorking in wood typically requires a high degree of planning before actual construction\, and over time I realized I craved the ability to work with more spontaneity. The work in this show reflects my wish to keep the working process a bit more flexible and intuitive.\n\nWhen starting with a sketch that I believe has potential\, I now begin to build directly\, without drawings or maquettes. I’ll constantly assess what has been built and allow myself to alter it\, continue with it\, or get rid of it and start over. I’m more interested in seeing where this process takes me than I am in finishing something precisely as planned. This results in some playfulness and whimsy that I hope is reflected in this work.\n\nThe word Householdments is an old and obscure term without modern usage that refers to furniture or things we keep in our houses. It strikes me as an odd word but well fitted to describe the objects in this exhibit. The pieces in this show are a collection of my personal householdments.

DESCRIPTION:The Special Collections Research Center is excited to display a variety of nineteenth and twentieth century children's books made of cloth and related materials.\n\nThe market for children’s books expanded over the course of the nineteenth century\, as childhood mortality rates dropped and literacy rates rose. British and American publishers sought to create “indestructible” books that would appeal to the parents and teachers of very young children. Linen and muslin proved to be practical and appealing materials for such books\, which were usually printed with bright colors and comparatively little text.\n\nCloth books remained popular for almost a century before the cloth rationing of World War II shifted production towards heavy-duty paper substitutes\, such as “linenette.” UID:60543-14908119@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/60543 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Free,Library LOCATION:Hatcher Graduate Library - Special Collections, 6th Floor CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190214T094704 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190226T103000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190226T120000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:ISR Hackerspace with CPS faculty Christopher Fariss DESCRIPTION:Dr. Fariss is excited to host a weekly Tuesday morning hackerspace from February 12 until April 23. Dr. Fariss uses computational methods and the statistical program R to study why governments around the world torture\, maim\, and kill individuals within their jurisdiction\, and the processes monitors use to observe and document these abuses. Other research projects cover a broad array of themes but share a focus on computationally intensive methods\, research design\, and the analysis of data at a massive scale. \n\nThis weekly meeting with Dr. Fariss is for those with an interest in the R statistical programming language. Both beginners and experienced users are invited to attend. Dr. Fariss plans to introduce mostly introductory material during these sessions but will also cover Bayesian modeling in R and STAN.\n\nThe goal is to foster a diverse and inclusive hacking environment in which attendees can benefit from each other’s expertise. To participate\, hackers need to bring their own laptops and\, ideally\, have a chunk of code they are planning to work on unless they plan to assist and join others in their coding endeavors.

In the early 1970s\, that question was hotly debated as artists\, critics\, and the public grappled with the relationship between art\, politics\, race\, and feminism. Many of those debates centered on bringing to light the roles that gender and race played in how “great modern art” was defined and assessed\, and on employing art to advance civil rights. Within this discourse\, abstraction had an especially fraught role. To many\, the decision by women artists and artists of color to make abstract art seemed to represent a retreat from politics and protest: an abnegation of a commitment to civil rights and feminism. \"Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s\" presents large-scale work by four leading American artists—Helen Frankenthaler\, Sam Gilliam\, Al Loving\, and Louise Nevelson—who chose abstraction as a means of expression within the intense political climate of the early 1970s.\n\nLead support for \"Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s\" is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Institute for Research on Women and Gender. Additional generous support is provided by the Robert and Janet Miller Fund and the University of Michigan Department of Political Science.

