SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Readiness: Preparing State Early Childhood Systems for a Brighter Future
DESCRIPTION:Elliot Regenstein will discuss how state early childhood systems really work – how state governments oversee publicly funded programs\, how community capacity supports state work\, how advocates and philanthropists try to exercise influence\, and how data is used to shape policy.\n\nElliot Regenstein\, Law '99\, is a Chicago-based partner at Foresight Law + Policy. Elliot has extensive experience in state-level policy and advocacy\, with an emphasis on early learning. Much of his work focuses on decision-making in state education and early education systems: who is responsible for which decisions\, what information they have to support those decisions\, and what incentives are acting on key stakeholders.

SUMMARY:Well-being:ResNavs #SoYF Plant a Shamrock
DESCRIPTION:It's time for the luck 'o the Irish\, so stop by and plant a shamrock for your very own lucky charm. Here's some trivia: the word Shamrock is derived from the Irish seamróg\, meaning “young clover\,\" and is thought to ward off evil spirits\, either through the Christian lens of the holy trinity or by Druids believing carrying a three-leaf Shamrock would enable them to escape bad luck. It's also from the Druids that the lore of the leprechaun\, a mischievous elf who plays tricks on humans\, began. \n\nShamrocks\, while their stems are seemingly delicate\, are a pretty hardy plant. Requiring indirect sunlight and good drainage\, they'll thrive outdoors in Michigan summers. (We have some personal experience with growing them\, but we used this website for reference: https://www.planetnatural.com/shamrock-plant/.) Also\, don't confuse them: Shamrocks have three leaves\, while clover has four.\n\nThe odds of finding a four-leaf Shamrock are 1:10\,000\, so why not plant your own\, instead? Caring and nurturing nature is a good for your overall wellbeing\, whether or not you're feeling lucky!\n\nThe #SoYF series (Smile on Your Face) are wellbeing breaks designed to introduce students to the eight facets of the Wolverine Wellness wheel\; for more on the U-M Wellbeing Collective\, visit the website on the right under Links.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CommUNITY Seminar with Sylvia Hurtado \"Strategies for Expanding Participation in STEM Research Training\"
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Hurtado has two decades of NIH and NSF-sponsored research on a variety of campus practices to enhance participation in STEM research training at the undergraduate and graduate level. The projects move from student experiences toward understanding faculty as campus change agents\, and extending practices for organizational learning and institutional transformation. She will provide key features of recent published studies that focus on building long term change and extending program interventions to embed them in the culture and structure of the institution. Results are based on mixed methods designs that underscore the value of mentoring\, and leadership support for turning faculty-driven initiatives toward adoption as campus daily work. Implications for investment at the federal\, state\, and institutional level to train the next generation of diverse and innovative researchers are discussed.
