SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Alum Connection with Toni Newell: From Film to Law to Nonprofits — Find out how an LSA degree can take you anywhere.
DESCRIPTION:Toni Newell (‘99) is living proof that a U-M liberal arts and sciences degree will take you anywhere. She credits that it was her LSA degree that taught her how to think\, and not what to think\, a skill that has led to her success across a variety of fields. She attended Michigan to study Film and Video Studies and worked in television shortly after graduating. While thriving in the television industry\, Toni realized she could do more than the Silver Screen and made the decision to go back to law school. After graduating\, she accepted a position at Varnum LLP where she gained experience working in a variety of corporate matters\, including mergers and acquisitions\, contracting\, and banking compliance. Despite a successful career in law\, she again flipped the ‘the script’ of her professional career in early 2020 when she pivoted her direction towards the nonprofit sector by joining Catholic Charities. From film to law to nonprofits\, Toni highlights the flexibility that an LSA degree can offer\, and is now coming back to campus to share her hard-earned wisdom and life lessons with current LSA students. \n\nAbout Toni:\n\nToni currently serves as Interim Executive Director of Catholic Charities’ Diocese of Kalamazoo. Toni is a native of Michigan\, growing up in the small town of Hopkins. She graduated from the University of Michigan in December 1999\, receiving a B.A.\, with distinction\, in Film and Video Studies (now known as Film\, Television\, and Media). While at Michigan\, she participated in the Undergraduate Research Opportunities Program. Prior to attending law school\, Toni worked at WXMI-Fox 17 in Grand Rapids\, Michigan\, first as a master control operator and then as an account executive. In May 2001\, Toni moved to Washington\, DC\, to work in the legislative office of Senator Debbie Stabenow. In August 2002\, Toni began law school at Notre Dame Law School\, graduating in May 2005. She had internships both summers of law school\, working for Legal Aid of Western Michigan and the Barry County Prosecuting Attorney. Upon graduation\, Toni worked as a law clerk for the Honorable George Corsiglia in the Allegan County Circuit Court. She then worked as a staff attorney for Legal Aid of Western Michigan prior to her time at Varnum where she worked her way up to partner. Toni left Varnum in 2020 to make the transition to Catholic Charities where she currently works. \n\nYou should attend this session if you are:\n-A U-M undergraduate LSA student \n-Interested in pursuing law school\, nonprofit work\, or careers in film & television\n-Eager to learn how to pursue varying interests throughout your career\n\nWhat you’ll gain by attending:\n-Make a connection with a successful LSA alum ready to support you\n-Get ideas for how to build a career when your path is not traditional\n-Learn how to build your networking skills\n\nRSVP NOW to be part of the conversation. \n\nThe Opportunity Hub aims to deliver inclusive and accessible experiences and welcomes all LSA students to participate.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Breath of Every Living Thing: Zoocephali and the Limits of Alterity
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: This paper focuses on the woefully understudied Hammelburg Mahzor (Darmstadt\, HLH Cod. Or. 13)\, a Jewish festival book completed in Lower Franconia in the middle of the fourteenth century. The book’s most remarkable feature is perhaps the inclusion of carefully curated zoocephalic\, or theriomorphic\, figures: humans with beastly and bestial heads. By virtue of their alterity\, the zoocephali call attention to themselves with emphatic force. The purpose of this talk is to explore the semiotics and phenomenology of this alterity\, and to suggest that its presence lies at the intersection of language\, philosophy\, poetry\, and history. In the Hammelburg Mahzor this visual idiom also signals distinction\, albeit in a way that\, conspicuously\, collapses temporalities\, tests the limits of alterity\, and makes an argument about likeness and difference. By foregrounding  linguistic elisions between words\, images\, and the celebrants\, such an idiom establishes visceral connections with the community of the book’s users. Ultimately\, theriomorphs stand as a fitting metaphor for medieval Jewish art as it has been viewed in mainstream scholarship.