SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:TRANSLATION IN A MOBILE WORLD: On language\, justice and social cohesion
DESCRIPTION:Friday\, October 18\, 2019 \n3 pm in 2435 North Quad \nFree and open to the public\n\nGlobalization\, migration\, sustainable development are some of the key issues in today’s world and they appear as recurring keywords in cultural debates. The role played by languages in all of these areas\, however\, is often underestimated\, with little attention paid to how translation and interpreting can support social cohesion and social justice in increasingly multilingual communities. Drawing on the experience of working with different constituencies\, from migrant artists in the US and Australia to health specialists in Namibia and Zambia\, this talk will draw attention to translation as a constitutive practice of our everyday lives and to translation awareness as a vital \"citizenship skill.\"\n\nLoredana Polezzi is Professor of Translation Studies in the School of Modern Languages\, Cardiff University\, and President of the International Association for Translation and Intercultural Studies (IATIS). Her work focuses on how geographical and social mobilities are connected to the theories and practices of translation\, self-translation and multilingualism. With Rita Wilson\, she is co-editor of leading international journal The Translator.\n\nThis event kicks off the annual Translate-a-thon on October 18-19 coordinated by the Language Resource Center and co-sponsored by the Department of Comparative Literature.  For more information on Translate-a-thon 2019\, and to register\, see http://myumi.ch/J2V8B

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Landscapes of Racial Dispossession and Control: Tracing the development of early career research on racial health inequities
DESCRIPTION:Racial inequities in health have been documented and described in the public health literature for decades\, yet these inequities have remained or even increased. In order to move forward\, we must understand the role of cultural and structural racism upon which these inequities are built. Cultural racism shapes our society's structure and ultimately shapes the answers to the questions: \"Whose life counts? Who is worthy of a healthy life?\" In this presentation\, Dr. Hicken will discuss the interwoven nature of both career trajectory\, as a former PSC predoctoral trainee\, and the development of her science on cultural and structural racism and health inequities. Specifically\, she will outline her theory on racism and health and describe her collaborative data project designed to empirically examine this theory.\n\nBIO:\nDr. Margaret Hicken is on faculty at the Institute for Social Research at the University of Michigan where she serves as director of the UM RacismLab\, an interdisciplinary research collected designed to facilitate the career progression of scholar who study cultural and structural racism. She is also director of the Landscapes of Racism Dispossession and Control data project\, supported with funding from NIDDK\, NIMHD\, and NIA\, to examine the ways in which historical and contemporary forms of racial control have resulted in contemporary health inequities.\n\nPSC Brown Bag seminars highlight recent research in population studies and serve as a focal point for building our research community.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Wellness in Color
DESCRIPTION:As students of color at the University of Michigan\, some experiences can cause or worsen stress\, anxiety\, and isolation. Everyday experiences of racism\, discrimination\, or just subtly being made to feel “different” or like we don’t belong can cause our academics and social lives to suffer. This negatively impacts our mental wellbeing. Many students of color face the challenge of finding supportive and trusting resources that relate to their mental health experiences. Finding the solution to this lack of support has been a conversation that's been halted on campus for too long. At Wellness in Color\, we aim to tackle this challenge by facilitating dialogues to initiate the mental health conversation in our community. \n\nWe invite you to join us to talk about how students of color have persevered despite difficult moments at Michigan and how faculty and staff can play a role in creating a learning environment where students of color can thrive.\n\nThis student pre-conference is designed and facilitated by U-M students of color as part of the national Young\, Gifted\, @Risk\, and Resilient Conference which aims to promote the mental health and well being among students of color. \n\nSponsors: \nThe Steve Fund\, National Center for Institutional Diversity (NCID)\, Program on Intergroup Relations (IGR)\, Trotter Multicultural Center (TMC)\, and the Multi-Ethnic Student Affairs (MESA) office.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Young\, Gifted\, @Risk & Resilient
