SUMMARY:Exhibition:Symposium: Ambiguous Territory: Architecture\, Landscape\, and the Postnatural
DESCRIPTION:Free and open to the public\nAmbiguous Territory: Architecture\, Landscape\, and the Postnatural is a symposium and concurrent exhibition that situates contemporary discourses and practices of architecture and landscape within the context of the Postnatural\; the era of climate change\, the Anthropocene\, and altered ecologies. The symposium asks: In a time when humans have been fundamentally displaced from their presumed place of privilege\, philosophically as well as experientially\, should the disciplines of architecture and landscape architecture consider displacing themselves as well\, in order to establish new affiliations and avail new ways to approach contemporary questions of design in relation to the environment?\nBy bringing designers and scholars from these fields together the symposium and exhibition will highlight projects and ideas that are engaged with these issues from a variety of perspectives\, ranging from scale and experience to questions of matter. Participants will present research and work that use tactics of mediation to understand\, imagine\, interrupt\, and invent artifacts that exist at the large spatial and slow temporal scale of the Anthropocene.\nAmbiguous Territory will present design ideas and proposals from architects\, artists\, and landscape architects whose work challenges their disciplinary boundaries and long-held anthropocentric orientation and redefines the relationship between built and natural environments in an era of ecological anxiety.\nChairs:       \nKathy Velikov\, Associate Professor at the University of Michigan and principal of RVTR\nCathryn Dwyre\, Visiting Associate Professor at Pratt institute School of Architecture and partner at pneumastudio\nChris Perry\, Associate Professor at Rensselaer Architecture and partner at pneumastudio\nDavid Salomon\, Assistant Professor of Art History at Ithaca College.\nKeynotes:\nLiam Young\, urbanist\, designer and futurist\; founder of the futures think tank Tomorrows Thoughts Today (tomorrowsthoughtstoday.com)\; the ‘Unknown Fields Division’ (unknownfieldsdivision.com) at the Architectural Association in London\, and the ‘Fiction and Entertainment’ program at SciArc\nDavid Gissen\, author\, historian\, and Professor of Architecture and Visual and Critical Studies at the California College of the Arts and co-director of the Experimental History Project (http://davidgissen.org/)\nFor a full list of speakers and bios\, please visit the Ambiguous Territory symposium web page. \nAmbiguous Territory Symposium Schedule\nAll events in Taubman College Commons unless otherwise noted\nThursday October 5th\n5:00pm\nAmbiguous Territory Exhibition Reception\n(Taubman College Gallery)\n6:00pm\nKeynote Lecture: Liam Young\n(Art + Architecture Auditorium)\n \nFriday October 6th (all events occuring in The Commons)\n9:00am\nCoffee\n9:30am\nWelcome: Dean Jonathan Massey\nIntroductory Remarks: Associate Dean of Research and Creative Practice Geoffrey Thün\nSymposium Introduction: Kathy Velikov\n10:00am\nAtmospheric Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: Kathy Velikov\nSpeaker 1: Christopher Hight\nSpeaker 2: Lydia Kallipoliti\nSpeaker 3: Sean Lally\nRespondent: Meredith Miller\nRoundtable Discussion\n12:00pm\nLunch Break (lunch not provided)\n1:00pm\nBiologic Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: David Salomon\nSpeaker 1: Jennifer Peeples\nSpeaker 2: Linsdey french\nSpeaker 3: Ricardo de Ostos\nRespondent: Ellie Abrons\nRoundtable Discussion\n3:00pm\nCoffee Break\n3:30pm\nGeologic Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: Cathryn Dwyre and Chris Perry\nSpeaker 1: Alessandra Ponte\nSpeaker 2: Bradley Cantrell\nSpeaker 3: Rania Ghosn and El Hadi Jazairy\nRespondent: Mark Lindquist\nRoundtable Discussion\n5:30pm\nBreak\n6:00pm\nKeynote Lecture: David Gissen\nAmbiguous Territory Exhibition \nSeptember 27th – October 18th 2017\nUniversity of Michigan Taubman College Gallery\nDecember 2018 – January 2019\nPratt Manhattan Gallery\, New York

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Constructing Gender
DESCRIPTION:Ask U-M students\, alumni\, or fans what symbolizes the University of Michigan\, and you’ll likely hear the Big House\, the Diag\, along with the Michigan Union and the Michigan League. Since they officially opened in 1919 and 1929\, respectively\, the Union and League have been destinations for generations of Wolverines yet few know the rich history of the buildings’ origins or about the architects who brought them both to life: brothers and U-M alums Irving K. and Allen Pond.\n\nThe exhibition\, organized in celebration of the University of Michigan’s bicentennial in 2017\, illuminates the architecture and bustling student life of these iconic buildings using original drawings\, renderings\, photographs\, color studies\, and even dance cards from the Bentley Historical Library\, which serves as the University of Michigan archives. These fascinating documents reveal how the buildings were conceived\, constructed\, and first occupied by students and alumni. Guest curated by Nancy Bartlett of the Bentley Historical Library\, the exhibition reveals how the Ponds meticulously conceived and constructed the two clubs—one for men\, one for women—by weaving ideas about gender and society into the very fabric of the buildings themselves.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run
DESCRIPTION:In 2013\, artist Ernestine Ruben (BSDEs ’53) photographed the once-famed industrial complex Willow Run in Washtenaw County\, Michigan. Designed by her grandfather\, Detroit architect Albert Kahn\, for the Ford Motor Company\, Willow Run was an exemplar of American defense manufacturing because of its efficient mass-production of B-24 Liberators during World War II.\n\nFor this exhibition\, Ruben overlaid interior views of the now-dormant factory with imagined glimpses into her body’s interior landscape. The resulting compositions seem to breathe energy and light into the stagnant and cavernous spaces of Willow Run and suggest a longing for a productive existence undeterred by mortality for both Willow Run and the artist. Her grandfather’s role in the history of the site underscores Ruben’s personal connection.\n\nThe exhibition presents Ruben’s photographs of Willow Run in UMMA’s Photography Gallery and an original film—co-created by Ruben and video artist Seth Bernstein and featuring an original score by award-winning composer Stephen Hartke—in the Museum’s Forum.\n\nLead support for Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run: Mobilizing Memory is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.\n\n\n\nLead support for Victors for the Arts: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the President\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Protecting Wisdom: Tibetan Book Covers from the MacLean Collection
DESCRIPTION:Protecting Wisdom: Tibetan Book Covers from the MacLean Collection is the first major exhibition to examine the subject of Tibetan book covers. For Tibetan Buddhists\, books are a divine presence in which the Buddha lives and reveals himself\, and they are venerated and handled with the utmost respect. The exhibition features 33 book covers dating from the eleventh to the eighteenth century that represent the glorious iconographic array and non-figural decoration typical of these sacred items. The majority of covers in the exhibition are Tibetan Buddhist\, but the exhibition also includes a rare Bon-religion cover and two covers from Mongolia\, as well as an important pair of covers produced circa 1411 for the Chinese Ming emperor Yongle. Protecting Wisdom presents a stunning visual display that illuminates a virtually unknown type of art\, one that will charm and intrigue both those familiar and unfamiliar with Tibetan art.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Victors for Art: Michigan's Alumni Collectors–Part I: Figuration
DESCRIPTION:Commemorating the University of Michigan’s 2017 Bicentennial\, Victors for Art: Michigan’s Alumni Collectors celebrates the deep impact of Michigan alumni in the global art world. This two-part exhibition (Part I: Figuration followed by Part II: Abstraction on view July 1– October 29) presents works collected by a diverse group of alumni that represent the breadth of the University and over seventy years of graduating classes. The works themselves are equally diverse\, ranging from ancient sculptures to contemporary multimedia works. Part I: Figuration features works by Henri Matisse\, Elizabeth Louise Vigée Le Brun\, Mark Tansey\, and Mickalene Thomas\, among others\, and allows visitors to explore the variety of artistic responses and purposes encompassed by the term “figuration”. It also offers an unprecedented opportunity to view art that may have never been publicly displayed otherwise—and most certainly\, not all together. For visitors\, and especially for future Michigan alumni\, Victors for Art illuminates the shared passion for art fostered by the Michigan experience.\n\nThis exhibition was organized by Joseph Rosa\, Guest Curator\, in collaboration with Laura De Becker\, Helmut & Candis Stern Associate Curator of African Art\, Jennifer Friess\, Assistant Curator of Photography\, Lehti Mairike Keelman\, Assistant Curator of Western Art\, and Natsu Oyobe\, Curator of Asian Art.\n\nLead support for Victors for the Arts: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the President\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Reading and Conversation. “Family History of Fear: A Memoir”
DESCRIPTION:Every family has its own history. Many families carry a tragic past. Like the author’s mother\, many Poles did not tell their children a complete story of their wartime experiences. Agata Tuszyńska was nineteen years old when her mother told her that she was Jewish—and began to tell her stories of the family’s secret past in Poland. \n    \nIn \"Family History of Fear\,\" Tuszyńska investigates her past and writes of her journey to uncover her family’s history during World War II—of her mother\, entering the Warsaw Ghetto at age eight\, escaping just before the fateful uprising\, and then living “hidden on the other side.” She writes of her relatives and their mysterious pasts\, as she tries to make sense of the hatred of Jews in her country. \n    \nAgata Tuszyńska is an award winning journalist\, scholar\, and internationally renowned author. Her latest works include \"Vera Gran\" (Wydawnictwo Literackie\, 2010)\, \"The Fiancée of Bruno Schulz\,\" and \"A Family History of Fear\,\" released in English in Spring 2016 by Knopf. \n    \nA book signing will follow the reading. Books will be available for purchase at the event through Literati Bookstore.

SUMMARY:Performance:Son Volt
DESCRIPTION:Just now pushing 50\, Jay Farrar\, the creative force behind Son Volt\, is still not as old as his voice. Not nearly. His singing voice\, an ageless gift which sounds something like old timber looks\, like the unpainted walls framing Walker Evans' best portraits from Let Us Now Praise Famous Men: simple\, durable\, weathered and grooved and unplanned. The new Son Volt album\, \"Notes of Blue\,\" will be the twentieth album—including a couple live releases and two movie soundtracks—to which Jay has lent his voice and songwriting. \"Notes of Blue\" is not the blues of appropriation\, nor of beer commercials\, nor especially of the W.C. Handy awards. It is the broader blues of the folk process\, where they have always lived. In Jay's words\, “For years I’ve been drawn to the passion\, common struggle and possibility for redemption that’s always been a part of the blues. Everyone has to pay the rent and get along with their significant others\, so many of the themes are universal. For me\, the blues fills that void that's there for religion\, really. That's the place I turn to be lifted up.” This is quintessential Son Volt. Tough\, solitary\, unflinching. \"There's always a threat of darkness on the horizon\,” Jay says. “There's also a path to a better way inherent in the blues.”

