Born in 1923\, Metcalf is a native of Ohio. He began his education at the University of Michigan in 1941 but his studies were halted during World War II. After serving in Europe\, Metcalf returned to Ann Arbor and finished his degree in 1950. Upon graduation\, he worked as an apprentice to George B. Brigham and began teaching Architecture at the University of Michigan. Metcalf began his own practice in 1953 and completed over 120 projects Ann Arbor and the Detroit Metro area. \nThis exhibition presents 13 domestic projects that span his six-decade-long career from 1953-2008\, highlighting his straightforward design aesthetic\, featuring many of his iconic flat-roofed houses. Each project selected exemplifies Metcalf’s mid-century modern architectural vocabulary that results in functional\, minimalist spaces for living.\n\nThis exhibition presents 13 domestic projects that span his six-decade-long career from 1953-2008\, highlighting his straightforward design aesthetic\, featuring many of his iconic flat-roofed houses. Each project selected exemplifies Metcalf’s mid-century modern architectural vocabulary that results in functional\, minimalist spaces for living.\n\nThree Michigan Architects: Part 2–Metcalf is the second in a series of three consecutive exhibitions\, with subsequent presentation of domestic work by George Brigham (July 19–October 12\, 2014). Part 1 of the series presented the work of David Osler (December 21\, 2013–March 30\, 2013). The series will culminate in Fall 2014 with a symposium\, as well as the publication of Three Michigan Architects: Osler\, Metcalf\, and Brigham–both of which will explore the importance of this circle of Ann Arbor-based architects\, situating their regional body of domestic work into the larger context of modern architecture in the U.S. that developed on the East Coast and West Coast from the 1930s–1980s.\n UID:16957-1199990@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/16957 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:exhibit,umma LOCATION:Museum of Art CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20140225T155704 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20140413T113000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20140413T124500 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Special Event DESCRIPTION:To register for this free program\, email umma-program-registration@umich.edu or call 734.647.0522 for more information.\n\nMeet Me at UMMA invites people with mild memory loss to enjoy a guided gallery experience along with family members or care partners.

Each spring he brings in blues and jazz singers and players that you may not have heard before for a mini musicians' summit\, right here at The Ark! This year's concerts feature fan favorite Axel Zwingenberger\, accompanying classic blues singer Lila Ammons. Lila has forged a path in music that at once honors tradition and her own expressive impulses. Beginning her vocal career in opera houses and concert halls\, she later returned to her familial roots in jazz and the boogie woogie tradition (she is the niece of tenor sax titan Gene ï ¿ ½Jugï ¿ ½ Ammons and the granddaughter of the great boogie woogie pianist Albert Ammons). She gained popular and critical acclaim touring Europe and Brazil with German pianist Axel Zwingenberger\, and as featured vocalist with the ABC&D of Boogie Woogie Quartet with Zwingenberger and Charlie Watts. Through recordings and live performances alike\, Ammons continues to attract new audiences with her nuanced vocal jazz narratives\, a respect for traditional blues and jazz idioms\, and an unpredictability that delights. Accompanist Zwingenberger has been dubbed the Boogiemeister of the World. He's a star in his own right\, with three decades of recordings under his belt and has inspired hundreds of musicians\, in his native Europe and beyond\, to learn boogie woogie and keep the form alive.\n\nNote special start time!

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.

Born in 1923\, Metcalf is a native of Ohio. He began his education at the University of Michigan in 1941 but his studies were halted during World War II. After serving in Europe\, Metcalf returned to Ann Arbor and finished his degree in 1950. Upon graduation\, he worked as an apprentice to George B. Brigham and began teaching Architecture at the University of Michigan. Metcalf began his own practice in 1953 and completed over 120 projects Ann Arbor and the Detroit Metro area. \nThis exhibition presents 13 domestic projects that span his six-decade-long career from 1953-2008\, highlighting his straightforward design aesthetic\, featuring many of his iconic flat-roofed houses. Each project selected exemplifies Metcalf’s mid-century modern architectural vocabulary that results in functional\, minimalist spaces for living.\n\nThis exhibition presents 13 domestic projects that span his six-decade-long career from 1953-2008\, highlighting his straightforward design aesthetic\, featuring many of his iconic flat-roofed houses.

