SUMMARY:Exhibition:she was here\, once
DESCRIPTION:The mobility and displacement of the Black body\, from port to holding cell\, to ward and out\, is a history that is embedded in our communities socially\, culturally and geographically. Alluding to feelings of pain\, otherness\, power and triumph\, \"she was here\, once\" features work that illustrates a moment of remembrance and reflection on the women who have roamed these spaces before us.\n\nIn summer 2018\, artist Nastassja Swift organized a collaborative workshop and public performance in her home city of Richmond\, Virginia. Using a range of choreographed movement\, sound\, and solidarity\, eight Black women and girls\, wearing large needle felted wool masks\, traced the ancestral footprints of the arrival of the Black body in Richmond. The 3.5 mile walk began in Shockoe Bottom (the site of the importation of slaves into Richmond\, and one of the largest sources of slave trade in America) and concluded in the Jackson Ward neighborhood (one of the largest Black communities in Richmond).\n\nThe multi-layered piece has produced a short film\, mini documentary\, photography\, and performance masks\, on display in her solo exhibition\, \"she was here\, once\" in Lane Hall.\n\nLane Hall Gallery is open to the public weekdays from 8am - 4pm. Class visits are encouraged.\n\nAccessibility: Ramp and elevator access at the E. Washington Street entrance (by the loading dock). There are accessible restrooms on the south end of Lane Hall\, on each floor of the building. A gender neutral restroom is available on the first floor.\n\nContact Heidi Bennett\, IRWG Event Planner (heidiab@umich.edu) with questions about this exhibition.\n\nCosponsors: Department of Women's Studies\, Stamps School of Art & Design\, Department of English\, Art History\, Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies\, Center for the Education of Women+

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Universal Declaration of Human Rights: Linocuts by Meredith Stern
DESCRIPTION:On December 10\, 1948\, in the aftermath of the devastation of World War II\, the United Nations General Assembly adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights as a roadmap to guarantee the rights of every individual everywhere. The complete Declaration is comprised of a Preamble and 30 Articles. In honor of the 60th anniversary of this document\, we are exhibiting 14 Articles in the form of illustrated prints by Meredith Stern. These contemporary prints are intended both to make people aware of this rights roadmap and to show its urgent relevance in our contemporary political moment.\n\nMeredith Stern is an artist currently based in Providence\, RI\, and a member of the Justseeds Artists’ Cooperative\, a decentralized network of 30 artists committed to social\, environmental\, and political engagement. Stern created a total of 28 sets of these linocut prints in 2017\, of which one is held in the Joseph A. Labadie Collection in the Special Collections Research Center.

SUMMARY:Presentation:CCN Forum - Development Talks
DESCRIPTION:Tyler Adkins:\n\nTitle: \nRewards enhance multi-voxel decoding of lightly trained motor sequences\n\nAbstract: \nProspective rewards lead to improvements in motor skill performance via an unknown neural mechanism. We hypothesize that these reward-related behavioral improvements are mediated by reward-related enhancements in neural codes which represent upcoming actions. We measured the fidelity of action-related neural codes using machine learning classifiers which attempt to decode action identity from patterns of brain activity preceding actions. We found that prospective rewards had a positive linear effect on the fidelity of action-related neural codes in canonical preparatory motor regions. However\, this effect is only present for neural codes representing actions that were lightly trained—the codes for heavily trained actions were unaffected by prospective rewards. Future research should investigate this interaction between depth of training and reward. \n\n\nHyesue Jang\n\nTitle:  \nLosing Money and Motivation: Younger and older adults’ response to loss incentive\n\nAbstract:\nWould you be more likely to keep your New Year’s resolution if breaking it cost you $20? Loss-based incentives are common in everyday life (e.g.\, job/financial security\, health\, driving) especially for older adults. Many laboratory studies report that loss-based incentives do not affect the performance of older adults. This is often interpreted as an example of the age-related positivity effect described by Carstensen and colleagues. However\, the tasks used in many laboratory studies have constraints (e.g.\, fast-passed trials\, salient targets\, frequent responses) that keep attention focused on the task. This is very different from many real-life situations. Using a more open-ended\, low-salience task\, we found that loss incentives reduced performance and attention to the task in older adults (Lin et al.\, in revision). We suggested this might reflect disengagement in response to negative feedback. In this talk\, we examine the effects of loss incentive on a more traditionally-formatted task\, and also examine the effects on participants’ subjective reports of task engagement\, motivation\, and related variables.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Better Assemblies Through Geometric Frustration
DESCRIPTION:In hard materials\, geometric frustration (GF) is most often associated with the disruption of long-range order in the bulk and proliferation of defects in the ground state. Soft and self-assembled materials\, on the other hand\, are composed of intrinsically flexible building blocks held together deformable and non-covalent forces. As such\, soft assemblies systems are able to tolerate some measure of local misfit due to frustration\, allowing imperfect order to extend over at least some\nfinite range.\n\nThis talk will overview an emerging paradigm for self-organized soft materials\, geometrically-frustrated assemblies (GFAs)\, where interactions between self-assembling elements (e.g. particles\, macromolecules\, proteins) favor local packing motifs that are incompatible with uniform global order in the assembly. This classification applies to a broad range of material assemblies including self-twisting\nprotein filament bundles\, amyloid fibers\, chiral smectics and membranes\, particle-coated droplets\, curved protein shells and phase-separated lipid vesicles. In assemblies\, GF leads to a host of anomalous structural and thermodynamic\nproperties\, including heterogeneous and internally-stressed equilibrium structures\, self-limiting assembly and topological defects in the equilibrium assembly structures.\n\nI will highlight the some of the basic principles and common outcomes of GF in soft matter assemblies\, as well as\, outstanding questions not yet addressed about the unique properties and behaviors of this broad class of systems. Finally\, I will describe opportunities and challenges to exploit the scale-dependent thermodynamics of GFA to engineer new classes of intentionally ill-fitting assemblies that target equilibrium architectures with well-defined dimensions on length scales that extend far beyond the size of the building blocks or their interactions.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Dark Matter Production: Finite Temperature Effects in the Early Universe
DESCRIPTION:In the early universe\, the Standard Model particles formed a hot thermal bath.  We highlight the importance of finite temperature corrections in these conditions on various production mechanisms of dark matter\, primarily through temperature dependent masses and scalar vevs.  We first consider a variation on standard freeze-out\, where kinematic thresholds determine the relic abundance.  We then consider a freeze-in model where the production rate is dramatically increased when a kinematic threshold opens.  Finally\, we present a qualitatively new production mechanism for dark matter\, where dark matter decay is allowed for a limited amount of time just before the electroweak phase transition.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Towards Energy Justice: Exploring the Production and Persistence of Residential Urban Energy Disparities
DESCRIPTION:U.S. government action at the intersection of energy and equity is typically driven by either geopolitical or economic crises that affect energy prices\, rather than by a comprehensive\, long-term approach to addressing disparities in energy access and affordability. With one in three U.S. households facing challenges in paying energy bills\, understanding residential energy disparities is key to achieving energy justice. This presentation introduces the energy justice framework and explores the production and persistence of disparities in urban residential energy dynamics\,\nfocused primarily on energy efficiency. The results of cases studies in Kansas City and Detroit demonstrate how spatial\, racial\, and socioeconomic disparities manifest in urban areas\, and how community-based approaches to increasing can help overcome barriers to energy justice.\n\nTony G. Reames is an assistant professor in the School for Environment and Sustainability\, Director of the Urban Energy Justice Lab\, and a Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health JPB Environmental Health Fellow. He has a BS in Civil Engineering\, a Masters in Engineering Management (MEM)\, and a PhD in Public Administration. He is also a licensed Professional Engineer.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:“Good Intentions: Is Art an Effective Means of Activism?” & Opening Reception
DESCRIPTION:Join us for light refreshments and conversation as artist David Opdyke\, journalist Lauren Sandler\, art historian Tara Ward\, and arts curator Amanda Krugliak explore the power\, or lack thereof\, of art to address politically urgent issues and the effectiveness of socially driven art.\n\nAbout \"Paved with Good Intentions\,\" David Opdyke's exhibition at the Institute for the Humanities through Feb. 26:\n\nIn keeping with artist David Opdyke’s previous work\, this site-specific installation serves as a critique of U.S. culture and politics. In an era of fake news and daily hyperbole\, Opdyke literally changes the picture by hand painting on 528 vintage postcards of well-known American landmarks and destinations. The postcards are assembled into a large mural--a vast gridded landscape beset by environmental chaos. Each card is placed to fit into the overall image\, and carefully modified with the gouache to show a realistically rendered piece of the overall turmoil.\n\nThe installation also features animated shorts and script-driven video\, which take place within the visual confines of one or more postcards. The animation is inspired\, in part\, by Terry Gilliam’s animation work on Monty Python’s \"Flying Circus\" and by the classical music sound effects in the Road Runner cartoons.\n\nAbout David Opdyke:\nDavid Opdyke is a draughtsman\, sculptor\, and animator known for his trenchant political send-ups of American culture. Born in Schenectady\, NY in 1969\, he graduated from the University of Cincinnati with a degree in painting and sculpture. His work is informed by the massive industrial and corporate restructuring he witnessed growing up\, namely the abandonment of the city center by manufacturing giants General Electric and ALCO. As GE shifted resources to neighboring Niskayuna\, the disparities became hard for Opdyke to ignore. Massive\, decaying factories\, an empty interstate loop\, and unemployment were downtown\; new streets\, expensive homes\, sushi and shopping malls were in the suburbs.\n\nFor 20 years Opdyke worked as a scenic painter and architectural model-maker. Ranging from intricate miniature constructions to room-sized installations\, his artwork explores globalization\, consumerism\, and civilization’s abusive relationship with the environment.\n\nThis project is supported by a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund.

