Class / Instruction:West African & Modern Dance Technique with Erika Stowall, SMTD Alumni Award Winner
2024-09-13 14:00 - 16:00 | Dance Building
Erika Stowall presents a master class with a mixture of West African and Modern dance technique, consisting of grounded movement and floorwork. Students will explore movements which will incorporate the whole body through polyrhythms and syncopation. Free and open to the public; located in The Berg (1020 Dance / Studio 2).

Winner of the 2023 Emerging Artist in Dance Award from SMTD Alumni Board, ERIKA "RED" STOWALL (BFA ’08, dance) is an educator, dancer, and choreographer residing in Detroit, Michigan. Stowall is a recipient of the Kresge Artist Fellowship, Applebaum’s Emerging Artist Award, and a Fulbright-Hays Group Projects Abroad grant, awarded through the University of Detroit Mercy. Stowall uses her classical training, combined with her background in West African dance, as the foundation of her work.

Many of her works explore her real-life experiences navigating being a Black woman in society. Her work is based on positive portrayal of Black stories and advocating for Black women’s voices. Stowall sees dance as a calling and is passionate about creating performance pieces that invite conversation on safe spaces for women of color, restoration, and positive narrative/images of Black communities. She is currently the dance teacher at Martin Luther King Jr. High School in Detroit, her alma mater. Stowall is the founder and current artistic director of Big Red Wall Dance Company, which has been active since 2011.

Workshop / Seminar:Allocation Mechanisms with Mixture-Averse Preferences
2024-09-13 14:30 - 15:50 | Lorch Hall - 301
Consider an economy with equal amounts of N types of goods, to be allocated to agents with strict quasi-convex preferences over lotteries. We show that ex-ante, all Pareto efficient allocations give almost all agents lotteries over at most two outcomes. Therefore, even if all preferences are the same, some identical agents necessarily receive different lotteries. Our results provide a simple criterion to show that many popular allocation mechanisms are ex-ante inefficient. Assuming the reduction axiom, social welfare deteriorates by first randomizing over these binary lotteries. Efficient full ex-ante equality is achieved if agents satisfy the compound independence axiom.

Workshop / Seminar:GL-algebras and the Noetherianity problem (combinatorics seminar)
2024-09-13 15:00 - 16:00 | East Hall - 4096
Draisma recently proved that finite length polynomial representations of the infinite general linear group GL are topologically GL-noetherian, i.e., the descending chain condition holds for GL-stable closed subsets. The scheme-theoretic variant of this theorem is a major open problem in the area. I will briefly outline the rich history of this problem and provide a negative answer in characteristic two.

Lecture / Discussion:HET Seminar | New (Non-)Supersymmetric Phases in N=4 SYM
2024-09-13 15:00 - 16:00 | West Hall - 340
In this work, we extend our current understanding of the phase diagram of N=4 SYM at any given set of charges (Microcanonical Ensemble) by proposing various new phases. These new phases correspond to hairy black hole solutions in the bulk gravitational theory and are easier to construct and analyze due to the emergence of a "Non-interacting" picture. The new phases continue to exist even in the supersymmetric limit and contribute to an extra parameter (amount of "hair") worth of solutions. The presence of new supersymmetric solutions predicts a phase transition in the superconformal index of N=4 SYM.

Workshop / Seminar:Student Algebraic Geometry: Complete Intersections of Two Quadrics in Projective Space
2024-09-13 15:00 - 16:00 | East Hall - 2866
Complete intersections in projective space are, behind hypersurfaces, perhaps the easiest varieties to study, but even in simple cases can have interesting geometry. In the simplest non-trivial case of a complete intersection we can intersect two smooth quadric hypersurfaces, and even in this case the resulting variety X turns out to be worthy of study. I will discuss some of the interesting aspects, including the rationality of X and how one can associate to X a hyperelliptic curve (under a condition on the parity of dim X).

