SUMMARY:Performance:Graham Colton
DESCRIPTION:Nearly five years since his break with major label Universal Music -- a relationship that spanned four years\, two albums and saw Colton perform on The Tonight Show\, The Late Show\, debut videos on TRL and more – Colton’s new album Lonely Ones marks a huge leap forward\, seeing him move away from his singer-songwriter past and into an entirely different direction. After reconnecting with himself as an artist outside the world of major label influence\, Colton began collaborating with good friend and fellow Oklahoma City musician Wayne Coyne and The Flaming Lips. Coyne inspired him to experiment and change the way he looked at the songwriting process. \n\n“Wayne loaned me some keyboards and told me to push buttons and songs would appear\,” said Colton. “And they did! It's amazing what happened when I put the guitar down.” \n\nColton holed up at Blackwatch Studios in Norman\, OK with producers/ bandmates Chad Copelin & Jarod Evans for 18 months to write and record the album. They enlisted Steven Drozd (Flaming Lips) to aide in the early recordings and offer new textures and sounds that Colton wouldn't otherwise use. The result is ten tracks of lush indie/psych pop gems\, each with its own interesting twist. Playful touches like handclaps and la-la-las accent ear-wormy melodies. As the follow-up to 2010’s Pacific Coast Eyes and 2008’s Twenty Something EP\, Lonely Ones shows not just growth but almost complete reinvention – an exciting move for an artist who has already seen his share of commercial success.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:4\,000 Years for Choice
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition combines two projects by graphic designer Heather Ault. \"4\,000 Years for Choice\" is an exhibition of posters about the age-old practice of abortion and contraception as a means to reclaim reproductive freedom as a deeply personal and life-sustaining act existing throughout all of human history. The \"Reproductive Roots\" series shines a bright light on the many voices from the abortion care and reproductive justice movements\, using vividly designed social media graphics and notecards to inspire conversations from a breadth of perspectives. \n\nHeather Ault is a visual artist\, pro-choice activist\, and independent scholar creating artwork to shift conversations about reproductive rights and justice. She uses vibrant graphics\, affirmative language\, and historical accounts to transform ugly discord into visual narratives that are beautiful and empowering.\n\nThe exhibition is presented by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Women's Studies Department. It is cosponsored by the Program for Sexual Rights and Reproductive Justice\, the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology and the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design. \n\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Paperweights & Studio Glass
DESCRIPTION:The American studio glass movement started in 1962 with glass workshops held at the Toledo Museum of Art. The workshops\, taught by Harvey Littleton along with scientist Dominick Labino\, introduced a small furnace built for working glass that made it possible for artists to work in independent studios. The studio glass movement quickly spread north to Michigan\, and in 1982\, a decision was made that studio glass would be the focus of the University of Michigan-Dearborn permanent art collection\, which is housed at the Alfred Berkowitz Gallery. This exhibition is a portion of that collection\, spotlighting studio glass art by major artists working in the medium\, including Dominick Labino\, Marvin Lipofsky and Richard Ritter.