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Banner Moments: The National Anthem in American Life
DESCRIPTION:The new Ford Presidential Library lobby exhibit\, curated by University of Michigan musicologist Mark Clague\, illustrates through interpretive panels\, historical documents and photographs\, the cultural 200-year history of “The Star-Spangled Banner” (1814–2014). The tale that emerges demonstrates the power of music and poetry to spark the social imagination and thus create a sense of shared community.\n\nInspired by the successful defense of Baltimore\, Maryland from British attack in September 1814\, lawyer and amateur poet Francis Scott Key penned his now famous lyric. Rather than extraordinary\, Key’s creative impulse was typical of early America’s broadside ballad tradition in which new words were written to fit well known tunes. The result\, however\, was far from everyday—Key could not have predicted that his song would survive the moment\, yet become his nation’s singular anthem.\n\nFollow the “The Star-Spangled Banner” from the moments leading up to September 14\, 1814 through the present day and explore the social history of our national song.\nMarch 2017 to September 2017 \n\nMonday - Friday. 8:45 am - 4:45 pm\nClosed all Federal holidays.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Another Country
DESCRIPTION:The scenes in Another Country emerge from daily images of conflict and uprising. Discarded shoes\, tarps and handmade signs that mark the post-industrial landscape become part roadside memorial and part doomsday prophecy. These temporary sculptures - set against the backdrop of environmental decline - evoke a cautionary tale of hazmat crews and oil soaked shorelines. \n\nIf there is a place for both apathy and active resistance in the way forward to a better future\, Another Country carries the tension that’s in-between. Inspired by the visual resistance of liberation parties\, past and present\, it urges us to remember why we fight.\n\nShanna Merola is an artist\, activist\, and documentary photographer. Working for civil rights attorneys\, she photographs first amendment activity at protests and facilitates workshops on best practices during police encounters. Over the past five years she has been a human rights observer for social justice movements across the country - from the deeply embattled struggle over water rights in Detroit and Flint\, Michigan - to the frontlines of uprisings in Ferguson\, MO and Standing Rock\, ND. Her collages and constructed landscapes are informed by these rallies - from direct actions against fracking companies to the privatization of water both globally and locally. She is currently working on a collaborative production of Know Your Rights Theatre\, inspired by the politically radical puppet troupes of the 1960’s.\n\nMerola received an MFA in Photography from Cranbrook Academy of Art and a BFA in Photo and Film from Virginia Commonwealth University. She lives and works in Detroit\, Michigan.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Here and There
DESCRIPTION:\"Here and There\"  looks at the problems of extreme poverty\, and includes artist Tracey Snelling's signature piece \"One Thousand Shacks.\" New works--created on campus during her three-week residency--will examine these issues in the US\, how they relate to location and\, at times\, the disenfranchisement of large groups of people for the sake of big business\, political clout\, and power. \n\nCurator's Statement:\n\nTo meet artist Tracey Snelling evokes the sensation of a strong willed breeze determined to open a backyard door. \n\nAs an artist and person\, she is down to earth\, direct\, contemporary\, and moving through it all with volition. \n\nSnelling’s artistic practice originally focused on photography as a medium\, but soon evolved to include her construction of sculptures based upon cities and towns\, strip malls and urban housing. \n\nShe refers to her three dimensional work as sculptural rather than diorama or model making because she isn’t particularly interested in the exact rendering of location\, or the contextualization of place. Instead\, she taps into the energy of community and its humanness—restless\, frenetic\, din\, a choir\, extending beyond the confines of walls. \n\nSnelling’s representations are neither judgmental nor opportunistic. They unaffectedly and objectively offer a multidimensional sketch of a place in time\, how we occupy space. \n\nHer signature piece \"One Thousand Shacks\" (included in this exhibition along with new work created during her her residency here) pushes up against the challenges of economic inequalities\, racial biases\, and imposed class divisions that often limit the options available to so many people. Concurrently\, the installation embraces our everyday existence expressed through Snelling’s exuberant palette\, bold graphics\, video and neon. \n\nConceptually\, Snelling’s stacking method first creates an exalted “big picture” with a myriad of colors\, image\, text\, sound and light. The counterpoint in scale soon immerses the viewer into each small world. With this shift\, the onlooker becomes the active participant\, the occupant in situ\, adding the trappings of their own experiences to each tableau. It is this shift that forces the viewer into a new way of seeing from varying perspectives.\n\nOn the one hand\, the artist’s sculptures allude to our desire for refuge\, a private domain that allows us to be ourselves. On the other\, the overall composition reaffirms it is imperative that we co-exist with one another respectfully\, forge relationships\, understanding our marked differences. It is diversity—the unique and often disparate combination of things\, the cacophony of it all\, that activates communities and public space.\n\nSnelling’s constructions literally build a way out\, one on top of another\, charged with the undercurrent of the way we live. They emphasize our universal longing to find a place called home\, and be accepted\, built on the foundation of one and of many. \n–Amanda Krugliak\, Arts Curator\, Institute for the Humanities\n\nAbout Tracey Snelling:\nThrough the use of sculpture\, photography\, video\, and large-scale installation\, Tracey Snelling gives her impression of a place\, its people and their experience. Often\, the cinematic image stands in for real life as it plays out behind windows in the buildings\, sometimes creating a sense of mystery\, other times stressing the mundane. Snelling’s work derives from voyeurism\, film noir\, and geographical and architectural location. Within this idea of location\, themes develop that transport observation into the realm of storytelling\, with reality and sociological study being the focus. Snelling had exhibited in international galleries\, museums and institutions\, including the The Royal Museum of Fine Arts\, Belgium\; Palazzo Reale\, Milan\; Museum of Arts and Design\, New York\; Kunstmuseen Krefeld Germany\; El Museo de Arte de Banco de la Republica\, Bogota\; the Stenersen Museet\, Oslo\, and the Sundance Film Festival. Her short films have screened at the San Francisco International Film Festival\, the Thessaloniki International Film Festival\, Circuito Off in Venice\, Italy\, and the Arquiteturas Film Festival Lisboa in Portugal. She also received a 2015 Joan Mitchell Painters and Sculptors Grant. Snelling lives and works in Oakland\, California and Berlin\, Germany.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Symposium: Ambiguous Territory: Architecture\, Landscape\, and the Postnatural
DESCRIPTION:Free and open to the public\nAmbiguous Territory: Architecture\, Landscape\, and the Postnatural is a symposium and concurrent exhibition that situates contemporary discourses and practices of architecture and landscape within the context of the Postnatural\; the era of climate change\, the Anthropocene\, and altered ecologies. The symposium asks: In a time when humans have been fundamentally displaced from their presumed place of privilege\, philosophically as well as experientially\, should the disciplines of architecture and landscape architecture consider displacing themselves as well\, in order to establish new affiliations and avail new ways to approach contemporary questions of design in relation to the environment?\nBy bringing designers and scholars from these fields together the symposium and exhibition will highlight projects and ideas that are engaged with these issues from a variety of perspectives\, ranging from scale and experience to questions of matter. Participants will present research and work that use tactics of mediation to understand\, imagine\, interrupt\, and invent artifacts that exist at the large spatial and slow temporal scale of the Anthropocene.\nAmbiguous Territory will present design ideas and proposals from architects\, artists\, and landscape architects whose work challenges their disciplinary boundaries and long-held anthropocentric orientation and redefines the relationship between built and natural environments in an era of ecological anxiety.\nChairs:       \nKathy Velikov\, Associate Professor at the University of Michigan and principal of RVTR\nCathryn Dwyre\, Visiting Associate Professor at Pratt institute School of Architecture and partner at pneumastudio\nChris Perry\, Associate Professor at Rensselaer Architecture and partner at pneumastudio\nDavid Salomon\, Assistant Professor of Art History at Ithaca College.\nKeynotes:\nLiam Young\, urbanist\, designer and futurist\; founder of the futures think tank Tomorrows Thoughts Today (tomorrowsthoughtstoday.com)\; the ‘Unknown Fields Division’ (unknownfieldsdivision.com) at the Architectural Association in London\, and the ‘Fiction and Entertainment’ program at SciArc\nDavid Gissen\, author\, historian\, and Professor of Architecture and Visual and Critical Studies at the California College of the Arts and co-director of the Experimental History Project (http://davidgissen.org/)\nFor a full list of speakers and bios\, please visit the Ambiguous Territory symposium web page. \nAmbiguous Territory Symposium Schedule\nAll events in Taubman College Commons unless otherwise noted\nThursday October 5th\n5:00pm\nAmbiguous Territory Exhibition Reception\n(Taubman College Gallery)\n6:00pm\nKeynote Lecture: Liam Young\n(Art + Architecture Auditorium)\n \nFriday October 6th (all events occuring in The Commons)\n9:00am\nCoffee\n9:30am\nWelcome: Dean Jonathan Massey\nIntroductory Remarks: Associate Dean of Research and Creative Practice Geoffrey Thün\nSymposium Introduction: Kathy Velikov\n10:00am\nAtmospheric Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: Kathy Velikov\nSpeaker 1: Christopher Hight\nSpeaker 2: Lydia Kallipoliti\nSpeaker 3: Sean Lally\nRespondent: Meredith Miller\nRoundtable Discussion\n12:00pm\nLunch Break (lunch not provided)\n1:00pm\nBiologic Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: David Salomon\nSpeaker 1: Jennifer Peeples\nSpeaker 2: Linsdey french\nSpeaker 3: Ricardo de Ostos\nRespondent: Ellie Abrons\nRoundtable Discussion\n3:00pm\nCoffee Break\n3:30pm\nGeologic Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: Cathryn Dwyre and Chris Perry\nSpeaker 1: Alessandra Ponte\nSpeaker 2: Bradley Cantrell\nSpeaker 3: Rania Ghosn and El Hadi Jazairy\nRespondent: Mark Lindquist\nRoundtable Discussion\n5:30pm\nBreak\n6:00pm\nKeynote Lecture: David Gissen\nAmbiguous Territory Exhibition \nSeptember 27th – October 18th 2017\nUniversity of Michigan Taubman College Gallery\nDecember 2018 – January 2019\nPratt Manhattan Gallery\, New York

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Chicana Fotos: Nancy De Los Santos
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition Dates: Friday\, February 17 - April 14\, 2017\nOpening Reception: Friday\, February 17\, 2017 from 4 - 7 pm\, featuring a performance by Ballet Folklórico De Detroit at 6 pm.\nGallery Talk by Nancy De Los Santos and exhibition curator Maria Cotera: Friday\, February 17\, 2017 at 12 pm\, Walter P. Reuther Library Woodcock Conference Room\nWalter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University\n5401 Cass Ave\, Detroit\, MI 48202\n\nBorn and raised in Chicago by Mexican-American parents\, Nancy De Los Santos is an accomplished filmmaker and proud “Chicana from Chicago” who has dedicated her life and career to rewriting and redefining the image of Latina/os in the mainstream media. Among her most celebrated works are as Co-Writer and Co-Producer of The Bronze Screen: 100 Years of the Latin Image in Hollywood Cinema\, with Susan Racho and Alberto Dominguez\, and as Associate Producer on the feature film Selena.\n\nIn Chicana Fotos\, an exhibit of evocative photographs taken in the 1970s\, we meet a very different Nancy: a woman armed with a camera\, capturing historic events in the struggles for social justice of the time. Nancy’s photographs of Chicano Movement marches and rallies\, farmworker mobilizations in Chicago and Texas\, and Latina organizing in the Midwest and internationally offer a priceless documentary view of Latina/o politics in the 1970s. Her more intimate pictures of everyday Latina/o life capture what it was like to live through a period of radical social transformation. The exhibit includes rare photographs of UFW organizing activities in Chicago\, the Texas Farmworker Pilgrimage of 1977\, and the first ever International Women’s Year Conference in Mexico City in 1975. These images are supplemented by never before exhibited documents from the Walter P. Reuther UFW Collection.\n\nChicana Fotos was curated by University of Michigan professor Maria Cotera (with assistance from Pau Nava) and designed by students and faculty of the UM Stamps School of Art & Design. Stamps School faculty Hannah Smotrich and Katie Rubin co-taught the collaborative\, interdisciplinary Exhibition Design class with students Ian Crowley\, Rachel Dawson\, Emilie Farrugia\, Kelsi Franzino\, Andrew Han\, Jack Hyland\, Maggie Lemak\, Megan Lewin-Smith\, Katie Mongoven\, Olivia Moore\, Pau Nava\, and Sarah Wolf.\n\nChicana Fotos is a collaboration between the El Museo del Norte\, the Chicana por mi Raza Digital Archive\, the Stamps School of Art & Design and the Walter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University.\n\nThe Walter P. Reuther Library of Labor and Urban Affairs at Wayne State University is the largest labor archive in North America. In addition to internationally significant collections on the history of the North American labor movement\, the Reuther Library holds the official records of Wayne State University\, as well as extensive records documenting urban affairs\, civic life\, civil rights\, ethnic and religious organizations\, and community development across Southeast Michigan.\n\nChicana Fotos was made possible through the generous financial support of the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative and the Stamps School of Art & Design. Gallery talk sponsored by the Center for Latina/o and Latin American Studies\, Wayne State University\, and the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Constructing Gender