SUMMARY:Meeting:AMAS and CMENAS Event. Islamophobia Working Group Meeting
DESCRIPTION:The Islamophobia Working Group (IWG) was assembled in January 2016 to address the national crisis of Islamophobia and its impact on our campus community. We -- a group of faculty\, staff\, and students -- have become actively involved in the University’s strategic plan for Diversity\, Equity\, and Inclusion and gained visibility across the university. For over two years\, the IWG has been run through the Arab and Muslim American Studies Program in American Culture\; starting in Fall 2018\, the IWG will be co-led by AMAS and CMENAS. \n    \nOur work is driven by issues brought to the group by any student\, staff\, or faculty member. The group strategizes as a collective to figure out the best approach to a given issue. Thus\, if you encounter a pertinent issue\, we want to know about it and we welcome your participation in the group. \n    \nIf you would like to join our email list or come to a meeting\, please contact Professor Samer Ali (samerali@umich.edu)\, or IWG student coordinator\, Silan Fadlallah (silanf@umich.edu). \n\nCosponsors: American Culture\; Arab Muslim & American Studies\; Islamic Studies Program\; Office of Multiethnic Student Affairs\; Muslim Students' Association\; Arab Students' Association\; International Institute\n\n---\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to us at least 2 weeks in advance of this event. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange. Contact: Silan Fadlallah (silanf@umich.edu)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:NERS Colloquium:  Jeff Harper\, X-Energy
DESCRIPTION:Title: Generation IV Nuclear Reactors: \"Liángjī\" for Global Nuclear X-energy: A Model for Nuclear Innovation\n\nAbstract: Western proverbial wisdom has referred to the Chinese word for \"Crisis\" as meaning both \"Danger\" and Opportunity.\" However\, according to Dr. Victor Mair\, Professor of Chinese Language and Literature\, University of Pennsylvania\, this is a grossly inaccurate statement when trying to describe the concept of opportunity. Instead\, he recommends the word \"Liángjī\"(Excellent\" + \"Incipient moment\" = Opportunity) to explain real opportunity at an inflection point in time. The US commercial nuclear industry can be considered an \"Liángjī.\" US nuclear electricity generating capacity is expected to decline over the next 30 years\, the recent boom in shale oil discoveries\, low natural gas prices\, and the apparent inability to construct and deliver US commercial nuclear power plants on time and within budget have all contributed to a low confidence in the future of commercial nuclear power. However\, a new class of nuclear power plants\, Generation IV (Gen IV)\, with the ability to provide cogeneration solutions (electricity and process heat) for non-traditional applications and\, in some cases\, utilize nuclear waste as fuel has the potential to enable the industry\, like a Phoenix\, to raise from the ashes of gloom. This presentation will describe considerations\, strategies and plans of X-energy\, a Gen IV High Temperate Gas Reactor technology developer\, as it leapfrogs traditional commercial nuclear power plant technology to globally deliver breakthrough clean\, safe\, secure and affordable energy solutions.\n\nBio: As vice president for strategy and business development at X-energy\, Jeff directs long-term business plans specifically focused on customers\, partners and markets. Jeff has 30 years of entrepreneurial\, general management\, and nuclear power industry experience in Africa\, Europe\, and the US. Prior to joining X-energy\, Jeff worked at the Westinghouse Advanced Reactors Program (pebble bed reactor)\, where he was a commercial/business development program leader and the initial commercial leader for its Small Modular Light Water Nuclear Reactor program. Prior to Westinghouse\, Jeff was Founder and CEO for Turner\, Harper & Associates\, a niche global engineering firm\, with 100 full time staff serving key clients including the Department of Energy\, the CEZ - Czech Republic Nuclear Power Company\, Lockheed-Martin\, and Bechtel Jacobs. Jeff also served as a Vendor Inspector for the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission\, where he led more than 30 management\, technical\, and quality assurance inspections and audits of nuclear power plants and vendors. Jeff serves on the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Civil Nuclear Trade Advisory Committee\, Nuclear Energy Institute’s Suppliers Advisory Committee\, Prince George’s County Workforce Development Board and is a frequent speaker on advanced nuclear. Jeff received a B.S. in Metallurgical Engineering from the University of Cincinnati and an MBA from the Harvard Business School.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Quantify Systematics from Mislabeled Truth Tables in Supervised Learning
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Many real world classification problems use ground truth labels created by human annotators. However\, observed data is never perfect\, and even labels assigned by perfect annotators can be systematically biased due to poor quality of the data they are labeling. This bias is not created by the annotators from measurement error\, but is intrinsic to the observational data. We present a method for de-biasing labels which simultaneously learns a classification model\, estimates the intrinsic biases in the ground truth\, and provides new de-biased labels. We test our algorithm on simulated and real data and show that it is superior to standard denoising algorithms\, like instance weighted logistic regression. We apply our technique to galaxy images and find that the morphologies based on supervised machine-learning trained over features such as colors\, shape\, and concentration show significantly less bias than morphologies based on expert or citizen-science classifiers. This result holds even when there is underlying bias present in the training sets used in the supervised machine learning process.\n\nBio: Chris Miller is a leader in astroinformatics – mixing computer science\, advanced statistics\, and data mining to answer key cosmological questions. His specialty is using galaxy clusters to trace the distribution of matter in the universe. After years exploiting the Sloan Digital Sky Survey\, he is now heavily involved in the Dark Energy Survey and Dark Energy Spectroscopic Survey\, two of the largest current astronomical survey efforts. Professor Miller used his galaxy-cluster research to support the Big Bang theory by aligning findings from opposing cosmological epochs. He was the first to see the signatures of sound waves from the very early universe that were “frozen into” the matter-density distribution that we observe today. His analysis of the current universe synched neatly with the acoustic oscillations of the early universe detected in the cosmic microwave background\, and demonstrated the power of combining big-survey with focused observational follow-up data. He has published in a variety of journals outside his own fields of physics and astronomy\, including NIPS\, ICPR\, The Annals of Applied Statistics\, and Statistical Science.\n\nBackground: BS\, Penn State\; PhD\, University of Maine. Postdoc (2000-2005) Carnegie-Mellon\; Faculty (2005-2009) National Optical Astronomy Observatory/Chile. Hired in 2010 at U-M under a presidential initiative for advancing data mining research.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Musicology Distinguished Lecture Series: Prof. Edmund Goehring\, Western University (Ontario)
