SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Phoenix Project: From Kikuchi to Fastest Path
DESCRIPTION:We invite you to submit your work to Phoenix Project: From Kikuchi to Fastest Path. Selected papers will be published in a special issue of Nuclear Technology.\n\nNuclear energy faces complex sociotechnical challenges\, combining social and technical dimensions. These include difficulties in technology implementation\, cost overruns\, regulatory constraints\, public mistrust\, community engagement failures\, nuclear waste management\, security concerns\, and equity issues.\n\nThese challenges have been addressed separately by different disciplines\, hindered by disciplinary divides and normative differences. Historically\, engineers favor technology\, while humanities and social sciences take critical stances\, impeding collaboration.\n\nThe education of nuclear engineers hasn't sufficiently addressed sociotechnical aspects\, exacerbating these challenges. Despite this\, interdisciplinary research efforts are underway\, supported by funding agencies. \n\nThis symposium aims to assess progress\, identify shared objectives\, and discuss methodologies and institutional support for sociotechnical research in nuclear energy. \n\nAuthors are encouraged to reflect on these issues\, fostering collaborative field-building activities.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:WCEE Exhibition. Threads of Tradition: The Art of Ukrainian Vyshyvanka
DESCRIPTION:The act of embroidering and weaving designs onto cloth is deeply rooted in Ukrainian traditions. Embellished clothing (sorochky)\, ritual cloths (rushnyky)\, and household textiles accompany a person from birth until death\, punctuating important life events in between. A variety of embroidery patterns are used throughout Ukraine\; some stitches are universally known\, while others are region-specific. Ukrainian embroidered clothing is now officially celebrated with an annual Vyshyvanka Day observed throughout the world in May.\n\nTo see photos and read more about exhibited items\, visit https://myumi.ch/AZedA\n   \n   The embroideries and textiles exhibited are from the private collections of Arnie Klein\, Solomia Soroka\, Katerina Sirinyok-Dolgaryova\, and from the Ukrainian American Archives & Museum located in Hamtramck\, Michigan.\n   \n   The exhibit opens on September 5\, 2024\, in 1010 Weiser Hall\, 500 Church Street\, Ann Arbor. Contact weisercenter@umich.edu to schedule a viewing.\n\n*The exhibition is cosponsored by the Ukrainian American Archives & Museum*.\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Lyman Continuum in Local Reionization-Era Analogs: Sources and Escape Mechanisms
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\n\nThe Epoch of Reionization (EoR\; z ≥ 6) marked the transition of our universe from a neutral to an ionized state\, driven by early galaxies and possibly active galactic nuclei (AGN). However\, the sources of ionizing Lyman Continuum (LyC) radiation and the mechanisms enabling its escape from largely neutral galaxies remain uncertain. Local (z = 0−0.3) analogs to the EoR galaxies with LyC detections\, such as Green Peas (GPs)\, can illuminate both ionizing sources and LyC escape mechanisms likely at play in the early universe. This thesis establishes radiation-driven feedback\, rather than the traditional supernova (SN) feedback\, as a major mechanism for promoting LyC escape in GPs and GP-like galaxies. With case studies of resolved iconic starbursts Mrk 71 and Haro 11\, as well as an analysis of galaxies from the Low-redshift Lyman Continuum Survey (LzLCS) and literature GPs\, I show that this process may dominate in young\, high-ionization starbursts with low metallicities. In Haro 11\, new HST/COS observations pinpoint the LyC sources. The results underscore the importance of intrinsic LyC luminosity from young stars\, rather than simply optical depth\, in promoting LyC escape. My findings separately demonstrate the likely importance of anisotropic LyC escape through a dense\, cloudy medium. In Mrk 71\, I use spatially resolved\, Gemini-N/GMOS-IFU observations to show that its broad\, 3000 km/s  emission-line wings originate from a radiation-driven superwind composed of tiny\, dense\, neutral gas clumps with a low filling factor\, and accelerated by LyC and/or Lyα photons\, thus likely implying LyC escape. I therefore propose that similar broad\, smooth\, power-law wings may be an indicator of LyC escape via such superwinds. I then use Magellan/MIKE\, VLT/X-shooter\, and WHT/ISIS spectroscopic observations of a sample of 26 LzLCS galaxies\, to find that those with higher ionization parameters and lower metallicities have [O III]λ5007 emission-line wings with power-law shapes. The power-law wing parameters correlate with tracers of radiation-dominated conditions\, such as O32 and EW(Hβ)\, and are consistent with the wind kinematics and picket-fence radiative transfer expected under these conditions. Gaussian line wings\, in contrast\, are associated with higher metallicity\, lower ionization\, and older ages\, and likely trace conventional SN-driven feedback. The above findings thus imply an emerging paradigm of LyC escape defined by two different feedback modes: radiation-dominated and SN-dominated.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Mrs. Dalloway and WWI: Home Front and War Front
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit explores the characters of Mrs. Dalloway through the lens of WWI and its aftershocks. It looks at those who fought in the trenches and those who watched from afar.\n\n[The exhibit includes references to suicide and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder\, which might be distressing for some visitors. Viewer discretion is advised.]\n\nWhile all of the action in Virginia Woolf’s modernist masterpiece takes place on a single day\, as preparations are made for Clarissa Dalloway’s evening party\, Woolf’s stream of consciousness writing takes us in the characters’ minds all the way from English drawing rooms to colonial India to the trenches of World War I.\n\nCheck today's Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours: https://myumi.ch/PkQ2x

