SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CWPS Lecture with Jennifer Kyker: \"Portrait of Zimbabwe: The Chicago Dzviti Photograph Collection\"
DESCRIPTION:The Center for World Performance Studies (CWPS) presents a guest scholar lecture by ethnomusicologist and curator Dr. Jennifer Kyker.\n\nThe Chicago Dzviti Photograph Collection presents the work of Chicago Dzviti (1961-1995)\, a pioneering Zimbabwean photographer whose archive offers an extensive visual record of Zimbabwean social\, cultural\, and musical life. In this talk\, Dr. Kyker discusses her work as curator of the collection\, including the touring exhibit \"Portrait of Zimbabwe.\" She focuses particularly on Chicago Dzviti's intimate portrayals of Zimbabwean musicians\, which make up a significant portion of the collection. As curator\, Dr. Kyker's ethnographic approach explores relationships between visual culture and sound\, using collaborative methods such as feedback interviews with musicians\, curated playlists\, and live performances by contemporary artists. Throughout\, Dr. Kyker emphasizes how the Zimbabwean philosophy of hunhu/ubuntu\, which articulates a vision of human identity predicated upon moral relationships between the self and others\, is reflected in Chicago Dzviti's photographs as well as in the musical traditions they portray.\n\nJENNIFER W. KYKER is Professor of Ethnomusicology in the Alfred Satz Music Department at the University of Rochester. Kyker is a former ACLS Fellow and three-time Fulbright Fellow. As a Fulbright Scholar her most recent project\, “Portrait of Zimbabwe/Mifananidzo yeZimbabwe\,” is a photographic exhibit co-curated with Fadzai Veronica Muchemwa at the National Gallery of Zimbabwe\, and which is currently touring at venues throughout Zimbabwe. Her other work includes the digital humanities project Sekuru’s Stories (sekuru.org)\, featuring the oral narratives of Zimbabwean mbira player Sekuru Tute Chigamba\, and the digital albums \"Karirai Nhenda\" and \"Solo Mbira Songs\,\" featuring members of the female mbira collective Mhare dzeNhare (ambuya.org). Her articles on listening and reception\, music and gender\, HIV/AIDS\, and Zimbabwean musical bows have appeared in Ethnomusicology\, Ethnomusicology Forum\, African Music\, and the American Journal of Public Health. In 2003\, Kyker founded the nonprofit organization Tariro\, which educates teenaged girls in Zimbabwean communities affected by HIV/AIDS and offers traditional music and dance instruction in low-income neighborhoods (tariro.org).

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Consequence - Group Art Exhibition - Art as Environmental Activism
DESCRIPTION:This group exhibition is an in-depth exploration of the role of art as a powerful catalyst for environmental activism. At first glance\, these works each possess striking beauty. However\, a closer inspection reveals a profound and often unsettling depth that challenges one’s perceptions. \n\nThe artworks are imbued with many layers of meaning\, inviting us to engage critically with the themes presented and encouraging us to reflect on our often-fraught relationship with the natural world.   Through a variety of mediums and techniques\, these works prompt us to confront uncomfortable truths about climate change\, habitat loss\, and the disappearing biodiversity around us. \n\nCampbell’s captivating “Heatscape” series transforms what is often an intangible concept into the tangible realm by visually translating heat distribution data to depict the impact of urban design on climate.  This series offers a profound exploration of the intriguing phenomenon known as \"urban heat islands”\, a term that describes urban areas that absorb and radiate significantly more heat than their surrounding rural landscapes due to human activities and infrastructure.\n\n“Heatscape” invites us to engage in a deeper reflection about the profound impact that human ingenuity has wielded over the natural world\, serving as a visual reminder of our responsibility to urban design that is considerate to the environment and communities it impacts. This work challenges us to recognize the interplay between our lifestyles and the environment\, urging a dialogue about sustainable practices that could mitigate the effects of these heat islands.\n\nSnider’s work powerfully illustrates the remnants of industrialization\, capturing the unsettling essence of its aftermath. In his art\, we encounter an urban landscape that is strikingly devoid of human presence\, creating an almost haunting atmosphere. This absence of people amplifies the eerie feeling and serves as a warning about the enduring consequences of industrial progress. It prompts viewers to reflect on the environmental impact and the transformations that society has undergone\, urging us to consider what aspects of our world will persist in the wake of such change. Ultimately\, Snider’s poignant depictions challenge us to confront the stark reality of a landscape altered by human activity\, inviting contemplation on both the beauty and the desolation that can coexist in our modern environments.\n\nSandra Osip’s sculptures delve deeply into the juxtaposition of decay and destruction alongside the concepts of life and growth. Through her abstract structures\, she illustrates the profound effects climate change has on our urban landscapes and the planet as a whole. These pieces serve as a poignant reminder of the delicate balance between nature and human impact\, while Osip’s imaginative flowers evoke a sense of nostalgia and loss\, symbolizing the beauty of what has been irretrievably diminished in our world. By celebrating these natural forms\, she not only honors the richness of biodiversity but also raises awareness about the environmental crisis we face.\n\nCassells’ work not only celebrates a profound connection to nature and sustainable practices but also serves to illuminate the significant impact that climate change has on vulnerable communities. Through her art\, she investigates the intricate relationships between different environmental systems\, emphasizing how they are all interconnected. \n\nBy delving into these themes\, Cassells sheds light on the challenges faced by communities that often bear the brunt of climate change despite contributing the least to the problem. Her exploration encourages a deeper understanding of how environmental changes affect social structures and the lives of people in marginalized areas. In doing so\, she advocates for greater awareness and action to address these issues\, ultimately promoting a more sustainable and equitable future for all. \n\nShanna Merola’s photo-collages are informed by the stories of environmental justice struggles past and present.  Shanna Merola and Halima Afi Cassells collaborated on collage and interactive installations for over five years. Researching\, wandering\, photographing\, and creating together while interrogating the interconnectedness of environmental degradation\, and global corporatism\, and community response.\n\nSobel takes a more straightforward approach by helping us begin to grasp the reality of living in a world affected by climate change.  Her work described as “wilderness-based\, science-inspired”\, serves as a bridge\, connecting viewers to experiences that might seem too distant or unfolding too slowly for most people to comprehend firsthand. In doing so\, she not only raises awareness but also encourages dialogue about the pressing challenges our planet faces. Through her work\, Sobel facilitates a deeper understanding of the interconnection between humanity and the environment\, compelling us to reflect on our role in addressing these urgent issues.\n\nThese diverse approaches to creating art serve as powerful connections to the most critical and pressing environmental issues of our time. This engagement serves to deepen our understanding of these challenges from multiple perspectives\, including cultural\, social\, and scientific viewpoints.  \nFurthermore\, these approaches are not only meant to inform but also to inspire. They challenge us to reconsider our relationship with the planet and encourage us to take actionable steps toward sustainability.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Brothers and Uncles\, Kings and Typecutters
