2024-10-07 16:30 - 18:00 (America/Detroit) | Industrial and Operations Engineering Building - 1680
Michigan Medicine pioneered the first ED-ICU in the country. Over the past decade, this model has begun to spread...however, as this approach gains traction, hospitals with limited budgets face challenges in adopting this “Cadillac solution.” This seminar explores how critically ill patients, such as those with respiratory failure, diabetic emergencies, or overdoses, are identified and treated in different hospital settings. Attendees will discuss the financial impacts, challenges, and potential solutions for these institutions.

Presentation:U-M Psychology Community Talks: Dr. Kevin Cokley
2024-10-07 18:00 - 19:30 | Off Campus Location
Talk Overview: Do you ever doubt your achievements? Have negative self-talk? Come up with excuses for your success? Feel like your failures define you? Feel like you don’t belong? Question your abilities? You are not alone. These are all hallmarks of the impostor phenomenon. These thoughts and feelings are common among many people, with research indicating that over 80% of people report having impostor feelings. The impostor phenomenon is especially prevalent among women and minoritized individuals. In this talk, Dr. Kevin Cokley will engage participants in a research-informed discussion about the impostor phenomenon. He will discuss how the impostor phenomenon is created and describe the impostor cycle. Dr. Cokley will highlight his research that examines how the impostor phenomenon impacts mental health and achievement among women and minoritized individuals and make the case for why there needs to be a reconceptualized, racialized impostor phenomenon. Dr. Cokley will end by providing recommendations on how to combat impostor feelings.

About the Speaker: Kevin Cokley, Ph.D. is the University Diversity and Social Transformation Professor and Professor of Psychology at the University of Michigan where he serves as Associate Chair of Diversity Initiatives for the Department of Psychology. Dr. Cokley studies the psychosocial experiences of African American students and students of color and is currently exploring the impostor phenomenon and its relationship to mental health and academic outcomes. He is the past Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Black Psychology and holds the title of Distinguished Psychologist from the Association of Black Psychologists. He is past President of the Society for the Psychological Study of Culture, Ethnicity, and Race, and was elected to Fellow status in the American Psychological Association for his contributions to ethnic minority psychology and counseling psychology. He is editor of the 2024 book “The Impostor Phenomenon: Psychological Research, Theory, and Interventions.” His research on the impostor phenomenon has been featured in the New York Times and the Harvard Business Review. Dr. Cokley has given numerous invited talks on the impostor phenomenon at places including Johns Hopkins University, the University of Chicago, UCLA Semel Institute for Neuroscience and Human Behavior Grand Rounds, Notre Dame University Law School, the International Toastmaster Conference, and Morgan Stanley.

Exploring the Mind: Community Talks by U-M Psychology Faculty is a talk series held in collaboration with the Ann Arbor District Library (AADL).

Talks for Fall 2024 will be held in-person at AADL's downtown branch. Flyers for each talk, including abstracts and speaker bios, will be sent in advance to members of our audience located in the greater Ann Arbor area.

Performance:Joan Osborne & Joshua Radin
2024-10-07 20:00 | Off Campus Location
Since she broke through 25 years ago with the multi-platinum Relish and its touchstone mega-smash “One of Us,” seven-time Grammy nominee Joan Osborne has never played it safe. Osborne has followed her restless musical heart, exploring a diverse range of genres: pop rock, soul, R&B, blues, roots rock, gospel, funk, and country. She comes to The Ark with a new album, Nobody Owns You.

Joshua Radin emerged in 2004 as an empathetic and engaging troubadour. He’s tallied north of 1 billion streams, moved 1 million-plus albums worldwide, and scored a gold certification for the single “I’d Rather Be With You.” In addition to multiple showstopping appearances on Ellen (who also enlisted him to perform at her wedding) and Today Show, and performances on The Tonight Show, Jimmy Kimmel LIVE!, and Conan, he contributed “Brand New Day” to a commercial in support of the troops at the request of First Ladies Michelle Obama and Dr. Jill Biden. Not to mention, he’s a staunch philanthropist who supports Little Kids Rock and North Shore Animal League America (NSALA), among others.

The act of embroidering and weaving designs onto cloth is deeply rooted in Ukrainian traditions. Embellished clothing (sorochky), ritual cloths (rushnyky), and household textiles accompany a person from birth until death, punctuating important life events in between. A variety of embroidery patterns are used throughout Ukraine; some stitches are universally known, while others are region-specific. Ukrainian embroidered clothing is now officially celebrated with an annual Vyshyvanka Day observed throughout the world in May.

The embroideries and textiles exhibited are from the private collections of Arnie Klein, Solomia Soroka, Katerina Sirinyok-Dolgaryova, and from the Ukrainian American Archives & Museum located in Hamtramck, Michigan.

The exhibit opens on September 5, 2024, in 1010 Weiser Hall, 500 Church Street, Ann Arbor. Contact weisercenter@umich.edu to schedule a viewing.