SUMMARY:Other:Paying for the Party: How College Maintains Inequality
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Elizabeth A. Armstrong (Sociology\, Women's Studies\, Organizational Studies)\n\nDiscussants: \nMichael Bastedo (Center for the Study of Higher and Postsecondary Education)\,\nElizabeth Cole (Women’s Studies\, Psychology\, Afroamerican and African Studies)\,\nPhilip DeLoria (LSA Associate Dean for Undergraduate Education\, History & American Culture)\n\nSociologists Elizabeth Armstrong and Laura Hamilton spent five years tracking a cohort of college women at a large Midwestern public university from freshman year though graduation and into the labor force. Their findings reveal how outcomes can differ so dramatically for those whom universities enroll.\n\nIn an era of skyrocketing tuition and mounting concern over whether college is “worth it\,” \"Paying for the Party\" is an indispensable contribution to the dialogue assessing the state of American higher education. A powerful exposé of unmet obligations and misplaced priorities\, it explains in vivid detail why so many leave college with so little to show for it.\n\nGender: New Works\, New Questions draws attention to new works that engage gender and sexuality\, and are produced by U-M faculty members.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:4\,000 Years for Choice
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition combines two projects by graphic designer Heather Ault. \"4\,000 Years for Choice\" is an exhibition of posters about the age-old practice of abortion and contraception as a means to reclaim reproductive freedom as a deeply personal and life-sustaining act existing throughout all of human history. The \"Reproductive Roots\" series shines a bright light on the many voices from the abortion care and reproductive justice movements\, using vividly designed social media graphics and notecards to inspire conversations from a breadth of perspectives. \n\nHeather Ault is a visual artist\, pro-choice activist\, and independent scholar creating artwork to shift conversations about reproductive rights and justice. She uses vibrant graphics\, affirmative language\, and historical accounts to transform ugly discord into visual narratives that are beautiful and empowering.\n\nThe exhibition is presented by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Women's Studies Department. It is cosponsored by the Program for Sexual Rights and Reproductive Justice\, the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology and the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design. \n\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Paperweights & Studio Glass
DESCRIPTION:The American studio glass movement started in 1962 with glass workshops held at the Toledo Museum of Art. The workshops\, taught by Harvey Littleton along with scientist Dominick Labino\, introduced a small furnace built for working glass that made it possible for artists to work in independent studios. The studio glass movement quickly spread north to Michigan\, and in 1982\, a decision was made that studio glass would be the focus of the University of Michigan-Dearborn permanent art collection\, which is housed at the Alfred Berkowitz Gallery. This exhibition is a portion of that collection\, spotlighting studio glass art by major artists working in the medium\, including Dominick Labino\, Marvin Lipofsky and Richard Ritter.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CCS Noon Lecture Series: \"From Ruletakers to Rulemakers: Chinese and Global Governance\"
DESCRIPTION:\"Chinese government agencies\, companies\, and NGO's are become much more significant players in every area of global governance\, from trade remedies to the setting of technical standards to rules governing transnational investment. This presentation will explain how effectively Chinese are learning\, utilizing and shaping the rules of the game in these and other areas. Chinese effectiveness varies widely across regime areas\, and different kinds of Chinese companies have become more adept than others in their involvement. At the same time\, China's political system presents substantial obstacles to all Chinese being more effective and the country as a whole playing more of a leadership role globally.\n\nScott Kennedy (Ph.D.\, George Washington University\, 2002) is Director of the Research Center for Chinese Politics & Business (RCCPB)\, Associate Professor in the Departments of Political Science and East Asian Languages & Cultures\, and Adjunct Professor in the Kelley School of Business's Department of Business Economics and Public Policy at Indiana University. His research focuses on economic policymaking and global governance. He is author of The Business of Lobbying in China (Harvard University Press\, 2005)\; and editor of (with Shuaihua Cheng)\, From Rule Takers to Rule Makers: The Growing Role of Chinese in Global Governance (2012)\; Beyond the Middle Kingdom: Comparative Perspectives on China’s Capitalist Transformation (Stanford University Press\, 2011)\; and China Cross Talk: The American Debate over China Policy since Normalization: A Reader (Rowman & Littlefield\, 2003). He has published articles in China Quarterly\, China Journal\, Journal of Contemporary China\, China Economic Quarterly\, Business and Society\, Political Science Quarterly\, World Policy Journal\, and Problems of Post-Communism.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Ambiguity of Virtue: Gertrude van Tijn and the Fate of the Dutch Jews during the Holocaust
DESCRIPTION:The Ambiguity of Virtue: Gertrude van Tijn and the Fate of the Dutch Jews challenges the simplistic\, ahistorical interpretation of the role of the Nazi-appointed Jewish councils in Nazi-occupied Europe that was offered by Hannah Arendt in her Eichmann in Jerusalem. The Ambiguity of Virtue tells the story of Gertrude van Tijn’s work on behalf of her fellow Jews as the avenues that might save them were closed off.  Between 1933 and 1940 Van Tijn helped organize Jewish emigration from Germany. After the Germans occupied Holland\, she worked for the Jewish Council in Amsterdam and enabled many Jews to escape. Some later called her a heroine\; others denounced her as a collaborator. Was she merely a pawn of the Nazis\, or should she be commended for taking advantage of such opportunities as offered themselves to save Jews from the gas chambers? In such impossible circumstances\, what is just action\, and what is complicity?

