SUMMARY:Exhibition:You Next
DESCRIPTION:The University of Michigan Duderstadt Center Gallery presents “You Next”\, a duo exhibition by Thede Ambrose and Kate Donoghue\, curated by Nathan Byrne.\n\nOpening: Friday\, May 29th 6-9pm\nClosing: Sunday\, June 28th 2-5pm\n\nArtifacts\, Illusion\, and the Speculative mediate the exchange between Thede Ambrose and Kate Donoghue’s practices.\n\nReferencing both personal and found documentary and advertisement imagery\, Donoghue investigates the vacuous and hauntingly banal underbelly of commercial aspirations\, constructing paintings that collapse expectations of consumerism into innate and corrupted desires.\n\nAmbrose navigates mediated violence\, spirituality\, and the abject\, manifesting in perverse articulations of belief and reality. Imagistic sculpture and installation are generated through an expansive material interest\, and an extensive archive of found imagery.\n\n“You Next” presents the collisions of these practices. Cautionary tales\, dreams\, and fantasies of objectification come to a head in this collaboration between the two artists.\n\nGallery Hours: Tuesday - Friday\, Noon-6pm and Sunday Noon-6 pm

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:June 2 - July 30\, 2026 T/TH  Course - Sampling in Practice
DESCRIPTION:June 2-July 30\, 2026\, T/TH\n1:00pm - 3:00pm\nA live course via Zoom. Registration and payment are required a minimum of two weeks prior to the start of the course.\n\nFounded in 1948\, the Summer Institute in Survey Research Techniques is designed specifically to meet the needs of professionals and graduate students seeking to deepen their expertise in survey methodology and data collection. Offered through the Michigan Program in Survey and Data Science within the Institute for Social Research at the University of Michigan\, the program provides a rigorous and flexible curriculum that blends theoretical foundations with practical application — entirely online.\n\nSampling in Practice\n\nUnlocking the art and science of sampling with an applied\, hands-on approach\, the course Sampling in Practice is designed for applied practitioners who want to master real-world sampling techniques through active learning and practical programming. Students will learn about probability sampling methods\, including simple random sampling\, stratification\, systematic selection\, cluster sampling\, probability proportional to size sampling\, and multistage sampling. We will also cover sampling cost models\, sampling error estimation techniques\, non-sampling errors\, missing data\, and nonprobability samples. The course emphasizes practical implementation\, featuring interactive coding exercises and in-class examples to reinforce each concept. A culminating project will give students the opportunity to integrate multiple techniques into a comprehensive sample design and demonstrate the profession in designing surveys\, selecting subjects\, analyzing sample data\, and solving real sampling problems using modern statistical tools.\n\nWhy take this course? \n\nThe course is crafted for students and practitioners eager: \n\nTo build proficiency in modern sampling techniques through active engagement and practical coding experience\nTo understand the basic ideas\, concepts and principles of probability sampling from an applied perspective\nTo be able to identify and appropriately apply sampling techniques to survey design problems\nTo understand and be able to assess the impact of the sample design on survey estimates\nTo be able to compute the sample size for a variety of sample designs\nTo learn how to design and select a probability sample involving complex sampling techniques in a survey project\, and receive expert feedback on a sampling report. \n\nYajuan Si is a Research Associate Professor in the Michigan Program in Survey and Data Science\, located within in the Institute for Social Research at the University of Michigan. She holds a Ph.D. in statistical science from Duke and received postdoctoral training at Columbia. Yajuan’s research focuses on methodology development\, from data analysis to study design\, in streams of Bayesian statistics\, linking design- and model-based approaches for survey inference\, data integration\, missing data analysis\, confidentiality protection\, and causal inference\, with applications in the social and health sciences.

SUMMARY:Tours:Sunday Drop-In Tour | How Romans Got Their Bread
DESCRIPTION:How did ancient Rome feed its massive population? This drop-in tour traces the paths of Roman food supply chains across land and sea. Museum objects tell the story of how food was produced\, moved\, stored\, and distributed—from farms in Egypt\, to the annual grain fleet\, to the so-called “grain dole” that helped supply Rome’s citizens.\n\nThis event is free and open to all visitors. If you have any questions or concerns regarding accessing this event\, please visit our accessibility page at https://myumi.ch/zwPkd or contact the education office by calling (734) 647-4167.
