SUMMARY:Exhibition:Cosmo Whyte: Under the Quiet\, Beyond the Eye
DESCRIPTION:Curated by Srimoyee Mitra\n\nStamps Gallery kicks off the fall 2026 semester with an ambitious mid-career survey of interdisciplinary artist Cosmo Whyte. Born and raised in Jamaica\, Whyte completed a BFA from Bennington College and earned an MFA from the University of Michigan. He is currently a faculty member at the School of the Arts and Architecture\, UCLA.\n\nThis exhibition brings together two central concerns that animate Whyte’s artistic practice: the archive\, both personal and public\, as a site of disturbance\; and migration as a lived experience of refuge\, refusal\, and reinvention. In Whyte’s work\, the archive is never static or neutral. Rather\, it is a contested space where official histories encounter memory\, inheritance\, and the fragments of stories carried across generations. His practice moves within this charged interstitial terrain\, between what has been recorded and what has been remembered\, between institutional knowledge and embodied experience. Whyte invites the viewer to consider the fluidity of geographic borders and layered cultural identities that have persisted despite societal unrest caused by racial and socio-economic hierarchies across generations. In an era of intensified border politics and renewed debates over national identity\, Whyte’s work offers a timely meditation on memory\, movement\, and belonging.\n\nPresented with support from the U-M Institute for Humanities\, the U-M LSA Center for Latin American and Caribbean Studies\, and the U-M Library.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Tuesday Seminar Series - Habitat drivers of insect-mediated ecosystem services in agricultural landscapes
DESCRIPTION:Seminar Summary - Habitat in the landscape plays a key role for conservation and insect-mediated ecosystem services. While global insect declines and biodiversity crises have highlighted the role of habitat reserves\, equally important is the matrix of habitats woven into working\, agricultural landscapes. I explore how habitat complexity affects insects and associated ecosystem functions in oil palm cultivation and agroforestry restoration in Indonesia. Zooming out in spatial scale\, I discuss my current work modeling habitat complexity over regional agricultural landscapes\, focusing on spatiotemporal variability in floral resources for bees in North America.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Emotions at Work: Mental Fitness for Career Success
DESCRIPTION:Negative emotions at work are inevitable\, but they don’t have to derail your performance or well-being. Many of us default to hiding or ignoring difficult feelings\; without the right tools\, that can lead to unintended consequences and missed insight.\n\nAdvancing the Human Health and Well-Being impact area of U-M’s Look to Michigan vision\, this global virtual panel will explore how mental fitness supports career growth. Ethan Kross\, renowned U-M professor\, international bestselling author of Chatter and Shift\, and director of the U-M Mental Fitness Institute — a moonshot effort to reduce global suffering — will be joined by career coach Stacy Kim\, author of Envy\, to share practical strategies for managing and using negative emotions more effectively.\n\nUsing envy as a case study\, they’ll show how emotions can reveal what you want\, what to pursue\, and who to learn from.\n\nMyths we’ll challenge: \n\nThere are “good” and “bad” emotions\nAvoidance is always toxic\, and venting is always helpful\nComparing yourself with others is the problem\n\nYou’ll leave with:\n\nConcrete tools and exercises to build mental fitness at work  \nStrategies for handling emotional “chatter” and relationship curveballs  \nGreater calm\, confidence\, and clarity\; plus resources to learn more