Lecture / Discussion:Smith Lecture, Anne Kort, University of Michigan
2024-09-13 15:30 - 16:30 | 1100 North University Building - 1528
Extant mammals move in many ways, from walking and running to swimming and climbing. How can we compare locomotion across taxa, both extant and extinct, to understand how these different styles of movement evolved through time? For any organism, locomotion is a complex combination of (1) its capacity for movement as constrained by its morphology, (2) the behaviors that the organism employs within its biomechanical limits, and (3) the habitat(s) through which the organism moves. Traditionally, this complexity is collapsed into several broad locomotor categories, like arboreal, terrestrial, or cursorial, because postcranial fossils and modern ecological data are often extremely limited. I will present two cases where exceptional data allows for more nuanced comparison of locomotion across mammals. First, in extant mammals, GPS tracking data records locomotor behavior: how far and where individuals choose to travel. I used data from an online database, Movebank, to measure the daily distance travelled by different species of mammals. I took skeletal measurements from specimens in the University of Michigan Museum of Zoology (UMMZ) for the same species to look at how morphology corresponded with distance moved. For the second case, I will discuss the preservation of partial skeletons in the Eocene Bridger Formation of Wyoming. Often, postcranial fossils are isolated bones without good identifiers and locomotion must be inferred from the function of a single bone or joint. The Bridger Formation, however, has produced a number of exceptional partial skeletons, including for “archaic” mammals, groups which have gone completely extinct. I will show how these can be used to examine the interaction between different elements of the skeleton in relation to locomotion.

Performance:Phranc in Flint: Butch Essentials
2024-09-13 18:00 - 21:00 | Off Campus Location
Join the Institute for the Humanities' Woodhead Visiting Artist Phranc for an evening of music and bow-tie making at Flint ArtWalk. Drop by between 6pm and 9pm for light snacks and a chance to meet Phranc, a self-professed queer artist, Jewish lesbian folksinger, and cardboard cobbler.

This event is presented in collaboration with the U-M Flint Center for Gender and Sexuality and Riverbank Arts.

Phranc's installation *The Butch Closet* runs Sept. 12-Oct. 25 at the Institute for the Humanities Gallery.

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

Exhibition:Being Mixed Race in a Mono-racially Organized World
2024-09-14 08:00 - 23:00, 2024-09-15 08:00 - 23:00, 2024-09-16 08:00 - 23:00, 2024-09-17 08:00 - 23:00 | Hatcher Graduate Library - Clark Library (2nd floor)
The exhibit "Being Mixed Race in a Mono-racially Organized World: Interracial Identity in the U.S. and Around the World — What Research and Mixed Race People Tell Us" is an exploration into the library's collections about the diversity of mixed race heritage. Through research, narratives, demographic data, and a variety of visual and published materials, explore multifaceted aspects of mixed race heritage with insights from many perspectives.

The 2020 U.S. Census illuminated a 276 percent increase in individuals who identify as "two or more races" since 2010. In recognition of the growing numbers of mixed race-identifying people at the University of Michigan, throughout the country, and across the globe, we're excited to unveil this new exhibit — a unique exploration of changing demographics and intersectional identities.

[The Hatcher Library will be closed December 21 to January 1.]

About the Photo Exhibition:

The Niger Delta region of Nigeria has been described as one of the most polluted spaces in the entire world. For over 60 years, the region has been host to the activities of multinational oil corporations who partner with the Nigerian state in exploiting oil for profit. Oil was first discovered in the region in 1956, and the first shipment of the commodity to the international market occurred in 1958 with a consignment of about 5,000 barrels per day (bpd). Production peaked at about 2.5 million bpd, but today, because of community protests, insurgency, and general disruption to the activities of corporations, the number hovers between 1.2 million to 1.4 million bpd. While the state has benefited immensely from oil production, the same cannot be said of the communities that are hosts to pipelines, flow stations, and all of the oil infrastructure that has come to define the entire region. Loss of livelihood, heavily polluted environment, death, and displacement have characterized the region’s interaction with multinational oil corporations such as Shell, Chevron, ExxonMobil, Eni, Total Energies, etc.

This exhibition is a bold attempt to shed light on what it means to live in an oil extractive enclave like the Niger Delta region of Nigeria. The images showcase the lives lived, the loss, perseverance, and determination to survive.

The exhibition is divided into two parts. The first part of the exhibition is displayed in the DAAS gallery with the sub-theme “People Crossings and the Dangers of Oil Pollution” and is a demonstration of the everyday lived experiences of the inhabitants of many of the enclaves of the Niger Delta. As depicted in the photos, people cross polluted rivers to go to school and in search of a means of survival.

