These neurotypes reflect natural and valuable variations of cognitive function within humans\, with specific strengths that are often considered assets in STEM fields. However\, the study of the learning experiences of neurodivergent students is currently limited within the field of chemistry. This seminar will focus on qualitative research that explores the experiences of neurodivergent undergraduate chemistry students in lecture settings through semi-structured interviews with participants from across the United States. Through interpretative phenomenological analysis – a participant-oriented approach that seeks to understand how participants make sense of their lived experiences while also recognizing the researcher’s role in interpreting those perspectives – our research focuses on understanding how neurodivergent students describe their lived experiences within chemistry lecture settings and what these experiences reveal about how they think\, perceive\, engage\, and learn within these settings. Grounded in the Neurodiversity Paradigm\, this research challenges the societal construct of “normal” cognitive functioning and recognizes neurodiversity as an essential\, valuable form of human diversity. Findings and implications aim to provide rich descriptions of experiences through a neurodivergent lens to help educators design more inclusive learning spaces and inspire systemic change to better support neurodivergent students across the chemistry curriculum.

In surface waters\, BP is controlled by water temperature\, the concentration and chemical composition of dissolved organic carbon (DOC)\, nutrient availability\, and lake mixing. However\, certain aspects of individual controls\, such as the relative importance of different DOC compositions for BP\, as well as how these controls collectively influence BP at the whole-lake scale\, are poorly understood. My dissertation work will evaluate how BP is controlled at the ecosystem scale by answering three interconnected questions. First\, what is the relative importance of phytoplankton-derived DOC versus terrestrial-derived DOC for BP? Second\, what are the interactive effects of DOC composition and temperature on BP. And third\, how does weather variability\, including rapid changes in temperature\, affect BP in lakes? These questions will be answered by analyzing long-term BP and climate records\, and by experiments on DOC composition\, temperature fluctuation\, and DOC-temperature interactions.

I'll first present a few case studies to illustrate how constraints lead cultural products to take specific forms. Then\, using a model drawing on intuitions from ethnographies of craft\, techniques\, and sports\, I'll suggest that taking the constrained aspect of culture seriously can predict a specific distribution of learners’ outcomes and a punctuated evolutionary path\, and that\, importantly\, the amount of information needed to be transmitted from a teacher to a learner to attain high-fidelity transmission is low. Finally\, I'll present some of my ongoing work on how specific features of the contemporary world (complex social and technological systems) can also benefit from a constraints-based cultural evolutionary approach.

The conjecture of Lam\, Postnikov and Pylyavskyy states that\, if (lambda\, mu\, lambda'\, mu') obey certain natural inequalities\, then s_{lambda'} s_{mu'} - s_{lambda} s_{mu} is Schur nonnegative. We prove this conjecture. Our proof is based on two key ideas. First\, we introduce a new combinatorial model for Littlewood-Richardson coefficients which we name ``skeps\"\, which are similar to but distinct from Knutson and Tao's hives. Second\, we use tools from Murota's theory of L-convexity to prove an L-log-concavity theorem for skeps.

During their patronal feasts\, they perform the capture of the last Inka ruler by Francisco Pizarro’s men (1532). This tragic event brought an end to the largest empire of the pre-Hispanic Americas and initiated a new colonial order. In today’s communities\, the episode may be danced and chanted\, sometimes performed in faction fighting\, and more rarely acted out in Quechua and Spanish in the form of an outdoor stage drama. These commemorations include masses\, processions\, banquets\, and a variety of entertainments sponsored by lay volunteers\, who also embody the historical figures. But whatever their configuration\, the conquest reenactments differ from their historical reference: if some may stage the escape of the Inka leader\, most of them end with a fraternal agreement between joyful opponents. In fact\, the general atmosphere is one of rejoicing and lavish spending. While these performances strike the imagination\, this paper shows that they are nothing exceptional in the Iberian world and are rooted in colonial times. They thus offer ample materials for reflecting on the continuity over time of ritual institutions in a globalized world. They also lay a discussion on the local constructions of historical memory and their articulation with counterfactual histories. I will examine these two questions through an analysis combining materials from my own ethnographic fieldworks carried out in a small town in the Peruvian highlands\, and a critical epistemological approach.”\n\nIsabel Yaya McKenzie is associate professor of historical anthropology at the École des Hautes Études en Sciences Sociales (Paris) and former editor-in-chief of L’Homme. Revue française d’anthropologie. Her research in the highlands of Peru and Bolivia focuses on historical memory and the long-term reconfigurations of ritual institutions. Her first publications addressed how historical discourses and concepts of social reproduction among the Inkas intersected with political legitimacy. She also worked on contemporary utopias and systems of knowledge in the Andes. She is currently investigating the impact of migrations and the monetization of ceremonial services on the “cargo” ritual economy of rural communities.

In this talk I present a series of primed lexical decision experiments about how listeners recognize English words containing the sociostylistic variable ING (e.g.\, workin’ ~ working). First\, we cross the two variants in an affix priming design (e.g.\, jumpin’/jumping > thinkin’/thinking). We find that both -ing and -in’ variants robustly facilitate themselves and each other: jumpin’ does indeed facilitate both thinkin’ and thinking\, as does jumping. The strongest facilitation arises when both prime and target contain -in’\, but we do not detect differences in facilitation strength between the other three conditions\, contra the predictions of accounts rooted in prime/target similarity or prime canonicality. The extra boost in the -in’ > -in’ condition is lost when an unrelated trial intervenes between prime and target\, whereas general affix facilitation remains robust. We then move away from the affix priming design to show that when the prime is a monomorphemic noun containing ING (e.g.\, awning) and the target is a progressive verb\, then e.g. awnin’ facilitates thinkin’ but awning does not facilitate thinking. This asymmetry is not simply a property of the surface phonological strings: we do not find facilitation from e.g. dolphin to thinkin’. Finally\, to disambiguate between phonological derivation and stylistic incongruency as possible sources of the -in’ asymmetries\, we repeat the first experiment with Southern-accented stimuli intended to improve the expectedness of the -in’ variant in the experimental context. Under these conditions\, we no longer find significant evidence for the -in’ boost\, suggesting that listeners’ sociostylistic expectations modulate the priming effects. I discuss the implications for the grammatical locus of ING variation\, for how we study sociolinguistic variation in the lab\, and for the incorporation of variation into models of spoken word recognition.