DESCRIPTION:Mark your calendars for the 2019 Young\, Gifted\, @Risk\, & Resilient (YGARR) national conference at the University of Michigan! This day-long conference will bring together leading researchers\, practitioners\, administrators\, faculty\, and students to focus on campus climate and mental health among young adult/college students of color.\n\nThe current dialogue on mental health among college students has become a nationwide priority. Students of color in particular are tasked with navigating unique circumstances that can negatively influence their mental health\, including racial/ethnic discrimination disparities in service utilization that can be exacerbated by discrimination experiences\, treatment related to immigration status\, and racialized sexual and gender marginalization. Yet\, there is a relative dearth of scholarship specifically focused on the roles and impacts of campus climates characterized by these types of experiences on the mental health and well-being of college students of color. Such gaps in knowledge inhibit our ability to fully provide high quality\, responsive\, and equitable and inclusive supports and services.\n\nThis national conference is a collaboration between The Steve Fund\, the National Center for Institutional Diversity (NCID) and the Office of Diversity\, Equity and Inclusion (ODEI) at the University of Michigan. The conference curriculum is informed by the longstanding work of The Steve Fund and the latest research and insights from scholars and practitioners across the country. Conference participants will explore national and campus socio-political contexts and take away best practices in order to foster spaces and places that promote emotional well-being for students of color. We hope you will join us as we work towards advancing research and informing practice to better support students of color across the country.\n\nWe welcome you to visit the conference website to learn more.  If you have any questions\, please email Laura Sánchez-Parkinson at lasanche@umich.edu.\n\n#YGARR2019 #SteveFundUmich #ResilientMichigan

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:When Your Childhood Favorites are Problematic: Robinson Crusoe and Our Ongoing Relationship with Troubled Media
DESCRIPTION:Daniel Defoe’s novel “The Life and Strange Surprizing Adventures of Robinson Crusoe\,” lives in the popular imagination as a heroic adventure story\; but amid the adventure\, the novel presents a worldview that is explicitly racist\, imperialist\, and hypermasculine. This is true for other items in popular culture like television\, movies\, and music.\n\nJoin the Library Diversity Counsel and the U-M Library DEIA team as we have a structured conversation around Robinson Crusoe and other forms of media that have popular or favorable legacies\, but contain problematic messages and content.\nFor more information and questions\, please contact Thomas Dickens\, Diversity\, Equity\, and Inclusion Program Manager at dickenst@umich.edu.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Diversity and Inclusion Counts: How Quantifying Diversity and Inclusion Can Influence Racial Inequality in Higher Education
DESCRIPTION:A semester never goes by without news highlighting some aspect of racial inequality occurring on our campuses\, such as disparities in graduation rates\, who pursues different majors\, interpersonal experiences such as microaggressions\, or blatant racist actions that mark the campus climate. Many of our universities invest in promoting diversity and inclusion\, including monitoring progress in different areas\, but what if some of our approaches can hide or even reproduce racial inequality on campus?\n\nW. Carson Byrd\, a 2019-2020 NCID scholar-in-residence\, will discuss a snippet of his current research examining how the processes and policies at universities can reinforce racial inequality on our campuses\, particularly when campus units rely on numbers-driven approaches to both measure and monitor progress of diversity and inclusion.\n\nW. Carson Byrd is an associate professor of sociology at the University of Louisville and a 2019 NCID scholar-in-residence. Dr. Byrd's research examines how colleges and universities can simultaneously operate as centers for social mobility and engines of inequality with particular attention to the reproduction of racial inequalities on college campuses. He is currently working on a new book tentatively titled Behind the Diversity Numbers: What Makes a University “Too White” and How to Change Racial Inequality in Higher Education that examines how universities’ uses of quantitative approaches to diversity and inclusion can shape racial inequality on campuses. He is also the author of Poison in the Ivy: Race Relations and the Reproduction of Inequality on Elite College Campuses (Rutgers University Press)\, an examination of how college students’ social interactions influence what they think about race and inequality\, and co-editor of Intersectionality and Higher Education: Identity and Inequality on College Campuses (Rutgers University Press)\, a collection of intersectional studies of college students\, faculty\, and staff.