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Steve Glazer Art Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Steve Glazer earned his BFA in art with a concentration in ceramics from Eastern Michigan University\, a master’s degree in art from Central Michigan University\, and MFA in fine arts and ceramics from Indiana State University. Since 2004\, Glazer has been lead faculty and head of ceramics at Henry Ford College\, and former faculty of Concord College (WV) and North Dakota State University. His artwork has been exhibited throughout the country.\n\nThroughout his adult life the art of Steve Glazer has been done as a response to his environment. From a series of shadow box type pieces containing life like ceramic fish while teaching at a Catholic woman’s college\, to building 8’ tall ceramic “skyscrapers” that barely fit into the display spaces while teaching in North Dakota\, where no skyscrapers exist\, and then creating installations commenting on living in Appalachia while teaching in southern West Virginia. After returning home to Detroit\, Glazer began his griot series\, the “Motor City Griot Society” masks\, the faces of the superheroes that will save Detroit\, and more recently the “Motor City Griot Patrol” creatures that will protect the city of Detroit.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Susan Moran Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Susan Moran’s work is inspired by the natural world and our place in it.  She collects and arranges images\, builds and subtracts\, and uses processes that suit the concepts and gives the pieces a reason for existing as textiles.  Simultaneously she strives to make the medium  influence the  outcome in such a way that cloth and image meld together. Moran uses  silkscreen\, shibori\, and stitching to embed images from her daily walks into the fabric. it's important that the work builds slowly\, involving meditative processes that connect her to the cloth and the source of the design.\n\nGallery hours:  Monday-Friday\, 9 am to 5pm or by appointment serrag@med.umich.edu

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Touch
DESCRIPTION:Ericka Lopez is a visual artist born in Mexico and living in Los Angeles. Lopez lost her sight at an early age and is mostly non-verbal. This exhibition of tactile assemblage works and gestural coiled pots were created by the artist through touch and texture\, colored by memory. The works are sensory\, physical\, immediate\, reaffirming\, and deeply expressive. Viewers to this exhibition are invited to touch the work. \n\nDuring her residency\, the artist and her support team\, which includes her mother and translator\, will engage directly with students in the exhibition space\, offering a transformative experience based on human expression and connection through art. Because Ericka feels most comfortable when she is working\, she plans to make artwork with students as part of the class engagements with the exhibition.\n\nAbout Ericka Lopez\nBorn 1987 in Mexico\, Ericka Lopez has been making art at Tierra del Sol Studios since 2019. Working across ceramic\, fiber\, and mixed media constructions\, Lopez’s practice is centralized around her exploration of touch. Lopez was born with limited vision and is now completely blind. Lopez trained in massage therapy and previously volunteered at a soup kitchen when an encounter with Tierra’s ceramics studio shifted her trajectory toward fine art. Her masterful command of clay hand-building techniques enables Lopez to create intricate\, dynamic\, and organically structured coil vessels. Lopez’s works are informed by her finite recollection of color\; she requests specific shades and combinations of glazes that generate spontaneous\, distinctive surfaces when fired. This intuitive approach continues in her fiber wall works and mixed media sculptures. Utilizing punch rug embroidery\, Lopez creates abstract fields of yarn and found objects\, often repeatedly punching through the same area to yield densely layered sections. Lopez has learned to identify the color of her materials via scent and feel\, a process that is difficult to put into words. Her mixed media sculptures are created almost entirely by touch\, consisting of threads\, buttons\, beads\, fabric scraps\, and found objects instinctively stitched together using simple sewing techniques. Lopez hopes her works can be experienced through an inquiry of touch.\n\nEricka Lopez has exhibited her artwork at Laband Gallery and Tierra del Sol Gallery in Los Angeles\, CA. Lopez’s debut solo exhibition\, “Continuous Touch\,” was curated by jill moniz for Tierra del Sol Gallery in the Spring of 2023. She has had works acquired by notable private collections such as that of Beth DeWoody and by the Kleefeld Contemporary Art Museum at UC Long Beach.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Gathering
DESCRIPTION:Welcome. Make Yourself At Home.\n \nA Gathering brings together the newest works of art to enter UMMA’s collection — many on display here for the first time. \n \nAs a free\, public museum\, UMMA staff takes care of art for the benefit of the community and society at large. The works on view in this exhibition\, all brought into the Museum between 2019 and the present\, shows how institutions like UMMA are becoming more permeable to societal challenges\, and more nimble in responding to them in service to all in their communities. In this exhibition you will find works that reflect on how global migrations\, race\, gender\, and ecological change shape the way we engage with the world and inform our visions for the future.\n \nThis collection of artistic engagements with issues give us tools to envision who we want to be as individuals\, as a museum\, and as a society\, connected to one another across space and experience.\n \nSo gather here to take in these latest works of art brought here for you. Gather here to be engulfed in their forms and meanings\, to discuss their takes\, to learn\, to disagree. Gather to relax\, make a friend\, drink a coffee\, finish the daily Wordle. Gather to feel full\, to be moved and inspired by all the possible imaginations of what is yet to come.\n \nCurated by Félix Zamora Gómez Irving Stenn\, Jr. Fellow in Public Humanities & Museum Pedagogy\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by Lizzie and Jonathan Tisch\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Office of the Provost.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism
DESCRIPTION:Organized as a response to the Museum’s recent acquisition of Titus Kaphar’s Flay (James Madison)\, this upcoming reinstallation of one of our most prominent gallery spaces forces us to grapple with our collection of European and American art\, 1650-1850.\n \nIn recent times\, growing public awareness of the continued reverberations of the legacy of slavery and colonization has challenged museums to examine the uncomfortable histories contained in our collections\, and challenged the public to probe the choices we make about those stories. Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Kelly Church & Cherish Parrish: In Our Words\, An Intergenerational Dialogue