Gallery visitors are invited to cross from the DAAS Gallery to the International Institute Gallery on the 5th floor of Weiser Hall to see the second part of the exhibition, “Living, Community, and Polluted Environment.” This portion of the exhibition demonstrates community resilience in the face of environmental persecution. It shows everyday life amid oil infrastructure that litters the entire landscape of many of the communities in the Niger Delta region of Nigeria.

Exhibition:Mrs. Dalloway and WWI: Home Front and War Front
2024-09-14 09:00 - 20:00, 2024-09-15 09:00 - 20:00, 2024-09-16 09:00 - 20:00, 2024-09-17 09:00 - 20:00 | Hatcher Graduate Library - Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room, 1st Floor
This exhibit explores the characters of Mrs. Dalloway through the lens of WWI and its aftershocks. It looks at those who fought in the trenches and those who watched from afar.

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

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

Exhibition:A Gathering
2024-09-14 11:00 - 20:00, 2024-09-15 11:00 - 20:00, 2024-09-17 11:00 - 17:00 | Museum of Art - Lizzie and Jonathan Tisch Apse
Welcome. Make Yourself At Home.

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

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

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

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

Exhibition:Kelly Church & Cherish Parrish: In Our Words, An Intergenerational Dialogue
2024-09-14 11:00 - 17:00 | Off Campus Location
Exhibition Dates: September 13 – December 7, 2024Opening Reception: September 19, 2024

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

Exhibition:Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism
2024-09-14 11:00 - 20:00, 2024-09-15 11:00 - 20:00, 2024-09-17 11:00 - 17:00 | Museum of Art - European and American Decorative Art
Organized as a response to the Museum’s recent acquisition of Titus Kaphar’s Flay (James Madison), this upcoming reinstallation of one of our most prominent gallery spaces forces us to grapple with our collection of European and American art, 1650-1850.

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

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

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

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

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

— Toni Morrison

Exhibition:Michelle Hinojosa: Logcabins
2024-09-14 11:02 - 17:00 | Off Campus Location
Stamps Gallery commissioned Michelle Hinojosa (MFA, 2023) to reimagine the pillars on Division Street that flank the Gallery. Hinojosa has created log cabin quilts to adorn the columns in front of Stamps Gallery. The log cabin quilts traditionally represent the warm hearth at the center of a home. This installation reflects on the interplay between home, placemaking, labor, and intergenerational memories of migration. Rather than quilting cotton designed to softly embrace the body, these quilts are sewn from outdoor grade, UV-resistant polyester. The quilt is an ode to Hinojosa’s grandmother who illegally crossed the US/Mexico border holding her babies and her quilts. As she and her family drove across the United States to work in the fields of the Salinas Valley, the quilts offered a safe space for her and her family. Hinojosa celebrates their resilience to her grandmother and elders while also drawing attention to precarity and violence experienced by refugees and migrants crossing the US-Mexico border in our present today.
Artist’s bio:
Michelle Inez Hinojosa is an artist, educator, and researcher whose work is informed by Indigenous and Latine/x/a/o studies. Born and raised in Texas, she earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in both drawing and painting and art education with a minor in art history at the University of North Texas. She holds a Master of Fine Arts from the University of Michigan. She works with quilting, bead weaving, embroidery, jewelry, transparent film installations, painting, ceramics, and sculpture to honor and explore the history of migration in her family and humanize the current discourse around migration still occurring at the southern border. Alongside her artwork she maintains a writing practice to re-story, re-make, and re-claim the often subordinated narratives of Latinx, Chicanx, Mexican, and Texican peoples.

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

Performance:Chris Smither
2024-09-14 20:00 | Off Campus Location
Chris Smither grew up in New Orleans where he first started playing music as a child. The son of a Tulane University professor, he was taught the rudiments of instrumentation by his uncle on his mother’s ukulele. “I’d loved acoustic music – specifically the blues – ever since I first heard Lightnin’ Hopkins’ Blues In My Bottle album.” Chris says, “I couldn’t believe the sound Hopkins got. At first I thought it was two guys playing guitar. My style, to a degree, came out of trying to imitate that sound I heard.” His music draws deeply from the blues, American folk music, modern poets, and humanist philosophers.