Various monoids inside this mapping class group have been shown to correspond to geometric properties of the corresponding contact structures\, such as Stein Fillability\, Strong Fillability\, Weak Fillability\, Tightness etc. In the case of open books with planar (genus zero) pages\, Fillability of the underlying contact manifold was shown by Wendl to correspond to the existence of positive factorizations of the mapping class -- this is not true in higher genus. In recent work\, extending results of Lisi -- Van Horn-Morris -- Wendl\, we showed that using Spinal open books\, fillability of a contact 3-manifold can be interpreted as the existence of positive 'admissible' factorizations of a mapping class in the framed mapping class group of a planar surface. Using this\, we have recovered and improved existing fillability results on some torus bundles and surgeries on torus knots\, as well as classified the fillings of these manifolds. These are joint works with Hyunki Min and Luya Wang. The talk will introduce the notions of spinal open books and positive admissible factorizations\, and hopefully provide some insight into the four-dimensional workings that lead to the results.

Our show this year is based on Avatar: the Last Airbender\, a series that has been quintessential for many Asian Americans. For much of our community\, Avatar was a rare moment in childhood media that allowed us to identify with heroes rather than side-characters or stereotypes. The world-building\, cultural practices\, and morals draw heavily from Asian cultures\, allowing Asian Americans to see elements of themselves reflected with depth\, strength\, and respect. In addition to representation\, whether it is between elements\, responsibilities\, and identities\, Avatar explores the idea of balance. Similar to the lives of many Asian American students\, we are forced to navigate through keeping a careful balance between being American and staying connected to our cultural heritage. Through our choreography and storytelling\, we aim to translate this ambiguity\, but also the community being Asian American. Beyond performance\, our event serves as a space for learning and artistic expression\, where diverse narratives can be recognized\, celebrated\, and shared with the wider campus community.

The piece features five talented performers who engage in repetitive iterations of the move\, with variations that explore the hidden poetry inherent in social and viral dances.\n\nWith its focus on a gesture that has moved from smaller communities to mainstream platforms\, the performance highlights issues of cultural exploitation and the dynamics of creative expression in the age of TikTok and internet virality. “What does it mean to have a billion-dollar video game company be able to capitalize off of something that comes from a Black space of creativity?” Nedd asks. He explores the “algorhythm” of viral dances\, asking whether a dance move or gesture can really belong to someone\, and if so\, who really benefits.

Still living and working on the family farm\, Billy has continued writing and recording\, and\, with his brother\, started Holler Fest\, a three-day music festival featuring Michigan artists.\n\nBilly’s versatility as a multi-genre singer-songwriter is matched by his ability on a wide range of instruments from guitar and banjo to keyboards and accordion. \n\nWithin the songwriting community\, he is well-known for his musicianship and originality. In 2007\, his composition\, \"I Don't Write Love Songs\,\" was awarded the Grand Prize in the Great Lakes Songwriting Contest. Influenced by master songwriters such as Bob Dylan\, Joni Mitchell and Paul Simon\, Billy crafts melodically compelling songs that maintain a sense of the timeless and classic. Sometimes catchy folk/rock\, sometimes searing blues\, but always direct and thoughtful lyrics - this is original music from an original life\, fully accomplished yet humble\, and most of all real.

For Black women in particular\, hair has and continues to be tied to ethnic identity and a history of self-determination\, social justice\, and survival. Thus\, chemotherapy-induced hair loss is a devastating event for Black patients who are also more likely to be diagnosed with aggressive breast cancer subtypes necessitating chemotherapy\, carrying a 40% increased risk of dying from breast cancer.\n\nRedefining the ‘crown’: Approaching chemotherapy-induced alopecia among Black patients with breast cancer” started as a manuscript published in the scientific journal Cancer. But the work could not stop there. “Redefining the Crown” then metamorphosed into a photo essay project aimed at exploring the breast cancer journeys of six Black women and their experiences with hair loss due to chemotherapy. Though the project centers the experience of Black women\, we also acknowledge that breast cancer and chemotherapy-induced alopecia impact individuals of all genders. While the goal is to illuminate the unique stories of Black women who are affected uncommonly by this common disease\, the project is also a call to action regarding the disproportionate breast cancer-related mortality facing Black communities.\n\nIn this portraiture series\, photographer Tafari Stevenson-Howard captures the intimate journeys of Ann Chatman\, Tanisha Kennedy\, Felecia McDaniel\, Shantell Elaine McCoy\, Tamara Lynn Myles\, and Veleria Banks. This exhibition examines how these women have navigated the profound impact of hair loss caused by chemotherapy and how their sense of cultural pride and personal identity have been redefined amidst their battles with breast cancer.\n\nThese survivors have redefined their own crowns. More profound than the new hairstyles they don after hair loss are the invisible crowns that they choose to wear each day: gratitude\, faith\, and resilience. What do their words mean to you? Do they empower you to act?\n\nArtist’s name: Versha Pleasant\nWork Title: Image 2\nDate of creation: September 2024\nArtist’s statement: Photo by Tafari Stevenson-Howard\" UID:146980-21900157@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/146980 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art LOCATION:Michigan Union - 1st Floor - Opera Lounge CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20260403T120057 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20260404T000000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20260404T235959 SUMMARY:Other:Bike Repair Hours DESCRIPTION:Does your bike need a tune-up?

Making Armenian Americans - Project Save Photograph Archive/Archive Alive Project DESCRIPTION:Making Armenian Americans \nCurators: Michael Pifer (U-M| MES) and Kathryn Babayan (U-M|History)\nProject Save Photograph Archive/Archive Alive Project\n\nMaking Armenian Americans invites viewers into a moment of possibility in the early 20th century\, when Armenians fleeing violence at the end of the Ottoman Empire came to reinvent themselves in the promise of America. Drawn from the archives of Project Save\, these photographs capture different valences of American life\, as experienced\, performed\, and imagined by Armenian immigrants. From naturalization classes to festivals of nations\, from breaking new ground for churches to mundane tableaus of Thanksgiving and Christmas\, this range of photographs offers a glimpse of a community in the making\, one that sought to preserve a memory of its Ottoman past even while anticipating an American future.