For the first time\, The Mighty and the Mythic brings together three key projects — CareForce (2012– ongoing)\, Bibliobandido (2010–ongoing)\, and MIRROR | MASK (2017–ongoing) — that highlight her deep and meaningful collaborations with low-wage immigrants\, caregivers\, and youth. Jahn describes her use of play and humor as essential tools that enable her and her collaborators to portray their lives with dignity\, critique power\, and build momentum within their community. Jahn’s practice is deeply informed by her own experiences growing up as a second-generation immigrant of Chinese and Ecuadorian heritage. For Jahn home was not a fixed place but an adaptation itself. Her varied vocational past as a schoolteacher\, caretaker\, woodshop cleaner-upper\, lumber hauler\, community organizer\, and now university professor and mother informs the urgency in her work to find common ground between (her-)self and (an-)other\, through the concepts of care and empathy. Each of the works in this exhibition highlights her deep engagement with the stories of everyday people\, mundane routines\, and a desire to build an inclusive society. Marisa Morán Jahn: the Mighty and the Mythic celebrates and acknowledges the daily struggles and minor victories of the 99 percent that make up the spirit of our society in the twenty-first century.\n\nArtwork by Marisa Morán Jahn: The Driver (detail)\, from MIRROR | MASK series\, featuring Darlyne Komukama. 2017\, Uganda UID:59587-14754487@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/59587 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Activism,Art,Exhibition,immigration LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190214T113243 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190226T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190226T150000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Productiv Company Day DESCRIPTION:The ECRC is hosting a Company Day for Productiv on Tuesday\, February 26\, from 11:00 AM to 3:00 PM in the Duderstadt Connector.\n\nProductiv is an Accel-backed Series A company.

The risk posed by high fishing rates will increase as economic demand and per-capita fish consumption continue to rise. Considering both these ecological and economic realities is essential to developing long-term sustainable fishing strategies. By incorporating the dynamics of fishing effort into complex\, realistic network models of fishery ecosystems\, our research can more concretely ask: 1) How does food web structure drive the effect of fisheries on food webs and 2) How do different economic models affect the sustainability of fisheries?\n\nWhile we find that the initial direct effects on the biomass of the extracted species correlates with the level of fishing effort\, the longer term effects on overall food-web structure and community biomass depend upon the identity and connectivity of the species harvested. Intuitively\, the structural properties of the food-web itself feed back into the effects of different extraction rates. The additional complexity of variable fishing effort through different economic strategies makes clear the need to consider how to measure sustainability in transient oscillating systems when many traditional economic models concentrate on dynamic equilibrium.

The Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King\, whose legacy we commemorate as a critical figure in the advancement of civil rights and social justice\, is an alumnus of Morehouse College—an MSI. Implicit in Dr. King’s push for righteousness\, peace\, and justice was an immense desire to transform how people of a nation and ultimately the world engaged with one another. It is in this spirit that we frame this forum and engagement with Minority Serving Institutions—from transactional to transformational/transformative change. Featured speakers will provide a broad overview of the MSI landscape\, share their experiences with developing relationships with MSIs\, and share information on how to do an institutional self-assessment before seeking to partner with MSIs. This session will serve as the first in a series of forums that foster discussion on the socio-historical and contemporary state of MSIs\, insights from U-M units with relationships with MSIs\, and practical information and resources for engaging MSIs.\nPre-registration is required at https://myumi.ch/6njZn.

And there were the Church fathers\, the erudite humanists\, and the observations of itinerant chroniclers to consider too. Yet all this learning ultimately fell short\, suggesting rather than proving that in the first century a wing-footed apostle of Jesus had preached the gospel as far afield as Asia and the Americas. After a certain point -- for sixteenth- and seventeenth-century thinkers who embraced notions of divine omniscience\, a salvific vision for all humanity\, and thus of pristine evangelisation beyond the circum-Mediterranean -- a different kind of search was on\, indeed critical. The search for physical evidence\, for oral evidence\, and for the material traces and signs of an apostle. How would any such “new world” findings and sacred adventures be told?

