During his first years of adolescence\, Muzamil grows up like other children\, but sometimes feels uneasy about his future. When Muzammil turns 19\, he begins grappling with a holy man's prediction that he will die when he turns twenty.\n\nFilm Facts & Background:\nSince few films had been produced in Sudan since independence in 1956\, You Will Die at Twenty was only the country's eighth feature film. Filmmaker Amjad Abu Alala\, who was born in Dubai to Sudanese parents\, shot the film in northern Sudan during the upheavals of the Sudanese revolution and despite challenges in a country without a film industry and under the Islamist government of the time.\n__________________\nThis African Muslim Film Festival is brought to you by the Global Islamic Studies Center and cosponsored by the African Studies Center\, Arab and Muslim American Studies\, the Center for Middle East and North African Studies\, Digital Islamic Studies Curriculum\, the Department of Afroamerican and African Studies\, the Department of Film\, Television\, and Media\, the Department of Middle Eastern Studies\, the Department of Political Science\, and the Sawyer Seminar on the Africana Muslim and Genealogies of White Supremacy.\n\nVisit http://watch.eventive.org/amff for more details.\n\nWant to hear about similar events from U-M Islamic Studies?

Survivors Saving Survivors: Photographing the Ukrainian Refugee Experience in Poland DESCRIPTION:In April and June 2022\, at the invitation of JCC Krakow\, Chuck Fishman traveled to Poland to document the JCC and the Jewish community’s commitment to helping Ukrainian refugees fleeing their war-torn country. What he witnessed and captured in a series of gripping photographs is *tikkun olam*\, a central concept in Judaism that denotes activities that repair and improve the world we live in. The exhibit shifts the lens away from the horror the refugees have endured to focus instead on human goodness and how it can overcome lingering evil.\n\nIn his 45-year career\, freelance photographer Chuck Fishman has focused on social and political issues with a strong humanistic concern. His work on Jewish life in Poland\, begun in 1975\, continues to the present day. Fishman’s work has been extensively published\, exhibited\, and collected worldwide\, and has earned him prestigious World Press Photo Foundation medals four times. His photographs have appeared on the covers of *Time*\, *Life*\, *Fortune*\, *Newsweek*\, *The London Sunday Times*\, *The Economist*\, and numerous others. Fishman’s work is included in the collections of the Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery\, the United Nations POLIN: The Museum of the History of Polish Jews\, and the Stanford University and New York Public Libraries\, to name a few\, as well as private and corporate collections.\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at weisercenter@umich.edu.

The core of the project has been to study Aratus’ \"Phaenomena\,\" the most important poem on stars and constellations of the Graeco-Roman ancient world\, and its exegetical tradition. Read an annotated edition and English translation of \"Phaenomena\" and its commentaries (https://aratus.classics.lsa.umich.edu/).

Rather than imagining it as a singular\, coherent object\, this exhibit seeks to introduce the diversity\, difference\, and complexity inherent in feminist activism in Japan. As in other cultural contexts\, “feminism” in Japan can invoke sharply different associations\, from office workers trying to reshape taken-for-granted structures of power and authority\, to mothers advocating for safer school lunches after the 2011 Fukushima nuclear disasters\, and queer couples seeking legal recognition for the families they have created. Mainstream feminist activism in Japan has focused on advocating for change in families\, workplaces\, schools\, political institutions\, and laws\, among many other contexts. Many ­– but certainly not all – feminist activists in Japan are also responding to the lasting legacies of Japanese colonial projects\, working toward recognition\, repair\, and meaningful reparations for racial and gender-based violence that continue to impact communities disproportionately.\n\nThis exhibit features original portraits of feminists who have shaped the landscape of women's and gender rights in Japan and beyond. Created by nine contemporary artists in Japan and the United States\, the portraits and accompanying texts challenge simplistic understandings of \"feminism\" while also drawing attention to a diversity of experiences\, needs\, and activism within Japan. This exhibit also spotlights the history of Japanese studies at the University of Michigan in conjunction with the Center for Japanese Studies' 75th anniversary celebration. \n\n“Portraits of Feminism in Japan” is open for viewing M-F 9am-4pm or by appointment. University of Michigan instructors can email LaneHallExhibits@umich.edu to request a group tour or schedule a class visit.\n\nFeatured artists:\nElaine Cromie\, JenClare B.

