Tours:Building on a Century of Collecting at the Clements Library
2023-11-08 12:00 - 16:00 (America/Detroit) | William Clements Library
As we celebrate the library’s centennial, this exhibit is an attempt to answer a question asked often by visitors, how do you decide what to acquire to add to your collections.

It builds on the landmark publication of the library’s 75th anniversary, One Hundred and One Treasures From the Collections of the William L. Clements Library, edited by former library director John Dann. This exhibit—and its expanded online version—pairs items from 101 Treasures with related items that have for the most part been acquired since 1998. Those that were acquired earlier are items about which we’ve learned new things in the intervening 25 years.

Well-being:Meditation and aligning with Chakras
2023-11-08 12:00 - 13:00 | Off Campus Location
We have all heard of Chakras(Energy Centers). What are they? Think of them in terms of anatomy. Physical anatomy is an integrated system of organs. Mental anatomy is an integrated system of thinking, intellect, ego and consciousness. The spiritual anatomy is an integrated system of the soul of which chakras are a key element.

Meditation and chakras are interconnected practices that originate from ancient Indian traditions, particularly within the realm of yoga. When meditation is combined with an understanding of chakras, it can lead to a deeper, more holistic form of self-awareness and healing.

The 16 chakras of Heartfulness (https://heartfulness.org/us/) Practice are the map to evolve your consciousness.

2020 California Neighborhoods Count: A validation of U.S. Census Population Counts and Housing Characteristic Estimates within California

In response to long-standing concerns about the accuracy of census data and about a possible undercount, we conducted the California Neighborhoods Count (CNC) study — the first-ever independent, survey-based enumeration to directly evaluate the accuracy of the U.S. Census Bureau's population totals for a subset of California census blocks. This 2020 research was intended to produce parallel estimates of the 2020 Census population and housing unit totals at the census block level, employing the same survey items as the census and using enhanced data collection strategies and exploration of imputation methods. The CNC block-level population estimates were sensitive to the imputation method used to account for non-responding households, likely in part due to limited availability of administrative data to assist the imputations. CNC identified more housing units than Census (23,929 versus 22,668), which may be due to CNC’s in-person address canvassing. Despite advancements in geospatial imaging software, as well as many other approaches used by the U.S. Census Bureau to assess coverage and validate addresses, in-field address verification might yield a more complete accounting of inhabited housing units than partially conducting address canvassing with in-office approaches.

Lane Burgette is a Senior Statistician at the RAND Corporation. Dr. Burgette’s applied research is primarily focused on health policy, especially Medicare’s physician payment policies. Other recent research projects include an evaluation of the 2020 Census in California, gun policy research, and recidivism risk estimation for employer background checks. Dr. Burgette’s methodological research focuses on causal inference, methods for missing data, and Bayesian modeling. Prior to RAND, he earned his Ph.D. in Statistics at the University of Wisconsin, and was a post-doctoral researcher in the Department of Statistical Science at Duke University.

Exhibition:Respond/Resist/Rethink
2023-11-08 12:00 - 18:00 | Duderstadt Center - Gallery, Room 1019
In conjunction with the Fall 2023 Theme Semester: Arts & Resistance and the U‑M Arts Initiative. The 2023 Respond/Resist/Rethink exhibition will include art of a variety of mediums and will be displayed in four galleries across all three U‑M campuses, including Stamps Gallery (Central Campus, Ann Arbor), Duderstadt Center Gallery (North Campus, Ann Arbor), Riverbank Arts (Flint), and Stamelos Gallery (Dearborn).

The arts play a central role in shaping cultural and political narratives. Artists, designers and creatives of diverse backgrounds have been at the forefront of social change. Creative processes have been used time and again to reveal under-told stories and to resist simple narratives. Regardless of one’s personal politics, an artwork’s potential to change hearts and minds is urgent and necessary. Respond/​Resist/​Rethink invites students to leverage their creativity to (re)imagine what they can do to create a more just and equitable community in the spaces that they inhabit.

Note: The Duderstadt Center will close slightly earlier, on Dec 1.
Duderstadt Center Gallery Hours: Noon-6pm Tues-Fri, Noon-6pm Sunday
