Each year we bring together students and community members for two fully staged productions of Gilbert & Sullivan operettas\, which are performed with orchestra at the Lydia Mendelssohn Theatre in downtown Ann Arbor.

Gilbert and composer Arthur Sullivan. The story takes place at the Tower of London\, where the heroic Colonel Fairfax is scheduled to be executed the following morning on questionable grounds. The Colonel’s heirs will be disinherited if he dies unmarried\, and so he finds a short-term bride in the strolling player\, Elsie Maynard – much to the chagrin of her infatuated traveling partner\, the jester Jack Point.

Sr. Helen will be introduced by Ashley Lucas\, Director of the Prison Creative Arts Project at the University of Michigan\, and joined in conversation by Rev. Nancy S. Lynn. A Q&A and book signing will follow.\n\nThe event is free and open to the public\, though a free general admission ticket is required. A limited number of book bundle tickets are also available\, and these include a hardcover copy River of Fire\, reserved general admission seating at the front of the venue\, and signing line priority (note that for parties wishing to sit together in this reserved area\, each member must purchase a book bundle ticket).\n\nCopies of River of Fire and a selection Sister Helen's previous books will be available for purchase for all guests. Any person with books to sign may join the signing line\, following all Book Bundle guests.\n\nPlease note that FUMC's sanctuary is not air-conditioned. Guests are welcomed and encouraged to bring personal fans if it proves to be a particularly warm evening.\n\nParking in downtown Ann Arbor can be difficult. Surface spots are sparse\, but a detailed map of available (and walkable) parking structures can be found here.\n\nAbout the Book: In this revelatory\, intimate memoir of her childhood\, her spiritual evolution\, and how she became “lit” to her crusade\, Sister Helen chronicles her journey from one who prayed for God to solve the world’s problems to one engaged full-tilt\, hands-on\, in the work to transform societal injustices. She writes about growing up in a well-off Baton Rouge family\, one that still employed black servants in the racially segregated South\, and how she joined the Sisters of St. Joseph at the age of eighteen. Life in the novitiate\, which aimed at spiritual holiness\, set strict boundaries of separation from the (sinful) “world” – but all that changed in the wake of Vatican II\, which brought the winds of change in the Catholic Church. Inspired by Catholic activists such as Dorothy Day in the inner city and Jesuit priests who went to prison for destroying draft files in opposition to the Vietnam war\, Sister Helen started to immerse herself in the struggle of poor people in New Orleans forced to live on the margins of society. River of Fire is at turns honest and humorous\, and she writes openly about her friendships with other women who have inspired and nurtured her\, as well as a close friendship with a priest— obsessively intent on marrying her—and how these relationships challenged her vocation in “new territory of the heart” and propelled her further into deepening both her life in the Sisterhood and her engagement in social justice\, where she is today.\n\nRiver of Fire is a story of faith and spirituality\, doubt and belief\, addressed to believers\, agnostics\, and “nones” alike. It tells about “catching on fire” to purpose and passion. Accessible\, humorous\, luminous and on point for these polarized times when awakened social conscience and citizen action have never been more needed\, Sister Helen shows us how to live a spiritual life that is wide awake to the sufferings and creative opportunities of our world.\n\nHelen Prejean\, CSJ\, is the author of the #1 national bestseller Dead Man Walking. A member of the Congregation of St. Joseph\, she has appeared on 60 Minutes\, Frontline\, The Oprah Winfrey Show\, ABC's World News Tonight\, The Rachel Maddow Show\, Democracy Now!\, Crossfire\, NBC's special series on the death penalty\, and NPR's All Things Considered\, and has been featured in The New York Times Magazine\, USA Today\, Los Angeles Times\, and The New York Review of Books.\n\nAbout First United Methodist Church: At First United Methodist Church of Ann Arbor\, we welcome everyone of every ability!

