They often provide strongly-coupled UV fixed points with remarkable features for perturbatively non-renormalizable gauge theories\, which makes them interesting in their own right. Moreover\, prominent lower-dimensional theories can be obtained by compactification from five-dimensional parent theories\, and this perspective has led to numerous new insights. A fruitful interplay between string theory and quantum field theory methods has led to a coherent and thorough understanding of 5d SCFTs\, and I will review recent developments in this context.

Sources of Water Vapor\, from Lakes to Leaves\, from a Surface Measurement Perspective. DESCRIPTION:Water vapor is the most abundant greenhouse gas in the atmosphere. Relative to all the absorbers of longwave radiation in the atmosphere\, water vapor is responsible for an estimated 50% of the total current greenhouse effect\, followed by clouds (25%)\, then CO2 (20%) (Schmidt et al.\, 2010). Without water vapor and the other greenhouse gases\, the global mean average temperature would be a frigid -15 oC. Evaporation is the link between the energy and water balances\, and on an annual basis\, evaporation accounts for roughly 76% of the surface radiation budget. Critical to life in many aspects\, water plays a vital role in regulating the Earth’s temperature through both positive and negative feedbacks in the climate system. For example\, warming due to increases in atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations can result in increased humidity thus additional warming (positive feedback)\, or increased cloud cover can result in surface cooling (negative feedback). \n\nDriven by recent observations of increases in humidity\, extreme events such as droughts and floods\, and issues concerning food security and water quality\, understanding how water enters the atmosphere through open water sources (e.g. lakes) and vegetation is critical to understand the changing environment. Despite this need\, evaporation (and sublimation) conceptually appear as a simple process\; just place a pan of water outside and measure change in water level. Compared to the other well-known greenhouse gas carbon dioxide\, however\, water vapor is inherently difficult to measure and shows complex patterns in both space and time. From a measurement perspective\, water vapor exists in minute quantities in the atmosphere (roughly 4 ppm compared to 400 ppm for carbon dioxide)\, adheres to instruments such as sample tubes\, and changes phase with changes in temperature and pressure. Moreover\, evaporation shows large spatial and temporal patterns even over “simple” water bodies such as lakes and reservoirs. Control of transpiration from vegetation\, responsible for roughly 60% of the terrestrial global evaporation (Schlesinger and Jasechko\, 2014)\, also varies spatially from the scale of individual leaves to forests\, and is influenced by a myriad of both biotic and abiotic factors.\n\nGiven the importance of water vapor\, different measurement and modeling approaches to quantify the transfer of water from the Earth’s surface to the atmosphere have been attempted for decades. Starting with open water surfaces\, a summary of evaporation studies from reservoirs to the Great Lakes\, and from alpine wetlands and tundra to subalpine forests\, will be presented. Challenges and lessons learned from a field-study perspective of this vital component of the water cycle will be discussed.

Specifically\, it will show how the opinions of jurists working within the Hindu legal tradition changed over time on four major issues related to Hindu widows. These issues are: widow remarriage and levirate\; a widow’s right to inherit\; widow self-immolation or sati\; and widow-asceticism. This talk will then argue that the shifting opinions of Hindu jurists on these four issues are\, to a significant extent\, causally related to one or another and that they allow us to identify and track major shifts in orthodox Brahmanical attitudes toward women during the early medieval period (c. 500-1300 CE). \n \nDavid Brick is assistant professor of Sanskrit literature at the University of Michigan. His research deals with diverse aspects of early India and Sanskrit literature with a special focus on the influential tradition of classical Hindu law known as Dharmaśāstra. His first book\, Brahmanical Theories of the Gift: A Critical Edition and Annotated Translation of the Dānakāṇḍa of the Kṛtyakalpatura (Harvard Oriental Series 2015)\, comprises the first critical edition and translation into any modern language of a dānanibandha\, a classical Hindu legal digest devoted to the culturally and religiously important topic of gifting. His next major project will be a comprehensive study of widows under Hindu law.\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.

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.

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.