\n\nSponsored by the National Center for Institutional Diversity\, Race and Racial Ideologies Workshop in the Department of Sociology and the Department of Sociology.\n\nThe National Center for Institutional Diversity Research and Scholarship Seminar Series features scholars who have furthered our understanding of historical and contemporary social issues related to identity\, difference\, culture\, representation\, power\, oppression\, and inequality — as they occur and affect individuals\, groups\, communities\, and institutions. The series also highlights how research and scholarship can be applied to address current and contemporary diversity\, equity\, and inclusion issues in higher education and society.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:2019 Ta-You Wu Lecture in Physics | Generating High-Intensity\, Ultrashort Optical Pulses
DESCRIPTION:With the invention of lasers\, the intensity of a light wave was increased by orders of magnitude over what had been achieved with a light bulb or sunlight. This much higher intensity led to new phenomena being observed\, such as violet light coming out when red light went into the material. After Gérard Mourou and I developed chirped pulse amplification\, also known as CPA\, the intensity again increased by more than a factor of 1\,000 and it once again made new types of interactions possible between light and matter. We developed a laser that could deliver short pulses of light that knocked the electrons off their atoms. This new understanding of laser-matter interactions\, led to the development of new machining techniques that are used in laser eye surgery or micromachining of glass used in cell phones.\n\nYou may find more details: lsa.umich.edu/physics/special-lecture

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Rethinking the University: On Discipline\, Excellence\, and Solidarity
DESCRIPTION:We are excited to invite you to the Global Theories of Critique's second event of the academic year\, with our theme for this year being \"On the Failed and Marginal\,\" focusing on the excluded and undermined from and in Euro-American histories. Challenging these histories or going against and beyond them demands an interrogation of the space from which we think\, write\, and act: the university and its various arms. Following this thinking\, our second event will be a workshop on \"Rethinking the University: On Discipline\, Excellence\, and Solidarity\" with Professor Reginald Jackson\, to be held on Thursday\, Oct. 31st\, 4-6 pm\, room 1014 Tisch Hall\, dinner included.\n\nProfessor Jackson is an Associate Professor of Pre-modern Japanese Literature at U of M's department of Asian Languages and Cultures\, and has been long committed to thinking and practicing knowledge production in relation to solidarity with the marginalized and forgotten\, within both the university's own space and its many outsides. As such\, ahead of this event\, we recommend reading Professor Jackson's recently published article\, titled \"Solidarity's Indiscipline: Regarding Miyoshi's Pedagogical Legacy\,\" along with two theoretical pieces he is in engaging with. All readings are available here\, and we recommend reading them in this order: \n\nReadings\, “The Idea of Excellence”\nJackson\, “Solidarity’s Indiscipline: Regarding Miyoshi's Pedagogical Legacy” \nMoten and Harney\, “The University and the Undercommons” (optional) \n\nAdditionally\, if you plan on attending this event\, please RSVP here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSd9zWJXZZnlGwM1-MIwVj7GNA5DZ_vnK-KvGxWzV26Is898Vw/viewform. We would also very much appreciate circulating this invite with any student\, department or anyone else who might be interested in this event. \n\nThis event and the Global Theories of Critique project are part of a partnership between the University of Michigan and the American University in Cairo (AUC) focusing on Public Humanities in the Global South supported by a Grant from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation to AUC. Please get in touch with Hakem Al-Rustom (hakemaa@umich.edu) or Raya Naamneh (rnaamneh@umich.edu) with any questions.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Academic Innovation at Michigan (AIM) for DEI