All roles are available for SATB principals and chorus\; cast will be selected from the audition pool with no pre-casting. All are welcome to audition\, including students\, faculty / staff\, and general community members of the Ann Arbor / Southeast Michigan area. To sign up for an audition time you may either attend the UMGASS Mass Meeting at 7:00 pm on Sunday\, September 8th at the Michigan League\, or e-mail umgassexec@umich.edu to have a member of the board sign you up by proxy. Walk-ins are also welcome\; please arrive before 9:00 pm if you plan to walk-in. Callbacks (if necessary) will be held on the evening of Thursday\, September 12th.\n \nPlease prepare ~32-64 bars of a selection from musical theater\, comic opera\, or opera (in English)\, and provide a legible copy for the accompanist. Be prepared to read selections from the libretto if you are interested in a speaking role. There will be no dance audition for this production. Rehearsals will average two days per week between Sunday afternoon and Thursday evening for both chorus and principals. Production dates are December 5 – 8\, 2019\, at the Lydia Mendelssohn Theater in the Michigan League\, with full staging and full orchestra.\n\nThe University of Michigan Gilbert & Sullivan Society (UMGASS) was founded in 1947 and is the oldest student-run society nationwide dedicated to performing the operettas of Sir William Gilbert and Sir Arthur Sullivan. Each year we bring together students and community members for two fully staged productions of Gilbert & Sullivan operettas\, which are performed with orchestra at the Lydia Mendelssohn Theatre in downtown Ann Arbor. The quality of our productions sets a high standard for community G&S companies\, and our performances\, particularly of the lesser-known works of the canon\, are benchmarks for similar organizations around the country and the world. \n​\nWe’re proud to be a great place for future performing arts professionals as well as a creative outlet for students\, professors\, and community members of all ages looking to blow off steam and have a good time participating in a great show!\n\n\nThe Yeomen of the Guard was the 11th collaboration between librettist W.S. Gilbert and composer Arthur Sullivan. The story takes place at the Tower of London\, where the heroic Colonel Fairfax is scheduled to be executed the following morning on questionable grounds. The Colonel’s heirs will be disinherited if he dies unmarried\, and so he finds a short-term bride in the strolling player\, Elsie Maynard – much to the chagrin of her infatuated traveling partner\, the jester Jack Point. Meanwhile\, the Colonel’s friends and admirers work for his release – or for his escape\, if necessary. Will the Colonel\, his impetuous marriage\, and the broken-hearted jester all survive until the final curtain? This time there will be no last-minute topsy-turvy revelation to prevent the story’s dramatic conclusion.\n\nYeomen of the Guard will be directed by David Andrews\, who most recently directed UMGASS’s 2018 production of The Grand Duke\, and who will be directing with UMGASS for the eighth time\, among his 22 semesters with the group. Music Director for this production will be Ezra Donner\, a U-M alumnus with a Doctor of Music degree from Indiana University\, who conducted previous UMGASS productions of The Mikado\, Patience\, HMS Pinafore\, and The Pirates of Penzance between 2015 and 2017.

The materials collected in this exhibit\, all held in the Special Collections Research Center\, showcase not only the variety\, beauty\, and originality of turn-of-the-century print-making\, but also new ideas about what a magazine can do: namely\, create distinctive communities around avant-garde ideas outside of mainstream channels. The communities imagined in these magazines are sometimes explicitly political or aesthetic\, but more often both combine in writers’ and artists’ resistance to mass-market\, industrial\, bourgeois\, and nationalist print cultures.\n\nThe magazines in this exhibit are mostly American and British\, but many are distinctively cosmopolitan\, crossing borders to engage with international movements like socialism\, decadence\, and modernism in their attempts to create an audience united by aesthetic and political ideals rather than nationality. Although the little magazines’ resistance to mainstream journalism shortened their lifespan and restricted their circulation\, their experimental approach has had a lasting impact on our sense of magazines as flexible aesthetic and social media.

In the most recent granting period\, we have carried out longitudinal analysis of distinctive shear stress response to pulsatile and oscillatory stress corresponding to normal and disturbed flow in blood vessels. Our studies have provided fundamental insights into temporally regulated mechanisms as well as a systems-level view of stress response. Our key findings also included implications of long noncoding RNA molecules – LEENE and LINC341 - which appear to have dramatic consequences on endothelial homeostasis. The regulation by LINC RNAs entails the coupling between KLF4 and genes involved in endothelial function. In addition\, we explored the interplay between endothelial cells and macrophages in atherogenesis. These studies reveal a novel mechanisms in which the transcription factor KLF4 regulates the enzyme cholesterol-25-hydroxylase and the nuclear hormone receptor Liver X Receptor. Our key findings indicate that KLF4 transactivates cholesterol-25-hydroxylase and liver X receptor\, thereby promoting the synergistic effects between ECs and macrophages to protect against atherosclerosis susceptibility. \n\nAcknowledgements: Supported by NHLBI Grants R01HL106579 and HL108735\; Collaborative projects with Drs.

Religious devotion in ancient Kush (a region located in modern-day northern Sudan)\, involved pilgrimage and leaving informal marks on temples\, pyramids\, and other monumental structures. These graffiti are found in temples throughout the later (“Meroitic”) period of Kush\, when it bordered Roman Egypt. They represent one of the few direct traces of the devotional practices of private people in Kush and hint at individuals’ thoughts\, values\, and daily lives. This exhibition explores the times and places in which Kushite graffiti were inscribed through photos\, text\, and interactive media presentations. At the heart of the show are the hundreds of Meroitic graffiti recently discovered in a rock-cut temple by the Kelsey expedition to El-Kurru in northern Sudan.\n\nCurators: Geoff Emberling and Suzanne Davis\n\nView the online exhibition:\nhttp://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/graffiti-el-kurru/ UID:63992-16059342@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/63992 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:AEM Featured,Africa,Archaeology,Exhibition,Museum LOCATION:Kelsey Museum of Archaeology CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190827T161239 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190912T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190912T150000 SUMMARY:Fair / Festival:Grand Rapids Community College Visit DESCRIPTION:If you are interested in transferring to the College of LSA at the University\, come talk to Nick Turinsky on the 3rd floor Student Center Building.