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition Dates: September 13 – December 7\, 2024Opening Reception: September 19\, 2024\n\nKelly Church &amp\; Cherish Parrish: In Our Words\, An Intergenerational Dialogue is a major exhibition that centers the subjectivities of two contemporary Indigenous artists whose practices have sustained and bolstered the relevance of the age-old Anishinaabe practice of black ash basket-making in the 21st century. The exhibition highlights the significance of community-based conversations between mother and daughter\, and their ongoing conversations with elders (ancestors)\, young folx\, and future generations as vital aspects of their methodology. These conversations often take place during basket gatherings - where community members come together and share stories and teachings that can encompass Anishinaabe creation stories\, as well as those of survivance and resilience\, to inform the materiality and liveness of their work. The curatorial and interpretive framework of this exhibition contends that the deeply situated and temporal works by Church (Stamps\, BFA 1998) and Parrish (LSA\, BA 2020) are repositories for Anishinaabe ways of knowing\, thinking\, and making that contribute to the complexity of American art and its histories. The expansive and bold practices of Church and Parrish affirm the sovereignty of Anishinaabe lifeways and the importance of including Indigenous narratives that have systematically been left out. Thus\, the thematic survey of their work will explore the under-examined themes that inform their work such as Native women’s labor as carriers of culture and knowledge-keepers\, the legacy of boarding schools and ancestors who walked on\, the treaties in Michigan and the long-overlooked legacy of Anishinaabe intellectual life and their relevance today. Just like the practice of weaving and interlacing distinct strips of black ash to create one whole\, Church and Parrish will address the diverse and interconnected themes with approximately 30-35 works\, including 15-17 new works. Together\, the exhibition offers an incisive critique of the colonial\, racist paradigm of systemic erasure and assimilation that continues to this day\, with the ongoing crises of missing and murdered Indigenous women\, culture wars\, and climate change that threaten Indigenous ways of living\, sustenance\, and making. \nCurated by Srimoyee Mitra with Curatorial Assistant Zoi Crampton.\nStamps Gallery is grateful to Michigan Humanities and U-M Arts Initiative for generously supporting the exhibition and programs.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Quantum Research Institute Seminar | Unveiling the Invisible: Quantum Defects\, Hidden Orders\, and the Quest for Dark Matter
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nAt the heart of scalable quantum technologies are interconnected physical systems composed of precisely tailored materials\, often operating at their classical and quantum limits. In this talk\, I will present our advances in developing and applying theoretical and computational approaches to tackle the unique challenges of predicting and designing quantum phenomena in solid-state systems\, connecting atomic-scale information with macroscopic functionality. I will showcase select examples from our group\, including the ab initio design of solid-state quantum defects through the establishment of the “Quantum Defects Genome\,” leveraging high-throughput materials genomics with state-of-the-art computational techniques. Next\, I will discuss our proposal of  how emergent phenomena in quantum materials—such as topology\, multiferroicity\, and superconductivity—are promising platforms for novel quantum sensing schemes aimed at detecting elusive dark matter. I will demonstrate how designer Hamiltonian approaches offer new concepts and enhanced sensitivities for low-mass dark matter detection. Lastly\, I will present recent results from our group on the extension of this approach to experimental probes sensitive to ‘hidden’ order parameters\, such as the newly proposed ‘altermagnets’\, and discuss how these probes provide new quantitative insights into underlying fundamental physics through correlated spectroscopies and microscopies.\n\nBio:\nDr. Sinéad M. Griffin is a Staff Scientist in the Materials Sciences Division and Molecular Foundry at Berkeley Lab where she leads the quantum materials theory group. Dr. Griffin received her PhD from ETH Zürich in 2014. From 2015-18 she was an SNF postdoctoral fellow at UC Berkeley and Berkeley Lab\, before becoming staff scientist.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Michelle Hinojosa: Logcabins
DESCRIPTION:Stamps Gallery commissioned Michelle Hinojosa (MFA\, 2023) to reimagine the pillars on Division Street that flank the Gallery. Hinojosa has created log cabin quilts to adorn the columns in front of Stamps Gallery. The log cabin quilts traditionally represent the warm hearth at the center of a home. This installation reflects on the interplay between home\, placemaking\, labor\, and intergenerational memories of migration. Rather than quilting cotton designed to softly embrace the body\, these quilts are sewn from outdoor grade\, UV-resistant polyester. The quilt is an ode to Hinojosa’s grandmother who illegally crossed the US/Mexico border holding her babies and her quilts. As she and her family drove across the United States to work in the fields of the Salinas Valley\, the quilts offered a safe space for her and her family. Hinojosa celebrates their resilience to her grandmother and elders while also drawing attention to precarity and violence experienced by refugees and migrants crossing the US-Mexico border in our present today.\nArtist’s bio:\nMichelle Inez Hinojosa is an artist\, educator\, and researcher whose work is informed by Indigenous and Latine/x/a/o studies. Born and raised in Texas\, she earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in both drawing and painting and art education with a minor in art history at the University of North Texas. She holds a Master of Fine Arts from the University of Michigan. She works with quilting\, bead weaving\, embroidery\, jewelry\, transparent film installations\, painting\, ceramics\, and sculpture to honor and explore the history of migration in her family and humanize the current discourse around migration still occurring at the southern border. Alongside her artwork she maintains a writing practice to re-story\, re-make\, and re-claim the often subordinated narratives of Latinx\, Chicanx\, Mexican\, and Texican peoples. \n\nRecently\, Hinojosa was named an inaugural Creative Careers Artist in Residence at the University of Michigan\, she has also attended residencies at Mildred's Lane (Pennsylvania)\, Anderson Ranch Art Center (Aspen\, CO) and The Cedars Union (Dallas\, TX).