DESCRIPTION:Ask U-M students\, alumni\, or fans what symbolizes the University of Michigan\, and you’ll likely hear the Big House\, the Diag\, along with the Michigan Union and the Michigan League. Since they officially opened in 1919 and 1929\, respectively\, the Union and League have been destinations for generations of Wolverines yet few know the rich history of the buildings’ origins or about the architects who brought them both to life: brothers and U-M alums Irving K. and Allen Pond.\n\nThe exhibition\, organized in celebration of the University of Michigan’s bicentennial in 2017\, illuminates the architecture and bustling student life of these iconic buildings using original drawings\, renderings\, photographs\, color studies\, and even dance cards from the Bentley Historical Library\, which serves as the University of Michigan archives. These fascinating documents reveal how the buildings were conceived\, constructed\, and first occupied by students and alumni. Guest curated by Nancy Bartlett of the Bentley Historical Library\, the exhibition reveals how the Ponds meticulously conceived and constructed the two clubs—one for men\, one for women—by weaving ideas about gender and society into the very fabric of the buildings themselves.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run
DESCRIPTION:In 2013\, artist Ernestine Ruben (BSDEs ’53) photographed the once-famed industrial complex Willow Run in Washtenaw County\, Michigan. Designed by her grandfather\, Detroit architect Albert Kahn\, for the Ford Motor Company\, Willow Run was an exemplar of American defense manufacturing because of its efficient mass-production of B-24 Liberators during World War II.\n\nFor this exhibition\, Ruben overlaid interior views of the now-dormant factory with imagined glimpses into her body’s interior landscape. The resulting compositions seem to breathe energy and light into the stagnant and cavernous spaces of Willow Run and suggest a longing for a productive existence undeterred by mortality for both Willow Run and the artist. Her grandfather’s role in the history of the site underscores Ruben’s personal connection.\n\nThe exhibition presents Ruben’s photographs of Willow Run in UMMA’s Photography Gallery and an original film—co-created by Ruben and video artist Seth Bernstein and featuring an original score by award-winning composer Stephen Hartke—in the Museum’s Forum.\n\nLead support for Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run: Mobilizing Memory is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the Herbert W. and Susan L.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:GOIN’ NORTH: BLACK DETROIT  AND THE  GREAT MIGRATION\,  1910-1930
DESCRIPTION:Summary: \nExhibit of photographs and documents produced by the Michigan Historical Collections in Commemoration of Martin Luther King\, Jr. Day at the University of Michigan\, published 1991.\nBLACK DETROIT AND THE GREAT MIGRATION\n\nSince Norf is up\,\nAn’ Souf is down\,\nAn’ Hebben is up\,\nI’m upward boun’.*\nThey came to Detroit by the thousands from Georgia\, Alabama\, Tennessee\, South Caroline and they stayed. They were part of what historians characterize as a watershed in African American History-the Great Migration. From 1910 to 1930\, hundreds of thousands of Blacks headed North\, leaving the South because of economic hardship\, poor educational opportunities\, and enticed by the lure of better jobs in northern industries and more freedom. Cites in the industrial Northeast and Midwest experienced astounding increases in their Black populations\, but few more so that Detroit\, its institutions and its cultures\, took shape and developed. The problems encountered by the migrants in the form of discrimination and racial animosity were problems with which the city would grapple throughout the decades to follow.\n\nThis exhibit focused on the two major concerns of the migrants\, housing and jobs\, and on the attempts made by various organizations in adjusting to life in Detroit. It is primarily compiled from the holding s of the University of Michigan’s Bentley Historical Library\, particularly the rich collection of the Detroit Urban League. It is also drawn from the Collections of the Detroit Public Library\, the Walter Reuther Collection of the Detroit Public Library\, the Walter Reuther Collection of Labor History and Urban Affairs (Wayne State University)\, the Collections of the Henry Ford Museum and Greenfield Village\, the Detroit News\, and tge Second Baptist Church of Detroit\, Michigan. The exhibit was prepared by Christine Weideman and Karen Jania\, staff members of the Bentley Historical Library.\n\n*From the poem\, “Northboun’” by Lucy Ariel Williams\, printed in Opportunity “: a Journal of Negro Life\, June 1926. The journal was a publication of the National Urban League.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LRCCS Lecture | History\, Law\, and Censorship in Digital China
DESCRIPTION:Digitization has radically increased the accessibility of many forms of data and has opened up exciting new avenues of scholarly research. Censorship seldom ranks highly among the ethical and methodological considerations prompted by this growing abundance.  But for scholars working on contemporary China\, particularly its legal system\, censorship remains a cardinal problem.\n\nThis talk strikes a cautionary note about the risks of our deepening digital dependence.  Combining both traditional close reading and computational tools\, the talk will document and analyze the omission of hundreds of articles from leading Chinese online academic journal databases\, offering a case study on how the digital turn has enabled China to quietly export its domestic censorship regime abroad\, with Orwellian ramifications for how scholars around the globe comprehend its past\, present\, and future.\n\nDr. Tiffert is the LRCCS Distinguished Postdoctoral Fellow in Residence and teaches in the History and the Asian Languages and Cultures departments at the University of Michigan.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Victors for Art: Michigan's Alumni Collectors–Part I: Figuration
DESCRIPTION:Commemorating the University of Michigan’s 2017 Bicentennial\, Victors for Art: Michigan’s Alumni Collectors celebrates the deep impact of Michigan alumni in the global art world. This two-part exhibition (Part I: Figuration followed by Part II: Abstraction on view July 1– October 29) presents works collected by a diverse group of alumni that represent the breadth of the University and over seventy years of graduating classes. The works themselves are equally diverse\, ranging from ancient sculptures to contemporary multimedia works. Part I: Figuration features works by Henri Matisse\, Elizabeth Louise Vigée Le Brun\, Mark Tansey\, and Mickalene Thomas\, among others\, and allows visitors to explore the variety of artistic responses and purposes encompassed by the term “figuration”. It also offers an unprecedented opportunity to view art that may have never been publicly displayed otherwise—and most certainly\, not all together. For visitors\, and especially for future Michigan alumni\, Victors for Art illuminates the shared passion for art fostered by the Michigan experience.\n\nThis exhibition was organized by Joseph Rosa\, Guest Curator\, in collaboration with Laura De Becker\, Helmut & Candis Stern Associate Curator of African Art\, Jennifer Friess\, Assistant Curator of Photography\, Lehti Mairike Keelman\, Assistant Curator of Western Art\, and Natsu Oyobe\, Curator of Asian Art.\n\nLead support for Victors for the Arts: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the President\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition-on-View\, \"Persistent Pasts: The Bicentennial Campus as Archive\"
DESCRIPTION:Combining historical research and analysis from the students in Sarah Rovang’s “The Curated Campus” graduate seminar and the design output of Steven Mankouche’s “What If” Options Studio\, Persistent Pasts reflects on the University of Michigan’s campus as a repository of memory. As UM celebrates its Bicentennial year\, this exhibition asks how past traditions\, tensions\, and technologies have left material or cultural traces on campus space today. By laying bare rarely examined aspects of the historical university alongside radical designs for an unrealized present\, Persistent Pasts asks us to question entrenched conceptions of what UM should and could be\, architecturally and institutionally. This exhibition is supported in part by a Bicentennial Activity Grant\, co-authored by Claire Zimmerman and Sarah Rovang. \n\nThis exhibition will be on view in the Taubman College Gallery through May 19. The college gallery is open Monday - Friday\, 9am - 5pm. \n\nThere will be an presentation and panel on Friday\, April 7 at 6:00pm in the Art & Architecture Auditorium\, followed by a reception in the college gallery.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Group\, Lie and Number Theory
DESCRIPTION:Let K be a number field and A/K an abelian surface (dimension 2 analogue of an elliptic curve). By the Mordell-Weil theorem\, the group of K-rational points on A is finitely generated and as for elliptic curves\, its rank is predicted by the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture. A basic consequence of this conjecture is the parity conjecture: the sign of the functional equation of the L-series determines the parity of the rank of A/K. Under suitable local constraints and finiteness of the Shafarevich-Tate group\, we prove the parity conjecture for principally polarized abelian surfaces. We also prove analogous unconditional results for Selmer groups. Speaker(s): Celine Maistret (University of Bristol)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Social\, Behavioral & Experimental Economics (SBEE): Learning and Contagion in Teams
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nWe study learning in a game where there is an optimal strategy. Learning the optimal strategy involves solving a “eureka” type logic problem\, as it requires grasping an insight that is hard to learn but\, once learned\, can easily be explained to other people. Individuals only learn slowly to use the optimal strategy\, with two subject teams with fixed members performing no better than individuals. Rematching teammates into new two subject teams immediately results in a large and persistent increase in use of the optimal strategy. This is driven by “mixed” teams\, where one teammate was previously in a team that did not play optimally and one was in a team that did play optimally. These mixed teams almost always adopt the optimal strategy\, consistent with a truth wins model. This has important implications for any setting where decision makers are likely to be groups rather than individuals\, as reshuffling team membership may be an important source of learning how to play strategically.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HEP-Astro Seminar | Neutrino Mass from Cosmology
DESCRIPTION:Neutrinos are the only standard model particles of unknown mass. Thus\, measuring their mass is one of the leading goals in fundamental physics. Cosmology currently provides the tightest bounds on the sum of the neutrino masses and the possibility that next generation experiments can provide a detection looks promising. Then\, further questions would have to be addressed\, such as those related to the neutrino hierarchy and the neutrino nature. \n\nIn this talk\, I will discuss the treasure trove of information about massive neutrinos that we can collect from different cosmological probes. In particular\, I will show that the combination of Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) and Large Scale Structure (LSS) measurements provides a tight and robust bound on the neutrino mass scale and I will introduce a novel method to assess the sensitivity of cosmological data to the neutrino hierarchy. Finally\, I will choose a different angle and show how massive neutrino unknowns can affect the constraints on inflationary models. Important findings in the neutrino sector are just around the corner and cosmology\, in combination with laboratory avenues\, will unveil neutrino secrets in the coming years.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Integrable Systems and Random Matrix Theory