Exhibition:Guardians: Spirits of Protection
2024-10-08 09:00 - 16:30, 2024-10-09 09:00 - 16:30 | East Quadrangle - RC Art Gallery
This fall, the Residential College Art Gallery proudly presents Guardians: Spirits of Protection, an exhibition of evocative figurative sculptures by renowned artist Ann Savageau. The exhibition will be on display from August 26 to November 2, 2024.

We invite the university community and the general public to explore this moving collection that delves into themes of loss, grief, healing, and protection. The seventeen life-size figures, crafted from found objects and beach flotsam, are a poignant response to the tragedies in Savageau’s life, including the loss of her three children. Through this deeply personal and powerful work, Savageau reimagines discarded materials as symbols of new life and resilience, reflecting the healing power of art.

Ann Savageau will be in residence in Ann Arbor and the Residential College from September 16-20 and October 20-25, 2024. During her stay, you are warmly invited to join us for a special artist reception on October 23, from 4:30 to 6:00 pm in the Gallery. Prior to the reception, there will be an artist's talk in the Keene Theater at 3:30 pm, where Savageau will share insights into her creative process and the inspiration behind Guardians.

Ann Savageau, a former Studio Art instructor at the Residential College from 1978 to 2002, is not only an artist but also an activist and educator. Her contributions to the Prison Creative Arts Project, where she taught a weekly art workshop at Jackson Prison for four years, showcase her commitment to using art as a tool for social change.

Don't miss this opportunity to witness the transformative impact of Savageau's work and engage with her during her residency. We look forward to seeing you at the RC Art Gallery.

Exhibition:Mrs. Dalloway and WWI: Home Front and War Front
2024-10-08 09:00 - 20:00, 2024-10-09 09:00 - 20:00 | Hatcher Graduate Library - Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room, 1st Floor
This exhibit explores the characters of Mrs. Dalloway through the lens of WWI and its aftershocks. It looks at those who fought in the trenches and those who watched from afar.

[The exhibit includes references to suicide and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, which might be distressing for some visitors. Viewer discretion is advised.]

While all of the action in Virginia Woolf’s modernist masterpiece takes place on a single day, as preparations are made for Clarissa Dalloway’s evening party, Woolf’s stream of consciousness writing takes us in the characters’ minds all the way from English drawing rooms to colonial India to the trenches of World War I.

Exhibition:Steve Glazer Art Exhibition
2024-10-08 09:00 - 17:00, 2024-10-09 09:00 - 17:00 | North Campus Research Complex Building 18 - Rotunda Gallery
Steve Glazer earned his BFA in art with a concentration in ceramics from Eastern Michigan University, a master’s degree in art from Central Michigan University, and MFA in fine arts and ceramics from Indiana State University. Since 2004, Glazer has been lead faculty and head of ceramics at Henry Ford College, and former faculty of Concord College (WV) and North Dakota State University. His artwork has been exhibited throughout the country.

Throughout his adult life the art of Steve Glazer has been done as a response to his environment. From a series of shadow box type pieces containing life like ceramic fish while teaching at a Catholic woman’s college, to building 8’ tall ceramic “skyscrapers” that barely fit into the display spaces while teaching in North Dakota, where no skyscrapers exist, and then creating installations commenting on living in Appalachia while teaching in southern West Virginia. After returning home to Detroit, Glazer began his griot series, the “Motor City Griot Society” masks, the faces of the superheroes that will save Detroit, and more recently the “Motor City Griot Patrol” creatures that will protect the city of Detroit.

Exhibition:Susan Moran Exhibition
2024-10-08 09:00 - 17:00, 2024-10-09 09:00 - 17:00 | North Campus Research Complex Building 18 - Rotunda Gallery
Susan Moran’s work is inspired by the natural world and our place in it. She collects and arranges images, builds and subtracts, and uses processes that suit the concepts and gives the pieces a reason for existing as textiles. Simultaneously she strives to make the medium influence the outcome in such a way that cloth and image meld together. Moran uses silkscreen, shibori, and stitching to embed images from her daily walks into the fabric. it's important that the work builds slowly, involving meditative processes that connect her to the cloth and the source of the design.

Gallery hours: Monday-Friday, 9 am to 5pm or by appointment serrag@med.umich.edu

Exhibition:The Butch Closet
2024-10-08 09:00 - 17:00, 2024-10-09 09:00 - 17:00 | Thayer Academic Building - Institute for the Humanities Gallery
In the multi-media installation *The Butch Closet*, artist Phranc illustrates her life stories as a queer artist, Jewish lesbian folk singer, and "cardboard cobbler." By meticulously re-creating personal objects and pieces of clothing out of paper, cardboard, thread, and paint, she revisits her own history, contextualizing her experiences as an iconic performer, and maker, constructing, reconstructing, and re-imagining her image against a larger historical context of second-wave feminism and queer activism. The institute's presentation of *The Butch Closet* is the second iteration of the project, offering a more intimate and immersive engagement with Phranc's sculptural works. As part of the installation, visitors can peer into a closet built in the center of the gallery designed by the artist. Conceptually, the space shifts from inside to outside, public and private, and explores themes of visibility and that which remains inaccessible or unseen.