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:WCED Lecture
DESCRIPTION:Pavel Ivlev\, chairman\, Committee for Russian Economic Freedom\n\nIn this lecture\, Pavel Ivlev will draw on his experience as Russian legal counsel to Yukos Oil and its management to analyze the case at its deepest level. Ivlev argues that the Khodorkovsky/Yukos affair reveals the flawed Russian prosecution and judiciary system that can prioritize politics over due process\, and that Putin’s regime works against free markets\, sound corporate governance\, transparency\, and the rule of law. He will draw lessons from the case that he feels anyone interested in dealing with Russia and its people should learn. \n\nPavel Ivlev\, former lawyer for Yukos and Mikhail Khodorkovsky\, fled to New York from Russia under fear of unjust prosecution. A district court in Moscow issued an arrest warrant for Ivlev in 2005 on charges of embezzlement and money laundering\, identical to those of Khodorkovsky and Lebedev. Ivlev believed that the arrest warrant was a result of his refusal to provide false incriminating evidence against Khodorkovsky and other key Yukos managers. Ivlev has vowed not to return to Russia. A graduate of Moscow State University Law School in 1993\, Ivlev also studied law at Columbia University (New York) and Queen Mary College (London)\, and is a member of the International Bar Association and the U.S.-Russia Business Council. In 1997 Ivlev became a partner at a leading Moscow-based international law firm\, ALM Feldmans\, which was effectively destroyed by the broader attack on Yukos and its advisors. Ivlev is Chairman of the Committee for Russian Economic Freedom\, which he founded in 2009 to campaign for “free markets\, free people\, and free ideas in Russia.”\n\nPart of the series Pluralism in Politics and Culture\, a new initiative jointly sponsored by CREES and WCED that examines the foundations of free and open societies. The project builds on the university’s rich legacy of study and support of the dissident culture in the former Soviet Union and on several existing efforts at U-M. The series focuses on multiple facets of political pluralism\, including its legal\, cultural\, and economic dimensions\, and explore them in a broader historical context.\n\nSponsors: WCED\, CREES

SUMMARY:Other:CCS Film Event: Piercing I
DESCRIPTION:PIERCING I\n\nDir. LIU Jian\, 2010\nChina\, 75 min.\nChinese with English subtitles\n\nQ&A with film director Liu Jian will take place immediately after the screening.\n\nPIERCING I marks the first independently produced\, feature-length animation film to come out of China. In the heart of a Chinese factory town filled with darkness and corruption\, two young\, unemployed men struggle to make better lives for themselves and are willing to risk everything. Through an absurd chain of events that brings together an unlikely cast of characters–the wealthiest businessman in town and his competitor\, along with a corrupt\, thuggish Police Bureau and two irreverent young anti-heroes–the film presents the social realities of urban China in a strikingly raw\, sardonic vision. The film was hand-drawn\, frame-by-frame\, over a three-year period by filmmaker Liu Jian. With a deft style that reveals humor and poignancy in the context of everyday life in contemporary China\, Liu Jian’s PIERCING I is lucid\, compelling\, and provocatively original.\n\nLiu Jian studied Chinese landscape painting and graduated from the Nanjing University of the Arts in 1993. Over the past two decades\, his work has drawn on a range of media and aesthetic approaches and has been presented at major exhibitions both in China and abroad. In 1995\, he began making works of animation\, and in 2007 he independently established the Le-joy Animation Studio. His first feature-length animation work\, PIERCING I (2010)\, has received numerous prestigious awards at film festivals across Asia and Europe.\n\nFree and open to the public.

SUMMARY:Performance:Habib Koite
DESCRIPTION:Malian guitarist Habib Koité is one of Africa’s most popular and recognized musicians. He comes from a noble line of Khassonké griots\, traditional troubadors who provide wit\, wisdom and musical entertainment at social gatherings and special events\, but \"nobody really taught me to sing or to play the guitar\,\" he explains. \"I watched my parents\, and it washed off on me.\" Habib takes some unique approaches to playing the guitar. Sometimes he plays music that sounds close to the blues or flamenco\, two styles he studied under Khalilou Traoré\, a veteran of the legendary Afro-Cuban band Maravillas du Mali. Habib's latest release\, \"Afriki\,\" finds him exploring new musical directions. The album's overarching theme is the strengths and challenges of the African continent. “People here in Africa are willing to risk death trying to leave for Europe or the USA\, but they are not willing to take that risk staying to develop something here in Africa\,” says Habib. “Life can be really good or really bad wherever you live. People need to understand that. Even though Mali is poor\, we still have good quality of life: You can walk outside and smile and someone will smile back. I have thought about it a lot\, and I am not sure if poor countries have a worse quality of life.”