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Friday\, November 1 from 12:00 p.m. to 1:30 p.m. in the Ehrlicher Room at North Quad for AIM for DEI. The team for the Academic Innovation software tool\, Tandem\, will give a presentation. Lunch will be provided. Please register for this event if you plan to attend. \n\nAbstract:\n\nTeam-based learning is an effective pedagogy that has the potential to increase student learning and motivation\, but it can also sometimes lead to inequitable or even toxic experiences.  We know that working well on diverse teams is an important skill\, but generic messages addressing cultural humility and pro-teamwork behaviors often fall short. \n\nTandem is a web-based\, customizable tool that provides research-based instruction and support for student teams at scale. Messages informed by an assessment of individuals’ and teams’ needs allow for brief “coaching” that can encourage students to (re)consider teammates’ perspectives and redirect maladaptive team patterns. Short lessons including opportunities for applying ideas to current teamwork experiences via reflection are pushed out regularly throughout the semester. Example lesson topics include: imposter syndrome\, equality in group conversation\, and tools for supporting collaboration.\n\nTandem can identify problematic DEI-related team issues and call them out for faculty. For example\, in the first year engineering course we co-teach\, women sometimes complete more of the project management and communication work\, and men sometimes do more of the physical building. That pattern is not meaningful if it only happens with a single team: many characteristics of the individuals on the team affect who does which tasks\, and gender is certainly not the sole determinant. However\, an instructor might wish to know about such patterns at the class level\, or even in the discipline more generally\, and Tandem includes algorithms to identify such information. \n\nTandem Team Bios:\n\nLaura K. Alford is a Lecturer and Research Investigator in the Naval Architecture & Marine Engineering Department in the College of Engineering. She researches ways to use data-informed analysis of students' performance and perceptions of classroom environment to support DEI-based curricula improvements.\n\nRobin Fowler is a Lecturer in the Technical Communication in the College of Engineering. She enjoys serving as a \"communication coach\" to students throughout the curriculum\, and she's especially excited to work with first year and senior students\, as well as engineering project teams\, as they navigate the more open-ended communication decisions involved in describing the products of open-ended design scenarios. She researches student experiences in team-based pedagogy.\n\nStephanie Sheffield is a Lecturer in Technical Communication in the College of Engineering. She currently teaches senior-level courses in Biomedical Engineering\, Chemical Engineering\, and Electrical Engineering & Computer Science. Her research interests are focused on better understanding and improving the learning experiences of the students in her courses\, with current emphasis on the ways in which students engage with online resources and student attitudes towards working in teams in DBTC courses.\n\nAIM for DEI is an all new event series hosted by the Center for Academic Innovation that will explore how technology and innovation impact the inclusivity and equity of the learning experiences we create for our residential\, online and global learners.

SUMMARY:Reception / Open House:Dia De La Muertos
DESCRIPTION:You are cordially invited to this year’s “Dia de Los Muertos” event taking place on November 1st from 5:30 PM to 7:30 PM in the School of Public Health’s Community Room 1680. MENA (Middle Eastern and North African) Public Health\, La Salud\, and PHSAD (Public Health Students of African Descent) have partnered to present a Dia de Los Muertos event which is meant to commemorate all the lives lost to any discrimination or racism in the U.S. and internationally. \n\nDia de Los Muertos stems from Mexican traditions and originates from Aztec practices. We use this day to celebrate\, not mourn\, the lives of our beloved departed and rejoice by sharing ofrendas that remember the individual as they were in life. Although this festive occasion is meant to welcome our loved ones\, there are many lives that were forgotten both in life and death. These lives were victimized\, racialized\, and prosecuted during life as a result of structural racism and exclusion. This year\, we hope to raise awareness for the lives that were silenced and empower future practitioners to advocate for these communities and prevent future injustices.\nWe celebrate in community to provide space for the living and dead\, and invite you to join us for an evening of activities\, dialogue\, food and performances! Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Liberty in North Korea l Creating LiNKs: Humanity Behind Another World
