SUMMARY:Exhibition:CAS Exhibit. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Flyways
DESCRIPTION:Iranian-American artist Sheida Soleimani explores themes of migration\, political exile\, queerness\, and environmental crisis through the wildly imaginative and intricate scenarios she first stages in her studio. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Lynn Galbreath Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Lynn Galbreath\, a Detroit based artist who grew up in Argentina\, is a former recipient of the Creative Artists’ Grant from the Arts Foundation of Michigan and the Michigan Individual Artist Grant from Michigan Council For The Arts. 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.

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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Terence Swafford Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition showcases a decade of artist Terry Swafford’s work in Detroit\, marking the culmination of years spent composing scenes from the untamed edges of urban communities. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Fore-Site (Phase 2): The Stamps Gallery Pillar Project
DESCRIPTION:\n\nFrom September 2025 through August 2026\, Stamps Gallery is partnering in a curatorial collaboration with two Ypsilanti-based\, artist-run project spaces led by Stamps alumni: C.Y.N.K. Studios\, directed by Sally Clegg (Lecturer III and Student Exhibition Coordinator\, MFA ’20) and Abhishek Narula (MFA ’20)\; and Sometimes Space\, directed by Nathan Byrne (Lecturer I\, MFA ’21). Each space hosts dozens of artists annually for exhibitions\, performances\, and events\, fostering experimental work and building community. For this project\, Byrne\, Clegg\, and Narula have been commissioned to reimagine the pillars on Division Street that flank the gallery. In response\, they’ve curated six artists to create new work for the pillars over three cycles:\n\nPhase 1 (September 12 - December 12) artists: Amelia Burns (Cranbrook MFA ’23) and Erin McKenna (MFA ’20)\nPhase 2 (January 12 - April 12) artists: Sally Clegg (MFA ’20) and Kim Karlsrud (MFA ’20)\nPhase 3 (May 12 - August 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:What We Tend: The 2026 MFA Graduate Thesis Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:\n\nWhat We Tend: The 2026 MFA Thesis Exhibition is on view at the Stamps Gallery from March 20 — April 11\, 2026. 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.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:DAAS Faculty Forum with David Doris\, LS&A (DAAS and History of Art)\, Stamps School of Art  & Design
DESCRIPTION:David T. Doris is associate professor of African art and visual culture at the University of Michigan\, in the Department of the History of Art\, the Department of Afroamerican and African Studies\, and the Stamps School of Art & Design. He specializes in the history of African arts and visual cultures. His scholarly interests include theories of cross-cultural interpretation\, conceptions of an \"anti-aesthetic\" in African contexts\, the phenomenology of \"power objects\,\" and the representation of Africa and its peoples in world's fairs\, theme parks\, and other commodity spectacles. He maintains a special focus on the art and culture of the Yoruba people\, both in southwestern Nigeria and in the Diaspora. His book\, Vigilant Things: On Thieves\, Yoruba Anti-Aesthetics\, and the Strange Fates of Ordinary Objects in Nigeria (University of Washington Press\, 2011)\, addresses the moral\, ethical\, and aesthetic roles of assemblages of useless and discarded objects in contemporary Yoruba culture. In 2012\, Vigilant Things received the African Studies Association’s Melville J. Herskovits Award\, presented for “the most important scholarly work in African studies published in English during the preceding year.” He is currently reconsidering the iconography of the ancient Yoruba Ogboni Society of honored elders\, suggesting iconography diverts viewers from perceiving \"secret\" truths about Ogboni power. Those truths\, plainly shown\, can't be read\, and go unseen.\n\n\nHighlighted Work and Publications\n\nVigilant Things: On Thieves\, Yoruba Anti-Aesthetics\, and the Strange Fates of Ordinary Objects in Nigeria\nDavid Doris\n\nPublisher: University of Washington Press Year of Publication: 2011 Location: Seattle # of Pages: 416

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:How to Set and Achieve Financial Goals as a Graduate Student
DESCRIPTION:Having any savings rate when living on a graduate student stipend is a huge financial accomplishment. You are eager to make the best use of that limited flow of money\, but you might be stuck in analysis paralysis. Should you save up cash? Should you pay down debt (even student loans)? Should you invest—and is that possible during graduate school?

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:MPSDS / JPSM Seminar Series - Machine Learning for Inverse Probability Weighting in the American Community Survey
DESCRIPTION:MPSDS / JPSM Seminar Series\nMPSDS M3 Series: Mastery\, Methodology\, Meetups\n\nIn person\, room 1070\, Institute for Social Research and via Zoom. \nthe Zoom call will be locked 10 minutes after the start of the presentation. \n\nMachine Learning for Inverse Probability Weighting in the American Community Survey\n\nDeclining response rates and data collection interruptions are resulting in missing data complexity that traditional missing data techniques used in Census Bureau survey processing may not flexibly capture. At the same time\, availability and link ability of administrative records\, third party\, and previous census/survey data has improved allowing for more informative response propensity models. These developments lend themselves to the study of data-driven enhancements on inverse probability weighting (IPW) methods to adjust for unit nonresponse. We study and compare the use of traditional statistical models and machine learning algorithms applied to complex survey data for model-based IPW nonresponse adjustment using auxiliary sources with multiple years of American Community Survey data. We share various measures for model comparisons\, application-specific tuning parameter selection\, and visualizations of geographically-differentiated results.\n\nDarcy Morris is a Research Mathematical Statistician in the Center for Statistical Research and Methodology at the U.S. Census Bureau.  Dr. Morris' research interests include missing data methods for probability and nonprobability data\, categorical data analysis\, and multivariate distributions with applications in a variety of economic\, demographic\, and social topics.  She received her PhD in Statistics from Cornell University and a Master's in Statistics from George Washington University\, where she is currently a Professional Lecturer in the Data Science Program.

DESCRIPTION:We study the perturbative S-matrix of the c=1 string and show that it admits a description in terms of a double-scaled matrix integral. Together with the well-known duality to matrix quantum mechanics\, this leads to a triality between worldsheet string theory\, matrix quantum mechanics\, and a matrix integral.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:How Health Concerns Shape Clean Energy Policy
DESCRIPTION:Clean energy is widely framed as a public health win. So why does it often trigger opposition\, and how should those conflicts be resolved? Using Michigan as a grounding case\, the panel explores what happens when health evidence\, local governance\, equity concerns and climate goals collide - and what we can do about it to meet urgent climate goals. This timely conversation will be moderated by Eliza Barclay\, climate opinion editor at The New York Times\, whose work explores how science\, climate policy and public trust collide. She will lead a lively discussion with University of Michigan faculty experts in energy systems\, public health\, equity and governance on how the U.S. can expand clean energy while building trust and protecting community health. \n\nPanelists: \nCarina Gronlund\, Ph.D.\, M.P.H.\nResearch Associate Professor\nInstitute for Social Research\, Survey Research Center\n\nSarah Mills\, Ph.D.\nDirector\, Center for EmPowering Communities\nClinical Associate Professor of Practice of Urban Planning\nTaubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning\n\nParth Vaishnav\, Ph.D.\nAssistant Professor\, School for Environment and Sustainability\n\nPresented by the Institute for Healthcare Policy and Innovation's Sandy-Hassmiller Climate & Health Initiative\, in collaboration with the Graham Sustainability Institute.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Math Grad Show and Tell Seminar: PDE in AG\, and AG in PDE?
DESCRIPTION:Algebraic geometry studies geometric shapes using algebraic methods. But somehow differential equations show up! I will give an overview of what algebraic geometers (at large) care about while highlighting the role analysis plays: for example\, hodge theory uses elliptic equations to study topology of complex manifolds\, and Monge–Ampère equations are fundamental in the study of Calabi—Yaus\, the so-called hidden dimension of the universe.\n\nConversely\, AG also gives back to differential geometry\, for example by giving algebraic criteria for existence of canonical metrics and helping with moduli problems. This talk is intended to be an introduction to algebraic geometry with a PDE twist\, and no background in either field is needed.

SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Personal Statements for Pre-Health Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Personal Statements for Pre-Health\nOne of the biggest hurdles for many in the grad school application process is the Personal Statement. This workshop will support you in the writing process. The Personal Statement requires a different form and serves a different function than other forms of professional and academic writing. Furthermore\, the American Medical College Application Service (AMCAS) and the Associated American Dental Schools Application Service (AADSAS) provide limited directions and guidance for personal statement writing for students applying to Medical or Dental programs.\nTogether\, with a Hub coach and your peers\, we will work together to establish what makes a powerful and effective personal statement for Medical School\, Dental School\, and other Pre-Health programs at an ideal time ahead of summer deadlines.  \n\nYou should attend this workshop if you are:\nA liberal arts and/or sciences (LSA) student pursuing pre-health graduate programs\nInterested in learning more about the possibility (and realities) of grad school\nDeciding if advanced study is a step you want to take\nCurious about what writing a Personal Statement entails (i.e what even is it?)\nLooking for some guidance for assessing if your Personal Statement is aligned with your interests and goals\n\nWhat you’ll gain by attending:\nInsight into best practices when writing a Personal Statement from various perspectives\nUnderstanding of different requirements and formats for different graduate schools\nHow to attack the writing process in an order that makes the most sense\nExploring and deciding between your varied experiences to provide schools with a well-rounded portrayal\nDiscover resources available to you throughout your application process\nIdentify areas of improvement within your existing personal statement

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Understanding Criminal Record Penalties in the Labor Market
DESCRIPTION:This paper studies the earnings and employment penalties associated with criminal records using linked data on criminal justice interactions\, state laws on formal labor market restrictions\, and wages and employment. We estimate fixed effects models that decompose earnings into a worker's portable earnings potential and firm pay premia\, both of which are allowed to shift after a worker acquires a record. We find that sorting into lower-paying firms explains a small share of the record penalty. Legal record restrictions are not concentrated in higher-paying jobs\, meaning that sorting away from them contributes little to the earnings gap. Conditional on earnings potential\, however\, workers with a record are substantially less likely to be employed. The results suggest that criminal record penalties operate primarily by reducing employment and lowering earnings potential at every firm rather than increasing sorting into lower-paying jobs\, although the bulk of the gaps can be attributed to differences that existed prior to acquiring a record.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Department Colloquium | Theories of neural computation underlying learning\, imagination\, reasoning and scaling: of mice and machines
DESCRIPTION:Three remarkable abilities of brains and machines are to: (1) learn new behaviors from a single example\, (2) creatively imagine new possibilities\, (3) learn language\, and (4) perform mathematical reasoning.  I will discuss simple analytic yet quantitatively predictive theories of how (1) mice learn to accurately navigate on the first encounter in a new environment\; (2) how diffusion models creatively imagine exponentially many new images\; (3) how the structure of natural language governs how much data is required to learn it\, and (4) how language models can better do mathematically reasoning.  Theoretical physics approaches are essential in deriving all of these theories\, spanning techniques like statistical mechanics\, pattern formation\, nonlinear dynamics\, high dimensional geometry\, scaling analysis\, and control of entropy.  More generally\, just as biology once provided a new frontier of complexity for physics to study\, I suggest that AI now provides a new frontier in which physics can expand to yield a new\, fundamental scientific understanding of intelligence.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:MIPSE Seminar | Magnetic Reconnection: What do We Know Now\, and What Remains Unsolved
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: \nMagnetic reconnection (MR) is one of the most important transport and energy-release processes in collisionless plasmas. Although governed by highly localized kinetic physics\, MR enables system-scale changes\, often involving explosive conversion of stored magnetic energy into particle energy. MR powers such diverse plasma phenomena as solar and stellar flares\, geomagnetic storms\, and the aurora\, and underlies many of the deleterious effects collectively referred to as space weather. Magnetic reconnection therefore constitutes an important and accessible example of a fundamentally multiscale physical process.\nWhile the global consequences of magnetic reconnection have been understood at a conceptual level for some time\, the detailed physics governing its operation remained elusive until recently. The advent of the Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) mission\, which has provided—and continues to provide—unprecedented in situ measurements\, has supplied both new empirical insight and critical ground truth for theory and numerical modeling. MMS has largely resolved how MR operates at its core: the small spatial region that enables large-scale plasma dynamics. More recent results have begun to illuminate the mechanisms of energy conversion and the physical coupling between this central region and its surrounding environment. This presentation will summarize the current understanding of MR and highlight emerging research directions that follow from these recent advances.\n\nAbout the Speaker: \nDr. Michael Hesse\, who received his PhD from Ruhr-Universität in Bochum\, is Vice Provost for Research and Innovation at the Naval Postgraduate School (NPS)\, where he oversees research priorities that advance the Navy\, Marine Corps\, and Department of Defense. Prior to NPS\, Dr. Hesse was Director of the Science Directorate at NASA’s Ames Research Center\, leading a staff of about 500 engaged in Earth science\, planetary and astrophysical research\, and space biological research. Before joining Ames\, Dr. Hesse spent three years at the University of Bergen in Norway where he led the Geomagnetic Expert Service Centre\, a multi-national consortium providing space weather services to ESA. Prior to moving to Bergen\, Dr. Hesse had a distinguished 25-year career at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC)\, culminating in his role as the Director of the Heliophysics Science Division\, and founding Director of the Community Coordinated Modeling Center (CCMC). Dr. Hesse has published more than 300 papers (H index of 76). He is Fellow of the American Geophysical Union and member of Academia Europea\; and has received several awards including NASA Outstanding Leadership Medal\, NASA Distinguished Service Medal\, and AGU Space Weather and Nonlinear Waves and Processes Prize.\n\nThis seminar is free and open to the public. It will be conducted in person and on Zoom\, please check MIPSE website for details: https://mipse.umich.edu/seminars_2526.php