SUMMARY:Exhibition:4\,000 Years for Choice
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition combines two projects by graphic designer Heather Ault. \"4\,000 Years for Choice\" is an exhibition of posters about the age-old practice of abortion and contraception as a means to reclaim reproductive freedom as a deeply personal and life-sustaining act existing throughout all of human history. The \"Reproductive Roots\" series shines a bright light on the many voices from the abortion care and reproductive justice movements\, using vividly designed social media graphics and notecards to inspire conversations from a breadth of perspectives. \n\nHeather Ault is a visual artist\, pro-choice activist\, and independent scholar creating artwork to shift conversations about reproductive rights and justice. She uses vibrant graphics\, affirmative language\, and historical accounts to transform ugly discord into visual narratives that are beautiful and empowering.\n\nThe exhibition is presented by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Women's Studies Department. It is cosponsored by the Program for Sexual Rights and Reproductive Justice\, the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology and the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design. \n\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Paperweights & Studio Glass
DESCRIPTION:The American studio glass movement started in 1962 with glass workshops held at the Toledo Museum of Art. The workshops\, taught by Harvey Littleton along with scientist Dominick Labino\, introduced a small furnace built for working glass that made it possible for artists to work in independent studios. The studio glass movement quickly spread north to Michigan\, and in 1982\, a decision was made that studio glass would be the focus of the University of Michigan-Dearborn permanent art collection\, which is housed at the Alfred Berkowitz Gallery. This exhibition is a portion of that collection\, spotlighting studio glass art by major artists working in the medium\, including Dominick Labino\, Marvin Lipofsky and Richard Ritter.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:ASP Lecture
DESCRIPTION:Ayse Parla\, associate professor of anthropology\, Sabanci University\n\nA recent revision to the regulation on education seemingly grants Armenian migrant children access to education in Turkey regardless of their legal status. However\, rather than constituting an actual right\, the revision in question limits access to “guest status\,” and thus adds yet another state of exception to the migration regime in Turkey that primarily operates through amnesties rather than rights for undocumented migrants. Although Turkey has ratified the UN Declaration on the Rights of Children\, which ensures access to elementary education for children regardless of legal status\, the very recent 2013 law on the Protection of Foreigners does not address the question of the education rights of undocumented children.  Given this general legal impasse\, which concerns all undocumented children in Turkey\, Parla’s research is particularly concerned with the additional states of exception that pertain to the specificity of being an Armenian undocumented migrant. Besides the problem of “guest status\,” what other reasons underlie many of the Armenian migrants’ reluctance to send their children to the Armenian minority schools in Istanbul? Why do they opt for the informal school in Kumkapi instead? What is the role of language\, social class\, and the legacy of the Soviet experience in shaping their decisions? While attending to the distinctive educational predicament of the Armenian migrant children vis-à-vis Istanbul Armenians\, Parla also examines the overarching structural violence that affects both groups with regard to “minority education” in a national culture marked by the denial of the genocide as well as the systematic injustices that have since continued.\n\nAyse Parla received her B.A. from Harvard in 1995 and her Ph.D. in anthropology from New York University in 2005. Since then she has been teaching at Sabanci University\, where she is associate professor of Anthropology. She has completed a three year TUBITAK project on the legalization strategies of Turkish migrants from Bulgaria. As a 2011 recipient of the Turkish Academy of Sciences Exceptional Young Scholar Award (TÃœBA-GEBÄ°P)\, her current research project involves a critical examination of the “Europeanization” of the field of migration in Turkey through a  focus on  undocumented migrants’ children’s access to education.   She has published her research on questions of migration\, citizenship\, labor\, and ethnicity in various journals including Alternatives: Global\, Local\, Political\; American Ethnologist\; Citizenship Studies\; Cultural Anthropology\; Differences\; and International Migration.

SUMMARY:Performance:Fair Lane Music Guild - CutTime Simfonica 
DESCRIPTION:RESCHEDULED due to weather from February 5 to February 19.\n\nThe Fair Lane Music Guild continues its 44th anniversary season at 7:30 p.m. on Wednesday\, February 19 as the Guild welcomes CutTime Simfonica in performance.  The Guild continues its weeknight\, café seating format\, which provides the opportunity to offer dessert concerts.  Doors will open and service will begin one half hour prior to the concerts.\n\nCome celebrate the life of the late Fair Lane Music Guild board member Paul Zitzewitz with the lively and intimate adventures of Rick Robinson\, whose symphonic adaptations\, personal compositions and club series are warming up classical music for new audiences. Inspired by 23 years with the DSO\, Robinson has been called \"a modern day Dvorak\" for writing fully romantic music which blends with urban and folk styles to immediately appeal to everyone. Mr. CutTime brings back his string sextet plus a woodwind soloist for a magical mix of the familiar with the surprising. The program will include music of Mozart and Duke Ellington\, Robinson's popular Pork 'n Beans and Mahleresque Idyll for solo English horn\, and conclude with Enesco's gypsy Romanian Rhapsody No. 1.  \n\nThe concert is sponsored by the University of Michigan Credit Union and will include a dessert table sponsored by the Drusilla Farwell Foundation.  This activity is also funded in part by the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the Michigan Humanities Council.\n\nAll Fair Lane Music Guild concerts are held at the Henry Ford Estate – Fair Lane.  (The Henry Ford Estate is currently closed for renovations\, but thanks to the generosity of the Historic Ford Estates and the University of Michigan-Dearborn\, the Guild is being allowed to use the Pool Room for these concerts.)  Tickets are $15/person\, $14 for senior citizens and $9 for students.  Cash or check\, please. Free lighted parking.  For more information about season tickets or individual concert ticket sales\, please call the Fair Lane Music Guild at (313) 593-5330\, or go to http://flmg.umd.umich.edu/\n

