SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:SAPAC GROWE: Engendering Respectful Communities Workshops - SY26 - 27
DESCRIPTION:Engendering Respectful Communities (ERC) is a one session workshop that engages graduate students in meaningful dialogue about various forms of sexual misconduct they may encounter in both professional and social spaces\, and provides resources for intervention or support in such circumstances.The primary goal of the workshop is to address complexities experienced by graduate students as they engage in bystander intervention\, so that participants gain an increase in awareness of barriers to action and familiarity with strategic planning to overcome them. The workshop also introduces participants to on-campus resources and provides knowledge on how sexual misconduct can unfold in graduate-specific settings.The ERC workshop uses small-group circles intended to promote active reflection and space to build community. The procedure of circles is introduced at the beginning of the workshop in order to help participants get used to the process\, which they do through a circle for introductions and value-sharing for the workshop space. These circles depict various\, realistic scenarios related to sexual misconduct within the graduate community. The circle process allows circle members to process the monologues\, reflect on complexities with identity and power dynamics within them\, name potential barriers to intervention\, and think of various ways in which they might respond if faced with similar situations. The circles provide a way to foster collective building of ideas\, where participants learn from one another and all input is equally valued. Participants are encouraged to share but can always pass if desired\, creating an environment where participation is open but not forced. Due to the participatory nature of the workshop\, if you are to arrive more than 20 minutes late\, we will ask you to re-register for another workshop session.If you have any questions about or concerns with taking this workshop\, or are in need of an exemption\, please contact jhippe@umich.edu or fill out this form. We know some students come to campus having already experienced harm. If you have circumstances that make completing this course challenging\, please reach out to the GROWE team. SAPAC GROWE provides exemptions to the ERC workshop (where requirements are set in place) on a case by case basis. The Program Manager will communicate with students requesting exemptions via email and/or meet with students via zoom meetings to discuss their need for exemptions and provide any relevant and necessary resources.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Small Works: Prints & Book Objects from Detroit\, 2020–2026
DESCRIPTION:Small Works\nPrints & Book Objects from Detroit 2020–2026\n\nOctober 21 - November 19 \nPublic Reception: Friday\, November 13 from 4:30-6pm.\n\nSmall Works was a print shop ran by Li Chen & Gerald Schulze\, in Detroit\, MI\, from 2020–2026. Mariana Matos joined as the studio assistant\, and later studio manager\, in 2024. Over those six years\, the business grew from an extension of their design practice to a community space that hosts more than 70 classes a year\, open studio for the public\, and year long funded fellowships that investigate practice in art and design related to the Book Arts. In 2026\, they decided to expand community programming\, and to accommodate this expansion closed Small Works\, and formed Center for the Book Arts Detroit (BAD) which operates in the same space.\n\nThis exhibition is a eulogy for the former Small Works shop\, and a celebration of all the people who made work here. It also serves to show what is possible as a community\, when they share space and create work together. \n\nThe work featured is a collection of things printed by Small Works\, by their studiomates Diskette Press\, the publisher Maamoul Press\, and by the community that uses the space.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Political Communication Working Group (PCWG)
DESCRIPTION:The Political Communication Working Group (PCWG) is an interdisciplinary workshop for graduate students and faculty to convene and discuss how political messages are produced\, disseminated\, and interpreted in contemporary media environments. Our core research topics focus on the evolving relationships between media\, politics\, and society. Drawing on the interdisciplinary fields of communication\, political science\, sociology\, and information science\, our members explore a wide range of topics such as public support for entertainment censorship\, climate change communication\, social learning on TikTok\, political para-social relationships\, polarization\, political biases in AI-generated content\, etc. Our sessions encourage the exchange of ideas and work across theoretical and methodological traditions.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:The Greek Manuscripts of the University of Michigan: A Celebration of the Collection and Its Catalogue
DESCRIPTION:Join us to celebrate the culmination of a decade-and-a-half-long project to fully catalog the University of Michigan Library’s extraordinary collection of Greek manuscripts. \n\nA Catalogue of Greek Manuscripts\, Volume 2 (https://myumi.ch/NXVQr)\, published by U-M Press\, brings this monumental undertaking to a close\, making one of the most extensive collections of Greek manuscripts in North America accessible to scholars around the world.\n\nEnjoy breakfast refreshments while three scholars offer complementary perspectives on the study of Greek manuscripts:\n\nTHE MAKING OF A CATALOGUE OF GREEK MANUSCRIPTS AT THE UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN: CHALLENGES\, ACHIEVEMENT\, AND DISCOVERIES with Nadezhda Kavrus-Hoffmann\, cataloger of U-M’s Greek manuscript collection.\n\nVolume 2 covers eighty-four manuscripts and fragments. Overall\, these manuscripts span a thousand years of history\, from the ninth to the nineteenth century\, and include a wide range of subjects\, from Bible texts and saints' lives to church music and secular writing.\n\nLearn about the detective work behind the project\, including three especially exciting finds: a small fragment that turned out to preserve lost portions of a medieval Byzantine text on Indian mathematics\; a beautifully illuminated fourteenth-century manuscript paired with poetry written specifically for it\; and a manuscript that may be traced back to the personal library of a nineteenth-century monk-scholar\, opening a new mystery about how it came to Michigan.\n\nTHE PRINCESS AND THE PHILOSOPHER: ANNA COMNENA AND THE MANUSCRIPTS OF ARISTOTLE'S \"ETHICS\" with Richard Janko\, professor of Greek in the Department of Classical Studies\, who has drawn on the collection for teaching and research.\n\nThe Byzantine historian and would-be empress Anna Comnena\, confined for life to a nunnery in Constantinople after trying to depose her imperial brother\, was a passionate philosopher. Beginning in 1118 C.E. she organized a scholarly edition of Aristotle's \"Nicomachean Ethics\" and induced three other scholars to write commentaries on it. Several remarkable paper manuscripts\, now precisely datable because they belong to her project\, reflect this effort. They show how her team evolved useful conventions like the comma and the footnote-number\, and worked with Italian scholars to create the earliest translation of this work into Latin. \n\nALWAYS INTERESTING: SELECTED BINDINGS FROM THE UM GREEK MANUSCRIPT COLLECTION with Julia Miller\, bookbinding historian and contributor to the catalogue.\n\nMiller will focus on a selection of bindings\, looking at their structure\, materials\, and decoration — chosen based on gorgeous images in the catalogue of bindings ranging from small and exquisite\, Mich. Ms. 68 (15th century)\, and larger but equally beautiful\, Mich. Ms. 172 (14th century)\, both in their original and completely traditional Greek bindings\, to the fascinating layers of repair and rebinding represented by Mich. Ms. 76 (17th century).
