SUMMARY:Well-being:ECE Tea Table
DESCRIPTION:Are you burnt out from studying for finals? Do you need to take a break to stretch your legs? Stop by the graduate student lounge (3414 EECS) or the UG student lounge (3313 EECS)\, to get some tea and a snack!\n\nTea varieties offer several different benefits:\n\nChamomile tea\nHelps to reduce menstrual pain and muscle spasms\, improves sleep and relaxation\, and reduces stress\n\nGreen tea\nHelps boost your heart health by lowering bad cholesterol and reducing blood clotting. Studies show this type of tea can also help lower blood pressure\, triglycerides and total cholesterol.\n\nBlack tea\nHelps combat inflammation and support healthy immune function. It can also be steamed\, cooled and then pressed on minor cuts\, scrapes and bruises to relieve pain and reduce swelling. A black tea bath can also ease inflammation caused by skin rashes and conditions such as poison ivy.\n\nECE students are encouraged to drop by and help themselves! This time of year can be very challenging and tiring\, so be sure to take a few minutes for yourself. Good luck with finals!

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Arabic Placement test_December 5\, 2024 (9:00am-11:30am)
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to the Arabic Placement TestAbout the testThe test is approximately two hours and a half in length\, and it is composed of three portions:a. The writing portion is completed on paper and it is worth a total of 100 points.b. The reading portion is completed on Canvas site\, and it is worth a total of 48 points.c. Right after finishing with the reading portion\, each student will have a follow-up interview with a proctor. The interviews last approximately 15 minutes and it is worth a total of 20 points.Important: a. The interview portion will be weighted most heavily as it will be used to validate performance on the other portions. The final result/score/rating will thus be based on the student’s performance on the interview above all. Rating of performance on the writing or reading portions is secondary. b. Students who receive 60% or above will be placed in Arabic 401 and thus placed out of the language requirement.c. Students who are not able to write in Modern Standard Arabic (MSA) do not need to take the placement test and they will be advised to enroll in Arabic 101.\nWhere can I view my results?Placement results are posted within 7 business days after the test.You will not be notified of your score automatically. You may view your placements via: Wolverine Access > Student Business > Academic Records > View Placement Exam Results.Important information about the test* Placements are valid for only one year. If you fail to register in the course that you are placed in\, you will be required to retake the test.* Retaking the placement test is only permitted after the placement results expire.* The test assesses students’ proficiency in Modern Standard Arabic (MSA)\, NOT colloquial Arabic.  * If you speak an Arabic dialect but you do not know how to read or write or have little knowledge\, feel free to register in Arabic 101.* Students who know some Arabic because they came from an Arabic-speaking household or have studied Arabic before\, must take the Arabic proficiency test in order to determine their placement.* Students who have taken Arabic at other institutions and wish to continue their Arabic study at UM must take the placement test to determine their level. Credits for Arabic study undertaken at another institution prior to joining UM or in a summer program while attending UM\, transfer in as generic departmental credits and students must take the placement test to determine credit equivalencies to UM courses.* If you place in or beyond the 401 level\, you will have satisfied the LSA language requirement. * Students are encouraged to take a placement test as early as possible in their studies in order to determine the level they should enroll in\, or if they test out of the language requirement. This is extremely important to avoid delays in graduation and complications with placement.* Arabic 101\, 201\, 401\, 501 are offered ONLY in the Fall semester\, and Arabic 102\, 202\, 402\, 504 are ONLY offered in the Winter semester.* Students can take intensive Arabic 103 (the equivalent of Arabic 101 &102\, combined)\, and Arabic 203 (the equivalent of Arabic 201 & 202\, combined) in the Spring/Summer terms.If you have questions regarding the placement test\, please contact the program director at\, mesarabicprogram@umich.edu.
