SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Digging Deeper: Thursday Night Lecture Series | Synthesizing Religion\, Politics\, and the Homeric Tradition: The West Sanctuary of Ilion during the Hellenistic and Roman Periods
DESCRIPTION:Join us to hear from visiting scholar C. Brian Rose\, professor of Mediterranean archaeology and curator-in-charge of the Mediterranean Section at the Penn Museum. \n\nThe West Sanctuary at Troy (Ilion) was one of the main religious complexes at the site during the Hellenistic and Roman periods. The sanctuary is exceptional due to its rich assemblage of votive objects and integration of the cults of Cybele\, Dardanus\, and the Samothracian Gods. All of these cults are tied to Ilion’s Homeric heritage\, as well as to the Romans\, once they began promoting their Trojan ancestry. This talk provides an overview of the significance of the West Sanctuary and the strategies that we employed in its architectural conservation. The latter subject\, in turn\, is tied to the question of how an archaeologist handles or mishandles the staging of history.\n\nThis event is being presented as part of our Thursday Night Lecture Series\, happening on select months during the academic year. Please join us in the Rackham Amphitheatre (located on the fourth floor of the Rackham Building) for an evening centered on exciting archaeological research and related topics.\n\nIf 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.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Dinner for Democracy: The Electoral College
DESCRIPTION:Note: this is an in-person event on the Ann Arbor Campus.\n\nThe Electoral College is the system used in the United States to elect the president and vice president. You vote for a slate of electors and those electors choose the president. So the presidential election is actually 51 elections (50 states plus Washington D.C.). It sounds confusing\, but it doesn’t have to be.\n\nJoin Turn Up Turnout for a nonpartisan\, educational presentation on the Electoral College. FREE FOOD provided. \n\n Register here: https://sessions.studentlife.umich.edu/track/event/session/81546