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Algebraic Geometry Seminar: Moduli of curves and SL_n-bundles
DESCRIPTION:I will discuss some new Artin stack compactifications of the moduli of smooth curves\, which parameterize \"perturbed curves'\" consisting of stacky semistable curves equipped with line bundles that are trivialized away from the rational bridges. This yields an infinite family of stacks all of which admit the classical coarse space of stable curves as a good moduli space. As an application\, we construct a proper and flat moduli of Gieseker SL_n-bundles over the stack of stable curves\, parameterizing SL_n-bundles on perturbed curves subject to a stability condition.  The resulting moduli problem is integral\, lci and has an explicit tangent obstruction theory\; it could be viewed as a version of stable maps into the classifying stack BSL_n. This talk is based on part of joint work in progress with Damiolini\, Halpern-Leistner\, Inchiostro and Stephens.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CCMB/DCMB Weekly Seminar Series featuring Ting Wang\, PhD (Professor of Medicine and Head\, Department of Genetics WashU Medicine)
DESCRIPTION:CCMB/DCMB Seminar by Ting Wang\, PhD\n\n\"Unmasked: transposable elements as drivers and targets in cancer\"\n\nAbstract\n\nTransposable elements (TEs) represent almost half of the human genome. Historically deemed ‘junk DNA’\, recent technological advancements have stimulated a wave of research into the functional impact of TEs on gene-regulatory networks in evolution and development\, as well as in diseases including cancer. The genetic and epigenetic evolution of cancer involves the exploitation of TEs\, whereby TEs contribute directly to cancer-specific gene activities. I will provide a perspective on the role of TEs in cancer as being a ‘double-edged sword’\, both promoting cancer evolution and representing a vulnerability that could be exploited in cancer therapy. \n\nThe CCMB Seminar Series (Sponsored by DCMB) is held at Medical Science Building 1 (MS1)\, Room 4B700\, each Wednesday\, at 4:00 pm EST\, on bioinformatics-related topics.Each seminar is presented by an invited guest speaker. These seminars are live-streamed on Zoom.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:RTG Seminar on Geometry\, Dynamics and Topology: The growth of confined subgroups on a hyperbolic space
DESCRIPTION:Given a metric space X\, we call a discrete subgroup G of Isom(X) confined if the quotient X/G has uniformly bounded injectivity radius. When X is a higher-rank symmetric space\, Fraczyk and Gelander showed that all confined subgroups are lattices. When X is a rank-1 symmetric space\, Gekhtman and Levit showed that all confined subgroups are as “big” as normal subgroups of lattices. In this talk\, I will discuss an analogous result about confined subgroups acting on Gromov hyperbolic spaces and Teichmüller space. Joint work with Ilya Gekhtman\, Wenyuan Yang and Tianyi Zheng.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Student AIM Seminar: Spatially informed biologically interpretable machine learning approaches for analyzing EEG data
DESCRIPTION:Biological neural networks (BNNs) are machine learning models that enhance the biological interpretability of artificial neural networks by modeling neural dynamics and providing insights underlying neural system behavior. In our previous work\, Hodgkin-Huxley neuron models were implemented in BNNs to classify electroencephalogram (EEG) signals. While biologically interpretable\, these models treat each electrode independently and ignore spatial relationships\, limiting their ability to capture large-scale brain dynamics.\n\nHere\, we develop trainable BNNs using time-aware backpropagation applied to networks of biophysically accurate neurons based on modified Hodgkin-Huxley equations\, integrated within feedforward and recurrent architectures. Neuron sets represent brain regions\, and synaptic weights reflect spatial distances and functional connectivity. These BNNs classify consciousness levels from EEG data\, extrapolate deeper brain activity\, and exhibit physiologically observed frequencies\, while hidden-layer neurons remain biologically interpretable. Overall\, spatially informed BNNs can capture deeper structures\, generate emergent spatiotemporal patterns\, and improve cross-subject generalization\, advancing both EEG interpretability and generalizability while bridging neural modeling and modern machine learning.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Porcelains and Power: The Politics of Chinese Art in the Age of American Ascendancy
DESCRIPTION:How can we understand the relationship between art collecting and Western imperialism as more than simply a story of victim and aggressor\, of the plundered and the plunderer? From the Gilded Age to World War II\, elite collectors and museums in the United States transformed from owning a smattering of Chinese porcelains to possessing some of the world's largest and most sophisticated collections of Chinese art.\n\nIn this talk\, historian Ian Shin shows that\, beyond aesthetic taste and economics\, geopolitics were vital to this transformation. Collecting and studying Chinese art honed Americans’ belief that they should dominate Asia and the Pacific Ocean through the ideology of “imperial stewardship.” U.S. imperial stewardship encompassed both genuine curiosity and care for Chinese art\, and the enduring structures of domination that underpinned the growing transpacific art market in the early twentieth century.\n\nFar more than a history of cultural “exchange” between the United States and China\, this is also a history of rivalries and feuds with European curators and enterprising Chinese merchants. Ultimately\, this talk challenges us to come to terms with how our interest in and desire for beautiful art are inextricable from questions of power.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:*This Is Not a Film*
DESCRIPTION:This clandestine documentary\, shot partially on an iPhone and smuggled into France in a cake for a last-minute submission to Cannes\, depicts the day-to-day life of acclaimed director Jafar Panahi (*Offside*\, *The Circle*) during his house arrest in his Tehran apartment. While appealing his sentence - six years in prison and a 20 year ban from filmmaking - Panahi is seen talking to his family and lawyer on the phone\, discussing his plight with Mirtahmasb and reflecting on the meaning of the art of filmmaking. In Persian with English subtitles.\n\nThe film is being shown in conjunction with Sheida Soleimani's exhibition Flyways at the Institute for the Humanities March 19 - May 1\, 2026 and will be followed by a conversation with Sheida Soleimani\, Matthew Biro (History of Art)\, moderated by arts curator Amanda Krugliak.\n\nFree and open to the public. No ticket necessary.

SUMMARY:Performance:\"Re:Frame\" – Dance BFA Concert
DESCRIPTION:*This event is sold out. Limited tickets may be available at the door at 7:15 pm.*\n\nThe Department of Dance presents *Re:Frame* with choreography by senior Bachelor of Fine Arts in Dance majors Emerson Forbes\, Irene Kim\, Julia Lepore\, Ava Menzel\, Ladina Schaller\, and Jessica Serres. \n\n*Film Is a Dream Realized*\, choreographed by Emerson Forbes\, is rooted in the contemporary fusion dance style and vintage Hollywood cinema – and inspired by her great grandfather\, a famous composer for classic films. This piece explores how cinematic elegance can be brought to life through the integration of live dance and projected film elements within a stylized black and white aesthetic. The choreography aims to create a richly textured atmosphere that echoes the expressive energy and timeless sophistication of classic movies. \n\n*decode & ENCRYPT*\, choreographed by Irene Kim\, is inspired by 2016 robotic installation “Can’t Help Myself” by Sun Yuan and Peng Yu and investigates the raw and visceral human toll of living in a high-pressure society. This piece offers the audience the opportunity to witness the quiet “bleeding out” of the personal self that results from the pressure to always be optimized\, to always perform\, to always keep up the appearance of being the best versions of ourselves. \n\n*Flipping Through the Pages*\, choreographed by Julia Lepore\, is a movement trailer based on a self-published novel she wrote titled *Different Fonts*. These two works of art encapsulate the psychology behind dance through fictional characters and an audacious storyline. In watching this piece\, you are immersed in a live action replication of the movement behind the words written on this novel’s pages. Beyond the 10 minutes of performing\, and the 400+ pages of writing\, there is still so much left unwritten…\n\n*Of Something I Left Behind*\, choreographed by Ava Menzel\, investigates time as something felt rather than measured. Through contemporary-based movement\, the work explores themes of remembering\, forgetting\, distortion as time moves forward\, and how nostalgia can feel both comforting and deeply unsettling.\n\n*Who’s there?!*\, choreographed by Ladina Schaller\, serves as a glimpse into a work performed at Nichols Arboretum on April 18\, where on a walk through the forest the audience will encounter fragments of personalities\, whispers of old stories and a world of unanswered questions. Local artists and friends are chipping in to create this world via dance\, live music\, acting and puppetry. \n\n*Pulsafuerte*\, choreographed by Jessica Serres\, explores the consequences of cultural clashing in a place it was unexpected to form. She explores how conflict and presence have an effect on the meshing of ideas and the creation of community.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:'Redefining the Crown' Art Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:\"Artist’s statement: For centuries\, hair has been critical to how human beings understand racial categories\, gender designations\, and class status. 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\"

SUMMARY:Exhibition:CAS Exhibit. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Flyways
DESCRIPTION:Iranian-American artist Sheida Soleimani explores themes of migration\, political exile\, queerness\, and environmental crisis through the wildly imaginative and intricate scenarios she first stages in her studio. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Lynn Galbreath Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Lynn Galbreath\, a Detroit based artist who grew up in Argentina\, is a former recipient of the Creative Artists’ Grant from the Arts Foundation of Michigan and the Michigan Individual Artist Grant from Michigan Council For The Arts. 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.