About the artist:
Phranc is a jewish lesbian folksinger and queer artist who uses song, painting and sculpture to champion personal identities and illustrate the struggle, survival, and victory of the queer individual. An internationally acclaimed and award winning performer. Phranc’s work integrates humor and a butch lesbian aesthetic. Her current project, Phranc Talk: The Butch Closet, is a multi-media memoir that spans her 40-year career. Phranc lives and works in Santa Monica, California and Vancouver, British Columbia.

*Phranc is the 2024 Woodhead Visiting Artist at the Institute for the Humanities.*

Exhibition:A Gathering
2024-10-08 11:00 - 17:00, 2024-10-09 11:00 - 17:00 | Museum of Art - Lizzie and Jonathan Tisch Apse
Welcome. Make Yourself At Home.

A Gathering brings together the newest works of art to enter UMMA’s collection — many on display here for the first time.

As a free, public museum, UMMA staff takes care of art for the benefit of the community and society at large. The works on view in this exhibition, all brought into the Museum between 2019 and the present, shows how institutions like UMMA are becoming more permeable to societal challenges, and more nimble in responding to them in service to all in their communities. In this exhibition you will find works that reflect on how global migrations, race, gender, and ecological change shape the way we engage with the world and inform our visions for the future.

This collection of artistic engagements with issues give us tools to envision who we want to be as individuals, as a museum, and as a society, connected to one another across space and experience.

So gather here to take in these latest works of art brought here for you. Gather here to be engulfed in their forms and meanings, to discuss their takes, to learn, to disagree. Gather to relax, make a friend, drink a coffee, finish the daily Wordle. Gather to feel full, to be moved and inspired by all the possible imaginations of what is yet to come.

Curated by Félix Zamora Gómez Irving Stenn, Jr. Fellow in Public Humanities & Museum Pedagogy

Lead support for this exhibition is provided by Lizzie and Jonathan Tisch, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment, and the University of Michigan Office of the Provost.

Exhibition:Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism
2024-10-08 11:00 - 17:00, 2024-10-09 11:00 - 17:00 | Museum of Art - European and American Decorative Art
Organized as a response to the Museum’s recent acquisition of Titus Kaphar’s Flay (James Madison), this upcoming reinstallation of one of our most prominent gallery spaces forces us to grapple with our collection of European and American art, 1650-1850.

In recent times, growing public awareness of the continued reverberations of the legacy of slavery and colonization has challenged museums to examine the uncomfortable histories contained in our collections, and challenged the public to probe the choices we make about those stories. Choices about which artists you see in our galleries, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.

Pieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.

In this online exhibition, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery, which will open in early 2021, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history.

By challenging our own practice, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles, and fails to settle for, simple narratives.

“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed, so ornate, so planned, they call attention to themselves; arrest us with intentionality and purpose, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.”

— Toni Morrison

Workshop / Seminar:Earnings Volatility
2024-10-08 11:30 - 13:00
We analyze monthly earnings volatility using administrative payroll data. While it is well-documented that wages are largely stable, we find that this wage stability does not translate into earnings stability for most U.S. workers. Even within stable employment relationships, and even when wages are constant, many workers nevertheless face substantial monthly earnings volatility. The standard deviation of monthly earnings changes is 28%, while the standard deviation of base wage changes is only 2%. There is substantial heterogeneity in this volatility, with much higher volatility for hourly workers than for salaried workers. This degree of volatility is far higher than what is implied by benchmark models of earnings processes which are calibrated to previously-available annual data and used as inputs for leading macro models. To understand the welfare consequences of pay volatility, we estimate the amenity value of volatility using worker quits in a model of a frictional labor market. We find that workers have a high willingness to pay to reduce earnings volatility. Overall, this analysis shows that high-frequency labor market shocks are an important source of risk and fragility which has been masked by past studies of annual earnings.

Presentation:How to Tell if You're Disabled: A Hollywood Checklist
2024-10-08 11:30 - 13:30 | North Quad - Space 2435

Lecture / Discussion:EEB Tuesday Seminar Series - Ecophylogenetic and geographic constraints on species formation and cohesion in squamate reptiles
2024-10-08 12:00 - 13:00 | Biological Sciences Building - 1010
This event is part of our ongoing Tuesday Seminar Series.