Chris comes to The Ark in support of his 20th album, “All About the Bones” (release date: May 3, 2024 on Signature Sounds/Mighty Albert, distributed by Redeye). Featuring eight brand new Chris Smither songs and Smither renditions of Eliza Gilkyson’s “Calm Before the Storm” and also Tom Petty’s “Time to Move On”, the listener is welcomed into some gothic mansion on an imaginary New Orleans street, and there in the lamplit parlor confronts the band, a minimalist skeleton crew: Smither’s inimitable propulsive guitar and rumbling baritone are joined seamlessly to producer David Goodrich’s carpetbag of instruments, Zak Trojano’s rock-steady, primal drumming, BettySoo’s diaphanous harmony vocals, and the flat, mournful flood of Jazz legend Chris Cheek’s saxophone. Recorded at Sonelab Studios in Easthampton MA by Justin Pizzoferrato “All About the Bones” has a feel that is somehow baroque and austere at once.

Born of a session in Paisley, Scotland, and named for the town's historic weaving industry and local poet laureate Robert Tannahill, the Tannahill Weavers have made an international name for their special brand of Celtic music, blending the beauty of traditional melodies with the power of modern rhythms. Now in their 53rd year, the Tannahill Weavers are one of the world's premier traditional Celtic bands, their diverse repertoire spans the centuries with fire-driven instrumentals, topical songs, original ballads and lullabies, and humorous tales of life in Scotland.

In 2021 they were joined by exciting piper and fiddle player Iain MacGillivray, who is also Scotland's youngest Clan leader. Iain, a fluent Gaelic speaker, has worked on such exciting productions as Outlander and Men in Kilts, and has performed for a huge list of stars and dignitaries in recent years. As the band celebrate the nomination of their 18th recording, Òrach (“Golden” in Gaelic) as album of the year, and themselves as band of the year, they are firmly established as one of the premier groups on the concert stage. From reflective ballads to foot-stomping reels and jigs, the variety and range of the material they perform is matched only by their enthusiasm and lively Celtic spirits.

2024-09-16 08:00 - 17:00, 2024-09-17 08:00 - 17:00 | Weiser Hall - Room 1010
The act of embroidering and weaving designs onto cloth is deeply rooted in Ukrainian traditions. Embellished clothing (sorochky), ritual cloths (rushnyky), and household textiles accompany a person from birth until death, punctuating important life events in between. A variety of embroidery patterns are used throughout Ukraine; some stitches are universally known, while others are region-specific. Ukrainian embroidered clothing is now officially celebrated with an annual Vyshyvanka Day observed throughout the world in May.

To see photos and read more about exhibited items, visit https://myumi.ch/AZedA

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

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

2024-09-16 09:00 - 16:30, 2024-09-17 09:00 - 16:30 | East Quadrangle - RC Art Gallery
This fall, the Residential College Art Gallery proudly presents Guardians: Spirits of Protection, an exhibition of evocative figurative sculptures by renowned artist Ann Savageau. The exhibition will be on display from August 26 to November 2, 2024.

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

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

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

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

Exhibition:The Butch Closet
2024-09-16 09:00 - 17:00, 2024-09-17 09:00 - 17:00 | Thayer Academic Building - Institute for the Humanities Gallery
In the multi-media installation *The Butch Closet*, artist Phranc illustrates her life stories as a queer artist, Jewish lesbian folk singer, and "cardboard cobbler." By meticulously re-creating personal objects and pieces of clothing out of paper, cardboard, thread, and paint, she revisits her own history, contextualizing her experiences as an iconic performer, and maker, constructing, reconstructing, and re-imagining her image against a larger historical context of second-wave feminism and queer activism. The institute's presentation of *The Butch Closet* is the second iteration of the project, offering a more intimate and immersive engagement with Phranc's sculptural works. As part of the installation, visitors can peer into a closet built in the center of the gallery designed by the artist. Conceptually, the space shifts from inside to outside, public and private, and explores themes of visibility and that which remains inaccessible or unseen.

