SUMMARY:Performance:Jared Deck
DESCRIPTION:“One of ten new artists you need to know”—Rolling Stone Country\n\nJared Deck has been praised for his \"powerful\, beautiful voice\" by Alejandro Escovedo. \"The battle has always been internal\, overcoming my own failures and working to improve\,\" he says. Raised on the dusty plains of an Oklahoma family farm\, Jared worked in the fields as well as the town grocery\, owned by his parents. \"In a community of 1\,200 people\, big dreams seem impossible. We're taught to manage expectations\, put our nose down\, and get to work.\" Later he worked in an oilfield and a factory. During the Great Recession he got by with a job as a pianist in a Black church\, where over the next six years\, he received an unparalleled musical education. His songs tell stories in an honest voice of Midland America. \"The American Dream\" won first place in the annual Woody Guthrie Folk Festival Songwriting Competition. And on top of all this\, he was recently elected to the Oklahoma House of Representatives. Returning from Folk Festival\, Jared has a recent release\, \"Bully Pulpit.”.\n\n\nPlease visit https://mutotix.umich.edu/3837/3838 for more detail.

During his first years of adolescence\, Muzamil grows up like other children\, but sometimes feels uneasy about his future. When Muzammil turns 19\, he begins grappling with a holy man's prediction that he will die when he turns twenty.\n\nFilm Facts & Background:\nSince few films had been produced in Sudan since independence in 1956\, You Will Die at Twenty was only the country's eighth feature film. Filmmaker Amjad Abu Alala\, who was born in Dubai to Sudanese parents\, shot the film in northern Sudan during the upheavals of the Sudanese revolution and despite challenges in a country without a film industry and under the Islamist government of the time.\n__________________\nThis African Muslim Film Festival is brought to you by the Global Islamic Studies Center and cosponsored by the African Studies Center\, Arab and Muslim American Studies\, the Center for Middle East and North African Studies\, Digital Islamic Studies Curriculum\, the Department of Afroamerican and African Studies\,  the Department of Film\, Television\, and Media\, the Department of Middle Eastern Studies\, the Department of Political Science\, and the Sawyer Seminar on the Africana Muslim and Genealogies of White Supremacy.\n\nVisit http://watch.eventive.org/amff for more details.\n\nWant to hear about similar events from U-M Islamic Studies?

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Early Astronomy in the University of Michigan Collections
DESCRIPTION:Trace how astronomy was developed\, studied\, and disseminated through the centuries\, from 1500 BCE to the Renaissance. On display is material drawn from the University of Michigan collections dealing with the history of early astronomy: manuscripts\, early printed books\, and artifacts illustrating Mesopotamian\, Greek\, Islamic\, and Western European astronomy.\n\nThis exhibit and its permanent online counterpart (https://umlib.us/earlyastronomy) are part of the Aratus Project\, which was sponsored by the National Science Foundation and led by Prof. Francesca Schironi. The core of the project has been to study Aratus’ \"Phaenomena\,\" the most important poem on stars and constellations of the Graeco-Roman ancient world\, and its exegetical tradition. Read an annotated edition and English translation of \"Phaenomena\" and its commentaries (https://aratus.classics.lsa.umich.edu/). The physical and online exhibits place this research work within its later intellectual and historical context.\n\nCurated by: John Steele\, Professor of the History of the Exact Sciences in Antiquity\, Department of Egyptology and Assyriology\, Brown University\; Francesca Schironi\, U-M Professor of Classical Studies\; Evyn Kropf\, U-M Librarian for Middle Eastern & North African Studies\; Pablo Alvarez\, U-M Curator (Special Collections Research Center).\n\nCheck Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours: https://myumi.ch/2mx44

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Humanize the Numbers
DESCRIPTION:Prison Creative Arts Project presents an exhibition of collaborative photography at the Detroit Historical Museum (5401 Woodward Ave. in Detroit)\, open now through May 21st.\n\nA public reception will be held on March 9th\, 6:00–9:00 PM\, with a panel of previous workshop participants at 7:00 PM.\n\nWe hope you will be able to see the exhibit\, and please be in touch if you have any questions.\n\nHumanize the Numbers shows the perspectives of men in Michigan prisons. The prison system regulates every part of an inmate's identity. Instead of using their name\, they are given an ID number. Visiting room photos and mug shots are tightly regulated. Personal info is recorded: height\, weight\, etc. In the process\, their humanity is denied.\n\nThis exhibit at the Detroit Historical Museum reveals the faces and stories of those in prison. It lifts up the voices of those who have been silenced by the criminal legal system. The Humanize the Numbers project gives them a freedom not normally allowed in prison. They share their stories with the world outside. By doing so\, those in prison reclaim their humanity.\n\nMuseum hours\nThursdays–Saturdays: 10:00 AM–5:00PM \nSundays: 1:00–5:00 PM

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Books with Buddies
DESCRIPTION:Register: https://bit.ly/LGBTQ-UM-Events\n\nJoin the Spectrum Center Programming Board for brunch and a guided book club-style discussion of the 119-page novella *The Empress of Salt and Fortune* by Nghi Vo\, snacks provided! A limited number of digital copies are available for claim via the registration link. Book summary:\n\n\"A young royal from the far north is sent south for a political marriage in an empire reminiscent of imperial China. Her brothers are dead\, her armies and their war mammoths long defeated and caged behind their borders. Alone and sometimes reviled\, she must choose her allies carefully.\n\nRabbit\, a handmaiden\, sold by her parents to the palace for the lack of five baskets of dye\, befriends the emperor's lonely new wife and gets more than she bargained for.\n\nAt once feminist high fantasy and an indictment of monarchy\, this evocative debut follows the rise of the empress In-yo\, who has few resources and fewer friends. She's a northern daughter in a mage-made summer exile\, but she will bend history to her will and bring down her enemies\, piece by piece.\"\n\nSpectrum Center Event Accessibility Statement:\nThe Spectrum Center is dedicated to working towards offering equitable access to all of the events we organize. If you have an accessibility need you feel may not be automatically met at this event\, there is space to report that in the registration\, or you can fill out our Event Accessibility Form\, found at http://bit.ly/SCaccess.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:\"Maasai Remix\" Screening and Discussion
DESCRIPTION:The Department of Afroamerican and African Studies and the Department of Anthropology proudly present:\n\nMAASAI REMIX\nSunday\, March 12\, 2023\; 7 p.m.\n\nFree admission\; doors open at 6 p.m.\n\nFollowing the screening\, hear from the filmmakers\, Kelly Askew (Chair\, U-M Anthropology) and Ron Mulvihill. They will be joined by Queenae Taylor Mulvihill and two of the Maasai personalities featured in the film: Evalyne Mkulati Leng’arwa and Eliah Parpulis Madukuli.\n\n\nABOUT THE FILM:\n\"Maasai Remix\" follows three Maasai individuals who—in the United Nations\, a Tanzanian village\, an American university—confront challenges and bring hope to their community by drawing strength from local traditions\, modifying them when necessary\, and melding them with new resources. Adam Ole Mwarabu advocates for Maasai pastoralists rights to land in international political spheres.

SUMMARY:Performance:Vanessa Carlton
DESCRIPTION:Pitchfork called Vanessa Carlton's \"A Thousand Miles\" \"the pop song that launched a generation of piano lessons.\" But Vanessa has released five albums since that song came out in 2002\, each one revealing more of herself as a songwriter. “Always building up\, falling apart. Love is an art\,\" sings Vanessa Carlton on the title track of her new \"Love Is an Art.\" Like the recording itself\, the song is a meditation on the eternal seesaw that is human connection: the push\, the pull\, the balance\, the bottoming out. It's that constantly evolving nature of love Vanessa explores\, from romantic\, to parental\, to the friends that hold us up and the leaders that repeatedly let us down. And on tracks like the album's opener\, \"I Can't Stay the Same\,\" that also includes the relationship with the person staring back at us in the mirror\, each and every morning.