Part 1 of the series presented the work of David Osler (December 21\, 2013–March 30\, 2013). The series will culminate in Fall 2014 with a symposium\, as well as the publication of Three Michigan Architects: Osler\, Metcalf\, and Brigham–both of which will explore the importance of this circle of Ann Arbor-based architects\, situating their regional body of domestic work into the larger context of modern architecture in the U.S. that developed on the East Coast and West Coast from the 1930s–1980s.\n UID:16957-1199991@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/16957 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:exhibit,umma LOCATION:Museum of Art CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20140404T113331 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20140414T160000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Armed with Expertise: The Militarization of American Social Research during the Cold War DESCRIPTION:Free and open to the public.\nReception and book signing to follow.\n\nAbout the book\n\nArmed with Expertise: The Militarization of American Social Research during the Cold War\nDuring the height of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan\, the Pentagon launched a controversial counterinsurgency program called the Human Terrain System. The program embedded social scientists within military units to provide commanders with information about the cultures and grievances of local populations. Yet the controversy it inspired was not new. Decades earlier\, similar national security concerns brought the Department of Defense and American social scientists together in the search for intellectual weapons that could combat the spread of communism during the Cold War. In Armed with Expertise\, Joy Rohde traces the optimistic rise\, anguished fall\, and surprising rebirth of Cold War–era military-sponsored social research.\n\nAbout the event\n\nWith remarks from Alan Deardorff and Gabrielle Hecht\nJoy Rohde will remark on major points of the book and answer questions from the audience.\n\nFollowing the talk\, copies of Armed with Expertise will be available for purchase and signing by the author.\n\nThe Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy is proud to host this book talk as one of the highlights of the school's year-long centennial celebrations.

DESCRIPTION:Does sex have any erotic purpose? Does it advance the lover's goal? Is sex what the lover really wants? The greatest philosophers of classical antiquity say no. According to one argument\, it is not love which aims at sex or which seeks to express itself through sex. It is sex which aims at love. Professor Halperin examines this argument and connects it with forms of contemporary gay male eroticism.\n\nDavid M. Halperin is the W. H. Auden Distinguished University Professor of the History and Theory of Sexuality at the University of Michigan\, where he is also Professor of English Language and Literature\, Women’s Studies\, Comparative Literature\, and Classical Studies.\n UID:16415-1199463@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/16415 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:ancient philosophy,david halperin,lgbtq,philosophy,sex,sexuality LOCATION:Hatcher Graduate Library - Gallery (Room 100) CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130911T114316 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20140414T161500 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20140414T170000 SUMMARY:Social / Informal Gathering:Managing Anxiety DESCRIPTION:Managing Anxiety \nwhether you worry too much about school\, relationships\, or anything else\, these sessions are designed to help you manage your stress and anxiety. \n\nEach Monday 4:15-5:30 p.m. you and other interested students will meet with a counselor and focus on one of the most frequent concerns of U-M students.

Like millions of other young people\, he was sent to the countryside for re-education during the final years of the Cultural Revolution. After the death of his mother in 1976\, Yang began to write poetry. Back in Beijing\, as one of the leading experimental poets\, he was associated with the underground literary periodical Jintian (Today).\n\nYang Lian is best known as a poet\, but he also writes prose\, literary criticism and art criticism. His work\, which comprises half a score of poetry collections and two volumes of prose\, has been translated into over twenty languages. It includes: Dead in Exile (1989)\, Masks & Crocodile (1990)\, Non-person Singular (1995)\, Yi (2002)\, Notes of a Blissful Ghost (2002) and Concentric Circles (2006). He is regarded as one of the most representative voices of present-day Chinese literature.\n\nA recent passion and project of Yang Lian is to encourage the production and translation of poetry written in dialects of Chinese: Sichuan dialect\, Shanghainese and Beijing dialect. There is currently no vehicle for writing poetry in these languages since Chinese orthography supports Mandarin only. Yang has been closely involved with a collective of Slovenian poets who\, despite the small population of their country\, support poetic production in nine Slovene dialects. He is currently working with Kelly Askew (U-M) and a formerly exiled Kenyan poet\, Abdilatif Abdalla\, on translating poetry composed in various dialects of Swahili into English and from English into dialect forms of Chinese. The idea is ultimately to produce a volume on ”˜dialect poetry’\, written in the shadows of dominant\, politically powerful\, languages (Mandarin and Standardized Swahili being but two examples).\n\nOrganized by the African Studies Center and co-sponsored by the Center for Chinese Studies\, the International Institute\, and the Confucius Institute at the University of Michigan.

