Not For Long: The Life and Career of the NFL Athlete (September 6, 2018 5:45pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/54027 54027-13513140@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Thursday, September 6, 2018 5:45pm
Location: LSA Building
Organized By: Department of Sociology

Drawing on personal experience as a former professional football player and
interviews with over 120 current and former NFL players, Robert Turner gets behind
the bravado to reveal what it means to be an athlete in the NFL and why so many
players struggle with life after football. With compassion and objectivity, Dr. Turner
reveals the life and mind of high school, college, and NFL athletes, shedding light on
what might best help players transition successfully out of the sport.

Robert W. Turner II earned his Ph.D. in sociology at the Graduate Center of the City University of New York. He is Assistant Professor of Clinical Research and Leadership at George Washington University. Dr. Turner played football professionally in the now defunct United States Football League, the Canadian Football League, and briefly in the National Football League.

Dinner provided - RSVP Required! Please RSVP here: https://myumi.ch/a801K

Sociology Honors Program Information Session (October 1, 2018 5:30pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/55711 55711-13775078@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Monday, October 1, 2018 5:30pm
Location: LSA Building
Organized By: Department of Sociology

The Honors Program in Sociology combines one of the best features of a liberal arts college with those of a major research university by offering students the opportunity to do independent research with the guidance of faculty mentors. The research culminates in a written report, a thesis. Completion of an honors thesis demonstrates a student’s discipline and motivation as well as strong writing and analytical skills—assets for which prospective employers and graduate school admissions committees will be looking.

The department hosts an information meeting about the Honors Program in Sociology in early October each year. Attendees can meet the faculty honors director, hear from current honors students, and get all of their questions about the program and your application answered.

Dinner is provided! Please RSVP at: https://sessions.studentlife.umich.edu/p/track/1419

Cases will include: cancer care in Thailand, obesity prevention in Mexico City, primary care for diabetes in Ypsilanti, MI, and others.

Two days after the 2016 elections, 27-year-old Katie Fahey, a political novice, posted on Facebook, “I’d like to take on gerrymandering in Michigan. If you’re interested in doing this as well please let me know. {smiley face emoji}.” What began as a Facebook group, turned into an army of volunteers in a matter of weeks. The massive nonpartisan citizen campaign, now named Voters Not Politicians, gathered over 400,000 signatures to put redistricting reform on the Michigan ballot. The ballot initiative sought to create an independent commission to determine voting districts in Michigan. Michigan voters overwhelmingly approved the ballot measure in November 2018. The success of Fahey’s campaign has made it a model for anti-gerrymandering campaigns—and citizen organizing—across the nation. As Tina Rosenberg wrote in the New York Times, “If you doubt that a private citizen can make a difference, meet Fahey.”

She'll also offer some advice for how to celebrate your voice in the workplace. The workshop is part of the Celebrate Your Voice at Work campaign presented by the LSA Opportunity Hub, which provides a platform for students, alumni, and staff to share their stories and invites us all to ask the question: who defines what is professional?