During his first years of adolescence\, Muzamil grows up like other children\, but sometimes feels uneasy about his future. When Muzammil turns 19\, he begins grappling with a holy man's prediction that he will die when he turns twenty.\n\nFilm Facts & Background:\nSince few films had been produced in Sudan since independence in 1956\, You Will Die at Twenty was only the country's eighth feature film. Filmmaker Amjad Abu Alala\, who was born in Dubai to Sudanese parents\, shot the film in northern Sudan during the upheavals of the Sudanese revolution and despite challenges in a country without a film industry and under the Islamist government of the time.\n__________________\nThis African Muslim Film Festival is brought to you by the Global Islamic Studies Center and cosponsored by the African Studies Center\, Arab and Muslim American Studies\, the Center for Middle East and North African Studies\, Digital Islamic Studies Curriculum\, the Department of Afroamerican and African Studies\,  the Department of Film\, Television\, and Media\, the Department of Middle Eastern Studies\, the Department of Political Science\, and the Sawyer Seminar on the Africana Muslim and Genealogies of White Supremacy.\n\nVisit http://watch.eventive.org/amff for more details.\n\nWant to hear about similar events from U-M Islamic Studies?

SUMMARY:Exhibition:CCPS Exhibition. Survivors Saving Survivors: Photographing the Ukrainian Refugee Experience in Poland
DESCRIPTION:In April and June 2022\, at the invitation of JCC Krakow\, Chuck Fishman traveled to Poland to document the JCC and the Jewish community’s commitment to helping Ukrainian refugees fleeing their war-torn country. What he witnessed and captured in a series of gripping photographs is *tikkun olam*\, a central concept in Judaism that denotes activities that repair and improve the world we live in. The exhibit shifts the lens away from the horror the refugees have endured to focus instead on human goodness and how it can overcome lingering evil.\n\nIn his 45-year career\, freelance photographer Chuck Fishman has focused on social and political issues with a strong humanistic concern. His work on Jewish life in Poland\, begun in 1975\, continues to the present day. Fishman’s work has been extensively published\, exhibited\, and collected worldwide\, and has earned him prestigious World Press Photo Foundation medals four times. His photographs have appeared on the covers of *Time*\, *Life*\, *Fortune*\, *Newsweek*\, *The London Sunday Times*\, *The Economist*\, and numerous others. Fishman’s work is included in the collections of the Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery\, the United Nations POLIN: The Museum of the History of Polish Jews\, and the Stanford University and New York Public Libraries\, to name a few\, as well as private and corporate collections.\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at weisercenter@umich.edu.

On display is material drawn from the University of Michigan collections dealing with the history of early astronomy: manuscripts\, early printed books\, and artifacts illustrating Mesopotamian\, Greek\, Islamic\, and Western European astronomy.\n\nThis exhibit and its permanent online counterpart (https://umlib.us/earlyastronomy) are part of the Aratus Project\, which was sponsored by the National Science Foundation and led by Prof. Francesca Schironi. The core of the project has been to study Aratus’ \"Phaenomena\,\" the most important poem on stars and constellations of the Graeco-Roman ancient world\, and its exegetical tradition. Read an annotated edition and English translation of \"Phaenomena\" and its commentaries (https://aratus.classics.lsa.umich.edu/). The physical and online exhibits place this research work within its later intellectual and historical context.\n\nCurated by: John Steele\, Professor of the History of the Exact Sciences in Antiquity\, Department of Egyptology and Assyriology\, Brown University\; Francesca Schironi\, U-M Professor of Classical Studies\; Evyn Kropf\, U-M Librarian for Middle Eastern & North African Studies\; Pablo Alvarez\, U-M Curator (Special Collections Research Center).\n\nCheck Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours: https://myumi.ch/2mx44

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Portraits of Feminism in Japan
DESCRIPTION:What is feminism in Japan? Rather than imagining it as a singular\, coherent object\, this exhibit seeks to introduce the diversity\, difference\, and complexity inherent in feminist activism in Japan. As in other cultural contexts\, “feminism” in Japan can invoke sharply different associations\, from office workers trying to reshape taken-for-granted structures of power and authority\, to mothers advocating for safer school lunches after the 2011 Fukushima nuclear disasters\, and queer couples seeking legal recognition for the families they have created. Mainstream feminist activism in Japan has focused on advocating for change in families\, workplaces\, schools\, political institutions\, and laws\, among many other contexts. Many ­– but certainly not all – feminist activists in Japan are also responding to the lasting legacies of Japanese colonial projects\, working toward recognition\, repair\, and meaningful reparations for racial and gender-based violence that continue to impact communities disproportionately.\n\nThis exhibit features original portraits of feminists who have shaped the landscape of women's and gender rights in Japan and beyond. Created by nine contemporary artists in Japan and the United States\, the portraits and accompanying texts challenge simplistic understandings of \"feminism\" while also drawing attention to a diversity of experiences\, needs\, and activism within Japan. This exhibit also spotlights the history of Japanese studies at the University of Michigan in conjunction with the Center for Japanese Studies' 75th anniversary celebration. \n\n“Portraits of Feminism in Japan” is open for viewing M-F 9am-4pm or by appointment. University of Michigan instructors can email LaneHallExhibits@umich.edu to request a group tour or schedule a class visit.\n\nFeatured artists:\nElaine Cromie\, JenClare B.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Democratically Engaged Assessment\, Part One: Reimagining Assessment for Public Scholarship
DESCRIPTION:Assessment. The word sends shivers up the spine of even the most experienced scholars. Assessment is one of the most challenging\, fraught\, and effective endeavors that we deal with as public scholars\, community engagement professionals\, and change agents. But does assessment have to be so stressful? So inauthentic? Devoid of values? The quick answer: no!\nAssessment can be so much more than ticking boxes\, taking surveys\, and statistics. It can be dynamic\, engaging\, authentic\, and reaffirming. In this workshop\, we will help participants reimagine their relationship with assessment and develop ways of centering an equity-based\, inclusive\, democratic assessment process in their work. These workshops will guide participants through a series of activities to reimagine their assessment work using the framework of democratically-engaged assessment (DEA) as a lens. Following a conceptual introduction and initial engagement with the framework\, participants will examine their assessment practices and develop an action plan for their own work in a specific arena. Reflective exercises and collaborative activities will help participants surface their assumptions about the role of values in assessment\, the values they enact through their assessment\, tension points that arise across phases of assessment\, and opportunities to negotiate tensions through the lens of DEA. In keeping with the tenets of the framework\, participants will not only enhance their own work\, but also will contribute to the ongoing and co-creative development of the DEA framework itself.\n\nPart 1: Reimagining Assessment for Public Scholarship\nIntention: This workshop will cover the basics of assessment\, bust some myths\, introduce some framings and tools\, and explore examples of the spectrum of assessment.\n\nBios:\nJulia Metzker serves as director of the Washington Center for Improving Undergraduate Education at the Evergreen State College. Julia received her first degree from the Evergreen State College\, where she learned first-hand the value of a transformative liberal arts education. She obtained a doctoral degree in inorganic chemistry from the University of Arizona and completed a postdoctoral appointment at the University of York in the United Kingdom. In her 10 years as a chemistry professor at Georgia College\, she discovered the power of community-based learning to engage students in learning that matters. After serving as the inaugural director of community-based engaged learning at Georgia College she moved to Stetson University as the founding executive director for the Brown Center for Faculty Innovation and Excellence. During her journey of discovering herself as an educator\, she was fortunate to find a cohort of like-minded university educators who co-founded the Innovative Course-building Group—a grass-roots social network for learning that supports teaching faculty and staff across disciplines. She believes in reimagining and reclaiming the democratic potential of assessment\, work she champions as a member of Imagining America’s Assessing the Practices of Public Scholarship (APPS) research group. She and her partner\, Joe\, raise chickens and bees in the Pacific Northwest.\nSarah Stanlick is an assistant professor in the Department of Integrative and Global Studies and the director of the Great Problems Seminar at Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI). She is also responsible for the delivery and support of global project-based learning through the Global Projects Program\, and teaches social science research methods for students of all backgrounds and majors in preparation for the interactive qualifying project\, a seven-week project with external sponsors. Her commitment to transformative and inclusive learning that engages students as active agents includes her regular participation in faculty learning communities at WPI and collaborative work to advance the integration of open educational resources and open pedagogical practices across the WPI curriculum. In addition to co-chairing the APPS collective with Julia\, she serves as one of the co-directors of the Community-Based Global Learning Collaborative. Her priority for teaching\, research\, and service is to encourage and model engaged\, active citizenship and help create conditions for all community members to be able to similarly engage. She splits time between Worcester and Hellertown\, Pennsylvania (where her partner Michael works and lives with their spicy cat Miikka) and is an avid gardener\, yoga practitioner\, cook\, and ice hockey fan.\n\nThis session is sponsored by Rackham’s Mellon Public Engagement and the Humanities program\, and is open to all students on campus interested in the topic.\nRegistration is required at https://myumi.ch/355Rp.\nWe want to ensure full and equitable participation in our events. If an accommodation would promote your full participation in this event\, please follow the registration link to indicate your accommodation requirements. Please let us know as soon as possible in order to have adequate time\, preferably one week\, to arrange for your requested accommodations or an effective alternative.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Dissertation Defense: A Polytopal Decomposition of Strata of Translation Surfaces
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: A closed surface can be endowed with a certain locally Euclidean metric structure called a translation surface. Moduli spaces that parametrize such structures are called strata\, and there is still much to discover of their global topology. These strata admit a decomposition into finitely many polytopal regions parametrized by certain triangulations of translation surfaces (L-infinity Delaunay triangulations). These regions intersect each other in pathological ways (the \"infinite adjacency phenomenon\")\, but we resolve these pathologies to obtain finite simplicial models for strata. Our methods also show that there is an induced polytopal decomposition on subvarieties of strata called Teichmüller curves.\n\nHYBRID Defense: \nIn person: 2058 East Hall Psych Conference Room\n\nZoom: https://umich.zoom.us/j/95915733517?pwd=NjZ1NVB4WnYwMjBrazA1NnB5TFNsQT09

