SUMMARY:Exhibition:Resistance is Fertile: Celebrating 30 Years of Cultivating Change
DESCRIPTION:Resistance Is Fertile honors the founding moment of the Institute for Research on Women & Gender\, while speaking to the present. The institute was established because faculty members believed that research on women\, gender\, and sexuality required an institutional commitment to thrive. That belief was itself a form of resistance—to disciplinary silos\, to marginalization\, to the idea that such scholarship was peripheral.\n\nThis theme reminds us that resistance is not merely reactive\; it is constructive. When rooted in collaboration and sustained through infrastructure\, it produces knowledge that reshapes disciplines\, institutions\, and public life.\n\nThis exhibit celebrates 30 years of IRWG—its history\, its programs\, and the people whose vision and labor built it into what it is today. Through archival materials\, milestones\, and stories\, we trace the evolution of an institute that has continually expanded the boundaries of research in women\, gender\, and sexuality.\n\nThis exhibit centers growth\, collaboration\, and intellectual creativity—honoring the sustained efforts\, bold ideas\, and collective care that have shaped IRWG’s legacy and continue to guide its future.\n\nHosted and sponsored by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Department of Women’s and Gender Studies\, U-M. \n\nLocated on the first floor of Lane Hall (204 S. State Street)\, the Exhibit Space is free and open to the public\, M-F\, 9am-4pm.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Algorithmic Awareness: An AI Workshop for Master's Students
DESCRIPTION:Do you wonder how AI impacts the integrity of your research data? Are you concerned about hidden biases within automated tools? This workshop introduces algorithmic awareness as a vital skill for modern scholars. You will examine case studies like the COMPAS system to understand how code reinforces social inequality. We provide specific tools to help you identify factual errors and AI \"hallucinations\" in your output. Participants learn to value human perspectives over machine-generated summaries to ensure inclusive research practices. This session serves incoming graduate students looking to build an ethical foundation for their academic careers.\n\nPlease note: This workshop is designed with master's students in mind. If you have any questions\, please contact rackhampdeworkshops@umich.edu.