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:How Good is International Risk Sharing? Stepping outside the Shadow of the Welfare Theorems (joint with Mark Aguiar and Dmitry Mukhin)
DESCRIPTION:We revisit whether global output is (Pareto) efficiently distributed across countries over time. The efficient allocation of goods across regions requires that the relative marginal utilities of consumption across countries comoves with the relative costs of the country-specific consumption bundles. Standard approaches to evaluating this property exploit the Welfare Theorems and equate the observed real exchange rate with the social relative costs of consumption. Given the large literature documenting the disconnect between exchange rates\, relative prices faced by consumers in a given market\, and relative quantities consumed\, we develop a methodology that measures relative costs that is robust to this disconnect. We find that relative consumption growth across regions is significantly more correleted with our computed shadow prices than it is with observed real exchange rates\, suggesting an allocation closer to efficient risk sharing. Moreover\, we provide a decentralization that matches observed prices and quantities\, enabling us to rationalize the better implied risk sharing with the failure of the standard correlations. The decentralization involves a combination of segmented foreign exchange markets and pricing-to-market behavior in goods markets. The model implies that consumption allocations are insulated from excess fluctuations in the ex- change rate via the optimal equilibrium pricing behavior of exporters.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:“Identity Potpourri” Photography Exhibition Opening Reception
DESCRIPTION:2Fik is a multidisciplinary artist known for embodying multiple\, unique characters. Through his social and political works\, 2Fik creates lives for characters who almost seem real\, whose stories\, personalities\, and interests are rooted in our world. Each of his creations are conceived in a voyeuristic way that pushes the spectator to wonder what exists beyond the scope of the work. Each character in this humorous and interpretative world becomes a reflection of our society.\n\n\"Identity Potpourri\" by 2Fik is a mixture of different artworks from various series by the artist between 2006 and 2016. The exhibition will open at 6 PM on October 30 and be on display until November 8.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CJS Noon Lecture Series | The Uniqueness of Japanese Documentary Films: Focusing on the Minamata Series
DESCRIPTION:Please note: This lecture will be held in person in room 555 Weiser Hall and virtually via Zoom. This webinar is free and open to the public\, but registration is required. Once you've registered\, the joining information will be sent to your email. Register for the Zoom webinar at: https://myumi.ch/DrnVx\n   \n   Japanese documentary films have a unique style. Minamata disease\, which spread from Minamata City on the west coast of Kyushu Island along with the economic growth of the 1950–60s\, has given rise to many literary\, theatrical and photographic works that sound the alarm for humanity\, and in the field of cinema\, Noriaki Tsuchimoto (1928–2008) continued to shoot the *Minamata* series over a period of 40 years. I would like to consider the relationship between the Minamata disease and art\, including with the American film *Minamata*\, in which Johnny Depp plays photographer Eugene Smith.\n      \n   Kenji Ishizaka is the 2024-25 Toyota Visiting Professor\, and is joining CJS from the Japan Institute of the Moving Image (JIMI)\, the first film university in Japan. He teaches about Asian film history\, documentary film history\, film distribution theory\, and screening planning workshops\, and serves as a provost and the director of the International Exchange Center at JIMI.\n   \n   Born in 1960 in Tokyo\, Kenji earned his MA degree from the graduate school of Waseda University. From 1990 to 2007\, he was the Film Coordinator at the Japan Foundation and has organized more than seventy film events on Asian and Arab cinema. He has been in charge of the Asian film section of the Tokyo International Film Festival as a senior programmer since 2007\, and spends his days watching many films made in a wide range of regions from East Asia to the Middle East. He frequently travels to Asian countries for research and to communicate with people involved in the film industry\, and has served on the jury of international film festivals in Hawaii\, Delhi\, Busan\, Bangkok\, and other places.\n\nThis lecture is made possible with the generous support of the U.S. Department of Education Title VI grant.\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at umcjs@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:In-person Arabic Placement test_November 7\, 2024 (12:00pm-3:00pm)
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to the Arabic Placement TestAbout the testThe test is approximately two hours and a half in length\, and it is composed of three portions:a. 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: a. 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. b. Students who receive 60% or above will be placed in Arabic 401 and thus placed out of the language requirement.c. Students who are not able to write in Modern Standard Arabic (MSA) do not need to take the placement test and they will be advised to enroll in Arabic 101.Where can I view my results?a. Placement results are posted within 7 business days after the test.b. 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\, 511 are ONLY offered in the Winter semester.* Arabic 103 (the equivalent of Arabic 101 & 102\, combined) may be offered in the Spring/Summer sessions.* Arabic 203 (the equivalent of Arabic 201 & 202\, combined) is offered in the Spring/Summer sessions.If you have questions regarding the placement test\, please contact the program director at\, mesarabicprogram@umich.edu.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:ChE SEMINAR: Phillip Christopher\, University of California Santa Barbara