DESCRIPTION:This talk works through some under-examined troubles besetting de-Romanticized criticism that uses the mechanisms of music to negate the force of subjectivity. It does so by drawing on a pair of categories first developed for the analysis of literature and the visual arts: A. D. Nuttall’s “transparent” and “opaque” modes. Nuttall’s categories present both a challenge and opportunity by bringing back into view an older mode of criticism that can see not just different things from the new\, but more things\, and with no loss of intellectual rigor or weakening of validity as historical and aesthetic insight.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Impressions in Pastel
DESCRIPTION:Sharon Will’s commitment to painting is to capture the simple\, everyday beauty around her in her native Michigan and beyond. She is passionate about painting plein air (outdoors) whenever possible\, as she feels the direct observation from life is the best teacher to truly see the subtleties of light and color in nature. Working on sanded paper\, her process begins with a pastel and alcohol/mineral spirits under-painting wash to establish value and color. Soft pastel is applied in layers\, often in contrasting color and temperatures for vibrancy. Over her 35-year career in painting\, Will has won numerous national awards. She also operates a custom framing business from her home/studio in Washington Township and teaches occasional workshops.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Mystery Train: Oil on Linen
DESCRIPTION:Gregg Chadwick grew up with the rails of America in his blood. His grandfather Arthur Desch stoked coal in steam engines before becoming a train engineer on the Jersey Central Line. At family gatherings in Chadwick’s grandparent’s home\, his aunts and cousins played music to the rhythms of the trains outside. From Junior Parker\, Elvis Presley\, Bob Dylan and Johnny Cash\, to arts writers and directors Greil Marcus and Jim Jarmusch\, the enduring mythos of America and its legacy has been wrapped up in the blues notes of the song “Mystery Train”. Chadwick’s current series of paintings\, Mystery Train\, is steeped in the powerful echoes of those machine days.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Written Culture of Christian Egypt: Coptic Manuscripts from the University of Michigan Collection
DESCRIPTION:The dry climate of the Egyptian desert offers an ideal environment for the preservation of ancient artifacts. As the sands of Egypt has preserved also numerous Coptic manuscripts\, the transmission of the literary heritage of Egyptian Christians can be documented quite well from its beginnings in the 4th century CE until its decline in the 12th-13th centuries CE\, when it was completely superseded by Arabic. This exhibit aims to show some of the hallmarks of Coptic literature using manuscripts kept in the Special Collections Research Center of the University of Michigan Library. Topics explored include the main Coptic dialects\; bilingualism in Egypt\; books read by the Egyptian monks\; and the works of Shenoute the Great\, the most important author of Coptic literature.\n\nThis exhibit is curated by Dr. Frank Feder and Dr. Alin Suciu from the Göttingen Academy of Sciences and Humanities. The exhibit and related programming are offered with support from the Department of Middle East Studies and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology.\n\nJoin us for an opening lecture and reception at 4:30 p.m. on November 12 in the Hatcher Library Gallery.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s
DESCRIPTION:Can abstract art be about politics? In the early 1970s\, that question was hotly debated as artists\, critics\, and the public grappled with the relationship between art\, politics\, race\, and feminism. Many of those debates centered on bringing to light the roles that gender and race played in how “great modern art” was defined and assessed\, and on employing art to advance civil rights. Within this discourse\, abstraction had an especially fraught role. To many\, the decision by women artists and artists of color  to make abstract art seemed to represent a retreat from politics and protest: an abnegation of a commitment to civil rights and feminism. \"Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s\" presents large-scale work by four leading American artists—Helen Frankenthaler\, Sam Gilliam\, Al Loving\, and Louise Nevelson—who chose abstraction as a means of expression within the intense political climate of the early 1970s.\n\nLead support for \"Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s\" is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Institute for Research on Women and Gender. Additional generous support is provided by the Robert and Janet Miller Fund and the University of Michigan Department of Political Science.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Marisa Morán Jahn: The Mighty and the Mythic
DESCRIPTION:Marisa Morán Jahn: The Mighty and the Mythic\nJanuary 24\, 2019 – March 2\, 2019\n\nStamps Gallery is proud to present The Mighty and the Mythic\, a solo exhibition of work by renowned social practice artist Marisa Morán Jahn. For the first time\, The Mighty and the Mythic brings together three key projects — CareForce (2012– ongoing)\, Bibliobandido (2010–ongoing)\, and MIRROR | MASK (2017–ongoing) — that highlight her deep and meaningful collaborations with low-wage immigrants\, caregivers\, and youth. Jahn describes her use of play and humor as essential tools that enable her and her collaborators to portray their lives with dignity\, critique power\, and build momentum within their community. Jahn’s practice is deeply informed by her own experiences growing up as a second-generation immigrant of Chinese and Ecuadorian heritage. For Jahn home was not a fixed place but an adaptation itself. Her varied vocational past as a schoolteacher\, caretaker\, woodshop cleaner-upper\, lumber hauler\, community organizer\, and now university professor and mother informs the urgency in her work to find common ground between (her-)self and (an-)other\, through the concepts of care and empathy. Each of the works in this exhibition highlights her deep engagement with the stories of everyday people\, mundane routines\, and a desire to build an inclusive society. Marisa Morán Jahn: the Mighty and the Mythic celebrates and acknowledges the daily struggles and minor victories of the 99 percent that make up the spirit of our society in the twenty-first century.\n\nArtwork by Marisa Morán Jahn: The Driver (detail)\, from MIRROR | MASK series\, featuring Darlyne Komukama. 2017\, Uganda