Deeply rooted in community\, she cultivates and reaffirms the human connections that ultimately sustain us. Her recent work explores the emergent themes of belonging as seen through the histories of student rebellions in Chicago public schools between 1968 and 1980.\n\nHer site-specific installation *With Care*\, created for the Institute for the Humanities Gallery\, presents the documentary photographs of influential Mexican-born artist\, teacher\, and friend Diana Solís in visual dialogue with Marroquin’s own creative work which includes ceramic sculptures and printmaking. Solís’s photography reflects over 25 years of transnational Chicana and lesbian organizing primarily in Chicago and Mexico City between 1975 and 1990. \n\nAbout the Artist\nNicole Marroquin is an interdisciplinary artist\, researcher\, and teacher educator whose work explores spatial justice and Latinx history.

The word sends shivers up the spine of even the most experienced scholars. Assessment is one of the most challenging\, fraught\, and effective endeavors that we deal with as public scholars\, community engagement professionals\, and change agents. But does assessment have to be so stressful? So inauthentic? Devoid of values? The quick answer: no!\nAssessment can be so much more than ticking boxes\, taking surveys\, and statistics. It can be dynamic\, engaging\, authentic\, and reaffirming. In this workshop\, we will help participants to reimagine their relationship with assessment and develop ways of centering an equity-based\, inclusive\, democratic assessment process in their work. These workshops will guide participants through a series of activities to reimagine their assessment work using the framework of democratically-engaged assessment (DEA) as a lens. Following a conceptual introduction and initial engagement with the framework\, participants will examine their assessment practices and develop an action plan for their own work in a specific arena.

The word sends shivers up the spine of even the most experienced scholars. Assessment is one of the most challenging\, fraught\, and effective endeavors that we deal with as public scholars\, community engagement professionals\, and change agents. But does assessment have to be so stressful? So inauthentic? Devoid of values? The quick answer: no!\n\nAssessment can be so much more than ticking boxes\, taking surveys\, and statistics. It can be dynamic\, engaging\, authentic\, and reaffirming. In this workshop\, we will help participants to reimagine their relationship with assessment and develop ways of centering an equity-based\, inclusive\, democratic assessment process in their work. These workshops will guide participants through a series of activities to reimagine their assessment work using the framework of democratically-engaged assessment (DEA) as a lens. Following a conceptual introduction and initial engagement with the framework\, participants will examine their assessment practices and develop an action plan for their own work in a specific arena. Reflective exercises and collaborative activities will help participants surface their assumptions about the role of values in assessment\, the values they enact through their assessment\, tension points that arise across phases of assessment\, and opportunities to negotiate tensions through the lens of DEA. In keeping with the tenets of the framework\, participants will not only enhance their own work\, but also will contribute to the ongoing and co-creative development of the DEA framework itself.\nPart One: Reimagining Assessment for Public Scholarship\nNOTE: This session has a separate registration\, please register for Part 1 here.Intention: This workshop will cover the basics of assessment\, bust some myths\, introduce some framings and tools\, and explore examples of the spectrum of assessment.\nPart Two: From Theory to Practice - Build a plan and make it yoursAudience: This workshop is an ideal space for those who have a project\, an idea\, or an inkling of an idea that they want to develop into reality and plan how to assess it.Participants may choose to attend one or both sessions\, depending on their interests and needs.Facilitators\nJulia Metzker serves as director of the Washington Center for Improving Undergraduate Education at Evergreen State CollegeSarah Stanlick is an assistant professor in the Department of Integrative and Global Studies and the director of the Great Problems Seminar at Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI).\nThis session is sponsored by Rackham’s Mellon Public Engagement and the Humanities program\, and is open to all students on campus interested in the topic.\n UID:104693-21809890@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/104693 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Sessions LOCATION:Pond - 1st Floor CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20230314T062039 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20230314T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20230314T120000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Diversity 101 DESCRIPTION:In order to have meaningful\, productive conversations about diversity\, equity\, and inclusion\, we must start with a common language.