Using woodcut\, painting on canvas\, and mixed media\, Linda Hyong\, Sung Eun Hong\, and Seong Ok Lee explore the world of flowers\, gardens\, and nature in vivid works that slow time to a fleeting present moment.\n\nLinda Hyong is a University of Michigan alumna and former teaching assistant in the U-M Stamps School of Art & Design.

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:63803-15884061@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:63428-15694212@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:20190805T093506 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190914T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190914T112000 SUMMARY:Presentation:Science Forum Demo: Counting Cells DESCRIPTION:Join us in the Science Forum for 15-20 minute engaging science demonstrations that will help you see the world around you in a whole new way.

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:63992-16059344@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:20190904T114403 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190914T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190914T140000 SUMMARY:Other:MIW Application Deadline-September 23\, 2019 DESCRIPTION:Application deadline for regular admission Winter 2020 and early admission Fall 2020.

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.

Using woodcut\, painting on canvas\, and mixed media\, Linda Hyong\, Sung Eun Hong\, and Seong Ok Lee explore the world of flowers\, gardens\, and nature in vivid works that slow time to a fleeting present moment.\n\nLinda Hyong is a University of Michigan alumna and former teaching assistant in the U-M Stamps School of Art & Design. She draws her inspiration from Claude Monet’s water lily garden in France to create her own modern interpretation of impressionism. Seong Ok Lee is inspired by flowers\, which she believes are the most beautiful forms in nature. In her dream-like\, nearly abstract paintings\, Sung Eun Hong communicates her vision of what she calls “pure dreams and fantasy.”\n\nExhibit runs September 14 through November 15\, 2019 at the\n\nUniversity of Michigan Matthaei Botanical Gardens\, 1800 N.

Much has been said regarding these refugees\, but all too often the voices of refugees themselves are left out of the conversation.\n\nThis exhibit uses the data collected from a Photovoice project\, combining photography and transcriptions from groups discussions with adolescent refugees to better understand the lived experiences of adolescent refugees. The gallery highlights five main themes that were discussed: Stability and Security\, Interpersonal Difficulties\, Rooting Factors\, Personal Growth\, and Contribution.\n\n“I wish I could help out people… Imma give them everything.

During a 23-year career with the Clements\, Brian Dunnigan has served as curator of maps\, head of research and publications\, associate director\, and acting director. Daily contact with the collections has inspired reflections on some of the things that the Clements does very well\, driving his exhibit themes around active collecting\, conservation\, solving mysteries\, and more. \n\nDunnigan’s selections include poignant manuscripts\, striking visual imagery and cartography\, and some of his favorite materials from the collections\, drawing especially from his expertise in the mapping of the Great Lakes. This valedictory exhibit in the Clements’s soaring Avenir Foundation Reading Room dwells on seven areas of commitment and illustrates the concepts with some of the Library's most evocative and handsome holdings.

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:63803-15884062@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.

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.

Through works of art spanning ancient to contemporary times\, Copies and Invention in East Asia challenges our understanding of originality\, and presents copying as an act of imaginative interpretation. The exhibition includes burial goods that conjure a world for the deceased\; Buddhist sculptures produced in multiples to amplify religious experience and meaning\; paintings in which a master’s brushstrokes are faithfully duplicated as a way of shaping the self\; and contemporary works that address multiplicity and duplication in the modern world.\n\nLead support is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, Lieberthal-Rogel Center for Chinese Studies\, Center for Japanese Studies\, Nam Center for Korean Studies\, School of Information\, and College of Engineering.

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:63428-15694213@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:20190805T093306 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190915T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190915T123000 SUMMARY:Other:Wonderful World of Whales Tour DESCRIPTION:Tours are about 30 minutes long and are limited to 15 people per tour group.