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.

After serving in Europe\, Metcalf returned to Ann Arbor and finished his degree in 1950. Upon graduation\, he worked as an apprentice to George B. Brigham and began teaching Architecture at the University of Michigan. Metcalf began his own practice in 1953 and completed over 120 projects Ann Arbor and the Detroit Metro area. \nThis exhibition presents 13 domestic projects that span his six-decade-long career from 1953-2008\, highlighting his straightforward design aesthetic\, featuring many of his iconic flat-roofed houses. Each project selected exemplifies Metcalf’s mid-century modern architectural vocabulary that results in functional\, minimalist spaces for living.\n\nThis exhibition presents 13 domestic projects that span his six-decade-long career from 1953-2008\, highlighting his straightforward design aesthetic\, featuring many of his iconic flat-roofed houses. Each project selected exemplifies Metcalf’s mid-century modern architectural vocabulary that results in functional\, minimalist spaces for living.\n\nThree Michigan Architects: Part 2–Metcalf is the second in a series of three consecutive exhibitions\, with subsequent presentation of domestic work by George Brigham (July 19–October 12\, 2014). Part 1 of the series presented the work of David Osler (December 21\, 2013–March 30\, 2013). The series will culminate in Fall 2014 with a symposium\, as well as the publication of Three Michigan Architects: Osler\, Metcalf\, and Brigham–both of which will explore the importance of this circle of Ann Arbor-based architects\, situating their regional body of domestic work into the larger context of modern architecture in the U.S. that developed on the East Coast and West Coast from the 1930s–1980s.\n UID:16957-1199992@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/16957 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:exhibit,umma LOCATION:Museum of Art CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20140328T093241 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20140415T123000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Panel Discussion: Painting in the Age of Digital Saturation No-Touching Zone: An Exhibition by Chris Hyndman DESCRIPTION:In conjunction with the Chris Hyndman show\, No-Touching Zone\, we are thrilled to host an engaging round-table discussion with Chris Hyndman\, visiting artist and professor\, EMU\; Matthew Biro\, professor and chair of art history\, U-M\; Beverly Fishman\, artist-in-residence and head of painting\, Cranbrook Academy of Art\; Alison Gass\, deputy director and curator of contemporary art\, Broad Art Museum\; and Lance Winn\, artist and professor of art and head of the graduate program\, University of Delaware.