Featuring handcrafted pieces from cities such as Hama\, Aleppo\, Homs\, and Saraqib\, the exhibit highlights textile practices that reflect identity\, memory\, and cultural continuity. Many of these traditions are increasingly at risk of disappearing\, making preservation efforts especially urgent. \n\nThis exhibit\, on display in the rotunda of the Clark Library\, follows a live presentation held on March 30 and offers you an opportunity to engage with Syrian textile heritage as both an artistic and historical narrative. UID:147155-21900452@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/147155 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Free,Library LOCATION:Hatcher Graduate Library - Clark Library, 2nd Floor CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20251212T105136 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20260404T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20260404T200000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Materia Magica: Materiality and Ritual in the Greco-Roman World DESCRIPTION:View a diverse array of artifacts which were created to communicate with and call upon various unseen\, supernatural forces for aid and protection. While the objects on display are disparate at first glance\, ranging from lead tablets and amulets to papyrus and parchment leaves\, they all share a common thread: they have long been labeled as \"magical\" in traditional Western scholarship.\n\nHowever\, each of these artifacts is better understood on a broad spectrum of ancient ritual\, from subversive and transgressive acts to highly social and visible ones. The exhibit highlights the objects’ oft-overlooked material dimensions\, asking us to consider how qualities like color\, texture\, and weight shaped an object’s perceived efficacy and meaning. \n\nThis exhibit was a collaboration\, and displays items from several University of Michigan units: the library’s Special Collections Research Center and Papyrology Collection\, the Museum of Natural History\, and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology. It was curated by Abigail Staub\, PhD Candidate\, Interdepartmental Program in Mediterranean Art & Archaeology.\n\nAnna Bonnell Freidin\, U-M associate professor of history\, will talk about \"Healing the Womb: Uterine Amulets in the Roman World\" (https://events.umich.edu/event/142418) on January 16.

Studios\, directed by Sally Clegg (Lecturer III and Student Exhibition Coordinator\, MFA ’20) and Abhishek Narula (MFA ’20)\; and Sometimes Space\, directed by Nathan Byrne (Lecturer I\, MFA ’21). Each space hosts dozens of artists annually for exhibitions\, performances\, and events\, fostering experimental work and building community. For this project\, Byrne\, Clegg\, and Narula have been commissioned to reimagine the pillars on Division Street that flank the gallery. In response\, they’ve curated six artists to create new work for the pillars over three cycles:\n\nPhase 1 (September 12 - December 12) artists: Amelia Burns (Cranbrook MFA ’23) and Erin McKenna (MFA ’20)\nPhase 2 (January 12 - August 12) artists: Sally Clegg (MFA ’20) and Kim Karlsrud (MFA ’20)\nPhase 3 (September 12 - November 12) artists: Abhishek Narula (MFA ’20) and Nathan Byrne (MFA ’21)\nPhase 2 Curatorial Statement\n\nCurated by Sometimes Space: Sally Clegg (entry pillar)\nCurated by CYNK Studios: Kim Karlsrud (courtyard pillar)\n\nArtists Sally Clegg and Kim Karlsrud wrap the Division Street pillars in highly site-specific ornament unearthed from the overlooked margins of Ann Arbor. On the Courtyard pillar\, Karlsrud scales up photographs of objects found in liminal spaces surrounding campus buildings on Green Road\, which the artist has encrusted in road salt. On the entryway pillar\, Clegg zooms in on tiny fragments of found material from UMich’s famous “rock” to celebrate nearly seven decades of student art and activism. Both artists uplift aggregate of local human activity to reveal tiny worlds of found form. \n\nSally Clegg: Sentimentary Rock\nSentimentary Rock is a composition of paint slag collected from the UMich rock monument at the corner of Washtenaw Avenue and Hill Street. This colorful composite material has been accumulating at the base of the iconic limestone boulder since the mid 1950’s\, when students began a tradition of painting it in acts of protest\, creativity\, and ritual\, sometimes multiple times per week. Akin to byproducts of industry such as “Fordite” (collectable chunks of automotive overspray sometimes called ‘Detroit agate’)\, Sentimentary Rock includes thousands of layers\, each dripped from a palimpsestic public proclamation. When processed\, sculpted\, sealed\, assembled\, and macro-photographed\, the result is this enlarged array of tiny gems\, intended to celebrate the indissoluble student voice. \n\nKim Karlsrud: What Amasses\nWhat Amasses is an assemblage of everyday found objects collected within the Miller Creek watershed\, an urbanized drainage system that encompasses much of the city of Ann Arbor and the University of Michigan campus. Selected objects were immersed in a road salt solution\, allowing delicate crystalline formations to emerge. Road salt is a common material input into these hydrological networks during the winter months and exists in multiple states of refinement\, expression\, coherence\, and fragmentation. Each object was then arranged\, photographed\, and enlarged to recontextualize these materials in ways that invite deeper reflections on how infrastructure and human agency blur notions of the natural and the artificial. \nArtist Statements/Bios\n\nSally Clegg \nSally Clegg is an artist and educator from Pelham\, Massachusetts. Her studio practice is rooted in sculpture and expanded printmaking\, stemming from a fascination with human efforts to make meaning from our relationships to objects. Clegg integrates history\, popular culture\, literature and philosophy as material for artmaking\, leveraging personal anecdote and humor to reveal the complexity\, absurdity\, and theoretical richness at play in our connections to things and to ourselves. \n\nClegg holds an MFA in Art from The University of Michigan Stamps School of Art & Design\, and a BA in Art & English from Goucher College. She has exhibited nationally and internationally\, and her work can be found in permanent collections at Yale University\, The New York Public Library\, and elsewhere. Her artwork and writing has appeared in ASAP/Journal\, BOMB Magazine\, Sculpture Magazine\, and Hyperallergic. She is a lecturer in Art & Design at the University of Michigan. Website / Instagram\n\n\nKim Karlsrud \nKim Karlsrud is the co-founder of Commonstudio\, a collaborative creative practice that develops socio-ecological and spatial interventions\, installations\, and initiatives working with and within urban landscapes. Her work explores the space between art and design\, and is grounded in the concept of the “commons\,” that which is shared\, as well as that which is ordinary\, banal\, and commonplace.\n\nKarlsrud completed her undergraduate degree in Product Design from Otis College of Art and Design and an MFA in Art from the University of Michigan. She is currently an Assistant Visiting Professor in the College of Design at the University of Oregon\, teaching across Art and Landscape Architecture departments. She jointly received the 2014-15 Prince Charitable Trust Rome Prize in Landscape Architecture\, was a 2017 resident at the Headlands Center for the Arts\, and is the 2025-26 Fuller Fieldscape Fellow.

