SUMMARY:Community Service:2025 Blood Battle: On-Campus Blood Drive
DESCRIPTION:Help U-M Beat Ohio State in the Blood Battle!\n\nJoin us to donate blood and support the 2025 Blood Battle against Ohio State University. The competition runs until November 26\, and every donation counts—U-M is trailing behind\, so your contribution could help us outscore OSU!\n\nWhy donate? College campuses play an important role in building a stronger\, more diverse\, and resilient blood supply—especially through the participation of younger and varied donors. Your donation not only supports patients in need but also adds to U-M’s total in Abbott’s “We Give Blood” Big Ten competition. Family and friends can participate at any blood drive nationwide and report their donations toward our university’s total until December 6. The winning school receives $1 million to support student and community health initiatives.\n\nAll competition aside\, your blood donation directly saves lives and addresses ongoing need. Have questions or want to volunteer at an on-campus Blood Drives United event? Email blooddrivesunited@umich.edu.\n\nLet’s roll up our sleeves\, save lives\, and Go Blue!

SUMMARY:Performance:Adam Lenhart & Sarah Penrose\, carillon
DESCRIPTION:Adam Lenhart & Sarah Penrose perform on the Charles Baird Carillon\, an instrument of 53 bronze bells located inside the Burton Memorial Tower. The largest bell\, which strikes the hour\, weighs 12 tons\, while the smallest bell\, 4½ octaves above\, weighs just 15 pounds.\n\nThirty-minute recitals are performed on the Charles Baird Carillon at noon every weekday that classes are in session\, followed by visitor Q&A with the carillonist. The bell chamber may be accessed via a combination of elevator and stairs. Take the elevator to the highest floor possible (floor 8)\, and then climb two flights of stairs (39 steps) to the bell chamber (floor 10). Hearing protection earmuffs are provided for visitors. Be prepared to walk on ice and snow in the bell chamber during winter. Built in 1936\, the Charles Baird Carillon is not ADA accessible. Visitors with mobility concerns are invited to visit the Lurie Carillon.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Curiosity as Vice? A Virtuous Approach to Learning in Medicine
DESCRIPTION:Medical training shapes what we know\, but also who we become. Yet too often\, students approach learning with fear\, self-protection and the need to appear certain. Dr. Benjamin Frush invites us to imagine another way — one that views the unknown as opportunity\, knowledge as something to share and humility as a source of strength. Drawing on theologian Paul Griffiths’ distinction between the vice of curiositas and the virtue of studiositas\, Dr. Frush explores how a healthier moral posture toward learning can transform both medical education and patient care. \n\nDr. Benjamin Frush\, MD\, MA\, is a palliative care physician and the McDonald Agape Fellow in Bioethics at the Kennedy Institute of Ethics at Georgetown University. He is a former fellow at the Theology\, Medicine\, and Culture Fellowship at Duke Divinity School\; a current bioethics scholar at the Paul Ramsey Institute\; and a former fellow at the Fellowship at Auschwitz for the Study of Professional Ethics (FASPE). His work in AMA Journal of Ethics\, Perspectives in Biology and Medicine and Theoretical Medicine and Bioethics focuses on virtue\, moral formation and end-of-life care. We first heard him speak at the Conference on Medicine and Religion and knew right away we had to bring him as a speaker. You won’t want to miss this conversation.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Tuesday Seminar Series - Trait complexity in squamate reptiles and its effects on evolutionary analyses
DESCRIPTION:Description: Functional and phenotypic traits are used as tools for studying evolutionary diversification and ecological interactions. However\, many features that constitute these traits are complex\, multidimensional and challenging to quantify. In this presentation\, I investigate how representations of the same biological trait can influence downstream assessments of evolutionary outcomes. I use snake diets as a case study\, with diet acting as a case example of an ecological trait that can be represented under different biological criteria. I will apply a similar approach to a color pattern dataset of Australian lizards (Ctenotus) in the remainder of my dissertation and will use multiple scoring and modeling approaches to test how color pattern has evolved within in this genus. Finally\, I will leverage phylogenomic and microhabitat data to explore the distribution of color patterns in populations undergoing different stages of speciation and apply this knowledge to improve understanding of species boundaries between Ctenotus. In doing so\, I will provide a more holistic view of how organisms and their traits evolve over time.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:For All Ages Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:In the 19th century\, new ideas about childhood and education\, along with advances in printing like chromolithography\, made it possible to mass-produce games and toys. These were not only fun to play with but also taught practical skills and moral lessons. Learn about familiar and unique toys and board games throughout American history in the William L. Clements Library’s new exhibit\, “For All Ages” on view weekdays from 12-4 pm between October 3-January 5.\n\nEven though the objects are behind glass\, the co-curators have created an interactive way to explore the display. Visit the exhibit to participate in a scavenger hunt and win a prize!