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Paul Rand: The Designer's Task
DESCRIPTION:Paul Rand's visionary conceptions of brand identity \nPaul Rand was a giant of American design\, whose influential career spanned the second half of the twentieth century. His visionary and pithy conceptions of corporate and non-profit brand identities—though often graphically minimal—embody the artist’s complex philosophy\, interest in modernist aesthetics\, and singular wit. This exhibition features posters\, book covers\, and packaging designs from Rand’s beginnings as a pro bono designer for arts and culture publications like Direction magazine to his decades of crafting trailblazing corporate design for companies such as IBM. Paul Rand: The Designer’s Task affords viewers the opportunity to explore the genre of graphic design within the context of the art museum and examine how Rand’s intellectual process and impact on visual culture developed over time.\n\n

SUMMARY:Film Screening:Korean Cinema NOW | Believer / 독전
DESCRIPTION:2018 | 123 Minutes | Directed by Hae-young Lee \n\nFree | Open to the public | In Korean with English subtitles \n    \n'Believer' is a wild and boisterous crime drama that’s evenly split between romanticizing the back-and-forth between cops and robbers\, and lamenting the pointlessness of that endless pursuit. Directed by Lee Hae-young\, a rising talent whose distaste for half-measures was already on full display in his previous work (e.g. 2015’s “The Silenced”)\, the film espouses a violent commitment to both sides of that coin — the fun of the chase\, and the hollow pain that someone feels when it finally catches up to them.\" - David Ehrlich\, Indiewire \n    \nCheck out Indiewire's full review: https://www.indiewire.com/2018/06/believer-review-lee-hae-young-1201971963/

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Universal Declaration of Human Rights: Linocuts by Meredith Stern

Stern created a total of 28 sets of these linocut prints in 2017\, of which one is held in the Joseph A. Labadie Collection in the Special Collections Research Center.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Impressions in Pastel
DESCRIPTION:Sharon Will’s commitment to painting is to capture the simple\, everyday beauty around her in her native Michigan and beyond. She is passionate about painting plein air (outdoors) whenever possible\, as she feels the direct observation from life is the best teacher to truly see the subtleties of light and color in nature. Working on sanded paper\, her process begins with a pastel and alcohol/mineral spirits under-painting wash to establish value and color. Soft pastel is applied in layers\, often in contrasting color and temperatures for vibrancy. Over her 35-year career in painting\, Will has won numerous national awards. She also operates a custom framing business from her home/studio in Washington Township and teaches occasional workshops.

From Junior Parker\, Elvis Presley\, Bob Dylan and Johnny Cash\, to arts writers and directors Greil Marcus and Jim Jarmusch\, the enduring mythos of America and its legacy has been wrapped up in the blues notes of the song “Mystery Train”. Chadwick’s current series of paintings\, Mystery Train\, is steeped in the powerful echoes of those machine days.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Written Culture of Christian Egypt: Coptic Manuscripts from the University of Michigan Collection
DESCRIPTION:The dry climate of the Egyptian desert offers an ideal environment for the preservation of ancient artifacts. As the sands of Egypt has preserved also numerous Coptic manuscripts\, the transmission of the literary heritage of Egyptian Christians can be documented quite well from its beginnings in the 4th century CE until its decline in the 12th-13th centuries CE\, when it was completely superseded by Arabic. This exhibit aims to show some of the hallmarks of Coptic literature using manuscripts kept in the Special Collections Research Center of the University of Michigan Library. Topics explored include the main Coptic dialects\; bilingualism in Egypt\; books read by the Egyptian monks\; and the works of Shenoute the Great\, the most important author of Coptic literature.\n\nThis exhibit is curated by Dr. Frank Feder and Dr. Alin Suciu from the Göttingen Academy of Sciences and Humanities. The exhibit and related programming are offered with support from the Department of Middle East Studies and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology.\n\nJoin us for an opening lecture and reception at 4:30 p.m. on November 12 in the Hatcher Library Gallery.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Marisa Morán Jahn: The Mighty and the Mythic
DESCRIPTION:Marisa Morán Jahn: The Mighty and the Mythic\nJanuary 24\, 2019 – March 2\, 2019\n\nStamps Gallery is proud to present The Mighty and the Mythic\, a solo exhibition of work by renowned social practice artist Marisa Morán Jahn. For the first time\, The Mighty and the Mythic brings together three key projects — CareForce (2012– ongoing)\, Bibliobandido (2010–ongoing)\, and MIRROR | MASK (2017–ongoing) — that highlight her deep and meaningful collaborations with low-wage immigrants\, caregivers\, and youth. Jahn describes her use of play and humor as essential tools that enable her and her collaborators to portray their lives with dignity\, critique power\, and build momentum within their community. Jahn’s practice is deeply informed by her own experiences growing up as a second-generation immigrant of Chinese and Ecuadorian heritage. For Jahn home was not a fixed place but an adaptation itself. Her varied vocational past as a schoolteacher\, caretaker\, woodshop cleaner-upper\, lumber hauler\, community organizer\, and now university professor and mother informs the urgency in her work to find common ground between (her-)self and (an-)other\, through the concepts of care and empathy. Each of the works in this exhibition highlights her deep engagement with the stories of everyday people\, mundane routines\, and a desire to build an inclusive society. Marisa Morán Jahn: the Mighty and the Mythic celebrates and acknowledges the daily struggles and minor victories of the 99 percent that make up the spirit of our society in the twenty-first century.\n\nArtwork by Marisa Morán Jahn: The Driver (detail)\, from MIRROR | MASK series\, featuring Darlyne Komukama. 2017\, Uganda

