SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Thursday Seminar Series - Understanding adaptation to anthropogenic disturbance at a global scale
DESCRIPTION:Seminar Summary - Anthropogenic disturbance is a dominant force driving evolutionary change on Earth today. From global land use change\, to resource extraction and consumption\, to rapid and ongoing climate change\, humans are fundamentally changing our planet. While the geochemical\, ecosystem and ecological consequences of anthropogenic caused environmental change are well studied and increasingly understood\, the impacts on evolution are less understood. In this talk I will address this problem by seeking to answer a single general question: How does anthropogenic disturbance influence the evolution of life? As a case example\, I will describe our work on the the cosmopolitan plant white clover\, where we are examining how various anthropogenic disturbances affect all major mechanisms of evolution. I will describe our global studies examining whether urbanization affects phenotypic and genomic evolution. I will then explore whether invasive populations can adapt to novel environments in their invaded range\, including the role of functional traits and structural variants across the genome in these adaptations. Finally\, I will explore whether populations can adapt to rapid climate change through time in introduced and native ranges. The results from the white clover system provide insight into when species are likely to be able to adapt to anthropogenic disturbance\, and when they may be unable to adapt. When combined with studies of other systems\, it is becoming clear that anthropogenic disturbance is becoming one of the most important drivers of evolution.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:FYRST Workshops 2026 - 2027
DESCRIPTION:If you are only seeing one workshop\, please SIGN-IN and refresh the Sessions page! If still having issues\, click this link. \nFirst-Year Relationship and Sexuality Talk (FYRST) is a required\, in-person\, and peer-facilitated workshop that came directly from feedback and listening sessions with current University of Michigan students. Our goal is to create an accessible\, supportive space for student-driven conversations where all identities and experiences are welcomed and in which students can build skills and tools around identifying goals and values and then communicate effectively about those. Workshops will be offered at multiple locations and times throughout the fall semester\, so please sign up for the workshop that works for you!! First-Year Relationship Sexuality Talk (FYRST) FAQ:\n“How many workshops do I have to sign up for?”\nYou only need to sign up for 1 workshop. Attending 1 workshop will fulfill the requirement for the training. \n“I see that there is more than one session\, does it matter which one I sign up for?”\nIt generally does not matter which workshop you sign up for. There will be a few that are designated for specific groups such as transfer students or for students looking for accommodations. If you do not fit these groups please try to save these workshops for those that do and you are free to choose among any of the other workshops. \n“Is this workshop required?”\nThis workshop is required for all transfer and first-year students at the University of Michigan.\n“I’ve experienced harm around relationships or sexual experiences in the past and I am worried that attending this workshop may be harmful for me.” \nOur team is aware that students who are coming into the university that have experienced harm in the past. Our workshop is specifically designed to respect and validate the experiences of survivors and has been carefully constructed to avoid any specific descriptions of violence and focus instead on themes of empowerment\, communication\, and boundary setting. However\, if you still have concerns about programming and would like to request alternative programming\, please feel free to reach out at SAPAC-FYRST@umich.edu.\n“What if I struggle to learn in a presentation setting? I’m an active learner.”\nOur workshop is built to meet a variety of learning styles\, including time for self-reflection\, small group sharing\, and resources to take with you to work through on your own time! This workshop is meant to be interactive and inclusive. \n“Can I request accommodations?”\nWe considered accessibility in creating this workshop and selecting the locations in which the workshops are help. However\, we recognize many places at the University are inaccessible and we've set an * next to workshops that are on the first floor and lack stairs. These workshops also will have a presentation (other workshops we do not) and are a good fit for those who might need a large font. Please sign up for those if you feel that accommodations would assist you and reach out to SAPAC-FYRST@umich.edu if you are concerned or have questions. \n“I missed my workshop\, what should I do ?”\nOur team tracks attendance at each workshop by having participants swipe in with their MCard. If you are not able to attend the workshop you signed up for\, our team will continue to send reminder emails until you have completed a workshop. In this case\, please sign up for another workshop as soon as you can as the workshop is required and may fill up especially near the end of the semester. No need to contact SAPAC unless you are not able to reschedule. \n“I have had gender-based violence training before\, can I get this requirement waived?”\nAs this workshop was designed with University of Michigan student feedback in mind\, our workshop is unique to the UM community. Our curriculum focuses on individualized reflection and because of its interactive nature\, each workshop will be unique to the people attending. Although we are excited you already have familiarity with the subject\, this workshop is required for every first year and transfer student. \n“I’m a commuter/non-traditional student\, do I still have to attend?\"\nYes\, this workshop is required for every first-year and transfer student - not only do we want every student to benefit from having this time to connect with peers\, but we also want to make sure your peers benefit from what you bring to our community. If you have any concerns or questions about being able to participate\, please contact SAPAC-FYRST@umich.edu.\n“I still have questions! Who should I contact?\"\nPlease contact us at SAPAC-FYRST@umich.edu.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Safer: Turning Fear into Action and Crisis into Community