About this seminar: The ubiquity of species imbalance across the Tree of Life potentially reflects, at least in part, heterogeneity in macroevolutionary rates of speciation and extinction. However, how and why speciation rates vary within and between clades and biogeographic regions remains an open question. Many studies have tested for links between putative microevolutionary (subspecific) controls and macroevolutionary (superspecific) phenomena (e.g., speciation rates), but due to the noisiness of these biological data, have been unable to reach any consensus on speciation rate-limiting controls. In particular, variability in the taxonomic resolution of tip-level units—including over- and under-splitting—can potentially influence estimated rates of speciation, the consequences of which have not been rigorously explored. Given that geographic isolation provides only ambiguous evidence for reproductive isolation, the taxonomic treatment of allopatric forms has been inconsistent across clades, thus raising questions as to the comparability of our phylogenetic tip-level units. Using sympatry among close relatives as a heuristic for speciation completion, I will assess the impact of collapsing allopatric sibling species on macroevolutionary speciation rates in scaled reptiles (Order Squamata). I will then briefly describe my plans to investigate the ecophylogenetic limits to sympatry among squamates by modeling clade-level transitions from allopatry. I will also discuss leveraging higher-resolution ecological and distribution data from one North American snake tribe (Colubridae: Natricinae: Thamnophiini) to interrogate the robustness of these results. Finally, I propose to characterize the range-wide genomic structure of several species groups within Thamnophiini to explore extrinsic and intrinsic factors modulating species cohesion across heterogeneous environments and spatial scales.

Lecture / Discussion:LRCCS Noon Lecture Series | Conversation Networks and Elite Conflict during China’s Reform Era
2024-10-08 12:00 - 13:00 | Weiser Hall - Room 455
This event will be in-person only.

In this talk, Professor Zhang explores the micro-foundations of elite politics by focusing on changes in network structures that emerge from informal conversations. Empirically, he offers a “situational conflict” explanation to the periodic elite conflict during China’s reform era (1977–1992), emphasizing the unexpected power collision that catalyzed the violent crackdown on the Tiananmen movement in 1989. He will also demonstrate why integrating micro-sociological theories and network analysis can help us unpack the black box of elite politics and its role in macro-historical change.

Yang Zhang is Associate Professor in the School of International Service at American University. A sociologist by training, Dr. Zhang's research interests include historical and political sociology, elite and contentious politics, political economy, knowledge, theory, and China Studies, broadly defined. He has published in American Journal of Sociology, Theory and Society, Journal of Historical Sociology, and Mobilization, among other outlets. His work has received Distinguished Contribution to Scholarship Article Award (Honorable Mention) from the Collective Behavior and Social Movements Section and the Charles Tilly Article Award from Comparative-Historical Sociology Section, both from American Sociological Association.

If there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you, please contact us at chinese.studies@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

Lecture / Discussion:Hear, Here: Humanities Up Close
2024-10-08 12:30 - 13:30 | Thayer Academic Building - Institute for the Humanities Osterman Common Room, #1022
With the “Hear, Here” series, we aim to facilitate conversations around new research in the humanities. Faculty fellows at the Institute for the Humanities will discuss a part of their current project in a short talk followed by a Q & A session.

About this talk: “Small-town America” has become shorthand for a largely white place, not only in terms of demographics but also related to politics, culture, and religion. This imagining of small towns as white emerged in the 1920s. Focusing on three small towns, this talk shows how stories about the past, community theatrical productions, and everyday conversations about race came to shape the racial identity of small-town America, a place that was never as white as imagined.

Stephen Berrey is a 2024-25 Helmut F. Stern Faculty Fellow at the Institute for the Humanities and Associate Professor of American Culture and History.

Workshop / Seminar:Activation of L-histidine biosynthesis as a new antibiotic strategy against Mycobacterium tuberculosis
2024-10-08 16:00 | Chemistry Dow Lab - 1640
The increasing prevalence of antimicrobial resistance is an important challenge that warrants new approaches to antibiotic development. Currently, all antibiotics inhibit biological processes. To explore whether activation of a biochemical pathway can elicit bactericidal effects we engineered variants of Mycobacterium tuberculosis ATP-phosphoribosyltransferase (ATP-PRT) that are resistant to allosteric inhibition by L-histidine, leading to supraphysiological activation of ATP-PRT and L-histidine overproduction. Upregulation of L-histidine biosynthesis significantly reduces the growth of M. tuberculosis in culture and causes a loss of fitness owing to nutrient and energy depletion. Moreover, the expression of allosteric variants in M. tuberculosis significantly reduced infections in human macrophages and in a mouse model of infection. Thus, metabolic activation is a new bactericidal mechanism that could be applied to antibiotic discovery more generally.

Inequality has long been theorized to be a scourge on the vitality of democratic societies. Beyond rising levels of economic inequalities recently experienced by many countries, there exist many deep-rooted political and social inequalities that may undermine democratic politics or aid political entrepreneurs leading undemocratic movements to capitalize upon. This roundtable introduces a recently edited volume, Unequal Democracies, that helps untangle the complex relationship between contemporary democracies and inequality along a variety of economic, political, and social dimensions.

Workshop / Seminar:CM-AMO Seminar |Ultrafast nano-imaging: Probing quantum dynamics in space and time
2024-10-08 16:00 - 17:00 | West Hall - 340
Understanding and ultimately controlling the properties of quantum materials and their coupled degrees of freedom will require counteracting the effects of dissipation and dephasing. This necessitates imaging the elementary excitations on their natural time and length scales. To achieve this goal, we developed scanning probe microscopies with ultrafast and shaped laser pulses for multiscale coherent spatio-temporal optical nano-imaging. In corresponding ultrafast movies, we resolve the fundamental quantum dynamics down to the few-femtosecond regime with nanometer spatial resolution.