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Alum Connection with Trooper Sanders: LSA degree as asset in the socio-tech space of AI
DESCRIPTION:Trooper often finds himself in rooms packed with engineers and programmers\, helping think through technological developments and their impact on people seeking food or access to healthcare. “I’m the LSA person in those rooms\,” he says\, referring to the critical thinking skills and multiple disciplines he studied in LSA that still give him an edge in his nearly thirty-year career. Join Trooper in this conversation that will explore how he maneuvered into this rapidly expanding “socio-tech” and tech-adjacent space. Learn the power of internships and how an internship experience led Trooper to a role with President Clinton’s administration. Ask Trooper all your questions about getting started in tech\, government and policy\, and nonprofit leadership. Join us! \n\nAbout Trooper:\nTrooper Sanders is CEO of Benefits Data Trust\, a nonprofit that uses data\, technology\, policy change\, and direct service to help people tap the more than $60 billion in unclaimed benefits that support critical needs such as food security and healthcare. Trooper brings over 20 years of experience working at the crossroads of business\, government\, and the nonprofit sector. Before joining BDT\, Trooper was a Rockefeller Foundation fellow and worked on the social and economic implications of the global rise of artificial intelligence. For eight years\, Trooper ran Wise Whisper\, a strategic advisory practice to financial technology startups\, philanthropic initiatives\, and business leaders. He has also held White House policy staff positions during two administrations. In the nonprofit sector\, he led the creation of ventures addressing issues such as the childhood obesity epidemic in the United States\, the economic fallout of disasters\, and the private sector's role in international development.\n\nHe currently serves on the National Artificial Intelligence Advisory Committee\, the national board of Girl Scouts of USA\, and the Military Family Research Institute's advisory board. He is also a member of the Council on Foreign Relations. Trooper earned his bachelor’s from the LSA (Individualized Concentration in International Political Economy\, ‘95) and holds a Master of Science in Regulation from the London School of Economics\, as well as a Master of Law from the University of London.\n\nYou should attend this session if you are:\n- Interested in a career in artificial intelligence and its ethical implications\n- Exploring the potential of a career that leverages data for public good\n- Curious about how to work at the intersection of business\, government\, and the nonprofit sector\n- An LSA student exploring your career options\n\nWhat you’ll gain by attending:\n- The support of a successful alum with nearly 30 years of varied career experience\n- Insights into current and upcoming trends in the socio-tech space\n- Answers to your questions about launching your career after graduation\n\nRSVP NOW to be part of the conversation.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Connell Memorial Lecture> Ribosome collisions as a signaling hub to impact cell fate
DESCRIPTION:Rachel Green began her scientific career majoring in chemistry as an undergraduate at the University of Michigan. Her doctoral work was performed at Harvard in the laboratory of Jack Szostak where she studied RNA enzymes and developed methodologies for evolving RNAs in vitro. She came to the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine in 1998 following post-doctoral work in Harry Noller’s lab at University of California Santa Cruz where she began her work on ribosomes. Her laboratory is interested in deciphering the molecular mechanisms that are at the heart of protein synthesis and its regulation across biology. Most recently\, her work has focused on ribosome-mediated quality control systems that are triggered on difficult-to-translate mRNA sequences deriving from genetic or environmental insults. She has found that such translational distress leads not only to mRNA-specific QC events\, but also to the activation of cell-wide signaling and transcriptional responses\, mediated by factors that specifically bind to colliding ribosomes. Her laboratory uses both biochemical\, genetic\, proteomic and genomic approaches to get at these questions in bacterial and eukaryotic systems.\n\nShe is a Bloomberg Distinguished Professor of molecular biology and genetics at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine and a HHMI Investigator.\n\nLecture is made possible by a gift from her family in memory of Priscilla Connell\, a renowned nature photography.\n\nHost: Morgan DeSantis

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Virtual HEP-Astro Seminar | Overview of Dual-Readout Calorimetry Status and Development Plans For Future Electroweak Factories
DESCRIPTION:Meeting ID\n954 2991 7490\nhttps://umich.zoom.us/j/95429917490\nPasscode123456\n\nAt present\, hadronic shower energy measurements are heavily limited by the event-by-event fluctuations of the electromagnetic shower fraction. Based on the simultaneous measurement of scintillating (S) and Cherenkov (C) light\, the dual-readout calorimetric technique is one of the solutions proposed for overcoming this problem and compensating for it\, on an event-by-event basis. In this talk\, we will quickly review the work done so far on dual-readout calorimeters and show their impressive potential\, in particular when coupled with a highly granular readout system. On top of that\, time measurements may complement the 2D imaging capabilities of a fibre-sampling calorimeter and provide information on the shower longitudinal profile. Finally\, an electromagnetic dual-readout crystal section will open the door for measurements of electromagnetic showers with top-of-the-art energy resolution\, without harming the hadronic performance. The development plans and the expected performance will be described in the context of the IDEA proto-experiment proposed for future circular electroweak factories (FCC-ee and CEPC).