DESCRIPTION:Explore the evolution of the printed page through the prism of one remarkable family of scholar-printers. \n\nPrinting changed the speed and scale at which information circulated. Over a century\, scholarly printers competed to produce carefully edited editions. As they produced more and more\, they developed methods\, such as page-layout and indices\, to make their books easy to read\, and they created dictionaries and reference books so a reader could get more from their books.\n\nThe Estienne family of printers are among the most renowned and long-lasting printing houses of the era. Family links and investment in scholarly training helped them to sustain a business in the print trade for six generations in France and Switzerland.\n\nThe Special Collections Research Center holds nearly 80 imprints dating from the first years of the sixteenth century into the reign of Louis XIV. View nineteen examples chosen to show the breadth of the Michigan Estienne collection in an era of amazing change.\n\nImage: Detail from \"Polemōnos\, Himeriou\, kai allōn tinōn meletai\,\" by Henri Estienne\, Paris 1567. The Olive tree device is the best-known emblem of the Estienne house\, surviving in over a dozen forms. First used by Robert I in 1526\, it refers to a passage in Romans 11 that praises humility in the face of divine will.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Cathy Barry Art Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Cathy Barry has a profound connection to the natural world\, which has shaped her artistic journey. She focuses on expressing gratitude\, compassion\, and a sense of responsibility towards environmental protection. After years of working with traditional media such as oil\, acrylic\, and watercolor\, her art is transitioning to more sustainable materials. The pigments she uses in her collages are sourced entirely from plants\, all collected and processed by Cathy herself from various locations throughout Michigan. This natural paint has become a vital part of her expressive palette\, driving her to approach her work with a renewed sense of integrity and awareness of our interconnected ecosystem.\n\nIn her collages\, Cathy skillfully combines paper painted with her homemade botanical pigments and intricately punched shapes\, creating a distinctive micro-scale vocabulary. These miniature worlds are thoughtfully assembled within larger contexts\, challenging our perceptions of the universe and our place within it.\n\nRecently\, Cathy has embarked on a new adventure: creating art directly from plant materials. By collecting\, drying\, and weaving leaves\, she has developed an exciting rhythm in her process. Through simple weaving\, twining\, and basketry techniques\, she has deepened her enthusiasm for and connection to the plants surrounding her in her yard and neighborhood. This integration of materials with form and subject in her work evokes a serene wholeness that reflects nature's inherent wisdom. Additionally\, her journey has sparked a curiosity to explore the historical uses and roles of plants throughout history.\n\nCathy Barry is an artist and instructor living and working in Ann Arbor\, Mi. She is a Lecturer in the University of Michigan (UM) Stamps School of Art and Design\, the UM Program in the Environment and the UM Biological Station.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:ICE in the Heartland: Community Impacts of Worksite Immigration Raids
DESCRIPTION:ICE in the Heartland showcases a multifaceted project that gathers and disseminates the stories of communities impacted by immigration worksite raids with the aim of bringing underrepresented narratives to news media\, classroom\, and public discourse. This project comprises qualitative public health research conducted in impacted communities and visual arts generated from the research outcomes. Research teams of graduate and undergraduate students from the University of Michigan\, led by Professor William Lopez\, and the University of Iowa\, led by Professor Nicole Novak\, collaborated with a range of community members and organizers at sites of six large-scale immigration worksite raids that occurred in 2018 in Iowa\, Nebraska\, Ohio\, Tennessee\, and Texas. The researchers visited these sites\, spoke to advocates\, detainees\, their families\, and other community members. In conversation with the seventy-seven interviews\, artists Dalia Harris and Carolina Jones Ortiz generated ten images that comprise ICE in the Heartland. On display with the artworks are community member testimonies\, analysis on the public health detriments to immigration worksite raids and deportation\, insights to the artists’ methods\, and the curricular materials used in public outreach programs. \n\nHosted and sponsored by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Department of Women’s and Gender Studies\, U-M.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Art Exhibit- Closer: A look at the tiny world around us
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an exhibit featuring the photography of Joseph Ferraro\, free and open to the public at Matthaei Botanical Gardens.\n\n \n\nBIO\n\nJoseph is a conservation photographer living and working in southeast Michigan. In 2014\, using macro photography to explore his backyard garden\, he unknowingly began walking a naturalist’s path and documenting native pollinators and invertebrates. His large format prints of local invertebrates are currently on exhibit outside of the Belle Isle Nature Center\, with other works on exhibit inside the Center. With them\, he seeks to inspire viewers to take a closer look at the tiny world around us.\n\n \n\nArtist Statement\n\nTo me\, the little things matter.\n\nThrough my work as a photographer\, I share the unseen and overlooked world of nature that surrounds us. My focus is exploring the world of invertebrates and showcasing these creatures in their natural habitat.\n\nMy creative process has evolved into a moving mediation\, as I Slow down to observe\, document and connect with my subjects as we interact in the environment. Ultimately\, I seek to capture the unique beauty of creatures not usually perceived as beautiful and aim to create images that evoke emotion and curiosity. In so doing I strive to raise awareness of the importance of these creatures in our world and dispel any fears the viewer may have.\n\nInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/josephferraro/\n\nWeb: https://www.joseph-ferraro.com

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Fore-Site (Phase 1): The Stamps Gallery Pillar Project
DESCRIPTION:Phase 1 Opening Reception: September 18\, 6:30 – 8:30 p.m.\nFrom September 2025 through August 2026\, Stamps Gallery is partnering in a curatorial collaboration with two Ypsilanti-based\, artist-run project spaces led by Stamps alumni: C.Y.N.K. Studios\, directed by Sally Clegg (Lecturer III and Student Exhibition Coordinator\, MFA ’20) and Abhishek Narula (MFA ’20)\; and Sometimes Space\, directed by Nathan Byrne (Lecturer I\, MFA ’21). Each space hosts dozens of artists annually for exhibitions\, performances\, and events\, fostering experimental work and building community. For this project\, Byrne\, Clegg\, and Narula have been commissioned to reimagine the pillars on Division Street that flank the gallery. In response\, they've curated six artists to create new work for the pillars over three cycles:\nPhase 1 (September 12 - December 12) artists: Amelia Burns (Cranbrook MFA '23) and Erin McKenna (MFA '20)Phase 2 (January 12 - April 12) artists: Sally Clegg (MFA '20) and Kim Karlsrud (MFA '20)Phase 3 (May 12 - August 12) artists: Abhishek Narula (MFA '20) and Nathan Byrne (MFA '21)\nPhase 1 Curatorial Statement\nCurated by Sometimes Space: Amelia Burns (entry pillar)Curated by CYNK Studios: Erin McKenna (courtyard pillar)\nArtists Amelia Burns and Erin McKenna reimagine the Division Street pillars through digital collages rooted in memory\, landscape and shared environments. Burns arranges fragments of her own photographs into airy compositions where these pictorial remnants become enshrined by the artist’s vision of the sacred. McKenna draws from the language of quilting\, organizing her photos of mushrooms\, moss and lichen into vibrant geometric patterns which echo Ohio textile traditions. Both artists\, Midwestern women attentive to the nuances of place\, weave personal imagery into collective meaning. Together\, their works create spaces of reverence and connection.\nAmelia Burns: GODSPROMISESRISINGHIGHGODSPROMISESRISINGHIGH contains fragments of photographs I have made over years in various locations in the United States. Each fragment holds personal meaning for me. The exalted pieces of environments float together and create a visual smorgasbord of symbols\, denoting a capitalist world\, filled with tender moments and connections\, where all objects are made holy.\nErin McKenna: Mushroom TrailMushroom Trail reimagines the Ohio Star quilt block through a collage of photographs of mushrooms\, lichen\, and moss gathered during walks in my Appalachian forest home. I created small blocks of repeating patterns to build texture and color. Inspired by the Barn Quilt Trail\, the work honors Ohio’s yard art traditions. Like other local expressions\, from chainsaw-carved bears to the front porch goose\, it fosters a shared sense of pride of place\, and community.\nArtist Statements/Bios\nAmelia BurnsThrough my travels across nearly every U.S. state\, I document not only the natural world but also its entanglement with human influence. My work speaks to the loneliness\, humor\, beauty\, pain\, and joy that coexist within these spaces. The landscapes I create—whether photographic or collage-based—are imbued with a visceral connection to the physical environments I’ve passed through. They are a reprocessing of the cultural detritus that surrounds me\, transforming fragments into vignettes that explore both the darkness and resilience of humanity.\nAt its core\, my work explores the underworld of human experience\, grappling with the visceral tension between authenticity and artifice in contemporary Americana. It reflects the disgusting horror of capitalism\, the mysticism of my Irish Catholic upbringing\, and the profound solitude that fuels my process. The resulting images are landscapes of seeking\, filled with the pain\, glory\, and quiet resistance of life.\nAmelia Burns is a photographer\, collage artist\, curator and educator exploring the cultural and physical landscapes of the U.S.\, capturing the nuances of shared environments. She earned her BFA in Photography from Pratt Institute in 2005 and later completed her MFA at Cranbrook Academy of Art in 2023. Website / Instagram\nErin McKenna Erin McKenna is an interdisciplinary artist with a background in sculpture. Her practice embraces humor\, playful misuse\, and celebration as strategies to dismantle stereotypes and complicate binaries of construction and embellishment. With a feminist lens\, she explores the space where necessity meets excess\, highlighting the subversive potential of both. Her sculptures often pair gritty building materials with tactile fabrics\, generating tension between utility and ornament. Growing up in a perpetually unfinished home—a place of sawdust\, chop saws\, and improvisation—instilled in her a respect for visible labor\, inventive problem-solving\, and imperfection. Her process follows personal rules:\nno hierarchy of materialssubvert expected usecomplicate binaries\, stereotypes and associationsmisuse\, misapplyallow for variable arrangementsrepeat\, reiterate\, reuseconsider the subversive possibilities of the excessive\, fantastic\, and necessaryalways let the labor be visible\nMcKenna earned her BFA from Columbus College of Art &amp\; Design in 2012 and later completed her MFA at Stamps School of Art &amp\; Design at the University of Michigan. She recently moved back to the forest she calls home in Southeastern Ohio\, where she serves as Exhibitions Director at The Dairy Barn Arts Center\, hunts for mushrooms with her toddler\, and makes quilts.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:By Means of a Pencil