Dr. Muñoz is a former Unit chief at the International Agency for Research on Cancer in Lyon\, an Emeritus Scientist of the National Cancer Institute of Colombia\, and a member of the Society of Scholars of Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore.\n\nDr. Muñoz will speak on the topic of “Human papillomavirus in the etiology and prevention of genital cancers”.\n\nA reception will immediately follow the lecture in SPH I\, Community Room (Room 1680).\n\nSummary of Talk:\nThe molecular epidemiological studies that led to conclude that infection with certain types of human papillomavirus (HPV) is not only the main cause but also a necessary cause of cervical cancer and also contribute to the etiology of other anogenital cancers and cancer of the oropharynx will be reviewed\, as well as the implications of these findings in the great advances made in the prevention of HPV”associated diseases.\n\nBio:\nDr. Muñoz earned her Medical Degree and Board of Pathologist at the University of Valle in Cali\, Colombia. She served a Fellowship in Pathology and virology at the National Cancer Institute\, Bethesda\, Maryland\, and earned a Master’s Degree in Public Health and Cancer Epidemiology from The Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore\, Maryland. After completing her training she spent her 30 years career at the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) in Lyon\, France. Through successive promotions she reached the rank of Chief of the Unit of Field and Intervention Studies\, a position she held until the year 2002. She became then Emeritus professor of the National Cancer Institute of Colombia\, consultant to the IARC and the Catalan Institute of Oncology in Barcelona.\n\nShe has conducted epidemiological research on cancers linked to infectious agents\, which represent an important health problem in developing countries. She implemented various research projects in over 30 countries around the world. These have been instrumental in demonstrating the role of human papillomavirus (HPV) as the central and necessary cause of cervical cancer and a contributing factor in other cancers\, such oral cancer\; the causal role of hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis C virus in liver cancer\; and elucidating the role of Helicobacter pylori in gastric cancer. At the same time\, these various research projects provided her the opportunity of training local colleagues in Cancer Epidemiology. From her IARC unit she began to lead in the early1980s a massive effort that achieved two major goals: 1)\, demonstration that certain genotypes of HPV are unequivocally one the strongest cancer risk factors ever found. These findings have had important implications in primary prevention of cervical cancer by the use of prophylactic vaccines and on secondary prevention\, by the use of HPV assays in screening programs.2)\, she has played a catalytic role in the initiation of the first HBV vaccine trials to prevent liver cancer in The Gambia\, and later on the initiation and implementation of HPV vaccine trials to demonstrate their efficacy in the prevention of cervical cancer worldwide. She has authored over 380 scientific papers published in peer-reviewed journals and she serves on the editorial boards of seven international journals and on boards of several medical societies.\n\nDr. Muñoz has received various awards from her university and medical societies from Colombia\, she is member of Academy of Medicine of Colombia\, received the Distinguished Alumna Award of The Johns Hopkins University\, the membership of the Society of Scholars of The Johns Hopkins University\, the Distinguished Epidemiologist Award from three Epidemiology Societies of North America\, the Sir Richard Doll award from the International Epidemiological Association (IEA) in 2008. In 2008 she was also nominated jointly with Harald zur Hausen to the Nobel Prize of Medicine by the International Epidemiological Association for her pioneer work on HPV and cervical cancer. She received the 2009 Bruchbacher prize for Cancer Research from the Charles Rodolphe Brupbacher Foundation for Cancer Research in Zurich and the first Canada Gairdner Global Health award from the Gairdner Foundation. \n\nIn 2010 she was named “Chevalier de la Legion d’Honneur” by the French president\, the highest honour conferred by France. In 2011 she received the “Cruz de Boyaca” the highest honour conferred by Colombia\, her home country\, and was invited to deliver the prestigious “Cutter lecture on Preventive Medicine” at the Harvard School of Public Health. In Nov. 2012 she was invited to deliver the Geoffrey Howe Memorial Lecture at the School of Public Health of Columbia University in New York. In 2014 she has been invited to give the Thomas Francis\, Jr. Memorial Lecture at the School of Public Health of Michigan University.\n UID:17003-1200147@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/17003 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:dr. nubia munoz,francis,jr. memorial lecture,thomas francis LOCATION:Public Health II - Auditorium 1755 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20140218T154322 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20140415T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20140415T170000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Warren Herb Wagner Lecture in Plant Evolution\, Department of EEB DESCRIPTION:The niche plays a central role in ecological and evolutionary theory\, despite\, or perhaps because of\, many different definitions and applications. Two challenges in particular arise in efforts to cross spatial and temporal scales\, to link experimental and community-based niche studies with phylogenetic and macroevolutionary approaches. First\, the niche is often best defined at a community level\, contrasting species with their immediate neighbors and competitors\, but this approach is difficult to map onto phylogenetic studies for comparative studies examining niche evolution. And second\, we still grapple with the connection between the potential for adaptive evolution in populations and observations of stasis\, niche conservatism and related macroevolutionary measures. In this lecture\, I will explore these challenges\, illustrating the potential for the alpha-beta niche distinction to help resolve the first\, and sharing results of an experimental study of niche evolution in vernal pool annuals (Lasthenia)\, and implications for understanding the recent radiation of this clade.\n\nPlease join us for a pre-seminar reception from 3:15 - 4 p.m. in Room 2060 Kraus Natural Science Building.

This year's Open Stage Showcase performers are Darrin Breil and Lisa Ritchie. Darrin Breil says he was born to play music\, and after the purchase of his first acoustic guitar at age six there was no stopping this destiny. He would later describe a missing and longing feeling to be with a guitar again as his reason for seeking it out at such a young age. He was exposed to country music and classic rock early on\, and has been influenced by Bob Seger\, Motown\, guitarists like Elvis Presley’s Scotty Moore\, and the rhythmic stylings of Chuck Berry and Bo Diddley. Combining rhythmic roots\, pure emotion and lyrical poetry has created a sound that many who knew this well-traveled musician would simply call “Breilstyle.\"\n\nLisa Ritchie\, a recent graduate from the U-M\, says the majority of her time was split between two passions–God and music. In 2011\, she formed a band called Hush\, Love. A songwriter for 13 years\, she continually evolves in her style. “Some people know exactly what their style is and how to pursue it\, but I find mine to be constantly changing\, leading me to chase after a melody I just can’t quite write”¦yet.” Influences range from Shania Twain all the way to her current rekindled passion for punk rock. Her list of influences contains Death Cab for Cutie\, Yellow Card\, Coldplay\, and includes newer artists such as Milo Greene\, Roo Panes and Lord Huron. Lisa's songwriting has been shaped by the songs she never tires of. “'Title and Registration!' That is a song I will never be sick of listening to. So\, I think that’s my goal: to write a song you can listen to on repeat without getting tired of it. There’s some ”˜mystical’ element in songs like that\, they put feelings into words\,\" Lisa says.