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:RCGD Winter Seminar Series: Political polarization real and imagined: What do we get most wrong about our political opponents and does it matter?
DESCRIPTION:Political polarization real and imagined: What do we get most wrong about our political opponents and does it matter?\nMonday\, March 13\, 2023 (3:30 PM – 5:00 PM)\n\nAnne E. Wilson\nProfessor of Psychology\nWilfrid Laurier University\n\nPolitical polarization characterized by increasing dislike\, even hatred\, of opponent party members has risen to a fever pitch in contemporary American society. However\, a surprising degree of common ground may be obscured by an illusory conviction that most opponents hold extreme and noxious views. I describe my lab’s research considering how the contemporary media and social media ecosystem selects for and amplifies the most extreme and threatening exemplars of opponents\, fueling partisans’ caricatured views of the other side and producing a false polarization that outstrips real divisions. We consider the downstream consequences of these misperceptions\, including animosity\, refusal to engage with opponents\, hesitation to voice ingroup dissent\, and acceptance of anti-democratic tactics. We also examine ways to mitigate these effects and disrupt the cycle of polarization. Beginning with the insight that extreme voices tend to be disproportionately active\, visible\, and shared on social media (contributing to overestimations of the prevalence of noxious views)\, we examine whether exposure to ingroup dissenters who challenge their co-partisans’ extreme views online can mitigate these effects. We find that exposure to a single extreme tweet substantially increased opponents’ prevalence overestimates (assumptions that the fringe view is widespread). Next\, we examined whether exposure to one or several moderate\, dissenting tweets attenuated misperceptions and mitigated the cycle of hostility they provoke.\n\nAnne E. Wilson is a professor in the Psychology Department at Wilfrid Laurier University. She is an expert on individual and collective identity over time\, with a recent focus on intergroup processes underlying political polarization. She received her PhD in social psychology from the University of Waterloo in 2000\, is a former Canada Research Chair in Social Psychology\, and a Fellow of the Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR) Successful Societies program.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Celebrating Women's History Month
DESCRIPTION:“Celebrating Women’s History Month” will be a 90-minute presentation and dialogue on and celebrating the contributions of women throughout history. We will recognize the promotion of feminism and how it has evolved over time with discussion topics ranging from politics\, science\, art\, and culture. Through a candid conversation highlighting women’s voices across time\, we will highlight the impact of women in the industry and the contributions of women throughout the globe as well at the University of Michigan.\n\nThe experiences of minority women including but not limited to: Trans women\, trans femme women\, African American & Black women\, Latinx & Pacific Islander women\, Native American women\, East Asian women\, South Asian women\, Central Asian women\, and Middle Eastern women will be central to our workshop. Within our resident halls\, we encourage the awareness and active condemnation of misogynistic stigmas. Thus\, we will discuss not only women’s accomplishments but also the burdens they had to overcome\, and how we can all be part of a future where these burdens are removed for all individuals who identify as women.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Diagrams\, Schur-Weyl Duality and Links
DESCRIPTION:The Schur-Weyl Duality is a classical result that relates the representation theory of \mathfrac{sl}_2 and the symmetric group via their action on tensor powers of \C^2. We also have a result due to Weyl Rummer and Teller that gives a diagrammatic interpretation of the\mathfrac{sl}_2  invariants of  (\C^2)^{2n}. We shall see these results and their corresponding generalizations to $U_q{\mathfrac{sl}_2)$ on one hand and the Hecke algebra on one hand. We will also make surprising connections to Link Invariants and see how our diagrammatic calculus gives us the Jones polynomial.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Egyptian Herakles and Syrian Aphrodite? Phoenician art and cultural exchange in the eastern Mediterranean
DESCRIPTION:Who is “Egyptian Herakles” and why did Greeks use this title when referring to the Phoenician god Melqart? Why did the ancient Greek historian Herodotos seek the origins of Heracles and Aphrodite on the Levantine coast? In this talk I juxtapose these narratives of divine origins against the backdrop or artistic developments in early Greece\, when art in the Aegean and elsewhere in the Mediterranean emulated Levantine and in particular Phoenician models. I will propose that Phoenician modes of representation (including Egyptian and Canaanite inflections) affected perceptions of cultural affiliations and origins. More generally I will address the issue of representation of the Phoenicians in Greek and biblical sources\, positively or negatively\, as agents of cultural change.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:ISRMT Seminar: Some exact formulas of the KPZ fixed point and directed landscape
DESCRIPTION:In the past twenty years\, there have been huge developments in the study of the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) universality class\, which is a broad class of physical and probabilistic models including one-dimensional interface growth processes\, interacting particle systems and polymers in random environments\, etc. It is broadly believed and partially proved\, that all the models share the universal scaling exponents and have the same asymptotic behaviors. The height functions of models in the KPZ universality class are expected to converge to a limiting space-time fluctuation field\, which is called the KPZ fixed point. Moreover\, there is a random “directed metric” on the space-time plane that is expected to govern all the models in the KPZ universality class. This “directed metric” is called the directed landscape. Both the KPZ fixed point and the directed landscape are central objects in the study of the KPZ universality class\, while they were only characterized/constructed very recently [MQR21\, DOV18].\n\nIn this talk\, we will discuss some exact formulas of distributions in these two random fields. These exact formulas are in terms of an infinite sum of multiple contour integrals\, which are analogous to the Fredholm determinant expansions. We will show some surprising probabilistic properties of the KPZ fixed point and the directed landscape using the exact formulas. Some of the results are based on joint work with Yizao Wang and Ray Zhang.\n\nA recording of the talk can be found at https://youtu.be/I4zWZXU2ZTY

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:STS Speaker Series. Queering and Transing the Life Cycle in Jewish Ritual
DESCRIPTION:The term “life cycle ritual” is used widely in Jewish Studies. In this talk I trace the idea of the life cycle and its development\, while considering the racialized\, gendered\, and sexual politics of the term\, and the way it borrows from biological sciences. Scholars have argued that the concept of the life cycle in Judaism originates with the rabbis in late antiquity. Eunuchs and androgynes\, who are found prolifically in rabbinic literature\, can trouble the assumption that the rabbis are invested in an orderly cycle of life. I weave together trans and queer theory with Jewish sources to examine legal attempts to channel messy embodiment into a life trajectory.   \n\nMax Strassfeld is an Associate Professor of Religious Studies at the University of Arizona. They are the author of Trans Talmud: Androgynes and Eunuchs in Rabbinic Literature\, which was a finalist for the National Jewish Book Awards in 2022.\n\nCo-sponsors: Departments of Women’s and Gender Studies\; Classical Studies\; Center for Judaic Studies

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:GLNT Seminar: Regular de Rham Galois representations in the completed cohomology of modular curves
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Let p be a prime. I want to explain how to use the geometry of modular curves at infinite level and the Hodge–Tate period map to study regular de Rham p-adic Galois representations appearing in the p-adically completed cohomology of modular curves. We will show that these Galois representations up to twists come from modular forms\, which was previously known by Emerton by totally different methods. One useful observation is to view modular curves at infinite level as a \"correspondence\" between classical modular curves and the flag variety.