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nIndustrial heterogeneous catalysts ubiquitously contain trace amounts (ppm) of “promoters” species\, which can substantially promote activity\, selectivity\, or stability. Recently\, it has been observed that the addition of very small amounts (<1:100 atom %) transition metal atoms (e.g. Pt\, Pd\, Ni) to coinage metal (Au\, Ag and Cu) surfaces can drastically promote selectivity in hydrogenation and dehydrogenation catalysis. The unique catalytic behavior of these ultra-dilute alloys derives from bifunctional reaction pathways where molecular activation at the dispersed promoter sites results in intermediate spillover onto the coinage metal host\, enabling distinct reactivities. Here\, I will discuss the design of ultra-dilute alloy catalysts with a focus on selective ethylene epoxidation on Ag-based alloys and sintering resistance of Cu-based alloys during accelerated aging. I will highlight how a combination of theory\, surface science\, in-situ spectroscopy and high surface area catalyst measurements can be used to design and understand the function of dilute promoters. These findings demonstrate that dilute alloy catalysts have potential to improve catalyst performance beyond hydrogenation/dehydrogenation chemistries and that they offer potential for simultaneous promotion of rate/selectivity and stability.\n\nSpeaker Bio:\nPhillip Christopher earned his B.S. in chemical engineering from University of California\, Santa Barbara in 2006 and his M.S and Ph.D. in chemical engineering from University of Michigan in 2011 working with Prof. Suljo Linic. From 2011-2017 he was an Assistant Professor at University of California\, Riverside. In 2017 he moved to the University of California\, Santa Barbara where he is a Professor and Vice Chair for Undergraduate Affairs in the Chemical Engineering Department and the Mellichamp Chair in Sustainable Manufacturing. He serves as a Senior Editor for ACS Energy Letters. His research interests are in sustainable chemical conversion\, heterogeneous catalysis by supported metals\, dynamic behavior of catalysts\, and photocatalysis by metal nanostructures. He has been given various awards including the Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers (PECASE)\, AIChE CRE Division Young Investigator Award\, and Ipatieff Prize from the ACS.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Anti-Racism in the Abroad Context
DESCRIPTION:\nStructural racism in the United States is the normalization and legitimization of an array of dynamics—historical\, cultural\, institutional\, and interpersonal—that routinely advantage whites while producing cumulative and chronic adverse outcomes for people of color. It is a system of hierarchy and inequity\, primarily characterized by white supremacy—the preferential treatment\, privilege\, and power for white people at the expense of other racially oppressed people. It is also important to recognize that racism is a global issue and continues to be perpetuated in societies across the globe and it manifests in many different ways at various levels. This anti-racism workshop in an abroad context aims to offer an entryway for students to engage in observing how racism plays out in different societies outside the United States\, utilizing examples\, particularly media representation\, that may reflect deeper messages\, and what it means to be anti-racist for American students who have been abroad or may be visiting\, studying\, or traveling abroad.\nThis workshop will engage participants in the following activities:\n\nBetter understanding of the phrase “anti-racism”\nLearning about race and its nuances\nRecognizing how culture can shape the development of racism and power structures\nSeeing how media around the world uphold oppression in different ways\nCreating action steps toward actively recognizing oppression abroad\n\nThis workshop is designed for U-M master’s students\, doctoral students\, and postdoctoral scholars on all three campuses\; therefore\, only U-M graduate students and postdoctoral scholars are permitted to register for this workshop. While this workshop is being facilitated on behalf of Rackham’s DEI Certificate Program\, it is open to all U-M graduate students and postdoctoral scholars. For faculty and staff\, please contact rackhampdeworkshops@umich.edu to ask if we can accommodate your attendance.\nRegistration is required at https://myumi.ch/M6D83.\n\nWe want to ensure full and equitable participation in our events.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CANCELED [DEICP] Anti-Racism in the Abroad Context
DESCRIPTION:Structural racism in the United States is the normalization and legitimization of an array of dynamics—historical\, cultural\, institutional\, and interpersonal—that routinely advantage whites while producing cumulative and chronic adverse outcomes for people of color. It is a system of hierarchy and inequity\, primarily characterized by white supremacy—the preferential treatment\, privilege\, and power for white people at the expense of other racially oppressed people. It is also important to recognize that racism is a global issue and continues to be perpetuated in societies across the globe and it manifests in many different ways at various levels. This anti-racism workshop in an abroad context aims to offer an entryway for students to engage in observing how racism plays out in different societies outside the United States\, utilizing examples\, particularly media representation\, that may reflect deeper messages\, and what it means to be anti-racist for American students who have been abroad or may be visiting\, studying\, or traveling abroad.\n\n\nThis workshop will engage participants in the following activities:\nBetter understanding of the phrase “anti-racism”\nLearning about race and its nuances\nRecognizing how culture can shape the development of racism and power structures\nSeeing how media around the world uphold oppression in different ways\nCreating action steps toward actively recognizing oppression abroad\nThis workshop is designed for U-M master's students\, doctoral students\, and postdoctoral scholars on all three campuses\; therefore\, only U-M graduate students and postdoctoral scholars are permitted to register for this workshop. While this workshop is being facilitated on behalf of Rackham’s DEI Certificate Program\, it is open to all U-M graduate students and postdoctoral scholars. For faculty and staff\, please contact rackhampdeworkshops@umich.edu to ask if we can accommodate your attendance.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Causal Inference under Stochastic Congestion with Stefan Wagner
DESCRIPTION:About the speaker: Stefan Wager is an associate professor of operations\, information\, and technology at Stanford Graduate School of Business and an associate professor of statistics (by courtesy). Professor Wager’s research lies at the intersection of causal inference\, optimization\, and statistical learning. He is particularly interested in developing new solutions to classical problems in statistics\, economics\, and decision-making that leverage recent developments in machine learning.\n\nAbstract: Whenever one runs randomized experiments in a service system\, stochastic congestion can arise from temporarily limited supply and/or demand. Such congestion gives rise to cross-unit interference between the waiting customers\, and analytic strategies that do not account for this interference may be biased. In this talk\, I will survey some recent advances on causal inference in settings with stochastic congestion.