DESCRIPTION:*****This event is FREE! *******\nWe want diverse perspectives to be available to all ♥ \n\nLiberty in North Korea at the University of Michigan is excited to invite two North Korean advocacy fellows from the LiNK HQ\, Jeongyol Ri and Ilhyeok Kim\, come to campus on November 6th\, 2019! \n\nJoin us as they reflect on their first-hand experiences as North Korean escapees\, and their adjustment after relocation. \n\n━━\nJeongyol Ri was born in 1998\, and spent his childhood in Pyongsong. Math was his most notable passion— by the time he was in elementary school\, he had already in mastered a middle school math curriculum. He later went on to represent the the North Korean team for the International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO). Over the course of four competitions\, he had obtained a four silver medals. His success led the North Korean government to offer him a job\, but he did not want to work for the regime. The Hong Kong IMO was Jeongyol’s last chance to defect while abroad\; he was only 18 years old. While the rest of his team was packing for the return home\, he snuck out and sought asylum at the South Korean consulate. In 2016 Jeongyol resettled in South Korea and in 2019 started Seoul National University. \n\nIlhyeok Kim was born in 1995 in Saetbyeol when the famine had just begun. As a result of the famine\, his father became a broker who helped defectors in South Korea send money to relatives still in North Korea. When Ilhyeok was 12\, his father was caught and imprisoned\, but was eventually released for owning a Chinese cell phone. From that day onward\, the government kept a close eye on his family. Despite the repercussions they would face if they escaped\, they bravely decided to flee. In 2011 they arrived in South Korea. Ilhyeok aspires to work for the United Nations one day.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Two Spirit Identity: Indigenous Gender & Sexuality
DESCRIPTION:Rebecca Lynn is a Two Spirit artist from the Little Traverse Bay Bands of Odawa Indians\, in Harbor Springs\, MI. She studied sociology at the University of Michigan and is currently the owner and beader of QueerKwe Designs. Becca’s work aims to create representation for LGBTQ+ & Two Spirit indigenous folks by combining modern pride flags into her traditional beadwork. You can check out her work and mission on Instagram\, @queerkwe\, and Facebook\, QueerKwe Designs. \n\nThis lecture will explore the complexities of gender and sexuality within Native American communities and the ways these views continue to be impacted by colonization efforts. Traditionally fluid and accepting nations were forced to conform to rigid\, Western binaries through assimilation tactics\, such as compulsory Christianity and Native American Boarding Schools. Today\, LGBTQ2S+ and gender non conforming Indigenous people are reclaiming their space and traditionally sacred roles within their communities. Join us in learning about the emergence of Two Spirit identity\, a contemporary term created to reject colonial binaries and embrace traditionally fluid ideas of gender and sexuality within our Native American communities.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Being a Solo Person in an Organization – Coalition Building for Creating Change
DESCRIPTION:The workshop is from 2-3:30\, followed by a networking reception until 4:00.\n\nThere are several psychological and professional considerations that solo persons can use to survive in organizations and create change. The objectives of this workshop are (a) to focus on one professional consideration\, namely\, coalition building across social identity lines\, and (b) to reflect on how three psychological considerations based on the social psychologist Serge Moscovici’s work can be utilized to create change. Part 1 will be to create a better understanding of the differences\, but also the similarities we have with others and how our own social identity and cultural background could potentially limit us in building successful coalitions. Part 2 will introduce Moscovici’s work concerning how solo persons need to be persistent and consistent and have the self-confidence to bring about change. Participants will have an opportunity to discuss how these principles can be applied to their own situation and share strategies that might result in increasing diversity\, equity\, and inclusion in their own organizational environment

SUMMARY:Film Screening:Veterans Week - Lioness Documentary and Discussion
DESCRIPTION:Lioness presents the untold story of the first group of women soldiers in US history to be sent into direct ground combat\, in violation of official policy. Told through intimate accounts\, journal excerpts\, archive footage\, as well as interviews with military commanders\, the film follows five women who served together for a year in Iraq. With captivating detail\, this probing documentary reveals the unexpected course of events that began with using US women soldiers to defuse tensions with local civilians\, but resulted in the women's fighting in some of the bloodiest counter-insurgency battles of the war. Together the women's candid narratives and scenes from their lives back home form a portrait of the emotional and psychological effects of war from a female point of view. Lioness is the first film to bridge the gap between perception and reality of the role women in the military are playing in Iraq\, capturing an historical turning point for American society.\n\nDocumentary followed by discussion by Cassie Michael:  U-M student\, Marine veteran and participant the Lioness program.