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s
DESCRIPTION:Can abstract art be about politics? In the early 1970s\, that question was hotly debated as artists\, critics\, and the public grappled with the relationship between art\, politics\, race\, and feminism. Many of those debates centered on bringing to light the roles that gender and race played in how “great modern art” was defined and assessed\, and on employing art to advance civil rights. Within this discourse\, abstraction had an especially fraught role. To many\, the decision by women artists and artists of color  to make abstract art seemed to represent a retreat from politics and protest: an abnegation of a commitment to civil rights and feminism. \"Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s\" presents large-scale work by four leading American artists—Helen Frankenthaler\, Sam Gilliam\, Al Loving\, and Louise Nevelson—who chose abstraction as a means of expression within the intense political climate of the early 1970s.\n\nLead support for \"Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s\" is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Institute for Research on Women and Gender. Additional generous support is provided by the Robert and Janet Miller Fund and the University of Michigan Department of Political Science.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Paul Rand: The Designer's Task
DESCRIPTION:Paul Rand's visionary conceptions of brand identity \nPaul Rand was a giant of American design\, whose influential career spanned the second half of the twentieth century. His visionary and pithy conceptions of corporate and non-profit brand identities—though often graphically minimal—embody the artist’s complex philosophy\, interest in modernist aesthetics\, and singular wit. This exhibition features posters\, book covers\, and packaging designs from Rand’s beginnings as a pro bono designer for arts and culture publications like Direction magazine to his decades of crafting trailblazing corporate design for companies such as IBM. Paul Rand: The Designer’s Task affords viewers the opportunity to explore the genre of graphic design within the context of the art museum and examine how Rand’s intellectual process and impact on visual culture developed over time.\n\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Proof: The Ryoichi Excavations
DESCRIPTION:A narrative of Ryoichi's archaeological work \nThe story of Japanese archaeologist Ryoichi and evidence of his worldwide excavations are explored by Patrick Nagatani in this series of photographs. Nagatani presents a narrative of Ryoichi’s archaeological work\, supported by images of excavation sites\, unearthed artifacts\, and Ryoichi’s own journal pages. According to the photographs\, Ryoichi discovered evidence of an automobile culture buried at sites across several continents: Stonehenge\, the Grand Canyon\, and a necropolis in China. This provocative and playful series compels viewers to reflect on how photographs and institutions\, such as museums\, shape our knowledge of the past and present.\n\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Universal Declaration of Human Rights: Linocuts by Meredith Stern
DESCRIPTION:On December 10\, 1948\, in the aftermath of the devastation of World War II\, the United Nations General Assembly adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights as a roadmap to guarantee the rights of every individual everywhere.

Stern created a total of 28 sets of these linocut prints in 2017\, of which one is held in the Joseph A. Labadie Collection in the Special Collections Research Center.

SUMMARY:Meeting:Great Task
DESCRIPTION:What is Lorem Ipsum? \nLorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s\, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries\, but also the leap into electronic typesetting\, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages\, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum. \n\nWhy do we use it? \nIt is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters\, as opposed to using 'Content here\, content here'\, making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text\, and a search for 'lorem ipsum' will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years\, sometimes by accident\, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Luigi Ferri: The Survival of a 12-year-old Italian Child at Auschwitz
DESCRIPTION:Seven hundred and seventy six Italian children under the age of 14 were deported to Auschwitz. Only 25 survived the gas chambers. Luigi Ferri was one of them.\n\nAs the child of mixed marriage he could have avoided deportation\, but he refused to abandon his beloved Jewish grandmother when she was arrested in June 1944 in Trieste.\n\nAt Auschwitz they were sent to the gas chambers\, but Luigi was spared at the last moment\, only because a Jewish inmate who was working as a doctor at the hospital of the camp\, Dr. Otto Wolken\, took him under his protection.\n\nLuigino remained hidden for weeks in a barrack and was then registered (tattooed) and \"employed\" as an errand boy. He and his protector miraculously survived the liquidation of the camp. In April 1945\, Luigi was one of the first witnesses of the atrocities of the camp to appear before a Polish tribunal. Afterwards\, he mysteriously vanished for the\nrest of his life\, the only Italian Auschwitz survivor of whom no news ever surfaced again - or at least this is what is commonly repeated. Newly discovered documents are now revealing us the whole story.\n\nPresented by The Dante Alighieri Society of Michigan\, in collaboration with the Department of Middle East Studies\, the Frankel Center for Judaic Studies\, the Consulate of Italy in Detroit\, and the Italian Cultural Institute of Chicago.\n\nThis event is free and open to the public. Pre-registration is welcomed\, but it is not required for UM Faculty and students.\n\nRSVP by January 25\, 2019 at: dantemichigan.org

DESCRIPTION:Sculptor Herb Babcock creates both monumental and human-scale work using metal\, glass and stone. In the early years of the American Studio Glass Movement (1974-1984) Babcock’s sculptural and painterly expression utilized the vessel format. By layering color — both mass and line — between gathers of clear\, molten glass\, the full compositions are viewed through the vessel as three-dimensional. Babcock is Professor Emeritus\, College for Creative Studies. He was Section Chair of the Glass Department where he taught for 40 years. He lives in Ann Arbor and built a new studio near U-M north campus in 2016.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Impressions in Pastel
DESCRIPTION:Sharon Will’s commitment to painting is to capture the simple\, everyday beauty around her in her native Michigan and beyond. She is passionate about painting plein air (outdoors) whenever possible\, as she feels the direct observation from life is the best teacher to truly see the subtleties of light and color in nature. Working on sanded paper\, her process begins with a pastel and alcohol/mineral spirits under-painting wash to establish value and color. Soft pastel is applied in layers\, often in contrasting color and temperatures for vibrancy. Over her 35-year career in painting\, Will has won numerous national awards. She also operates a custom framing business from her home/studio in Washington Township and teaches occasional workshops.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Mystery Train: Oil on Linen
DESCRIPTION:Gregg Chadwick grew up with the rails of America in his blood. His grandfather Arthur Desch stoked coal in steam engines before becoming a train engineer on the Jersey Central Line. At family gatherings in Chadwick’s grandparent’s home\, his aunts and cousins played music to the rhythms of the trains outside. From Junior Parker\, Elvis Presley\, Bob Dylan and Johnny Cash\, to arts writers and directors Greil Marcus and Jim Jarmusch\, the enduring mythos of America and its legacy has been wrapped up in the blues notes of the song “Mystery Train”. Chadwick’s current series of paintings\, Mystery Train\, is steeped in the powerful echoes of those machine days.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:she was here\, once
DESCRIPTION:The mobility and displacement of the Black body\, from port to holding cell\, to ward and out\, is a history that is embedded in our communities socially\, culturally and geographically. Alluding to feelings of pain\, otherness\, power and triumph\, \"she was here\, once\" features work that illustrates a moment of remembrance and reflection on the women who have roamed these spaces before us.\n\nIn summer 2018\, artist Nastassja Swift organized a collaborative workshop and public performance in her home city of Richmond\, Virginia. Using a range of choreographed movement\, sound\, and solidarity\, eight Black women and girls\, wearing large needle felted wool masks\, traced the ancestral footprints of the arrival of the Black body in Richmond. The 3.5 mile walk began in Shockoe Bottom (the site of the importation of slaves into Richmond\, and one of the largest sources of slave trade in America) and concluded in the Jackson Ward neighborhood (one of the largest Black communities in Richmond).\n\nThe multi-layered piece has produced a short film\, mini documentary\, photography\, and performance masks\, on display in her solo exhibition\, \"she was here\, once\" in Lane Hall.\n\nLane Hall Gallery is open to the public weekdays from 8am - 4pm. Class visits are encouraged.\n\nAccessibility: Ramp and elevator access at the E. Washington Street entrance (by the loading dock). There are accessible restrooms on the south end of Lane Hall\, on each floor of the building. A gender neutral restroom is available on the first floor.\n\nContact Heidi Bennett\, IRWG Event Planner (heidiab@umich.edu) with questions about this exhibition.\n\nCosponsors: Department of Women's Studies\, Stamps School of Art & Design\, Department of English\, Art History\, Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies\, Center for the Education of Women+