DESCRIPTION:Properties of a quantum system become universal in the fully chaotic limit\, i.e. when the corresponding classical dynamics obey hyperbolicity (the exponential sensitivity to the initial conditions) and ergodicity (typical classical trajectories fill out the available phase space uniformly). At sufficiently long times\, the single particle dynamics is governed by global symmetries rather than by system particularities and demonstrate a universal behavior. In this universal regime the quantum observables can be represented by random matrix integrals. The deform-and-study approach is an adopted string theory method for revealing hidden symmetries in completely integrable systems. It allows to establish non-linear differential identities for the observables in terms of internal parameters of the system. The implementation of the above strategy will be demonstrated for the problem of quantum transport in chaotic cavities. According to the Landauer-type theories the transport observables such as conductance are expressed in terms of the scattering S-matrix. In the universal regime the S-matrix is uniformly distributed over the unitary group\, the Landauer conductance distribution takes a form of a matrix integral - an object suitable for the analysis by the deform-and-study technique. It was shown that the cumulant generation function of conductance distribution is expressed in terms of a solution to the Painleve V equation\, which\, in turn\, allows to derive a recurrence for cumulants of conductance. This mean that the problem of quantum transport in chaotic cavities is completely integrable in the universal regime. Some very recent results concerning the power spectrum distribution of eigenvalues in a chaotic system\, which were derived with the help of integrable system theory\, will be highlighted in the talk as well.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Student Combinatorics Seminar
DESCRIPTION:The A-infinity T-system\, also known as the octahedron recurrence\, is a three-dimensional recurrence that originally arose in the context of Dodgson condensation\, a method for iteratively computing the determinant of a matrix.  The octahedron recurrence has received a great deal of attention over the past 25 years.  As a consequence of cluster algebra theory\, one can express the terms in this recurrence as Laurent polynomials in initial conditions.  In this talk\, we discuss the combinatorics of solutions of T-systems\, including Speyer's bijection of the terms of these Laurent polynomials with perfect matchings of the Aztec diamond.  No background in cluster algebras will be expected. Speaker(s): Alexander Leaf (University of Michigan)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Annual Copernicus Lecture. The Glory and Poverty of the ’68 Generation
DESCRIPTION:1968 was a watershed year in the world. In democratic countries\, people protested against conservative social norms and the stability of democratic institutions. In Eastern Europe\, it was dictatorship that was questioned in the name of democracy. In Poland more specifically\, students and members of the intelligentsia fighting for freedom were severely repressed\, and the regime launched a brutal anti-Semitic campaign that forced tens of thousands of Jews into exile. It is in 1968 that the spirit of communist reform died and that the spirit of the democratic opposition against communism was born. In this lecture\, Adam Michnik will discuss the different threads that woven together made 1968 the defining moment of his generation\, a turning point for Poland\, and a dramatic crossroads for Polish Jews. \n\nAdam Michnik is editor-in-chief of Gazeta Wyborcza\, Poland’s first independent newspaper and currently its biggest daily. A historian\, Michnik co-founded the Committee for the Defense of Workers (KOR) in 1976\, and was a prominent Solidarity activist during the 1980s. He was detained many times during 1965-80\, spending a total of six years in Polish prisons for activities opposing the communist regime. Michnik participated in the Round Table Talks of 1989 that led peacefully to the first contested elections since the start of the communist regime. He was a member of Poland’s first non-communist parliament from 1989 to 1991. His many notable awards and honors include the Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights Award\, Chevalier de la Legion d’Honneur\, the Goethe Medal\, and the Erasmus Prize\, as well as honorary degrees from several institutions including the University of Michigan. \n\nPart of the Minorities series at the Weiser Center for Europe & Eurasia\, which focuses on the fates and challenges various minorities face\, from ethnic and racial groups to people with disabilities and members of LGBT communities. How do different political regimes come to define groups as minorities\, and how do they engage with them as a result? What can the experience of minorities in the other parts of the world teach us?

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Banner Moments: The National Anthem in American Life
DESCRIPTION:The new Ford Presidential Library lobby exhibit\, curated by University of Michigan musicologist Mark Clague\, illustrates through interpretive panels\, historical documents and photographs\, the cultural 200-year history of “The Star-Spangled Banner” (1814–2014). The tale that emerges demonstrates the power of music and poetry to spark the social imagination and thus create a sense of shared community.\n\nInspired by the successful defense of Baltimore\, Maryland from British attack in September 1814\, lawyer and amateur poet Francis Scott Key penned his now famous lyric. Rather than extraordinary\, Key’s creative impulse was typical of early America’s broadside ballad tradition in which new words were written to fit well known tunes. The result\, however\, was far from everyday—Key could not have predicted that his song would survive the moment\, yet become his nation’s singular anthem.\n\nFollow the “The Star-Spangled Banner” from the moments leading up to September 14\, 1814 through the present day and explore the social history of our national song.\nMarch 2017 to September 2017 \n\nMonday - Friday. 8:45 am - 4:45 pm\nClosed all Federal holidays.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Another Country
DESCRIPTION:The scenes in Another Country emerge from daily images of conflict and uprising. Discarded shoes\, tarps and handmade signs that mark the post-industrial landscape become part roadside memorial and part doomsday prophecy. These temporary sculptures - set against the backdrop of environmental decline - evoke a cautionary tale of hazmat crews and oil soaked shorelines. \n\nIf there is a place for both apathy and active resistance in the way forward to a better future\, Another Country carries the tension that’s in-between. Inspired by the visual resistance of liberation parties\, past and present\, it urges us to remember why we fight.\n\nShanna Merola is an artist\, activist\, and documentary photographer. Working for civil rights attorneys\, she photographs first amendment activity at protests and facilitates workshops on best practices during police encounters. Over the past five years she has been a human rights observer for social justice movements across the country - from the deeply embattled struggle over water rights in Detroit and Flint\, Michigan - to the frontlines of uprisings in Ferguson\, MO and Standing Rock\, ND. Her collages and constructed landscapes are informed by these rallies - from direct actions against fracking companies to the privatization of water both globally and locally. She is currently working on a collaborative production of Know Your Rights Theatre\, inspired by the politically radical puppet troupes of the 1960’s.\n\nMerola received an MFA in Photography from Cranbrook Academy of Art and a BFA in Photo and Film from Virginia Commonwealth University. She lives and works in Detroit\, Michigan.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Here and There
DESCRIPTION:\"Here and There\"  looks at the problems of extreme poverty\, and includes artist Tracey Snelling's signature piece \"One Thousand Shacks.\" New works--created on campus during her three-week residency--will examine these issues in the US\, how they relate to location and\, at times\, the disenfranchisement of large groups of people for the sake of big business\, political clout\, and power. \n\nCurator's Statement:\n\nTo meet artist Tracey Snelling evokes the sensation of a strong willed breeze determined to open a backyard door. \n\nAs an artist and person\, she is down to earth\, direct\, contemporary\, and moving through it all with volition. \n\nSnelling’s artistic practice originally focused on photography as a medium\, but soon evolved to include her construction of sculptures based upon cities and towns\, strip malls and urban housing. \n\nShe refers to her three dimensional work as sculptural rather than diorama or model making because she isn’t particularly interested in the exact rendering of location\, or the contextualization of place. Instead\, she taps into the energy of community and its humanness—restless\, frenetic\, din\, a choir\, extending beyond the confines of walls. \n\nSnelling’s representations are neither judgmental nor opportunistic. They unaffectedly and objectively offer a multidimensional sketch of a place in time\, how we occupy space. \n\nHer signature piece \"One Thousand Shacks\" (included in this exhibition along with new work created during her her residency here) pushes up against the challenges of economic inequalities\, racial biases\, and imposed class divisions that often limit the options available to so many people. Concurrently\, the installation embraces our everyday existence expressed through Snelling’s exuberant palette\, bold graphics\, video and neon. \n\nConceptually\, Snelling’s stacking method first creates an exalted “big picture” with a myriad of colors\, image\, text\, sound and light. The counterpoint in scale soon immerses the viewer into each small world. With this shift\, the onlooker becomes the active participant\, the occupant in situ\, adding the trappings of their own experiences to each tableau. It is this shift that forces the viewer into a new way of seeing from varying perspectives.\n\nOn the one hand\, the artist’s sculptures allude to our desire for refuge\, a private domain that allows us to be ourselves. On the other\, the overall composition reaffirms it is imperative that we co-exist with one another respectfully\, forge relationships\, understanding our marked differences. It is diversity—the unique and often disparate combination of things\, the cacophony of it all\, that activates communities and public space.\n\nSnelling’s constructions literally build a way out\, one on top of another\, charged with the undercurrent of the way we live. They emphasize our universal longing to find a place called home\, and be accepted\, built on the foundation of one and of many. \n–Amanda Krugliak\, Arts Curator\, Institute for the Humanities\n\nAbout Tracey Snelling:\nThrough the use of sculpture\, photography\, video\, and large-scale installation\, Tracey Snelling gives her impression of a place\, its people and their experience. Often\, the cinematic image stands in for real life as it plays out behind windows in the buildings\, sometimes creating a sense of mystery\, other times stressing the mundane. Snelling’s work derives from voyeurism\, film noir\, and geographical and architectural location. Within this idea of location\, themes develop that transport observation into the realm of storytelling\, with reality and sociological study being the focus. Snelling had exhibited in international galleries\, museums and institutions\, including the The Royal Museum of Fine Arts\, Belgium\; Palazzo Reale\, Milan\; Museum of Arts and Design\, New York\; Kunstmuseen Krefeld Germany\; El Museo de Arte de Banco de la Republica\, Bogota\; the Stenersen Museet\, Oslo\, and the Sundance Film Festival. Her short films have screened at the San Francisco International Film Festival\, the Thessaloniki International Film Festival\, Circuito Off in Venice\, Italy\, and the Arquiteturas Film Festival Lisboa in Portugal. She also received a 2015 Joan Mitchell Painters and Sculptors Grant. Snelling lives and works in Oakland\, California and Berlin\, Germany.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Chicana Fotos: Nancy De Los Santos