By the 18th century\, their political economies and political beliefs yielded powerful kingdoms. Colonial political mythology rests on the notion that early Europeans ‘set up a country bare’ and devoid of civilization. The early history of South Africa reveals a far more complex past.\n\nDr. Jimenez is an LSA Collegiate Fellow in the Department of History at the University of Michigan. She received her Ph.D. from Northwestern University in 2017. Her research uses comparative historical linguistics to recover the undocumented past. She is interested in the ways southern African speech communities crafted political beliefs and practices over several centuries\, how these beliefs shaped gendered and generational social relations\, and the ways enduring ideas shaped the rise of centralized kingdoms.\n\nThis is the first in a six-lecture series. The subject is South Africa: Past\, Present\, and a Look Forward. The next lecture will be September 19\, 2019. The title is: Is Democracy Alive and Well in South Africa?

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.

During these decades\, the notion that abstraction was a purely formal and American art form\, concerned only with timeless themes disconnected from the present\, was met with increased skepticism. Women artists and artists of color began to actively and assertively explore abstraction’s possibilities. The artworks in Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics: The 1960s and 1970s demonstrate both radical and disarming changes in how artists worked and what they thought their art was about. Their new formal and intellectual strategies—seen here across large-scale and miniature work—dramatically transformed the practice of abstraction in the 1960s and 1970s in a politically shifting American landscape.\n\nUMMA gratefully acknowledges the following donors for their generous support:\n\nLead Exhibition Sponsors: University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\n\nExhibition Endowment Donors:  Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and Robert and Janet Miller Fund\n\nUniversity of Michigan Funding Partners: Institute for Research on Women and Gender\, School of Social Work\, Department of Political Science\, and Department of Women's Studies UID:63803-15884059@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/63803 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Exhibition,Museum,Politics,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - A.

In place of visible objects\, each plinth is equipped with a speaker from which we hear the word “thing” sung—edited out of and isolated from a range of pop songs. The result is an amusing and thoughtful exploration of language\, meaning\, and the conventions of museum presentation and spectatorship.\n \nThe installation\, like much of Berlin-based artist Ceal Floyer’s art\, is characteristically austere\, but its visual simplicity masks a more complicated message—often a wry cerebral twist the artist creates through language-based symbols and aesthetic devices. Floyer’s work is rooted in conceptual art\, in which the idea\, delivered through words or acts that undercut or supersede formal qualities\, is the essence of the artwork.\n\nLead support  for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan College of Engineering and the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Penny W.

Working at the turn of the twentieth century\, Schiele challenged the classical conventions of the day producing emotionally charged—often unsettling—drawings and watercolors depicting landscapes\, portraits\, and nudes. Two retired U-M professors recently gifted four works of art by Schiele to UMMA. Throughout their lifetimes\, Frances McSparran (English language and literature) and the late Ernst Pulgram (Romance and classical linguistics) collected over forty Austrian and German Expressionist works\, donating many of them to the Museum. The three watercolors and one drawing on view in this special installation complement the couple’s previous gifts of works by Schiele and his contemporaries Oskar Kokoschka\, George Grosz\, and Gustav Klimt\, reuniting these important works that together provide important insights into this tumultuous period in European history.        \n\n UID:63428-15694210@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/63428 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,European,Exhibition,History,Language,Literature,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - The Connector CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190909T113308 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190912T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190912T120000 SUMMARY:Social / Informal Gathering:Schokoladenstunde DESCRIPTION:All students at all levels are welcome to come and chat and play games in German (e.g. Tabu etc.). \"Schokoladenstunde\" will be facilitated on Tuesdays by Silvia Grzeskowiak\, and on Thursdays by Mary Gell or sometimes Veronica Williamson.\n\n\"Schokoladenstunde\" will take place in the comfortable seating area between the two computer classrooms in the Language Resource Center.

Japanese composed themes and game audio techniques from the 70s and 80s are still used in modern games and even played in concert halls. This music has become one of Japan’s most notable exports to the world. In this presentation\, Dr. Thompson will lead a journey through some of the most famous and influential video game music that he enjoyed during his childhood in the early days of game audio\, and then turn to more recent topics\, including recent research on the influence of video game music on piano study in Japan.\n \nMatthew Thompson\, DMA — collaborative piano\, is Assistant Professor of Music at the University of Michigan School of Music\, Theatre & Dance. As a pianist\, Thompson has performed with operatic celebrities like Thomas Hampson\, Golden Mask winner Vince Yi\, and musical theatre gurus like Tony Award winner\, Gavin Creel. Equally comfortable collaborating with instrumentalists\, Thompson’s most recent recording project\, Japonica\, is comprised of Japanese composed oboe/piano duos with recent U-M alumnus\, Dr. Alex Hayashi. Thompson’s research interests in game audio pedagogy have garnered international attention\; he presents regularly nationally and serves on the advisory board for GameSoundCon and a committee member for the North American Conference on Video Game Music.\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.

