SUMMARY:Performance:Lon Mitchell\, carillon
DESCRIPTION:Lon Mitchell performs on the Ann & Robert H. Lurie Carillon\, an instrument of 60 bells with the lowest bell (bourdon) weighing 6 tons.\n\nThirty-minute recitals are performed on the Lurie Carillon every weekday that classes are in session. During these recitals\, visitors may take the elevator to level 2 to view the largest bells\, or to level 3 to see the carillonist performing. (Visitors subject to acrophobia are recommended to visit level 2 only.) An optional spiral stairway between levels 2 and 3 allows for up-close views of some of the largest bells.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Interdisciplinary Workshop on Comparative Politics & The Social Sciences
DESCRIPTION:The Interdisciplinary Workshop in Comparative Politics & The Social Sciences (IWCP) provides a platform for sharing and improving research projects that use the comparative method to study the causes and effects of social\, political and economic processes. We specifically welcome presenters\, discussants\, and participants from other social science fields to share their work with us. We have participants from Economics\, the Ford School of Public Policy\, the Law School\, the Lieberthal-Rogel Center for Chinese Studies\, Mathematics\, Political Science\, the Ross School of Business\, Sociology\, Statistics\, and the Center for Emerging Democracies\, and others. In other words: All are welcome.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:T.REX
DESCRIPTION:With stunning CGI visuals and the latest research from leading paleontologists\, the film offers audiences a fresh perspective on the GOAT (Greatest Of All Tyrants): Tyrannosaurus rex. Anchored by the true story of the young fossil hunters who made the discovery of a lifetime when they spotted a large fossilized leg bone on a walk on public lands in North Dakota\, T. REX intercuts the remarkable fossil dig\, with cutting edge computer graphics that bring the iconic T. rex to life—from hatchling to hulking adult. Narrated by Jurassic Park actor Sam Neill\, T. REX explores the newest science that has helped reinvent our understanding of the iconic predator.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:An introduction to webs (Combinatorics seminar)
DESCRIPTION:The combinatorial spider is a diagrammatic category that encodes quantum sl(n) representations\, and was formalized by Kuperberg.  Webs are certain directed planar graphs (with edge-weights)\, corresponding to the morphisms in this category\, and endowed with skein-type relations that indicate algebraic equivalences.  Webs are well-understood in the case n=2\, when they are essentially noncrossing matchings (or Temperley-Lieb diagrams)\, and in the substantially more complicated case n=3. \n\nIn this talk\, we sketch some of the historical evolution of webs\, including work of Kuperberg\, Khovanov\, Fontaine\, and Cautis-Kamnitzer-Morrison\, as well as the convergence with a collection of combinatorial ideas about plabic graphs from Postnikov\, Fomin-Pylyavskyy\, Fraser-Lam-Le\, and others.  We also describe a new approach\, joint with Heather M. Russell\, that uses a set of colored paths called \emph{strands} to give a global construction for webs\, via graph-theoretic and combinatorial notions generalized from smaller dimensions. Time permitting\, we'll also allude to connections to algebraic geometry.
