SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Graduate: Spiritual Wellness Group
DESCRIPTION:What grounds you? What gives your life meaning? And how do you make space to actually think about those questions in the middle of college life?\n\nSpiritual Wellness Group is an 8-week small-group experience designed to help students slow down\, reflect\, and develop skills for tending to their inner lives.\n\nThrough conversation\, reflection\, creative activities\, and shared practices\, participants will strengthen skills in self-awareness\, values clarification\, deep listening\, meaningful conversation\, navigating differences\, and identifying practices that support their well-being. Together\, we’ll explore how our identities\, relationships\, experiences\, beliefs\, questions\, and values shape the way we understand ourselves and the world around us.\n\nYou do not need to identify as religious or spiritual to participate. This is a space for curiosity rather than certainty—where students can ask big questions\, learn from one another\, and become more intentional about what helps them feel grounded and connected.\n\nBy the end of the eight weeks\, we hope participants leave with:\n\nA clearer understanding of the values and experiences that shape them\nPractical tools for reflection and spiritual well-being\nGreater confidence having meaningful conversations across different beliefs and perspectives\nStronger listening and relationship-building skills\nNew practices for finding grounding\, meaning\, and connection in everyday life\nA community of students willing to engage thoughtfully with some of life's bigger questions\n\nSeparate groups are available for undergraduate and graduate students. Light refreshments are provided during sessions\, and participants will conclude the eight weeks with a celebration dinner together.\n\nCome as you are. You don't need to have your spirituality figured out—you just need to be willing to explore.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:How to Grad Student: Becoming an Effective Writer in Graduate School
DESCRIPTION:Whether you are moving directly from your undergraduate degree or returning after some time away\, the first term of graduate school will challenge you to expand skills critical to your success. Two of the most essential skills needed to thrive are reading and writing. This four-part Rackham/Sweetland workshop series will showcase reading and writing practices for new graduate students that will inform your approaches to reading and writing through the course of your graduate career.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Joining a Scholarly Conversation
DESCRIPTION:Whether you are moving directly from your undergraduate degree or returning after some time away\, the first term of graduate school will challenge you to expand skills critical to your success. Two of the most essential skills needed to thrive are reading and writing. This four-part Rackham/Sweetland workshop series will showcase reading and writing practices for new graduate students that will inform your approaches to reading and writing through the course of your graduate career.\n\nThis workshop will address how reading skills and writing conventions allow you to ethically represent others’ knowledge and support your arguments. Participants will work with peers to talk through rhetorical decisions scholars make when identifying and responding to interlocutors and set goals of how to use the workshop experience in their own graduate writing careers.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Powering the AI Future with Leadership Silicon
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Artificial Intelligence (AI) is rapidly reshaping how we work\, live\, and interact with the entire physical world. This revolution is fundamentally fueled by semiconductor innovation—stretching from energy-efficient transistors to advanced integration technologies like CoWoS®\, 3D stacking\, and heterogeneous packaging. As power delivery\, memory access\, and high-speed signaling become critical bottlenecks to AI scaling\, next-generation solutions are emerging as vital pillars for system-level performance. At the foundational device level\, transistor scaling continues to drive performance – the industry is transitioning from FinFET to Nanosheets. Advanced 2.5D and 3D packaging transcend fundamental reticle limits with fine-pitch hybrid bonding and high-aspect-ratio TSVs. By enabling highly integrated\, heterogeneous chiplet architectures\, these packaging and integration innovations will deliver unprecedented memory bandwidth and energy efficiency. Overcoming the I/O power wall in next-generation AI fabrics requires Co-Packaged Optics (CPO) powered by advanced silicon photonics like COUPE (Compact Universal Photonic Engine). This new AI platform delivers ultra-low latency\, high-density connectivity\, and sub-pJ/bit energy efficiency essential for massive AI workloads. This talk will present state-of-the-art semiconductor platform technologies designed for AI applications\, while outlining the future opportunities and directions of the industry.\n\nBio: Dr. Kevin Zhang currently serves as Deputy Co-COO and Senior Vice President at Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. Ltd. (TSMC)\, where he is responsible for the company-wide business strategy and global sales\, including technology roadmap and customer engagement. Before joining TSMC\, Dr. Zhang was Vice President of Technology and Manufacturing Group and Director of Circuit Technology at Intel. He was elected as Intel Fellow in 2005 and led his teams to win 5 Intel Achievement Awards\, the highest technical accomplishments in the company. Dr. Zhang has published more than 80 papers at international conferences and in technical journals. He holds 55 U.S. patents in the field of integrated circuit technology. He was the 2016 International Solid-State Circuit Conference (ISSCC) Program chair and conference chair for 2021/2022 and currently serves on the Advisory Board of MIT Engineering School. Dr. Zhang is a Fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). He holds a Ph.D. degree in Electrical Engineering from Duke University.\n\nLecture will be followed by a reception in the Masco Commons.