DESCRIPTION:October 9 – November 5\, 2025\nOpening Reception October 9\, 5:00-8:00 pm\nClosing Reception: November 2\, 2:00-5:00 pm\n\nThe U-M Duderstadt Center Gallery presents By Means of a Pencil a solo exhibition by artist and Stamps School of Art & Design LEO Lecturer I Nathan Byrne.\n\nBy Means of a Pencil brings together a body of work centered around the quirky and enigmatic Swiss author Robert Walser. In this exhibition poetic gestures and nods to Walser are able to flourish as visual forms and objects. The work comprises spontaneous and excessively durational works of drawing\, collage\, and sculpture.\n\nFor years\, I have been intrigued by the author Robert Walser’s  mark making which he referred to as his “pencil method” where he would sketch out stories in a radically miniaturized script on diminutive paper fragments. Walser’s pencil method began when he was experiencing severe writer’s cramp and: “hideously and frightfully hated his pen.” He goes on in a letter written in 1927 describing the freeing nature of this process: “I suffered a real breakdown in my hand on account of the pen\, a sort of cramp from whose clutches I slowly\, laboriously freed myself by means of the pencil.”\n\nJust as it was with Walser “by means of a pencil” I was able  to make peace with drawing by radically altering the process by which I approached the act itself. Eventually\, this became processes like my transcription drawings\, in which I write out an entire novel as a form of mark making.\n\nWhile this exhibition mines the Walser archive and the spirit of this author\, this work is just as much about me and my immersion in this “world of Walser.” It is about my own engagement with relationships between language and mark making\, language and sculpture\, language and longing.\n\nThis project was made possible by the generous support of Stamps School of Art & Design at the University of Michigan.\n\nPoster design by Sky Christoph.\n\nHours: 12 – 6 pm\, Tues. – Fri. & Sun.\n\nLocation: 2281 Bonisteel Blvd\, Ann Arbor\, MI 48109

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Cosmo-Astro Seminar | Measuring the Hubble Constant Without the Sound Horizon: A New Constraint from DESI
DESCRIPTION:The Hubble tension\, recently surpassing the 6σ level\, increasingly presents a challenge to the ΛCDM model. A key question is whether this tension stems from our use of the sound horizon as a standard ruler. In this talk\, I will present a new\, sub-2% measurement of the Hubble constant (H₀) that is independent of the sound horizon scale\, using data from the first data release of the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI). The analysis employs a power spectrum rescaling technique that marginalizes over the sound horizon information\, drawing instead on the matter-radiation equality scale as a standard ruler. Combining DESI’s full-shape galaxy clustering with uncalibrated post-reconstruction BAO and the CMB acoustic scale θ*\, along with various external sound horizon-free datasets\, results in highly robust constraints that are among the most precise to date from LSS. Looking ahead\, this measurement offers a new window on beyond-ΛCDM physics and the physical origin of the Hubble tension.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Special Physics Colloquium | Stringently Testing the Standard Model via Direct Encounters with a Single Electron’s Spin
DESCRIPTION:One hundred years after the discovery of electron spin\, the proportionality of the electron’s magnetic dipole moment and its spin makes possible what is arguably the most stringent test of the Standard Model (SM) and sensitive probes for physics beyond the SM. The electron magnetic moment\, in natural units of Bohr magnetrons\, is the most precise prediction of the SM and the most precisely measured quantity of any elementary particle. The quantum methods used for a recent measurement of the size of a single electron’s magnetic moment will be discussed.  To improve beyond the precision of 1 part in 10^{13}\, a quantum limited detector is being employed in a new apparatus and measurement\, with special relativity providing a quantum non-demolition coupling of the electron’s spin state to the detector. Comparing the electron and positron moments provides the opportunity to test the fundamental CPT invariance of the SM with leptons at an even higher precision.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Spin Centennial: Celebrating 100 Years of Spin at the University of Michigan
DESCRIPTION:One hundred years ago\, in 1925\, to explain puzzles in the observed spectra of atoms\, George Uhlenbeck and Samuel Goudsmit postulated the existence of a new intrinsic property of the electron\, which came to be known as spin. In 1926\, Uhlenbeck and Goudsmit began long illustrious careers at the University of Michigan Physics Department. The physics department at the University of Michigan\, and others around the world\, have continued to harness this revolutionary concept to advance science and technology across many fronts\, from fundamental science to medical imaging to quantum information.\n\nThroughout the 2025 Fall term\, a series of seminars\, colloquia\, and special events will be part of this celebration.\n\nColloquium 1:30-2:30 pm\nStringently Testing the Standard Model via Direct Encounters with a Single Electron’s Spin\nGerald Gabrielse\, Board of Trustees Professor in Physics/Director of CFP (Northwestern University)\n\nSpin Centennial 3:00-5:00 pm\nTalks for the general public on the history of spin\, fundamental physics\, and the applications of spin\, which impact everyone’s life every day and into the future\, with Introductory remarks by Dean Rosario Ceballo\, College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts (LSA)\n\nSpeakers from the U-M Department of Physics\nChristine Aidala\, Professor\nAaron Pierce\, Professor\nVanessa Sih\, Professor\nShankari Rajagopal\, Professor

SUMMARY:Recreational / Games:Celebrate Indigenous Video Games
DESCRIPTION:Play and learn from these video games to recognize Native American Heritage Month!\n\nNEVER ALONE (Kisima Inŋitchuŋa in the Iñupiaq language) was created about a decade ago by the Cook Inlet Tribal Council\, Inc.\, a tribal non-profit organization in Anchorage\, Alaska. The community noticed that tribal elders’ knowledge was not being passed to youth as traditions and ways of life\, from caribou hunting to the blanket toss\, weren’t continued. The CITC were seeking a way to connect with their youth and engage them using the tools of modernity. Their chosen medium: video games.\n\nWHEN RIVERS WERE TRAILS is a 2D adventure game in much the same style as Oregon Trails. In 2018 the Indian Land Tenure Foundation commissioned 20 Indigenous storytellers\, as well as Native musicians and artist Elizabeth LaPensée\, to create When Rivers Were Trails. This game\, which is free for anyone to download\, was created to educate Americans on the history of federal allotment policies. It was created by Native people for Native and non-Native people alike\, and we hope you come join us in playing!\n\nEach November our campus celebrates the histories\, cultures and contributions of Indigenous Americans\, and at U-M Library we offer access to a wide range of Indigenous-created works. Video games are accessible through our Computer and Video Game Archive.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CMENAS Colloquium Series. The Storied Gulf: Storytelling\, Migration\, and Masculinities