These data can include genetic and epigenetic measures\, telomere length\, hormones\, brain scans\, clinical and inflammation markers\, just to name a few. Including biological data expands the reach and potential of social science studies by adding richer health-related content to the survey measures we collect. Researchers using biological data can identify early biomarkers of health conditions and disease\, elucidate the consequences of potentially harmful environmental exposures\, and discover the mechanisms by which the social context and our life experiences change us on a cellular level. The union of social and biological sciences helps build a stronger case for the importance of social science research.\nRefreshments provided!\n\nAll Welcome. Presented by the ISR DACCD Perspectives Committee.\n\nIf you need accommodations to participate in this event or have any questions\, please contact abeattie@umich.edu.\n\n\nBIOGRAPHY\n\nDr. Faul received her Ph.D. in Epidemiology from the University of Michigan. She is currently a Research Associate Scientist in the Survey Research Center\, a Co-PI of the Health and Retirement Study\, and is affiliated with the Michigan Center on the Demography of Aging (MiCDA)\, the Population Studies Center\, and the University of Michigan BioSocial Methods Collaborative. Her research focuses on socioeconomic predictors of health and health disparities across the life course\, specifically on dementia and cognitive decline in older age. She is interested in research and methods that integrate genetic and other biomarkers into social science research\, especially the interaction between genetics\, biomarkers and social environments on measures of health and well-being.\n\nDr. Mitchell is a Research Assistant Professor in the Survey Research Center\, the co-Director of the ISR Biospecimen Lab and the NIA course Genomics for Social Scientists (both with Dr. Faul)\, Associate Director of the Biosocial Methods Collaborative\, and research affiliate of the Population Studies Center and MiCDA. He leads the collection and analysis of the biological data for the Fragile Families and Child Wellbeing project. He has a broad background in sociology\, demography\, statistics\, genetics\, and molecular biology. His research utilizes population-based studies to examine how social contextual factors such as family instability\, poverty\, incarceration\, childhood trauma\, neighborhood characteristics\, and parenting interact with and influence genetic\, epigenetic\, neurodevelopment\, and telomere data and how those in turn predict later life health and wellbeing. He also has a line of research on the collection and analyses of biosocial data.

As an example of one application\, the site-selective oxidation of carbon-hydrogen bonds can be a powerful tool\, especially when applied to late-stage functionalization. Transition metal catalysis of site-selective C–H oxidation has rapidly advanced in recent years\, but there are nevertheless substantial challenges that remain with regards to achieving catalyst-controlled selectivity. Research in the Hilinski lab has focused on advancing organocatalysis as an alternative approach to transition metal catalysis of C–H functionalization\, in order to exploit its potential advantages and complementarity. In this presentation\, multiple approaches to organocatalytic C–H oxidation that have resulted in methods for C–H hydroxylation and the first organocatalytic method for C–H amination will be presented\, with a focus on catalyst design\, selectivity in complex settings\, and mechanism. More recently\, the lab’s focus on applications of catalytic heteroatom transfer has broadened to include other late-stage oxidations relevant to drug discovery (e.g. metabolic N-oxidation) and the discovery of novel cycloaddition reactions initiated by heteroatom transfer. Recent results in these areas will therefore also be presented\, with a focus on applications relevant to bioactive small molecule synthesis. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \nMichael Hilinski (University of Virgina) UID:52437-12717006@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/52437 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Chemistry,Science LOCATION:Chemistry Dow Lab CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190121T153518 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190226T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190226T173000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Rackham/Sweetland Workshops: Structuring Content DESCRIPTION:What kinds of arguments can you use a dissertation to make\, and how can you frame or position those arguments?

Such being the case\, only a small number of local craftsmen could expect to make a living from their skills in this sector when public building projects were not going on and not even such a lively center as Athens could accommodate a large number of builders on a permanent basis. As a result\, the construction industry was largely made up of travelling craftsmen\, plus the accessory contribution of some local workers who found employment in public building projects only as a subsidiary activity. In other words\, the crucial problem that any given city was facing when realizing building projects was not the lack of money but the widespread scarcity of skilled labor to do the job.\n\nHowever\, through a fresh re-examination of the Athenian building accounts of the 5th and 4th c. (e.g. IG I³ 475-476\; I.Eleusis 159 and 177)\, I intend to show that the traditional viewpoint needs to be revised. In particular\, the level of horizontal specialization attested in the accounts indicates that the demand for the services of workers whose trade was part of the construction industry (e.g. stonemasons\, carpenters\, brick masons\, etc.) was usually considerable\, even in years not characterized by a high density of public projects. In the same way\, the pattern of slave ownership and the pay scale of workers suggest that several of them\, in particular stonemasons\, were usually able to command a sizable volume of business. In addition\, building accounts reveal that even in years characterized by a higher density of public projects the construction industry was able to meet the increased demand of the market thanks to the versatility of workers within their own trade and their willingness to establish ad-hoc partnerships with other colleagues in order to carry out more onerous jobs.\n\nAll this\, in my opinion\, points to the existence\, in classical Athens\, of a regularly organized construction industry\, i.e. not made up only of travelling craftsmen and occasional workers\, and speaks against the traditional idea that the shortage of skilled labor was one of the main challenge of public construction programs.

