SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:Teach Out Series- Fake News\, Facts\, and Alternative Facts
DESCRIPTION:How can you distinguish credible information from “fake news”? Reliable information is at the heart of what makes an effective democracy\, yet many people find it harder to differentiate good journalism from propaganda. Increasingly\, inaccurate information is shared on Facebook and echoed by a growing number of explicitly partisan news outlets. This becomes more problematic because people have a tendency to accept agreeable messages over challenging claims\, even if the former are less objectively credible. In this teach-out\, we examine the processes that generate both accurate and inaccurate news stories\, and that lead people to believe those stories. We then provide a series of tools that ordinary citizens can use to tell fact from fiction.\n\nA Teach-Out is:\n\n-an event – it takes place over a fixed\, short period of time\n\n-an opportunity – it is open for free participation to everyone around the world\n\n-a community – it will be joined by a large number of diverse individuals\n\n-a conversation – an opportunity to give and take ideas and information from people\n\nThe University of Michigan Teach-Out Series provides just-in-time community learning events for participants around the world to come together in conversation with the U-M campus community\, including faculty experts. The U-M Teach-Out Series is part of our deep commitment to engage the public in exploring and understanding the problems\, events\, and phenomena most important to society.\n\nTeach-Outs are short learning experiences\, each focused on a specific current issue. Attendees will come together over a few days not only to learn about a subject or event but also to gain skills. Teach-Outs are open to the world and are designed to bring together individuals with wide-ranging perspectives in respectful and deep conversation. These events are an opportunity for diverse learners and a multitude of experts to come together to ask questions of one another and explore new solutions to the pressing concerns of our global community. Come\, join the conversation!\n\nFind new opportunities at teach-out.org.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Journey in a Day: 200 Years of Student Life at the University of Michigan
DESCRIPTION:U-M students have teamed up to create this sweeping exhibition\, surveying 200 years of daily rituals\, social life\, challenges\, victories\, and the roles U-M students have played in historic events. \"The Journey in a Day\" exhibition includes nearly 50 historic objects and dozens of photos. The exhibition includes a recreation of a Martha Cook Residence Hall room\, circa 1917\, amongst the first on campus to house women. A poster kiosk occupies the middle of one room in the Museum\, plastered with fliers and posters from across time. A reproduction of student scrapbooks brings visitors in direct contact with individuals at various times throughout history. From the morning ritual of reading the Michigan Daily\, to student reaction and involvement in U.S. wars\, from the mandates and tweets of student organizations\, to a survey of infamous late night Ann Arbor hot spots\, this is a wide ranging exhibition with many interesting\, entertaining and illuminating stories to tell.\n\nDesigned by U-M students participating in MUSEUMS 498\, in the History of Art Department\, in collaboration with the U-M Bicentennial Office\, and the Washtenaw County Historical Society.\n\nFor information on-the-go about this event and all other Bicentennial happenings\, download our mobile app: http://guidebook.com/g/umich200.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Forever Unfinished: Making and Remaking a Public University
DESCRIPTION:The University of Michigan was founded in 1817 as a public institution\, a concept for which there were few models. What makes a university public? What should it look like? Whom should it serve? Who should have access to its resources\, and where should those resources come from?\n\nThis exhibit explores how students\, faculty\, staff\, politicians\, and citizens have attempted to answer these questions. These stories invite us to imagine U-M's future as a public university based on what we know about its past.\n\nExhibit team: Jonathan Farr\, Nora Krinitsky\, Michelle McClellan\, Gregory Parker\, Emily Price\, Kate Silbert\n\nThis LSA Bicentennial Theme Semester exhibit is presented with support from the College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office. Additional support provided by the Department of History and the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies.

SUMMARY:Social / Informal Gathering:The Staring Eyes: Engaging with Art
DESCRIPTION:UMMA docents will guide visitors through the galleries on tours as diverse as their interests and areas of expertise. Each docent plans a theme and includes a variety of styles and media to illuminate his or her ideas. Themes may be repeated but each docent's approach and choice of objects is unique.\n\nThis week's theme is \"The Staring Eyes.\" Although we visit art museums to look at art\, sometimes it looks back at us.  During this tour\, we will explore some of this art and discover who or what is looking back at us and why.\n\nEngaging with Art tours are generously supported by the Berkowitz Family Endowed Fund.

SUMMARY:Social / Informal Gathering:Power Contained: The Art of Authority in Central and West Africa Guided Tour
DESCRIPTION:Before colonization\, complex hierarchical societies flourished in Central and West Africa. At their summits were a select few—kings and chiefs whose authority was derived from their direct connection to powerful ancestors and predecessors. These rulers were wrapped in expensive textiles or costly furs\, and covered in beads and precious metals\, materials that signaled status and safely contained the power they wielded. The famous minkisi (meaning “power figure”) sculptures of Central Africa were similarly activated through the addition of charged materials. UMMA docents will explore the parallels between the adornment of the king’s physical body and minkisi and demonstrates how authority was expressed and power contained across a range of historical cultures.\n\nLead support for Power Contained: The Art of Authority in Central and West Africa is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the African Studies Center.

SUMMARY:Social / Informal Gathering:In Conversation: Abstract Moments throughout History in Victors for Art: Michigan's Alumni Collectors—Part II: Abstraction
DESCRIPTION:This program is free and open to the public\, but space is limited. Please register to secure your place by emailing umma-program-registration@umich.edu. Please include date and title of program in the subject line of your email.\n\nJoin Natsu Oyobe\, Curator of Asian Art\, on a tour of Victors for Art: Michigan’s Alumni Collectors—Part II: Abstraction\, an exhibition that celebrates the rich history of over two thousand years of abstraction in art. The conversation will guide us through works created in different times and locations where the intention of abstraction emerged—from the 5th century Korean ceramic roof-tile\, the Chinese calligraphy of the Ming dynasty (1368 – 1644)\, to the 19th century African reliquary figure—illustrating that abstraction in visual art was not the invention of the modern West.\n\nLead support for Victors for Art: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, the University of Michigan Office of the President\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.