We need to consider aspects of interaction among people under nonotice disaster for planning with evacuation demand. This seminar examines the effect of social interaction on discrete choice during the network formation process. The primary objective is to evaluate influence on risk regarding from others in greater detail while considering how influencers and network structures affect one-to-one interactions. This talk examines an analytical framework for simultaneous evaluation of social interaction and social network formation. The framework is well suited to dynamic disaster situations because local interaction heavily influences human decision-making\, and because network formation changes over time.\n\nJunji Urata is an assistant professor in Department of Civil Engineering at University of Tokyo.

This model is being used with some success by the Process Stratigraphy team at ExxonMobil to generate stratigraphic models for deepwater environments of deposition. The mathematical model consists of a system of nonlinear hyperbolic PDEs\, with an additional so-called Exner equation for modeling the flow-bed sediment exchange and their bedload transport. The Exner equation plays a key role since a (slow time scale) change in the gradient of the bed influences the (fast time scale) momentum of the flow. The transport equations\, along with closure models for sediment transport\, TKE balance\, and water entrainment\, are solved using a first-order finite-volume method with a HLLC approximate Riemann solver and integrated using an explicit Euler scheme. The model shows the emergence of self-organized patterns in the deposits\, including the creation of bedforms\, channel formation\, and avulsions\, consistent with observations of modern systems and lab experiments. These occur even with uniform boundary conditions and symmetric initial conditions. The initial disturbances that trigger these mechanisms are ostensibly sourced by floating-point roundoff errors. An ensemble of simulations with slightly different initial conditions are used to analyze statistics on shapes of geomorphic elements and grain size distributions. The objective is to assess whether and under what conditions such a numerical model can be predictive and quantify the uncertainty in the results arising due to the irreducible chaos in the dynamical system.\nBio: Ramanathan Vishnampet is a Computational Data Scientist at the Global Business Lines Analytics & Optimization group at ExxonMobil Upstream Integrated Solutions.

Sequential design for stochastic simulation experiments\n\nAbstract: \nWe investigate the merits of replication\, and provide methods that search for optimal designs (including replicates)\, in the context of noisy computer simulation experiments. We first show that replication offers the potential to be beneficial from both design and computational perspectives\, in the context of Gaussian process surrogate modeling. We then develop a lookahead based sequential design scheme that can determine if a new run should be at an existing input location (i.e.\, replicate) or at a new one (explore). When paired with a newly developed heteroskedastic Gaussian process model\, our dynamic design scheme facilitates learning of signal and noise relationships which can vary throughout the input space. We show that it does so efficiently\, on both computational and statistical grounds. In addition to illustrative synthetic examples\, we demonstrate performance on two challenging real-data simulation experiments\, from inventory management and epidemiology.\n\nBio:\nRobert Gamacy is a Professor of Statistics in the College of Science at Virginia Polytechnic and State University (Virginia Tech).

They are caused by the geoelectric field which is set up from rapid variations in the geomagnetic field (dB/dt) and the conductive nature of the ground. GICs pose a challenge to forecasters due to their regional variability resulting from the complex and dynamic spatiotemporal behaviour of the ionospheric currents\, and/or the regional variability of the ground conductivity. In many cases\, both of these effects are important\, making the spatial structure of the geoelectric field very complex.\n\nIn this seminar\, the challenges associated with understanding and predicting the regional variability of GICs are discussed. A case study of the September 2017 storms is reviewed\, in which unusually large GICs in the Finnish natural gas pipeline were recorded. Following this\, statistical results are shown which quantify the spatial variation of dB/dt on spatial scales of approximately 500km. We also examine the potential contribution from localised conductivity features on GICs. The seminar is concluded with a discussion of ongoing research followed by open questions/discussions.

Nonetheless\, in hindsight it has come to be defined by its stylistic innovations (for example\, the use of location rather than studio\, and of non-professional actors). As a result\, the critical bibliography on the topic deals extensively with individual films\, the auteurs\, and with matters of form and content (the introduction of the perspective of the subaltern classes)\, the contribution of the musical score to the emotional and intellectual impact of the films has been given much less attention.\nThe purpose of this paper is that of beginning to address that lacuna.\n\nJoseph Francese is University Distinguished Faculty at Michigan State University\, Series Editor of “Studi di italianistica moderna e contemporanea nel mondo anglofono/Studies in Modern and Contemporary Italianistica in the Anglophone World” (a monograph series published by Firenze University Press) and Senior Editor emeritus of ITALIAN CULTURE (2003-2018). He is the author of numerous articles and chapters on topics in Renaissance and contemporary literature and film (including an essay on the influence of Cesare Zavattini on Latin American cinema)\, and has written monographs on Sciascia\, Pasolini\, postmodern narrative\, Italian cultural politics in the 1950s\, and the fictions of Eco\, Consolo\, and Tabucchi.