DESCRIPTION:Sephardi Jewry produced major Jewish thinkers in the Middle Ages\, from philosophers like Judah Halevi\, Maimonides\, and Hasdai Crescas\; to mystics like Nahmanides and Moses de Leon. Among the philosophers\, there were those who adopted extreme rationalism in the guise of Greek philosophy\, while others were moderate rationalists\, questioning the conclusions reached by the philosophers\, especially those that seemed to undermine Jewish tradition. Among the mystics\, some tried to preserve their traditions among a small circle of adepts\, while others advocated the widespread distribution of mystical ideas. Sephardi legalists also incorporated theological ideas in their legal decisions. The lecture will discuss whether there is something specifically Sephardi which is characteristic of Iberian Jewish thinkers and the implications of Sephardi thought for Sephardi identity after the expulsion and into the modern period.\n\nThere is both an accessible elevator and gender-neutral restroom on the first and second floor.

But how does it actually work? Who does it catch and who does it leave behind? How do low-income families and individuals engage with the system while trying to meet their everyday basic needs? \n\nThis Poverty Simulation is a three-hour hands-on engaged learning experience for students to gain a deeper understanding of what it takes to feed a family\, pay bills\, find employment\, and navigate the complex challenges of the U.S. social safety net. The goal is for students to gain a better understanding of our current system\, reflect on how U.S. policies help or hinder those most in need\, and identify opportunities to take action toward a more just and equitable system. \n\nParticipants are given scripted role assignments and structured situations that represent those that welfare recipients face daily. Participants interact with volunteers who staff a community of stores and agencies including welfare office workers\, grocers\, pawnbrokers\, food pantry personnel\, bill collectors\, police\, and employment interviewers. After a “month on welfare” (about one hour) a facilitator leads a discussion based on the event. Participants describe their experiences\, volunteer staff share their insights and the facilitator offers suggestions for how participants can take action to promote justice for those living in actual poverty. \n\nPoverty Solutions is partnering with the Interfaith Council for Peace and Justice to host the event.\n\nSing up here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeAbXg4R1rJu-gMdMqO07t9F7WNPifWzZcQTfL5lnWBEiK9mQ/viewform\n\nContact Poverty Solutions student engagement coordinator Trevor Bechtel for more information: betrevor@umich.edu UID:58704-14544810@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/58704 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Poverty LOCATION:Ross School of Business - Blau Colloquium, 5th Floor, Blau Building CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190225T121524 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190226T180000 SUMMARY:Performance:Sexual and Gender-Based Misconduct  Awareness & Prevention in the Performing Arts  DESCRIPTION:The U-M School of Music\, Theatre & Dance Faculty & Staff Allies Network has coordinated a panel and performance event to take steps towards culture change\, affirm our commitment to safety and inclusivity\, Institute transparency and an open door of communication\, and Inform our community of the National Academies of Science\, Engineering\, and Medicine report on Sexual Harassment of Women\n \nGuests Include (Alphabetical Order)\n \nPanelist:\nLaura Fisher - Co-Founder of #NotInOurHouse\n \nEun Lee - Founder of The Dream Unfinished\n \nAmy O'Neal - Feminist activist in hip-hop\, choreographer of Opposing Forces\n \nKaaren Williamsen (moderator & panelist) - Director of the Sexual Assault Prevention & Awareness Center SAPAC\,\n \nPerformers:\nColleen Bernstein\, SMTD MM Student\, Percussion Performance and Chamber Music - Strength & Sensitivity Project\n \nCarla Dirlikov Canales\, mezzo-soprano\, SMTD BM \"02\, Founder of the Canales Project - Hear Her Song Project\n \nNicole Reehorst\, SMTD MFA Dance Student and Ballet Dance Instructor at Dance Illumination\n \nFor questions\, please contact Freyja Harris\, freyharr@umich.edu   \n\nThe SMTD Faculty and Staff Allies Network (FASAN) is a collection of volunteer leaders dedicated to fostering a nurturing\, respectful\, and safe SMTD community\, free from sexual misconduct\, harassment\, and gender bias.
