SUMMARY:Exhibition:Suave Mechanicals: A Celebration of Nine Volumes on the Art and History of Bookbinding (2013–2025)
DESCRIPTION:Explore the art of judging books by their covers! This exhibit highlights a selection of rare books from the University of Michigan's collections\, each of them representing binding topics featured in \"Suave Mechanicals\,\" the acclaimed nine-volume series dedicated to the study of the art and history of bookbinding.  \n\nSpanning from 2013 to 2025\, \"Suave Mechanicals\" contains 85 essays\, 27 of which examine the same type of binding as the artifacts on display. Edited by Julia Miller and published by Cathleen A. Baker of The Legacy Press\, the series was conceived as a platform for fresh\, in-depth scholarship on bookbinding\, from its earliest origins to contemporary practice.  \n\nContributors include first-time authors and established experts — bookbinders\, conservators\, librarians\, curators\, catalogers\, book artists\, collectors\, and historians — offering a vibrant array of voices and insights into the craftsmanship\, culture\, and enduring fascination of bookbinding.\n\nJoin us for Coffee with the Curator on October 1\, 10am-12pm.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Evolution of Campus\, 1838-1963: A Cartographic Celebration of U-M's History
DESCRIPTION:Learn about the campus’ history and architecture and explore the campus that might have been. This exhibit highlights the U-M Ann Arbor campus\, both before its creation and throughout its continuous evolution. Featuring the work of famous architects such as Alexander Jackson Davis\, Albert Kahn and Eero Saarinen\, the exhibit presents maps\, plans\, architectural drawings\, proposals\, and photographs of the campus throughout its evolution.  \n\nThis exhibit was originally part of a larger exhibit displayed from July 2017 to January 2018 to commemorate U-M's bicentennial.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Getting Started in Community Engaged Research
DESCRIPTION:Community-engaged research is a valuable\, high impact methodology that can contribute to the University of Michigan’s mission of developing new academic knowledge while advancing the public good. Community-engaged research encompasses a range of disciplinary and interdisciplinary approaches\, but what this body of work shares is substantive involvement of community partners in creating\, translating\, and disseminating knowledge that strengthens the well-being of communities and broader society.  Ginsberg Center’s Getting Started with Community-Engaged Research will introduce you to definitions\, spectrums\, and some frameworks of community-engaged research\, including examples from multiple disciplines. Participants will consider how to apply these workshop concepts to their own research\, and leave the workshop with tools to begin to approach this work ethically and equitably.\n\nThis session is designed especially for participants who are new to or interested in community-engaged research at Michigan. \n\nOpen to faculty\, staff\, admin\, and post-docs. Graduate students who are interested in attending can email ginsberginfo@umich.edu for more information. This session is not open to undergraduate students\n\nRegister Here: https://sessions.studentlife.umich.edu/track/event/session/97060

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Investment\, Productivity\, and Selection in the U.S. Shale Boom
DESCRIPTION:Why was the U.S. shale oil and gas revolution so revolutionary? As the U.S. Energy Information Administration quipped in 2024\, ``the U.S. produces more crude oil than any country\, ever''. The current\, record\, rate of production has been achieved though increases in the industry's oil and gas production per well\, which have out-weighed a decrease in the drilling of new wells since the onset of the boom in 2010. This project asks how\, why\, and when the industry achieved these gains. Our primary focus\, at least for now\, is on decomposing the evolution of output per well into changes due to drilling site selection versus changes due to firms' adoption of improved technologies or fracking inputs. Site selection could be positive (better geologic locations are drilled first)\, negative (firms learn over time which locations are best)\, or some of both. We evaluate these possibilities by developing and estimating a joint model of oil production and drilling decisions. While the model is tailored to the shale oil and gas setting\, its core ideas are applicable to other settings in which the productive outcome of an investment is a function of both the investment's location and the investing firm's skill in executing the project\, conditional on location. The model uses local variation in land leasing difficulty as identifying variation that shifts the timing of firms' first well drilled in each location. And it accounts for firms' ability to learn from previously drilled wells' production realizations before deciding whether to drill additional wells in the same location. Using data from the Bakken Shale in North Dakota\, we find evidence of positive selection early in the boom and negative selection later\, but these effects are swamped by a large increase (~0.5 log points) in output per well that is driven by changes in firms' inputs and application of technology\, conditional on location. Most of this increase occurred shortly after the sharp fall in oil prices and drilling activity in late 2014\, consistent with ``slack time'' theories of innovation.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Statistics Department Seminar Series: Jing Lei\, Professor\, Department of Statistics & Data Science\, Carnegie Mellon University
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Cross-validation is one of the most widely used tools for model quality assessment and comparison. When combined with appropriate notions of stability\, cross-validation can be adapted to solve many interesting inference problems. In this talk\, I will describe two examples. The first is a variant of cross-validation\, called \"rolling validation\,\" which can achieve superior model selection accuracy for batch data and is naturally extendable to online problems. The second is the construction of confidence sets in discrete population comparison or model selection problems.