SUMMARY:Performance:Tom Rush
DESCRIPTION:Tom Rush may not be as well known as some fellow veterans of Club 47 in 1960s Cambridge\, Massachusetts–people like Joan Baez\, Bob Dylan\, and Judy Collins. Yet he's second to none in terms of his impact down through the years. Rush's three albums for Elektra in the 1960s were key founding documents of the entire singer-songwriter concept\, and he's influenced everyone from James Taylor to Garth Brooks. A performer with an abiding love of being in front of an audience\, Rush is a rib-tickling storyteller\, an expressive singer\, and a guitarist capable of real melancholy. He's an Ark favorite\, and\, says the Chicago Tribune\, he's \"probably the only man alive who should be allowed to sing Joni Mitchell songs.\" Tom Rush is\, in short\, folk royalty. Tom recently released \"What I Know\,\" his first studio album in 30 years\, and the Montreal Gazette opined that he \"still has that deep\, relaxed voice that gives listeners the impression they're old friends listening in on a musical conversation.\" Come by and pick up a copy of Tom's new live CD/DVD\, recorded at Boston's Symphony Hall.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:4\,000 Years for Choice
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition combines two projects by graphic designer Heather Ault. \"4\,000 Years for Choice\" is an exhibition of posters about the age-old practice of abortion and contraception as a means to reclaim reproductive freedom as a deeply personal and life-sustaining act existing throughout all of human history. The \"Reproductive Roots\" series shines a bright light on the many voices from the abortion care and reproductive justice movements\, using vividly designed social media graphics and notecards to inspire conversations from a breadth of perspectives. \n\nHeather Ault is a visual artist\, pro-choice activist\, and independent scholar creating artwork to shift conversations about reproductive rights and justice. She uses vibrant graphics\, affirmative language\, and historical accounts to transform ugly discord into visual narratives that are beautiful and empowering.\n\nThe exhibition is presented by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Women's Studies Department. It is cosponsored by the Program for Sexual Rights and Reproductive Justice\, the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology and the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design. \n\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Paperweights & Studio Glass
DESCRIPTION:The American studio glass movement started in 1962 with glass workshops held at the Toledo Museum of Art. The workshops\, taught by Harvey Littleton along with scientist Dominick Labino\, introduced a small furnace built for working glass that made it possible for artists to work in independent studios. The studio glass movement quickly spread north to Michigan\, and in 1982\, a decision was made that studio glass would be the focus of the University of Michigan-Dearborn permanent art collection\, which is housed at the Alfred Berkowitz Gallery. This exhibition is a portion of that collection\, spotlighting studio glass art by major artists working in the medium\, including Dominick Labino\, Marvin Lipofsky and Richard Ritter.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CJS Noon Lecture Series: The Greatest Pirate in Japan
DESCRIPTION:This presentation traces the career of Noshima Murakami Takeyoshi (1533-1604)\, a seafarer whom Jesuit visitors dubbed the “Greatest Pirate in Japan.”  I integrate Japanese and foreign representations of Japanese pirates in order to show how seafarers like Takeyoshi employed reputations\, performances of lordship\, and protection businesses so as to inspire authorities and travelers to recognize them as legitimate rulers over sprawling\, sea-based domains. I show how an exploration of pirates can reveal maritimedimensions of the local autonomy that was a hallmark of Japan’s late medieval age\, contest the land-centered biases in both historical sources and modernhistories\, and provide a transnational perspective on sixteenth-century Japan.\n\nPeter D. Shapinsky is associate professor of history at the University of Illinois\, Springfield and the author of Lords of the Sea: Pirates\, Violence\, and Commerce in Late Medieval Japan (Center for Japanese Studies\, University of Michigan).