The Tübingen program\, which is organized through the Center for Global and Intercultural Studies (CGIS)\, takes place in the Winter term\, and it is intended for students who have completed at least German 221/231 by the end of the Fall 2019 term. \n\nThe German Department strongly recommends that you precede your stay in Tübingen by attending one or two four-week sessions at the Goethe Institut. This Goethe Institut segment is not part of the CGIS program itself. Please talk to one of German's academic advisors about the Goethe segment (germanadvising@umich.edu).\n\nThe CGIS portion in Tübingen will start early in March with a mandatory \"Kompaktkurs\" (6 credits) or a \"Startkurs\" (3 credits). While you will be enrolled for the Winter 2020 term at the University of Michigan\, you will then take classes during \"Sommersemester\" at the Universität Tübingen (mid April - late July). You will earn 15-18 credits for Winter 2020: the courses that you take in Tübingen can be language courses for international students or regular university courses. Various university courses outside the English Department are taught in English.\n\nTübingen credits can be used to satisfy degree requirements for a German major or minor.\n\nPlease note that you must attend a First Step session in order to study abroad with CGIS. During the Winter term\, First Step sessions are offered every Monday through Friday from 5-5:30 p.m. in Weiser Hall\, Suite 200.\n\nFor more information about the Tübingen program and to apply\, go to: https://mcompass.umich.edu/index.cfm?FuseAction=Programs.ViewProgram&Program_ID=10248 UID:63586-15808566@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/63586 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:German,Language,Study Abroad,Undergraduate LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190823T100616 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190915T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190915T160000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition | Graffiti as Devotion along the Nile: El-Kurru\, Sudan DESCRIPTION:Ancient graffiti provide a unique glimpse into the lives of individuals in antiquity. 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:63992-16059345@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:20190915T120017 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190915T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190915T150000 SUMMARY:Sporting Event:Michigan All Girl Cheer Tryouts DESCRIPTION:Location: Palmer Field\nDate: September 8\, 2019\nTime: 1:00-3:00pm \n\nCome tryout for the only All-Girl Cheer and STUNT team at the University of Michigan!

From this centerpiece\, the works of art are grouped in scenes or distinctive vignettes comprised of a broad mix of American\, European\, African\, and Asian art from across media. The reinstallation doesn’t adhere to either chronological or geographic boundaries. Curated by Vera Grant\, UMMA’s Deputy Director for Curatorial Affairs\, Curator of Modern and Contemporary Art. Of this installation\, she says: “The exhibition recasts the role of the collection as an active\, creative\, sometimes startling source of material and ideas\, open for debate and interpretation. The arrangements remind us that works of art can change in meaning and affect when placed in new contexts.” Join an docent to explore and interpret this exciting new project.\n\n UID:64051-16109195@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/64051 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Africa,Art,European,Exhibition,Media,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190919T115110 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190915T140000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190915T143000 SUMMARY:Other:Museum Highlights Tour DESCRIPTION:Tours are about 30 minutes long and are limited to 15 people per tour group.

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.

The copper and brass vessels in her Ваза series and other included works are a meditation on fluidity of memories: their ability to shift from reflection to re-invention over time. Each vessel potentially holds something within its boundaries\, whether tangible or not. \n\nGifts of Art Gallery – Taubman Health Center North Lobby\, Floor 1\n1500 E.

It also explores how creators have pushed back against the colonialist\, hyper-masculine\, and racist ethos of the text by using the castaway narrative to explore self-sufficiency\, otherness\, and the role of gendered and racialized ideas in constructing the self.\n\nThis novel of shipwreck\, survival\, and rescue has become a cultural touchstone. Today\, many people who haven’t read the novel still feel familiar with key plot elements\, Robinson Crusoe\, and Friday. Yet\, there is less familiarity with how both the original text and many of the adaptations of Robinson Crusoe have fed into and reinforced narratives of imperialism and racism. Drawing on the Hubbard Collection of Imaginary Voyages - one of the world’s most comprehensive collections of editions\, translations\, adaptations\, and spin-offs of Robinson Crusoe - Other Crusoes\, Other Islands seeks to understand how readers and writers have engaged with the story since its initial publication in 1719.\n\nContent Advisory: Please be aware that some items in this exhibit feature racist imagery and potentially painful content. Although Robinson Crusoe is often treated as children’s literature and this exhibit includes children’s books and board games\, it is not an exhibit geared towards children and reflects the significant shifts over time in ideas about what is appropriate for children.

During her Masters program in 1973\, she started teaching at the Residential College in the First Year Seminar and French programs.

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.