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Biomedical Engineering Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nHuman pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) offer the potential to generate large numbers of functional somatic cells for therapies. One approach to achieve this goal is to use transcription factors (TFs) to differentiate hPSCs into desired cell lineages. Using scRNA-seq\, we investigated TFs expressed in endothelial progenitors (EPs) derived from hPSCs and identified upregulated expression of SOXF factors SOX7\, SOX17\, and SOX18 in the EP population. To test whether overexpression of these factors increases differentiation efficiency\, we established inducible hPSC lines for each SOXF factor and found only SOX17 overexpression robustly increased the percentage of cells expressing CD34 and vascular endothelial cadherin (VEC). Intriguingly\, we discovered SOX17 overexpression alone was sufficient to generate CD34+VEC+CD31− cells\, and\, when combined with FGF2 treatment\, more than 90% of CD34+VEC+CD31+ EP was produced. These cells are capable of further differentiating into functional endothelial cells. To better assist directed differentiation\, precise insertion of fluorescent proteins into lineage-specific genes will be needed. However\, this approach presents challenges due to low knockin efficiency and difficulties in isolating targeted cells. To overcome these hurdles\, we present the modified mRNA (ModRNA)-based Activation for Gene Insertion and Knockin (MAGIK) method. MAGIK operates in two steps: first\, it uses a Cas9-2A-p53DD modRNA with a mini-donor plasmid (without a drug selection cassette) to significantly enhance efficiency. Second\, a deactivated Cas9 activator modRNA and a 'dead' guide RNA are used to temporarily activate the targeted gene\, allowing for live cell sorting of targeted cells. Consequently\, MAGIK eliminates the need for drug selection cassettes or labor-intensive single-cell colony screening\, expediting precise gene editing. We showed MAGIK can be utilized to insert fluorescent proteins into various genes\, including SOX17\, NKX6.1\, NKX2.5\, and PDX1\, across multiple hPSC lines. This underscores its robust performance and offers a promising solution for achieving knockin in hPSCs within a significantly shortened time frame.\n\nBio:\nDr. Lian is an Associate Professor of Biomedical Engineering & Biology at Penn State. His lab is working on engineering stem cell differentiation with small molecules and gene editing tools (modified mRNA-based CRISPR systems) to develop new cell-based therapies. Dr. Lian received his PhD from University of Wisconsin in 2012\, focusing on development of novel stem cell differentiation protocols. Dr. Lian's small-molecule cardiomyocyte differentiation method paper was awarded the Cozzarelli Prize from the National Academy of Science\, representing the best biomedical science paper in 2012 in PNAS. After independence in 2015\, he received several awards from BME society\, including Young Innovator Award from CMBE journal\, Junior Investigator Award from BMES advanced biomanufacturing meeting\, Rising Star Award from BMES cellular and molecular bioengineering conference. Dr. Lian also received awards from NIH and NSF\, including NIH Trailblazer Award\, and NSF CAREER award. ​​​​​​​\n\nZoom:\nhttps://umich.zoom.us/j/94337625486

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Department of Astronomy 2024-2025 Colloquium Series Presents:
DESCRIPTION:\"Exploring galactic nuclei with tidal disruption events\"\n\nTidal disruption events (TDEs) provide an exciting opportunity to study supermassive black holes (SMBHs) in quiescent galaxies and the stellar populations and dynamics in galactic nuclei. They test the limits of black hole accretion by regularly producing super-Eddington feeding rates\, and their emission encodes information about the properties of the disrupted star and SMBH. While these transients have long been theoretically predicted\, it is only in the past ~decade that they have been discovered observationally\, and the number of these observations is about to rise dramatically with the onset of LSST. I’ll discuss how we can combine theoretical models with the rising tide of observations to investigate the SMBH mass function and accretion physics\, look for SMBH binaries\, and study the properties of stars on size scales we cannot observe outside our own galactic neighborhood.

DESCRIPTION:This event is part of our ongoing Thursday Seminar Series.\n\nAbout this seminar: Few issues have been as intriguing and exciting to scientists as the origin and evolution of Neotropical Biodiversity. Yet relatively little is still known about the evolutionary relationships among Neotropical organisms and the factors that have shaped the high species diversity found in this region. Integrative approaches\, including information from systematics\, ecology\, evolution\, geology\, and climatology are crucial to better understand the drivers of species diversity. To improve our understanding of the history of Neotropical biodiversity\, I combine detailed studies focused on key Neotropical lineages with broad-scale studies that look at biotas as a whole.

SUMMARY:Presentation:GCC: London\, UK - London Through the Lens Info Session
DESCRIPTION:Join us to learn more about the CGIS study abroad program Global Course Connections (GCC): London\, UK - London Trough the Lens!\n\nGCCs offer a unique opportunity to take what students learn on campus at U-M and apply it abroad in a fun and exciting hands-on class taught by a U-M professor. GCCs include two components: An on-campus course during the winter semester and a 3-week\, off-campus field experience that takes place during the following spring (May-June).\n\n\"With London and the seaside cities of Brighton and London as our setting\, students will develop a sense of the distinct convergences of cultures and global identities that make up this region of England. The traditions of pleine aire painting along with the numerous approaches to street photography and the observational documentary are starting points for us to consider as we make our way through the streets of the city. Each neighborhood along our journey offers up different stories and histories and each provide opportunities for the students to engage with and reflect upon their own sense of place and identity within that place. What does arriving\, as an outside observer\, bring to the vocabulary of cities? Are we flaneurs (Baudelaire’s notion that we can be casual observers of modern\, urban life)? Or are we more engaged with the city as a setting for our own individual narratives or diaristic entries? How has the history of England’s Colonial reach shaped the modern city of London? In addition to our planned outings\, students will be encouraged to do their own photographic walkabouts during their stay in London.\"

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Making “MENA”: Histories of the “Middle East\,” Race\, and the US Census