SUMMARY:Performance:Gifts of Art presents West African Kora Music 
DESCRIPTION:Mady Kouyate was born in Senegal into a highly respected centuries-old line of musicians and praise singers known as Djelys\, or Griots. In West Africa\, Griots (traditional historians\, genealogists and storytellers) keep history alive in their story and song. One of the Griots' traditional instruments\, the kora\, is a lute-like instrument made from a large calabash with 21 strings. The Kouyate family\, including both of Mady Kouyate's parents\, his uncle\, and his brother\, were his first and best teachers of the artistry of music and verse. He also studied with the famous Toumani Diabate while attending L'institute Nationale Des Arts. Kouyate now lives in the US\, and he wishes to share with you the wisdom of his fathers.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Conversations on Europe
DESCRIPTION:Peter Bratsis\, assistant professor of political science\, Borough of Manhattan Community College\n\nTaking up key arguments and concepts from Norbert Elias\, this talk will focus on how changes in popular culture as well as the temporal and spatial characteristics of capitalism in Europe have undone the civilizing process as understood by Elias. Economic integration increasingly has become a source of conflict and antagonism rather than a way of cementing political alliances. Similarly\, cultural patterns have led to a turn away from tempering our own animality and short-term interests so as to ensure ever-stronger forms of social cooperation and long-term stability. As a consequence\, the ability of European societies to reproduce themselves both individually and as a cohesive group is now in doubt.\n\nPeter Bratsis teaches political science at the City University of New York. He is a founding editor of the journal Situations: Project of the Radical Imagination\; author of Everyday Life and the State (Paradigm\, 2006)\; and editor\, with Stanley Aronowitz\, of Paradigm Lost: State Theory Reconsidered (Minnesota\, 2002). His most recent publication is “Political Corruption in the Age of Transnational Capitalism: From the Relative Autonomy of the State to the White Man's Burden” in Historical Materialism (2013).\n\nSponsors: CES\, Modern Greek Program\, WCED

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EEB Thursday Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Persistence of populations through climate change demands biogeographic shifts of species\, evolutionary adaptation of populations or local acclimatization of individuals. For long-lived\, sessile foundation species that create ecosystem habitat such as forest trees or reef building corals\, range shifts and evolution are predicted to be slow. As a consequence\, the rate and scope of acclimatization in these species to future environmental conditions is central to understanding the impact of climate change. In recent decades\, reef building corals have experienced global declines due\, in part\, to extreme bleaching events sparked by pulses of warm water exposure. However\, corals in naturally warm environments can have higher resistance to bleaching temperatures than conspecifics in cooler microclimates\, making these populations ideal test sites for research into the mechanisms of coral response to climate change. We use transplants between microclimates\, physiological testing and transcriptomics to show that corals can acquire partial heat tolerance through gene expression changes in warm microclimates. Though acclimatization and fixed differences between populations contribute similarly to bleaching tolerance\, acclimatization achieves the same phenotypic change in less than two years as would strong selection over many generations for these long-lived organisms. Acclimation and adaptation may both be important in future response of corals and coral reefs to gradual ocean warming\, and including these process in predictive models will make for better evaluation of coral reef future

SUMMARY:Other:ISIS-Interdisciplinary Seminar on Islamic Studies. Localizing Islam through Transnational Influences
DESCRIPTION:Azra AkÅ¡amija is a Sarajevo born artist and architectural historian. AkÅ¡amija graduated from the Faculty of Architecture at the Technical University Graz\, Austria in 2001\, and received her M.Arch. from Princeton University\, USA in 2004\, and Ph.D. from MIT (HTC / AKPIA) in 2011. In her multi-disciplinary practice\, she investigates the potency of art and architecture to facilitate the process of transformative mediation in cultural or political conflicts\, and in so doing\, provide a framework for researching\, analyzing\, and intervening in contested socio-political realities. Her recent work focuses on representation of Islamic identities in the West\, spatial mediation of identity politics\, and cultural pedagogy through art and architecture.\n\nAkÅ¡amija’s academic research highlights the significance of ethnic symbols\, long-term cultural factors\, and global cultural flows in the creation of contemporary nations. In her Ph.D. dissertation\, AkÅ¡amija examined how Bosnian Muslims construct their identity through the lens of rebuilt or newly built mosques following the systematic destruction of religious architecture during the 1992-1995 Bosnian War. Her academic inquiry informs her ongoing artistic explorations about Islam in the West and the conflicts over visibility of Muslims in the United States and Europe.

