SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Rackham Public Scholarship Programs Informational and Speed Mentoring Session
DESCRIPTION:Rackham’s public scholarship programs are designed to help graduate students like you to develop the experience and knowledge necessary to lead collaborative research\, teaching\, and creative projects with community partners and organizations beyond the university through workshops\, funding\, and resources.\n\nAre you curious to learn more about any of the four core public scholarship programs Rackham offers\, including the Institute for Social Change\, the Rackham Doctoral Intern Fellowship program\, the Rackham Public Scholarship Grant program\, or the Community Engaged Course Design Workshop? Then this info & speed mentoring session is for you! \n\nIn the first part of the session\, Rackham staff will briefly introduce each of the four programs\, outlining how they can help you become a more community engaged scholar and educator. \nDuring the second part\, you will have the opportunity to ask questions and talk directly with program alumni. In two rounds of speed-mentoring conversations in small breakout rooms\, alumni of the program you are most interested in will share with you a bit more about their experience in the program and how it contributed to their career trajectory in and beyond graduate school. \n\nYou will be able to ask alumni any questions you might have regarding the programs\, their career paths\, and current work. These might include questions about the application process\, navigating conversations with your advisor\, or connecting your program experience to your scholarship and other professional development opportunities at Michigan.    \n\nThe 90-minute info & speed mentoring session will take place on Tuesday\, November 17\, from 12 to 1:30 pm via Zoom. After an initial 10-15 minutes of information sharing\, the remainder of the session is reserved for two rounds of speed-mentoring conversations depending on your interests. Students are welcome to join one or two breakouts as their schedule allows. If you are curious\, you can find out more about the invited alumni in this overview.\n\nStaff will reach out to registered participants at least two weeks prior to the event with a form for participants to sign up for up to two mentoring breakouts they would like to attend. \n\nWe hope to see you on November 17!

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Tree of Eternity
DESCRIPTION:The Tree of Eternity is an immersive\, interactive installation that explores remembrance\, loss\, and the enduring presence of those we have loved. \n\nThe installation centers on a projected tree surrounded by interactive terminal pods that control its structure.\n\nVisitors approach interactive pods positioned throughout the gallery space\, where they are invited to recall memories of people or experiences throughout their lives. Depending on the kiosk they interact with\, different effects will be present on the projected tree.\n\nAs more visitors’ memories are inputted\, the tree’s visuals adapt and change form\, demonstrating that our memories persist with us. Projection mapping creates ethereal visuals accompanied by atmospheric audio. Even when visitors aren't actively engaging with the kiosks\, the system generates ambient transmissions\, suggesting that the tree—and the memories it embodies—continues to live and grow.\n\nThe installation creates a dialogue between life and death\, presence and absence\, individual memory and collective remembrance\, inviting participants to contribute to a living memorial that persists beyond any single moment of grief or reflection.
