SUMMARY:Performance:Christine El-Hage Walters & Grace Jackson\, carillon
DESCRIPTION:Christine El-Hage Walters & Grace Jackson perform on the Charles Baird Carillon\, an instrument of 53 bronze bells located inside the Burton Memorial Tower. The largest bell\, which strikes the hour\, weighs 12 tons\, while the smallest bell\, 4½ octaves above\, weighs just 15 pounds.\n\nThirty-minute recitals are performed on the Charles Baird Carillon at noon every weekday that classes are in session\, followed by visitor Q&A with the carillonist. The bell chamber may be accessed via a combination of elevator and stairs. Take the elevator to the highest floor possible (floor 8)\, and then climb two flights of stairs (39 steps) to the bell chamber (floor 10). Earplugs are available from the carillonist upon request. Be prepared to walk on ice and snow in the bell chamber during winter. Built in 1936\, the Charles Baird Carillon is not ADA accessible. Visitors with mobility concerns are invited to visit the Lurie Carillon: https://smtd.umich.edu/facilities/ann-and-robert-h-lurie-carillon/

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EEB Tuesday Seminar Series - Complexity and Color Pattern Evolution in a Snake Mimicry System
DESCRIPTION:This event is part of our ongoing Tuesday Seminar Series.\n\nAbout the seminar: Mimicry is an evolutionary phenomenon that crafts phenotypes into shared signals through strongly-selected ecological interactions. Predators are effectively fooled into avoiding perfectly edible prey\, because these “mimics” evolve phenotypes that make them appear similar to toxic inedible species. These small-scale ecological interactions are drivers of phenotypic evolution\, thus creating large-scale phenotypic patterns that manifest across phylogenies. My dissertation will investigate aspects of this complexity within coral snake mimicry\, an assortment of venomous and nonvenomous snakes brightly colored in their shared signal – bands of red and black. I will discuss my first chapter\, which leverages phenotypic variation to test hypotheses from mimicry theory at a macro scale\, and some of another chapter\, a theoretical model of snake mimicry.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Fluoride exposure\, neurodevelopment & public health implications
DESCRIPTION:Zoom Registration required https://myumi.ch/1bkPr\n\nThe Integrated Health Sciences Core's webinar series is an interdisciplinary forum for interested researchers to come together to learn and discuss wide-ranging issues in the field of environmental health. The mission of the University of Michigan Lifestage Environmental Exposures and Disease Center (M-LEEaD) is to accelerate research that defines impacts of environmental exposures during vulnerable life stages\, and to promote translation of findings to improve clinical and public health interventions for the mitigation of disease.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LRCCS Noon Lecture Series | The Cultural Revolution in a Confucian School: Radical Conservative Movement of Grassroots Confucianism in Contemporary China
DESCRIPTION:Attend in person or via Zoom: https://myumi.ch/g1ggR\n\nDujing\, literally meaning “reading” (du) “classics” (jing)\, is a grassroots Confucian education movement in contemporary Chinese societies. Originating in Taiwan in 1994\, this movement has mobilized hundreds of thousands of youths to read Confucian classics aloud without regard for understanding\, with the hope that repetitive recitation will eventually lead to eternal wisdom (dao). In its most intensive forms\, seen in Mainland China\, students read for eight hours a day for years and are often urged by parents (usually mothers) to drop out of legally mandatory mainstream schooling.\n   \n   Although the revival of Confucianism may easily be reduced to cultural engineering by party regimes (both PRC and ROC)\, Dr. Zeng argues that dujing prefigures the radical moral politics embedded in grassroots Confucianism and similar radical conservative movements in China. The ethnographic focus of this talk is a “Cultural Revolution”-like campaign within the movement. He analyzes the productive tensions of dujing in three facets: autonomist Confucianism\, moral schismogenesis\, and the alienation of wisdom/authority. This talk informs reflections on political culture in China\, moral anthropology\, and studies of grassroots social movements.\n   \n   As an anthropologist\, Dr. Zeng’s knowledge production focuses on ethnographically understanding the situational dynamics and dilemmas of family\, education\, religion\, and social movement in contemporary mainland China and Taiwan. His dissertation\, “Canonical Reading\, Alternative Education\, and the Movement of Eternal Wisdom in Contemporary Chinese Societies”\, interrogates the contemporary grassroots Confucianism in contemporary Chinese societies by probing the intersection of language\, knowledge\, gender\, and social movement. He also co-runs the public anthropology platform Tying Knots 结绳志 and experiments with multiple ways to do urgent and engaged ethnography.\n   \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.
