More than 127,000 Japanese Americans were forcibly relocated and incarcerated in concentration camps in remote areas of the seven western U.S. states during World War II. Their crime? Ancestry. Almost two-thirds of the interns were Nisei, or U.S.-born. Even World War I veterans of Japanese descent were forcibly evacuated. Families were made at gunpoint to leave their homes, businesses, schools, their lives for spartan, communal tarpaper barracks in inhospitable regions. This powerful documentary premiered last May on PBS (available for streaming here). This discussion is open to all. Please register to receive the Zoom link prior to this session.

Koreatown, Los Angeles: Immigration, Race & the 'American Dream' (January 23, 2023 4:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/97163 97163-21794083@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Monday, January 23, 2023 4:00pm
Location: Haven Hall
Organized By: Asian/Pacific Islander American Studies

Shelley Sang-Hee Lee (American Studies, Brown) discusses her latest book Koreatown, Los Angeles: Immigration, Race & the 'American Dream.'
Beginning with the early development of LA's Koreatown and culminating with the 1992 Los Angeles riots and their aftermath, Lee demonstrates how Korean Americans' lives were shaped by patterns of racial segregation and urban poverty, and legacies of anti-Asian racism and orientalism. Koreatown, Los Angeles tells the story of an American ethnic community often equated with socioeconomic achievement and assimilation, but whose experiences as racial minorities and immigrant outsiders illuminate key economic and cultural developments in the United States since 1965.

MPSDS JPSM Seminar Series
February 15, 2023
12:00 - 1:00 EST

Richard Valliant, PhD, is a research professor emeritus at the Institute for Social Research, University of Michigan, and at the Joint Program in Survey Methodology at the University of Maryland. He is a Fellow of the American Statistical Association, an elected member of the International Statistical Institute, and has been an associate editor of the Journal of the American Statistical Association, Journal of Official Statistics, and Survey Methodology.

The Evolution of the Use of Models in Survey Sampling

The use of models in survey estimation has evolved over the last five (or more) decades. This talk will trace some of the developments over time and attempt to review some of the history. Consideration of models for estimating descriptive statistics began as early as the 1940's when Cochran and Jessen proposed linear regression estimators of means. These were early examples of model-assisted estimation since the properties of the Cochran-Jessen estimators were calculated with respect to a random sampling distribution. Model-thinking was used informally through the 1960's to form ratio and linear regression estimators that could in some applications reduce design variances.

In a 1963 Australian Journal of Statistics paper, Brewer presented results for a ratio estimator that were entirely based on a super population model. Royall (Biometrika 1970 and later papers) formalized the theory for a more general prediction approach using linear models. Since that time, the use of models is ubiquitous in the survey estimation literature and has been extended to nonparametric, empirical likelihood, Bayesian, small area, machine learning, and other approaches. There remains a considerable gap between the more advanced techniques in the literature and the methods commonly used in practice.

In parallel to the model developments, the design-based, randomization approach was dominating official statistics in the US largely due to the efforts of Morris Hansen and his colleagues at the US Census Bureau. In 1937 Hansen and others at the Census Bureau designed a follow-on sample survey to a special census of the employed and partially employed because response to the census was incomplete and felt to be inaccurate. The sample estimates were judged to be more trustworthy than those of the census itself. This began Hansen’s career-long devotion to random sampling as the only trustworthy method for obtaining samples from finite populations and for making inferences.

Model-assisted estimation, as discussed in the 1992 book by Särndal, Swensson, and Wretman is a type of compromise where models are used to construct estimators while a randomization distribution is used to compute properties like means and variances. This thinking has led to the popularity of doubly robust approaches where the goal is to have estimators with good properties with respect to both a randomization and a model distribution.

The field has now reached a troubling crossroads in which response rates to many types of surveys have plummeted and nonprobability datasets are touted as a way of obtaining reasonable quality data at low cost. Sophisticated model-based mathematical methods have been developed for estimation from nonprobability samples. In some applications, e.g., administrative data files that are incomplete due to late reporting, these methods may work well. However, in others the quality of nonprobability sample data is irremediably bad as illustrated by Kennedy in her 2022 Hansen lecture. In some situations, we are back in Morris' 1937 situation where standard approaches no longer work. Methods are needed to evaluate whether acceptable estimates can be made from the most suspect data sets. Nonetheless. nonprobability datasets are readily available now, and it is up to the statistical profession to develop good methods for using them.

Michigan Program in Survey and Data Science (MPSDS)
The University of Michigan Program in Survey Methodology was established in 2001 seeking to train future generations of survey and data scientists. In 2021, we changed our name to the Michigan Program in Survey and Data Science. Our curriculum is concerned with a broad set of data sources including survey data, but also including social media posts, sensor data, and administrative records, as well as analytic methods for working with these new data sources. And we bring to data science a focus on data quality — which is not at the center of traditional data science. The new name speaks to what we teach and work on at the intersection of social research and data. The program offers doctorate and master of science degrees and a certificate through the University of Michigan. The program's home is the Institute for Social Research, the world's largest academically-based social science research institute.