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

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

Lecture / Discussion:CMENAS 2024 Fall Colloquium Series. The Walls Have Eyes: Surviving Migration in the Age of Artificial Intelligence
2024-09-16 12:00 - 13:30 | Weiser Hall - 555
From robo-dogs to drones to biometrics, high-risk technologies now impact every aspect of migration. Based on years of researching borderlands across the world, lawyer and anthropologist Petra Molnar’s book, The Walls Have Eyes is a global story—a dystopian vision turned reality, where your body is your passport and matters of life and death are determined by algorithm. Examining how technology is being deployed by governments on the world’s most vulnerable with little regulation, Molnar shows us how borders are now big business, with defense contractors and tech start-ups alike scrambling to capture this highly profitable market.

The Walls Have Eyes reveals the profound human stakes of the sharpening of borders around the globe, foregrounding the stories of people on the move and the daring forms of resistance that have emerged against the hubris and cruelty of those seeking to use technology to turn human beings into problems to be solved.

Petra Molnar is a lawyer and anthropologist specializing in migration, technology, and human rights. She is the Associate Director of the Refugee Law Lab at York University and a Faculty Associate at Harvard’s Berkman Klein Center for Internet and Society. Her first book is called The Walls Have Eyes: Surviving Migration in the Age of Artificial Intelligence and was published with The New Press in May 2024.

2024-09-16 13:00 - 14:00 | East Hall - 3866
Through the early and mid-20th century, modal logics were developed as a syntactic extension of propositional logic to more faithfully capture aspects of natural language. We will describe a modal extension of propositional logic called S4 and its Kripke semantics, introducing propositional logic along the way. We'll then revisit some of the original issues motivated by natural language and possibly some mathematical applications.

Workshop / Seminar:HEP-Astro Seminar | Redshifts by Breakfast but what is for lunch? From DESI to Stage-5 Spectroscopy
2024-09-16 15:00 - 16:00 | West Hall - 340
The Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) is an ultra-efficient multi-object spectrograph installed on the Mayall telescope. DESI routinely collects spectra from ~2 million objects per month, and delivers nightly redshifts in time for morning coffee. The DESI survey is now more than 60% complete, and so planning for future campaigns is beginning in earnest. I will describe the DESI "Stage-4" experiment, with a focus on how the design of the DESI instrument enables the survey to study dark energy. I will then present a proposal for an upgraded "DESI-2" survey, which would, in part, survey higher-redshift sources to probe early dark energy and the growth of structure in the matter-dominated regime. Finally, I will detail requirements to achieve a "Stage-5" experiment, which could be met by upgrading the Mayall and Blanco telescopes and installing augmented DESI-type devices at each of these facilities. I will outline proposed designs for such instruments, and the path towards realizing these designs!

Running complex analyses has become easier with the ability to Google commands or even use ChatGPT for writing code. People now grab data from anywhere they can get it, run sophisticated analyses, and put out interesting findings in public and scientific press. Then you find out their work is based on a dataset that has 95% missing data and asked four questions total. It’s easy to get caught up in the excitement of working with data, and even better if you find something novel, but the findings are only as good as the underlying data. Increasingly, journals retract publications due to falsified or misleading data, analyses, or citations.

This session emphasizes the importance of understanding the basics – who, what, when, where, and how – of data collection before celebrating any results, yours or others’, and demonstrates the value of ICPSR metadata in that regard.

Workshop / Seminar:RCGD Fall Seminar Series: The Social Psychology of Systemic Racism (Nick Camp)
2024-09-16 15:30 - 17:00 | Institute For Social Research - 1430
The first seminar in the series will be given by series organizer Nick Camp.

Racial disparities in policing are profound and accompanied by equally persistent gaps in trust. Analyses of these and other inequities are often bifurcated between institutional and individual levels of analysis. In this talk, Nick Camp describes how everyday contacts between the public and doctors, teachers, or police officers—institutional interactions—bridge these levels. Organizations direct and coordinate these agents' individual discretion; at the same time, individual agents relate to the public in ways institutions themselves cannot. The dual nature of these encounters links individual and dyadic processes to organizational and institutional ones. Using police stops as a paradigmatic example, Nick Camp illustrates how institutional interactions contribute to racial gaps in police‐community trust, how they can be used as a platform for changing the relationship between law enforcement and the public, and how they can inform our understanding of inequality in other settings.

Talks in this series will be held Mondays from 3:30 to 5, starting Sept. 16.
In person: ISR Thompson 1430
As permissions allow, seminars are later posted to our YouTube playlist.