SUMMARY:Performance:Nuala Kennedy Band
DESCRIPTION:Nuala Kennedy is a singer and flutist playing traditional music from Scotland\, Ireland\, and the fathomless realms of her own imagination. Nuala grew up in Dundalk\, County Louth\, on the East coast of Ireland\, a musical area steeped in mythology and with long historical links to Scotland. At 18\, Nuala moved to Scotland\, where she was tremendously influenced by fellow Irish expatriate Cathal McConnel\, who over the years played an important mentorship role in Nuala’s music. Her instrumental prowess deepened and her repertoire expanded to include both Scottish and Irish tunes. She moved again to Inverness in the Highlands in 2007 to deepen her knowledge of the Scots Gaelic musical traditions. This one-year intensive study of the best influences of the two cultures expanded Nuala’s knowledge and repertoire even more\, bringing her instrumentation and vocals to highly adventurous level. Nuala’s contribution to traditional music has been recognized in her adopted homeland of Scotland\, where she has been awarded numerous grants and commissions. She comes to Michigan with a new album\, \"Noble Stranger.\"\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:4\,000 Years for Choice
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition combines two projects by graphic designer Heather Ault. \"4\,000 Years for Choice\" is an exhibition of posters about the age-old practice of abortion and contraception as a means to reclaim reproductive freedom as a deeply personal and life-sustaining act existing throughout all of human history. The \"Reproductive Roots\" series shines a bright light on the many voices from the abortion care and reproductive justice movements\, using vividly designed social media graphics and notecards to inspire conversations from a breadth of perspectives. \n\nHeather Ault is a visual artist\, pro-choice activist\, and independent scholar creating artwork to shift conversations about reproductive rights and justice. She uses vibrant graphics\, affirmative language\, and historical accounts to transform ugly discord into visual narratives that are beautiful and empowering.\n\nThe exhibition is presented by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Women's Studies Department. It is cosponsored by the Program for Sexual Rights and Reproductive Justice\, the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology and the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design. \n\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Paperweights & Studio Glass
DESCRIPTION:The American studio glass movement started in 1962 with glass workshops held at the Toledo Museum of Art. The workshops\, taught by Harvey Littleton along with scientist Dominick Labino\, introduced a small furnace built for working glass that made it possible for artists to work in independent studios. The studio glass movement quickly spread north to Michigan\, and in 1982\, a decision was made that studio glass would be the focus of the University of Michigan-Dearborn permanent art collection\, which is housed at the Alfred Berkowitz Gallery. This exhibition is a portion of that collection\, spotlighting studio glass art by major artists working in the medium\, including Dominick Labino\, Marvin Lipofsky and Richard Ritter.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Using Learning Analytics to Measure Out-of-Class Learning: U-M Learning Communities and Medical School Study Resources
DESCRIPTION:Presentation #1: Exploring the Impact of Michigan Learning Communities\nPresentation #2: “What we do may not always be good for us”: Analytics of Michigan Medical Students’ Histology Study Strategies and Learning Success\n \nOut-of-class experiences have been found to have a significant impact on student learning. These two SLAM presentations will focus on using learning analytics to measure outcomes in two different out-of-class contexts at U-M: Michigan Living-Learning Communities and online learning resources for Medical and Dental School students.\n\nStudents engage in a variety of co-curricular activities to enhance their educational experience.  But what impact do these programs have on academic achievement? In \"Exploring the Impact of Michigan Learning Communities\,\" Jennifer Maltby (Associate Director\, Michigan Research Community) will present results from a multi-year effort to assess the impact of six residential Learning Communities at the University of Michigan.\n\nIn the second SLAM presentation\, Michael Hortsch and collaborators will present the results from their research which explores how first year medical and dental students at the University of Michigan make choices from among an array of study resources\, both traditional and electronic\, for learning the basic science subject of histology or microanatomy. Dr. Hortsch and his team will also discuss how the use of these didactic aids correlates with students' quiz and examination results. Michael Hortsch is Associate Professor of Cell and Developmental Biology and Medical Education\, University of Michigan Medical School. Collaborators include Louisa Holaday (M3)\, Stephanie Johnson (D3)\, Daniel Selvig (M4) and Joel Purkiss\, University of Michigan Medical School.\n\nThis event is open to all faculty\, graduate students\, and postdocs. Please register in advance at http://www.crlt.umich.edu/node/58492.\n\nThe Student Learning and Analytics at Michigan (SLAM) Seminar series features both U-M faculty and visitors from other campuses\, focusing on the use of data about students\, courses and academic programs -- for the purposes of improving teaching and learning.