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: This year\, the White House unexpectedly announced major revisions to its race and ethnicity standards – the first in 27 years – most notably including a Middle Eastern or North African (MENA) category. These standards are already being rolled out in federal policy\, and have the potential to make a major impact on US society\, not least of all higher education. However\, these recommendations flew in the face of expert and community stakeholders and historical precedent by excluding transnational\, indigenous groups like Armenians\, many Arab groups coded as “Black\,” and other Muslim groups on the region’s geographic and epistemic peripheries. This talk will therefore examine the “Middle East” as a recurring site of ambiguity and anxiety within foreign policy\, academic disciplines\, and domestic legislation that congeal around diaspora communities. Taking a deconstructive and intersectional approach to race science\, discriminatory US policies\, and community voices\, the talk will interrogate the historical record while affirming the necessity -- and pitfalls -- of a MENA category.\n   \n   Bio: Thomas Simsarian Dolan has just begun a position as Lead Historian at the Armenian General Benevolent Union\, founded in Cairo in 1906 and still the largest Armenian philanthropy. A faculty affiliate in Middle Eastern and South Asian Studies at Emory and the Center for Arts\, Migration\, and Entrepreneurship at the University of Florida\, his research focuses on MENA migrations across the Atlantic World\, and especially the racialization of these migrants in academia\, popular culture and the law. His work has been supported by a range of national research organizations\, including the Bentley Historical Library and Center for Arab American Philanthropy\, and he previously completed a year as a Fulbright US Teaching Scholar History at American University in Cairo\, after earning degrees from George Washington University\, NYU\, and Yale.\n   \n   \nCosponsors:\nDepartment of American Culture\nProgram in Arab and Muslim American Studies\nCenter for Middle Eastern and North African Studies\nCenter for Racial Justice\nLSA DEI Office\nInstitute for the Humanities\n\nRegister here:   https://umich.zoom.us/j/94676302477

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Probability Seminar: Crystallization of the Aztec diamond
DESCRIPTION:Random planar dimer models (or equivalently tiling models) have been a subject of extensive research in mathematics and physics for several decades. Recent progress has been made in understanding the behavior of planar dimer models with periodic edge weights\, particularly models on the subgraph of the square lattice known as the Aztec diamond graph. In this talk\, I will discuss the effect of a temperature parameter in the doubly periodic Aztec diamond dimer model in the zero temperature limit. In this limit\, the Aztec diamond undergoes crystallization: The limit shape converges to a piecewise linear function we call the tropical limit shape\, and the local fluctuations are governed by the Gibbs measures with the slope dictated by the tropical limit shape for low enough temperature. \n\nThe tropical limit shape and the tropical arctic curve (consisting of ridges of the crystal) are described in terms of a tropical curve and a tropical action function on that curve\, which are the tropical analogs of the spectral curve and the action function that describe the finite-temperature models. The tropical curve is explicit in terms of the edge weights\, and the tropical action function is a solution to Kirchhoff's problem on the tropical curve.\n\nBased on joint work with Alexei Borodin.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Student DGT: Poincaré duality groups
DESCRIPTION:The Poincaré duality theorem— that if M is an n-dimensional oriented\, closed manifold\, then the \"dimension i” cohomology groups are isomorphic to the “codimension i” homology groups— has an analogue in the theory of group cohomology. This talk will give a brief introduction to group (co)homology before discussing the analogue of Poincaré duality for groups (known as Bieri-Eckmann duality). If there is time we will give an application to the cohomology of SL_n(Z)\, a current area of research.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Musicology Lecture Series: Sergio Ospina-Romero
DESCRIPTION:The circulation of sound recordings became a matter of everyday life in Latin America and the Caribbean early in the twentieth century. While the imperial operations of Victor\, Columbia\, Edison\, Odeon\, and other businesses enhanced transnational networks for the global dissemination of music commodities\, recorded sound also gained cultural currency because of its increasing relevance in all kinds of social spaces. \n\nBy digging into a variety of scenarios of music consumption and into the contents of sound recordings themselves\, this talk examines the haphazard circulation of talking machines and records in Latin America and the Caribbean between 1877 and 1925\, showing how\, ultimately\, the very tenets of everyday life became increasingly and inevitably entangled with those of recorded sound.\n\nPresented by the Department of Musicology\; free and open to the public.\n\nGUEST SPEAKER BIO\n\nSERGIO OSPINA-ROMERO is Assistant Professor of Musicology at the Jacobs School of Music at Indiana University. He is the author of three books\, *Dolor que canta* (2017)\, *La conquista discográfica de América Latina* (2024)\, and *Talking Machine Empires* (forthcoming)\, as well as of several articles\, book chapters\, and short pieces on sound reproduction technologies\, Latin American music\, and jazz that have appeared in books\, journals\, and websites across the Americas. He has taught at Universidad Nacional de Colombia\, Universidad de los Andes\, and Cornell University\, and is the recipient of various awards and recognitions\, including a Fulbright Scholarship\, Cornell University’s Donald J. Grout Memorial Prize\, the Klaus P. Waschmann Prize of the Society for Ethnomusicology\, an honorary mention in the Premio de Musicología Casa de las Américas\, and the inaugural Arts and Humanities Presidential Fellowship of Indiana University. Sergio is the pianist and director of the Latin jazz quartet *Palonegro* and of the salsa band *La salsoteca.*

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Penny Stamps Speaker Series - Guadalupe Maravilla