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.

Born in 1923\, Metcalf is a native of Ohio. He began his education at the University of Michigan in 1941 but his studies were halted during World War II. After serving in Europe\, Metcalf returned to Ann Arbor and finished his degree in 1950. Upon graduation\, he worked as an apprentice to George B. Brigham and began teaching Architecture at the University of Michigan. Metcalf began his own practice in 1953 and completed over 120 projects Ann Arbor and the Detroit Metro area. \nThis exhibition presents 13 domestic projects that span his six-decade-long career from 1953-2008\, highlighting his straightforward design aesthetic\, featuring many of his iconic flat-roofed houses. Each project selected exemplifies Metcalf’s mid-century modern architectural vocabulary that results in functional\, minimalist spaces for living.\n\nThis exhibition presents 13 domestic projects that span his six-decade-long career from 1953-2008\, highlighting his straightforward design aesthetic\, featuring many of his iconic flat-roofed houses.

In fact\, some astronomers predict that stars more than 20 times the mass of our sun may only form in clusters\, alongside hundreds or thousands of other stars. Yet surveys of massive stars find that a quarter of them exist in isolation. Could these stars be forming all alone? Or are they being separated from their birth clusters? To answer these questions\, we took a complete census of isolated massive stars in one of our closest neighboring galaxies\, the Small Magellanic Cloud. The demographics of this \"field star\" population reveal key clues about their origin.\n\nThe Ralph B. Baldwin Prize in Astrophysics and Space Sciences is an award sponsored by a generous gift to the University by Dr. Ralph B. Baldwin. Applicants must show original and significant contributions to their field as measured in their scholarly publications.\nStudent applications are selected from the fields of Astronomy\, Atmospheric\, Oceanic\, and Space Science\; Chemistry\; Physics\; Geology\; and Mathematics as they pertain to space\, its bodies\, and relevant physical processes. The prize is awarded annually to a student who has received a University of Michigan Ph.D. during the previous year. A faculty committee comprised of representatives from the appropriate departments judges the packages submitted on the basis of the excellence of their research activities revealed in the student's thesis and publications during their career.\nThe 2014 Ralph Baldwin Prize is awarded to Dr. Joel Lamb\, who received his PhD in Astronomy & Astrophysics from U-M in 2012.

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.

Born in 1923\, Metcalf is a native of Ohio. He began his education at the University of Michigan in 1941 but his studies were halted during World War II. After serving in Europe\, Metcalf returned to Ann Arbor and finished his degree in 1950. Upon graduation\, he worked as an apprentice to George B. Brigham and began teaching Architecture at the University of Michigan. Metcalf began his own practice in 1953 and completed over 120 projects Ann Arbor and the Detroit Metro area. \nThis exhibition presents 13 domestic projects that span his six-decade-long career from 1953-2008\, highlighting his straightforward design aesthetic\, featuring many of his iconic flat-roofed houses. Each project selected exemplifies Metcalf’s mid-century modern architectural vocabulary that results in functional\, minimalist spaces for living.\n\nThis exhibition presents 13 domestic projects that span his six-decade-long career from 1953-2008\, highlighting his straightforward design aesthetic\, featuring many of his iconic flat-roofed houses.

This perceived tension between design and research is indicative of age-old anxieties within the architecture field to understand its nature as an \"applied art.\" Design can be a purely creative activity not unlike creative practices in music and art. In other cases\, design can be a purely problem solving activity\, not unlike research in engineering and industrial production.\n\nIn its fifth year\, University of Michigan Taubman College's Research Through Making (RTM) Program provides seed funding for faculty research\, worked on by faculty\, students and interdisciplinary experts.