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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Terence Swafford Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition showcases a decade of artist Terry Swafford’s work in Detroit\, marking the culmination of years spent composing scenes from the untamed edges of urban communities. 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.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:“Power\, Purpose and the Color of Wealth: An Economic Vision that Centers People and the Environments in Which We Live”
DESCRIPTION:Join the Stone Center for Inequality Dynamics as we host Darrick Hamilton​\, University and Henry Cohen Professor of Economics and Urban Policy at The New School. Darrick will present\, “Power\, Purpose and the Color of Wealth: An Economic Vision that Centers People and the Environments in Which We Live.”\n\nAbstract: “This talk will set the stage with a brief presentation of the Color of Wealth series\, an exploration of wealth and economic well-being across seven metropolitan areas: Baltimore\, Boston\, Chicago\, Los Angeles\, Miami\, Tulsa\,  Washington DC. disaggregated by race and ancestry.\n\nWith this backdrop\, the talk will explore the manner in which  asymmetries in power and economic agency\, especially by race and other identity groupings\, link to political economic structures and more macro economic deprivations that plague our economy. Ultimately\, this talk will explore the concepts of purpose\, power\, paradigm and solidarity with a purpose of defining and determining an alternative economic vision for a human rights economy  as the point and mechanism for a well-functioning economy and multiracial democracy.”\n\nDarrick Hamilton is the University Professor and Henry Cohen Professor of Economics and Urban Policy at The New School\, where he also founded and directs the Institute on Race\, Power & Political Economy. He additionally serves as Chief Economist at the AFL-CIO. Widely regarded as one of the nation’s foremost public intellectuals\, Professor Hamilton reimagines how an economy should work—identifying bold opportunities to invest in our human capacity and fostering collaborations that advance economic inclusion\, social equity\, and civic engagement in the United States and around the world.\n\nA pioneer in the economics subfield of identity group stratification\, Professor Hamilton’s research has been featured in The New York Times\, Mother Jones\, Bloomberg Businessweek\, and The Wall Street Journal. He has developed and advised on transformative policy proposals—such as baby bonds\, guaranteed income\, and a federal job guarantee—that have inspired legislation and shifted billions of dollars toward building a fair and inclusive economy.\n\nIn 2025\, Professor Hamilton was named the Katherine Hampson Bessell Fellow at the Harvard Radcliffe Institute and was recognized as a Freedom Scholar by the Marguerite Casey Foundation in its 2020 inaugural class. He has advised national and global leaders on economic policy\, including the U.S. Joint Economic Committee and the Senate Banking Committee and also serves on the board of directors of the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER).\n\nBorn and raised in Brooklyn’s Bedford-Stuyvesant neighborhood\, Professor Hamilton earned his bachelor’s degree from Oberlin College and his Ph.D. in Economics from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.\n\nPlease RSVP to save your seat.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Improved Inference for Nonparametric Regression (joint with G.Cavaliere\, M. Nielsen\, and E. Zanelli)
DESCRIPTION:Nonparametric regression estimators\, including those employed in regression-discontinuity designs (RDD)\, are central to the economist’s toolbox. Their application\, however\, is complicated by the presence of asymptotic bias\, which undermines coverage accuracy of conventional confidence intervals. Extant solutions to the problem include debiasing methods\, such as the widely applied robust bias-corrected (RBC) confidence interval of Calonico et al. (2014\, 2018). We show that this interval is equivalent to a prepivoted interval based on an invalid residualbased bootstrap method. Specifically\, prepivoting performs an implicit bias correction while adjusting the nonparametric regression estimator’s standard error to account for the additional uncertainty introduced by debiasing. This idea can also be applied to other bootstrap schemes\, leading to new implicit bias corrections and corresponding standard error adjustments. We propose a prepivoted interval based on a bootstrap that generates observations from nonparametric regression estimates at each regressor value and show how it can be implemented as an RBCtype interval without the need for resampling. Importantly\, we show that the new interval is shorter than the existing RBC interval. For example\, with the Epanechnikov kernel\, the length is reduced by 17%\, while maintaining accurate coverage probability. This result holds irrespectively of: (a) the evaluation point being in the interior or on the boundary\; (b) the use of a ‘small’ or ‘large’ bandwidths\; (c) the distribution of the regressor and the error term.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Fore-Site (Phase 2): The Stamps Gallery Pillar Project
DESCRIPTION:\n\nFrom September 2025 through August 2026\, Stamps Gallery is partnering in a curatorial collaboration with two Ypsilanti-based\, artist-run project spaces led by Stamps alumni: C.Y.N.K. Studios\, directed by Sally Clegg (Lecturer III and Student Exhibition Coordinator\, MFA ’20) and Abhishek Narula (MFA ’20)\; and Sometimes Space\, directed by Nathan Byrne (Lecturer I\, MFA ’21). Each space hosts dozens of artists annually for exhibitions\, performances\, and events\, fostering experimental work and building community. For this project\, Byrne\, Clegg\, and Narula have been commissioned to reimagine the pillars on Division Street that flank the gallery. In response\, they’ve curated six artists to create new work for the pillars over three cycles:\n\nPhase 1 (September 12 - December 12) artists: Amelia Burns (Cranbrook MFA ’23) and Erin McKenna (MFA ’20)\nPhase 2 (January 12 - April 12) artists: Sally Clegg (MFA ’20) and Kim Karlsrud (MFA ’20)\nPhase 3 (May 12 - August 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.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Quantum Research Institute | Quantum Spin-Mechanics with Color Centers in Diamond: A Potential Platform for Quantum Computing
DESCRIPTION:In-Person: West Hall 411\nZoom: https://umich.zoom.us/j/91761768567?jst=2\n\nAbstract:\nIn a spin-mechanical system\, electron spins are coupled to vibrations of a nanomechanical resonator.  Coherent interactions between single spins and single phonons take place in the quantum regime of spin-mechanics.  A network of these resonators can enable phonon-mediated coupling between distant electron spin\, leading to a mechanical quantum network of spin qubits and providing an experimental platform for developing spin-based quantum computers.  \nIn this talk\, I will discuss our recent advance in achieving ultracoherent GHz diamond nanomechanical resonators and in developing mechanical quantum networks of spin qubits in diamond.  Localization and localization phase transitions induced by deterministic onsite potentials in a mechanical network are also exploited for the realization of extended network connectivity\, which is deemed essential for large-scale fault tolerant quantum computers. \n\nBio:\nHailin Wang received B.S. and Ph.D. degrees in physics from the University of Science and Technology of China and the University of Michigan in 1982 and 1990\, respectively. He was a research investigator at the University of Michigan and subsequently a staff consultant at AT&T Bell Laboratories. He joined the University of Oregon in 1995 where he is now a professor of physics. Dr. Wang has made important contributions to the current understanding of coherent as well as incoherent optical processes in semiconductor nanostructures. He also made the first experimental demonstration of amplitude squeezed light from an injection-locked diode laser and developed a fused silica optical resonator that feature highly directional evanescent tunneling. His work on exciton spin coherence and biexciton coherence has recently led to the first demonstration of electromagnetically induced transparency for interband optical transitions in semiconductors. His current research interest includes optical manipulation of quantum coherences in semiconductors and especially its application in both classical and quantum information processing. Dr. Wang is a recipient of an NSF-CAREER award and is a fellow of the Optical Society of America.

It will not be livestreamed or recorded.\n   \n   As the Japanese Empire expanded in the 1930s and 40s\, it sought to use hydroelectricity to transform colonial Taiwan into an industrial hub. This\, in turn\, relied upon controlling natural and societal conditions in remote mountain valleys. By exploring the consequences of these efforts\, this talk argues for seeing the material basis of Japanese expansion not just in extracted resources but in re-engineered landscapes and communities.\n   \n   John Kanbayashi is assistant professor of history and sociology of science at the University of Pennsylvania. His current book uses rivers and watersheds in Taiwan to understand how Japanese imperialism and its afterlives remade ecologies and societies. Other active research interests include climate science in Japan and agricultural colonization across the Japanese diaspora.\n\n*Accommodation: If there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at sarachit@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.*