Summer Institute in Survey Research Techniques (SISRT)
The mission of the Summer Institute is to provide rigorous and high quality graduate training in all phases of survey research. The program teaches state-of-the-art practice and theory in the design, implementation, and analysis of surveys. The Summer Institute in Survey Research Techniques has presented courses on the sample survey since the summer of 1948, and has offered such courses every summer since. Graduate-level courses through the Program in Survey and Data Science are offered from June 5 through July 28 and available to enroll in as a Summer Scholar.

Amali Tower is the founder and executive director of Climate Refugees. She has extensive global experience in refugee protection, refugee resettlement and in forced migration and displacement contexts, having worked globally for numerous NGOs, the UN Refugee Agency and the US Refugee Admissions Program. Years of interviewing refugees fleeing conflict afforded her the chance to hear their stories of also fleeing climate change. Through this, Climate Refugees was born. She has conducted country and regional case studies and research in climate-induced displacement contexts, including in urban and camp settings. Her research on climate, conflict and displacement in the Lake Chad Basin in Africa’s Sahel was presented as evidence of loss and damage at COP 26 in Glasgow. Amali serves displaced populations as an experienced defender and her clients as a partner and advisor. She developed her work ethic, world views and deep commitment to forcibly displaced populations through a lived experience of instability, and as an immigrant and migrant. She’s born of that education, life in multiple countries, and also those at Columbia University, where she has a Master of International Affairs focused in Human Rights from the School of International and Public Affairs, and a BA in International Development Studies from UCLA. She resides in New York City.

Ann Arbor's First Orthodox Priest (February 20, 2023 7:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/104727 104727-21810022@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Monday, February 20, 2023 7:00pm
Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Classical Studies

Who was the first Orthodox Priest of Ann Arbor, and what can we learn from his life story today? This talk will follow the twists and turns in the life of Father Agathangelos, the first Greek-Orthodox priest to serve the spiritual needs of Ann Arbor nearly a century ago, and reflect on its broader meanings for Greek Orthodoxy in America.

Father Agathangelos was born and raised in Ottoman Cappadocia (central Anatolia) at the end of the nineteenth century, but his life was upended with the Greco-Turkish Population Exchange of 1923 (whose centennial we honor this year). The Exchange was at the time an unprecedented act of ethnic cleansing: The Republic of Turkey stripped nearly one and a half million indigenous Anatolian Christians of their citizenship and uprooted them to Greece, which in turn stripped Greek citizenship from nearly half a million indigenous Muslims of Greece and uprooted them to Turkey. This Compulsory Exchange upended the lives of nearly two million souls and set an international precedent for partition and forced population movements in later decades.

This talk will follow the refugee life and migrations of Father Agathangelos -- who, in addition to being a priest, was also a poet, a novelist, and an iconographer -- through his artwork and the traces he left behind. His first and only fluent language was Turkish, which he wrote in the Greek alphabet, known as "Karamanlidika Turkish." His poetry and his art reflect the rich cultural confluence of Anatolia before the Exchange, and it was this culture that he carried with him into refugeehood and his later migration to the United States. What can his life tell us about the enumenical breadth and cultural riches of Greek Orthodoxy in America? You are all warmly invited to join in this lecture and to share your own perspectives in an open-forum Q&A afterward.

William Stroebel is an Assistant Professor of Modern Greek and Comparative Literature in the departments of Classical Studies and Comparative Literature at the University of Michigan. His research focuses on recovering the refugee literatures displaced by the Greco-Turkish Population Exchange of 1923. The lecture will be accompanied with refreshments and a reception after the Q&A.

For more info and to apply: https://www.cew.umich.edu/advocacy-initiatives/twink-frey-visiting-social-activist-program

Each year the Twink Frey Visiting Social Activist (TFVSA) Program brings to CEW+ a social justice activist whose work affects women and recognizes gender equity issues. One goal of the program is to build the capacity and effectiveness of social activists by giving the TFVSA time, space, and support to work on a project that would not be possible under the activist’s usual working circumstances.

The TFVSA program gives the selected TFVSA time for reflection, research, planning, and writing related to their area of activism. Each TFVSA is required to work on a project that will advance their future work and potentially benefit other activists.

If selected, the applicant is invited to reside near campus for up to one month or make intermittent visits to Ann Arbor and work remotely. The 2024 residency will take place during the winter semester with a presentation of their project the following fall semester at the CEW+ Annual Advocacy Symposium. The activist receives a $10,000 stipend to cover their expenses while in Ann Arbor. Travel expenses to and from Ann Arbor are separately reimbursed by the endowment fund.

ELIGIBILITY

The TFVSA program supports activists whose work addresses gender equity issues that affect the lives of women and/or girls. The program defines social justice and equity programs broadly to include activism in such areas as housing, employment, income support, food security, education, violence, child care, health care, and employer benefits like paid sick leave and retirement income.

They received a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from Wayne State University and an MFA at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago (SAIC).

Nour currently serves on the Detroit Institute of Arts contemporary arts advisory group. They are the recipient of many awards, fellowships and grants that include the 2023 Modern Ancient Brown Fellowship, the ICI EXPO Curatorial Research Fellowship, the 2022 Michigan Arts and Cultural Council Grant, the 2021 Transforming Power Fund Grant, the 2019 Knight Arts Challenge Award, Kresge Arts in Detroit Gilda Award and many more.