DESCRIPTION:The injustices of the Gulf visa sponsorship system and the harsh aspects of migrant life there are well documented. And yet\, the heavy influx of migrant labor from particular regions in South Asia to the Gulf states remains unabated. This leads to the question: If things are so bad\, then why do migrants keep coming? Some scholars have answered this question by putting forth an argument that migrants paint a rosy picture of Gulf life in their home cities\, and\, in so doing\, funnel their compatriots into exploitative labor arrangements abroad. Do migrants not tell stories of hardship in home cities? If they do\, why do those stories not dissuade aspiring migrants? I contend that centering prospective emigrant as discerning listeners helps us understand both the nuanced motivations for migration and why returnees tell the kinds of stories they do. I attend to the circulatory contexts of migrants’ Gulf stories in a small city in Pakistan\, and the gendered repertoire of characterological figures through which listeners evaluate them. Decades of circulation of men from this Pakistani city to the Gulf and back has produced going through the storied trials of Gulf life as a rite of passage to the status of adult manhood and masculine respectability. The storytelling about Gulf life in Pakistan is thereby structured by a masculinist discourse with the following idea at its core: since Gulf work is harsh\, only hard men are suited for it. This Gulf gauntlet subsumes stories of hardship within its own lore. The harder the rite\, the higher mettled the passenger.\n   \n   Salman Adil Hussain is a historical anthropologist of Indian Ocean mobilities\, and South Asian diasporas. His research specializations include borders and belonging\, masculinity\, transnational labor\, migrant racialization\, autoethnography\, storytelling\, humor\, and kinship. His dissertation\, Migrants at Home: Gulf Migrations\, Masculinities\, and the Politics of Return in Pakistan\, is the first monograph on Pakistani migrations to the Gulf in the past 30 years. It studies how masculinity structures key processes of migrations: migration brokerage\, sociality\, self-fashioning\, and return mobilities. His next project explores the racialization and surveillance of migrants—South Asians in the Gulf and U.S. Muslims—in a comparative framework.\n\nRSVP: https://myumi.ch/w9QNx\n\n   Co-sponsor:   GISC\n   \n\nAccommodation: If there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Gendered Spheres of Learning and Household Decision-Making over Fertility
DESCRIPTION:While men and women make joint decisions about fertility\, women give birth and are more likely to learn about a significant cost of childbearing—maternal health risk. Within couples in Zambia\, men have systematically lower awareness of maternal risk factors and higher desire for children than their wives. We develop a model in which information asymmetries between partners over maternal health risk can persist in equilibrium as the result of strategic incentives and can generate disagreement over fertility that cannot be resolved with transfers. To study the effect of communication barriers on fertility\, we design an experiment that varies whether the husband or the wife receives information about maternal health risk. One year after the intervention\, men told about such risk exhibit significant gains in knowledge\, report lower demand for children\, and communicate this information to their wives\, who also update their beliefs. Pregnancy falls significantly\, while transfers remain unchanged relative to the control group. Meanwhile\, when women are told about risk\, they update their beliefs\, but are unable to transmit the information to their husbands\, who do not change their demand for children. While pregnancy also falls among these couples\, the decline is accompanied by a significant reduction in transfers and support to the wife. When childbearing costs\, particularly those borne by one party\, cannot be easily communicated within the household\, targeting information can help overcome asymmetries and improve household decision-making.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Learning seminar in algebraic combinatorics: The various polyhedral realizations of g-vector fans
DESCRIPTION:Last week we introduced cluster algebra with principal coefficients\, and F-polynomials. We will pick up from the definition of g-vectors\, and talk about several different works on how to construct g-vector fans. In Jahn-Löwe-Stump\, the authors constructed the g-vector fan by common refinement of normal fans of Newton polytopes of F-polynomials. In Holhweg-Lange-Thomas\, they constructed the generalized associahedron (whose normal fan is the g-vector fan) by deleting inequalities of certain facets. In Bazier-Matte et al.\, the authors constructed the generalized associahedron by extending the construction of the kinematic associahedra in ABHY to all simply laced Dynkin quivers. In this talk\, we will try to give a brief survey of each construction\, illustrating them with a type A example.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Student Number Theory: Intertwining Operators and the R-group of Real Reductive Groups
DESCRIPTION:In this talk I’ll give an introduction to intertwining operators for real reductive groups. After setting up principal series representations\, I’ll construct the standard intertwining operator attached to the nontrivial Weyl element and explain its normalization and meromorphic properties. I’ll then describe how the finite R-group controls the commuting algebra and\, in particular\, determines the number of irreducible constituents at reducible parameters. The focus will be the concrete case of SL(2\,R) where the formulas can be computed explicitly and the appearance of the R-group is especially transparent. Time permitting\, I’ll indicate extensions to higher rank and briefly discuss how these operators inform the shape of local functional equations.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:MIPSE Seminar | Plasma Physics Modeling and Simulations of Electric Propulsion Over the Last Two Decades at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: \nThe first ion engines were launched into orbit in the 1960s but it was not until the 1990s that their commercial use began in the U.S.\, followed by the first NASA flight on Deep Space 1 in 1998. Hall thrusters (HTs) followed a similarly long trajectory from the lab to deep-space flight. Since the 1970s thousands of HTs have flown in near-Earth orbit\, yet it was not until NASA’s Psyche mission in 2023 that HTs were used as primary propulsion beyond lunar orbit. Two challenges contributed to this protracted path. First\, HTs are low-thrust\, high-exhaust-speed devices that achieve large ΔVs but must operate for years in space. Flight qualification in vacuum facilities can be prohibitively costly and time-consuming. Challenges in qualifying a technology by test alone are not unique to electric propulsion (EP). Certification of the U.S. nuclear weapons stockpile now relies on physics-based modeling and simulations (M&S) requiring large investments. The second challenge is that investment in M&S for EP has been limited. Their inherently complex physics prohibited the advancement of first-principles M&S tools to a level that could make major impact on development. Instead\, technology advancement depended largely on empirical scaling and laboratory testing. A focused effort on physics-based M&S began in the 2000’s in the EP Group of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL). In this presentation I will highlight achievements made at JPL in the M&S of plasmas in EP\, and discuss their impact on development\, maturation and flight qualification of EP for NASA deep-space missions.\n\nAbout the Speaker: \nDr. Ioannis (Yiangos) G. Mikellides is a Senior Research Scientist and Principal Engineer at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory. He received his Ph.D. in Aeronautical and Astronautical Engineering from The Ohio State University. In over three decades his theoretical investigations of applied plasma physics\, supported by extensive numerical simulation\, have spanned applications as diverse as high-pressure discharge chambers and hypersonic nozzles\, ablative thrusters\, magnetic nozzles in fusion propulsion\, MHD shocks\, rarefied EP plumes and astrophysical plasmas. He has developed OrCa2D and Hall2De\, two novel scientific plasma codes that have been supporting the qualification of hollow cathodes and HTs for NASA’s EP missions since he joined JPL in 2003. Hall2De has also been licensed to various institutions of government\, academia and the private sector nationwide. His theoretical work has led to notable advances in our understanding of EP plasmas such as the prediction of ion acoustic turbulence in cathode discharges and the development of the first principles of magnetic shielding in HTs. He has published more than 60 refereed articles in aerospace engineering\, applied physics\, planetary/space sciences and astrophysics journals\, and co-authored the 2023 book “Fundamentals of Electric Propulsion”. He is a Fellow of the AIAA and the recipient of multiple recognitions including the NASA Exceptional Engineering Achievement Medal and the JPL Lew Allen and Edward Stone Awards.\n\nThe seminar will be conducted in person\, with livestream in Zoom.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Algebraic Geometry seminar: Hodge theory of secant varieties of curves
DESCRIPTION:Secant varieties are classical objects in algebraic geometry\, with many of their properties\, such as their defining equations and singularities\, being of interest for a very long time. Recently there has been interest in the Hodge theory of these varieties. I will review some classical Hodge theory and briefly explain how these ideas lift to a suitable derived category. We will apply some of the well-known theorems in this setting to make explicit Hodge theoretic computations for higher secant varieties of curves. In particular I will compute their intersection cohomology and describe the so-called trivial Hodge module. We will then zoom in on the special case of secant varieties of rational normal curves. Here we are able to exploit the defining equations to describe the nearby and vanishing cycle sheaves on the secant varieties. This talk is based on the work in my PhD thesis.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Numerical Approach to Parameter Identifiability for DE Systems
DESCRIPTION:Modelled systems are often hard to tweak in a justifiable and effective way. Often changing some parameters makes it so adjusting others results in no change. Simultaneously pressing the brake and accelerator of a car can result in no measurable change of speed. An algorithmic method to find related parameters would help dimensionally reduce and understand models. So far we’ve found success with a tree-spanning algorithm that can group related parameters into smallest-possible groups. But the final aim is constructing an algorithm which approximates relevant parameter combinations\, giving modelers a detailed view of how to best fit their data.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:On approximate Nash equilibria in mean field games