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition Dates: Friday\, February 17 - April 14\, 2017\nOpening Reception: Friday\, February 17\, 2017 from 4 - 7 pm\, featuring a performance by Ballet Folklórico De Detroit at 6 pm.\nGallery Talk by Nancy De Los Santos and exhibition curator Maria Cotera: Friday\, February 17\, 2017 at 12 pm\, Walter P. Reuther Library Woodcock Conference Room\nWalter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University\n5401 Cass Ave\, Detroit\, MI 48202\n\nBorn and raised in Chicago by Mexican-American parents\, Nancy De Los Santos is an accomplished filmmaker and proud “Chicana from Chicago” who has dedicated her life and career to rewriting and redefining the image of Latina/os in the mainstream media. Among her most celebrated works are as Co-Writer and Co-Producer of The Bronze Screen: 100 Years of the Latin Image in Hollywood Cinema\, with Susan Racho and Alberto Dominguez\, and as Associate Producer on the feature film Selena.\n\nIn Chicana Fotos\, an exhibit of evocative photographs taken in the 1970s\, we meet a very different Nancy: a woman armed with a camera\, capturing historic events in the struggles for social justice of the time. Nancy’s photographs of Chicano Movement marches and rallies\, farmworker mobilizations in Chicago and Texas\, and Latina organizing in the Midwest and internationally offer a priceless documentary view of Latina/o politics in the 1970s. Her more intimate pictures of everyday Latina/o life capture what it was like to live through a period of radical social transformation. The exhibit includes rare photographs of UFW organizing activities in Chicago\, the Texas Farmworker Pilgrimage of 1977\, and the first ever International Women’s Year Conference in Mexico City in 1975. These images are supplemented by never before exhibited documents from the Walter P. Reuther UFW Collection.\n\nChicana Fotos was curated by University of Michigan professor Maria Cotera (with assistance from Pau Nava) and designed by students and faculty of the UM Stamps School of Art & Design. Stamps School faculty Hannah Smotrich and Katie Rubin co-taught the collaborative\, interdisciplinary Exhibition Design class with students Ian Crowley\, Rachel Dawson\, Emilie Farrugia\, Kelsi Franzino\, Andrew Han\, Jack Hyland\, Maggie Lemak\, Megan Lewin-Smith\, Katie Mongoven\, Olivia Moore\, Pau Nava\, and Sarah Wolf.\n\nChicana Fotos is a collaboration between the El Museo del Norte\, the Chicana por mi Raza Digital Archive\, the Stamps School of Art & Design and the Walter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University.\n\nThe Walter P. Reuther Library of Labor and Urban Affairs at Wayne State University is the largest labor archive in North America. In addition to internationally significant collections on the history of the North American labor movement\, the Reuther Library holds the official records of Wayne State University\, as well as extensive records documenting urban affairs\, civic life\, civil rights\, ethnic and religious organizations\, and community development across Southeast Michigan.\n\nChicana Fotos was made possible through the generous financial support of the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative and the Stamps School of Art & Design. Gallery talk sponsored by the Center for Latina/o and Latin American Studies\, Wayne State University\, and the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Constructing Gender
DESCRIPTION:Ask U-M students\, alumni\, or fans what symbolizes the University of Michigan\, and you’ll likely hear the Big House\, the Diag\, along with the Michigan Union and the Michigan League. Since they officially opened in 1919 and 1929\, respectively\, the Union and League have been destinations for generations of Wolverines yet few know the rich history of the buildings’ origins or about the architects who brought them both to life: brothers and U-M alums Irving K. and Allen Pond.\n\nThe exhibition\, organized in celebration of the University of Michigan’s bicentennial in 2017\, illuminates the architecture and bustling student life of these iconic buildings using original drawings\, renderings\, photographs\, color studies\, and even dance cards from the Bentley Historical Library\, which serves as the University of Michigan archives. These fascinating documents reveal how the buildings were conceived\, constructed\, and first occupied by students and alumni. Guest curated by Nancy Bartlett of the Bentley Historical Library\, the exhibition reveals how the Ponds meticulously conceived and constructed the two clubs—one for men\, one for women—by weaving ideas about gender and society into the very fabric of the buildings themselves.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run
DESCRIPTION:In 2013\, artist Ernestine Ruben (BSDEs ’53) photographed the once-famed industrial complex Willow Run in Washtenaw County\, Michigan. Designed by her grandfather\, Detroit architect Albert Kahn\, for the Ford Motor Company\, Willow Run was an exemplar of American defense manufacturing because of its efficient mass-production of B-24 Liberators during World War II.\n\nFor this exhibition\, Ruben overlaid interior views of the now-dormant factory with imagined glimpses into her body’s interior landscape. The resulting compositions seem to breathe energy and light into the stagnant and cavernous spaces of Willow Run and suggest a longing for a productive existence undeterred by mortality for both Willow Run and the artist. Her grandfather’s role in the history of the site underscores Ruben’s personal connection.\n\nThe exhibition presents Ruben’s photographs of Willow Run in UMMA’s Photography Gallery and an original film—co-created by Ruben and video artist Seth Bernstein and featuring an original score by award-winning composer Stephen Hartke—in the Museum’s Forum.\n\nLead support for Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run: Mobilizing Memory is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.\n\n\n\nLead support for Victors for the Arts: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the President\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

Designed by her grandfather\, Detroit architect Albert Kahn\, for the Ford Motor Company\, Willow Run was an exemplar of American defense manufacturing because of its efficient mass-production of B-24 Liberators during World War II.\n\nFor this exhibition\, Ruben overlaid interior views of the now-dormant factory with imagined glimpses into her body’s interior landscape. The resulting compositions seem to breathe energy and light into the stagnant and cavernous spaces of Willow Run and suggest a longing for a productive existence undeterred by mortality for both Willow Run and the artist. Her grandfather’s role in the history of the site underscores Ruben’s personal connection.\n\nThe exhibition presents Ruben’s photographs of Willow Run in UMMA’s Photography Gallery and an original film—co-created by Ruben and video artist Seth Bernstein and featuring an original score by award-winning composer Stephen Hartke—in the Museum’s Forum.\n\nLead support for Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run: Mobilizing Memory is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:GOIN’ NORTH: BLACK DETROIT  AND THE  GREAT MIGRATION\,  1910-1930
DESCRIPTION:Summary: \nExhibit of photographs and documents produced by the Michigan Historical Collections in Commemoration of Martin Luther King\, Jr. Day at the University of Michigan\, published 1991.\nBLACK DETROIT AND THE GREAT MIGRATION\n\nSince Norf is up\,\nAn’ Souf is down\,\nAn’ Hebben is up\,\nI’m upward boun’.*\nThey came to Detroit by the thousands from Georgia\, Alabama\, Tennessee\, South Caroline and they stayed. They were part of what historians characterize as a watershed in African American History-the Great Migration. From 1910 to 1930\, hundreds of thousands of Blacks headed North\, leaving the South because of economic hardship\, poor educational opportunities\, and enticed by the lure of better jobs in northern industries and more freedom. Cites in the industrial Northeast and Midwest experienced astounding increases in their Black populations\, but few more so that Detroit\, its institutions and its cultures\, took shape and developed. The problems encountered by the migrants in the form of discrimination and racial animosity were problems with which the city would grapple throughout the decades to follow.\n\nThis exhibit focused on the two major concerns of the migrants\, housing and jobs\, and on the attempts made by various organizations in adjusting to life in Detroit. It is primarily compiled from the holding s of the University of Michigan’s Bentley Historical Library\, particularly the rich collection of the Detroit Urban League. It is also drawn from the Collections of the Detroit Public Library\, the Walter Reuther Collection of the Detroit Public Library\, the Walter Reuther Collection of Labor History and Urban Affairs (Wayne State University)\, the Collections of the Henry Ford Museum and Greenfield Village\, the Detroit News\, and tge Second Baptist Church of Detroit\, Michigan. The exhibit was prepared by Christine Weideman and Karen Jania\, staff members of the Bentley Historical Library.\n\n*From the poem\, “Northboun’” by Lucy Ariel Williams\, printed in Opportunity “: a Journal of Negro Life\, June 1926. The journal was a publication of the National Urban League.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Victors for Art: Michigan's Alumni Collectors–Part I: Figuration
DESCRIPTION:Commemorating the University of Michigan’s 2017 Bicentennial\, Victors for Art: Michigan’s Alumni Collectors celebrates the deep impact of Michigan alumni in the global art world. This two-part exhibition (Part I: Figuration followed by Part II: Abstraction on view July 1– October 29) presents works collected by a diverse group of alumni that represent the breadth of the University and over seventy years of graduating classes. The works themselves are equally diverse\, ranging from ancient sculptures to contemporary multimedia works. Part I: Figuration features works by Henri Matisse\, Elizabeth Louise Vigée Le Brun\, Mark Tansey\, and Mickalene Thomas\, among others\, and allows visitors to explore the variety of artistic responses and purposes encompassed by the term “figuration”. It also offers an unprecedented opportunity to view art that may have never been publicly displayed otherwise—and most certainly\, not all together. For visitors\, and especially for future Michigan alumni\, Victors for Art illuminates the shared passion for art fostered by the Michigan experience.\n\nThis exhibition was organized by Joseph Rosa\, Guest Curator\, in collaboration with Laura De Becker\, Helmut & Candis Stern Associate Curator of African Art\, Jennifer Friess\, Assistant Curator of Photography\, Lehti Mairike Keelman\, Assistant Curator of Western Art\, and Natsu Oyobe\, Curator of Asian Art.\n\nLead support for Victors for the Arts: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the President\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Complex Systems Seminar Series Presents: \"Network Evolution and Synchronization in the Olfactory System\"
DESCRIPTION:The early processing of olfactory information in the olfactory bulb of rodents is highly dynamic. On long time scales the connectivity of its neuronal network evolves persistently - even in adult animals - through synaptic rewiring and the addition and removal of neurons. On short time scales the neuronal activity exhibits pronounced population rhythms reflecting the coherent activity of large ensembles of neurons. Starting from various experimental observations\, we have developed simple computational models of this network evolution that suggest that cortical feed-back controls the adaptive formation of subnetworks through which cortex then modifies sensory processing by the olfactory bulb. The gamma-rhythms of different such subnetworks can have different frequencies. We show that even uncorrelated noise can synchronize these population rhythms.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Health\, History\, Demography & Development (H2D2): Identification and Estimation of Spillover Effects in Randomized Trials
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\n\nDespite the longstanding interest in spillover effects across different fields in economics and other social sciences\, the empirical literature has not come to an agreement regarding identification and estimation in randomized experiments in the presence of externalities. This paper provides a causal framework to study spillover effects in a setting where units are clustered and their potential outcomes can depend on the treatment assignment of all the units within a cluster.  Using this framework\, I discuss parameters of interest and provide conditions under which spillover effects can be identified. I assess the performance of three commonly applied techniques\, the difference in means\, which ignores the presence of externalities\, linear-in-means models and two-stage randomization designs. I then evaluate whether (or under what conditions) these three techniques identify the parameters of interest. Finally\, I put forth easily implemented empirical strategies for estimating these spillover effects and I illustrate my proposed methodology using two empirical applications\, one in education and one in political economy.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LRCCS Noon Lecture Series | US China Relations in the Era of Donald Trump
DESCRIPTION:We’re witnessing the education of Donald Trump on China. It is sometimes ugly\, often embarrassing\, and rich in historical parallels. Still\, Trump has identified an essential truth in the relationship: When it comes to U.S.-China business\, trade policies\, and even geopolitics\, the Chinese system seems to be working better for China than the American system is working for America right now. The question is does Trump and his team have the skill to remedy this situation.\n \nJohn Pomfret is an award-winning journalist and writer\, and the author of the best-selling Chinese Lessons: Five Classmates and the Story of the New China. He first went to study in China in 1980 and has spent 20 years living in China as a correspondent and writer. His most recent book is titled The Beautiful Country and the Middle Kingdom: America and China\, 1776 to the Present (2016).

