SUMMARY:Performance:Alden J. “Butch” Carpenter Scholarship Gala (BLSA)
DESCRIPTION:The Black Law Students Association (BLSA) at the University of Michigan Law School cordially invites you to join them at the 2026 Butch Carpenter Memorial Scholarship Gala.\n\nWe hold this annual event in memory of Alden J. “Butch” Carpenter\, a former University of Michigan Law School student. In 1977\, Carpenter entered law school to advocate for disinvested communities through his business and lawyering skills. Sadly\, Carpenter passed away during the winter semester of his first year of law school and did not get the chance to realize his dreams. On February 21st\, 1978\, only a few weeks after Carpenter’s untimely passing\, the BLSA membership voted unanimously to honor his memory by establishing the Alden J. “Butch” Carpenter Memorial Scholarship Fund. Paying homage to Carpenter’s lifework\, each year the fund awards scholarships to outstanding first-year BLSA members who are interested in business law and have demonstrated a commitment to community development.

SUMMARY:Performance:Student Choreography Showcase
DESCRIPTION:The Dance Student Assembly (DSA) at the University of Michigan Department of Dance presents the Winter 2026 Student Choreography Showcase. This free performance features new choreographic works created by student artists across disciplines.\n\nThe Student Choreography Showcase is a student-led and student-produced performance platform designed to provide emerging choreographers opportunities to develop and present original dance work in front of an audience each term.\n\nBurke Brickner (junior musical theatre major) presents a work grounded in theatrical sensibility and compositional craft\, drawing from his training in performance-driven storytelling.\n\nCharlotte Blanc (senior philosophy & mathematics major) explores the emotional tensions within romantic relationships through contemporary and lyrical movement.\n\nAngelica White (junior dance major\, PAME minor) investigates personal passion and artistic expansion\, using movement as a vehicle to stretch expressive and performative range.\n\nGrace Su (PhD candidate in chemical biology) draws inspiration from Chiharu Shiota’s *Silent Emptiness* and the Chinese myth of the red thread of fate. Her solo examines entanglement\, connection\, and embodied relationship through a synthesis of contemporary and classical Chinese dance influences.\n\nAmanda Chizuk (junior dance & education major) presents a solo exploring grief in its varied emotional forms – anger\, depression\, bargaining\, and acceptance – through contemporary movement language.\n\nDrew Brown (senior communication major\, dance minor) examines internal tension and personal resilience in a contemporary work reflecting on the challenges of navigating complex social and political climates.\n\nSofia D’Agostino (sophomore chemical engineering major) presents a contemporary piece centered on the metaphor of mirages in friendship\, tracing the evolution of perception\, disillusionment\, and growth.\n\nMaura Puro (senior biomedical engineering major\, dance minor) offers an intimate\, bedroom-inspired contemporary solo that captures emotional processing and vulnerability within a casual\, personal atmosphere.\n\nKennedy Marshall (junior dance major) presents a dance film originally developed in composition class. The work explores the early conceptual themes of her thesis research around  Black joy and community.\n\nAlyssa Hernandez (senior dance major\, PAME minor) shows a contemporary piece that explores the collaborative relationship between the dancer and saxophonist Lauren Troutman.\n\nAlex Hackbardt (junior elementary education major\, dance minor) presents a solo choreographed for a composition course and set to the song “Cast the Bronze\" by Raynes.\n
