SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Digging Deeper Lecture Series | Unraveling the Fabric of the Past: Textile Production and Consumption in Pre-Roman Italy
DESCRIPTION:Textiles represent one of the earliest human craft technologies and have been a fundamental part of subsistence\, economy\, and exchange for millennia. Knowledge of textile history is thus key to our understanding of a multitude of human issues. Textiles can tell us about social\, chronological\, and cultural aspects of past societies and at the same time give us a unique opportunity to come very close to the individual people in their capacity as both users and makers of textiles. \n\nIconographic sources indicate that textiles were used for a variety of purposes by the Etruscans and other peoples of ancient Italy\, but until recently\, little was known about what these textiles were like and how they were produced. The latest and ongoing studies of the surviving fabric remains found primarily in burial contexts and textile tools from settlements are\, for the first time\, permitting not only qualitative but also quantitative assessment of textile production and consumption in pre-Roman Italy and more broadly across Europe. \n\nMargarita Gleba is an associate professor at the University of Padua. She specializes in the prehistory and protohistory of the Mediterranean region\, the archaeology of textiles and other organic materials\, and the use of scientific methods in archaeology.\n\nThis free\, public event is supported by the Kozma Lecture Fund. Join us in the Rackham Amphitheatre\, located on the fourth floor of the Rackham Building (915 E. Washington Street\, Ann Arbor\, MI 48109). \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. We ask for advance notice as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Labor\, Machines\, and Economic Growth: Will Workers Be  Needed in our AI Future
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\nAI adoption is already changing how people work\, with a growing number of companies adopting AI systems to handle an increasing number of tasks. How will human work evolve as AI adoption progresses and what will that mean for how people earn a living? How will it reshape how people find meaning and purpose in life? Will the winner-take-most economy of the past several decades continue\, further increasing inequality\, or will AI be the great equalizer? While many things remain unknown\, economist Betsey Stevenson will take us through what we can learn from the past\, what we are already seeing today\, and what might be the best way forward for both income and human flourishing. \n\nBiography\nBetsey Stevenson is a professor of public policy and economics at the University of Michigan. She is also a faculty research associate at the National Bureau of Economic Research\, a visiting associate professor of economics at the University of Sydney\, a research fellow of the Centre for Economic Policy Research\, a fellow of the Ifo Institute for Economic Research in Munich\, and serves on the executive committee of the American Economic Association. She served as a member of the Council of Economic Advisers from 2013 to 2015 where she advised President Obama on social policy\, labor market\, and trade issues. She served as the chief economist of the U.S. Department of Labor from 2010 to 2011\, advising the Secretary of Labor on labor policy and participating as the secretary’s deputy to the White House economic team. She has held previous positions at Princeton University and at the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School.\n\nDr. Stevenson is a labor economist who has published widely in leading economics journals about the labor market and the impact of public policies on outcomes both in the labor market and for families as they adjust to changing labor market opportunities. Her research explores women’s labor market experiences\, the economic forces shaping the modern family\, and how these labor market experiences and economic forces on the family influence each other. She is a columnist for Bloomberg View\, and her analysis of economic data and the economy are frequently covered in both print and television media.\n\nDr. Stevenson earned a BA in economics and mathematics from Wellesley College and an MA and PhD in economics from Harvard University.\n\nParking/Accessibility Information\nThe closest public parking lot to East Hall is the Forest Avenue Parking Garage (650 S Forest Ave\, Ann Arbor\, MI 48104)\, which is a 5 minute (2 block/0.2 mile) walk to the venue.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The 1817 Project: U-M’s Origins\, Indigenous Lands\, and Institutional (In)Action
DESCRIPTION:Signed on September\, 1817\, the Treaty of Fort Meigs ceded 4.6 million acres of Indigenous land to the United States\, setting aside 1\,920 acres for “the corporation of the college at Detroit”–the fledgling University of Michigan. This was just the beginning of U-M’s complex history with Michigan’s Native American communities. The 1817 Project research team will present four snapshots of their research into this history\, spanning over 200 years\, from a re-examination of U-M’s origins to a 1971 lawsuit claiming U-M had broken the treaty and a study of broader patterns of Native American student enrollment.\n\nOne of the foundational Project Sites of the Inclusive History Project\, the 1817 Project team includes Jay Cook (Professor of History and Director of Research for the UM-Ann Arbor Inclusive History Project)\;  Michael Witgen (citizen of the Red Cliff Band of Lake Superior Ojibwe\, Professor in the Department of History and the Center for the Study of Ethnicity and Race at Columbia University)\; as well as postdoctoral and graduate students Jonathan Quint\, Gabrielle Hickmon\, Veronica Williamson\, and Cheyenne Travioli  (citizen of the Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe)\, all part of a larger team working on the project.