The writing portion is completed on paper and it is worth a total of 100 points.b. The reading portion is completed on Canvas site\, and it is worth a total of 48 points.c. Right after finishing with the reading portion\, each student will have a follow-up interview with a proctor. The interviews last approximately 15 minutes and it is worth a total of 20 points.Important: The interview portion will be weighted most heavily as it will be used to validate performance on the other portions. The final result/score/rating will thus be based on the student’s performance on the interview above all. Rating of performance on the writing or reading portions is secondary.Students who receive 60% or above will be placed in Arabic 401 and thus placed out of the language requirement.Where can I view my results?Placement results are posted within 7 business days after the test.You will not be notified of your score automatically. You may view your placements via: Wolverine Access > Student Business > Academic Records > View Placement Exam Results.Important information about the test* Placements are valid for only one year. If you fail to register in the course that you are placed in\, you will be required to retake the test.* Retaking the placement test is only permitted after the placement results expire.* The test assesses students’ proficiency in Modern Standard Arabic (MSA)\, NOT colloquial Arabic.* If you speak an Arabic dialect but you do not know how to read or write or have little knowledge\, feel free to register in Arabic 101.* Students who know some Arabic because they came from an Arabic-speaking household or have studied Arabic before\, must take the Arabic proficiency test in order to determine their placement.* Students who have taken Arabic at other institutions and wish to continue their Arabic study at UM must take the placement test to determine their level. Credits for Arabic study undertaken at another institution prior to joining UM or in a summer program while attending UM\, transfer in as generic departmental credits and students must take the placement test to determine credit equivalencies to UM courses.* If you place in or beyond the 401 level\, you will have satisfied the LSA language requirement. * Students are encouraged to take a placement test as early as possible in their studies in order to determine the level they should enroll in\, or if they test out of the language requirement. This is extremely important to avoid delays in graduation and complications with placement.* Arabic 101\, 201\, 401\, 501 are offered ONLY in the Fall semester\, and Arabic 102\, 202\, 402\, 504 are ONLY offered in the Winter semester.* The Summer Language Institute (June & July) offers intensive Arabic 103 (the equivalent of Arabic 101 &102\, combined)\, Arabic 203 (the equivalent of Arabic 201 & 202\, combined)\, and Arabic 401 & 402.About the UM Arabic programUM’s Arabic curriculum is a dual register curriculum in which students learn to speak and understand either the Egyptian dialect or the Levantine dialect (the dialect of Jordan\, Syria\, Palestine and Lebanon) in addition to learning to read and write and understand formal Arabic (fuSHa). Students starting to learn Arabic\, if they have no background in Arabic\, can choose to take either dialect or can switch their dialect focus from one semester to the next. The dialect focus of each class section is indicated in the schedule of classes.\nIf you have questions regarding the placement test\, please contact the program director at\, mesarabicprogram@umich.edu.

The resulting randomness affects biological outcomes at multiple scales\, from the probability that a single protein molecule successfully finds its folded state to the evolutionary trajectory of a population of cells. Understanding how the distribution of these outcomes changes over time is often difficult\, and achieving control over this distribution via external interventions is an even more complex challenge. Intriguingly\, this problem has close parallels in a very different domain: manipulating quantum states for applications like quantum computing and cold atom transport. In this talk we show how one can translate quantum control into the classical realm of biology\, giving us a novel tool for steering biological processes. We illustrate this idea through two examples: the first is controlling the distribution of genetic variants in an evolving cellular population. This is motivated by recent efforts to combat antibiotic resistance via therapies that guide the evolution of pathogens toward maximized drug sensitivity. The second example involves controlling the distribution of protein folding states using so-called molecular chaperones: protein enzymes that facilitate the unfolding or disaggregating of misfolded proteins. The theoretical framework behind these two examples is quite general\, and can in principle be used in many other biophysical problems. Finally\, we discuss ongoing work to explore the thermodynamic costs associated with control.

Elaboration of halogenated heteroaromatic cores can be achieved through cross-coupling reactions\, which are among the most widely used methods in organic synthesis. However\, when two or more halides are present on the substrate\, controlling site selectivity becomes critical. In fact\, cross-couplings often follow a predictable selectivity pattern. For many dihalogenated heteroarenes\, methods do not exist to reliably invert the conventional pattern to achieve cross-coupling at the \\"less reactive\\" C—X bond. Herein we describe new catalyst-controlled strategies to accomplish this goal\, together with mechanistic studies to explain the origin of the selectivity inversion. \n \n\nSharon Neufeldt (Montana State University) UID:95717-21790782@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/95717 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Biosciences,Chemistry,Science LOCATION:Chemistry Dow Lab - 1300 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20230223T084951 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20230314T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20230314T170000 SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:2023 Depression on College Campuses Conference DESCRIPTION:Join us for a two-day\, in-person conference dedicated to exploring the benefits and drawbacks of the hybrid landscape and its impact on student mental health in higher education.\n\nThis annual event brings together hundreds of clinicians\, researchers\, health education specialists\, student support staff and students for a two-day event focused on mental health work.