Whine\, Werk\, and Roll: the Art of the Lapa celebrates this utilitarian object of beauty and the craftsmanship of the men and women who sew their seams.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Written Culture of Christian Egypt: Coptic Manuscripts from the University of Michigan Collection
DESCRIPTION:The dry climate of the Egyptian desert offers an ideal environment for the preservation of ancient artifacts. As the sands of Egypt has preserved also numerous Coptic manuscripts\, the transmission of the literary heritage of Egyptian Christians can be documented quite well from its beginnings in the 4th century CE until its decline in the 12th-13th centuries CE\, when it was completely superseded by Arabic. This exhibit aims to show some of the hallmarks of Coptic literature using manuscripts kept in the Special Collections Research Center of the University of Michigan Library. Topics explored include the main Coptic dialects\; bilingualism in Egypt\; books read by the Egyptian monks\; and the works of Shenoute the Great\, the most important author of Coptic literature.\n\nThis exhibit is curated by Dr. Frank Feder and Dr. Alin Suciu from the Göttingen Academy of Sciences and Humanities. The exhibit and related programming are offered with support from the Department of Middle East Studies and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology.\n\nJoin us for an opening lecture and reception at 4:30 p.m. on November 12 in the Hatcher Library Gallery.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Paved with Good Intentions
DESCRIPTION:In keeping with artist David Opdyke’s previous work\, this site-specific installation serves as a critique of U.S. culture and politics. In an era of fake news and daily hyperbole\, Opdyke literally changes the picture by hand painting on 528 vintage postcards of well-known American landmarks and destinations. The postcards are assembled into a large mural--a vast gridded landscape beset by environmental chaos. Each card is placed to fit into the overall image\, and carefully modified with the gouache to show a realistically rendered piece of the overall turmoil.\n\nThe installation also features animated shorts and script-driven video\, which take place within the visual confines of one or more postcards. The animation is inspired\, in part\, by Terry Gilliam’s animation work on Monty Python’s \"Flying Circus\" and by the classical music sound effects in the Road Runner cartoons.\n\nAbout David Opdyke:\nDavid Opdyke is a draughtsman\, sculptor\, and animator known for his trenchant political send-ups of American culture. Born in Schenectady\, NY in 1969\, he graduated from the University of Cincinnati with a degree in painting and sculpture. His work is informed by the massive industrial and corporate restructuring he witnessed growing up\, namely the abandonment of the city center by manufacturing giants General Electric and ALCO. As GE shifted resources to neighboring Niskayuna\, the disparities became hard for Opdyke to ignore. Massive\, decaying factories\, an empty interstate loop\, and unemployment were downtown\; new streets\, expensive homes\, sushi and shopping malls were in the suburbs.\n\nFor 20 years Opdyke worked as a scenic painter and architectural model-maker. Ranging from intricate miniature constructions to room-sized installations\, his artwork explores globalization\, consumerism\, and civilization’s abusive relationship with the environment.\n\nThis project is supported by a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Water System Finance: the Political Pitfalls of Public-Private Partnerships
DESCRIPTION:Betty Ford Classroom (1110)\n735 S. State Street\, Ann Arbor  48109-3091\n\n11:30am-12:50pm (pizza lunch provided)\n\nFree and open to the public\n\nAbout the Lecture:\nPlease join us in a Conversation Across Difference\, as Professor Teodoro discusses alternative ownership and management models for water and sewer utilities\, as well as the political dimensions of public\, private\, and public-private partnerships (P3s)\, and what they mean for cost and quality.  \nCurrently about 84% of American drinking water utilities are owned and operated by local governments\; about 15% are private\, investor-owned companies\, and a tiny percentage operate as public-private partnerships (P3s). Many communities with struggling utilities pursue privatization or P3s as potential ways to address their problems. These processes invariably focus principally on finance\, with little attention to water quality or political processes. \n\nDr. Teodoro will share theory\, case studies\, and statistical models that tell the story of the advantages and disadvantages of public and private ownership of water and sewer for urban/rural and large/small systems.\n\nDr. Manny Teodoro’s scholarship stands at the nexus of politics\, public policy\, and public management. His research focuses on U.S. environmental policy\, examining the ways in which human capital\, management practices\, and political institutions condition the implementation of federal environmental regulations. He pursues a line of applied policy research on water utility finance and management\, and has developed new methods for assessing rate equity and affordability. Ongoing efforts include comparative analysis of private and public utility management\, as well analysis of racial\, ethnic\, and income disparities in environmental compliance and enforcement.\n\nProfessor Teodoro’s public administration research emphasizes executive behavior\, with special attention to professions and bureaucratic career systems as political phenomena. His award-winning book\, Bureaucratic Ambition (2011\, Johns Hopkins University Press)\, argues that ambition–psychological motives manifested in a career opportunity structure–shapes administrators’ decisions to innovate and to engage in politics\, with important consequences for innovation in government and democratic governance. Current research on executive career systems seeks to link executive backgrounds and career paths to management behavior and organizational outcomes.\nProfessor Teodoro’s research has been funded by the National Science Foundation\, Water Research Foundation\, and American Water Works Association. His work has been published in the American Journal of Political Science\, the Journal of Public Administration Research and Theory\, Public Administration Review\, Journal of Public Policy\, State & Local Government Review\, and the Journal of the American Water Works Association.\n\nSponsored by:  University of Michigan Center for Local\, State\, and Urban Policy (CLOSUP) and Gerald R.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:ELPP Lecture Series: Opportunity and Action in Federal Environmental Policy
DESCRIPTION:The Trump administration has drastically changed how federal environmental policy is shaped and implemented. Beyond this obvious headline\, there are much bigger trends that will influence the environment and economy in the years ahead. Mr. Parker will discuss where the real action and opportunity will be in this space in the coming years. \n\nThis lecture is free and open to the public. \n\nDoug Parker is a recognized leader in environmental risk and compliance who advises clients on environmental policy\, public sector strategies\, enforcement actions and crisis management. \n\nAt E&W Strategies\, he serves clients by providing strategic direction in the areas of corporate and individual risk\, crisis mitigation and environmental compliance. He brings a unique perspective to his role as the former Director of EPA's Criminal Investigation Division where he oversaw matters ranging from the investigation into the Deepwater Horizon disaster to the Volkswagen emissions cheating scandal. \n\nMr. Parker counsels clients on navigating environmental\, health and safety compliance challenges across multiple industries\, including the automotive\, energy\, chemical\, utility and manufacturing sectors. He also provides guidance to law firms\, consulting firms\, and financial entities that are managing compliance matters or are engaged in due diligence with environmental risk implications. Additionally\, Mr. Parker serves as a subject matter expert for those seeking to understand and navigate the environmental and natural resource policy space or who may be advocating at the federal level on critical policy and enforcement issues. \n\nMr. Parker speaks regularly to industry groups on strategies for navigating environmental risk and has shared his insights on CNN\, National Public Radio\, as well as in The New York Times and numerous other media outlets.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Developmental Brown Bag:
DESCRIPTION:Valerie Freund\nTitle: Boredom by Sensation Seeking Interactions During Adolescence\n\nAbstract: The experience of boredom is linked to several adverse outcomes including substance use\, risk taking\, and psychopathology. Despite evidence that boredom levels peak during adolescence\, little work has been done to understand how it interacts with individual traits and its impact on adolescent psychosocial functioning and behavior. In a multi-cohort\, national sample of 8th and 10th grade students from the Monitoring the Future study\, latent moderated structural equation modeling was used to estimate the associations of boredom\, sensation seeking\, and their interaction\, with substance use\, externalizing behavior\, and internalizing symptomology. Moderation by gender was also tested. The results of this study demonstrate the generalizability of boredom associations and the significance of boredom by sensation seeking interactions across multiple domains during adolescence.\n\nYoung-en Lee\nTitle: Children’s Evaluations of Third-party Responses to Unfairness: Children Prefer Compensation over Punishment\n\nAbstract: Humans are willing to punish individuals who violate fairness norms\, even if they have to pay a cost and are not directly affected. This so-called third-party punishment is a way to intervene against transgressions and is known to stabilize norms. However\, punishment is not the only way to restore justice in such situations. Rather than punishing a perpetrator\, a third-party could also compensate a victim for their loss. To date\, there is no research that investigated children’s evaluations of punishers in comparison with compensators. In the current research\, we examined children's evaluations of third-party punishers and compensators. Five- to 9-year-old children heard a story in which a divider distributes candies selfishly between the self and a recipient. Then\, a third-party punisher takes candies from the unfair divider\, whereas a third-party compensator gives candies to the victim. We measured children’s liking for each third-party on a Likert scale and their forced-choice preference. Results revealed that children evaluated both third parties positively\, but they preferred compensators over punishers. The current research has implications for the development of understanding on justice restoration.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Dialogue and Difference:  The Point of “Pointless” Language in British and Persian Exchange 1812–1923
DESCRIPTION:Niloofar Sarlati is a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Cultural Studies and Comparative Literature at the University of Minnesota\, and a finalist in the LSA Collegiate Fellows Program at the University of Michigan.  \n\nHer talk explores how longstanding conventions of Persian courtesy became suspect indices of \"primitive\" (versus “civilized”) society in Western discourse and thus of a self-perceived “defective” modernity in early-twentieth-century Iran. She argues that transformations in the understanding of language\, social interaction\, and human life itself were articulated through discursive shifts in time-value\, truth-value\, and exchange-value that took shape in a broader dialogue between English and Persian in the long nineteenth century.