Group Dynamics Seminar Series
The Group Dynamics Seminar series is considered one of the longest running seminar series in the social sciences. It has been running uninterruptedly since it was founded by Kurt Lewin in the 1920’s in Berlin. A very important feature of this seminar today is its interdisciplinary nature. Recent seminars have included themes such as political polarization, cultural psychology, and evolution & human behavior.

What are the points of connection between structures and individuals when we think about bias? In the Fall 2024 RCGD Seminar Series “The Social Psychology of Systemic Racism,” an all-star lineup of behavioral and political psychologists will define what, in their words, makes systemic racism systemic, and how extra-individual levels of analysis could be incorporated in social psychological theories and methods.

Lecture / Discussion:State Proposals for Single Payer Health Insurance Systems: Policy Visions and Challenges
2024-09-16 16:00 - 17:30 | Weill Hall (Ford School) - Annenberg Auditorium (1120)
The United States is the only high-income country without some form of universal health insurance. In addition to national proposals for universal coverage, over 20 state legislatures have introduced proposals for health insurance reform including single-payer plans. In this Omenn-Darling Health Policy Talk, experts will discuss the design and potential benefits of state-based single payer health insurance systems along with their economic and political challenges. Moderated by John Ayanian, director of the University of Michigan Institute for Healthcare Policy and Innovation, panelists include Michigan state representative Carrie Rheingans, Ohio state representative Michele Grim, Robin Lunge from Vermont’s Green Mountain Care Board, and Ford School professor and health policy expert Paula Lantz.

Speaker bios:

Michigan State Representative Carrie Rheingans is serving her first term representing the 47th House District. As the only Michigan legislator with a Master of Public Health, she believes that every policy issue is a health issue. Before being elected to office, Rep. Rheingans was an adjunct instructor at the University of Michigan School of Social Work, teaching courses in health policy, community organizing, and policy advocacy. In addition, she worked for many health and health policy organizations, including the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS), the Center for Health Research and Transformation (CHRT), and multiple HIV and AIDS-related organizations across southeast Michigan. While at MDHHS, Rep. Rheingans increased substance use disorder Medicaid provider capacity. During her time at CHRT, she assisted with the roll out of the Affordable Care Act and integrating medical, behavioral, and social services in Livingston and Washtenaw Counties. And she has direct experience working in in syringe access programs, community outreach and safer sex education, and HIV testing and counseling.

Dr. Michele Grim is State Representative in Ohio House District 43. During her freshman term in the legislature, she has advocated for health care for all, comprehensive gun legislation, laws to keep domestic violence survivors safe, and protecting child influencers. She is one of the joint sponsors of the Ohio Health Care Plan which would create universal health care in the state of Ohio. Representative Grim was an at-large member of the Toledo City Council in 2022. While on council, she led the effort to allocate American Rescue Plan dollars for medical debt relief for tens of thousands of Toledoans and Lucas County residents. Before her work as a legislator, she served in various roles at non-profit, government, and academic institutions. She is also a committed leader in the struggle to end violence
against women who volunteered as a rape crisis counselor beginning in her teens coordinated sexual assault education and prevention programs at the University of Toledo.

Robin J. Lunge, JD, MHCDS is a Member of Vermont’s Green Mountain Care Board. The Board is charged with regulating the health care industry, including hospitals and insurers. Previously Lunge served as Governor Shumlin’s Director of Health Care Reform for close to 6 years, coordinating health reform efforts for his administration.
She also worked as a nonpartisan staff attorney at Vermont Legislative Council for 8 sessions and provided drafting and staff support in health and human services issues to members of the Vermont Legislature. Lunge worked at the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities in Washington D.C. as a senior policy analyst on public benefits issues in 2007. Her areas of expertise are federal and state public benefit programs, health care, and health care reform.