This seminar will be in-person and livestreaming on Zoom.\n\nAbstract:\nEcological communities have been shifting rapidly under recent climate change with alarming consequences for biodiversity and ecosystem services\, yet the generality and causality of such shifts have to be demonstrated. We focus on grasslands in the California Floristic Province\, a global biodiversity hotspot spanning 300\,000 km2\, where considerable climate warming and drying have occurred. We compiled long-term grassland community composition data from 12 observational sites and a warming experiment\, estimated hundreds of species’ climate niches from millions of occurrence records\, and analyzed changes in community composition and species gain and loss in reference to their climate distributions. We show that these grassland communities experienced significant shifts toward species tolerant of warmer and drier conditions\, at a pace similar to climate warming and drying. The consistent observational and experimental evidence establish grassland community shift as a predictable fingerprint of climate change.

Yet\, public health recommendations for preventing the spread—staying at home and social distancing—only add another layer to the health disparities\, socioeconomic disadvantages\, and policy barriers experienced by communities of color. Guided by a resilience-based approach\, this project employs a mixed methods design to gauge the effects of COVID-19 on Latinos whilst exploring the cultural and social influences that serve as protective factors in the face of psychological and structural barriers. As a first step\, quantitative data was gathered through an online survey of 1595 Latinos from the United States and Puerto Rico. Initial analyses of the sample—which showcased vaccine hesitancy\, collectivist ideals\, and a general fear of the virus—were used to design a semi-structured interview protocol. The resulting qualitative data comes from one-on-one interviews with 60 Latinos from the United States. Integrated results regarding the effects of COVID\, steps taken to combat COVID\, concerns\, cultural values\, and hopes for the future illustrate the why/how often missing from quantitative samples and show that despite the many difficulties brought about by COVID-19 there is strength in the values and customs of Latino culture. \n\nCARLOS VIVALDO\nDoctoral Candidate\, Biopsychology\nTitle: Joint Coding of Sound and Speed by Auditory Cortical Neuronal Ensembles \nThe ability to process and act upon incoming sounds during locomotion is critical for survival. Intriguingly\, sound responses of auditory cortical neurons are on average weaker during locomotion as compared to immobility and these results have been suggested to reflect a computational resource allocation shift from auditory to visual processing. However\, the evolutionary benefit of this hypothesis remains unclear. In particular\, whether weaker sound-evoked responses during locomotion indeed reflect a reduced involvement of the auditory cortex\, or whether they result from an alternative neural computation in this state remains unresolved. To address this question\, we first used neural inactivation in behaving mice and found that the auditory cortex plays a critical role in sound-guided behavior during locomotion. To investigate the nature of this processing\, we used two-photon calcium imaging of local excitatory auditory cortical neural populations in awake mice. We found that underlying a net inhibitory effect of locomotion on sound-evoked response magnitude\, spatially intermingled neuronal subpopulations were differentially influenced by locomotion. Further\, the net inhibitory effect of locomotion on sound-evoked responses was strongly shaped by elevated ongoing activity. Importantly\, rather than reflecting enhanced “noise”\, this ongoing activity reliably encoded the animal’s locomotion speed. Prediction analyses revealed that sound\, locomotive state and their integration are strongly encoded by auditory cortical ensemble activity. Finally\, we found consistent patterns of locomotion-sound integration in electrophysiologically recorded activity in freely moving rats. Together\, our data suggest that auditory cortical ensembles are not simply suppressed by locomotion but rather encode it alongside sound information to support sound perception during locomotion.

While scholars have speculated about the source and universality of the Neg-First principle based on such evidence\, these hypotheses have not been widely tested or corroborated using experimental methods. In this talk\, I will report two artificial language learning experiments which investigate the effect of language experience on the behavioral bias to produce preverbal negation among speakers of English and Japanese\, as well as the hypothesis that the Neg-First principle is driven by factors of audience design in communication. While English speakers show a preference to produce preverbal negation even in the absence of communication\, Japanese speakers do not\, challenging the idea of a universal preference for preverbal negation in acquisition as a plausible candidate for shaping linguistic typology. Though one possibility is that the cross-linguistic prevalence of preverbal negation results from historical forces rather than pressures on learning and use\, more nuanced explanations which maintain the role of biases which are present independent of language experience remain to be explored.

The previous literature\, however\, has been unable to fully document this path over time\, or fully assess the role of explanatory factors such as changes in firm organization and technology. We provide fresh evidence that allows us to better document the inverted U as well as its causes. In the first part of the paper\, we use the Department of Labor’s Hand and Machine Labor Study to show that wage inequality within manufacturing establishments rose over the nineteenth century. In the second part\, we use information from Massachusetts on construct a new time series showing that wage inequality among production workers declined from the 1890s to the late 1930s. For both periods technology played a role – the shift to steam-powered factories over the nineteenth century raised wage inequality\, whereas electrification after 1900 reduced it.