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:A Life's Work in Boxes: Poet Perspectives on Archival Collecting and Research
DESCRIPTION:Poet and scholar Rebecca Kosick\, once a student of The Alternative Press co-founder Ken Mikolowski in the U-M Residential College\, recently completed a book about The Alternative Press and will discuss her experience working with the archive from a research perspective. Then\, Detroit poet Mïïgun will join to moderate a conversation between Kosick and Mikolowski\, illuminating their varied perspectives on the work of The Alternative Press and its subsequent life as archival material. \n\nIn 1969 poet and artist couple Ken and Ann Mikolowski began a humble operation called The Alternative Press that would later pull household names like Allen Ginsburg into its orbit. For thirty years they collected poetry and art from their friends and wider circle\, and distributed these creations in manila envelopes through the mail. The archive of their life's-work-worth of material is now held at the University of Michigan Library's Special Collections Research Center.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:The Drafted Nation: Economic and Political Legacies of Conscription (with Siddharth George and Kewei Zhang)
DESCRIPTION:This paper provides the first comprehensive evidence on the multifaceted legacy of military conscription across the world. We construct a new global database of conscription policy reforms linked to hundreds of census and survey data sources. Exploiting cohort-based eligibility cutoffs\, we compare individuals just eligible for service to those just exempt. On average\, conscription increases men's adult socioeconomic status\, driven by higher university attainment\, greater geographic mobility\, and the transferability of military-acquired skills. Effects are largest where the opportunity cost of service is low and reintegration into civilian life is strong. Economic gains extend to households: women who marry conscription-eligible men experience higher living standards\, and their children exhibit lower mortality\, despite no direct effects on women's own education or employment. Conscription also fosters interethnic marriage\, national-language use\, and patriotic attachment\, but simultaneously increases xenophobia and gender conservatism\, revealing a tradeoff between national integration and tolerance. Effects vary widely across countries depending on political institutions\, development\, diversity\, and conscription design. Economic and sociopolitical effects are positively correlated\, suggesting that nation-building is strongest where conscription delivers greater economic returns.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:AAC From All Sides
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a panel discussion featuring those involved with creating\, obtaining\, and using AAC devices. The panel will contain Speech Language Pathologists\, assistive technology specialists\, educators\, engineers\, and resources for obtaining technology. Ask questions\, explore possible career paths\, and expand your knowledge of communication. Welcome to all!\n\nAccording to the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association:\nAssistive and Alternative Communication devices are used by individuals who cannot rely on their speech. Typically\, these individuals with expressive language impairment have disabilities like autism spectrum disorder\, cerebral palsy\, and others. AAC devices can also be used by those who need temporary assistance\, like those recovering from surgery. As the name suggests\, these devices are used to add to the individual's existing communication and give them the opportunity to fully realize their communication capabilities.\n\nAAC devices come in many different forms. Some lower tech options include pointing to letters\, pointing to pictures\, gestures/facial expressions\, and picture exchange communication systems. High tech options include using an app on a digital device and using a speech-generating device. One person's AAC may include one or multiple of these options\, they are all part of the communication system.\n\nInterested? Come learn more!\n\nGenerously made possible by the Larry Motola Linguistics Fund\, established to support the development of curriculum projects and research related to cognitive process and conditions\, and their interaction with language and neurodiversity.\n\nPlease RSVP here: https://forms.gle/6HUGV6Ar8ywvTAok6\n\nWHEN: April 9th\, 2026\n\nWHERE: Online\n\nTIME: 2:30-4:00 PM EST

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Biomedical Engineering (BME 500) Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Bioengineering Human Embryo and Organ Models\n\nAbstract:\nEarly human development remains largely mysterious and challenging to study. In this talk\, I will describe our efforts to harness human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) and bioengineering approaches to create controllable models of human peri-gastrulation development and early organogenesis. These models recapitulate key in vivo developmental landmarks\, including amniotic cavity formation\, amniotic ectoderm-epiblast patterning\, primordial germ cell specification\, embryonic germ layer organization\, yolk sac formation\, and primitive hematopoiesis. Our current work focuses on using these controllable models as experimental platforms to dissect the molecular and genetic mechanisms underlying cell fate decisions\, tissue patterning\, and self-organization during human peri-gastrulation.\n\nI will also discuss our application of bioengineering tools and hPSCs to model critical aspects of early human neural development\, including neural patterning in both brain and spinal cord regions\, along rostrocaudal and dorsoventral axes. Ongoing projects further aim to model key features of human heart and gut tube development\, as well as somitogenesis. Together\, these efforts have established a suite of bioengineered human embryo and organ models with in vivo-like spatiotemporal cell differentiation and organization\, providing powerful platforms for studying human development\, physiology\, and disease.\n\nBio:\nDr. Jianping Fu is a Professor of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Michigan whose research bridges bioengineering\, stem cell biology\, and developmental biology to advance understanding of human development and disease. He is internationally recognized for pioneering work in “Artificial Embryos\,” named one of MIT Technology Review’s 10 Breakthrough Technologies of 2018 and “the Method of 2023” by Nature Methods.

SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:International Students Career Series: How to Navigate Small Talk
DESCRIPTION:In the United States\, many people participate in what is called small talk\, where they make conversation with strangers or acquaintances about non-controversial topics\, such as the weather\, sports\, or popular television shows. Small talk is one of the ways in American cultureto chat about harmless topics to establish a connection and start to build a friendship.For example\, while waiting for an interview\, in line at a M-Den\, or an elevator on campus\, don’t be startled if a stranger says something to you like\, “Did you watch the Football Game last night? What a game!” They might also make a joke about the long line you’re both in\, or comment on the current situation.This workshop is open to all students\, so if you are interested in learning more about small talk\, now it’s your chance to sign up. In this workshop\, we will educate you on what small talk is\, and you will also have the chance to practice small talk with peers!  This event's information is shown in Handshake as well as on the Happening @ Michigan calendar so that it will be seen by a larger number of U-M Students.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:IOE 899: Anne Collins McLaughlin
DESCRIPTION:Our senses and minds construct our reality. Both are inherently limited and we naturally seek tools to improve our experiences. Anyone who covers their ears as a siren roars past\, turns on closed captions\, or dons sunglasses on a bright day has altered ‘reality.’ As technology advances\, we can also control reality with cutting-edge extended reality (XR) technologies\, which add to\, subtract from\, and remap sounds and visuals in our world. A new and unexplored form of XR cognition aids involve “diminished reality\,” where visuals and sounds from the environment are eliminated to direct focal attention\, reduce distraction\, and relieve the operator of the need to exert selective attention. This presentation will cover the perceptual and mental processes underlying XR cognition aids\, with methods of testing the effectiveness of these aids\, current domains of inquiry\, and results from several laboratory experiments on how altering visual and auditory reality can affect performance\, experience\, and learning.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:IES Energy Seminar Series - Quantifying and Remunerating Flexibility of Grid-Connected Devices
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nWe discuss how emerging trends in electricity markets provide economic and environmental incentives for the development of new and flexible technologies capable of shifting loads across space and time and across scales. Harnessing flexibility is critical for the power grid as this seeks to absorb increasing amounts of intermittent renewable power.  However\, participation of devices in highly dynamic/volatile markets can lead to fast degradation and lost value\, which hinders participation. This raises the need to quantify the value of different types of flexibility provided by devices and to potentially create new markets that properly remunerate such flexibility. We illustrate the concepts via applications in energy storage\, data centers\, and electrochemical manufacturing. \n\nBiography:\nVictor M. Zavala is the Baldovin-DaPra Professor in the Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and is affiliated with the Mathematics and Computer Science Division at Argonne National Laboratory. He holds a B.Sc. degree from Universidad Iberoamericana and a Ph.D. degree from Carnegie Mellon University\, both in chemical engineering. He is an associate editor for ACS-I&ECR and is on editorial board of the journals Mathematical Programming Computation and Computers & Chemical engineering. He is a recipient of NSF and DOE Early Career awards and of the Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers (PECASE). His research interests include data science\, control\, and optimization and applications to chemical\, energy\, and environmental systems.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Department of Astronomy 2025-2026 Colloquium Series Presents:
DESCRIPTION:\"The Search for Habitable-Zone Planets around the Nearest Stars:  Challenges\, Opportunities and Side Quests\"\n\nAbstract: In this talk I will discuss the challenges associated with the discovery of terrestrial mass planets orbiting in the Habitable Zones of the nearest stars\, and how these challenges have required us to develop extraordinarily stable and sensitive spectrometer in the optical and near-infrared to measure the subtle Doppler wobble introduced by these planets. These tools\, coupled with new analysis techniques are beginning to reveal such planets\, but highlighting also the challenges of stellar activity. I will discuss the development and evolution of some of these instruments (HPF & NEID) and the progress being made in tacking stellar activity. I will also highlight some of the discoveries made along the way\, like the most eccentric transiting planet\, a rare population of giant planets transiting M dwarfs\, the confirmation of GAIA’s first astrometric exoplanet discovery\, and systems which offer us unique insights into spots and activity.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:GEOMETRY SEMINAR:  ERGODIC AVERAGES OVER COMPACT SUBMANIFOLDS AND APPLICATION TO DIOPHANTINE APPROXIMATION
DESCRIPTION:We prove a pointwise ergodic theorem for averages over dilates of a compact submanifold for a measure-preserving Rd-action\, under the assumption of exponential mixing. We also obtain error rates\, giving explicit bounds on the speed of convergence. This has an application in multiplicative Diophantine approximation providing a partial analogue of Khintchine’s 0− 1 law. This is a joint work with Reynold Fregoli and Dmitry Kleinbock.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Jina Kim\, \"at the end of the world\, let there be you: Crip-of-Color Writing in the Apocalyptic Now\"
DESCRIPTION:In this lecture\, Jina Kim will discuss her new book\, Care at the End of the World: Dreaming of Infrastructure in Crip-of-Color Writing (Duke UP 2025)\, which demonstrates why we need radical disability politics and aesthetics for navigating contemporary crises of care. She will also debut some new work on the politics and poetics of crip-of-color friendship\, and discuss the forms of relation and care that emerge because of--not despite--disability. Care at the End of the World brings a disability lens to bear on feminist\, queer\, and crip-of-color writing following major US welfare reform\, which passed in 1996. Looking to authors such as Octavia Butler\, Jesmyn Ward\, Leah Lakshmi Piepzna-Samarasinha\, and Aurora Levins Morales\, Kim examines how this body of literature grapples with the disabling effects of state austerity measures and interrupts dominant narratives about who deserves care. She calls forward the critiques and possibilities in their literary representations of infrastructure\, honoring the imaginative work that these writers do to envision alternative infrastructural arrangements in a world that refuses to support them.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Nanoelectrochemistry for Multi-Dimensional Bioanalysis
DESCRIPTION:Nanoscale in-vivo studies on the signaling of a broad range of neurotransmitters are essential to understand brain functions and diseases. In this talk\, I will first describe our efforts in the development and creation of versatile electroanalytical liquid-liquid junction probes to enable the detection of redox-inactive transmitters. By using the liquid/liquid approach\, we circumvent the challenges in the measurement of non-redox-active neurotransmitters using nano-electroanalytical methods. In addition\, I will share our recent efforts in developing dual-channel nano-carbon-liquid/liquid junction electrodes for multi-modal analysis of both redox-active and non-redox-active analytes. Then I will present our studies on high spatiotemporal bioanalysis using model living organisms. We employed scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM) to position our nanoprobes accurately with nm spatial resolution. Our results show that our nanoprobes\, with sizes as small as 15 nm in radius\, can detect and quantify the acetylcholine neurotransmission in real time\, at a high spatiotemporal resolution\, with a high signal-to-noise ratio\, and in biologically relevant fluids. The nano/micro-electroanalytical platform we developed is enabling a variety of new measurements on signaling dynamics across a diverse range of length scales\, i.e.\, at single cells\, at single synapses\, in living mice brains\, and will create exciting opportunities in studying transmission from various neuronal models and in our understanding of neurological disorders from a distinctive perspective. \n  \n\nAcknowledgment: I am grateful to the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation\, National Science Foundation\, National Institutes of Health\, Research Corporation for Science Advancement\, Frederick Gardner Cottrell Foundation\, The Paul G. Allen Frontiers Group\, Chan-Zuckerberg Biohub Chicago\, and the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign for the support of our research. All the work that I will present is not possible without the hardworking and dedicated efforts of Shen group members.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:The Miller-Converse Lecture: States of Distrust: Science and Politics in America
DESCRIPTION:The relationship between science and politics is inevitably fraught. This is particularly the case in the United States in the 21st century: partisans are more polarized in their trust in scientists than in virtually any other societal institution. James Druckman identifies the origins and consequences of that polarization. Polarized scientific trust disincentivizes partisans from compromising with one another and prompts them to politicize science. It also generates massive discoordination between states\, with severe consequences for public goods provision (particularly with regard to public health). Druckman offers a path forward\, for building trust in scientists with the goal of reducing polarization and de-politicizing science.\n\nJames N. Druckman is a Professor of Political Science at the University of Rochester. He previously was the Payson S. Wild Professor and a Faculty Fellow at the Institute for Policy Research at Northwestern University. He is also an Honorary Professor of Political Science at Aarhus University in Denmark. Druckman has published approximately 200 articles and book chapters in political science\, communication\, economics\, science\, and psychology journals. He has authored\, co-authored\, or co-edited seven books. His recent books include Partisan Hostility and American Democracy: Explaining Political Divides (University of Chicago Press\, 2024)\, Equality Unfulfilled: How Title IX's Policy Design Undermines Change to College Sports (Cambridge University Press\, 2023)\, and Experimental Thinking: A Primer on Social Science Experiments (Cambridge University Press\, 2022).\n\nThe Miller-Converse Lecture is the University of Michigan’s preeminent lecture series on American Electoral Politics. The Series honors the legacy of CPS Founder Warren Miller and former CPS and ISR Director Philip Converse.\n\nThis event will take place live at ISR Thompson Street Room 1430\, any may also be live-streamed on Zoom:\n\nThis lecture will also be streamed on Zoom:\n\nTime: Apr 9\, 2026 04:00 PM Eastern Time (US and Canada)\nJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://umich.zoom.us/j/96954959124\n\nMeeting ID: 969 5495 9124\nPasscode: 825206