Specifically, in 2D materials and their heterostructures, the emergent electronic, spin, and other quantum properties are controlled by the underlying interlayer coupling and associated charge and energy transfer dynamics. These processes are sensitive to interlayer distance and crystallographic orientation, which are in turn affected by defects, grain boundaries, and other nanoscale heterogeneities. In this talk, I will present the use of adiabatic plasmonic nanofocused four-wave mixing (FWM) [1] to image the coherent electron dynamics in monolayer WSe2 resolving nanoscale heterogeneities in dephasing ranging from T2 < 5 fs to T2 > 60 fs on length scales of 50-100 nm [2]. Further, in combination with Purcell-enhanced nano-cavity clock spectroscopy [3] in WSe2/graphene heterostructures we identify interlayer energy transfer dynamics at times scales of 350 fs [4]. Beyond the fundamental understanding to the competition between intrinsic and extrinsic effects on excitation lifetimes and coherence, we discover a new regime of nonlinear nano-optics at the interplay of spatial coherence and disorder-induced scattering.

Lecture / Discussion:DAAS Africa Workshop: “Delivery as Dispossession: Land Occupation and Eviction in the Postapartheid City.”
2024-10-08 16:00 - 18:00 | Haven Hall - 4701 Haven Hall (DAAS Conference Room)
Abstract:

My recent book Delivery as Dispossession explains why nearly 30 years after the end of apartheid, the South African government continues to evict squatters from urban land. It argues that housing officials view occupations as threats to the government’s housing delivery program, which, they insist, requires order and state control. New occupations are therefore stigmatized as “disorderly” threats, and government actors represent their removal as a precondition for access to housing. Drawing on a decade of sustained ethnographic fieldwork in two such occupations in Cape Town, this study explains why one was evicted, whereas the other was ultimately tolerated, answering a central question in urban studies: how do governments decide when to evict, and conversely, when to tolerate? These decisions are not made in a vacuum but instead require an analysis that expands what we typically call “the state.” This book argues that the state does not simply “see” occupations, as if they were a feature of the natural landscape. Rather, occupiers collectively project themselves to government actors, affecting how they are seen. But residents are not only seen; they also see, which shapes how they organize themselves. When residents see the state as an antagonist, they tend to unify under a single leadership; but when they see it as a potential ally, they often remain atomized as if they were individual customers. The unity in the former case projects an orderly population, less likely to be evicted; but the fragmentation in the latter case projects a disorderly mass, serving to legitimate eviction rulings.

Zachary Levenson is an Assistant Professor of Sociology at Florida International University and a Senior Research Associate in Sociology at the University of Johannesburg. He is the author of Delivery as Dispossession: Land Occupation and Eviction in the Postapartheid City (Oxford University Press, 2022) and the co-editor of The South African African Tradition of Racial Capitalism (Routledge, 2024). He is currently working on his next book, which considers political diversity within the anti-apartheid movement.

Lecture / Discussion:The Greek-Turkish Population Exchange of 1923 as an Ambiguous Paradigm between Peace and Violence
2024-10-08 16:00 - 18:00 | Michigan League - Hussey Room
A Foundation for Modern Greek Studies Visiting Scholar Lecture

The Greek-Turkish exchange of populations is situated in the political context of the simultaneous reconstruction of the two neighboring countries after the war of 1919-1922 and their consolidation as nation-states. In Lausanne, land and population constituted the risk factor between all involved parties. The Convention of Lausanne (30 January 1923) regulated the fate of approximately two million people in a non-reversible and compulsory way. The bilateral agreement, of ambiguous compliance with international law, imposed ethnic unmixing as an acceptable practice, shaping the idea of “homeland” at the borderlines of peace and war.

Konstantinos Tsitselikis is a Professor of Human Rights and International Organizations at the University of Macedonia (Thessaloniki, Greece). Dean of the School of Economic and Regional Studies (2018-2023). Author of a series of books, studies, and articles on human rights, minorities, and refugee and migrant rights.

Lecture / Discussion:Undergraduate Seminar: Constructing Rings of Fractions
2024-10-08 16:00 - 17:00 | 1100 North University Building - 1507
When rigorously working with rational numbers, we define them as equivalence classes of pairs of integers. A similar construction works to give us an analogous "field of fractions" for arbitrary integral domains. We can further generalize this concept to any ring, leading us to the idea of localization. We will go through this construction together, and examine how we can utilize this field of fractions to learn more about our original ring.

During elections, a lot of attention is focused on races for the federal government. Coverage of presidential candidates and competitive Senate and Congressional races will dominate news coverage relating to the election. Less attention will be paid to the numerous elected offices at the state and local levels, and it can often be more difficult to find information about candidates running for these offices. However, these offices are important and often have more of an impact on communities than federal offices.

Join Turn Up Turnout for a nonpartisan, educational presentation on the importance of State and Local Government. FREE FOOD provided.