SUMMARY:Performance:Indigenous Healing in Action
DESCRIPTION:Indigenous Healing in Action will highlight Native artistic expression in many forms communicating the healing power of movement\, art\, and storytelling for this community. This event will feature University of Michigan's own Dr. Bethany Hughes's work in native performance\, The Aadizookaan's Sacramento Knoxx\, and Māria Apera-Jones of Wellington\, New Zealand.  Our hope is to gain further understanding of how indigenous peoples locally as well as abroad relate to movement and experience these artists' usage of traditional knowledge systems as a way to spread wellness to their communities and themselves. \n\nThe Aadizookaan's Sacramento Knoxx shares their perspective through creative storytelling. Aadizookaan means “the sacred spirit of the story.” They use ancestral indigenous-based knowledge systems to produce storytelling experiences via a variety of methods including music\, film\, and design. \n\nMāria Apera-Jones\, Pōneke Women’s Rugby and Wellington Indoor Netball U23’s Black\, Drill and Field Coach is traveling from Wellington\, New Zealand. She is to explain how action has been a part of her healing and survival as well as perform with The University of Michigan’s Women's Rugby Football club. Māria has been instrumental in uniting communities through physicality\, Te Reo Maori\, and cultural tradition.  She creates a synonymous expectation that brings pakeha and Pasifika\, Aboriginal and Indigenous peoples together. Her strength is a tribute to the future of a united community. She is a testament of how individuality through culture breads a greater community: whanau/family. \n\nAs we combine these acts\, we can showcase indigenous art in many forms\, while also highlighting how art can have a therapeutic effect on those participating in its creation and those watching and experiencing it. We want to be able to honor the struggle of native communities across the world while celebrating these communities’ strength and resilience. We also want to emphasize the commonality all communities have when it comes to the use of art and movement as a form of healing and connection to others in order to bring indigenous and non-indigenous communities together.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Michigan Pre-College and Youth Outreach Conference (PCC)
DESCRIPTION:The annual Michigan Pre-College and Youth Outreach Conference (PCC) brings together leaders in education\, workforce development\, and government from around the state to cast a spotlight on the important role postsecondary institutions and community partners play in promoting college access.\n\nThe theme this year is Inclusion and Innovation in College Access: Cultivating Michigan Youth. We are inviting scholars\, researchers and practitioners to examine the challenges to postsecondary attainment and success\, explore opportunities to address these issues\, and share the impact of promising approaches.\n\nThe Keynote speaker this year will be Dr. Kedra Ishop\, Vice Provost for Enrollment Management at the University of Michigan – Ann Arbor. She is a nationally recognized expert\, speaker\, and advisor on issues in higher education related to diversity\, affordability\, assessment\, admissions\, and enrollment.\n\nThis annual one day conference rotates among colleges and universities across the state. Representatives from many colleges and universities\, as well as other community partners\, contribute to its planning.\n\nPostsecondary education remains the best way for youth to equip themselves with the knowledge and skills needed to succeed in our evolving global landscape. While 70% of jobs in Michigan now require training beyond high school\, the state lags behind the nation’s average for college attainment and fewer than a quarter of the state’s high school graduates are college-ready.

DESCRIPTION:Positive Links Speaker Series\nAre Diversity Initiatives Effective?\nLisa M. Leslie\n\nMonday\, November 18\, 2019\n4:00-5:00 p.m.\nFree and open to the public.\n\nRegister here: http://myumi.ch/QAA1W\n\nMichigan Ross Campus\nRoss Building\n701 Tappan \nRobertson Auditorium\nAnn Arbor\, MI 48109-1234\n\nPositive Links:\nThe Positive Links Speaker Series\, presented by Michigan Ross’ Center for Positive Organizations\, offers inspiring and practical research-based strategies for building organizations that are high performing and bring out the best in its people.

