SUMMARY:Other:Engage Detroit Grant Live ($15\,000)
DESCRIPTION:Interested parties should apply through the website: https://engaged.umich.edu/engagement-detroit/detroit-workshops/\n\nOur Engaged Learning team is seeking proposals for the 2026 Engage Detroit Workshop grant program\, which supports small groups of U-M faculty and staff members organizing a workshop or a speaker series in Detroit. Please consider sharing this information with your faculty and staff who are interested in pursuing projects in Detroit. \n\nContinuing our commitment to partnerships with Detroit\, this grant provides up to $15\,000 in funding for workshops or speaker series that foster meaningful relationships and connections on a topic connecting faculty and staff at the University of Michigan with Detroit communities. The program has awarded 27 projects since its inception in 2022.\n\nIn collaboration with the Dearborn and Flint Provosts\, for 2026\, we are planning to support up to six proposals aimed at organizing a workshop or speaker series on a topic that is both relevant to Detroit communities and brings together multiple initiatives/projects led by UM faculty/staff. \n \nSubmissions are due by March 1\, 2026\; an overview of the program is available here. You can read more about the program in Monday’s Record article\, or at the Engaged Michigan website. You can also review active work by U-M faculty and staff in Detroit\, as reported in our 2025 census map.\n\nPlease direct any questions you may have about the program or application process to engagedmichigan@umich.edu.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Finding Your Postdoctoral Voice Part 2: Interest-Based Negotiation
DESCRIPTION:In this 90-minute interactive\, skills-based workshop\, you will practice the art of negotiating with confidence. Based loosely on the “Getting to Yes” paradigm from the Harvard Negotiation Project\, we will discuss the difference and pros and cons between so-called positional barganing and interest-based (or principled) negotiation. The workshop will highlight how negotiations form a central part of academia and the postdoctoral journey\, and we’ll roleplay a simulated negotiation to help you practice some new skills. Lunch will be provided.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:RESET Demonstration Project: Overview and Technical Background
DESCRIPTION:The seminar will provide an overview and technical background for the Re-Engineering Statistics using Economic Transactions Demonstration Project (RESET DP). This project proposes a new architecture for building official measures of inflation and spending from granular\, item-level transactions data\, offering internally consistent measures of real expenditures and inflation. The RESET architecture aims to replace the existing 20th century infrastructure for official statistics\, which relies on disparate surveys and enumerations\, with one built upon 21st century information systems. The RESET DP will release real-time monthly indices of inflation and sales covering most retail goods in the United States—accounting for almost ten percent of GDP.\n\nItem-level transactions data yield cost-of-living indices that can account for quality change and consumer substitution. Transactions data require confronting the rapid turnover of items because prices of new and existing products are interrelated in equilibrium. The attached paper “Quality Adjustment at Scale: Hedonic vs. Exact Demand-Based Price Indices” evaluates multiple approaches to measuring quality change at scale. It shows that a hedonic superlative approach—using econometrics or machine learning for hedonic estimation combined with index formulas that require simultaneous observation of item-level price and expenditure—yields improved measures of the cost of living. Accounting for ubiquitous quality change and for consumer substitution yields lower measures of inflation than traditional\, official methods.