The exhibition presents seven artists whose practices unfold through care—care for land\, for bodies\, for memory\, and for one another. Working across ritual\, non-linear time\, and intersectional inquiries into labor and domestic life\, these artists treat familial\, site-specific\, and sociopolitical histories as living structures rather than sealed archives. What We Tend features the work of MFA students River Forest Berry\, Michelle Cieloszczyk\, Zoë Dong\, Fiona Hoffer\, Michael ​“Modius Modi” King Jr.\, Michaela Nichelle\, and Sujay Saple.\n\nJoin us to celebrate the work of MFA graduate students at the Opening Reception on March 20 from 6 — 8 p.m. Refreshments will be served and artists will be present.\n\nPlease note: \n\nThroughout the exhibition\, visitors are encouraged to bring clean and empty aluminum cans to participate in Michaela Nichelle’s installation. \nThe exhibition will be closed to the public on Friday\, April 10.

The film meticulously gathers testimonies from the women\, many of whom were young at the time\, detailing the violence\, the loss of family members\, and the decades of trauma and stigma they carried in silence. By focusing on these women\, including the island's famous haenyeo (female free divers)\, the documentary provides a vital\, underrepresented perspective on a painful chapter of Korean history. Voices was a critical success on the festival circuit\, winning the Documentary Award in the Special Awards category at the 25th Jeonju International Film Festival in 2024.\n \n Directed by Ji Hye-won\n Presented in Korean with English subtitles\n\nTo learn more about the Jeju 4.3 uprising and massacre\, please visit http://jeju43peace.org or download this pdf document (https://myumi.ch/D82J8) created by Jeju Dark Tours (https://www.jejudarktours.org).\n\n*Accommodation: If there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at outreachkorea@umich.edu.

Please visit our events webpage https://myumi.ch/xwxE2 for future updates.\n\nThis event\, composed of two distinct parts\, is organized to commemorate the resilience of the people of Jeju Island and to honor the memory of those lost during the 4.3 Incident (1948–1954). One of the most harrowing chapters of modern Korean history\, the uprising and subsequent \"scorched earth\" operations resulted in the death of nearly 10% to 20% of the island’s population. Beyond the staggering loss of life\, the uprising carries profound geopolitical weight\; it was a desperate struggle against the division of the Korean Peninsula and a rejection of the remnants of Japanese colonial police structures. For decades\, this tragedy was officially silenced under the National Security Act\, forcing survivors to carry the burden of \"guilt by association\" in the shadows.\n \n We begin Part I of the event with a curated film screening documenting this historical arc—providing the essential context for the deep-seated scars left on the island. The screening will feature a selection of visual testimonies and cinematic works that bring this hidden history into the light. Among these is the award-winning \"Voices\" (2024)\, a profound documentary that specifically illuminates the long-shrouded experiences of the female survivors of the massacre. By focusing on the testimonies of the island's famous jahmnyeo (female free divers) and other women who carried the weight of trauma for decades\, the film provides a vital\, underrepresented perspective on state-sanctioned violence and the stigma of survival.\n \n Following the screening\, we move into a \"Postmemory Talk\" and \"Book Discussion\" on 2024 Nobel Laureate Han Kang’s latest novel\, *We Do Not Part*. The talk explores the ethical responsibility of the \"generation after\" to engage with a past they did not personally live through\, reclaiming victims' identities from political labels like \"rebels\" and restoring them to their humanity. Part II then transitions into a dedicated book discussion and initial discussion of Kang's masterpiece. Through the persistent imagery of Jeju’s snow and wind\, the novel illustrates that mourning is not a process with an end\, but a continuous act of communal witnessing. This segment offers a space for collective reflection on themes of friendship\, sacrifice\, and the archival preservation of memory\, ensuring that the snow of the past never fully covers the truth of the present. (Please note that reading the book beforehand is not required to participate.)\n \n Part 2 Registration: https://myumi.ch/dgx2n\n\n To help us prepare materials and accommodate all guests\, please register your attendance for Part 2 of the event at the link above.

With roughly 300 performers and 1\,300 audience members\, GenAPA stands as the largest student-run pan-Asian cultural programs. Promoting cultural diversity through tradition and history remains intrinsic to the core values of GenAPA.\n\nThis year’s theme\, “Lucid\,” captures the essence of awareness and intentionality in art and expression. To be lucid is to see clearly and understand the layers of history\, emotion\, and identity that shape creativity within the A/PIA community. The show invites performers and audiences alike to reflect on what it means to create art in a world that often oversimplifies or stereotypes their stories. Through our show\, we aim to celebrate cultural heritage while empowering students to define their identity on their own terms.\n\nHeadliner: BIXBY (ihatebixby @ IG)\n\nGroups Featured:\nFASA Pamana\nGreenwood\nK-Gayo-3\nMichigan Masala\nMichigan Mayuri\nMichigan Sahana\nMiMSA\nMoli Collective (Jazz + Jasmine)\nMuay Thai\nQingyun Chinese Music Ensemble\nrXn\nVeryUs UID:141648-21889132@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/141648 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Asia,Asian Pacific Islander American Community,Culture,Dance,Diversity Equity and Inclusion,Multicultural,Student Org LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20260325T181524 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20260404T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20260309T010000 SUMMARY:Sporting Event:Water Polo vs Indiana DESCRIPTION:Water Polo vs Indiana UID:146322-21898878@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/146322 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Athletics LOCATION:Donald B.

The piece features five talented performers who engage in repetitive iterations of the move\, with variations that explore the hidden poetry inherent in social and viral dances.\n\nWith its focus on a gesture that has moved from smaller communities to mainstream platforms\, the performance highlights issues of cultural exploitation and the dynamics of creative expression in the age of TikTok and internet virality. “What does it mean to have a billion-dollar video game company be able to capitalize off of something that comes from a Black space of creativity?” Nedd asks. He explores the “algorhythm” of viral dances\, asking whether a dance move or gesture can really belong to someone\, and if so\, who really benefits.

As the calendar pages have turned\, for almost a quarter of a century now\, this poet laureate of the folk and roots music world has gone about his work with a combination of passion\, intent and intensity\, and curiosity.\n\nFusing his insatiable appetite for finding the next unique storyline Keelaghan also forges his pieces with brilliantly defined craftsmanship and a monogrammed artistic vision\, making him one of the most distinctive and readily identifiable voices of not only the Canadian scene\, but as a member of the international singer-songwriter community.\n\nAdmiration and respect for his work amongst his peers is best summed up by David Francey who recently stated that\, “James Keelaghan is a voice in contemporary Canadian songwriting that has helped us define who we are as a people. He writes with great humanity and honesty\, with an eye to the past and a vision of the future. He has chronicled his times with powerful and abiding songs\, with heart and eyes wide open.” UID:140951-21887859@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/140951 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Ark,Mutotix LOCATION:ARK Reserved CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20260401T121630 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20260404T200000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20260404T213000 SUMMARY:Performance:Sophia Bracken\, clarinet & Alan Cook\, flute DESCRIPTION:Graduate students Sophia Bracken & Alan Cook perform a joint chamber music recital in collaboration with other players.