DESCRIPTION:We introduce a L-infinity notion of approximate Nash equilibrium which\, unlike the standard one\, guarantees a uniform small departure of agent's performance from their maximum value. Our result covers situations where agents criteria depend on the conditional law and allow for controlled agent interactions.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Probability and Analysis Seminar: Lambda(p) Style Bounds in Orlicz Spaces Close to L_2
DESCRIPTION:In 2022\, Ryou proved a variant of Bourgain's celebrated Lambda(p) Theorem for Zygmund spaces for p > 2.  Iosevich and Mayeli stated the p=2 case as an open problem in their 2025 (ACHA) paper and stated that if solved\, it would have applications to signal recovery.  Limonova made some progress on the latter problem in 2023.  In our work\, we improve Limonova's result by a logarithmic factor\, and we show that the result cannot be improved using the set of probabilistic tools commonly used to solve this type of problem. \nOur work is an application of a general framework from Talagrand's textbook (2021).  A large component of the talk will be to advocate for the use of frameworks\, such as the latter\, as a possible problem-solving strategy where our work is a case study.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:A Letter to the Westside
DESCRIPTION:Join the Ginsberg Center and Dunbar Tower Films for a movie night focused on the history of Ann Arbor!\n\nA Letter to the Westside\, a documentary by Kameron Donald.\n\n“This documentary-style film delves into the rich history of Ann Arbor’s West Side\, formerly a vibrant center of the Black community. Once home to thriving Black-owned businesses—barbershops\, pool halls\, diners—and vital community spaces like the Dunbar Community Center\, this area played a pivotal role in the city's history. The documentary aims to illuminate this overlooked chapter\, giving voice to a community whose stories have been silenced and forgotten. The West Side’s uplifting\, ambitious\, and supportive environment enabled African Americans countless opportunities\, creating a foundation for growth and success. Many individuals from this area became trailblazers in their fields\, achieving historic milestones such as becoming the first Black judge\, teacher\, and principal in the region. Through personal stories and historical accounts\, this documentary honors the legacy of those who paved the way for progress and the community’s accomplishments and achievements. It highlights how this community’s spirit of unity and perseverance nurtured generations of leaders and innovators.\"\n\nThis event is open to students\, faculty\, staff & community members\, and an RSVP is required since space is limited. If you are not already affiliated with U-M\, you must first create a U-M friend account to use the RSVP system.\n\nThis movie night is hosted by the Ginsberg Student Advisory Board and co-sponsored by Ginsberg's Academic Partnerships and Community Teams. \n\n---\nPlease note: The movies selected for screening do not necessarily reflect the opinions of the Ginsberg Center or its affiliates\, and their inclusion does not constitute an endorsement of any particular viewpoint.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Consequence - Group Art Exhibition - Art as Environmental Activism
DESCRIPTION:This group exhibition is an in-depth exploration of the role of art as a powerful catalyst for environmental activism. At first glance\, these works each possess striking beauty. However\, a closer inspection reveals a profound and often unsettling depth that challenges one’s perceptions. \n\nThe artworks are imbued with many layers of meaning\, inviting us to engage critically with the themes presented and encouraging us to reflect on our often-fraught relationship with the natural world.   Through a variety of mediums and techniques\, these works prompt us to confront uncomfortable truths about climate change\, habitat loss\, and the disappearing biodiversity around us. \n\nCampbell’s captivating “Heatscape” series transforms what is often an intangible concept into the tangible realm by visually translating heat distribution data to depict the impact of urban design on climate.  This series offers a profound exploration of the intriguing phenomenon known as \"urban heat islands”\, a term that describes urban areas that absorb and radiate significantly more heat than their surrounding rural landscapes due to human activities and infrastructure.\n\n“Heatscape” invites us to engage in a deeper reflection about the profound impact that human ingenuity has wielded over the natural world\, serving as a visual reminder of our responsibility to urban design that is considerate to the environment and communities it impacts. This work challenges us to recognize the interplay between our lifestyles and the environment\, urging a dialogue about sustainable practices that could mitigate the effects of these heat islands.\n\nSnider’s work powerfully illustrates the remnants of industrialization\, capturing the unsettling essence of its aftermath. In his art\, we encounter an urban landscape that is strikingly devoid of human presence\, creating an almost haunting atmosphere. This absence of people amplifies the eerie feeling and serves as a warning about the enduring consequences of industrial progress. It prompts viewers to reflect on the environmental impact and the transformations that society has undergone\, urging us to consider what aspects of our world will persist in the wake of such change. Ultimately\, Snider’s poignant depictions challenge us to confront the stark reality of a landscape altered by human activity\, inviting contemplation on both the beauty and the desolation that can coexist in our modern environments.\n\nSandra Osip’s sculptures delve deeply into the juxtaposition of decay and destruction alongside the concepts of life and growth. Through her abstract structures\, she illustrates the profound effects climate change has on our urban landscapes and the planet as a whole. These pieces serve as a poignant reminder of the delicate balance between nature and human impact\, while Osip’s imaginative flowers evoke a sense of nostalgia and loss\, symbolizing the beauty of what has been irretrievably diminished in our world. By celebrating these natural forms\, she not only honors the richness of biodiversity but also raises awareness about the environmental crisis we face.\n\nCassells’ work not only celebrates a profound connection to nature and sustainable practices but also serves to illuminate the significant impact that climate change has on vulnerable communities. Through her art\, she investigates the intricate relationships between different environmental systems\, emphasizing how they are all interconnected. \n\nBy delving into these themes\, Cassells sheds light on the challenges faced by communities that often bear the brunt of climate change despite contributing the least to the problem. Her exploration encourages a deeper understanding of how environmental changes affect social structures and the lives of people in marginalized areas. In doing so\, she advocates for greater awareness and action to address these issues\, ultimately promoting a more sustainable and equitable future for all. \n\nShanna Merola’s photo-collages are informed by the stories of environmental justice struggles past and present.  Shanna Merola and Halima Afi Cassells collaborated on collage and interactive installations for over five years. Researching\, wandering\, photographing\, and creating together while interrogating the interconnectedness of environmental degradation\, and global corporatism\, and community response.\n\nSobel takes a more straightforward approach by helping us begin to grasp the reality of living in a world affected by climate change.  Her work described as “wilderness-based\, science-inspired”\, serves as a bridge\, connecting viewers to experiences that might seem too distant or unfolding too slowly for most people to comprehend firsthand. In doing so\, she not only raises awareness but also encourages dialogue about the pressing challenges our planet faces. Through her work\, Sobel facilitates a deeper understanding of the interconnection between humanity and the environment\, compelling us to reflect on our role in addressing these urgent issues.\n\nThese diverse approaches to creating art serve as powerful connections to the most critical and pressing environmental issues of our time. This engagement serves to deepen our understanding of these challenges from multiple perspectives\, including cultural\, social\, and scientific viewpoints.  \nFurthermore\, these approaches are not only meant to inform but also to inspire. They challenge us to reconsider our relationship with the planet and encourage us to take actionable steps toward sustainability.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Brothers and Uncles\, Kings and Typecutters