Whilst the right of people to self-determination is enshrined in international law\, the membership and territorial boundaries delimiting the space over which this right can be exercised are almost always contested. Protracted migrations\, shifting frontiers resulting from the break-up of multinational states\, and the intermingling of nationalities across a single geographical space have often meant that one nation-building project could not be achieved without undermining another. Historical precedents as well as recent events in Crimea have given some credence to those who see minority nationalism as a fundamentally ethnic phenomenon\, essentially prone to subjugate internal minorities and hostile to immigration. This widely held view\, however\, is at odds with contemporary developments in Scotland and Catalonia\, where nationalists have increasingly couched their national claims claims in multicultural terms\, seeking to accommodate immigration-induced pluralism into their own imagined political community. In this lecture\, Jean-Thomas Arrighi compares the evolving relationship between nation-building and immigration in Scotland and Catalonia from a historical perspective and identifies the conditions under which nationalists came to embrace a predominantly territorial and multicultural conception of citizenship. He attributes this outcome to a combination of two factors\, namely nationalists’ vested interest in using migration-related policies and discourses as a means to enhance their internal and external legitimacy\, and contrasted dynamics of party competition at a sub-state level.\n\nJean-Thomas Arrighi is a visiting fellow at the Center for European Studies (CES) at the University of Michigan and a research fellow at the Robert Schuman Centre for Advanced Studies at the European University Institute (EUI). He earned his PhD and MRes in political and social sciences at EUI\, as well as an MA in contemporary European studies from the University of Bath. While in residency at the University of Michigan\, he has taught a course in the Department of Political Science entitled “Migrations and the Transformations of Citizenship in Europe.” His research interests lie at the crossroads of territorial politics\, comparative politics\, migrations\, and nationalism studies.\n\nSponsors: CES\, WCED UID:15899-1196484@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/15899 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:europe LOCATION:School of Social Work Building - 1636 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20140324T093933 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20140417T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20140417T170000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EEB Thursday Seminar Series DESCRIPTION:The modern day is often caricatured by vertebrate biologists and paleontologists as the ”˜Age of Mammals\,’ remote from the ”˜Age of Fishes’ of the Devonian Period more than 350 million years ago. This reinforces a common perception that living fishes\, which collectively constitute half of all living backboned animals\, have exceptionally deep evolutionary roots. However\, a substantial fraction of diversity in this other half of the vertebrate tree of life was generated on a timescale comparable to that in birds and mammals. Drawing on the clues locked in genomes\, skeletons\, and rocks\, I will explore the origins of diversity in fishes at phylogenetic scales ranging from individual specialized lineages to hyperdiverse radiations containing several thousand species. I will show how quantitative approaches to evolutionary questions in ”˜deep time’ highlight potential effects of major events in earth history on the assembly of the modern fauna\, and illustrate how cutting-edge techniques are providing us with an unprecedented view of diversity deep within the geological record.

Localizing Islam through Transnational Influences DESCRIPTION:Jessica Winegar is a sociocultural anthropologist whose work investigates how people articulate understandings of history and political-economic change through cultural production and consumption\, in particular through competing notions of culture and culturedness. She is primarily concerned with the multiple ways that culture projects create social hierarchies and modern subjects while frequently hiding the mechanisms of these processes\, thereby contributing to their durability. \n\nHer first book Creative Reckonings: The Politics of Art and Culture in Contemporary Egypt (Stanford University Press\, 2006) focused on these processes in the realm of the visual arts. It is an ethnographic study of the intense debates over cultural authenticity and artistic value that occur in a postcolonial society undergoing market liberalization. It examines how cultural elites reckon with the legacies of colonialism\, socialism\, and modernism in order to produce meaningful\, yet competing\, versions of national and elite visual culture in a context where “culture” itself is becoming increasingly globalized and commodified.

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.