These initiatives at times not only fail to result in the intended consequence of increased diversity and inclusion\, but also produce unintended consequences that undermine their effectiveness. In this presentation\, Leslie will describe the unintended consequences diversity initiatives can produce and provide examples of how even well-intentioned efforts to foster diversity and inclusion can go astray. She will also discuss strategies for making diversity initiatives more effective and thus better leveraging the positive consequences of diversity for individuals\, organizations\, and societies.\n\nAbout Leslie:\nLisa M. Leslie is an Associate Professor of Management and Organizations at the Stern School of Business\, New York University. She received her AB in Social Psychology from Princeton University and her MA and PhD in Organizational Psychology from the University of Maryland. Prior to joining Stern in 2013\, she spent six years as an Assistant Professor at the Carlson School of Management\, University of Minnesota. \n\nLeslie’s research focuses on diversity in organizations\, and specifically understanding why organizational diversity initiatives often produce unintended consequences and what can be done to make them more effective. She also has secondary research interests in cross-cultural organizational behavior and conflict management. Leslie has received many awards for her research\, which has appeared in journals spanning a number of different disciplines\, and has served as an Associate Editor for the Academy of Management Journal.\n\nHost: \nLindred Greer\, Associate Professor of Management and Organizations\n\nSponsors:\nThe Center for Positive Organizations thanks University of Michigan Organizational Learning\, Sanger Leadership Center\, Tauber Institute for Global Operations\, Samuel Zell & Robert H.

SUMMARY:Community Service:Trans Awareness Week Donation Drive for Coats
DESCRIPTION:The weather has turned cold quickly and there are many in the transgender community left without proper winter gear. As a part of Trans Awareness Week\, the Spectrum Center is fundraising to supply some coats to the members of T-Time\, a weekly hangout for transfeminine nonbinary individuals and trans women in the Ann Arbor area. Our goal is to raise $800 in this effort to secure high-quality coats that will protect against the cold and affirm each member's unique gender presentation.\n  \n Help out by donating what you can to our general gifts fund at http://bit.ly/CoatsForTAW or spreading the word. Thank you for helping us support local trans folks!

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Subtle Social Peril: Incivility and Gender Harassment as Impediments to Diversity and Well-being at Work
DESCRIPTION:The social landscape at work can prove treacherous\, especially for employees who have to navigate experiences of incivility and gender harassment. In this talk\, I will present a collection of findings from my research program that suggest not only are deviant behaviors costly\, but they are also a way in which covert varieties of sexism and racism persist in today’s organizations. Grounded in theories of modern discrimination\, I will display data that illuminates a dark side of organizational life: low-level forms of rudeness and mistreatment that are often disregarded as trivial. I suggest that to truly equal the playing field\, organizations must root out interpersonal experiences that undermine women’s (and men’s) success and satisfaction. Further\, I will present findings on how the process of incivility harm unfolds as a function of individual differences. However\, I will also complicate this picture with my recent research that finds an unexpected potential bright-side to uncivil interactions. The goal of my work is to inform academic theory and to encourage workplace interventions that both minimize incivility and gender harassment and help those experiencing these types of stressors.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Writing a Diversity Statement
DESCRIPTION:Increasingly\, hiring committees are interested in how prospective faculty job candidates will contribute to diversity\, equity\, and inclusion. As a result\, many academic employers have begun to request a “diversity statement” as part of the faculty job application process. In this interactive session\, we will discuss best practices for writing diversity statements\, examine sample statements\, and work through activities designed to help participants start writing their own statement.\nThis workshop is designed for graduate students and postdoctoral fellows. Space is limited. For faculty and staff\, please contact RackhamEvents@umich.edu to see if we can accommodate your attendance.\nRegistration is required at https://myumi.ch/1pM43.\nWe want to ensure full and equitable participation in our events. If an accommodation would promote your full participation in this event\, please follow the registration link to indicate your accommodation requirements. Please let us know as soon as possible in order to have adequate time (one week preferred) to arrange for your requested accommodation(s) or an effective alternative.