For Black women in particular\, hair has and continues to be tied to ethnic identity and a history of self-determination\, social justice\, and survival. Thus\, chemotherapy-induced hair loss is a devastating event for Black patients who are also more likely to be diagnosed with aggressive breast cancer subtypes necessitating chemotherapy\, carrying a 40% increased risk of dying from breast cancer.\n\nRedefining the ‘crown’: Approaching chemotherapy-induced alopecia among Black patients with breast cancer” started as a manuscript published in the scientific journal Cancer. But the work could not stop there. “Redefining the Crown” then metamorphosed into a photo essay project aimed at exploring the breast cancer journeys of six Black women and their experiences with hair loss due to chemotherapy. Though the project centers the experience of Black women\, we also acknowledge that breast cancer and chemotherapy-induced alopecia impact individuals of all genders. While the goal is to illuminate the unique stories of Black women who are affected uncommonly by this common disease\, the project is also a call to action regarding the disproportionate breast cancer-related mortality facing Black communities.\n\nIn this portraiture series\, photographer Tafari Stevenson-Howard captures the intimate journeys of Ann Chatman\, Tanisha Kennedy\, Felecia McDaniel\, Shantell Elaine McCoy\, Tamara Lynn Myles\, and Veleria Banks. This exhibition examines how these women have navigated the profound impact of hair loss caused by chemotherapy and how their sense of cultural pride and personal identity have been redefined amidst their battles with breast cancer.\n\nThese survivors have redefined their own crowns. More profound than the new hairstyles they don after hair loss are the invisible crowns that they choose to wear each day: gratitude\, faith\, and resilience. What do their words mean to you? Do they empower you to act?\n\nArtist’s name: Versha Pleasant\nWork Title: Image 2\nDate of creation: September 2024\nArtist’s statement: Photo by Tafari Stevenson-Howard\" UID:146980-21900158@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/146980 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art LOCATION:Michigan Union - 1st Floor - Opera Lounge CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20260403T120057 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20260405T000000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20260405T235959 SUMMARY:Other:Bike Repair Hours DESCRIPTION:Does your bike need a tune-up?

Making Armenian Americans - Project Save Photograph Archive/Archive Alive Project DESCRIPTION:Making Armenian Americans \nCurators: Michael Pifer (U-M| MES) and Kathryn Babayan (U-M|History)\nProject Save Photograph Archive/Archive Alive Project\n\nMaking Armenian Americans invites viewers into a moment of possibility in the early 20th century\, when Armenians fleeing violence at the end of the Ottoman Empire came to reinvent themselves in the promise of America. Drawn from the archives of Project Save\, these photographs capture different valences of American life\, as experienced\, performed\, and imagined by Armenian immigrants. From naturalization classes to festivals of nations\, from breaking new ground for churches to mundane tableaus of Thanksgiving and Christmas\, this range of photographs offers a glimpse of a community in the making\, one that sought to preserve a memory of its Ottoman past even while anticipating an American future.

Featuring handcrafted pieces from cities such as Hama\, Aleppo\, Homs\, and Saraqib\, the exhibit highlights textile practices that reflect identity\, memory\, and cultural continuity. Many of these traditions are increasingly at risk of disappearing\, making preservation efforts especially urgent. \n\nThis exhibit\, on display in the rotunda of the Clark Library\, follows a live presentation held on March 30 and offers you an opportunity to engage with Syrian textile heritage as both an artistic and historical narrative.

While the objects on display are disparate at first glance\, ranging from lead tablets and amulets to papyrus and parchment leaves\, they all share a common thread: they have long been labeled as \"magical\" in traditional Western scholarship.\n\nHowever\, each of these artifacts is better understood on a broad spectrum of ancient ritual\, from subversive and transgressive acts to highly social and visible ones. The exhibit highlights the objects’ oft-overlooked material dimensions\, asking us to consider how qualities like color\, texture\, and weight shaped an object’s perceived efficacy and meaning. \n\nThis exhibit was a collaboration\, and displays items from several University of Michigan units: the library’s Special Collections Research Center and Papyrology Collection\, the Museum of Natural History\, and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology. It was curated by Abigail Staub\, PhD Candidate\, Interdepartmental Program in Mediterranean Art & Archaeology.\n\nAnna Bonnell Freidin\, U-M associate professor of history\, will talk about \"Healing the Womb: Uterine Amulets in the Roman World\" (https://events.umich.edu/event/142418) on January 16.