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Why so many “slow” species? Rethinking trade-offs in tropical forests
DESCRIPTION:Seminar Summary - In this talk\, I examine how functional constraints shape ecological strategies and ultimately the diversity of tropical forests. I show that the classic trade-off frameworks that organize much of ecological thinking are more flexible than often assumed: constraints can vary across scales\, traits can provide redundant solutions to the same functional challenge\, and key functional axes can become decoupled. Together\, these patterns suggest that biodiversity may emerge from the interaction of multiple\, partially independent dimensions of organismal function.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CCPS Lecture. The Trauma of Serfdom: The Psychological Legacy of Unfree Labor in Poland
DESCRIPTION:Coerced labor was a defining feature of the early modern world. While Atlantic slavery has received most scholarly attention\, Eastern European serfdom remains comparatively understudied. Twentieth-century historiography portrayed it as relatively meek system. In his book *Chamstwo*\, Kacper Pobłocki challenges this view by exposing the profound brutality of serfdom. As Adam Bućkiewicz observed in 1830\, Polish serfs “lived as if enveloped in a foggy\, heavy\, and putrid atmosphere.” Pobłocki argues that peasant culture emerged as a creative response to systemic class violence—for instance\, the ritual cultivation of matted hair\, the Polish plait\, functioned as a form of vernacular therapy.\n   \n   Around 19 percent of Poles today suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder—a rate exceeding the global average of 5 to 10 percent. This is typically attributed to World War II\, yet Pobłocki’s research suggests that its roots reach deeper. In the sequel to *Chamstwo*\, he examines how the first generation of peasants freed from serfdom coped with the psychological burden of their parents’ subjugation\, revealing how they developed strategies to free themselves from its legacy. Remarkably\, these strategies—devised by largely illiterate peasants at the turn of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries—anticipate contemporary psychological insights into trauma recovery.\n   \n   Kacper Pobłocki is a social anthropologist\, writer\, and associate professor at the University of Warsaw. He is a graduate of the Central European University and a former fellow at the Center for Place\, Culture and Politics at CUNY (directed by David Harvey). He has published academic articles in journals such as the *International Journal of Urban and Regional Research* and has authored two books in Polish: *Spatial Origins of Capitalism* (2017)\, which received the “Economicus” Award for the best Polish economics book of the year\, and *Chamstwo* (2021)\, which was a finalist for the “Nike” —Poland’s most prestigious literary award. His current work intersects historical anthropology and psychology and deals with the experience of serfdom and its social\, political and psychological aftermath.\n   \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at gosiak@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:GISC Event. Senses of Mourning: Moharram Performances in Shiʿi Iran from the Qajar to the Covid Era
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, April 9\, 2026\, 5:00 PM\n   Location: 110 Weiser Hall (1st floor)\, 500 Church St\, Ann Arbor\, MI\n   RSVP: http://myumi.ch/79WRE\n   \n   Join the University of Michigan Global Islamic Studies Center (GISC) on Thursday\, April 9\, 2026\, in 110 Weiser Hall at 5:00 PM for a talk by Dr. Babak Rahimi (University of California\, San Diego) on his new book *Senses of Mourning: Moharram Performances in Shiʿi Iran from the Qajar to the Covid Era* (University of Pennsylvania Press\, 2026).\n   \n   Through a tactile\, affective\, and sensory lens\, this talk examines how devotional Moharram performances in Shiʿi Iran have changed over time. Dr. Rahimi analyzes Moharram in Iran through the five senses—sight\, sound\, touch\, smell\, and taste—highlighting how religious practices function as evolving embodied experiences. Senses of Mourning illuminates the changing embodied dimensions of religious practice and situates Moharram rituals within the broader sociopolitical and global transformations of Shiʿi Iran–an especially important site of study in the current time of conflict.\n   \n   \n   Meet the speaker:\n   \n   Dr. Babak Rahimi is Professor of Culture\, Religion\, and Technology at the University of California\, San Diego. He is also Director of the Program for the Study of Religion and Director of the Middle East Studies Program. Rahimi’s first monograph\, *Theater-State and the Formation of the Early Modern Public Sphere in Iran: Studies on Safavid Muharram Rituals\, 1590–1641 C.E. *(Brill\, 2011)\, offers a historical-sociological exploration of the interplay between public rituals\, state power\, and social dynamics in the Safavid era.\n   \n   His latest book\, *Senses of Mourning: Moharram Performances in Shi‘i Iran from the Qajar to the Covid Era *(University of Pennsylvania Press\, 2026)\, examines the role of sensory religion in Iranian historical contexts. Rahimi is also the editor of *Theatre in the Middle East: Between Performance and Politics* (Anthem Press\, 2020) and *Performing Iran: Culture\, Performance\, Theatre *(I.B. Tauris\, 2021). In addition\, he co-edited *Social Media in Iran* (with David Faris\, SUNY Press\, 2015)\, *The Wiley Blackwell History of Islam* (with Armando Salvatore and Roberto Tottoli\, Wiley Blackwell\, 2018)\, and *Muslim Pilgrimage in the Modern World* (with Peyman Eshaghi\, University of North Carolina Press\, 2019).\n   \n   His research focuses on the intersections of culture\, religion\, and technology\, with particular attention to the historical and social contexts of early modern Islamicate societies and the Global South.\n\nThe University of Pennsylvania Press is offering a 30% press discount on Dr. Rahimi's book to our audience members and friends with the code PENN-RAHIMI30. Visit: https://www.pennpress.org/9781512828344/senses-of-mourning/ to purchase. \n   \n   This event is brought to you by the University of Michigan Global Islamic Studies Center as part of our ongoing \"Qahwah & Authors\" series.\n   \n   For more events from the Global Islamic Studies Center at the University of Michigan\, please visit ii.umich.edu/islamicstudies.\n\n*Accommodation: If there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Living with Treaties Conference
DESCRIPTION:In-person and virtual registration: http://myumi.ch/61n9J\n\nJoin us April 9-11\, 2026\, for Living with Treaties: The 1817 Project\, the University of Michigan\, and the Western Expansion of the United States. This hybrid conference will explore the role of treaties in the development of both the University of Michigan and the state of Michigan\, while considering how their effects continue to resonate locally\, regionally\, and nationally today for an Indigenous present and future.\n\nThe conference will bring together members of Anishinaabe Tribal communities\; U-M faculty\, staff\, and students\; K-12 educators\; scholars\; tribal historians\; and community activists for roundtable discussions\, panels\, and workshops that aim to inform and connect with non-specialist audiences.\n\nConference sessions will focus on key themes that include the role of treaties in the founding and development of the University of Michigan\, such as the 1817 Treaty of Fort Meigs\; the ongoing impact of 19th-century treaty agreements on tribal communities in the region\; and the ways in which these treaties continue to shape contemporary Native activism and legal efforts. Discussions will also explore the broader histories of colonization and Indigenous dispossession across what is now the state of Michigan and the Midwest region of the U.S\, with an eye to how local and regional histories provide valuable insights into broader national patterns.\n\nThe conference is free and open to all\, and will be livestreamed and recorded. Registration is encouraged but not required. We will send out reminder emails and event updates when you register.\n\nThe Living with Treaties: The 1817 Project\, the University of Michigan\, and the Western Expansion of the United States Conference is part of The 1817 Project: Land\, Culture\, Memory\, and Repair\, one of the major research initiatives of the University of Michigan’s Inclusive History Project. Led by Eric Hemenway\, Bethany Hughes\, and Michael Witgen\, The 1817 Project is a multi-disciplinary examination of the foundational land transfer by the Ojibwe\, Odawa\, and Boodewaadamii nations in the 1817 Treaty of Fort Meigs (also known as the Treaty of the Maumee Rapids)\, which was part of the University of Michigan’s 1817 origins in Detroit and subsequent relocation to Ann Arbor\, as well the university’s ongoing connections to Indigenous land and contemporary issues of Native American student experience. Learn more about The 1817 Project at https://inclusivehistory.umich.edu/project-site/the-1817-project/.\n\nThe Living with Treaties: The 1817 Project\, the University of Michigan\, and the Western Expansion of the United States Conference is presented by the Inclusive History Project in partnership with the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies (EIHS) and with the support of the Bentley Historical Library\, Clements Library\, the Department of American Culture\, the Department of History\, the Marsal Family School of Education\, the Native American Student Association\, the Native American Studies Program\, Rackham Graduate School\, Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design\, and the University of Michigan Museum of Art (UMMA).\n\nFor questions or more information\, contact inclusivehistory@umich.edu.