SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:WCED Panel. Is Democracy Promotion Dead?
DESCRIPTION:Moderator: Dan Slater\, WCED Director. Panelists: Jeffrey Conroy-Krutz\, associate professor of political science\, Michigan State University\; Jennifer Raymond Dresden\, assistant teaching professor of government\, Georgetown University\; Thomas Flores\, associate professor of conflict resolution and political science\, George Mason University\; Erica Frantz\, assistant professor of political science\, Michigan State University\; Irfan Nooruddin\, Hamad bin Khalifa Professor of Indian Politics\, Georgetown University\; David Waldner\, associate professor of political science\, University of Virginia.\n\nAs of February 2020\, WCED will be the new publisher of the scholarly newsletter *Democracy and Autocracy\,* featuring articles from members of the American Political Science Association's (APSA) organized section \"Democracy and Autocracy.\" This roundtable discussion will include authors featured in WCED's inaugural issue on the topic \"Is Democracy Promotion Dead?\" Articles in this issue serve as follow-up reports to the authors' recent contributions to USAID's \"Theories of Democratic Change Research Initiative\" project (2013-2018).\n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to weisercenter@umich.edu at least 2 weeks in advance of this event. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Enhancing the Design and Performance of Highway Bridges using Ultra-High Performance Concrete
DESCRIPTION:Ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) is an advanced cement-based\, fiber-reinforced composite material that is emerging as a popular solution to many challenges related to highway bridge performance and durability. UHPC-class materials exhibit mechanical and durability properties that far exceed those of both conventional and high-performance concretes. The Structural Concrete Group at FHWA’s Turner-Fairbank Highway Research Center (TFHRC) has been conducting research on UHPC-class materials for more than 15 years\, and has played a significant role in the growing popularity of this innovative class of materials in the US bridge market. \nThe objective of this presentation is to introduce the state-of-practice for UHPC in US highway bridge market\, and discuss how this material is innovating the way we design and construct highway bridges. The presentation will include: a review of the basic properties of UHPC-class materials\; a discussion of the current deployments in the US bridge market\; and a discussion of recent research conducted at TFHRC. Research topics to be discussed will include: prefabricated bridge element connections using UHPC\; UHPC for bridge repair and rehabilitation\; and recent research focused on understanding the fundamental material properties and structural response of UHPC-class materials.  \n\nDr. Zach Haber is a research structural engineer on FHWA’s Bridge Engineering Research Team at the Turner-Fairbank Highway Research Center (TFHRC) in McLean\, Virginia\, USA. Dr. Haber’s research areas include prefabricated bridge systems and applications of innovative materials in bridge engineering.  He provides technical assistance and outreach to bridge owners\, designers\, and consultants interested in developing or deploying innovative bridge engineering solutions.

SUMMARY:Well-being:HSV Support Group
DESCRIPTION:Please note: Due to COVID-19 we will not be hosting an additional in-person meeting this year. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. If you'd like to connect with a health educator for support over email or video chat\, please email Laura at sexualhealth@umich.edu to arrange. \n\nNew this fall\, Wolverine Wellness is hosting a herpes simplex virus (HSV) support group for students (undergraduates and graduate students welcome). \n\nThis group is co-facilitated by a sexual health professional and a student. All are welcome to come discuss:\n-Relationships & sexuality\n-Self-image\n-Stigma & empowerment\n-Topics as chosen by the group\n\nIf you've been diagnosed with HSV and could use some connection and affirmation\, or if you just want to know more about how students navigate an HSV diagnosis\, you're invited to come chat with us!