Exhibition:Kelly Church & Cherish Parrish: In Our Words, An Intergenerational Dialogue
2024-10-09 11:00 - 17:00 | Off Campus Location
Exhibition Dates: September 13 – December 7, 2024Opening Reception: September 19, 2024

Kelly Church & Cherish Parrish: In Our Words, An Intergenerational Dialogue is a major exhibition that centers the subjectivities of two contemporary Indigenous artists whose practices have sustained and bolstered the relevance of the age-old Anishinaabe practice of black ash basket-making in the 21st century. The exhibition highlights the significance of community-based conversations between mother and daughter, and their ongoing conversations with elders (ancestors), young folx, and future generations as vital aspects of their methodology. These conversations often take place during basket gatherings - where community members come together and share stories and teachings that can encompass Anishinaabe creation stories, as well as those of survivance and resilience, to inform the materiality and liveness of their work. The curatorial and interpretive framework of this exhibition contends that the deeply situated and temporal works by Church (Stamps, BFA 1998) and Parrish (LSA, BA 2020) are repositories for Anishinaabe ways of knowing, thinking, and making that contribute to the complexity of American art and its histories. The expansive and bold practices of Church and Parrish affirm the sovereignty of Anishinaabe lifeways and the importance of including Indigenous narratives that have systematically been left out. Thus, the thematic survey of their work will explore the under-examined themes that inform their work such as Native women’s labor as carriers of culture and knowledge-keepers, the legacy of boarding schools and ancestors who walked on, the treaties in Michigan and the long-overlooked legacy of Anishinaabe intellectual life and their relevance today. Just like the practice of weaving and interlacing distinct strips of black ash to create one whole, Church and Parrish will address the diverse and interconnected themes with approximately 30-35 works, including 15-17 new works. Together, the exhibition offers an incisive critique of the colonial, racist paradigm of systemic erasure and assimilation that continues to this day, with the ongoing crises of missing and murdered Indigenous women, culture wars, and climate change that threaten Indigenous ways of living, sustenance, and making.
Curated by Srimoyee Mitra with Curatorial Assistant Zoi Crampton.

No need to bring a resume.Look beyond the rankings and visit with familiar and not-so- familiar schools… multiple perspectives are always helpful and you may find new possibilities.NoteAs you consider opportunities offered at career fairs: External organizations are not programs and activities of the University of Michigan and are included only because they may be of interest to members of the University community.

Exhibition:Michelle Hinojosa: Logcabins
2024-10-09 11:02 - 17:00 | Off Campus Location
Stamps Gallery commissioned Michelle Hinojosa (MFA, 2023) to reimagine the pillars on Division Street that flank the Gallery. Hinojosa has created log cabin quilts to adorn the columns in front of Stamps Gallery. The log cabin quilts traditionally represent the warm hearth at the center of a home. This installation reflects on the interplay between home, placemaking, labor, and intergenerational memories of migration. Rather than quilting cotton designed to softly embrace the body, these quilts are sewn from outdoor grade, UV-resistant polyester. The quilt is an ode to Hinojosa’s grandmother who illegally crossed the US/Mexico border holding her babies and her quilts. As she and her family drove across the United States to work in the fields of the Salinas Valley, the quilts offered a safe space for her and her family. Hinojosa celebrates their resilience to her grandmother and elders while also drawing attention to precarity and violence experienced by refugees and migrants crossing the US-Mexico border in our present today.
Artist’s bio:
Michelle Inez Hinojosa is an artist, educator, and researcher whose work is informed by Indigenous and Latine/x/a/o studies. Born and raised in Texas, she earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in both drawing and painting and art education with a minor in art history at the University of North Texas. She holds a Master of Fine Arts from the University of Michigan. She works with quilting, bead weaving, embroidery, jewelry, transparent film installations, painting, ceramics, and sculpture to honor and explore the history of migration in her family and humanize the current discourse around migration still occurring at the southern border. Alongside her artwork she maintains a writing practice to re-story, re-make, and re-claim the often subordinated narratives of Latinx, Chicanx, Mexican, and Texican peoples.

Recently, Hinojosa was named an inaugural Creative Careers Artist in Residence at the University of Michigan, she has also attended residencies at Mildred's Lane (Pennsylvania), Anderson Ranch Art Center (Aspen, CO) and The Cedars Union (Dallas, TX).

Workshop / Seminar:Panel Study of Income Dynamics & Health and Retirement Study Seminar Series: Sharing the caring? Dynamic interaction between siblings in the provision of care to parents
2024-10-09 12:00 - 13:00 | Off Campus Location
I analyze strategic interaction between adult siblings in the provision of care to an elderly parent by estimating a dynamic discrete-choice game in which siblings make location, work and care choices. I find that the opportunity for strategic play exacerbates gender differences in caring responsibilities as sons in particular strategically shirk providing care as they believe their sibling is relatively likely to provide care in their absence. Counterfactual experiments show that if siblings instead took care, location and work choices independently then the gender care gap would be around 14% smaller. Also, I find that unobserved preference differences between sons and daughters are far more important in driving the gender care gap than observed differences in wages.