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:A Philosopher Looks at Our Political Crisis
DESCRIPTION:In The Monarchy of Fear\, author Martha Nussbaum\, Professor of Law and Ethics in the Philosophy Department of the University of Chicago\, writes that since the 2016 election the role of emotion in political opinion has been largely overlooked. In the U.S. and across Europe\, the economic stress and rapid social changes affecting many lives have created a sense of powerlessness and a pervasive underlying fear of change.\nThe result is resentment and blame directed at immigrants\, Muslims\, minority races\, and the elite. We will read this book and talk about the ideas.\nPlease read through p.16 for the first class.\nInstructor Gerry Lapidus will lead this study group for those 50 and over for two hours on Mondays from January 28 through March 18.  No class meeting on March 4.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Seminar: Single-cell analysis reveals regulatory network disruption in acute myeloid leukemia
DESCRIPTION:Single-cell technologies can provide unprecedented insights into tissue heterogeneity of normal blood and acute myeloid leukemia (AML). We monitored stress signaling in single cells to understand how hematopoietic and leukemia stem cells balance survival and apoptosis. Furthermore\, we combined single-cell RNA-sequencing and genotyping to define AML cell types and their malignant properties. Uncovering principles of normal blood development and leukemia will ultimately lead to therapies that can eliminate heterogeneous AML cells.\n\nSpeaker bio:\nPeter van Galen investigates fundamental mechanisms that maintain normal hematopoiesis and acute myeloid leukemia (AML). He uses innovative and single-cell technologies to study the stem cells that sustain these complex tissues\, a theme that was carried forward from his Ph.D. work with Dr. John Dick (Toronto) to his postdoc with Dr. Bradley Bernstein (Boston). The first area of research focuses on hematopoietic and leukemia stem cell (HSC and LSC) maintenance during stress. He implicated the Unfolded Protein Response and Integrated Stress Response as critical pathways that control HSC and LSC fate by balancing apoptosis and survival. The second area of research focuses on transcriptional control of normal and malignant tissue hierarchies by transcription factors and epigenetic regulation. He also combined single-cell transcriptional and genetic profiling with machine learning to define malignant AML cell types\, revealing disruption of regulatory networks and drivers of malignant progression. Ultimately\, van Galen aims to use innovative technologies and bioinformatics to uncover the organizing principles of normal and malignant blood systems\, with the goal of discovering therapies that can eliminate heterogeneous AML cells.\n\nSponsored by the Life Sciences Institute\, Internal Medicine\, and Pathology.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Universal Declaration of Human Rights: Linocuts by Meredith Stern
DESCRIPTION:On December 10\, 1948\, in the aftermath of the devastation of World War II\, the United Nations General Assembly adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights as a roadmap to guarantee the rights of every individual everywhere. The complete Declaration is comprised of a Preamble and 30 Articles. In honor of the 60th anniversary of this document\, we are exhibiting 14 Articles in the form of illustrated prints by Meredith Stern. These contemporary prints are intended both to make people aware of this rights roadmap and to show its urgent relevance in our contemporary political moment.\n\nMeredith Stern is an artist currently based in Providence\, RI\, and a member of the Justseeds Artists’ Cooperative\, a decentralized network of 30 artists committed to social\, environmental\, and political engagement. Stern created a total of 28 sets of these linocut prints in 2017\, of which one is held in the Joseph A. Labadie Collection in the Special Collections Research Center.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HEP-Astro Seminar | Axions\, Direction Detection\, and ABRACADABRA
DESCRIPTION:The axion is a promising dark matter candidate which was originally proposed to solve the strong CP problem in particle physics. To date\, the available parameter space for axion and axion-like particle dark matter is relatively unexplored\, particularly at axion masses less than 1 mu eV. ABRACADABRA is a new experimental program to search for axion dark matter over a broad range of masses\, 10−12  < m_a <10−6 eV\, and ABRACADABRA-10 cm is a small-scale prototype for a future detector that could be sensitive to the QCD axion. Recently\, a one-month data collection with ABRACADABRA-10 cm lead to the first results in the search for axion dark matter by the ABRACADABRA collaboration. In this talk\, I will: review the theoretical and experimental status of axion physics\; describe the construction of the ABRACADABRA-10 cm detector\, the data collection\, and the analysis leading to new laboratory-based constraints on the axion\; and discuss future prospects for the ABRACADABRA program.\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:A conversation and book talk with Harold Koh on his new book: The Trump Administration and International Law
DESCRIPTION:Join John Ciorciari\, director of International Policy Center and Weiser Diplomacy Center\, for a conversation with Harold Koh not only about his book The Trump Administration and International Law. \n\nThis book answers one of the most pressing questions of our time: who is winning the battle of Donald Trump versus international law? This clear and comprehensive tour d'horizon\, by one of America's leading international lawyers\, explains why\, in his first two years\, Trump is not \"winning\" in his effort to resign the U.S. from global leadership\, and how the Resistance is blunting his initiatives.\n\nThe book surveys many fields of international law: immigration and refugees\, human rights\, climate change\, denuclearization\, trade diplomacy\, relations with North Korea\, Russia and Ukraine\, and America's \"Forever War\" against Al Qaeda and the Islamic State and its challenges in Syria.\n\nOffers a counter-strategy to preserve the rule of law against the Trump Administration's many initiatives to change the nature of America's relationship with international law and its institutions.\n\nHarold Hongju Koh is Sterling Professor of International Law at Yale Law School. He returned to Yale Law School in January 2013 after serving for nearly four years as the 22nd Legal Advise of the U.S. Department of State.\n\nProfessor Koh is one of the country’s leading experts in public and private international law\, national security law\, and human rights. He first began teaching at Yale Law School in 1985 and served as its fifteenth Dean from 2004 until 2009. From 2009 to 2013\, he took leave as the Martin R. Flug ’55 Professor of International Law to join the State Department as Legal Adviser\, service for which he received the Secretary of State's Distinguished Service Award. From 1993 to 2009\, he was the Gerard C. & Bernice Latrobe Smith Professor of International Law at Yale Law School\, and from 1998 to 2001\, he served as U.S. Assistant Secretary of State for Democracy\, Human Rights and Labor.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Anecdotes from COP24: Bringing International Climate Negotiations Home to Ann Arbor
DESCRIPTION:Maanya is a second year master’s student at the University of Michigan School of Environment and Sustainability. As part of her master’s thesis\, Maanya is looking at understanding various factors that influence farmers’ decisions in deciding sowing dates of rice in India and to what extent climate variability impacts these decisions. Prior to joining SEAS\, Maanya studied the impact of climate change on the Himalayan glaciers. Broadly\, she is interested in the field of climate change impacts on natural resources and their adaptive capacities. At COP24\, she followed climate adaptation communication with respect to developing countries.\n\nTim is a senior in the College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts where he studies in the Program in the Environment (PitE) and Philosophy\, Politics\, and Economics (PPE). He is also pursuing minors in Energy Science and Policy and Urban Studies. Tim is particularly interested in understanding political barriers to developed countries’ adoption of market-based climate change mitigation strategies--including emissions trading and carbon pricing policies--at sub-national and national levels. He is currently preparing his undergraduate thesis on the role of environmental NGOs and pressure groups in advancing the mitigation efforts of European Union member states. At COP24\, Tim followed talks on carbon markets and examined NGO influence strategies.\n\nEVENT DESCRIPTION:\nIn a joint presentation\, Tim and Maanya will discuss anecdotes from COP24\, tying their experiences and take-aways to the current US climate policy landscape and opportunities/challenges for future progress. Specifically\, they will draw lessons from the negotiations on economic diversification\, the just transition\, and science-inclusive policy and direct suggestions towards US stakeholders which may be applied in local climate work.