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:REBUILD Seminar | Lessons Learned from the Dynamic Genome Program
DESCRIPTION:Register here for this Brown Bag Seminar: http://www.crlt.umich.edu/events/FCI\n\nDr. Sue Wessler is the Neil A and Rochelle A Campbell Presidential Chair for Innovations in Science Education and Distinguished Professor of Genetics at University of California Riverside\; Howard Hughes Medical Institute Professor\; Home Secretary\, National Academy of Sciences.\nThe University of California\, Riverside (UCR) is one of the most diverse research universities in the country. More than half of the 5000 students in our College of Natural and Agricultural Sciences (CNAS) are supported by Pell grants\, are members of underrepresented groups\, and are first generation college students. To improve student persistence in STEM\, CNAS has focused on two experiential interventions for first year students: (1) Learning Communities - designed to engage groups of 24 students with faculty\, academic advisors and near-peer mentors\, and (2) the Dynamic Genome course - an authentic research experience where UCR research faculty take ownership of a section and bring the excitement of their research labs to the classroom. The Dynamic Genome (DG) course is an alternative to the traditional Intro Bio Lab where learning communities are randomly assigned to one lab experience or the other. \n\nNow in its sixth year at UC Riverside\, DG is a hands-on bioinformatics/wet lab course that is taught in the state of the art Neil A Campbell Science Learning Laboratory. First articulated in my HHMI Professor Program in 2006\, the DG course was initially proposed as an undergraduate laboratory that replicated my research lab where students learned to navigate cutting-edge methodologies applied to transposable elements in eukaryotic genomes. UC Riverside has proven to be fertile ground for the rapid expansion of the DG course model to a projected 24 sections with a total of 600 first year students by 2018. With the tools and knowledge gained from the Learning Community and Dynamic Genome experiences\, an increasing number of students are entering faculty laboratories as first or second year students.\n\nFor more information about the Foundational Course Initiative\, please see https://rebuild.lsa.umich.edu/ or contact Tim McKay (tamckay@umich.edu).

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Fictions of Fabric: Art\, Literature\, Design
DESCRIPTION:- Susan Siegfried (History of Art): Chair\n\n- Martha Jones (History\, Afroamerican and African Studies): Introduction\n- Anne Lafont (University of East Paris/Marne-la-Vallée\, Norman Freeling Visiting Fellow at the Institute for the Humanities): “The Fabric as Skin Tissue : Layering Race”\n- Megan Sweeney (English language and Literature\, Afroamerican and African Studies): \"Selvedge\, Salvage\".\n- Courtney Wilder (Graduate Student\, History of Art): “Printing and Representing Fashionable Novelty\, 1820-1850”\n\n- Jean Hébrard (EHESS\, Visiting fellow at the Institute for the Humanities)\, Katie Lennard (Graduate Student\, American Culture)\, and Susan Siegfried (History of Art): Comment\n\nJesper Svenbro in Le Métier de Zeus explains that to weave (uphainö) was one of the most prolific metaphors in Ancient Greece.  The form textis referred not only to the production of an oral text\, but also to the complex links between lyrical poets and their public. “Fabric” has the same fecundity in our modern languages\, but it seems to speak less of its process of production than of the object produced.  In the racialized social world constructed with the Atlantic expansion of the West\, fabric has served as a second skin\, hiding/transforming/exposing the varieties of the skin underneath.  When fabric is produced as a fashion artifact that can be exchanged for a slave on the African market\, when it is painted on a canvas in relationship to the skin it offers/refuses to the spectators of colonial territories\, when it is literally and metaphorically called upon to define the borders of bodies and selves\, fabric interlaces design\, art\, and literature. Our round-table will explore some of these many-textured layers of fabric.  \n\nAnne Lafont is a visiting fellow at the Institute for the Humanities\, an assistant professor of modern art history at the University of Paris-Marne la Vallée\, and a scholarly advisor in the field of the history of art history at the French National Institute of Art History (INHA\, 2007-2012).

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Student Geometry/Topology
DESCRIPTION:I will introduce the notion of volume entropy of a Riemannian manifold and establish a relationship with the topological entropy of the manifold. I plan to sketch Manning's proof of the equality of these two entropies under the assumption of non-positive sectional curvature. To illustrate the importance of this concept of volume entropy\, I will try to discuss a theorem due to Besson\, Courtois and Gallot. Among other things\, it will show that on a manifold\, the locally symmetric metric of negative curvature is uniquely determined by two numbers - its volume entropy and volume.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:At the Cutting Edge: Michigan in 1817
DESCRIPTION:When the University of Michigan was founded in 1817 it was located in the capitol of a raw frontier territory that was yet twenty years away from achieving statehood.  Much of the Michigan Territory was still in the hands of several Native American nations. Euro-American settlement was found only in the Southeast and at the Straits of Mackinac. The proper surveying of Michigan would not begin for another year. And\, only five years earlier\, Detroit and Mackinac had been captured and occupied by the British during the War of 1812.  Establishing an institution of higher learning in this rough territory was a gamble indeed.\n\nBrian Leigh Dunnigan\, Curator of Maps at the University of Michigan's William L. Clements Library\, will present a talk describing what Michigan was like when the U-M first opened its doors to scholars.  Using images of original maps\, art\, architecture\, and letters from the amazing collections of the Clements Library\, he will transport you back to the Michigan of 200 years ago.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM-AMO Seminar | Defects in Optically Active Semiconductors for Quantum Applications
DESCRIPTION:Defects can provide highly homogeneous potentials for quantum particles (electrons and holes) in crystals\, enabling atomic-like physics in a solid-state environment. The availability of high-purity crystals\, in which either single defects can be resolved or ensembles of non-interacting identical defects can exist\, has spurred significant interest in utilizing defects for quantum-enabled applications (e.g. information processing and sensing). In this talk I will first present the potential of combining solid-state defects and integrated photonics to realize quantum information processors\, focusing on my own group’s research on the nitrogen-vacancy defect in diamond. In the second half\, I present our work researching the fundamental properties of effective mass carriers and excitons bound to defects (0D\, 1D\, and 2D) in direct bandgap materials which may be promising alternatives to diamond-based platforms. \n\nBio: Kai-Mei Fu received her A.B. in Physics from Princeton University in 2000 and her M.S. and Ph.D. in Applied Physics from Stanford University in 2003 and 2007\, respectively. She worked as a research associate at HP Labs\, Palo Alto from 2007-2011 before joining the faculty at the University of Washington with a joint position in Physics and Electrical Engineering. Her research focuses on understanding and engineering the quantum properties of point defects in crystals for quantum information and sensing applications. She is the recipient of the NSF CAREER Award\, the Cottrell Scholar Award\, and the UW College of Engineering Junior Faculty Award.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Pulitzer Center and University of Michigan Communication Studies Present:  Ending AIDS: An on-the-ground look at efforts in Africa and the United States to end the HIV/AIDS epidemic.
DESCRIPTION:Jon Cohen is a widely published magazine writer and author of four nonfiction books on scientific topics. Cohen has been a reporter for Science since 1990\, and also has written for the New Yorker\, Atlantic Monthly\, the New York Times Magazine\, Smithsonian\, Technology Review\, Outside\, Slate\, Surfer and many other publications. \n\nWith support from the Pulitzer Center\, Jon Cohen coordinated a package of stories for four media outlets that look at attempts to end the AIDS epidemic in the United States and sub-Saharan Africa. Cohen\, a staff writer with Science\, who has covered the HIV/AIDS epidemic in more than 50 countries\, has worked with PBS NewsHour to produce five video segments in New York\, San Francisco\, Atlanta\, Kenya\, Rwanda\, and South Africa. Other work includes an online story for BuzzFeed about Zimbabwe\, a feature story about South Africa for Science\, and for UCTV\, a documentary about Diane Havlir\, a co-chair of San Francisco’s Getting to Zero project who heads the HIV/AIDS program at UC San Francisco’s General Hospital. All of the stories appeared before the international AIDS conference to be held in Durban\, South Africa\, in July 2016. \n\nIn addition to HIV/AIDS and other infectious diseases\, Cohen has reported on genetics\, primate research\, evolution\, bioterrorism\, vaccines and immunology\, the National Institutes of Health\, reproductive biology\, credit battles\, and the media itself.\n\nCohen specializes in the infectious disease issues of people who are excluded from society because of a variety of overlapping factors\, including poverty\, homelessness\, immigration status\, substance abuse\, sexual orientation\, sex work\, and being from a minority population. He strives to show problems and potential solutions from the ground up\, spending time with everyone from the vulnerable or infected people to the outreach workers\, advocates\, clinicians\, researchers and government officials who address public health issues.\n\nCohen’s articles twice have been selected for the Best American Science and Nature Writing (2008 and 2011). His books and articles have won awards from the National Association of Science Writers\, the Council for the Advancement of Science Writing\, the American Society for Microbiology\, the Global Health Council\, the Pan American Health Organization\, the National Academy of Sciences\, the Treatment Action Group\, and the Gaia Vaccine Foundation.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:U-M Works Because We Do: Graduate Workers and GEO at the University of Michigan
DESCRIPTION:The Graduate Employee's Organization represents graduate student instructors and graduate student staff assistants at the University of Michigan. First established in 1970\, GEO was among the first graduate student unions in the United States. The union secured its first contract in 1975\, following a month-long strike\, as members demanded fair wages\, working conditions\, and non-discrimination. Since then\, GEO has bargaining for wage increases\, no-premium healthcare\, tuition waivers\, childcare subsidies\, dental coverage\, access to trans healthcare\, and disability accommodations. This event will feature two former GEO organizers--Sandra Silbertstein and Scott Schneider--in conversation with a member of the union's current bargaining team\, Nora Krinitsky. They will reflect on the early years of the union\, consider the place of graduate labor in the broader labor movement then and now\, and discuss the future of campus labor organizing.\n\nThis LSA Bicentennial Theme Semester event is presented with support from the College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office. Additional support provided by the Department of History and the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Musicology Lecture: Dr. Joy H. Calico\, Vanderbilt University
DESCRIPTION:On 31 March 1913 Arnold Schoenberg conducted a concert in the Great Hall of Vienna’s Musikverein that would become known as that city’s most notorious scandal concert.  The event was broken up by a melee\, charges were filed\, and the subsequent court proceedings were reported in the press. This paper analyzes the ways in which both the scandal and Schoenberg’s response to it sit at the nexus of fin-de-siècle anxieties about Central European concert life\, the anti-noise movement\, and emerging copyright law.\n\n*There is limited seating for this event\, so arriving early is suggested*

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Student Algebraic Geometry
DESCRIPTION:Raynaud in 1971 showed that the Kodaira vanishing theorem fails in positive characteristic. However\, one may still ask: what are the consequences of the failure of Kodaira vanishing? We will present a theorem due to Kollar\, which says that non-vanishing of H1(X\,L*) for an ample line bundle L has very strong geometric consequences. The main ingredient of the proof is a construction by Ekedahl of a purely inseparable cover of X with unusual properties. We will also mention applications to the classification of del Pezzo surfaces and Fano threefolds due to Ekedahl and Shepherd-Barron. Speaker(s): Takumi Murayama (UM)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Causal Inference in Education Research Seminar (CIERS)
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\n\nWe test the effect of professor feedback on student success in higher education classrooms though a \"light-touch\" randomized intervention. We present results from both a small pilot in one introductory-level microeconomics course at a comprehensive research university\, and the scale-up conducted in over 20 classrooms in a large broad-access university. The intervention consisted of several strategically-timed E-mails to students from the professor indicating keys to success in the class\, the professor’s knowledge of the students’ current standing in the course\, and a reminder of when the professor is available. Results from the pilot show that students in the treatment group scored higher on exams\, homework assignments\, and final course grade\, compared to students in the control group. Results from the larger experiment at the broad access institution are more mixed\, with strong positive effects on final course grade for Latino students (the largest racial/ethnic group on the campus)\, but not for other groups. In addition\, we explore several mechanisms\, including increased time spent on homework assignments (pilot) and a lower likelihood of dropout/failure and increased sense of support from the professor (scale-up).