Our goal is to create an accessible\, supportive space for student-driven conversations where all identities and experiences are welcomed and in which students can build skills and tools around identifying goals and values and then communicate effectively about those. Workshops will be offered at multiple locations and times throughout the fall semester\, so please sign up for the workshop that works for you!! First-Year Relationship Sexuality Talk (FYRST) FAQ:\n“How many workshops do I have to sign up for?”\nYou only need to sign up for 1 workshop. Attending 1 workshop will fulfill the requirement for the training. \n“I see that there is more than one session\, does it matter which one I sign up for?”\nIt generally does not matter which workshop you sign up for. There will be a few that are designated for specific groups such as transfer students or for students looking for accommodations. If you do not fit these groups please try to save these workshops for those that do and you are free to choose among any of the other workshops. \n“Is this workshop required?”\nThis workshop is required for all transfer and first-year students at the University of Michigan.\n“I’ve experienced harm around relationships or sexual experiences in the past and I am worried that attending this workshop may be harmful for me.” \nOur team is aware that students who are coming into the university that have experienced harm in the past. Our workshop is specifically designed to respect and validate the experiences of survivors and has been carefully constructed to avoid any specific descriptions of violence and focus instead on themes of empowerment\, communication\, and boundary setting. However\, if you still have concerns about programming and would like to request alternative programming\, please feel free to reach out at SAPAC-FYRST@umich.edu.\n“What if I struggle to learn in a presentation setting? I’m an active learner.”\nOur workshop is built to meet a variety of learning styles\, including time for self-reflection\, small group sharing\, and resources to take with you to work through on your own time! This workshop is meant to be interactive and inclusive. \n“Can I request accommodations?”\nWe considered accessibility in creating this workshop and selecting the locations in which the workshops are help. However\, we recognize many places at the University are inaccessible and we've set an * next to workshops that are on the first floor and lack stairs. These workshops also will have a presentation (other workshops we do not) and are a good fit for those who might need a large font. Please sign up for those if you feel that accommodations would assist you and reach out to SAPAC-FYRST@umich.edu if you are concerned or have questions. \n“I missed my workshop\, what should I do ?”\nOur team tracks attendance at each workshop by having participants swipe in with their MCard. If you are not able to attend the workshop you signed up for\, our team will continue to send reminder emails until you have completed a workshop. In this case\, please sign up for another workshop as soon as you can as the workshop is required and may fill up especially near the end of the semester. No need to contact SAPAC unless you are not able to reschedule. \n“I have had gender-based violence training before\, can I get this requirement waived?”\nAs this workshop was designed with University of Michigan student feedback in mind\, our workshop is unique to the UM community. Our curriculum focuses on individualized reflection and because of its interactive nature\, each workshop will be unique to the people attending. Although we are excited you already have familiarity with the subject\, this workshop is required for every first year and transfer student. \n“I’m a commuter/non-traditional student\, do I still have to attend?\"\nYes\, this workshop is required for every first-year and transfer student - not only do we want every student to benefit from having this time to connect with peers\, but we also want to make sure your peers benefit from what you bring to our community. If you have any concerns or questions about being able to participate\, please contact SAPAC-FYRST@umich.edu.\n“I still have questions! Who should I contact?\"\nPlease contact us at SAPAC-FYRST@umich.edu.

This award is named in honor of Haugh\, former professor of music and leading oratorio soloist. Belen has an extraordinary record of student success and in the spirit of this award\, her musical program will celebrate the shared joy of artistry\, performance\, and pedagogy. Free and open to the public.\n\nDREAMING IN DOUBLE STOPS\n\nThe title of this lecture recital reflects Professor Belen’s passionate dedication to the intersection of violin technique and elite musicianship through teaching and research. Double stops are a foundational violin technique in which two strings are bowed simultaneously\, creating a rich resonance and blend of sound. While technically demanding\, they can unlock freedom on the instrument and enable the highest levels of intonation and expression.\n\nEtudes and exercises focused on double stops have existed for centuries\, and etude collections from the 1800’s remain central to violin pedagogy today. This raises an intriguing question: could there be a new etude book written in the compositional language of our time?\n\nThe centerpiece of this evening will be the presentation of a multi-phase collaborative etude project between Professor Belen\, her studio of SMTD violinists\, and Grammy Award–winning composer Jessie Montgomery. Through performances and discussion of the creative process behind these works\, the project explores what modern technical studies might look – and sound – like today.\n\nFACULTY BIO\n\nProfessor of Violin at the University of Michigan School of Music\, Theatre & Dance in Ann Arbor\, DANIELLE BELEN is already making a name for herself as a seasoned pedagogue with a strong studio of young artists. Her students have won major prizes in national and international competitions including the Menuhin\, Stulberg and Klein competitions\, as well as being accepted into major conservatories and universities. Alumni from her studio play in symphonies across the country\, including the Colorado\, Cincinnati\, Detroit and San Francisco Symphonies\, the LA Opera and San Francisco Ballet Orchestras\, and internationally in Norway and Finland. \n\nWinner of the 2008 Sphinx Competition\, Ms. Belen has appeared as a soloist with the Pittsburgh\, Atlanta\, Nashville and San Francisco Symphonies\, the Boston Pops\, and the Florida and Cleveland Orchestras. Zachary Lewis from the Cleveland *Plain Dealer* wrote \"Violinist Danielle Belen... captivated every ear with an assured\, impassioned performance of Ravel's 'Tzigane\,' knocking off the daunting showpiece as if it were a trifle.\"\n\nMs. Belen released her debut Naxos recording of works by living composer Lawrence Dillon in 2009 to much acclaim. Soon after\, she commissioned \"Multiplicity\"\, a piece by Dillon for six virtuoso violins which she premiered along with her students.\n\nA graduate of the USC Thornton School of Music and the Colburn Conservatory in Los Angeles\, Ms. Belen joined the faculty of the Colburn School in 2008. In addition to maintaining her own violin studio\, she was the teaching assistant to renowned pedagogue Robert Lipsett. During that time\, Ms. Belen also served as the Director of the Ed and Mari Chamber Music Institute at the Colburn School of Performing Arts. \n\nIn 2010\, Ms. Belen founded Center Stage Strings\, a summer camp and performance festival for gifted young musicians in central California. After gaining national attention\, CSS moved to the campus of the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor as part of MPulse\, a summer program at the School of Music\, Theatre & Dance. As the Artistic Director and head of the violin faculty\, she has attracted students and seasoned artists from around the world. Lynn Harrell\, James Ehnes\, Arnold Steinhardt\, Sarah Chang\, William Hagen\, Rohan de Silva and Stefan Jackiw have joined to perform in support of the program.\n\nAs the winner of the 2014 Sphinx Medal of Excellence\, Ms. Belen performed for Justice Sonia Sotomayor and her guests at the Supreme Court in Washington DC\, where she was awarded a $50\,000 career grant. In turn\, she used that money towards a matching campaign for Center Stage Strings\, doubling the amount into $100\,000 for student scholarships.\n\nHer passion for pedagogy can be seen in her vibrant and unique teaching style\, made accessible through a host of videos available to the public through her YouTube Channel and Social Media. Ms. Belen plays on a violin made in Mantua\, Italy by Stefano Scarampella.