Much has been said regarding these refugees\, but all too often the voices of refugees themselves are left out of the conversation.\n\nThis exhibit uses the data collected from a Photovoice project\, combining photography and transcriptions from groups discussions with adolescent refugees to better understand the lived experiences of adolescent refugees. The gallery highlights five main themes that were discussed: Stability and Security\, Interpersonal Difficulties\, Rooting Factors\, Personal Growth\, and Contribution.\n\n“I wish I could help out people… Imma give them everything.

Philbert convened a Blue Ribbon Panel to offer recommendations on the question: “What ought to be the intersection between political thought/ideology and a faculty member’s responsibility to students?” The panel submitted their report to Provost Philbert in March 2019\, which included a Statement of Principal (p. 9) among its recommendations.\nThe purpose of this town hall meeting is to gather reactions to the principles articulated in the report as well as input on how these principles can best be operationalized. The event will begin with an overview of the report\, followed by table discussions led by graduate student peer facilitators.\nRackham seeks extensive student perspectives and contributions on this important topic. Students who are unable to attend the town hall are invited to submit anonymous\, confidential feedback through the following link: https://umich.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_bBdnASte2slsGjz.\nRegistration required at https://myumi.ch/2DB1B.\nWe want to ensure full and equitable participation in our events.

We develop a two-stage\nprocedure to measure risk preferences\, and we demonstrate it via a\nsurvey about hypothetical retirement investment choices administered\nto 601 Cornell students. The first stage is the standard method of\neliciting choices over risky lotteries. In the second stage\, we\nconfront participants with their inconsistencies—their different\nresponses to choices framed differently that should be the same\naccording to expected-utility axioms—and allow them to update their\nchoices. Our key assumption is that individuals’ updated\, “reasoned”\nchoices more closely reflect their preferences than their original\,\n“untutored” choices. We find that on average\, participants update in\nthe direction of consistency with expected-utility axioms\, and their\nreasoned choices may exhibit less risk aversion than their untutored\nchoices. Our results suggest that deviations from the axioms may\ntypically reflect decision errors rather than non-expected-utility\npreferences. Our two-stage procedure may hold promise as a way to\nmeasure risk preferences for the purpose of setting optimal defaults\nor giving advice about portfolio allocation.

Some of the most iconic companies such as Eastman Kodak\, Bethlehem Steel\, and Westinghouse have gone bankrupt or disappeared\, while newer types of companies such as Amazon and Uber are ascending. In their heyday\, large corporations were integral to the growth of the middle class by offering lifetime employment and benefits. But today\, many traditional and new-age companies treat employees as contractors and they need fewer workers to achieve economic values comparable to businesses of the past. We will read and discuss “The Vanishing American Corporation” by U of M professor Gerald Davis. (OLLI members may remember his lecture last fall on the future of work). The author tracks the rise of the large corporation and then describes the economic\, social\, and technological developments that have led to its decline. He shows how these trends are leading to income inequality and social instability. Dr. Davis goes on to describe the future of business and how workers can navigate changing conditions. \n\nInstructor Gerry Lapidus contributed professionally to the emergence of the new tech world and has conducted over 50 OLLI book discussion classes.

Bryngelson\nSenior Postdoctoral Scholar\nCalifornia Institute of Technology\nWorking with Tim Colonius\n\nTuesday\, September 17\, 2019\n4:00 p.m.\n2147 GG Brown\n\nAbstract \nMulti-component flows play a central role in engineering problems ranging from the design of biomedical devices for therapy to naval and aircraft development. I will consider cellular\, cavitating\, and droplet flows as canonical examples of such flows. Each case is treated using novel computational techniques for simulation. This includes a sub-grid disperse flow model that is based upon particle population moments and improved via recurrent neural networks. The high-fidelity spectral and discretely-conservative interface-capturing methods used to solve for the flow will be discussed\, including a presentation of our new open-source solver\, MFC\, that implements them. These large-scale simulations are complemented by novel analyses based-upon non-modal stability theory\, chaotic dynamical systems\, and stochastic and data-driven techniques. These are interpreted as they apply to microfluidics\, rheometry\, and even feeding humpback whales.\n\nBio \nDr. Spencer Bryngelson is a Senior Postdoctoral Scholar at the California Institute of Technology\, working with Professor Tim Colonius. Previously\, he was a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Center for Exascale Simulation of Plasma-Coupled Combustion (XPACC)\, a PSAAP II center. He received his PhD and MS in Theoretical and Applied Mechanics from the University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign in 2017 and 2015\, respectively\, working with Professor Jonathan Freund. In 2013\, he obtained BS degrees in both Mechanical Engineering and Engineering Mathematics from the University of Michigan–Dearborn. His research lives at the intersection of fluid dynamics and computational physics\, with a focus on biomedical\, defense\, and environmental applications. In pursuit of this\, he develops high-performance software\, physical models\, numerical methods\, and techniques for physics-based and data-driven analysis UID:66532-16831257@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/66532 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Biomedical Engineering,Engineering,Free,Mechanical Engineering,Michigan Engineering,Seminar LOCATION: CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190724T154824 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190916T150000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190916T163000 SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:Spanish III – Advanced DESCRIPTION:Spanish III Advanced is a continuation for those 50 and over who have taken Intermediate Spanish or have equivalent knowledge.