\n\nBio: Elina Gertsman\, Professor of Medieval Art at Case Western Reserve University (where she is Archbishop Paul J. Hallinan Professor in Catholic Studies II)\, has authored an extensive series of field-changing\, prize-winning publications. Her many books include The Dance of Death in the Middle Ages: Image\, Text\, Performance (2010)\, Worlds Within: Opening the Medieval Shrine Madonna (2015)\, and most recently The Absent Image: Lacunae in Medieval Books (2021)\, winner of the 2022 Charles Rufus Morey Prize. Her work has been supported by the Guggenheim\, Kress\, Mellon\, and Franco-American Cultural Exchange Foundations as well as by the American Council for Learned Societies. In 2022 she was elected a Fellow of the Medieval Academy of America.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Artists' Roundtable: \"I have a crisis for you\": Women Artists of Ukraine Respond to War
DESCRIPTION:ZOOM WEBINAR LINK: https://umich.zoom.us/j/94676431406\n\nJoin us on Friday\, September 16th from 3:30 to 5:00pm in Weiser Hall 1010 or on Zoom for the hybrid Artists’ Roundtable discussing the Lane Hall Gallery’s fall exhibit “‘I have a crisis for you’: Women Artists of Ukraine Respond to War” featuring work by Kinder Album\, JT Blatty\, Oksana Briukhovetska (MFA\, Stamps School of Art and Design)\, Oksana Kazmina\, Sonya Hukaylo\, Svetlana Lavochkina\, Kateryna Lisovenko\, and Lyuba Yakimchuk.\n\nCurators Grace Mahoney and Jessica Zychowicz will moderate a discussion among several of the featured artists. There will be time at the end for Q&A. \n\nAbout the exhibit:\nIn February 2022\, the world witnessed the invasion of Ukraine and all-out war of aggression by the Russian Federation. Since this time\, massive casualties\, human rights violations\, and an unprecedented refugee crisis have ensued. Women artists of Ukraine have responded. They paint on found materials in refugee housing\, illustrate in bomb shelters\, photograph their shelled cities wearing press passes and bulletproof jackets. They document\, create\, and share. They post their daily journals and images on social media. They perform at the Grammy Awards. They know their message is powerful\, and the amplification of their voices is critical for victory in a very real battle for survival.\n\nCurated by Grace Mahoney (U-M Slavic Languages and Literatures) and Jessica Zychowicz\, Ph.D. (Fulbright Ukraine and U-M Alumna)\, \"'I have a crisis for you': Women Artists of Ukraine Respond to War\" showcases work created by women artists in response to Russia’s war in Ukraine. The involved artists are painters\, photographers\, filmmakers\, poets\, translators\, and textile artists. Many of the works exhibited demonstrate a continuity of engagement by the artists with the topic of war\, especially since 2014 when the people of Ukraine gathered in a “Revolution of Dignity” against attempts by the Russian Federation to control the country’s independence resulting in Russia’s annexation of the Crimean Peninsula and backing of pro-Russian separatists in Ukraine’s east. \n\nThe featured artists have also been selected because of their prominent interest and exploration of issues relating to gender in their works. The title for this exhibit comes from a poem of the same name by Lyuba Yakimchuk:\n\n“— our love’s gone missing\, I explain to a friend/ it vanished in one of the wars/ we waged in our kitchen/ — change the word ‘war’ to ‘crisis\,’ he suggests/ because a crisis is something everyone has from time to time.”\n\nLike in Yakimchuk’s poem\, many of these artists approach the war with personal perspectives. They intertwine\, juxtapose\, and disrupt experiences of war with the intimacies of personal relationships\, the workings interior lives\, and perceptions of social roles. The featured artworks and documents engage a range of subjects from women volunteering as combatants to the processes of grieving and reflect ongoing discourses in Ukrainian feminist scholarship. \n\nThe exhibit will be accompanied by a companion website which includes an expanded set of informational and aid-related resources. \n\n\"'I have a crisis for you': Women Artists of Ukraine Respond to War\" is hosted by the University of Michigan’s Institute for Research on Women and Gender (IRWG) and the Department of Women’s and Gender Studies with co-sponsorship from the Center for Russian\, East European and Eurasian Studies\, the Department of Slavic Languages and Literatures\, the Museum Studies Program\, the Weiser Center for Europe and Eurasia\, and the Weiser Center for Emerging Democracies.\n\nThe exhibit runs from August 25—December 16\, 2022 in the Lane Hall Exhibit Space (204 South State Street).\n\nRelated Events:\nOpening Reception with comments by the curators\n4:00-6:00 pm ET\, Thursday\, September 15th\, 2022\nLane Hall