Key questions about the dynamics of these excitations in the presence of both many-body physics and topology are currently driving numerous major research efforts in quantum materials. One such material is (TaSe_4)_2I - a Weyl semimetal that undergoes charge density wave (CDW) ordering below 260 K. I will discuss two of our recent experiments using nonlinear light-matter interaction in the terahertz (THz) range to directly probe the dynamics of the collective excitations of (TaSe_4)_2I. I will first show how upon transient photoexcitation at low temperatures (TaSe_4)_2I strikingly emits coherent\, narrow-band THz radiation. The frequency\, polarization and temperature dependence of the emitted radiation imply the existence of a phason that acquires mass by coupling to long-range Coulomb interaction\, giving a direct measurement of the Anderson-Higgs mechanism. Second\, I will show our recent results using THz pump\, IR Kerr probe spectroscopy on (TaSe_4)_2I to highlight how THz-driven phonons can induce a sizeable dynamic optical Kerr rotation in this otherwise time-reversal invariant system. I will briefly discuss both these results in the context of the predicted axion electrodynamics in (TaSe_4)_2I.

This “archeological impulse” comes on the wave of queer activism and the rise of LGBTQ+ visibility politics following the collapse of state socialism in the 1990s\, while frequently challenging western perceptions of the region within the dominant Orientalizing and Cold War imaginaries. Drawing on this growing body of scholarship and activism\, my presentation examines the transformation of štajga\, or the cruising grounds—from a previously invisible site of sexual modernity in late Yugoslav socialism into a counter-archive of queer history in the postsocialist present. In particular\, I focus on Uroš Filipović’s Staklenac (Glass Arcade\, 2002)\, a seminal work of queer autofiction in Serbia\, alongside the more recent work of the queerANarchive collective\, founded in 2010 in Split as an attempt to document\, archive\, and render discursive the geographies and practices of queer culture in the context of postsocialist Croatia. I argue that štajga serves not only as an historical alternative to the contemporary politics of queer visibility and respectability\, but also as a site that registers the shifting relations between non-normative sexuality\, queer poetics\, and capitalist form. \nThis hybrid event is presented by the Lesbian-Gay-Queer Research Initiative (LGQRI) at IRWG with co-sponsorship from the Departments of Comparative Literature\, and Slavic Languages and Literatures.\nRegister to attend in person or on Zoom. **This talk will be recorded.

This “archeological impulse” comes on the wave of queer activism and the rise of LGBTQ+ visibility politics following the collapse of state socialism in the 1990s\, while frequently challenging western perceptions of the region within the dominant Orientalizing and Cold War imaginaries. Drawing on this growing body of scholarship and activism\, my presentation examines the transformation of štajga\, or the cruising grounds—from a previously invisible site of sexual modernity in late Yugoslav socialism into a counter-archive of queer history in the postsocialist present. In particular\, I focus on Uroš Filipović’s Staklenac (Glass Arcade\, 2002)\, a seminal work of queer autofiction in Serbia\, alongside the more recent work of the queerANarchive collective\, founded in 2010 in Split as an attempt to document\, archive\, and render discursive the geographies and practices of queer culture in the context of postsocialist Croatia. I argue that štajga serves not only as an historical alternative to the contemporary politics of queer visibility and respectability\, but also as a site that registers the shifting relations between non-normative sexuality\, queer poetics\, and capitalist form. \n\nThis hybrid event is presented by the Lesbian-Gay-Queer Research Initiative (LGQRI) at IRWG with co-sponsorship from the Departments of Comparative Literature\, and Slavic Languages and Literatures.\n\nRegister to attend in person or on Zoom: https://myumi.ch/Mr7ne\n\nAbout the Speaker:\nVladislav Beronja is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Slavic and Eurasian Studies at the University of Texas at Austin.

For the Irish music enthusiast\, Altan has a treasure trove of brilliant moves to offer: the mix of sounds from Donegal with outside influences\, the sheer virtuosity of the players\, the beauty\, delicate singing\, and down-to-earth charm of singer and fiddler Mairead Ni Mhaonaigh. Anywhere they go\, a concert by Altan is the Irish music event of the year\, and you can also pick up a copy of the group’s new book\, “The Tunes.” UID:100054-21799037@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/100054 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Ark,Concert,Music,Mutotix LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20230314T182026 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20230314T200000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20230314T201500 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Don't Swipe: An Immersive Exploration in Making an Imprint DESCRIPTION:College is a time when many of us think about the ways we might want to make an imprint on the world.