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Banner Moments: The National Anthem in American Life
DESCRIPTION:The new Ford Presidential Library lobby exhibit\, curated by University of Michigan musicologist Mark Clague\, illustrates through interpretive panels\, historical documents and photographs\, the cultural 200-year history of “The Star-Spangled Banner” (1814–2014). The tale that emerges demonstrates the power of music and poetry to spark the social imagination and thus create a sense of shared community.\n\nInspired by the successful defense of Baltimore\, Maryland from British attack in September 1814\, lawyer and amateur poet Francis Scott Key penned his now famous lyric. Rather than extraordinary\, Key’s creative impulse was typical of early America’s broadside ballad tradition in which new words were written to fit well known tunes. The result\, however\, was far from everyday—Key could not have predicted that his song would survive the moment\, yet become his nation’s singular anthem.\n\nFollow the “The Star-Spangled Banner” from the moments leading up to September 14\, 1814 through the present day and explore the social history of our national song.\nMarch 2017 to September 2017 \n\nMonday - Friday. 8:45 am - 4:45 pm\nClosed all Federal holidays.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Another Country
DESCRIPTION:The scenes in Another Country emerge from daily images of conflict and uprising. Discarded shoes\, tarps and handmade signs that mark the post-industrial landscape become part roadside memorial and part doomsday prophecy. These temporary sculptures - set against the backdrop of environmental decline - evoke a cautionary tale of hazmat crews and oil soaked shorelines. \n\nIf there is a place for both apathy and active resistance in the way forward to a better future\, Another Country carries the tension that’s in-between. Inspired by the visual resistance of liberation parties\, past and present\, it urges us to remember why we fight.\n\nShanna Merola is an artist\, activist\, and documentary photographer. Working for civil rights attorneys\, she photographs first amendment activity at protests and facilitates workshops on best practices during police encounters. Over the past five years she has been a human rights observer for social justice movements across the country - from the deeply embattled struggle over water rights in Detroit and Flint\, Michigan - to the frontlines of uprisings in Ferguson\, MO and Standing Rock\, ND. Her collages and constructed landscapes are informed by these rallies - from direct actions against fracking companies to the privatization of water both globally and locally. She is currently working on a collaborative production of Know Your Rights Theatre\, inspired by the politically radical puppet troupes of the 1960’s.\n\nMerola received an MFA in Photography from Cranbrook Academy of Art and a BFA in Photo and Film from Virginia Commonwealth University. She lives and works in Detroit\, Michigan.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Here and There
DESCRIPTION:\"Here and There\"  looks at the problems of extreme poverty\, and includes artist Tracey Snelling's signature piece \"One Thousand Shacks.\" New works--created on campus during her three-week residency--will examine these issues in the US\, how they relate to location and\, at times\, the disenfranchisement of large groups of people for the sake of big business\, political clout\, and power. \n\nCurator's Statement:\n\nTo meet artist Tracey Snelling evokes the sensation of a strong willed breeze determined to open a backyard door. \n\nAs an artist and person\, she is down to earth\, direct\, contemporary\, and moving through it all with volition. \n\nSnelling’s artistic practice originally focused on photography as a medium\, but soon evolved to include her construction of sculptures based upon cities and towns\, strip malls and urban housing. \n\nShe refers to her three dimensional work as sculptural rather than diorama or model making because she isn’t particularly interested in the exact rendering of location\, or the contextualization of place. Instead\, she taps into the energy of community and its humanness—restless\, frenetic\, din\, a choir\, extending beyond the confines of walls. \n\nSnelling’s representations are neither judgmental nor opportunistic. They unaffectedly and objectively offer a multidimensional sketch of a place in time\, how we occupy space. \n\nHer signature piece \"One Thousand Shacks\" (included in this exhibition along with new work created during her her residency here) pushes up against the challenges of economic inequalities\, racial biases\, and imposed class divisions that often limit the options available to so many people. Concurrently\, the installation embraces our everyday existence expressed through Snelling’s exuberant palette\, bold graphics\, video and neon. \n\nConceptually\, Snelling’s stacking method first creates an exalted “big picture” with a myriad of colors\, image\, text\, sound and light. The counterpoint in scale soon immerses the viewer into each small world. With this shift\, the onlooker becomes the active participant\, the occupant in situ\, adding the trappings of their own experiences to each tableau. It is this shift that forces the viewer into a new way of seeing from varying perspectives.\n\nOn the one hand\, the artist’s sculptures allude to our desire for refuge\, a private domain that allows us to be ourselves. On the other\, the overall composition reaffirms it is imperative that we co-exist with one another respectfully\, forge relationships\, understanding our marked differences. It is diversity—the unique and often disparate combination of things\, the cacophony of it all\, that activates communities and public space.\n\nSnelling’s constructions literally build a way out\, one on top of another\, charged with the undercurrent of the way we live. They emphasize our universal longing to find a place called home\, and be accepted\, built on the foundation of one and of many. \n–Amanda Krugliak\, Arts Curator\, Institute for the Humanities\n\nAbout Tracey Snelling:\nThrough the use of sculpture\, photography\, video\, and large-scale installation\, Tracey Snelling gives her impression of a place\, its people and their experience. Often\, the cinematic image stands in for real life as it plays out behind windows in the buildings\, sometimes creating a sense of mystery\, other times stressing the mundane. Snelling’s work derives from voyeurism\, film noir\, and geographical and architectural location. Within this idea of location\, themes develop that transport observation into the realm of storytelling\, with reality and sociological study being the focus. Snelling had exhibited in international galleries\, museums and institutions\, including the The Royal Museum of Fine Arts\, Belgium\; Palazzo Reale\, Milan\; Museum of Arts and Design\, New York\; Kunstmuseen Krefeld Germany\; El Museo de Arte de Banco de la Republica\, Bogota\; the Stenersen Museet\, Oslo\, and the Sundance Film Festival. Her short films have screened at the San Francisco International Film Festival\, the Thessaloniki International Film Festival\, Circuito Off in Venice\, Italy\, and the Arquiteturas Film Festival Lisboa in Portugal. She also received a 2015 Joan Mitchell Painters and Sculptors Grant. Snelling lives and works in Oakland\, California and Berlin\, Germany.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Chicana Fotos: Nancy De Los Santos
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition Dates: Friday\, February 17 - April 14\, 2017\nOpening Reception: Friday\, February 17\, 2017 from 4 - 7 pm\, featuring a performance by Ballet Folklórico De Detroit at 6 pm.\nGallery Talk by Nancy De Los Santos and exhibition curator Maria Cotera: Friday\, February 17\, 2017 at 12 pm\, Walter P. Reuther Library Woodcock Conference Room\nWalter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University\n5401 Cass Ave\, Detroit\, MI 48202\n\nBorn and raised in Chicago by Mexican-American parents\, Nancy De Los Santos is an accomplished filmmaker and proud “Chicana from Chicago” who has dedicated her life and career to rewriting and redefining the image of Latina/os in the mainstream media. Among her most celebrated works are as Co-Writer and Co-Producer of The Bronze Screen: 100 Years of the Latin Image in Hollywood Cinema\, with Susan Racho and Alberto Dominguez\, and as Associate Producer on the feature film Selena.\n\nIn Chicana Fotos\, an exhibit of evocative photographs taken in the 1970s\, we meet a very different Nancy: a woman armed with a camera\, capturing historic events in the struggles for social justice of the time. Nancy’s photographs of Chicano Movement marches and rallies\, farmworker mobilizations in Chicago and Texas\, and Latina organizing in the Midwest and internationally offer a priceless documentary view of Latina/o politics in the 1970s. Her more intimate pictures of everyday Latina/o life capture what it was like to live through a period of radical social transformation. The exhibit includes rare photographs of UFW organizing activities in Chicago\, the Texas Farmworker Pilgrimage of 1977\, and the first ever International Women’s Year Conference in Mexico City in 1975. These images are supplemented by never before exhibited documents from the Walter P. Reuther UFW Collection.\n\nChicana Fotos was curated by University of Michigan professor Maria Cotera (with assistance from Pau Nava) and designed by students and faculty of the UM Stamps School of Art & Design. Stamps School faculty Hannah Smotrich and Katie Rubin co-taught the collaborative\, interdisciplinary Exhibition Design class with students Ian Crowley\, Rachel Dawson\, Emilie Farrugia\, Kelsi Franzino\, Andrew Han\, Jack Hyland\, Maggie Lemak\, Megan Lewin-Smith\, Katie Mongoven\, Olivia Moore\, Pau Nava\, and Sarah Wolf.\n\nChicana Fotos is a collaboration between the El Museo del Norte\, the Chicana por mi Raza Digital Archive\, the Stamps School of Art & Design and the Walter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University.\n\nThe Walter P. Reuther Library of Labor and Urban Affairs at Wayne State University is the largest labor archive in North America. In addition to internationally significant collections on the history of the North American labor movement\, the Reuther Library holds the official records of Wayne State University\, as well as extensive records documenting urban affairs\, civic life\, civil rights\, ethnic and religious organizations\, and community development across Southeast Michigan.\n\nChicana Fotos was made possible through the generous financial support of the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative and the Stamps School of Art & Design. Gallery talk sponsored by the Center for Latina/o and Latin American Studies\, Wayne State University\, and the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Constructing Gender
DESCRIPTION:Ask U-M students\, alumni\, or fans what symbolizes the University of Michigan\, and you’ll likely hear the Big House\, the Diag\, along with the Michigan Union and the Michigan League. Since they officially opened in 1919 and 1929\, respectively\, the Union and League have been destinations for generations of Wolverines yet few know the rich history of the buildings’ origins or about the architects who brought them both to life: brothers and U-M alums Irving K. and Allen Pond.\n\nThe exhibition\, organized in celebration of the University of Michigan’s bicentennial in 2017\, illuminates the architecture and bustling student life of these iconic buildings using original drawings\, renderings\, photographs\, color studies\, and even dance cards from the Bentley Historical Library\, which serves as the University of Michigan archives. These fascinating documents reveal how the buildings were conceived\, constructed\, and first occupied by students and alumni. Guest curated by Nancy Bartlett of the Bentley Historical Library\, the exhibition reveals how the Ponds meticulously conceived and constructed the two clubs—one for men\, one for women—by weaving ideas about gender and society into the very fabric of the buildings themselves.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run