Workshop / Seminar:GLNT: Categorical equivalences in Local Geometric Langlands
2024-09-16 16:30 - 17:30 | East Hall - 3088
Abstract: Let F be an equal characteristic local field and G a reductive group. It is known that by type theory that representations of G(F) can be understood as modules over various associative algebras, called Hecke algebras. In particular tamely ramified principle series are modules of the affine Hecke algebra. Based on this interpretation and a realization of the affine Hecke algebra using equivariant K-theory, Kazhdan and Lusztig proved the Deligne-Langlands correspondence. A geometrization of such correspondence was studied by Roman Bezrukavnikov, by proving a coherent realization of the affine Hecke category. In this talk, I will give an equivalence between certain deeper level Hecke categories with affine Hecke categories of a smaller group H (usually a twisted Levi of loop group LG), therefore relating wildly ramified representations with tamely ramified ones of H.

Workshop / Seminar:IOE 813: Brainstorming ways to enhance emergency support for teenagers in mental health crisis
2024-09-16 16:30 - 18:00 | Industrial and Operations Engineering Building - 1680
About the speaker:
Andrew M. Fine, MD, MPH, Senior Associate Physician in Pediatrics, Boston Children's Hospital, Associate Professor of Pediatrics and Emergency Medicine, Harvard Medical School.

Abstract:
As mental health issues among teenagers continue to rise in the U.S., pediatric emergency departments are increasingly serving on the frontline. However, these settings often face limited resources, stretched staff, and long wait times for inpatient treatment, each of which can compromise patient experience and quality of care. It’s a safety net on the cusp of collapse. Together, along with experts, clinicians, and community stakeholders, we will explore innovative strategies to enhance the experiences of teenagers presenting to the emergency department amid mental health crises. Join us in brainstorming strategies to best support these patients—whether through preventative health, emergency department care, or expedited placement—and prevent our safety net from collapsing.

This event is a part of IOE 813 "Providing Better Healthcare Through Systems Engineering.". For more information, email ioe813-cheps@umich.edu.

Lecture / Discussion:Three Ways of Queering Jewish and Israeli History
2024-09-16 18:15 - 19:15 | Michigan Union - Pendelton Room
MJSA Conference Keynote Lecture: “Three Ways of Queering Jewish and Israeli History”
Iris Rachamimov
Monday, September 16, 6:15 - 7:15 PM
Michigan Union, Pendelton Room

In the past three decades, queer-identified scholars have been producing studies that deal with Jewish queer subjectivities and sexual practices. Inspired by the rise of queer theory, researchers the 1990s and the first decade of the 21st century laid the groundwork to “Jewish Queer Studies.” The addition of Trans, Mizrahi and Israeli queer perspectives expanded the topic significantly in recent years with a plethora of publications in various languages. This lecture aims to reflect on the insights, potentials and blind spots of three main approaches to queering Jewish and Israeli Studies:

1) The examination of present and historical queer selfhoods.
2) The development of activist scholarship aimed at generating politically useful knowledge
3) The adoption of queer theoretical perspectives and terminology to analyze both queer and non-queer modes of life.

The lecture will attempt to show how queering Jewish Studies could be a very fruitful even for those scholars who do not necessarily identify as queer.

Lecture / Discussion:Book Talk: Megan Kimble
2024-09-16 19:00 - 21:00 | Central Campus Classroom Building - 0420
Journalist Megan Kimble’s book City Limits: Infrastructure, Inequality, and the Future of America's Highways weaves together the origins of urban highways with the stories of ordinary people impacted by our highway-based transportation system. Kimble asks, “What if, instead of building our aging roads wider and higher, we removed those highways altogether?” Kimble will share thoughts on how highway removal, when done thoughtfully, can bring new life to a divided city.

In City Limits, journalist Megan Kimble tells the story of the origins of urban highways through case studies of fights against highway expansions in Austin, Houston and Dallas. In Austin, hundreds of families will lose child care if a preschool is demolished to expand Interstate 35. In Houston, a young Black woman will lose her brand-new home to a new lane on Interstate 10—just blocks away from where a seventy-four-year-old nurse lost her home in the 1960s when that same highway was built. And in Dallas, an urban planner has improbably found himself at the center of a national conversation about highway removal. The book also delves into highway removal projects in San Francisco and Rochester.

Join us for a presentation and discussion of this exciting and timely new book.
Snacks will be provided.

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Megan Kimble is an investigative journalist and the author of Unprocessed. A former executive editor at The Texas Observer, Kimble has written about housing, transportation, and urban development for The New York Times, Texas Monthly, The Guardian, and Bloomberg CityLab.