It will show that there is a good historical reason why\, in the words of a contemporary reviewer\, the characters of this novel could be described as “a number of automatons moving about\,” “tattooed with various characteristics”: nodes in a social network\, they are the literary\nembodiment of a conception of personhood as mobile\, extrinsically defined\, and combinatory. Characters in these novels are not the fundamental units of social meaning that earlier nineteenth-century novelistic protocols would lead us to expect but are instead like atoms in a compound or letters in a word\; they form variable combinations with others\, and it’s the combinations that matter. Henderson will show that this focus on clusters of people rather than singular individuals has its historical grounding in the logic of late Victorian capitalism\, an abstract logic of ramifying networks in which meaning and value inhere less in particular people or things than in their links to other people and things. As we will see\, that logic is epitomized in combinatorics\, the study of network ramification. Henderson argues that combinatorics is in fact the mathematical subfield of late Victorian capitalism: it both reflects and reinforces a logic of abstraction\, combination\, and expansion. It is fitting then that Dickens implements this logic in the “character system” of Our Mutual Friend\, his great novel on finance capitalism. This novel\, as the title suggests\, is devoted to understanding persons in terms of networks\, which it represents as the ethically suspect framework of finance capitalism.\n\nProfessor Henderson's research centers in nineteenth-century British culture. She is particularly interested in exploring formal similarities between literary arts\, visual arts\, and sciences. Her most recent book\, Algebraic Art: Mathematical Formalism and Victorian Culture (Oxford: Oxford University Press\, 2018)\, traces the influence of mathematical formalism on Victorian literature and visual art. Other recent articles include “The Physics and Poetry of Analogy” (Victorian Studies 56:3\, Spring 2014) and “Symbolic Logic and the Logic of Symbolism” (Critical Inquiry 41:1\, Autumn 2014). \n\nProfessor Henderson received her PhD in English from the University of Pennsylvania in 1991. She was an Associate Professor of English at the University of Michigan from 1997-2003. Her academic distinctions include the following: Guggenheim Fellow (2012-13)\, ACLS Fellow (2012-13)\, Michigan Humanities Award (1999)\, Bredvold Prize (1996)\, and Michigan Society of Fellows (1991-1994).\n\nCo-sponsorship for this event is generously provided by the Michigan Society of Fellows\, the Department of Comparative Literature\, and the Institute for the Humanities.

Encapsulation with a 2D dielectric (hexagonal boron nitride\, hBN)\, and more recently the use of single-crystal graphite top and bottom gates have decreased the electronic disorder to a level suitable for the to study fragile and exotic strongly correlated states. Additionally\, control of twist angle between closely-matched crystal lattices allows for unique control of electronic properties\, leading to the “Hofstadter butterfly” and more recently unconventional superconductivity. I will describe newly discovered exotic fractional quantum Hall states and a class of related states called fractional Chern insulators\, both in high quality graphene heterostructures. These measurements show that graphene is an intriguing platform for realizing new topological and fractional phases\, and opens new routes towards realizing interesting quantum phase transitions and manipulating non-abelian quasiparticles for quantum computation.\n UID:66185-16719558@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/66185 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Physics,Science LOCATION:West Hall - 335 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190906T085908 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190912T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190912T173000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Communication & Media Speaker Series DESCRIPTION:Current Controversies in Sports\, Media\, and Society sheds light on how various issues\, including racism\, sexism\, ageism\, religion\, politics\, and more\, are depicted in sports media. The lecture will present research showcasing how sports media representations of athletes can influence both American culture and the individuals who consume said media. \n\nCynthia Frisby is a nationally-recognized authority on media portrayals of minorities\, athletes\, women and teens. Frisby studies how media messages contribute toward creating or maintaining stereotypes and biases against minorities\, athletes\, women and teens. Among other topics\, she has investigated the coverage of black male athletes by magazines and news websites from 2002-2012 and demonstrated that news stories involving instances of crime or violence were more heavily covered when they involved black athletes.\n\nFrisby's enthusiasm for her research is reflected clearly in the classroom\, where she has won numerous awards for excellence in teaching. In 2002 the University of Missouri awarded her one of its highest teaching honors\, the William T. Kemper Fellowship. Student-athletes recognized her outstanding teaching by naming her one of the four Most Inspiring Professors on the MU campus in 2007. Several Mizzou '39 honorees have named Frisby as their mentor. Mizzou '39 honors outstanding seniors for their academic achievements\, leadership and service.\n\nFrisby earned her doctorate degree and her master's degree from the University of Florida's College of Journalism and Mass Communications. She joined the Missouri School of Journalism faculty in January 1998 and is a full professor of strategic communication with a joint appointment in the communication department in the College of Arts and Science.

But courtship in many species is more like a negotiation than an advertisement\, thus in addition to elaborate signals\, success in courtship may require tactical skills. These skills may include the ability to choose a flattering display site\, respond appropriately to female courtship signals\, and adjust display investment in response to the marketplace of other males and females. My lab has been investigating courtship negotiations in greater sage-grouse\, which mate in an open marketplace of competing males and choosing females (the lek). I will discuss experiments using robotic females to investigate courtship interactions between the sexes.