DESCRIPTION:Join Dr. Raj Panjabi\, author of Safer\, for a fireside chat with University of Michigan School of Public Health Dean Charles B. Holmes about how individuals and communities can prepare for—and lead through—times of crisis. Drawing on his experiences as a physician\, global health leader\, White House adviser\, and refugee\, Panjabi will share practical lessons for navigating fear\, assessing risk\, countering misinformation\, and building trust. The conversation will explore why connection\, rather than isolation\, is among our strongest forms of protection—and how public health students can help build more resilient communities. Attendees will leave with a hopeful\, actionable framework for turning uncertainty into collective action - plus\, the first 75 attendees will receive a copy of Safer. This event is presented with the Center for Global Health Equity.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Kozma Lecture | The Materiality of Blue: Technical Knowledge\, Innovation\, and Adaptation in the Ancient Mediterranean
DESCRIPTION:Natural blue pigments in the ancient world were uncommon\, usually sourced from far away\, and difficult to process. Reviewing *shady* characters\, like lazurite and azurite\, will shed light on ancient artisanal capabilities\, technical knowledge\, and even trade connections that reveal the extent to which ancient people traveled and experimented in order to obtain blue. The development in the late 4th millennium BCE of a synthetic blue pigment\, Egyptian blue\, made it possible not only to paint in blue but also to use this material in ways other than as a pigment. A combined approach allows us to better tease out the variables and complexities in the *chaine operatoire* (procedural steps) behind the creation and application of these pigments\, using experimental archaeology paired with ancient texts and artifact analysis. Tracing how artisans and everyday people in antiquity worked with blues provides an opportunity to explore the material constraints and practical choices of adding color.\n\nHilary Becker (AB Bryn Mawr College\, PhD UNC-Chapel Hill) is an associate professor at Binghamton University (SUNY). She regularly researches pigments and artisanal practice\, Pliny the Elder\, and Etruscan archaeology.\n\nJoin us in Room 125 of the Kelsey Museum’s Newberry Hall for a reception and light refreshments at 4:30 PM\; the talk will begin at 5:00 PM. Sponsored by the Kozma Lecture Fund\, “The Materiality of Blue” is held in connection with our upcoming special exhibition\, *Ancient Abstractions: Roman Visual Trends Beyond Naturalism*\, curated by Nicola Barham. \n\nThis event is free and open to all visitors. If 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:Workshop / Seminar:Political Ecology Workshop
DESCRIPTION:The Political Ecology Workshop (PEW) is an interdisciplinary space for scholars at all career stages with interests in political ecology and related critical approaches to the study of environment-society interactions. PEW brings together a range of divisions across campus\, including Anthropology\, History\, Environment and Sustainability\, Political Science\, Sociology\, and all Area Studies departments and programs. We have founded a collaborative\, multidisciplinary community with a shared investment questioning how environments and societies are co-produced and the ways in which power and inequality impact the dynamics and understandings of this co-production. We have run PEW as an RIW for two years and all the workshops have been possible from our committed participants from diverse fields. This year\, we intend to develop our membership further by inviting scholars from broader fields and promoting PEW on listservs across campus.\nPEW supports graduate student development\, including for earlier-stage students seeking interdisciplinary conversations as they develop environment-society research projects and later-stage students seeking to incorporate political ecology into their work. PEW emphasizes dedicated time for graduate students to receive feedback on their work and facilitates faculty-student mentorship. It allows students to access a range of critical environmental studies perspectives they might not have encountered through coursework or departmental activities\, and to grow from the feedback and insight of faculty and peers who share this commitment to interdisciplinary scholarship and professional development.\n

SUMMARY:Presentation:Peer Writing Program Info Session
DESCRIPTION:Information session for students interested in applying to the Peer Writing Program.\n\nThe Sweetland Peer Writing Program provides undergraduate students from across the University with an opportunity to assist fellow U-M undergrads with their writing. Sweetland-trained peer writing consultants offer consulting at our Peer Writing Center.\n\nThe Peer Writing Program is an excellent way for undergraduate students from across the University to get involved in consulting with their peers about written communication. Becoming a writing consultant gives you the opportunity to work with others on their writing\, enjoying conversations about interesting topics\, helping to solve writing challenges\, and supporting effective writing processes. Once writing consultants enter the job market or go to graduate school\, many of them find that the program has given them important experience relating to people\, working collaboratively\, and engaging in rigorous thinking.\n\nApplications are accepted once a year in the Fall term. Accepted students enroll in Writing 300: Seminar in Peer Writing Consultation the following Winter which trains them to become theoretically informed and well-practiced Peer Writing Consultants. Students who excel in Writing 300 are invited to join the Peer Writing Program as paid consultants and enroll in WRITING 301: Practicum in Peer Writing Consultation. After completing 301\, students may be asked to continue on as consultants.\n\nPlease note: In order to apply\, students must have completed or be currently enrolled in a first-year college writing course. Students may also apply if they obtained first-year college writing exemption for credits already earned when they enrolled at U-M.
