SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Vivian R. Shaw Lecture Featuring Honorée Fanonne Jeffers
DESCRIPTION:The Institute for Research on Women & Gender (IRWG) and the Department of Women’s and Gender Studies at the University of Michigan are pleased to welcome acclaimed author\, poet\, and scholar Honorée Fanonne Jeffers as the featured speaker for the Vivian R. Shaw Lecture.\nEstablished in 1997 by Ellen Agress\, the Vivian R. Shaw Lecture is presented biennially by IRWG and Women’s and Gender Studies. The lecture was created to address “real world issues” related to women and gender and has brought distinguished scholars\, writers\, and public intellectuals to the University of Michigan for nearly three decades.\n\nHonorée Fanonne Jeffers is an essayist\, novelist\, poet\, and student of United States history whose work illuminates the intersections of race\, gender\, memory\, and social justice. She is the author of seven books spanning poetry\, fiction\, and nonfiction. Her debut novel\, The Love Songs of W.E.B. Du Bois\, was an instant New York Times bestseller\, an Oprah’s Book Club selection\, and a recipient of numerous honors\, including the National Book Critics Circle Award for Fiction and the Dayton Literary Peace Prize. The novel has been celebrated as one of the most significant works of contemporary American literature\, earning recognition from The Atlantic\, Time\, NPR\, and The New York Times.\n\nAn award-winning poet\, Jeffers is also the author of The Age of Phillis\, a groundbreaking collection based on fifteen years of archival research into the life and legacy of Phillis Wheatley Peters\, the first Africana woman to publish a book in the Americas. The collection received the NAACP Image Award for Poetry and the Lenore Marshall Prize and has become a widely taught text in classrooms across the United States.\n\nJeffers serves as Editor-at-Large for The Kenyon Review and has received fellowships from organizations including the National Endowment for the Arts\, the American Antiquarian Society\, and the Library of Congress. Her contributions to literature and scholarship have been recognized with the Harper Lee Award for Literary Distinction and induction into the Alabama Writers Hall of Fame.\n\nJoin us for an engaging evening with one of the nation’s most celebrated literary voices as she reflects on history\, storytelling\, identity\, and the enduring significance of women and gender in shaping our understanding of the world.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Making Confident Money Decisions
DESCRIPTION:Dinner provided! Registration is required for food planning purposes.\n\nPLEASE NOTE: Doors open at 5:15\, and programming begins promptly at 5:30 pm.\n\nRecommended order to take workshops:\n\n    1 – Your Money Story\n    2 – Making Confident Financial Decisions\n    3 – Ultimate Financial Wellness\n    4 – Caring for Your$elf\n    5 – Be The Boss of Your Finances\n\nIt’s pretty common for students to feel overwhelmed when it comes to making financial decisions. But just because it’s common\, doesn’t mean it’s ok. This workshop will help students learn how to dial down financial confusion so they can start making money-related decisions with confidence. Attendees will learn why making money-related decisions can cause so much stress\, how to deal with financial choices (and if it’s working)\, and various ways to dial down the discomfort to start making money decisions with more confidence.\n\nRSVP for other workshops in the series here: https://myumi.ch/8r6kq

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Science Café: Here Comes the Sun
DESCRIPTION:Get a head start on U-M's Climate Week by joining us for a solar-powered Science Café presented by Dr. Rohini Bala Chandran from the U-M Department of Mechanical Engineering and Shoshannah Lenski\, Executive Director of Ann Arbor Sustainable Energy Utility (A2SEU).\nThe Sun’s energy is the driving force behind some of our most important energy technologies. While solar panels (arrays that convert sunlight to electricity) have become common in both urban and rural areas\, solar-to-heat and solar-to-fuel conversion is still an emerging technology. Dr. Bala Chandran will share her latest research on understanding thermal radiation in solar–heat and solar–fuel applications using new experimental techniques and computational models.\nUnderstanding how the Sun’s energy travels through radiative transport is vital to optimizing new technologies and developing long-term climate solutions. After those technologies have been perfected\, the next challenge is implementation. In the case of Ann Arbor\, that’s where A2SEU comes in. Shoshannah will provide the policy and implementation perspective on what it means to provide local\, renewable and clean energy solutions.\nHors d’oeuvres will be served at 5:30 p.m.\, and the program begins at 6 p.m. Seating is limited\, so come early.