The images challenge viewers to evaluate their assumptions about adolescents by opening a door into what young people really think and aspire to. The students’ choices reveal a youth culture that is wise and artistic\, assertive and joyful\, discerning and full of possibility.\n\nGifts of Art Gallery – Taubman Health Center South Lobby\, Floor 1. \n1500 E.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:High School Photo Project
DESCRIPTION:In her early career\, Linda Erf Swift worked as a teacher and social worker in public schools\, and later graduated from the School of the Art Institute\, Chicago. 12 years into her current work\, Swift photographs students in three high schools on Chicago’s Southside: Kenwood Academy\, King College Prep (public schools) and University High (private). She asks seniors to bring in a quotation they believe speaks to their identity\, and Swift takes their portrait with it on a blackboard behind them. The images challenge viewers to evaluate their assumptions about adolescents by opening a door into what young people really think and aspire to. The students’ choices reveal a youth culture that is wise and artistic\, assertive and joyful\, discerning and full of possibility.\n\nGifts of Art Gallery – Taubman Health Center South Lobby\, Floor 1. \n1500 E.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Fractured History: Digital Art on Canvas
DESCRIPTION:Fractured History explores concepts of identity\, love\, loss and the connection between music\, history and civil rights. Aaron Dworkin is a social entrepreneur\, author\, artist and professor of music. Classically trained in the violin\, Dworkin grew up in a diverse household\; his adoptive family is Jewish\, his biological mother is Irish Catholic\, and his biological father is African-American and a Jehovah’s Witness. His passion for inclusion and social justice inspired him to found the Sphinx Organization\, which works to help reflect the diversity in the US in orchestras. The digital and mixed media works in this exhibit combine elements of music\, diversity\, and an evolving aesthetic of the abstract that mirrors a disjunct search for unconditional love. \n\nGifts of Art Gallery – Rogel Cancer Center\, Level 1.  \n1500 E.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:High School Photo Project
DESCRIPTION:In her early career\, Linda Erf Swift worked as a teacher and social worker in public schools\, and later graduated from the School of the Art Institute\, Chicago. 12 years into her current work\, Swift photographs students in three high schools on Chicago’s Southside: Kenwood Academy\, King College Prep (public schools) and University High (private). She asks seniors to bring in a quotation they believe speaks to their identity\, and Swift takes their portrait with it on a blackboard behind them. The images challenge viewers to evaluate their assumptions about adolescents by opening a door into what young people really think and aspire to. The students’ choices reveal a youth culture that is wise and artistic\, assertive and joyful\, discerning and full of possibility.\n\nGifts of Art Gallery – Taubman Health Center South Lobby\, Floor 1. \n1500 E.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Fractured History: Digital Art on Canvas
DESCRIPTION:Fractured History explores concepts of identity\, love\, loss and the connection between music\, history and civil rights. Aaron Dworkin is a social entrepreneur\, author\, artist and professor of music. Classically trained in the violin\, Dworkin grew up in a diverse household\; his adoptive family is Jewish\, his biological mother is Irish Catholic\, and his biological father is African-American and a Jehovah’s Witness. His passion for inclusion and social justice inspired him to found the Sphinx Organization\, which works to help reflect the diversity in the US in orchestras. The digital and mixed media works in this exhibit combine elements of music\, diversity\, and an evolving aesthetic of the abstract that mirrors a disjunct search for unconditional love. \n\nGifts of Art Gallery – Rogel Cancer Center\, Level 1.  \n1500 E.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:High School Photo Project
DESCRIPTION:In her early career\, Linda Erf Swift worked as a teacher and social worker in public schools\, and later graduated from the School of the Art Institute\, Chicago. 12 years into her current work\, Swift photographs students in three high schools on Chicago’s Southside: Kenwood Academy\, King College Prep (public schools) and University High (private). She asks seniors to bring in a quotation they believe speaks to their identity\, and Swift takes their portrait with it on a blackboard behind them. The images challenge viewers to evaluate their assumptions about adolescents by opening a door into what young people really think and aspire to. The students’ choices reveal a youth culture that is wise and artistic\, assertive and joyful\, discerning and full of possibility.\n\nGifts of Art Gallery – Taubman Health Center South Lobby\, Floor 1. \n1500 E.