SUMMARY:Well-being:VIRTUAL | Women\, Connectedness\, and Self-Care
DESCRIPTION:RSVP here: https://www.cew.umich.edu/events/virtual-women-connectedness-and-self-care-2\n--------------------------------------------\n\nIn celebration of Women’s History Month\, CEW+ will feature a program focused on holistic wellness\, mindfulness\, and empowerment. Join us for a workshop offered virtually via Zoom and continue as part of a community of care throughout the month of March. All participants will receive weekly connectedness communications and an invite to return for an in-person check-in at CEW+ to celebrate a month of wellness.\n\nWe will spend time thinking about what self-care means to each of us based on identity\, social location\, and privilege to recognize the intersecting dynamics that drive this concept. We will explore how mindful connections can help foster communities of care. Drawing on Black feminist thought this workshop centers the words of the late poet Audre Lorde who said\, “Caring for myself is not self-indulgence\, it is self-preservation\, and that is an act of political warfare.” By identifying the ways that we are and are not caring for ourselves we can begin to cultivate new intentions and practices that model for our families\, students\, and colleagues why self-care is an integral part of a balanced and whole life for women.\n\nDuring the workshop\, participants will engage in small and large group discussions focused on ideas and questions from the brief readings. We will develop our own “Self-Care Bingo” boards as a culminating activity and participants will be invited to do their best to complete bingo on their board throughout the rest of the month. Participants will be invited back at the end of the month (or beginning of April) to celebrate and share their joys and challenges in community.\n\nThis workshop kicks off a month-long series of activities related to practicing self-care and cultivating communities of care in the process. Each week participants will receive an email with resources\, tips\, and tools for incorporating self-care into their daily lives. The email will help to continue the conversation begun in the workshop and help to strengthen connections between participants and CEW+.

During his first years of adolescence\, Muzamil grows up like other children\, but sometimes feels uneasy about his future. When Muzammil turns 19\, he begins grappling with a holy man's prediction that he will die when he turns twenty.\n\nFilm Facts & Background:\nSince few films had been produced in Sudan since independence in 1956\, You Will Die at Twenty was only the country's eighth feature film. Filmmaker Amjad Abu Alala\, who was born in Dubai to Sudanese parents\, shot the film in northern Sudan during the upheavals of the Sudanese revolution and despite challenges in a country without a film industry and under the Islamist government of the time.\n__________________\nThis African Muslim Film Festival is brought to you by the Global Islamic Studies Center and cosponsored by the African Studies Center\, Arab and Muslim American Studies\, the Center for Middle East and North African Studies\, Digital Islamic Studies Curriculum\, the Department of Afroamerican and African Studies\,  the Department of Film\, Television\, and Media\, the Department of Middle Eastern Studies\, the Department of Political Science\, and the Sawyer Seminar on the Africana Muslim and Genealogies of White Supremacy.\n\nVisit http://watch.eventive.org/amff for more details.\n\nWant to hear about similar events from U-M Islamic Studies?

A cast of Gen Z subjects\, helmed by influencer Feroza Aziz\, remains at its center\, making this one of the most needed and empathetic films exploring what it means to be a digital native.\n\nDIRECTOR & PRODUCER: SHALINI KANTAYYA\nEmmy-nominated filmmaker Shalini Kantayya directs fiction and nonfiction films that artfully marry the future of science with the future of story.

Her critically-acclaimed 2020 Sundance film\, Coded Bias\, was broadcast nationally on PBS’s Independent Lens and globally on Netflix in April 2021. The film has been nominated for a Critics’ Choice\, and an NAACP Image Award for Outstanding Documentary. The film won Best Director at the Social Impact Media Awards\, and the Visionary Filmmaker Award at GlobeDocs.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:CCPS Exhibition. Survivors Saving Survivors: Photographing the Ukrainian Refugee Experience in Poland
DESCRIPTION:In April and June 2022\, at the invitation of JCC Krakow\, Chuck Fishman traveled to Poland to document the JCC and the Jewish community’s commitment to helping Ukrainian refugees fleeing their war-torn country. What he witnessed and captured in a series of gripping photographs is *tikkun olam*\, a central concept in Judaism that denotes activities that repair and improve the world we live in. The exhibit shifts the lens away from the horror the refugees have endured to focus instead on human goodness and how it can overcome lingering evil.\n\nIn his 45-year career\, freelance photographer Chuck Fishman has focused on social and political issues with a strong humanistic concern. His work on Jewish life in Poland\, begun in 1975\, continues to the present day. Fishman’s work has been extensively published\, exhibited\, and collected worldwide\, and has earned him prestigious World Press Photo Foundation medals four times. His photographs have appeared on the covers of *Time*\, *Life*\, *Fortune*\, *Newsweek*\, *The London Sunday Times*\, *The Economist*\, and numerous others. Fishman’s work is included in the collections of the Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery\, the United Nations POLIN: The Museum of the History of Polish Jews\, and the Stanford University and New York Public Libraries\, to name a few\, as well as private and corporate collections.\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at weisercenter@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Early Astronomy in the University of Michigan Collections
DESCRIPTION:Trace how astronomy was developed\, studied\, and disseminated through the centuries\, from 1500 BCE to the Renaissance. On display is material drawn from the University of Michigan collections dealing with the history of early astronomy: manuscripts\, early printed books\, and artifacts illustrating Mesopotamian\, Greek\, Islamic\, and Western European astronomy.\n\nThis exhibit and its permanent online counterpart (https://umlib.us/earlyastronomy) are part of the Aratus Project\, which was sponsored by the National Science Foundation and led by Prof. Francesca Schironi. The core of the project has been to study Aratus’ \"Phaenomena\,\" the most important poem on stars and constellations of the Graeco-Roman ancient world\, and its exegetical tradition. Read an annotated edition and English translation of \"Phaenomena\" and its commentaries (https://aratus.classics.lsa.umich.edu/). The physical and online exhibits place this research work within its later intellectual and historical context.\n\nCurated by: John Steele\, Professor of the History of the Exact Sciences in Antiquity\, Department of Egyptology and Assyriology\, Brown University\; Francesca Schironi\, U-M Professor of Classical Studies\; Evyn Kropf\, U-M Librarian for Middle Eastern & North African Studies\; Pablo Alvarez\, U-M Curator (Special Collections Research Center).\n\nCheck Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours: https://myumi.ch/2mx44

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Portraits of Feminism in Japan
DESCRIPTION:What is feminism in Japan? Rather than imagining it as a singular\, coherent object\, this exhibit seeks to introduce the diversity\, difference\, and complexity inherent in feminist activism in Japan. As in other cultural contexts\, “feminism” in Japan can invoke sharply different associations\, from office workers trying to reshape taken-for-granted structures of power and authority\, to mothers advocating for safer school lunches after the 2011 Fukushima nuclear disasters\, and queer couples seeking legal recognition for the families they have created. Mainstream feminist activism in Japan has focused on advocating for change in families\, workplaces\, schools\, political institutions\, and laws\, among many other contexts. Many ­– but certainly not all – feminist activists in Japan are also responding to the lasting legacies of Japanese colonial projects\, working toward recognition\, repair\, and meaningful reparations for racial and gender-based violence that continue to impact communities disproportionately.\n\nThis exhibit features original portraits of feminists who have shaped the landscape of women's and gender rights in Japan and beyond. Created by nine contemporary artists in Japan and the United States\, the portraits and accompanying texts challenge simplistic understandings of \"feminism\" while also drawing attention to a diversity of experiences\, needs\, and activism within Japan. This exhibit also spotlights the history of Japanese studies at the University of Michigan in conjunction with the Center for Japanese Studies' 75th anniversary celebration. \n\n“Portraits of Feminism in Japan” is open for viewing M-F 9am-4pm or by appointment. University of Michigan instructors can email LaneHallExhibits@umich.edu to request a group tour or schedule a class visit.\n\nFeatured artists:\nElaine Cromie\, JenClare B. Gawaran\, Takatoshi Hayashi\, ivokuma (いぼくま)\, Nami Kaneko (金子奈美)\, Kang Jungsook\, Lisa Taka Miyagi\, Nancy Nishihira (西平・ナンシー)\, and Shigeki Shibata (柴田滋紀)\n\nCuration team: \nAllison Alexy\,  Bradly Hammond\, Grace Mahoney\, and Alexandria Molinari

