SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:ELI Academic English Workshops - Planning\, Writing\, and Refining Your Grad School Application Essays
DESCRIPTION:Are you applying to a graduate program for Fall 2027? Are you trying to figure out how to organize and narrow down all that you might write in your Statement of Purpose (SOP)? Not sure how an SOP differs from a Personal Statement? How does a Teaching Philosophy Statement or a Research Statement fit in? We will examine organizational strategies for different types of application essays. You will also learn ways to find the words to make a strong case for why you are a great match for the program(s) you are applying to. Please bring some rough ideas\, a draft outline\, or draft essays to work on during the workshop and be prepared to participate actively in small group discussions. Registration is required. Please use the provided link.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Great Michigan Gathering Watch Party
DESCRIPTION:Join the Institute for the Humanities as we tune in to The Great Michigan Gathering Watch Party\, a statewide event hosted by the Michigan Humanities Council from the Henry Ford Museum of American Innovation in Dearborn.\n\nThe watch party marks the launch of The Great Michigan Gathering\, a new three-year initiative designed to strengthen connections\, spark meaningful conversations\, and build community across Michigan. Developed after more than a year of listening to communities and stakeholders throughout the state\, the initiative responds to a clear message from Michiganders: people are looking for more opportunities to come together\, engage across differences\, and create a stronger sense of belonging.\n\nTo kick off the initiative\, bestselling author\, facilitator\, educator\, and strategic advisor Priya Parker will share insights from her acclaimed book\, *The Art of Gathering: How We Meet and Why It Matters*. Parker's work explores how intentional gatherings—from meetings and classrooms to community events and celebrations—can foster deeper relationships and more meaningful dialogue.\n\nWhether you're interested in community building\, leadership\, event planning\, or simply curious about how we can create stronger connections in our daily lives\, this watch party offers fresh ideas and practical inspiration. Join us as we watch the live event together and take part in a statewide conversation about the power of gathering with purpose.