Both artists explore the boundaries between cybernetics and organism\, defend the freedom of self-design\, and believe that embracing our nonhuman entities can bring us closer with the organic worlds of animals\, nature\, and the cosmos. Together\, Ribas and Harbisson advocate on behalf of cyborgs worldwide through the Cyborg Foundation. Founded in 2010\, the foundation is committed to the self-actualization of cyborg identities\, trans-species rights\, and the promotion of cyborg art. An avant-garde artist\, Ribas is best known for developing Seismic Sense\, an online seismic sensor implanted in her feet that allows her to perceive earthquakes taking place around the planet — and on the moon — through vibrations in real time.

The materials collected in this exhibit\, all held in the Special Collections Research Center\, showcase not only the variety\, beauty\, and originality of turn-of-the-century print-making\, but also new ideas about what a magazine can do: namely\, create distinctive communities around avant-garde ideas outside of mainstream channels. The communities imagined in these magazines are sometimes explicitly political or aesthetic\, but more often both combine in writers’ and artists’ resistance to mass-market\, industrial\, bourgeois\, and nationalist print cultures.\n\nThe magazines in this exhibit are mostly American and British\, but many are distinctively cosmopolitan\, crossing borders to engage with international movements like socialism\, decadence\, and modernism in their attempts to create an audience united by aesthetic and political ideals rather than nationality. Although the little magazines’ resistance to mainstream journalism shortened their lifespan and restricted their circulation\, their experimental approach has had a lasting impact on our sense of magazines as flexible aesthetic and social media.

Religious devotion in ancient Kush (a region located in modern-day northern Sudan)\, involved pilgrimage and leaving informal marks on temples\, pyramids\, and other monumental structures. These graffiti are found in temples throughout the later (“Meroitic”) period of Kush\, when it bordered Roman Egypt. They represent one of the few direct traces of the devotional practices of private people in Kush and hint at individuals’ thoughts\, values\, and daily lives. This exhibition explores the times and places in which Kushite graffiti were inscribed through photos\, text\, and interactive media presentations. At the heart of the show are the hundreds of Meroitic graffiti recently discovered in a rock-cut temple by the Kelsey expedition to El-Kurru in northern Sudan.\n\nCurators: Geoff Emberling and Suzanne Davis\n\nView the online exhibition:\nhttp://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/graffiti-el-kurru/ UID:63992-16059343@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/63992 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:AEM Featured,Africa,Archaeology,Exhibition,Museum LOCATION:Kelsey Museum of Archaeology CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190928T063032 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190913T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190913T160000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Fall Preview Day I DESCRIPTION:• Explore MTR’s mission and strategy\, as well as the residency model of teacher training. \n• Observe a Master’s degree class with the Resident Class of 2020.\n• Participate in a site visit to one ofour partner neighborhood schools.\n\n- Friday\, September 13\, 2019 | 9am– 4pm\n- MTR Offices: 1350 Concourse Avenue | Suite 366 | Memphis\, TN 38104\n- Lunch provided.\n- Business casual dress preferred.\n- RSVP required.\n- Allow 15-20 minutes for parking.\n\nPlease reach out with additional questions (apply@memphistr.org)\n\nCopy and paste this link to register: https://memphistr.secure.force.com/events/targetX_eventsb__events#/esr?eid=a1L46000003NezhEAC UID:65163-16543454@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/65163 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES: LOCATION:1350 Concourse Avenue, Memphis, Tennessee 38104, United Statesof America CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190912T095058 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190913T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190913T180000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Re: Housing: Detroit DESCRIPTION:As North American cities work through the long-term implications of globalization\, disinvestment\, and post-recession revitalization\, affordable housing and community resilience are essential\, but often elusive elements of urban life. In its inclusive vision of “A City for All\,” Detroit’s unprecedented multi-pronged approach to housing and neighborhood preservation and development offers lessons relevant to both rapidly growing and Rust Belt cities looking to preserve existing housing stock and spark new development.\n\nRe: Housing: Detroit\, a symposium held in Detroit and Ann Arbor at the University of Michigan\, will convene innovators and researchers across the academy\, real estate\, architecture\, planning\, housing advocacy\, and the city of Detroit in pursuit of real solutions to Detroit’s “Missing Middle” density housing. Architects and developers working on current projects in Detroit will meet together with others working on similar projects in the US and internationally in the context of the Detroit’s Month of Design and biennial exhibition “Detroit Design 139.” Through panels focused on urban density\, domestic arrangements\, and development protocols\, they will exchange current research and contemporary projects that address the design of inclusive\, affordable\, medium-density housing.\n\nThe symposium is part of a five-year collaboration between the City of Detroit Planning and Development Department and Taubman College\, University of Michigan.