SUMMARY:Exhibition:With Care
DESCRIPTION:About the Exhibition\nNicole Marroquin is an interdisciplinary artist\, researcher\, and educator whose practice explores spatial justice and Latinx history. Deeply rooted in community\, she cultivates and reaffirms the human connections that ultimately sustain us. Her recent work explores the emergent themes of belonging as seen through the histories of student rebellions in Chicago public schools between 1968 and 1980.\n\nHer site-specific installation *With Care*\, created for the Institute for the Humanities Gallery\, presents the documentary photographs of influential Mexican-born artist\, teacher\, and friend Diana Solís in visual dialogue with Marroquin’s own creative work which includes ceramic sculptures and printmaking. Solís’s photography reflects over 25 years of transnational Chicana and lesbian organizing primarily in Chicago and Mexico City between 1975 and 1990. \n\nAbout the Artist\nNicole Marroquin is an interdisciplinary artist\, researcher\, and teacher educator whose work explores spatial justice and Latinx history.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Democratically Engaged Assessment\, Part Two: From Theory to Practice—Build a Plan and Make It Yours
DESCRIPTION:Assessment. The word sends shivers up the spine of even the most experienced scholars. Assessment is one of the most challenging\, fraught\, and effective endeavors that we deal with as public scholars\, community engagement professionals\, and change agents. But does assessment have to be so stressful? So inauthentic? Devoid of values? The quick answer: no!\nAssessment can be so much more than ticking boxes\, taking surveys\, and statistics. It can be dynamic\, engaging\, authentic\, and reaffirming. In this workshop\, we will help participants to reimagine their relationship with assessment and develop ways of centering an equity-based\, inclusive\, democratic assessment process in their work. These workshops will guide participants through a series of activities to reimagine their assessment work using the framework of democratically-engaged assessment (DEA) as a lens. Following a conceptual introduction and initial engagement with the framework\, participants will examine their assessment practices and develop an action plan for their own work in a specific arena. Reflective exercises and collaborative activities will help participants surface their assumptions about the role of values in assessment\, the values they enact through their assessment\, tension points that arise across phases of assessment\, and opportunities to negotiate tensions through the lens of DEA. In keeping with the tenets of the framework\, participants will not only enhance their own work\, but also will contribute to the ongoing and co-creative development of the DEA framework itself.\n\nPart One: Reimagining Assessment for Public Scholarship\nNOTE: This session has a separate registration\, please register for Part 1 here.\nIntention: This workshop will cover the basics of assessment\, bust some myths\, introduce some framings and tools\, and explore examples of the spectrum of assessment.\n\nPart Two: From Theory to Practice – Build a plan and make it yours\nAudience: This workshop is an ideal space for those who have a project\, an idea\, or an inkling of an idea that they want to develop into reality and plan how to assess it.\n\nParticipants may choose to attend one or both sessions\, depending on their interests and needs.\nBios:\nJulia Metzker serves as director of the Washington Center for Improving Undergraduate Education at the Evergreen State College. Julia received her first degree from the Evergreen State College\, where she learned first-hand the value of a transformative liberal arts education. She obtained a doctoral degree in inorganic chemistry from the University of Arizona and completed a postdoctoral appointment at the University of York in the United Kingdom. In her 10 years as a chemistry professor at Georgia College\, she discovered the power of community-based learning to engage students in learning that matters. After serving as the inaugural director of community-based engaged learning at Georgia College she moved to Stetson University as the founding executive director for the Brown Center for Faculty Innovation and Excellence. During her journey of discovering herself as an educator\, she was fortunate to find a cohort of like-minded university educators who co-founded the Innovative Course-building Group—a grass-roots social network for learning that supports teaching faculty and staff across disciplines. She believes in reimagining and reclaiming the democratic potential of assessment\, work she champions as a member of Imagining America’s Assessing the Practices of Public Scholarship (APPS) research group. She and her partner\, Joe\, raise chickens and bees in the Pacific Northwest.\nSarah Stanlick is an assistant professor in the Department of Integrative and Global Studies and the director of the Great Problems Seminar at Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI). She is also responsible for the delivery and support of global project-based learning through the Global Projects Program\, and teaches social science research methods for students of all backgrounds and majors in preparation for the interactive qualifying project\, a seven-week project with external sponsors. Her commitment to transformative and inclusive learning that engages students as active agents includes her regular participation in faculty learning communities at WPI and collaborative work to advance the integration of open educational resources and open pedagogical practices across the WPI curriculum. In addition to co-chairing the APPS collective with Julia\, she serves as one of the co-directors of the Community-Based Global Learning Collaborative. Her priority for teaching\, research\, and service is to encourage and model engaged\, active citizenship and help create conditions for all community members to be able to similarly engage. She splits time between Worcester and Hellertown\, Pennsylvania (where her partner Michael works and lives with their spicy cat Miikka) and is an avid gardener\, yoga practitioner\, cook\, and ice hockey fan.\n\nThis session is sponsored by Rackham’s Mellon Public Engagement and the Humanities program\, and is open to all students on campus interested in the topic.\nRegistration is required at https://myumi.ch/Dww8M.\nWe want to ensure full and equitable participation in our events. If an accommodation would promote your full participation in this event\, please follow the registration link to indicate your accommodation requirements. Please let us know as soon as possible in order to have adequate time\, preferably one week\, to arrange for your requested accommodations or an effective alternative.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:In-person Arabic Placement test_March 14\, 2023 (10:00am-12:30pm)
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to the Arabic Placement TestAbout the testThe test is approximately two hours and a half in length\, and it is composed of three portions:a. The writing portion is completed on paper and it is worth a total of 100 points.b. The reading portion is completed on Canvas site\, and it is worth a total of 48 points.c. Right after finishing with the reading portion\, each student will have a follow-up interview with a proctor. The interviews last approximately 15 minutes and it is worth a total of 20 points.Important: The interview portion will be weighted most heavily as it will be used to validate performance on the other portions. The final result/score/rating will thus be based on the student’s performance on the interview above all. Rating of performance on the writing or reading portions is secondary.Students who receive 60% or above will be placed in Arabic 401 and thus placed out of the language requirement.Where can I view my results?Placement results are posted within 7 business days after the test.You will not be notified of your score automatically. You may view your placements via: Wolverine Access > Student Business > Academic Records > View Placement Exam Results.Important information about the test* Placements are valid for only one year. If you fail to register in the course that you are placed in\, you will be required to retake the test.* Retaking the placement test is only permitted after the placement results expire.* The test assesses students’ proficiency in Modern Standard Arabic (MSA)\, NOT colloquial Arabic.* If you speak an Arabic dialect but you do not know how to read or write or have little knowledge\, feel free to register in Arabic 101.* Students who know some Arabic because they came from an Arabic-speaking household or have studied Arabic before\, must take the Arabic proficiency test in order to determine their placement.* Students who have taken Arabic at other institutions and wish to continue their Arabic study at UM must take the placement test to determine their level. Credits for Arabic study undertaken at another institution prior to joining UM or in a summer program while attending UM\, transfer in as generic departmental credits and students must take the placement test to determine credit equivalencies to UM courses.* If you place in or beyond the 401 level\, you will have satisfied the LSA language requirement. * Students are encouraged to take a placement test as early as possible in their studies in order to determine the level they should enroll in\, or if they test out of the language requirement. This is extremely important to avoid delays in graduation and complications with placement.* Arabic 101\, 201\, 401\, 501 are offered ONLY in the Fall semester\, and Arabic 102\, 202\, 402\, 504 are ONLY offered in the Winter semester.* The Summer Language Institute (June & July) offers intensive Arabic 103 (the equivalent of Arabic 101 &102\, combined)\, Arabic 203 (the equivalent of Arabic 201 & 202\, combined)\, and Arabic 401 & 402.About the UM Arabic programUM’s Arabic curriculum is a dual register curriculum in which students learn to speak and understand either the Egyptian dialect or the Levantine dialect (the dialect of Jordan\, Syria\, Palestine and Lebanon) in addition to learning to read and write and understand formal Arabic (fuSHa). Students starting to learn Arabic\, if they have no background in Arabic\, can choose to take either dialect or can switch their dialect focus from one semester to the next. The dialect focus of each class section is indicated in the schedule of classes.\nIf you have questions regarding the placement test\, please contact the program director at\, mesarabicprogram@umich.edu.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Controlling stochastic biophysical processes\, from protein folding to evolution
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: The chemical reaction networks that regulate living systems are all stochastic to varying degrees.  The resulting randomness affects biological outcomes at multiple scales\, from the probability that a single protein molecule successfully finds its folded state to the evolutionary trajectory of a population of cells.  Understanding how the distribution of these outcomes changes over time is often difficult\, and achieving control over this distribution via external interventions is an even more complex challenge.  Intriguingly\, this problem has close parallels in a very different domain:  manipulating quantum states for applications like quantum computing and cold atom transport.  In this talk we show how one can translate quantum control into the classical realm of biology\, giving us a novel tool for steering biological processes.  We illustrate this idea through two examples:  the first is controlling the distribution of genetic variants in an evolving cellular population.  This is motivated by recent efforts to combat antibiotic resistance via therapies that guide the evolution of pathogens toward maximized drug sensitivity.  The second example involves controlling the distribution of protein folding states using so-called molecular chaperones:  protein enzymes that facilitate the unfolding or disaggregating of misfolded proteins.  The theoretical framework behind these two examples is quite general\, and can in principle be used in many other biophysical problems.  Finally\, we discuss ongoing work to explore the thermodynamic costs associated with control.