\n\n--\n\nSchedule & Panel Descriptions\n\nDay 1\nThursday\, April 9\, 2026\, Pendleton Room\, Michigan Union\n\nWelcome & Keynote Roundtable\n5:30pm – 8:30pm\n\nWhat Does it Mean to Live with Treaties? A Roundtable on Indigenous History\n\nThis keynote roundtable will bring together several renowned Indigenous scholars with expertise in Indigenous and U.S. history\, as well as in tribal\, federal\, and constitutional law. Together\, they will reflect on the past\, present\, and future of Indigenous History\, including the fundamental issue of treaties and their downstream effects into the present. A central theme of this session is: where did Indigenous history start from\, where is it going\, and what challenges and obstacles remain within the field? The panel will also consider the more specific question of treaties\, land\, and dispossession within a broader\, comparative framework that builds upon recent studies of “land grab” politics across U.S. history as a whole. Additionally\, the speakers will reflect on a second theme central to their scholarship: that U.S. history cannot be understood without recognizing the central role of Indigenous histories and experiences.\n\n5:30 – 6:30pm: Reception with light fare with the panelists.\n6:30 – 7:00pm: Conference Opening with Emcee Bethany Hughes and Welcome Song shared by Stick City\, U-M’s Native American Student Association’s Drum Group.\n7:00 – 8:30pm: Opening Remarks by U-M President Grasso and former EIHS Director John Carson followed by the keynote roundtable\, and public Q&A.\n\nAll events are open to the public. This roundtable is made possible through the partnership of the IHP-1817 Project and the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies\, who are co-sponsoring this event as part of their annual lecture series.\n\nSpeakers: Maggie Blackhawk\, Ned Blackhawk\, Matthew Fletcher\, Michael Witgen\n\nModerator: Greg Dowd\n\n--\nDay 2\nFriday\, April 10\, 2026\, Kuenzel Room\, Michigan Union\n\nDay 2 Welcome & Session 1\n9:15am – 11:00am\n\nWhy Study Michigan Now? Situating the University of Michigan and the Great Lakes Region in the Broader Histories of Native American Dispossession\, Removal\, “Land Grab” Politics\, and U.S. Higher Education\n\nThis panel takes as a starting point the founding moment represented by the land transfer to U-M in Article 16 of the 1817 Treaty of Fort Meigs\, but widens the scope of inquiry to include subsequent treaties and land transfer schemes that facilitated the development of the University and the state of Michigan. This panel will present the “receipts\,” to visually represent the transfer of wealth from Native people to the citizens of the state of Michigan.\n\nThis panel will demonstrate that the histories of U-M\, the state of Michigan\, and the broader Great Lakes region are crucial contexts for understanding the broader histories of dispossession\, removal\, land grab politics\, and the development of American higher education. Discussion of the 1817 Project\, including an explanation of its origins and a showcase of its ongoing work\, will illustrate how the project is addressing fundamental questions of U.S. history.\n\nSpeakers: Jay Cook\, Michael Witgen\, Jonathan Quint\, Gabrielle Ione Hickmon\n\n--\nDay 2 Session 2\n11:15am – 12:30pm\n\nUniversities and Indigenous Dispossession\n\nThis panel will explore the deep links between colonization\, Indigenous dispossession\, and the growth of colleges and universities in the United States. While the 1862 Morrill Land Grant College Act is often cited as a pivotal moment in the history of American higher education\, centering the narrative on the mid-nineteenth century risks obscuring the broader role that Indigenous land played in underwriting American colleges and universities. Long before the Morrill Act\, institutions such as the University of Michigan relied on land appropriated through treaties to finance operations\, expand campuses\, and diversify educational opportunities for students. At the same time\, public domain land was being used for internal improvements\, with universities serving as part of this larger project of development. The Morrill Act extended and formalized these practices\, redistributing millions of acres of Indigenous land to fund the expansion of higher education across the United States. By bringing the pre- and post-Morrill Act eras into conversation\, this panel will show how Indigenous land has remained a foundational resource for American higher education from its beginnings through the present.\n\nSpeakers: Mary Shi\, Jon Parmenter\, Alyssa Mt. Pleasant\n\nChair: Ned Blackhawk\n\n--\nDay 2 Session 3\n1:30pm – 2:45pm\n\nHow to Read A Treaty: Legal Battles and the Continuing Impact of U.S.-Anishinaabeg Treaties\n\nThis panel will demonstrate how important Michigan-area treaties such as the 1836 Washington Treaty and 1855 Treaty of Detroit continue to shape the lives of the Anishinaabe people of the state\, and how their meaning and enforcement remain subjects of legal challenges and political activism. To show the continuing impact of treaties\, and the ways in which they serve as foundational documents of Anishinaabeg-U.S. political and legal relations\, our speakers will draw from their experience as legal scholars\, jurists\, litigators\, and expert witnesses. Collectively\, they will discuss cases such as Little Traverse Bay Bands of Odawa v. Whitmer\, which considered whether the 1855 Treaty of Detroit created a reservation for the LTBB Odawa in northern Michigan\, as well as current litigation on the Line 5 Pipeline in the Straits of Mackinac and the broader historical contexts of these cases.\n\nSpeakers: Matthew Fletcher\, Riyaz Kanji\, James McClurken\n\nChair: Maggie Blackhawk\n\n--\nDay 2 Session 4\n3:00pm – 4:15pm\n\nOn the Hidden Histories of Public Domain Land\n\nThis panel will explore the creation of public lands in the Michigan Territory and state through the multiple treaties negotiated by the federal government with the Indigenous peoples of Michigan. Historically\, federal officials pressured tribes in Michigan to agree to the extinction of Native title to their lands\, even when there was no immediate demand for those lands. This meant not only that tribes were deprived of a valuable asset\, but also that this asset was able to appreciate in value until such time as it was sold by the state. In order to convince Native peoples to sign these treaties\, the 1836 Washington and 1855 Detroit treaties guaranteed Native peoples the right to hunt\, fish\, and harvest on ceded territory not yet converted into private property. Reinforcing the enduring relevance of treaties across time\, this panel will focus on the protests\, activism\, and legal battles that have emerged over Indigenous resource rights in Michigan\, all of which revolve around differing interpretations of land and treaties. The panel will center the experiences and insights of community members who participated in these events.\n\nSpeakers: Mae Wright\, Emily Proctor\n\nChair: Eric Hemenway\n\n--\nDay 3\nSaturday\, April 11\, 2026\, Forum Hall\, 4th Floor\, Palmer Commons\n\nDay 3 Welcome & Session 5\n9:00am – 10:30am\n\nHow to Think About the Origins of Indian Removal Politics From a Great Lakes Perspective\n\nThis panel will highlight how two Michigan Anishinaabe communities\, the Pokagon Band of Boodewaadamii and the Burt Lake Band of Odawa and Ojibwe Indians\, had different experiences with removal and federal recognition\, shaping their distinct paths and histories. It will combine historical analysis of the development of various nineteenth-century land companies and land transfer schemes with presentations by community representatives who can discuss the resistance of their communities to Indian Removal\, as well as how they have fought or are still fighting to have their sovereignty and territory recognized by the federal government. This panel will discuss the shifting understandings and contexts of Indian Removal\, focusing on examples from Michigan and the broader Great Lakes Basin\, such as encroachment from settler colonists\, forced migration by military forces\, and Indian Boarding schools\, that illuminate nationally significant aspects of Indian Removal policy.\n\nSpeakers: Wenona T. Singel\, Blaire Morseau-Topache\n\nChair: Michael Witgen\n\n--\nDay 3 Session 6\n10:45am – 12:00pm\n\nTeaching Native American and Treaty History in K-12 Classrooms\n\nThis panel brings together educators from public schools and library professionals to share their experiences and insights on teaching Native American history in a range of educational settings. Panelists will discuss best practices for engaging students\, building inclusive curricula and lesson plans\, and addressing the gaps and challenges that persist in public education. Drawing on their experience teaching Native American history\, they will reflect on what has proven most effective\, what barriers remain\, and how educators can collaborate to move this work forward.\n\nSpeakers: Joe Erdmann\, Kara Johnson\, Annemarie Conway\n\nChair: Eric Hemenway\n\n--\nDay 3 Conference Wrap-up with Closing Remarks by Dr. Michael Witgen\n12:00 – 12:15pm\n\n--\nDay 3 Living with Treaties Community Connections Forum\n12:00pm – 3:00pm\n\nEqual parts resource fair\, poster session\, and tabling event\, the Community Connections Forum will serve as a platform for fostering connections among attendees\, the 1817 Project\, U-M campus partners\, and student organizations connected to the themes of the conference.\n\nDJ set by Sicangu Lakota multi-genre music artist\, educator\, and storyteller Frank Waln.\n\n--\nDay 3 Concurrent Breakout Workshops for K-12 Educators*\n1:15pm – 2:45pm\n\nTeaching Native American and Treaty History in Public Classrooms\n\nThis session will consist of teaching workshops designed for K-12 educators\, with two separate workshops targeted for elementary\, junior\, and high school level instructors. The workshops will include short preparatory presentations on subjects relevant to the conference\, such as treaties or public domain land\, with accompanying guidance on how to teach the subject matter. K-12 instructor participants will receive pre-prepared instructional materials at the start of the workshop\, with additional materials provided at the conclusion.\n\nFacilitators: Eric Hemenway\, Jared Aumen\, Madeline McShannock\, Joy Kooyer\, Jack Stearns