DESCRIPTION:Explore the evolution of the printed page through the prism of one remarkable family of scholar-printers. \n\nPrinting changed the speed and scale at which information circulated. Over a century\, scholarly printers competed to produce carefully edited editions. As they produced more and more\, they developed methods\, such as page-layout and indices\, to make their books easy to read\, and they created dictionaries and reference books so a reader could get more from their books.\n\nThe Estienne family of printers are among the most renowned and long-lasting printing houses of the era. Family links and investment in scholarly training helped them to sustain a business in the print trade for six generations in France and Switzerland.\n\nThe Special Collections Research Center holds nearly 80 imprints dating from the first years of the sixteenth century into the reign of Louis XIV. View nineteen examples chosen to show the breadth of the Michigan Estienne collection in an era of amazing change.\n\nImage: Detail from \"Polemōnos\, Himeriou\, kai allōn tinōn meletai\,\" by Henri Estienne\, Paris 1567. The Olive tree device is the best-known emblem of the Estienne house\, surviving in over a dozen forms. First used by Robert I in 1526\, it refers to a passage in Romans 11 that praises humility in the face of divine will.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Cathy Barry Art Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Cathy Barry has a profound connection to the natural world\, which has shaped her artistic journey. She focuses on expressing gratitude\, compassion\, and a sense of responsibility towards environmental protection. After years of working with traditional media such as oil\, acrylic\, and watercolor\, her art is transitioning to more sustainable materials. The pigments she uses in her collages are sourced entirely from plants\, all collected and processed by Cathy herself from various locations throughout Michigan. This natural paint has become a vital part of her expressive palette\, driving her to approach her work with a renewed sense of integrity and awareness of our interconnected ecosystem.\n\nIn her collages\, Cathy skillfully combines paper painted with her homemade botanical pigments and intricately punched shapes\, creating a distinctive micro-scale vocabulary. These miniature worlds are thoughtfully assembled within larger contexts\, challenging our perceptions of the universe and our place within it.\n\nRecently\, Cathy has embarked on a new adventure: creating art directly from plant materials. By collecting\, drying\, and weaving leaves\, she has developed an exciting rhythm in her process. Through simple weaving\, twining\, and basketry techniques\, she has deepened her enthusiasm for and connection to the plants surrounding her in her yard and neighborhood. This integration of materials with form and subject in her work evokes a serene wholeness that reflects nature's inherent wisdom. Additionally\, her journey has sparked a curiosity to explore the historical uses and roles of plants throughout history.\n\nCathy Barry is an artist and instructor living and working in Ann Arbor\, Mi. She is a Lecturer in the University of Michigan (UM) Stamps School of Art and Design\, the UM Program in the Environment and the UM Biological Station.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:ICE in the Heartland: Community Impacts of Worksite Immigration Raids
DESCRIPTION:ICE in the Heartland showcases a multifaceted project that gathers and disseminates the stories of communities impacted by immigration worksite raids with the aim of bringing underrepresented narratives to news media\, classroom\, and public discourse. This project comprises qualitative public health research conducted in impacted communities and visual arts generated from the research outcomes. Research teams of graduate and undergraduate students from the University of Michigan\, led by Professor William Lopez\, and the University of Iowa\, led by Professor Nicole Novak\, collaborated with a range of community members and organizers at sites of six large-scale immigration worksite raids that occurred in 2018 in Iowa\, Nebraska\, Ohio\, Tennessee\, and Texas. The researchers visited these sites\, spoke to advocates\, detainees\, their families\, and other community members. In conversation with the seventy-seven interviews\, artists Dalia Harris and Carolina Jones Ortiz generated ten images that comprise ICE in the Heartland. On display with the artworks are community member testimonies\, analysis on the public health detriments to immigration worksite raids and deportation\, insights to the artists’ methods\, and the curricular materials used in public outreach programs. \n\nHosted and sponsored by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Department of Women’s and Gender Studies\, U-M.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Art Exhibit- Closer: A look at the tiny world around us
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an exhibit featuring the photography of Joseph Ferraro\, free and open to the public at Matthaei Botanical Gardens.\n\n \n\nBIO\n\nJoseph is a conservation photographer living and working in southeast Michigan. In 2014\, using macro photography to explore his backyard garden\, he unknowingly began walking a naturalist’s path and documenting native pollinators and invertebrates. His large format prints of local invertebrates are currently on exhibit outside of the Belle Isle Nature Center\, with other works on exhibit inside the Center. With them\, he seeks to inspire viewers to take a closer look at the tiny world around us.\n\n \n\nArtist Statement\n\nTo me\, the little things matter.\n\nThrough my work as a photographer\, I share the unseen and overlooked world of nature that surrounds us. My focus is exploring the world of invertebrates and showcasing these creatures in their natural habitat.\n\nMy creative process has evolved into a moving mediation\, as I Slow down to observe\, document and connect with my subjects as we interact in the environment. Ultimately\, I seek to capture the unique beauty of creatures not usually perceived as beautiful and aim to create images that evoke emotion and curiosity. In so doing I strive to raise awareness of the importance of these creatures in our world and dispel any fears the viewer may have.\n\nInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/josephferraro/\n\nWeb: https://www.joseph-ferraro.com

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Quantum Research Institute | Quantum computing with atomic qubit arrays
DESCRIPTION:In-Person: Michigan Memorial Phoenix Project - PML2000\nZoom: https://umich.zoom.us/j/99333578305?jst=2\n\nAbstract:\nLarge arrays of neutral atoms are a leading modality in the race towards useful quantum computation. Systems with more than 1000 qubits in 2D arrays and gate fidelities approaching three nines are being developed by many academic and industrial groups. I will present recent progress at University of Wisconsin-Madison and Infleqtion with physical and logical qubit encodings. Interesting challenges remain in scaling the size and performance to the levels needed for quantum utility. Ultimately a modular approach to quantum computation will enable scaling to millions of qubits\, with inter-module connections enabled by photonic links. Recent results on entangling atoms with photons for scaling a modular architecture will be presented. \n\nBio:\nMark Saffman is a physicist working in the areas of atomic physics\, quantum and nonlinear optics\, and quantum information processing. His research team has been a pioneer in quantum computing with atomic qubits. They were the first to demonstrate a quantum CNOT gate for the deterministic entanglement of a pair of neutral atoms. This was done using interactions between highly excited Rydberg atoms. He is currently developing scalable arrays of neutral atoms for quantum computation\, communication\, and sensing applications. \nHe is the Johannes Rydberg Professor of Physics at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and has been recognized with an Alfred P. Sloan fellowship\, a Vilas Associate Award\, the WARF Innovation Award\, and is a fellow of the American Physical Society\, and Optica. He has been active in professional service including two decades as an Associate Editor at the Physical Review\, and is the director of The Wisconsin Quantum Institute. He also serves as Chief Scientist for Quantum Information at Infleqtion.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Stacey L. Kirby: The Bureau of Personal Belonging (Ann Arbor Edition)
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition Dates: September 27 - November 8\, 2025\nOpening Performances: September 27\, 1-5 p.m.Closing Performances: November 8\, 1-5 p.m.\nStacey L. Kirby’s The Bureau of Personal Belonging is a series of interactive performances set within immersive installations and activated by viewer participation. The work fosters dialogue on identity\, community\, and civil engagement. Through bureaucratic forms\, papers\, postures\, language\, and aesthetics\, audiences are invited to participate in respectful dialogues and playful interactions with the artist. As the 2025 Roman J. Witt Artist-in-Residence\, Kirby spent 12 weeks on campus from January through March of 2025 meeting with students\, faculty\, and staff from the Stamps School and across U-M. Based on these conversations\, Kirby devised a site-specific installation that seeks to amplify the voices of the U-M community\, uphold the value of democratic civic engagement\, and highlight the power of art in building solidarity and mutual respect.\nCurated by Srimoyee Mitra.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Fore-Site (Phase 1): The Stamps Gallery Pillar Project