SUMMARY:Other:Unconventional Site Selectivity in Cross-Couplings of Dihaloheteroarenes
DESCRIPTION:Heteroarenes are ubiquitous motifs in high-value small molecules including pharmaceutical drugs and agrichemicals. Elaboration of halogenated heteroaromatic cores can be achieved through cross-coupling reactions\, which are among the most widely used methods in organic synthesis. However\, when two or more halides are present on the substrate\, controlling site selectivity becomes critical. In fact\, cross-couplings often follow a predictable selectivity pattern. For many dihalogenated heteroarenes\, methods do not exist to reliably invert the conventional pattern to achieve cross-coupling at the \\"less reactive\\" C—X bond. Herein we describe new catalyst-controlled strategies to accomplish this goal\, together with mechanistic studies to explain the origin of the selectivity inversion.                        \n                       \n\nSharon Neufeldt (Montana State University)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Tuesday Lunch Seminar - Hybrid - \"Region-wide climate-driven grassland community shifts in a biodiversity hotspot\"
DESCRIPTION:Our weekly lunch seminar series featuring internal speakers in the field of ecology and evolutionary biology. This seminar will be in-person and livestreaming on Zoom.\n\nAbstract:\nEcological communities have been shifting rapidly under recent climate change with alarming consequences for biodiversity and ecosystem services\, yet the generality and causality of such shifts have to be demonstrated. We focus on grasslands in the California Floristic Province\, a global biodiversity hotspot spanning 300\,000 km2\, where considerable climate warming and drying have occurred. We compiled long-term grassland community composition data from 12 observational sites and a warming experiment\, estimated hundreds of species’ climate niches from millions of occurrence records\, and analyzed changes in community composition and species gain and loss in reference to their climate distributions. We show that these grassland communities experienced significant shifts toward species tolerant of warmer and drier conditions\, at a pace similar to climate warming and drying. The consistent observational and experimental evidence establish grassland community shift as a predictable fingerprint of climate change.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Latinx Research Week Department of Psychology Sponsored Session
DESCRIPTION:ANA PATRICIA ESQUEDA\nDoctoral Candidate\, Psychology\nTitle: COVID-19: Its effects on Latinos and the protective factors they may employ to cope \nCOVID-19 has laid bare the structural inequities that low-income communities of color face. Yet\, public health recommendations for preventing the spread—staying at home and social distancing—only add another layer to the health disparities\, socioeconomic disadvantages\, and policy barriers experienced by communities of color. Guided by a resilience-based approach\, this project employs a mixed methods design to gauge the effects of COVID-19 on Latinos whilst exploring the cultural and social influences that serve as protective factors in the face of psychological and structural barriers. As a first step\, quantitative data was gathered through an online survey of 1595 Latinos from the United States and Puerto Rico. Initial analyses of the sample—which showcased vaccine hesitancy\, collectivist ideals\, and a general fear of the virus—were used to design a semi-structured interview protocol. The resulting qualitative data comes from one-on-one interviews with 60 Latinos from the United States. Integrated results regarding the effects of COVID\, steps taken to combat COVID\, concerns\, cultural values\, and hopes for the future illustrate the why/how often missing from quantitative samples and show that despite the many difficulties brought about by COVID-19 there is strength in the values and customs of Latino culture. \n\nCARLOS VIVALDO\nDoctoral Candidate\, Biopsychology\nTitle: Joint Coding of Sound and Speed by Auditory Cortical Neuronal Ensembles \nThe ability to process and act upon incoming sounds during locomotion is critical for survival. Intriguingly\, sound responses of auditory cortical neurons are on average weaker during locomotion as compared to immobility and these results have been suggested to reflect a computational resource allocation shift from auditory to visual processing. However\, the evolutionary benefit of this hypothesis remains unclear. In particular\, whether weaker sound-evoked responses during locomotion indeed reflect a reduced involvement of the auditory cortex\, or whether they result from an alternative neural computation in this state remains unresolved. To address this question\, we first used neural inactivation in behaving mice and found that the auditory cortex plays a critical role in sound-guided behavior during locomotion. To investigate the nature of this processing\, we used two-photon calcium imaging of local excitatory auditory cortical neural populations in awake mice. We found that underlying a net inhibitory effect of locomotion on sound-evoked response magnitude\, spatially intermingled neuronal subpopulations were differentially influenced by locomotion. Further\, the net inhibitory effect of locomotion on sound-evoked responses was strongly shaped by elevated ongoing activity. Importantly\, rather than reflecting enhanced “noise”\, this ongoing activity reliably encoded the animal’s locomotion speed. Prediction analyses revealed that sound\, locomotive state and their integration are strongly encoded by auditory cortical ensemble activity. Finally\, we found consistent patterns of locomotion-sound integration in electrophysiologically recorded activity in freely moving rats. Together\, our data suggest that auditory cortical ensembles are not simply suppressed by locomotion but rather encode it alongside sound information to support sound perception during locomotion.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Cognitive Science Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:The Cognitive Science Seminar Series is an informal gathering of graduate students and faculty from multiple departments with an interest in presenting and discussing cognitive science topics. The seminars are held weekly throughout the academic year on Tuesdays from 2:30-3:50 PM in Weiser 955.\n______\n\nTitle\nnvestigating the Source of Neg-First Biases in Typology and Acquisition\n\nAbstract\nThe tendency for negation to appear early in the sentence\, dubbed the “Neg-First principle” by Horn (1989:452)\, has been observed in the domains of typology\, language contact\, and language acquisition. While scholars have speculated about the source and universality of the Neg-First principle based on such evidence\, these hypotheses have not been widely tested or corroborated using experimental methods. In this talk\, I will report two artificial language learning experiments which investigate the effect of language experience on the behavioral bias to produce preverbal negation among speakers of English and Japanese\, as well as the hypothesis that the Neg-First principle is driven by factors of audience design in communication. While English speakers show a preference to produce preverbal negation even in the absence of communication\, Japanese speakers do not\, challenging the idea of a universal preference for preverbal negation in acquisition as a plausible candidate for shaping linguistic typology. Though one possibility is that the cross-linguistic prevalence of preverbal negation results from historical forces rather than pressures on learning and use\, more nuanced explanations which maintain the role of biases which are present independent of language experience remain to be explored.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Wage Inequality in American Manufacturing\, 1820-1940: New Evidence
DESCRIPTION:The consensus view among economic historians is that wage inequality in American manufacturing followed an inverted-U path from the early nineteenth century until just before World War Two. The previous literature\, however\, has been unable to fully document this path over time\, or fully assess the role of explanatory factors such as changes in firm organization and technology. We provide fresh evidence that allows us to better document the inverted U as well as its causes. In the first part of the paper\, we use the Department of Labor’s Hand and Machine Labor Study to show that wage inequality within manufacturing establishments rose over the nineteenth century. In the second part\, we use information from Massachusetts on construct a new time series showing that wage inequality among production workers declined from the 1890s to the late 1930s. For both periods technology played a role – the shift to steam-powered factories over the nineteenth century raised wage inequality\, whereas electrification after 1900 reduced it.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM-AMO Seminar | Observation of a Massive Phason and THz Phonon-Driven Kerr Effects in a Weyl Charge Density Wave
DESCRIPTION:Understanding the fundamental collective excitations of an emergent many-body interacting system has been a crosscutting theme throughout many branches of physics. Key questions about the dynamics of these excitations in the presence of both many-body physics and topology are currently driving numerous major research efforts in quantum materials. One such material is (TaSe_4)_2I - a Weyl semimetal that undergoes charge density wave (CDW) ordering below 260 K. I will discuss two of our recent experiments using nonlinear light-matter interaction in the terahertz (THz) range to directly probe the dynamics of the collective excitations of (TaSe_4)_2I. I will first show how upon transient photoexcitation at low temperatures (TaSe_4)_2I strikingly emits coherent\, narrow-band THz radiation. The frequency\, polarization and temperature dependence of the emitted radiation imply the existence of a phason that acquires mass by coupling to long-range Coulomb interaction\, giving a direct measurement of the Anderson-Higgs mechanism. Second\, I will show our recent results using THz pump\, IR Kerr probe spectroscopy on (TaSe_4)_2I to highlight how THz-driven phonons can induce a sizeable dynamic optical Kerr rotation in this otherwise time-reversal invariant system. I will briefly discuss both these results in the context of the predicted axion electrodynamics in (TaSe_4)_2I.

SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:International Student Career Series: How to Navigate Small Talk
DESCRIPTION:\"In the United States\, many people participate in what is called \"\"\"\"small talk\"\"\"\"\, where you 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 culture to chat about harmless topics in order to establish a connection and start to build a friendship.\n\nFor example\, while waiting for an interview\, in line at a M-Den\, or in 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 aboutthe long line you’re both in\, or comment on the current situation.\n\nIf you are interested in learning more about \"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"small talk\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\, now it’s your chance to sign up for this workshop on how to navigate small talk as an international student. In this workshop\, we will educate you on what is small talk and you will also have the chance to practice small talk with Peers!\"

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:[Hybrid event] - Sideways Glances: The Poetics of Queer Space in the Post-socialist Balkans
DESCRIPTION:Location: 2239 Lane Hall & ZoomSpeaker:  Vladislav Beronja\, Assistant Professor\, Slavic and Eurasian Studies\, University of Texas at AustinDescription:In the last twenty years\, activists\, artists\, and scholars in the former Yugoslavia have begun to unearth\, document\, and reconstruct queer histories\, spaces\, and cultural practices that have historically been marginalized and threatened by erasure in the region. This “archeological impulse” comes on the wave of queer activism and the rise of LGBTQ+ visibility politics following the collapse of state socialism in the 1990s\, while frequently challenging western perceptions of the region within the dominant Orientalizing and Cold War imaginaries. Drawing on this growing body of scholarship and activism\, my presentation examines the transformation of štajga\, or the cruising grounds—from a previously invisible site of sexual modernity in late Yugoslav socialism into a counter-archive of queer history in the postsocialist present. In particular\, I focus on Uroš Filipović’s Staklenac (Glass Arcade\, 2002)\, a seminal work of queer autofiction in Serbia\, alongside the more recent work of the queerANarchive collective\, founded in 2010 in Split as an attempt to document\, archive\, and render discursive the geographies and practices of queer culture in the context of postsocialist Croatia. I argue that štajga serves not only as an historical alternative to the contemporary politics of queer visibility and respectability\, but also as a site that registers the shifting relations between non-normative sexuality\, queer poetics\, and capitalist form. \nThis hybrid event is presented by the Lesbian-Gay-Queer Research Initiative (LGQRI) at IRWG with co-sponsorship from the Departments of Comparative Literature\, and Slavic Languages and Literatures.\nRegister to attend in person or on Zoom. **This talk will be recorded. A link to view the recording will be emailed to registered attendees within a few days. The recording will be available to view for 2 weeks. Thank you!**\nAbout the Speaker:Vladislav Beronja is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Slavic and Eurasian Studies at the University of Texas at Austin.

SUMMARY:Reception / Open House:Illustrations in Rare Books and Prints in Western Europe: A Very Brief History
DESCRIPTION:Come and view a selection of early rare books and prints containing images printed with the technique of relief (woodcuts) and intaglio (copperplate engravings). To demonstrate the working of these illustration processes\, our display will also include some historical woodblocks and copperplates. Drop by anytime during this open house\, held in room 660 on the 6th floor of the Hatcher Library\, to peruse these materials and enjoy light refreshments!\n\nFrom the introduction of movable-type printing in Europe in the fifteenth century\, images were often included along with the printed text\, playing various roles in the transmission of culture and new ideas. While some illustrations were merely decorative\, others became extraordinary landmarks in the history of religion and science.\n\nTake advantage of our monthly Special Collections After Hours events to explore a sliver of the many books\, documents\, and artifacts in the Special Collections Research Center.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:WCED Lecture. The Rise of Imitation Election Observers

His latest book is *The Rise of Sophisticated Authoritarianism in Southeast Asia* (Cambridge University Press\, 2020)\, and he is currently working on a new book tentatively entitled \"Faithful Imposters: The Wrecking of International Election Observation.\" A regular contributor to international media outlets and consultant to international organizations\, some of his research has appeared in *Comparative Political Studies*\, *Democratization*\, *Journal of Democracy*\, *Political Studies*\, and *The Pacific Review*. In addition\, he has been invited to present his research at the Council on Foreign Relations\, European Parliament\, National Endowment for Democracy\, United States Department of State\, as well as the United States Agency for International Development\, amongst many other institutions. His research areas are authoritarian politics\, dictators\, democratization\, election observation\, and Southeast Asian politics.\n\nThis lecture will be presented in person in 555 Weiser Hall and on Zoom.