For Black women in particular\, hair has and continues to be tied to ethnic identity and a history of self-determination\, social justice\, and survival. Thus\, chemotherapy-induced hair loss is a devastating event for Black patients who are also more likely to be diagnosed with aggressive breast cancer subtypes necessitating chemotherapy\, carrying a 40% increased risk of dying from breast cancer.\n\nRedefining the ‘crown’: Approaching chemotherapy-induced alopecia among Black patients with breast cancer” started as a manuscript published in the scientific journal Cancer. But the work could not stop there. “Redefining the Crown” then metamorphosed into a photo essay project aimed at exploring the breast cancer journeys of six Black women and their experiences with hair loss due to chemotherapy. Though the project centers the experience of Black women\, we also acknowledge that breast cancer and chemotherapy-induced alopecia impact individuals of all genders. While the goal is to illuminate the unique stories of Black women who are affected uncommonly by this common disease\, the project is also a call to action regarding the disproportionate breast cancer-related mortality facing Black communities.\n\nIn this portraiture series\, photographer Tafari Stevenson-Howard captures the intimate journeys of Ann Chatman\, Tanisha Kennedy\, Felecia McDaniel\, Shantell Elaine McCoy\, Tamara Lynn Myles\, and Veleria Banks. This exhibition examines how these women have navigated the profound impact of hair loss caused by chemotherapy and how their sense of cultural pride and personal identity have been redefined amidst their battles with breast cancer.\n\nThese survivors have redefined their own crowns. More profound than the new hairstyles they don after hair loss are the invisible crowns that they choose to wear each day: gratitude\, faith\, and resilience. What do their words mean to you? Do they empower you to act?\n\nArtist’s name: Versha Pleasant\nWork Title: Image 2\nDate of creation: September 2024\nArtist’s statement: Photo by Tafari Stevenson-Howard\" UID:146980-21900159@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/146980 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art LOCATION:Michigan Union - 1st Floor - Opera Lounge CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20260403T120057 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20260406T000000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20260406T235959 SUMMARY:Other:Bike Repair Hours DESCRIPTION:Does your bike need a tune-up?

Making Armenian Americans - Project Save Photograph Archive/Archive Alive Project DESCRIPTION:Making Armenian Americans \nCurators: Michael Pifer (U-M| MES) and Kathryn Babayan (U-M|History)\nProject Save Photograph Archive/Archive Alive Project\n\nMaking Armenian Americans invites viewers into a moment of possibility in the early 20th century\, when Armenians fleeing violence at the end of the Ottoman Empire came to reinvent themselves in the promise of America. Drawn from the archives of Project Save\, these photographs capture different valences of American life\, as experienced\, performed\, and imagined by Armenian immigrants. From naturalization classes to festivals of nations\, from breaking new ground for churches to mundane tableaus of Thanksgiving and Christmas\, this range of photographs offers a glimpse of a community in the making\, one that sought to preserve a memory of its Ottoman past even while anticipating an American future.

The tableaus—which often include live animals\, props\, even her parents—are then photographed\, documenting the artist’s process. Each photograph becomes a part of Soleimani’s rich visual storytelling. \n\n*Flyways *presents a series of new photographs that include images evocative of her family’s history and migration story in juxtaposition with images of injured birds that are representative of Soleimani’s work as a wildlife rehabilitator. (In 2018\, Soleimani founded Congress of Birds\, a wild bird rehabilitation center in Rhode Island.) The change in her practice to include bird rescue results in a revolutionary body of work steeped in passion and articulated in a completely original visual language.

Galbreath’s work has been showcased locally\, nationally and internationally in over 20 solo/two person and over 100 group exhibitions.\n\nGalbreath has an M.F.A. from the James Pearson Duffy Department of Art\, Art History\, & Design\, Wayne State University\, Detroit\, MI\; and a B.F.A. with Permanent K-12 Certification from The Gwen Frostic School of Art\, Western MI University\, Kalamazoo\, MI. Galbreath has chaperoned eleven intensive\, immersive art experiences to Italy\, Spain\, France\, Belgium\, England\, Germany\, the Netherlands\, Austria\, and the Czech Republic. Lynn is a retired Adjunct Associate Professor of Studio Art from Oakland University\, where she has been on the faculty of the Department of Art & Art History since 2000. Lynn has also instructed studio art and design at the College For Creative Studies\, University of Detroit Mercy — School of Architecture\, Macomb Community College\, Wayne State University\, and Bloomfield University School. Her work can be seen in the collections of Oakland University\, Wayne State University\, Detroit Receiving Hospital\, Children’s Hospital of Michigan\, Pontiac Osteopathic Hospital and numerous private collections.\n\nThis exhibition consists of works from a variety of series created by Galbreath over the years: Telegraph\, Storyboard\, and Working Hard for a Living. Each series represents a unique exploration of themes\, techniques\, and social commentaries that reflect Galbreath’s artistic journey and concerns for the world.\n\nTelegraph explores the aesthetic visual weights and balances between harmony and content\, diving deep into how visual elements can convey messages and emotions. This series invites viewers to reflect on the way art communicates through its formal qualities\, as well as its narrative possibilities. The careful interplay of shapes\, colors\, and textures in these works prompts an examination of the viewer's perception and emotional response. By utilizing abstract forms\, Galbreath encourages an engagement that goes beyond mere observation\, seeking to provoke thought about how aesthetic choices influence understanding and meaning.\n\nOn the other hand\, Storyboard is a series of image-driven installation paintings that vary greatly in size\, showcasing Galbreath’s versatility and creative ingenuity. The titles of the works draw inspiration from the years spent creating visuals for TV commercials and public service announcements\, illustrating how commercial art often intertwines with societal messages. This series emphasizes the profound impact visual narratives have on consumer culture and public perception\, underscoring the artist's belief in the potency of imagery to shape narratives. The installations weave a complex fabric of storytelling that challenges viewers to reconsider their relationship with media and the messages they consume daily.\n\nWorking Hard for a Living pays tribute to our sustainable and unsustainable resources\, shedding light on the individuals who toil diligently within these economic frameworks. This series highlights the hard-working suppliers of essential products\, including Farm Market Managers\, Fishmongers\, and Beach Vendors. By portraying these self-employed individuals\, often operating within informal economies\, Galbreath draws attention to the unique challenges they face. These individuals frequently contend with low\, inconsistent incomes\, long hours\, and sometimes exploitative conditions\, fostering a sense of solidarity with those who labor under such circumstances.\n\nFurthermore\, the series invites viewers to confront the broader societal structures that contribute to these inequities. Galbreath's work serves not only as a tribute but also as a call to action to consider how our consumer habits and economic policies affect the livelihoods of others. The layered narratives present in this series open a dialogue about the value we place on labor and the often unseen struggles that support our day-to-day lives. Through these explorations\, Galbreath establishes a multifaceted narrative that intertwines art with activism\, compelling audiences to engage both aesthetically and ethically with the realities depicted in the exhibition.