DESCRIPTION:Phase 1 Opening Reception: September 18\, 6:30 – 8:30 p.m.\nFrom September 2025 through August 2026\, Stamps Gallery is partnering in a curatorial collaboration with two Ypsilanti-based\, artist-run project spaces led by Stamps alumni: C.Y.N.K. Studios\, directed by Sally Clegg (Lecturer III and Student Exhibition Coordinator\, MFA ’20) and Abhishek Narula (MFA ’20)\; and Sometimes Space\, directed by Nathan Byrne (Lecturer I\, MFA ’21). Each space hosts dozens of artists annually for exhibitions\, performances\, and events\, fostering experimental work and building community. For this project\, Byrne\, Clegg\, and Narula have been commissioned to reimagine the pillars on Division Street that flank the gallery. In response\, they've curated six artists to create new work for the pillars over three cycles:\nPhase 1 (September 12 - December 12) artists: Amelia Burns (Cranbrook MFA '23) and Erin McKenna (MFA '20)Phase 2 (January 12 - April 12) artists: Sally Clegg (MFA '20) and Kim Karlsrud (MFA '20)Phase 3 (May 12 - August 12) artists: Abhishek Narula (MFA '20) and Nathan Byrne (MFA '21)\nPhase 1 Curatorial Statement\nCurated by Sometimes Space: Amelia Burns (entry pillar)Curated by CYNK Studios: Erin McKenna (courtyard pillar)\nArtists Amelia Burns and Erin McKenna reimagine the Division Street pillars through digital collages rooted in memory\, landscape and shared environments. Burns arranges fragments of her own photographs into airy compositions where these pictorial remnants become enshrined by the artist’s vision of the sacred. McKenna draws from the language of quilting\, organizing her photos of mushrooms\, moss and lichen into vibrant geometric patterns which echo Ohio textile traditions. Both artists\, Midwestern women attentive to the nuances of place\, weave personal imagery into collective meaning. Together\, their works create spaces of reverence and connection.\nAmelia Burns: GODSPROMISESRISINGHIGHGODSPROMISESRISINGHIGH contains fragments of photographs I have made over years in various locations in the United States. Each fragment holds personal meaning for me. The exalted pieces of environments float together and create a visual smorgasbord of symbols\, denoting a capitalist world\, filled with tender moments and connections\, where all objects are made holy.\nErin McKenna: Mushroom TrailMushroom Trail reimagines the Ohio Star quilt block through a collage of photographs of mushrooms\, lichen\, and moss gathered during walks in my Appalachian forest home. I created small blocks of repeating patterns to build texture and color. Inspired by the Barn Quilt Trail\, the work honors Ohio’s yard art traditions. Like other local expressions\, from chainsaw-carved bears to the front porch goose\, it fosters a shared sense of pride of place\, and community.\nArtist Statements/Bios\nAmelia BurnsThrough my travels across nearly every U.S. state\, I document not only the natural world but also its entanglement with human influence. My work speaks to the loneliness\, humor\, beauty\, pain\, and joy that coexist within these spaces. The landscapes I create—whether photographic or collage-based—are imbued with a visceral connection to the physical environments I’ve passed through. They are a reprocessing of the cultural detritus that surrounds me\, transforming fragments into vignettes that explore both the darkness and resilience of humanity.\nAt its core\, my work explores the underworld of human experience\, grappling with the visceral tension between authenticity and artifice in contemporary Americana. It reflects the disgusting horror of capitalism\, the mysticism of my Irish Catholic upbringing\, and the profound solitude that fuels my process. The resulting images are landscapes of seeking\, filled with the pain\, glory\, and quiet resistance of life.\nAmelia Burns is a photographer\, collage artist\, curator and educator exploring the cultural and physical landscapes of the U.S.\, capturing the nuances of shared environments. She earned her BFA in Photography from Pratt Institute in 2005 and later completed her MFA at Cranbrook Academy of Art in 2023. Website / Instagram\nErin McKenna Erin McKenna is an interdisciplinary artist with a background in sculpture. Her practice embraces humor\, playful misuse\, and celebration as strategies to dismantle stereotypes and complicate binaries of construction and embellishment. With a feminist lens\, she explores the space where necessity meets excess\, highlighting the subversive potential of both. Her sculptures often pair gritty building materials with tactile fabrics\, generating tension between utility and ornament. Growing up in a perpetually unfinished home—a place of sawdust\, chop saws\, and improvisation—instilled in her a respect for visible labor\, inventive problem-solving\, and imperfection. Her process follows personal rules:\nno hierarchy of materialssubvert expected usecomplicate binaries\, stereotypes and associationsmisuse\, misapplyallow for variable arrangementsrepeat\, reiterate\, reuseconsider the subversive possibilities of the excessive\, fantastic\, and necessaryalways let the labor be visible\nMcKenna earned her BFA from Columbus College of Art &amp\; Design in 2012 and later completed her MFA at Stamps School of Art &amp\; Design at the University of Michigan. She recently moved back to the forest she calls home in Southeastern Ohio\, where she serves as Exhibitions Director at The Dairy Barn Arts Center\, hunts for mushrooms with her toddler\, and makes quilts.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CJS Noon Lecture Series | Japan's Mountain in Nepal: The First Ascent of Manaslu and Reconciliation with Postwar Asia
DESCRIPTION:Please note: This lecture will be held in person in Weiser Hall (10th Floor) and virtually on Zoom. The webinar is free and open to the public\, but registration is required. Once you've registered\, joining information will be sent to your email. Register for the Zoom webinar at: https://myumi.ch/mRJD4\n   \n   Historians have represented Japan’s first ascent of Manaslu (8\,163 meters) in the Nepalese Himalayas in 1956 as a vestige of militarism after defeat in World War II and occupation by the United States and its allies. This talk\, by contrast\, illuminates the significance of the triumph in elaborating peaceful postwar modes of engagement with Asia: knowledge production\, imperial diplomacy\, and humanitarianism.\n   \n   Miriam Kingsberg Kadia is a professor of history at the University of Colorado Boulder. She is the author of *Moral Nation: Modern Japan and Narcotics in Global History* (UC Press\, 2014) and *Into the Field: Human Scientists of Transwar Japan* (Stanford\, 2020)\, and the coeditor of *Drugs and the Politics of Consumption in Japan* (Brill\, 2023). Her current research is on the history of high-altitude mountaineering during the Cold War.\n   \n   This lecture is made possible with the generous support of the U.S. Department of Education Title VI grant.\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at cjsevents@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Wrongful Convictions in Michigan: Lessons from the First 15 years of the Innocence Project
DESCRIPTION:Professors David Moran and Bridget McCormack launched the Michigan Innocence Clinic at the Law School in 2009 to investigate and litigate claims of innocence by convicted prisoners in cases where DNA evidence is not available. In its first 15 years\, the clinic’s work resulted in the release of 45 people whose combined wrongful incarceration totaled more than 700 years. Professor Moran\, who retired as director of the clinic in 2024\, will discuss several cases in which the clinic won final exoneration for its clients and how these cases illustrate fundamental problems in the criminal justice system. Professor Moran holds undergraduate and graduate degrees in physics and mathematics and earned his J.D. from the U-M Law School. He has argued before the U.S. Supreme Court six times. In 2005\, the Innocence Network awarded him its Lifetime Achievement Award for his work in the Michigan Innocence Clinic.

DESCRIPTION:Panelists:\nDr. Ramaswami Mahalingam\, Barger Leadership Institute Professor\; Professor of Psychology \nDr. Odessa Gonzalez Benson\, Associate Professor of Social Work\; Associate Professor of Urban Planning\nDr. Julian Vasquez Heilig\, Professor of Educational Leadership\, Research\, and Technology\, Western Michigan University\; Distinguished Senior Advisor\, The Michigan Hispanic Collaborative\n\nModerator:\nDr. Zeinab Hachem\, Postdoctoral Fellow\, Department of Psychology\n\nAttitudes surrounding immigration remain deeply divided in the country. While many view immigration as a strength and support pathways to citizenship\, others see immigration as a challenge to national security and economic stability. According to the Pew Research Center\, public opinion is evenly split over the use of state and local law enforcement in deportation efforts. However\, the majority of Americans disapprove of ending Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for many immigrants who came to the United States escaping war or other disasters at home. Additionally\, 54% of Americans disapprove of increasing Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raids on workplaces where people who are in the U.S. illegally may be working. Immigration enforcement has been intensified\, including renewed efforts to roll back protections like DACA\, increase deportations and border security\, and reinstate travel bans and restrict asylum pathways. The political climate has led to increased fear and caution among immigrant communities. While the state of Michigan prohibits its law enforcement from stopping individuals based on immigration status\, some state legislators are pushing for increased state and federal cooperation.\n\nIn this panel\, participants will discuss the impact of intensified immigration enforcement on immigrant communities specifically\, and the University of Michigan community generally. Panelists will also answer questions such as “How can we support individuals from immigrant backgrounds?”

