SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Student Seminar in Dynamics\, Geometry\, and Topology: Poincare Conjecture
DESCRIPTION:The (generalized) Poincare conjecture is one of the most important problems in mathematics and has guided the development of the field of topology for over a century. It asserts that an n dimensional homotopy sphere is isomorphic to S^n in the appropriate category (topological\, PL\, or smooth). We will discuss the history of this conjecture and some of the tools that have been used in proving different cases of the conjecture.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Who Owns Our Knowledge? An African University Press Perspective
DESCRIPTION:Who owns our knowledge in a global academic landscape shaped by powerful commercial publishers? The 2025 International Open Access Week theme raises urgent questions for regions where local publishing systems\, especially in low- and middle-income countries\, are often sidelined.\n\nNwach Egbunike brings an African university press perspective to this debate. Drawing on his extensive experience\, Dr. Egbunike will discuss how African presses navigate systemic barriers to visibility and authority within the global scholarly ecosystem. While open access is frequently championed as a corrective\, Dr. Egbunike asks whether it truly addresses marginalization—or might new models be required. His talk will challenge us to examine the complex realities of ownership\, access\, and equity in knowledge production\, and how universities and publishers in Africa are charting their own paths amidst these global challenges. \n\nThe presentation will be followed by a conversation about knowledge inequality with Dr. Arsim Canolli\, associate professor of Cultural Anthropology at the University of Prishtina in Kosova.\n\nSponsored by the University of Michigan Department of Afroamerican and African Studies (DAAS)\, the African Studies Center\, the University of Michigan Press\, and the Association of University Presses.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Foundations of Community Engagement
DESCRIPTION:Foundations of Community Engagement is an interactive workshop for students that introduces principles and practices of equitable\, ethical community engagement. Participants will develop a deeper understanding of what the term “community engagement” means\, as well as the many forms it might take - from research and course-based projects to philanthropy\, activism\, policy\, and direct service. Across all these forms of engagement\, participants will learn concepts and actions that promote equitable partnerships\, center community-defined priorities\, and disrupt entrenched power dynamics between universities and community members. Participants will also discuss real-world community engagement scenarios that ask them to apply what they’ve learned in the workshop to various situations.