Born in 1923\, Metcalf is a native of Ohio. He began his education at the University of Michigan in 1941 but his studies were halted during World War II. After serving in Europe\, Metcalf returned to Ann Arbor and finished his degree in 1950. Upon graduation\, he worked as an apprentice to George B. Brigham and began teaching Architecture at the University of Michigan. Metcalf began his own practice in 1953 and completed over 120 projects Ann Arbor and the Detroit Metro area. \nThis exhibition presents 13 domestic projects that span his six-decade-long career from 1953-2008\, highlighting his straightforward design aesthetic\, featuring many of his iconic flat-roofed houses. Each project selected exemplifies Metcalf’s mid-century modern architectural vocabulary that results in functional\, minimalist spaces for living.\n\nThis exhibition presents 13 domestic projects that span his six-decade-long career from 1953-2008\, highlighting his straightforward design aesthetic\, featuring many of his iconic flat-roofed houses. Each project selected exemplifies Metcalf’s mid-century modern architectural vocabulary that results in functional\, minimalist spaces for living.\n\nThree Michigan Architects: Part 2–Metcalf is the second in a series of three consecutive exhibitions\, with subsequent presentation of domestic work by George Brigham (July 19–October 12\, 2014). Part 1 of the series presented the work of David Osler (December 21\, 2013–March 30\, 2013). The series will culminate in Fall 2014 with a symposium\, as well as the publication of Three Michigan Architects: Osler\, Metcalf\, and Brigham–both of which will explore the importance of this circle of Ann Arbor-based architects\, situating their regional body of domestic work into the larger context of modern architecture in the U.S. that developed on the East Coast and West Coast from the 1930s–1980s.\n UID:16957-1199995@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/16957 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:exhibit,umma LOCATION:Museum of Art CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20140408T114002 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20140418T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20140418T140000 SUMMARY:Other:Senior Send-off Tailgate DESCRIPTION:Calling all 2014 graduating seniors!

A self-taught photographer\, he started out with a 35mm camera\, heavy tripod\, either a 24 or 105 mm lens\, and a slow slide film (ASA 50). He is now climbing the digital ladder! Scott’s photography is the result of 20+ years of \"lots of patience\, recognizing the right place at the right time\, but not necessarily for the intended image”¦\" He shoots photographs around Leelanau County\, Michigan and stitches multiple images together to create vistas beyond what a single image can show.

Born in 1923\, Metcalf is a native of Ohio. He began his education at the University of Michigan in 1941 but his studies were halted during World War II. After serving in Europe\, Metcalf returned to Ann Arbor and finished his degree in 1950. Upon graduation\, he worked as an apprentice to George B. Brigham and began teaching Architecture at the University of Michigan. Metcalf began his own practice in 1953 and completed over 120 projects Ann Arbor and the Detroit Metro area. \nThis exhibition presents 13 domestic projects that span his six-decade-long career from 1953-2008\, highlighting his straightforward design aesthetic\, featuring many of his iconic flat-roofed houses. Each project selected exemplifies Metcalf’s mid-century modern architectural vocabulary that results in functional\, minimalist spaces for living.\n\nThis exhibition presents 13 domestic projects that span his six-decade-long career from 1953-2008\, highlighting his straightforward design aesthetic\, featuring many of his iconic flat-roofed houses. Each project selected exemplifies Metcalf’s mid-century modern architectural vocabulary that results in functional\, minimalist spaces for living.\n\nThree Michigan Architects: Part 2–Metcalf is the second in a series of three consecutive exhibitions\, with subsequent presentation of domestic work by George Brigham (July 19–October 12\, 2014). Part 1 of the series presented the work of David Osler (December 21\, 2013–March 30\, 2013). The series will culminate in Fall 2014 with a symposium\, as well as the publication of Three Michigan Architects: Osler\, Metcalf\, and Brigham–both of which will explore the importance of this circle of Ann Arbor-based architects\, situating their regional body of domestic work into the larger context of modern architecture in the U.S. that developed on the East Coast and West Coast from the 1930s–1980s.\n UID:16957-1199996@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/16957 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:exhibit,umma LOCATION:Museum of Art CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20140419T000007 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20140419T133000 SUMMARY:Performance:Opera Scenes Workshop DESCRIPTION:Nuovo Baròcco and Falstaff.

Formed in late 2010\, the Ann Arbor outfit has been traveling the country\, spreading melodies\, harmonies\, and foot-stomping beats everywhere they go. Featuring resonator guitar\, fiddle\, mandolin\, banjo\, upright bass\, and washboard\, each show is a little different--you never know if you might be transported to a 1930s jazz club or the distant realm of bluegrass psychedelia. The Appleseed Collective can currently be found traversing the country in a big ol’ van\, celebrating the release of their new album\, Young Love. The Appleseed Collective has been getting attention from as far away as the UK\, and their 2014 Ann Arbor Folk Festival appearance as well as their showcase at the International Folk Alliance Conference in February just put them on the musical radar of a whole lot of people.