While the objects on display are disparate at first glance\, ranging from lead tablets and amulets to papyrus and parchment leaves\, they all share a common thread: they have long been labeled as \"magical\" in traditional Western scholarship.\n\nHowever\, each of these artifacts is better understood on a broad spectrum of ancient ritual\, from subversive and transgressive acts to highly social and visible ones. The exhibit highlights the objects’ oft-overlooked material dimensions\, asking us to consider how qualities like color\, texture\, and weight shaped an object’s perceived efficacy and meaning. \n\nThis exhibit was a collaboration\, and displays items from several University of Michigan units: the library’s Special Collections Research Center and Papyrology Collection\, the Museum of Natural History\, and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology. It was curated by Abigail Staub\, PhD Candidate\, Interdepartmental Program in Mediterranean Art & Archaeology.\n\nAnna Bonnell Freidin\, U-M associate professor of history\, will talk about \"Healing the Womb: Uterine Amulets in the Roman World\" (https://events.umich.edu/event/142418) on January 16.

The institute was established because faculty members believed that research on women\, gender\, and sexuality required an institutional commitment to thrive. That belief was itself a form of resistance—to disciplinary silos\, to marginalization\, to the idea that such scholarship was peripheral.\n\nThis theme reminds us that resistance is not merely reactive\; it is constructive. When rooted in collaboration and sustained through infrastructure\, it produces knowledge that reshapes disciplines\, institutions\, and public life.\n\nThis exhibit celebrates 30 years of IRWG—its history\, its programs\, and the people whose vision and labor built it into what it is today. Through archival materials\, milestones\, and stories\, we trace the evolution of an institute that has continually expanded the boundaries of research in women\, gender\, and sexuality.\n\nThis exhibit centers growth\, collaboration\, and intellectual creativity—honoring the sustained efforts\, bold ideas\, and collective care that have shaped IRWG’s legacy and continue to guide its future.\n\nHosted and sponsored by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Department of Women’s and Gender Studies\, U-M. \n\nLocated on the first floor of Lane Hall (204 S. State Street)\, the Exhibit Space is free and open to the public\, M-F\, 9am-4pm.

These paintings serve as a visual record of Detroit’s transformation\, capturing humanity’s impact on the environment alongside nature’s persistent efforts to reclaim these spaces. As the city continues to change\, many of these depicted scenes are vanishing\, no longer visible in the landscape today. The significance of this documentation goes beyond mere nostalgia\; it invites viewers to reflect on the dynamic interplay between urban development and ecological restoration\, prompting a deeper understanding of how cities evolve while retaining traces of their history.\n\nSwafford’s paintings are created on location and in one session. The natural conditions\, including light\, shadow\, and atmosphere\, change dramatically from hour to hour and day to day\, forcing the artist to respond quickly and decisively. This approach\, born of a direct engagement with the subject and the fleeting nature of the scene\, along with his wet-on-wet technique\, keeps the work fresh and immediate. By immersing himself in the environment\, Swafford captures the diverse textures and vibrant colors that characterize Detroit’s landscape\, imbuing his work with a sense of urgency and spontaneity. Each brushstroke conveys a commitment not only to visual accuracy but also to emotional resonance\, as he strives to encapsulate the spirit of a place that is both loved and contested.\n\nIn addition to these works\, the artist constantly sketches ideas both for paintings and for designing projects in his business. These sketches serve as visual language\, helping him clarify and refine his concepts before bringing them to life. They become a means to communicate ideas to clients and his crew and become an extension of his voice—an academic exercise rooted in artistic practice that fosters collaboration and innovation. The act of sketching also reflects his evolving relationship with the city\, as each drawing encapsulates fleeting moments of inspiration drawn directly from his surroundings. This duality of function—creating art for exhibition and conceptualizing designs for projects—demonstrates Swafford’s versatility and adaptability as an artist.\n\nSwafford received a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in painting from the Rhode Island School of Design\, and while at RISD\, he was part of the European Honors Program. His education not only honed his technical skills but also broadened his artistic perspective through exposure to varied artistic traditions. He has shown his work in both solo and group exhibitions in Chicago\, Kansas City\, and New York State. Each exhibition serves as a testament to his commitment to his craft and his ability to engage diverse audiences\, offering them an opportunity to explore the complex narratives woven into each landscape.

In this workshop\, participants begin by reflecting on their various commitments and values before engaging in a discussion of the shared reading. The session concludes with individual and collaborative workshop time targeting feasibility in their designs. Participants assess citations in a recent project to determine the extent to which they have used citations to build the kind of “dwelling” they want to occupy and explore options for further renovating. Alternatively\, participants may bring a project they have not yet researched fully in order to map a citation policy for that project.\n\nQualifiers: This is a workshop especially designed for those in the humanities\, social and applied sciences. Before the workshop\, we ask that you read an eight-page excerpt (sent to those who register) from Ahmed’s Living a Feminist Life.\n\nPresented by April Conway and Laura Clapper\, Sweetland Center for Writing Faculty\n\nRegistration required.

The lack of a definitive signal in traditional searches for WIMP-like dark matter has motivated an increased focus on so-called dark sector scenarios\, in which the Standard Model (SM) is extended with new particles that are neutral under the SM gauge group but charged under new \"dark forces\"\, interacting with the SM only through an additional mediator particle. A particularly compelling class of these models is dark QCD\, where the dark sector contains its own confining gauge group\, analogous to SM QCD\, giving rise to a spectrum of composite dark states. These models can produce striking collider signatures\, including displaced vertices\, jets containing invisible constituents\, and emerging jets\, whose charged particle content gradually emerges as the dark states decay back to the SM. These signatures pose significant challenges for standard reconstruction techniques\, requiring the development of novel identification strategies. In this talk\, I will present recent ATLAS efforts to probe dark QCD signatures\, including searches for exotic decays of the Higgs boson to long-lived particles\, the first ATLAS search for emerging jets\, and the reconstruction techniques that enable the identification of these topologies. Together\, these results illustrate how ATLAS is expanding its reach into dark sector parameter space and opening new avenues in the search for dark matter.

In this talk\, I will introduce SL_r webs and discuss ongoing work studying the structure of the set of edge colorings of an SL_r web. An (edge) Kempe move on an edge coloring of a graph swaps two colors along a maximal path in the graph that uses only those two colors. We can use these moves to construct a graph P(W\,r) whose vertices are r-edge colorings of an SL_r web W and whose edges correspond to Kempe moves. I will show that P(W\,r) is connected and that it is a poset! I present a few questions about the structure of this poset and answer some of them.