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Genuinely Robust Inference for Clustered Data
DESCRIPTION:Conventional methods for cluster-robust inference are inconsistent when clusters of unignorably large size are present. We formalize this issue by deriving a necessary and sufficient condition for consistency\, a condition frequently violated in empirical studies. Specifically\, 77% of empirical research articles published in American Economic Review and Econometrica during 2020–2021 do not satisfy this condition. To address this limitation\, we propose two alternative approaches: (i) score subsampling and (ii) sizeadjusted reweighting. Both methods ensure uniform size control across broad classes of data-generating processes where conventional methods fail. The first approach (i) has the advantage of ensuring robustness while retaining the original estimator. The second approach (ii) modifies the estimator but is readily implementable by practitioners using statistical software such as Stata and remains uniformly valid even when the cluster size distribution follows Zipf’s law. Extensive simulation studies support our findings\, demonstrating the reliability and effectiveness of the proposed approaches.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:IES Energy Seminar Series - The Social Impacts of Energo-Waste
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nIn this paper\, my co-author Sisty Basil and I explore the social impacts of energy-related detritus\, what we call “energo-waste\,” from failed or outmoded energy projects in rural Tanzania. The problem of electronic waste (e-waste) has captured public and scholarly attention\, especially in sites like Agbogbloshie in Accra\, Ghana with its dystopian vista of discarded computers\, televisions and other electronic trash. Energo-waste creates similar yet different problems and takes many different forms. Some can easily be classified as e-waste\, such as solar lanterns that no longer provide light\, power banks that no longer provide back-up power for mobile phones\, or batteries for solar panels that no longer store energy. These can accumulate in the corners of rooms or in trash pits behind homes to be buried or burned\, leaving a negative environmental impact either way. Others continue to mark landscapes with their presence: windmills and solar mini-grids that no longer produce power\, electric poles that no longer transmit or distribute power\, mini hydro projects decommissioned for being financially unviable. Far less obvious forms of energo-waste include the tens of thousands of acres appropriated from rural smallholders and transferred to foreign companies for the purpose of growing jatropha\, a crop once hailed as a clean biodiesel option but which quickly fell out of favor leaving large-scale land acquisitions sitting idle\; or the tens of thousands of acres of forest sequestered for carbon offset projects (REDD+) that similarly deprived local communities of their use but are now labeled “another failed conservation fad.” Drawing on long-term community-engaged work\, participant observation and interview data\, we ask: What are the social impacts of and responses to energo-waste? What harms and/or benefits does it produce\, and for whom\, both in the present and for the future?\n\nBiography:\nKelly Askew is the Niara Sudarkasa Collegiate Professor of Anthropology and Afroamerican & African Studies at the University of Michigan. Current research projects and publications focus on rural water and energy access\, postsocialist poetics\, pastoralism\, Indigenous political movements\, and land rights in Tanzania. She is also an award-winning documentary filmmaker.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Department of Astronomy 2025-2026 Colloquium Series Presents:
DESCRIPTION:\"Quest for the Most Distant Universe – Today and Beyond\"\n\nUncovering and characterizing the earliest systems in the universe is essential for addressing fundamental cosmological questions — including the emergence of the first galaxies and black holes (BHs)\, and the timeline of cosmic reionization. The advent of JWST has revolutionized our ability to detect and study galaxies from these early epochs\, now extending the frontier of confirmed systems to z ~ 20. At the same time\, submm/mm observations with ALMA are providing complementary insights into the cold dust and gas components that trace early star formation. In this talk\, I will present my recent efforts to explore the most distant universe through a synergistic approach combining JWST\, ALMA\, and gravitational lensing\, enabling the most sensitive and comprehensive investigations of the earliest phases of galaxy formation. My systematic JWST spectroscopic survey confirms the high abundance of z > 9 galaxies previously suggested by photometric studies\, and I will discuss possible origins of this surprising excess based on our initial characterizations. I will also introduce the first infrared luminosity function derived from the largest faint ALMA sample ever compiled\, allowing a direct estimate of the total (unobscured + dust-obscured) cosmic star formation history up to z ~ 8. Our joint JWST and ALMA deep follow-up observations of a strongly lensed early galaxy reveal that what appears as a single disk-like structure is resolved into at least 15 individual young massive star clusters with effective radii of 10–50 pc\, dominating ~70% of the galaxy’s total flux and embedded within a smooth rotating disk (V/σ ~ 3). These findings suggest that stellar feedback is remarkably weak at these epochs\, providing a plausible explanation for the enhanced star formation activity inferred from our rest-UV and FIR studies. At the end of my talk\, I will also introduce my ~300-hour Cycle 4+5 JWST treasury program\, Vast Exploration for Nascent\, Unexplored Sources (VENUS) — JWST’s first wide lensing-cluster survey. Designed to fully harness the power of gravitational lensing\, VENUS aims to uncover the faintest and earliest galaxies across cosmic time\, and I will present some of its initial outcomes showcasing the transformative potential of this new endeavor.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Bridging Simulations and Experiment to Unravel Electrochemically Driven Membrane Transport
DESCRIPTION:Ion channels\, transporters\, and redox-active membrane enzymes operate in dynamic environments shaped by fluctuating electrochemical gradients\, which drive the movement of charged substrates across biological membranes. Despite great progress\, uncovering the molecular mechanisms of transport—especially under nonequilibrium conditions—remains an outstanding challenge.\n\nIn this seminar\, I will introduce Multiscale Responsive Kinetic Modeling (MsRKM)\, a framework that integrates simulations and experiment to extract transport mechanisms consistent with molecular-level insights and macroscopic observations. By incorporating electrochemically responsive rate constants\, MsRKM allows direct comparison with current-voltage (I–V) profiles and predicts how mechanisms shift under varying conditions.\n\nOur findings show that chemical and electrical gradients—even when equal in Nernstian magnitude—drive fundamentally different transport behaviors. For example\, ClC-ec1 exhibits gradient-dependent mechanisms while the Shaker K⁺ channel requires gradient-shifting off-pathway flux. MsRKM also disentangles the physical origins of voltage- and concentration-dependent current profiles (I–V vs. I–μ) and explains directional flux (rectification) by linking ion binding site locations to voltage sensitivity. \n\nIn an era of rapid advances in computational and experimental techniques\, this work highlights the power of integrating simulation\, experiment\, and mechanistic modeling to uncover molecular mechanisms—providing new insight into how life operates under nonequilibrium conditions.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Thursday Seminar Series - Evolution in Space: Incorporating Geography into Statistical Methods for Population Genetics
DESCRIPTION:Seminar Summary - One of the fundamental goals of evolutionary biology is to quantify patterns of genetic diversity between populations and study the processes that shape them. However\, the development of key statistical methods in population genetics lags behind the generation of datasets that require them for analysis. In particular\, methods for studying population history\, structure\, admixture\, demography\, and selection in continuous space are still lacking\, leading to a gap in our ability to answer basic questions in evolutionary biology. This talk will celebrate Dr. Bradburd's promotion to tenure (woohoo!) and present several vignettes on how geography can be incorporated into population genetics to better understand the processes generating the diversity of life.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:GEOMETRY SEMINAR: How does the critical exponent see the geometry?
DESCRIPTION:Given a discrete isometry group action on the hyperbolic spaces\, the critical exponent of the group measures the exponential growth rate of its orbit. This quantity not only sees the dynamics of the quotient manifold but also constrains its geometry. I will present my joint work with Wang that if the critical exponent is very small\, the quotient manifold is geometrically finite. Then I will focus on how the quantity changes when we deform the Fuchsian representations in the Hitchin component of PSL(3\, R)\, which is joint work in progress with Islam\, Martone\, and Pozzetti.
