SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Steve Skerlos - J. Reid and Polly Anderson Professor of Manufacturing Celebration
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the ceremony and celebration for Steven J. Skerlos being named the J. Reid and Polly Anderson Professor of Manufacturing. Steven J. Skerlos is the Arthur F. Thurnau Professor of Mechanical Engineering and Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering. Skerlos pioneered the application of supercritical CO2 coolants for machining\, boosting production rates in manufacturing while cutting energy\, costs\, hazardous chemicals and waste.  His entrepreneurial ventures\, including three U-M spinouts\, underscore his commitment to moving research to practice. With his professorship and being the faculty director at the Center for Socially Engaged Engineering & Design\, he prepares future engineers to integrate sustainability and entrepreneurship into advanced technology.This event will feature remarks on Skerlos' career from colleagues and peers\, as well as a talk by Skerlos on \"Transforming Waste into Scalable Manufacturing Solutions.\"Transforming Waste into Scalable Manufacturing SolutionsAbstract:Manufacturing waste—spent chemistries\, harmful emissions\, and organic residues—is typically managed as an unavoidable cost. This talk reframes these streams as design inputs for high-performance manufacturing\, guided by socially engaged engineering and systems-level design.\nI describe research that began with membrane-based formulation and recycling of metalworking fluids\, then evolved through factory-floor collaboration into the discovery of a supercritical CO₂ machining process that reduces cost\, eliminates worker hazards\, and improves manufacturing performance. In real-world production\, the approach has achieved material removal rates up to five times faster than previously possible\, with threefold improvement in tool life\, and substantial reductions in environmental impact: approximately 70 percent lower global warming potential and 90 percent less water consumption. The approach has been adopted in factories across more than a dozen countries\, recognized with the EPA Green Chemistry Award and Solar Impulse Efficient Solution certification\, and continues to inform a growing body of academic research.\nParallel work on microbial systems in industrial and municipal contexts has led to the development of novel detection methods and the application of recirculating dynamic membranes to convert food waste and sewage sludge into renewable natural gas and fuels. Across these projects\, a consistent translation framework has emerged: engage end users early\, optimize for the metrics industry values\, and develop fundamental sociotechnical understanding alongside manufacturable hardware to shorten the path from laboratory to implementation.\nThis lecture marks my acceptance of the J. Reid and Polly Anderson Professorship\, with gratitude to those who have held it before me and deep appreciation for the collaborators and students whose contributions made this work possible.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Tax Workshop for Graduate & Postdoctoral Trainees
DESCRIPTION:Filing taxes can get complicated\, especially for graduate students and postdocs. Join us for a practical session that breaks down what you really need to know when filing this year.\nThis workshop goes beyond general advice\, covering the unique tax situations trainees often face. Presented by OGPS in partnership with the Michigan Law Low-Income Taxpayer Clinic.\nSnacks provided!

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Veterans Week:  Iraq/Afghanistan Panel
DESCRIPTION:Oct 7\, 2001 to Aug 30\, 2021 the US was engaged in it’s longest conflict in Afghanistan and Iraq.  Both wars changed our country forever.  For our military members the changes were both external with over 7\,000 deaths and many more wounded.   But more shocking is the invisible wounds of over 30\,000 suicides of Post 9/11 veterans.  In this panel we will hear from those who served in these conflicts.  What did they experience in the military\, why did they join the military\, what has there military to civilian transition been like and what are their hopes for the future?

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:Drop-In Sessions on Panorama and Course Accessibility
DESCRIPTION:Drop in during ITS-Accessibility office hours to learn more about course accessibility and discover how to use Panorama to improve the accessibility of your Canvas course site. Panorama is a powerful tool within Canvas that allows instructors and instructional support staff to create\, scan\, and fix digital content for accessibility directly within the platform. Additionally\, Panorama enables students to automatically generate alternative formats of Canvas content and attached files\, supporting a range of learning needs and preferences. Office hours provide a flexible opportunity for you to ask questions\, receive practical guidance\, and explore strategies for making your Canvas courses more inclusive and accessible for everyone.