DESCRIPTION:John Forester\, Professor of City and Regional Planning at Cornell University\, earned his B.S. and M.S.M.E. degrees (1970\, 1971) before his M.C.P. and Ph.D. in planning (1974\, 1977) at U.C. Berkeley. Forester's early work assessed the micro-politics of planning practices before going on to explore these concerns via a Studs Terkel-like approach\, collecting and analyzing practice-focused\, first person voice \"profiles of practitioners.\" More recently\, Forester has studied the ways planners working in contentious settings could learn from mediators of public disputes. Working in-between parties with conflicting interests and values\, and ample anger\, distrust and fear\, experienced mediators can provide planners with wise practical advice (that can be theoretically interesting too). This work includes Dealing with Differences: Dramas of Mediating Public Disputes (2009) and Planning in the Face of Conflict (2013). Forester’s current projects involve post-Katrina New Orleans (with Ken Reardon)\, street level governance (with David Laws)\, placemaker profiles\, and the challenges of improvisation in planning.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:\"Lighting up the Universe: Witnessing Cosmic Dawn\"\, Professor Martha P. Haynes Cornell University
DESCRIPTION:Thirteen and a half billion years ago\, four hundred thousand years after the Big Bang\, the universe had expanded and cooled enough for hydrogen atoms to form. All was darkness. It took another few hundred million years before stars and galaxies lit up the universe\, ending the cosmic \"dark age.\"\n\nProfessor Haynes will talk about what we know about the first stars\, galaxies\, and supermassive black holes. She will also show how new and future telescopes will enable us to witness the epoch of \"cosmic dawn.\"\n\n----\n\nMartha Haynes is the Goldwin Smith Professor of Astronomy at Cornell University. Her research interests include galaxy formation\, cosmology\, and radio astronomy. She is the vice-president of the International Astronomical Union\, a fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science\, and a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and of the National Academy of Sciences.

DESCRIPTION:In the words of Claire Lynch\, Nora Jane Struthers \"infuses bright\, fresh lyrics into this traditional genre with sheer intelligence. Musically\, she take unconventional twists and turns\, while 'holding you to the road' with commanding charm.\" With her new album\, \"Carnival\,\" this Brooklyn-to-Nashville transplant has taken Music City by storm with a terrific group of original songs that are by turns breezy and deadly serious. Nora Jane's albums have attracted A-list instrumentalists\, and NPR Music raves: \"Fans of Dixie Chicks\, Alison Krauss and Dolly Parton\, take notice: Nora Jane Struthers embodies everything you could want in an Americana singer-songwriter.” Her sound is a bit bluegrass\, a bit old-time\, and a bit Americana\, and she's putting all these together in whole new ways!\n

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Saturday Morning Physics
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: David Weinberg (Ohio State University Astronomy)\n\nSince 2004\, David Weinberg has been collaborating with artist Josiah McElheny on the design of cosmologically inspired sculptures\, which represent the history of the expanding universe and the formation of structure within it.  In this talk\, he will describe these sculptures and the astronomical concepts that underlie them\, which include the nature of cosmic expansion\, the transition from an opaque universe to a transparent universe\, the formation and clustering of galaxies and quasars\, the seeding of cosmic structure by primordial fluctuations in the early universe\, and the possibility that our observable cosmos is only an \"island\" in a larger \"multiverse.\" The sculptures that have emerged from this collaboration have been exhibited in galleries and museums across the U.S. and Europe.

SUMMARY:Performance:Ryan Montbleau
DESCRIPTION:Vermont's Burlington Free Press says Ryan Montbleau is \"difficult to describe\, tough to resist.\" He and his band make catchy folk-pop with lyrics made for singing along. But what really sets the music apart is instrumental artistry that adds deeper jazz and funk layers to the sound. \"With a finger-picking style that has been compared to Leo Kottke and Ani DiFranco\, soul-folk songwriting skills in the tradition of Martin Sexton\, and a singing voice constantly compared to Stevie Wonder\, there is clearly an abundance of talent here\,\" the Green Mountain College Journal says of former coffeehouse folkster Montbleau. And Ryan may be a Northeasterner\, but there's a zydeco layer in his music too! Ryan's latest album\, \"For Higher\,\" was recorded with a great lineup of New Orleans musicians (call it getting in touch with your inner Acadian)\, and it contains a great cover of Eddie Hinton's \"Yeah Man.\"\n