SUMMARY:Presentation:UM Psychology Community Talk
DESCRIPTION:Sickness and memory: How the immune system changes your brain.\n\nABSTRACT:\nMemory is critical for the ability to function in the world. By storing and retrieving information about the relationships between places\, events\, and outcomes\, our memories allow us to adjust our behavior to act in accordance with the current situation. We use our memory to navigate around our environment\, efficiently finding our way to work and back home\; to avoid dangerous places and things\, to find food\, and to recognize families\, friends and colleagues. This central role of memory in our everyday lives means that disorders of memory are particularly impactful. Deficits in memory are one of the first and most notable symptoms in Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias\, because they severely impact the ability for individuals to function independently in the world. Excessively strong memories are also problematic. For example\, persistent memories of trauma contribute to post-traumatic stress disorder\, leading to individuals avoiding places that trigger retrieval of those memory. But how do memory processes go bad? One thing we know about memory systems is that many different factors in our lives can change how well memory is stored. Stress can make some memories stronger\, and some memories weaker. Illness also changes how well we can learn and remember information. This flexibility in how memory systems work also means that they are vulnerable to disruption by stress and sickness. In this talk I will describe how changes in immune signaling during sickness can interfere with memory formation and discuss this in terms of both post-traumatic stress disorder and dementia.\n\n\n\nBIO:\nNatalie Tronson is an Assistant Professor of Psychology at the University of Michigan. After her undergraduate degree from the University of New South Wales\, in Australia\, Dr. Tronson moved to the United States and completed her PhD at Yale University\, followed by a post-doctoral position at Northwestern University. Her research focuses on how the brain stores and retrieves memory\, how memory is changed during stress and illness\, and sex differences in these processes. Dr. Tronson’s research combines behavioral approaches and molecular analyses in an animal model of memory\, with the goal of identifying new ways to prevent and treat memory disorders including post-traumatic stress disorder and dementia.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Image Vessels: Blown Glass
DESCRIPTION:Sculptor Herb Babcock creates both monumental and human-scale work using metal\, glass and stone. In the early years of the American Studio Glass Movement (1974-1984) Babcock’s sculptural and painterly expression utilized the vessel format. By layering color — both mass and line — between gathers of clear\, molten glass\, the full compositions are viewed through the vessel as three-dimensional. Babcock is Professor Emeritus\, College for Creative Studies. He was Section Chair of the Glass Department where he taught for 40 years. He lives in Ann Arbor and built a new studio near U-M north campus in 2016.