Workshop / Seminar:Working and Saving Informally: The Link between Labor Market Informality and Financial Exclusion.
2024-10-09 14:30 - 15:50 | Lorch Hall - 201
The high level of informality and the low level of savings observed in developing countries are fundamentally linked because informal workers have limited access to formal financial institutions. We study this link by developing and estimating a labor market model where workers can be employed both formally and informally and agents can save through both formal and informal financial institutions. We estimate the model on nationally representative data for Colombia and use the estimated model to simulate counterfactual experiments. Results show that reaching full financial inclusion of informal workers would increase both saving and borrowing, leading to doubling the proportion of assets held in formal financial institutions by informal employee workers. As a byproduct, asset inequality would decrease by about 20%.

Presentation:2024 Helmut W. Baer Lecture | When a Symmetry Breaks
2024-10-09 15:00 - 16:00 | West Hall - 340
This will be a hybrid event. Livestream Link: https://youtu.be/gYRV6uM1fOU

What is common among a magnet, a flounder, a rack of laundry, your heart on the left of your body, and the Higgs boson? The concept of spontaneous symmetry breaking is ubiquitous among many natural phenomena. I'll describe the basic concept and its applications. In particular, the original concepts from Anderson, Nambu, Goldstone, and Higgs do not quite work in many systems that include a magnet on your fridge. I generalize the concept so that it is applicable to all known natural phenomena around us.

Please join us for a reception outside of 340 West Hall from 2:00-3:00 pm prior to the lecture.

Workshop / Seminar:Learning Seminar in Algebraic Combinatorics: Bergman fans and their subdivisions
2024-10-09 15:00 - 16:00 | East Hall - 4088
In this talk we first introduce another way of constructing new matroids from a given one M, by minimizing the linear functional w cdot x over x in the matroid polytope of M, for a fixed w in R^n. We then use this to define the Bergman fan of a given matroid, which are spaces of weights w whose corresponding matroids do not contain loops. To understand the topology of the Bergman fan, we introduce a combinatorial gadget called phylogenetic trees which can be used to parametrize the Bergman fan, and give a nice subdivision of it.

Lecture / Discussion:DCMB / CCMB Weekly Seminar
2024-10-09 16:00 - 17:00 | Palmer Commons - Forum Hall
Abstract:
Ensuring the reliability and accuracy of single-cell data analysis is critical, particularly in visualizing complex biological structures and addressing data sparsity. This talk introduces two novel statistical methods—scDEED and mcRigor—that leverage permutation-based techniques to enhance the rigor of these analyses.

scDEED ([Xia et al., 2024, Nature Communications](https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-024-45891-y)) addresses the challenge of evaluating the reliability of two-dimensional (2D) embeddings produced by visualization methods like t-SNE and UMAP, which are commonly used to visualize cell clusters. These methods, however, can sometimes misrepresent data structure, leading to erroneous interpretations. scDEED calculates a reliability score for each cell embedding, comparing the consistency between a cell's neighbors in the 2D embedding space and its pre-embedding neighbors. Cells with low reliability scores are flagged as dubious, while those with high scores are deemed trustworthy. Additionally, scDEED provides guidance for optimizing t-SNE and UMAP hyperparameters by minimizing the number of dubious embeddings, significantly improving visualization reliability across multiple datasets.

mcRigor focuses on enhancing metacell partitioning in single-cell RNA-seq and ATAC-seq data analysis, a common strategy to address data sparsity by aggregating similar single cells into metacells. Existing algorithms often fail to verify metacell homogeneity, risking bias and spurious findings. mcRigor introduces a feature-correlation-based statistic to measure heterogeneity within a metacell, identifying dubious metacells composed of heterogeneous single cells. By optimizing metacell partitioning algorithm hyperparameters, mcRigor enhances the reliability of downstream analyses. Moreover, mcRigor allows for benchmarking and selecting the most suitable partitioning algorithm for a dataset, ensuring more robust discoveries.

scDEED and mcRigor demonstrate the power of permutation-based approaches in refining single-cell data analysis, providing researchers with tools to achieve more accurate and reproducible insights into complex cellular processes.

Lecture / Discussion:Former Governors John Kasich and Steve Bullock on Democracy and Civic Discourse
2024-10-09 16:00 - 17:30 | Weill Hall (Ford School) - Annenberg Auditorium
Two former governors, one Republican and one Democrat, considered moderates in their respective parties, discuss ways in which to have civil and civic discourse in an era of political divisiveness.

Speaker bios:

John Kasich served as the 69th Governor of Ohio (2011-2019). He touts his accomplishments as "leading the Ohio Comeback, restoring Ohio’s fiscal stability, diversifying the state’s economy with more than 500,000 new private-sector jobs, expanding health care coverage for low-income Ohioans, protecting vulnerable residents, and championing a number of reforms to protect the environment." Kasich ran for President during the 2016 GOP primary. He was the last candidate to leave the race and finished third in the total delegate count. His message focused on unifying Americans rather than dividing them, championing the great potential of our citizens to make positive impacts in their own communities, a strong national defense and the importance of our international alliances. He previously served in Congress (1982-2000), where he was Chairman of the House Budget Committee and also served for 18 years on the Armed Services Committee.

