SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Writing a Diversity Statement
DESCRIPTION:Increasingly\, hiring committees are interested in how prospective faculty job candidates will contribute to diversity\, equity\, and inclusion (DEI). As a result\, many academic employers have begun to request a diversity statement as part of the faculty job application process. In this interactive session\, we will discuss best practices for writing diversity statements\, examine sample statements\, and work through activities designed to help participants start writing their own statement.\nLearning objectives:\n\nReflect on ways you are committed to diversity\, equity\, and inclusion in your research\, teaching\, engagement\, leadership\, or other areas.\nIdentify resources that allow you to participate and contribute to DEI initiatives\, opportunities\, projects\, and research.\nReview best practices to write a diversity statement and learn how to critically evaluate diversity statements.\n\nThis workshop is designed for University of Michigan master’s students\, doctoral students\, and postdoctoral fellows. For faculty and staff\, please contact rackhampdeworkshops@umich.edu to see if we can accommodate your attendance.\nRegistration is required at https://myumi.ch/zXGn8.\nWe want to ensure full and equitable participation in our events.

Please let us know as soon as possible in order to have adequate time\, preferably one week\, to arrange for your requested accommodations or an effective alternative.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Hear\, Here: Humanities Up Close
DESCRIPTION:With the “Hear\, Here” series\, we aim to facilitate conversations around new research in the humanities. Faculty fellows at the Institute for the Humanities will discuss a part of their current project in a short talk followed by a Q & A session.\n\nAbout this talk: In urban planning and design\, the concept of placemaking emphasizes community participation\, diversity\, and everyday residents’ role in producing place\, often through artistic interventions in public spaces. This talk examines the emergence of placemaking as a field of expertise in Detroit and nationally. It argues that placemaking resolves a key tension in the professional practice of urban planning and within Detroit’s efforts to publicly engage communities in urban development. The urge to involve the community in decision-making comes at a time when urban inequities have gained prominence in public policy. Placemaking aims to resolve this tension by symbolically elevating the local histories and affective ties of longtime residents\, while promoting market-aligned economic development. \n\nJacob Lederman is a 2024-25 Norman Freehling Visiting Fellow at the Institute for the Humanities and Associate Professor\; Sociology\, Anthropology\, and Criminal Justice at U-M Flint.