We investigate the reaction of firms to a notched policy where they must hire private auditors after crossing a revenue threshold as specified in the Indian tax law. We develop a novel framework to assess the impact of a notched-policy on variables other than the running variable\, where static bunching analysis may be biased. Our difference-in-differences estimates suggest that firms remit 15 percent higher taxes and report 12 percent higher taxable income once they are subject to third-party audit. The effect is heterogeneous\, with firms reporting higher tax if they generate a substantial paper-trail and have lower labor costs. Finally\, extending the policy to smaller firms can result in higher aggregate welfare.

One question is how we could translate the disease data into better care management of patients through an emerging ecosystem of healthcare apps\, made possible by smartphones now considered as medical devices. It is known that many diseases manifest complex progression process\, involving both temporal dynamics and spatial evolution that could be captured by a rich array of sensors in a smartphone. How could we model\, monitor\, and modify these processes are challenging problems. For example\, diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease and Type 1 Diabetes share the commonality that they involve slow and predictable progression processes. Knowing how a disease progresses is helpful\, particularly if we’d like to prevent the disease as early as we could for maximum therapeutic efficacy and improved quality of life. The modeling of the progression process is statistically challenging given the high-dimensionality of the data\, the mixed types variables\, and the data’s longitudinal nature. Another commonality of these diseases is that\, since they are chronic conditions\, being able to recognize subtle symptoms that indicate significant clinical events or suggest worse outcomes is crucial for preventative care. Further\, patients need to be dynamically prioritized by their projected risk for resource allocation optimization. This needs robust models that build on the statistical knowledge provided by disease modeling and monitoring\, to guide the selection of high-risk patients for targeted care. In this talk\, I will share some of our works to tackle these challenges by developing novel models and algorithms to provide data-driven decision-making capabilities for better disease management implemented through smartphone apps.\n\nDr. Shuai Huang is an Associate Professor at the Department of Industrial and Systems Engineering at the University of Washington. He received a B.S. degree on Statistics from the School of Gifted Young at the University of Science and Technology of China in 2007 and a Ph.D. degree on Industrial Engineering from the Arizona State University in 2012. He is also an adjunct faculty member at the Department of Biomedical Informatics and Medical Education (BIME) and the Integrated Brain Imaging Center (IBIC) at the University of Washington. Dr. Huang develops methodologies for modeling\, monitoring\, diagnosis\, and prognosis of complex networked systems such as the brain connectivity networks and disease progression process that have multiple stages and pathways. He also develops statistical and data mining models to integrate massive and heterogeneous datasets such as neuroimaging\, genomics\, proteomics\, laboratory tests\, demographics\, and clinical variables\, for facilitating scientific discoveries in biomedical research and better decision-makings in clinical practices. His research is funded by the National Science Foundation\, Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA)\, Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF)\, Helmsley Foundation\, NIH\, and several biomedical research institutes. Dr. Huang currently serves as Associate Editor for the IIE Transactions in Healthcare Systems Engineering and Quality Technology and Quantitative Management.

Remember\, this meeting is on the Diag and at 7pm.