Steve Bullock was elected Montana’s 24th Governor, serving from 2013-2020. He worked with a Republican-majority legislature to improve access to health care, kick dark money out of state elections, make record investments in education, protect access to public lands, invest in infrastructure, and strengthen Montana’s economy. Bullock brought diverse interests together to address challenging issues, from sage grouse and forest management to the Main Street Montana Project. By executive action, he led the nation in preserving net neutrality and combating dark money. Nationally, Bullock was elected Chair of the National Governors Association, Western Governors Association and Democratic Governors Association. Bullock served as Montana’s attorney general from 2009-2013. As attorney general, Bullock defended Montana’s hundred-year ban on corporate campaign spending, gaining national prominence for leading the challenge to the Supreme Court’s Citizens United decision.

Lecture / Discussion:The Invented Library of an Invented Disciple: Reimagining the “Johannine” Literature
2024-10-09 16:00 - 18:00 | Michigan Union - Pond Room
The Christian Bible contains four texts attributed to a disciple of Jesus named “John”: the Gospel of John and the letters of 1 John, 2 John, and 3 John. But what do we know about the origins of these texts? Who really wrote them?

This presentation argues that these works are a chain of pseudepigrapha—falsely authored works—written by multiple pens over several decades.

The author of the Gospel invented a disciple of Jesus to serve as the narrator of his text; the authors of the letters, in turn, co-opted this character, fleshing out so many afterlives for him. This presentation traces this arc, showing how a single act of disguised authorship inspired a new literary tradition and shaped twenty centuries of Christian culture.

Hugo Méndez is an Associate Professor of Religious Studies at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, where he teaches New Testament and early Christianity. He is the author of *The Cult of Stephen in Jerusalem: Inventing a Patron Martyr* (Oxford University Press, 2022) and co-author of *The New Testament: A Historical Introduction to the Early Christian Writings*, 8th ed. (Oxford, 2024).

Lecture / Discussion:The Joseph and Sally Handleman Lecture Series presents Jessica Watson
2024-10-09 16:00 - 18:00 | Ross School of Business - Tauber Colloquium
Celebrating Milestones: A Voyage Around the World

On Wednesday, Oct. 9, please join Sharon F. Matusik, Edward J. Frey Dean of Business, for a conversation with Jessica Watson, the youngest person to sail solo, nonstop, and unassisted around the world. At age 16, Watson spent 210 days at sea navigating some of the world’s most challenging stretches of ocean. Watson’s journey around the world is a testament to resilience. Amid adversity, she recognized the value of appreciating small victories and acknowledging progress at every step. Her perseverance and grit demonstrate that we all have the power to live our dreams — no matter how small or big they are.

While sailing around the world, Watson filmed a documentary about her experience, which was later narrated by Sir Richard Branson. Within three months of her return to Australia, she authored a book titled True Spirit, which told the story of her voyage. In February of 2024, a film adaptation of her book was released on Netflix and had over 30 million viewing hours in the first 10 days following its release. Now aged 30, Watson has completed an MBA, authored a second book, and currently works as a management consultant within Deloitte’s Human Capital Practice.

Film Screening:ASC Film Screening and Discussion. *Brief Tender Light*
2024-10-09 17:00 - 20:00 | Hatcher Graduate Library - Gallery Event Space
Join the International Center, African Studies Center, and U-M Library for a thought-provoking film screening and discussion with Ukrainian-born Ghanaian filmmaker Arthur Musah.

Brief Tender Light (2023) is a documentary by Ukrainian-born Ghanaian filmmaker Arthur Musah '04, MNG '05 (Electrical Engineering & Computer Science). The film tells the story of four African MIT undergraduates on their journeys to become engineers: Sante Nyambo '15 (Civil Engineering/Tanzania), Fidelis Chimombe '15 (Electrical Engineering & Computer Science/Zimbabwe), Billy Ndengeyingoma '15, MCP '17 (Civil Engineering and Urban Studies & Planning/Rwanda), and Philip Abel Adama '15 (Computer Science & Engineering/Nigeria).

--- Synopsis ---

A Ghanaian filmmaker follows four African undergraduates through MIT, America’s premier technological university and his alma mater. The students embark on their MIT education with individual ambitions – to engineer infrastructure in Tanzania; to secure a better life for family in Nigeria; to contribute to post-genocide reconstruction in Rwanda; to advance democracy in Zimbabwe. Their missions are distinct but fueled by a common goal: to become agents of positive change back home.

While their dreams are anchored in the societies they have left, their daily realities are defined by America – by the immediate challenges in their MIT classrooms and by the larger social issues confronting the world beyond those classrooms. Their new environment demands they adapt. Over an intimate, decade-long journey spanning two continents, students and filmmakers alike are forced to decide how much of America to absorb, how much of Africa to hold on to, and how to reconcile teenage ideals with the truths they discover about the world and themselves.
