SUMMARY:Tours:Walking Tour: The Origins of the Law Quadrangle
DESCRIPTION:Many associate the architecture of the University of Michigan Law Quadrangle with the Renaissance\, the Ivy League\, or even Hogwarts. While strolling through the Quad\, we’ll discuss the buildings from conception to construction and the Law School’s influence on social issues and legal education.\n\nGuided tour led by student docents. Duration: 1.5 hours\; 0.5 miles.\n\nThis walking tour meets at the corner of S. University Avenue and State Street\, on the outer northwest corner of the Law Quad.\n\nTour will take place in rain or snow\, but will be cancelled for severe weather (notification via email).\n\nRegistration required.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Regulatory\, Property\, and Human Rights-Based Strategies for Protecting American Waterways
DESCRIPTION:Erin Ryan\, Associate Dean for Environmental Programs and Elizabeth C. & Clyde W. Atkinson Professor\, Florida State University College of Law\n\nThis analysis introduces a framework of three different strategies for protecting American waterways—the conventional regulatory approach\, an alternative property-based approach\, and a newer human rights-based approach—and reviews how the dynamic among them will be impacted by recent Supreme Court decisions impacting environmental law.  The rights of nature movement has emerged as a human rights-based approach to environmental protection\, the public trust doctrine offers a public property-based approach\, and the Clean Water Act epitomizes the more traditional regulatory approach. \n\nIn recent years\, however\, the Court issued a series of decisions that have unwound nearly a half-century of accepted regulatory practice\, limiting the reach of the Clean Water Act as a tool for protecting waterways in Sackett v. EPA\, weakening the reach of the Clean Air Act in West Virginia v. EPA\, and weakening environmental agencies more generally in Loper Bright Enterprises v. Raimondo. These cases will exact a cost for wise environmental governance under all three models reviewed here.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Institute for Energy Solutions & Electric Vehicle Center: Understanding and Development of Sulfide-Based Solid-State Batteries
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: There is a growing interest in low-cost and scalable manufacturing and recycling methods for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). In this talk\, I will discuss on our recent progress in innovating materials and processing technologies for more sustainable LIBs. I will first discuss our recent work on the next generation direct recycling methods\, aiming to produce new electrode materials capable of matching the performance of native materials. By leveraging advanced characterizations\, we study the microstructure and compositional evolution of battery materials during cycling\, which are compared with the recycled materials. We demonstrate successful recycling of various battery materials to high performance active materials. Scaling up challenges will also be discussed.\n\nBio: Dr. Zheng Chen is a Professor in the Aiiso Yufeng Li Department of Chemical and Nano Engineering\, and Program of Materials Science and Engineering at UC San Diego.  His research group has been mainly focusing on 1) design and synthesis of nanostructured and polymeric materials for energy storage and conversion\, and 2) development of scalable materials manufacturing recycling methods. Dr. Chen has received the 2024 ECS Toyota Young Investigator Fellowship\, 2023 ECS Battery Division Early Career Award\, NASA’s 2018 Early Career Faculty Award\, the LG Chem Global Battery Innovation Contest (BIC) Award in 2018\, and the 2018 ACF PRF New Investigator Award. He has been selected as a Scialog Fellow in Advanced Energy Storage by Research Corporation and as a participant of 2022 Germany-US and 2019 China- America Frontiers of Engineering Symposium (CAFOE)\, National Academy of Engineering.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Institute for Energy Solutions 2026 Energy Symposium
DESCRIPTION:The U-M Institute for Energy Solutions hosted its inaugural energy symposium in 2025 themed “What (Energy Issue) Is Keeping You Up at Night?”. The Symposium included faculty\, staff\, and students from across the University and external partners from academia\, industry\, government\, and nonprofits. Our goal was to identify critical energy challenges and discuss innovative energy solutions.\n\nThis year\, on May 27-28\, 2026\, IES is hosting its second energy symposium\, themed “What are your Energy Dreams?”. We want to know what energy challenges and solutions excite (“energize”) you today. Join us to discuss opportunities in electricity grid technology and computation\, biotechnology for energy feedstocks\, critical minerals\, geothermal systems\, data centers\, behavioral challenges in energy\, and more. IES will be welcoming Dr. Benjamin Kroposki\, the Director of the Power Systems Engineering Center at the National Laboratory of the Rockies (NLR)\, to give a plenary at the symposium.\n\nThe event will take place at the Gerald R. Ford Presidential Library (1000 Beal Ave\, Ann Arbor\, MI 48109) on U-M’s North Campus. Further details will be announced soon. Save the date!