This conference will explore the history of opposition to austerity\, both retrieving overlooked forms of resistance and using those conflicts to better understand the nature of austerity itself. Over the past decade there has been a wave of path-breaking scholarship revealing the commonalities that linked capitalist and socialist economies across what has been traditionally called First\, Second\, and Third Worlds. That austerity doctrines themselves can emerge outside the well-studied context of neoliberalism\, however\, has received limited scholarly attention. We thus seek to create a new foundation to engage austerity more broadly beyond its neoliberal connotations. Our collaborative effort brings together expertise from various fields in the Humanities and Social Sciences and seeks to expand on this burgeoning reappraisal of economic systems. Increasingly\, we are coming to realize that capitalism and socialism shared a great many features in these regions—including the foundational assumptions that drive doctrines of austerity. Along these lines\, this conference will emphasize how austerity and anti-austerity clashed both within and beyond liberal capitalism\, and thus seek to better integrate the temporal and ideological binaries of political economy: pre-industrial and industrial\, capitalist and socialist\, communist and post-communist\, developed and underdeveloped\, colonial and post-colonial. In particular\, this will involve discussion of how a politics of anti-austerity was both imagined and articulated in opposition to a variety of austerity programs around the world. Forging a conversation across various regions\, we will investigate the potential of anti-austerity movements to topple governments\, collapse political orders\, and to affect other forms of change in society\, both in direct and visible ways as well as through protracted and less obvious struggles. This will also incorporate the failed attempts and arrested possibilities to displace austerity as a dominant socioeconomic formation.

DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nThis paper examines the importance of temporary price reductions in understanding competition. We examine a concentrated industry with some evidence of cooperation in price setting. We examine the US macro-beer market. We construct a model of conduct that allows producers to set both a regular price and a sale price. This model allows recovery of marginal costs and markups. We make use mixed strategy conditions required for the producers to allow retailers to choose the timing of sales to aid in the recovery of markups from sale frequencies and prices. We estimate parameters from a virtual stakes super game\, that embody collusive behavior. We find that after a competitive shake up\, that is the merger between Miller and Coors\, that competition (measured as the markup over cost) decreased in the years after.

Refreshments will be served. \n\nCindy Sowers received her B.A. from Oakland University\, her M.A. from University of Michigan in Comparative Literature\, and her Ph.D. also from the University of Michigan in Comparative Literature. During her Masters program in 1973\, she started teaching at the Residential College in the First Year Seminar and French programs. Her dissertation\, The Shared Structure of Craft and Song: A Study of Homer’s Narrative Art\, revealed passions for narrative and visual analysis comparatively understood that would characterize her teaching thereafter. She participated in an interdisciplinary group composed of Residential College humanities and fine arts faculty who together constructed the Arts and Ideas in the Humanities concentration. Cindy's recent course offerings have included critical approaches to the literature and visual arts of classic modernism\, postmodernism\, Shakespeare and Rome\, the heritage of Greece\, the psychoanalytic interpretation of the arts\, and many others. She combines analyses of literary texts\, visual arts\, and philosophy to hone in on the animating spirit of a cultural moment and space. She has presented at the Royal Shakespeare Company's 2006 U-M residency\, as part of the RC Faculty Colloquium\, for the LSA Comparative Literature and the Colloquium on Critical Theory sponsored by the LSA Department of English Language and Literature\, and at the Residential College's 50th Anniversary celebration. She has received the Ford Foundation Fellowship\, the Rackham Prize twice\, the U-M Excellence in Teaching Award\, the Matthews Underclass Teaching Award\, and is a member of the Medieval Academy of America.

In the era of Big Data\, the dimension of the U statistic and the sample size of the observations tend to be both large\, and the computation of the U-statistic is prohibitively demanding. Data-dependent inferential procedures such as the empirical bootstrap for U-statistics is even more computationally expensive. To overcome such computational bottleneck\, we introduce randomized incomplete U-statistics with sparse weights whose computational cost can be made independent of the order of the U-statistic. We derive non-asymptotic Gaussian approximation error bounds for the randomized incomplete U-statistics in high dimensions\, namely in cases where the dimension is possibly much larger than the sample size\, for both non-degenerate and degenerate kernels. In addition\, we propose generic bootstrap methods for the incomplete U-statistics that are computationally much less demanding than existing bootstrap methods and establish finite sample validity of the proposed bootstrap methods. If time permits\, I will also discuss the extension to infinite order U-statistics.

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.

During these decades\, the notion that abstraction was a purely formal and American art form\, concerned only with timeless themes disconnected from the present\, was met with increased skepticism. Women artists and artists of color began to actively and assertively explore abstraction’s possibilities. The artworks in Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics: The 1960s and 1970s demonstrate both radical and disarming changes in how artists worked and what they thought their art was about. Their new formal and intellectual strategies—seen here across large-scale and miniature work—dramatically transformed the practice of abstraction in the 1960s and 1970s in a politically shifting American landscape.\n\nUMMA gratefully acknowledges the following donors for their generous support:\n\nLead Exhibition Sponsors: University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\n\nExhibition Endowment Donors:  Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and Robert and Janet Miller Fund\n\nUniversity of Michigan Funding Partners: Institute for Research on Women and Gender\, School of Social Work\, Department of Political Science\, and Department of Women's Studies UID:63803-15884060@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/63803 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Exhibition,Museum,Politics,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - A.

