SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Lecture. Religious diversity\, pluralism and laïcité in contemporary France
DESCRIPTION:Céline Béraud is a sociologist and professor at the École des hautes études en sciences sociales (EHESS\, Paris)\, where she holds the chair in Gender and Religion. She is an alumna of the École Normale Supérieure (Paris-Saclay)\, where she studied economics and sociology. After obtaining her PhD in the sociology of religion under the supervision of Danièle Hervieu-Léger at EHESS\, she worked as a lecturer at the University of Caen (2007-2016). In 2016\, she obtained her habilitation degree at Sciences Po and joined EHESS. Her main current research topics are gender and sexual issues within Catholicism\, as well as religion in public institutions such as prisons and hospitals. She was recently appointed to chair the research commission investigating sexual violence committed by Abbé Pierre\, a well-known French priest and social activist. Béraud has published *Une religion parmi d’autres. Le catholicisme en prison et à l’hôpital* (PUF\, 2025)\, *Les géométries variables de l’aumônerie musulmane (prison\, hôpital\, armée)* (PUAM\, 2024\, with Claire de Galembert\, Benjamin Farhat\, and Anne Fornerod)\, *Le catholicisme français à l’épreuve des scandales sexuels* (Seuil\, 2021)\, and *La bataille du genre. Du mariage pour tous à la PMA *(Fayard\, 2021).\n\nAccommodation: If there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at gosiak@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:RTG Seminar on Geometry\, Dynamics and Topology:  Selberg\, Ihara and Berkovich
DESCRIPTION:We use the Selberg zeta function to study the limit behavior of resonances of a degenerating family of Kleinian Schottky groups. We prove that\, after a suitable rescaling\, the Selberg zeta functions converge to the Ihara zeta function of a limiting finite graph associated with the relevant non-Archimedean Schottky group acting on the Berkovich projective line. Moreover\, our techniques can be used to obtain effective statements. One key idea is to introduce an intermediate zeta function that captures Archimedean and non-Archimedean information (while the Selberg resp. Ihara zeta function concerns only Archimedean resp. non-Archimedean properties). This is a joint work with Jialun Li\, Carlos Matheus\, and Zhongkai Tao.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Smart from the Start: Closing Early Opportunity Gaps with Strategic Early Learning Investments
DESCRIPTION:The Ford School's Karl and Martha Kohn Professor of Social Policy\, Christina Weiland\, will deliver her Kohn lecture reflecting on her work on early childhood interventions and public policies on children’s development\, especially on children from families with low incomes.\n\nThe professorship is a part of the larger Kohn Collaborative for Social Policy \, which advances research and policy solutions\, and works with policymakers and stakeholders to promote a more inclusive\, just society for all. The collaborative consists of four pillars: Kohn Professors\, Kohn Scholars\, policy impact and the Kohn Prize.\n\nThe Karl and Martha Kohn Professorship of Social Policy is intended to promote social equity through U.S. education policy\, with a focus on childhood development.\n\nSpeaker Bio:\n\nChristina Weiland is the Karl and Martha Kohn Professor of Social Policy at the Ford School of Public Policy and Professor at the Marsal Family School of Education at the University of Michigan. She co-directs the Education Policy Initiative (with Dr. Kevin Stange) and directs the University of Michigan’s Predoctoral Training Program in Causal Inference in Education Policy Research.  She is also a Senior Research Fellow at the Learning Policy Institute and a Non-Resident Fellow at the Urban Institute.\n\nDr. Weiland’s research focuses on the effects of early childhood interventions and public policies on children’s development\, especially on children from families with low incomes. She is particularly interested in the active ingredients that drive children’s gains in successful\, at-scale public preschool programs. She is also interested in quantitative research methods\, educational measurement\, and developmental processes research. Her work is also characterized by strong\, long-standing research collaborations with practitioners\, particularly the Boston Public Schools Department of Early Childhood.