DESCRIPTION:Combining sculpture\, painting\, performative acts\, and installation\, Guadalupe Maravilla grounds his transdisciplinary practice in activism and healing. Engaging a wide variety of visual cultures\, Maravilla’s work is autobiographical\, referencing his unaccompanied\, undocumented migration to the United States due to the Salvadoran Civil War. Across all media\, Maravilla explores how the systemic abuse of immigrants physically manifests in the body\, reflecting on his own battle with cancer. \nMaravilla is also a teacher and mutual-aid organizer\; his work extends beyond his sculptural practice to consider forms of community-based healing and regeneration. He frequently activates his artistic objects through performances and sound baths – a meditative experience where participants are “bathed” in sound frequencies meant to encourage therapeutic and restorative healing. \nMaravilla’s work is in the permanent collections of the Museum of Modern Art\, New York\, NY\; the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum\, New York\, NY\; the Whitney Museum of American Art\, New York\, NY\; Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía\, Madrid\, Spain\; the Institute of Contemporary Art\, Miami\, FL\; the Henie Onstad Kunstsenter\, Oslo\, Norway\; and the Brooklyn Museum\, Brooklyn\, NY\, among others. He has received numerous awards and fellowships including a Guggenheim Foundation Fellowship\, 2019\; Soros Fellowship: Art Migration and Public Space\, 2019\; MAP Fund Grant\, 2019\; Franklin Furnace Fund\, 2018\; Virginia Museum of Fine Arts Fellowship\, 2018\; Art Matters Fellowship\, 2017\; Creative Capital Grant\, 2016\; Joan Mitchell Emerging Artist Grant\, 2016\; and The Robert Mapplethorpe Foundation Award 2003. He has presented solo exhibitions at the Museum of Modern Art\, New York\, NY\; Brooklyn Museum\, Brooklyn\, NY\; Museum of Contemporary Art\, Denver\, CO\; Henie Onstad Kunstsenter\, Oslo\, Norway\; Socrates Sculpture Park\, New York\, NY\; P·P·O·W\, New York\, NY\; and the Institute of Contemporary Art\, Miami\, FL\, among others. \nMaravilla's work is currently included in the 12th Göteborg International Biennial for Contemporary Art: forms of the surrounding futures\, Gothenburg\, Sweden and the 35th Bienal De São Paulo: choreographies of the impossible\, São Paulo\, Brazil.\nPresented in Partnership with UMMA. This project was made possible by a grant from the Arts Initiative at the University of Michigan.\nSeries presenting partners: Detroit PBS and PBS Books. Media partner: Michigan Radio.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Revisiting Architecture in Translation
DESCRIPTION:THURSDAY\, NOVEMBER 7\n\n5:30-7:00 pm Keynote: Esra Akcan \n\nEsra Akcan is Professor and Director of Graduate Studies in the Department of Architecture at Cornell University and board member at the Institute for Comparative Modernities. Akcan's research on modern and contemporary architecture and urbanism foregrounds the intertwined histories of Europe\, West Asia\, and Northeast Africa and offers new ways to understand architecture's role in global\, social\, and environmental justice. She has written extensively on critical and postcolonial theory\, racism\, immigration\, reparations and transitional justice\, architectural photography\, translation\, neoliberalism\, and global history. Her book Architecture in Translation: Germany\, Turkey and the Modern House (Duke University Press\, 2012) offers a new way to understand the global movement of architecture that extends the notion of translation beyond language to visual fields. It advocates a commitment to a new culture of translatability from below and in multiple directions for cosmopolitan ethics and global justice.\"

SUMMARY:Reception / Open House:\"Touch\" Opening Reception
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for the opening of the exhibition *Touch *by artist Ericka Lopez. \n\nEricka Lopez is a visual artist born in Mexico and living in Los Angeles. Lopez lost her sight at an early age and is mostly non-verbal. This exhibition of tactile assemblage works and gestural coiled pots are created by the artist through touch and texture\, colored by memory. The works are sensory\, physical\, immediate\, reaffirming\, and deeply expressive. Viewers to this exhibition are invited to touch the work. \n\nDuring her residency\, the artist and her support team\, which includes her mother and translator\, will engage directly with students in the exhibition space\, offering a transformative experience based on human expression and connection through art.  Because Ericka feels most comfortable when she is working\, she plans to make artwork with students as part of the class engagements with the exhibition.\n\nAbout Ericka Lopez\nBorn 1987 in Mexico\, Ericka Lopez has been making art at Tierra del Sol Studios since 2019. Working across ceramic\, fiber\, and mixed media constructions\, Lopez’s practice is centralized around her exploration of touch. Lopez was born with limited vision and is now completely blind. Lopez trained in massage therapy and previously volunteered at a soup kitchen when an encounter with Tierra’s ceramics studio shifted her trajectory toward fine art. Her masterful command of clay hand-building techniques enables Lopez to create intricate\, dynamic\, and organically structured coil vessels. Lopez’s works are informed by her finite recollection of color\; she requests specific shades and combinations of glazes that generate spontaneous\, distinctive surfaces when fired. This intuitive approach continues in her fiber wall works and mixed media sculptures. Utilizing punch rug embroidery\, Lopez creates abstract fields of yarn and found objects\, often repeatedly punching through the same area to yield densely layered sections. Lopez has learned to identify the color of her materials via scent and feel\, a process that is difficult to put into words. Her mixed media sculptures are created almost entirely by touch\, consisting of threads\, buttons\, beads\, fabric scraps\, and found objects instinctively stitched together using simple sewing techniques. Lopez hopes her works can be experienced through an inquiry of touch.\n\nEricka Lopez has exhibited her artwork at Laband Gallery and Tierra del Sol Gallery in Los Angeles\, CA. Lopez’s debut solo exhibition\, “Continuous Touch\,” was curated by jill moniz for Tierra del Sol Gallery in the Spring of 2023. She has had works acquired by notable private collections such as that of Beth DeWoody and by the Kleefeld Contemporary Art Museum at UC Long Beach.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:Hapa
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a two short screenings\, followed by discussion:\n\nHapa (https://myumi.ch/ErdZ5)\nby Shal Ngo (2024)\nThis 7 minute film examines “what does it mean to be biracial?” Vietnamese-American filmmaker Shal Ngo writes\, “I’ve struggled with this question my entire life. I partnered up with Tribeca Film Festival and 23andMe to try and find the answer with my short film: Hapa. It’s a very personal story that digs deep into my family roots\, DNA\, and identity. I filmed across the USA and Vietnam\, and combined documentary\, stop-motion animation\, and stream-of-conscious narration to put it all together.”\n\nBill of Rights for Mixed Heritage (https://myumi.ch/M6mZ3)\nby Dr. Maria Root (2021)\nThis two-and-a-half minute video was first presented on Loving Day\, a day that celebrates the 1967 US Supreme Court decision that legalized interracial marriage in all 50 states.\n\nSee the full list of events offered as part of the series Exploring Mixed Race and Interracial Family Experiences (https://myumi.ch/qV2xE).