In place of visible objects\, each plinth is equipped with a speaker from which we hear the word “thing” sung—edited out of and isolated from a range of pop songs. The result is an amusing and thoughtful exploration of language\, meaning\, and the conventions of museum presentation and spectatorship.\n \nThe installation\, like much of Berlin-based artist Ceal Floyer’s art\, is characteristically austere\, but its visual simplicity masks a more complicated message—often a wry cerebral twist the artist creates through language-based symbols and aesthetic devices. Floyer’s work is rooted in conceptual art\, in which the idea\, delivered through words or acts that undercut or supersede formal qualities\, is the essence of the artwork.\n\nLead support  for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan College of Engineering and the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Penny W.

Working at the turn of the twentieth century\, Schiele challenged the classical conventions of the day producing emotionally charged—often unsettling—drawings and watercolors depicting landscapes\, portraits\, and nudes. Two retired U-M professors recently gifted four works of art by Schiele to UMMA. Throughout their lifetimes\, Frances McSparran (English language and literature) and the late Ernst Pulgram (Romance and classical linguistics) collected over forty Austrian and German Expressionist works\, donating many of them to the Museum. The three watercolors and one drawing on view in this special installation complement the couple’s previous gifts of works by Schiele and his contemporaries Oskar Kokoschka\, George Grosz\, and Gustav Klimt\, reuniting these important works that together provide important insights into this tumultuous period in European history.        \n\n UID:63428-15694211@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/63428 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,European,Exhibition,History,Language,Literature,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - The Connector CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190910T164736 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190913T113000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190913T133000 SUMMARY:Other:Ask Me Anything Tables DESCRIPTION:First Year Experience (FYE) and Campus Information Center (CIC) will set up info stations in front of dining halls on campus to answer student questions.

In any situation it is very important to limit your opponent’s ability to harm you. More than 50 years ago initial stealth efforts focused on incorporating materials into an airplane’s design to reduce radar signatures. This proved to be a difficult and elusive goal. Today ‘stealth’ is designed into virtually every military vehicle.\n\nThis seminar will review the history of early stealth efforts and conclude with where the state-of-the-art is today. Air vehicles will be the main focus but it will also become clear that stealth is being added to the designs of land and sea vehicles as well. In this discussion reducing the ‘signature’ of an air vehicle to radar will be the primary focus. However\, it should be recognized that IR (infrared)\, audible\, and visual signatures can also be very important. They will be introduced with little discussion.\n\nUltimately\, the goal is to have a vehicle survive and be able to fly tomorrow’s missions or successfully penetrate enemy positions to destroy its target. Stealth is a major component of survivability but it is not the only one.\n\nWhat was the first stealth airplane? You may be surprised to learn the answer.\n\nAbout the Speaker\n\nMr. Carichner went to work for the Lockheed Skunk Works after earning his BS Engr and MS Engr degrees from UCLA. He retired in 2013 after 48 years at the Skunk Works where he worked on most of the company’s high-profile programs. During his career he started out as an aerodynamicist and eventually became Head of Aerodynamics for the Skunk Works. Future program assignments were either Chief Engineer or Program Manager positions. As Chief Engineer for the JASSM Program he was selected as Lockheed’s Inventor of the Year.\n\nThe last 15 years of his career were dedicated to lighter-than-air designs. He created the Aerocraft Program whose design resulted in a hybrid airship demonstrator that had many airplane flight characteristics that has changed the course of future airship design.\nCurrently\, Mr. Carichner teaches Airplane Design at Cal Poly Pomona\n\nMr. Carichner has written two textbooks. One on airplane design and another on airship design. Both books are published by the AIAA:\n\nFundamentals of Aircraft and Airship Design: Volume I - Aircraft Design\nFundamentals of Aircraft and Airship Design: Volume II - Airship Design and Case\nStudies UID:64895-16485189@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/64895 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:aerospace engineering,Engineering,Lecture LOCATION:Francois-Xavier Bagnoud Building - 1109 Boeing Lecture Hall CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240906T085450 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190913T133000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190913T160000 SUMMARY:Other:IPE Friday Free Passport Photos for Engineering Students DESCRIPTION:Need a passport photo for a passport or visa application?

I discuss how these imperfections lead people to misjudge themselves\, often causing them to miss their own incompetence and gullability (the so-called Dunning-Kruger effect)\, and misjudge others\, often prompting failures to recognize top-level competence and virtuosity among their peers (the Cassandra Quandary). I discuss the implications of the flawed evaluator problem for personal issues as well as society at large.

For instance\, parents are sometimes faced with value-laden tracheotomy decisions\, choosing between accepting a machine-dependent life for their child or allowing death. Both providers and parents find these decisions difficult to discuss and make. Thus\, there is a need to understand and improve the decision process for promoting high-quality provider-parent communication and decision making. A series of qualitative and quantitative studies have revealed that parents lack understanding of long-term implications in order to accurately forecast possible outcomes. An experimental survey study has shown that other parents’ narratives of child’s long-term quality of life and home care challenges reduced the tendency to choose tracheotomy and increased concerns for future outcomes. These findings suggest that providing other parents’ experiences could be a feasible way to support parents to make informed decisions. An intervention development study is in progress to produce a variety of narratives for decision aiding.
