Location: Diag - Central Campus
Organized By: International Youth and Students for Social Equality

The International Youth and Students for Social Equality (IYSSE) at the University of Michigan has called a meeting and a demonstration demanding the immediate release of imprisoned whistleblower Chelsea Manning. A rally will be held on Wednesday, March 13 at 12 PM on The Diag in front of Hatcher Graduate Library. A subsequent meeting will take place on Thursday, March 14 at 7 PM in the Michigan League, Room A.

The IYSSE is declaring the imprisonment of Manning an egregious attack on democratic rights and a threat to press freedom. The courageous whistleblower was imprisoned on Friday for refusing to testify before a secret grand jury that is drawing up fabricated charges against WikiLeaks publisher Julian Assange on behalf of the Trump administration. Beginning in 2010, Manning exposed major US war crimes in Iraq and Afghanistan including the infamous Collateral Murder cockpit video showing a US helicopter in Baghdad gunning down 16 unarmed civilians, including two Reuters journalists.

Wednesday’s demonstration is part of a series of coordinated rallies around the country, with the Socialist Equality Party (US) and the World Socialist Web Site (wsws.org). The perspective of this campaign places the basis of the defense of press freedom and democratic rights on the mobilization of the international working class. More information on the campaign to defend Manning can be found on the website: freechelsea.org

Location: Dana Building
Organized By: Epsilon Eta

Epsilon Eta is Umich's only Pre-Profesional Environmental Co-Ed Fraternity. We seek to develop a more robust network of students, researchers, employers, and agencies to more effectively deal with the realities of our world’s changing climate and loss of biodiversity. By fostering a conscious awareness of the intrinsic relationship between people and their environment through academics, the community, and service, we seek to bridge the gap from the undergraduate atmosphere to professional environmental fields for students at Michigan.
Although we are inclusive of all majors, we require an interest in the environmental field. By pledging Epsilon Eta, you will become a member of an eclectic group of driven, intelligent, and innovative peers, as well as gain access to professional, social, and volunteering resources.
This meeting will give you a chance to get a better sense of our organization and a chance to ask questions. We will also explain what our Fall Rush process consists of.

LSA Honors #GivingBlueday (December 3, 2019 12:00am) https://events.umich.edu/event/69398 69398-17318565@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Tuesday, December 3, 2019 12:00am
Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: LSA Honors Program

Honors joins the university in participating in #GivingBlueday, an annual opportunity for online giving. Donated funds benefit students involved in HELA - Honors in Engaged Liberal Arts (333462) as well as students applying for research and travel grants through the Strategic Fund (309547).

From the Director's Letter in the 2019 Forum:
"Our new LSA Dean, Anne Curzan, emphasizes the importance of joy, play, and gratitude in our academic lives. Dean Curzan and I have known one another for twenty-one years — we both have our Ph.D.s from U-M and defended our dissertations just weeks apart — so maybe it’s no surprise that I share those commitments. In the Honors Program, it’s easy to experience both joy and gratitude, and as I begin my second term as Director, going to campus every day feels more like getting to play than going to a job. Our students, our staff, our faculty, and you, our alums, are the reason for it.

Play doesn’t mean a lack of seriousness. Our students, in particular, confront a world that is more competitive and more uncertain than that many of us faced at their age. (By “us” I mean those of us who need more than their fingers and toes to count the years since college graduation.) But it is exactly the younger generation’s creativity, grit, and innovativeness that move us, too, to be playful...The Honors Program both maintains its traditional strengths and builds new ways of focusing on our core values: intellectual curiosity and academic rigor. [Additional content at lsa.umich.edu/honors/news and in the 2019 Forum Vol. 23.]

Joy and gratitude, indeed. I feel it every day, getting to work and play with our students, the Honors staff, our faculty and graduate instructors. And joy and gratitude to you, as well, our alums and friends, who make so much of it possible. Thank you!"