DESCRIPTION:In 2013\, artist Ernestine Ruben (BSDEs ’53) photographed the once-famed industrial complex Willow Run in Washtenaw County\, Michigan. Designed by her grandfather\, Detroit architect Albert Kahn\, for the Ford Motor Company\, Willow Run was an exemplar of American defense manufacturing because of its efficient mass-production of B-24 Liberators during World War II.\n\nFor this exhibition\, Ruben overlaid interior views of the now-dormant factory with imagined glimpses into her body’s interior landscape. The resulting compositions seem to breathe energy and light into the stagnant and cavernous spaces of Willow Run and suggest a longing for a productive existence undeterred by mortality for both Willow Run and the artist. Her grandfather’s role in the history of the site underscores Ruben’s personal connection.\n\nThe exhibition presents Ruben’s photographs of Willow Run in UMMA’s Photography Gallery and an original film—co-created by Ruben and video artist Seth Bernstein and featuring an original score by award-winning composer Stephen Hartke—in the Museum’s Forum.\n\nLead support for Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run: Mobilizing Memory is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.\n\n\n\nLead support for Victors for the Arts: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the President\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:GOIN’ NORTH: BLACK DETROIT  AND THE  GREAT MIGRATION\,  1910-1930
DESCRIPTION:Summary: \nExhibit of photographs and documents produced by the Michigan Historical Collections in Commemoration of Martin Luther King\, Jr. Day at the University of Michigan\, published 1991.\nBLACK DETROIT AND THE GREAT MIGRATION\n\nSince Norf is up\,\nAn’ Souf is down\,\nAn’ Hebben is up\,\nI’m upward boun’.*\nThey came to Detroit by the thousands from Georgia\, Alabama\, Tennessee\, South Caroline and they stayed. They were part of what historians characterize as a watershed in African American History-the Great Migration. From 1910 to 1930\, hundreds of thousands of Blacks headed North\, leaving the South because of economic hardship\, poor educational opportunities\, and enticed by the lure of better jobs in northern industries and more freedom. Cites in the industrial Northeast and Midwest experienced astounding increases in their Black populations\, but few more so that Detroit\, its institutions and its cultures\, took shape and developed. The problems encountered by the migrants in the form of discrimination and racial animosity were problems with which the city would grapple throughout the decades to follow.\n\nThis exhibit focused on the two major concerns of the migrants\, housing and jobs\, and on the attempts made by various organizations in adjusting to life in Detroit. It is primarily compiled from the holding s of the University of Michigan’s Bentley Historical Library\, particularly the rich collection of the Detroit Urban League. It is also drawn from the Collections of the Detroit Public Library\, the Walter Reuther Collection of the Detroit Public Library\, the Walter Reuther Collection of Labor History and Urban Affairs (Wayne State University)\, the Collections of the Henry Ford Museum and Greenfield Village\, the Detroit News\, and tge Second Baptist Church of Detroit\, Michigan. The exhibit was prepared by Christine Weideman and Karen Jania\, staff members of the Bentley Historical Library.\n\n*From the poem\, “Northboun’” by Lucy Ariel Williams\, printed in Opportunity “: a Journal of Negro Life\, June 1926. The journal was a publication of the National Urban League.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Victors for Art: Michigan's Alumni Collectors–Part I: Figuration
DESCRIPTION:Commemorating the University of Michigan’s 2017 Bicentennial\, Victors for Art: Michigan’s Alumni Collectors celebrates the deep impact of Michigan alumni in the global art world. This two-part exhibition (Part I: Figuration followed by Part II: Abstraction on view July 1– October 29) presents works collected by a diverse group of alumni that represent the breadth of the University and over seventy years of graduating classes. The works themselves are equally diverse\, ranging from ancient sculptures to contemporary multimedia works. Part I: Figuration features works by Henri Matisse\, Elizabeth Louise Vigée Le Brun\, Mark Tansey\, and Mickalene Thomas\, among others\, and allows visitors to explore the variety of artistic responses and purposes encompassed by the term “figuration”. It also offers an unprecedented opportunity to view art that may have never been publicly displayed otherwise—and most certainly\, not all together. For visitors\, and especially for future Michigan alumni\, Victors for Art illuminates the shared passion for art fostered by the Michigan experience.\n\nThis exhibition was organized by Joseph Rosa\, Guest Curator\, in collaboration with Laura De Becker\, Helmut & Candis Stern Associate Curator of African Art\, Jennifer Friess\, Assistant Curator of Photography\, Lehti Mairike Keelman\, Assistant Curator of Western Art\, and Natsu Oyobe\, Curator of Asian Art.\n\nLead support for Victors for the Arts: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the President\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Buromoscow: Scales of Operation
DESCRIPTION:In conjunction with the International Institute at the University of Michigan\, the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design is a proud co-sponsor of two lectures on Russian Architecture\, Design\, and Urbanism. Co-organized by Stamps School Associate Professor Irina Aristarkhova\, the lectures will take place on Tuesday\, April 4 and Wednesday\, April 5 in the Art & Architecture Auditorium.\n\nBuromoscow: Scales of Operation \nSpeakers: Olga Aleksakova & Julia Burdova\nWednesday\, April 5\, 6-8 pm\nArt & Architecture Auditorium \nRoom 2104\, Art & Architecture Building\, 2000 Bonisteel Blvd\n\nRussian architecture and planning reality is undergoing meaningful changes that are rarely noticed and discussed within the common architectural agenda. In the 25 years of market economy\, a new generation of architects and planners emerged in Russia. The rigid soviet planning system is slowly giving way to participatory models. Public space became a topic of heated public discussion and generous cityinvestment sector. Millions of square meters of housing have been built\, testing to the limit the soviet traditional prefabrication model. The microrayon heritage has been explored and re-evaluated. Julia Burdova and Olga Aleksakova\, partners at Buromoscow\, will talk about changes happening in Russia with the examples of their work.\n\nOlga Aleksakova\, Dipl ing\, CMA\, SBR. Graduated from TU Delft in 1998. From 1998 till 2004 she worked in OMA Rottedam. Founded Buromoscow in 2004. Julia Burdova\, Arch\, CMA. Graduated from MARCHI faculty of Urban Planning in 1997.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HET Brown Bag Seminar | Linearity of Holographic Entanglement Entropy
DESCRIPTION:We consider the question of whether the leading contribution to the entanglement entropy in holographic CFTs is truly given by the expectation value of a linear operator as is suggested by the Ryu-Takayanagi formula. We investigate this property by computing the entanglement entropy\, via the replica trick\, in states dual to superpositions of macroscopically distinct geometries and find it consistent with evaluating the expectation value of the area operator within such states. However\, we find that this fails once the number of semi-classical states in the superposition grows exponentially in the central charge of the CFT. Moreover\, in certain such scenarios we find that the choice of surface on which to evaluate the area operator depends on the density matrix of the entire CFT. This nonlinearity is enforced in the bulk via the homology prescription of Ryu-Takayanagi. We thus conclude that the homology constraint is not a linear property in the CFT.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LRCCS Occasional Lecture Series | The Shenzhen Condition: An Anthropology of the Intercultural
DESCRIPTION:Shenzhen names an inherited condition. Simultaneously geopolitical and inter-cultural\, innovative and oppressive\, adaptable\, whimsical\, provisional\, and scary global in its pretensions and reach\, Shenzhen follows on piracy\, colonial expansion\, international socialism\, the rise of the East Asian Tigers\, the Cold War\, and the era of Reform and Opening. Shenzhen is also excruciatingly banal\, suffusing everyday life and ordinary minds with a sense that suddenly\, abruptly\, and even unexpectedly we’re all living intercultural lives\, but not the same intercultural lives\, and certainly not with the same values\, or if with the same values not exactly with the same valuation of those values. This talk thinks about how we’ve been blindsided by globalization. \n\nMary Ann O'Donnell is an independent artist-ethnographer and co-founder of the Handshake 302 Art Space in Baishizhou\, Shenzhen’s most iconic urban village.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Financial/Actuarial Mathematics
DESCRIPTION:We propose a notion of viscosity solutions for a class of fully nonlinear first-order path-dependent PDEs on Hilbert space. Under this notion\, we prove uniqueness\, existence\, and stability for our equations. As an application\, we study optimal control problems and differential games associated to nonlinear evolution equations with locally monotone and coercive operators\, which were introduced by Liu (2011) and Liu and Rockner (2013). In particular\, p-Laplace equations\, 2D Navier-Stokes equations\, tamed 3D Navier-Stokes equations\, and power fluid laws can be dealt with in this framework. Currently\, our theory has in its scope no counterpart in the non-path-dependent case.\n\nJoint work with Erhan Bayraktar. Speaker(s): Christian Keller (UM)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:RTG Seminar on Geometry\, Dynamics and Topology
DESCRIPTION:In this talk we will show that many projective Anosov representations act convex cocompactly on some properly convex domain in real projective space. In particular\, if a non-elementary word hyperbolic group is not commensurable to a non-trivial free product or the fundamental group of a closed hyperbolic surface\, then then any projective Anosov representation of that group acts convex cocompactly on some properly convex domain in real projective space. We also show that if a projective Anosov representation preserves a properly convex domain\, then it acts convex cocompactly on some (possibly different) properly convex domain. We will then use these constructions to show that Anosov representations in general semisimple Lie groups can be defined in terms of the existence of a convex cocompact action on a properly convex domain in some real projective space (which depends on the semisimple Lie group and parabolic subgroup). This talk should be very accessible. Speaker(s): Andrew Zimmer (University of Chicago)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Better Angels: Queer Lives and Intimacies on Campus\, 1900-1960
DESCRIPTION:How can we recreate and make meaning of the experiences of queer-identified University of Michigan students during the first half of the twentieth century?  This panel addresses this question by exploring key moments and figures in U-M’s queer history during the years spanning 1900-1960. By unraveling the moments in which queer experiences became public and by tracing the networks and movements of key figures\, such as U-M graduate Forman Brown (who published his 1933 gay coming-of-age novel Better Angel under the pseudonym Richard Meeker)\, this panel works towards determining the reach and scope of U-M’s early twentieth-century queer histories. Featuring Cassius Adair\, Alex Chow\, and David Hutchinson.\n\nThis LSA Bicentennial Theme Semester event is presented with support from the College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office. Additional support provided by the Department of History and the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Department Colloquium | Digging Into the Large Scale Structure: From the Galaxies to the Cosmic Web
DESCRIPTION:Galaxy spectroscopic surveys provide the means to map out this cosmic large-scale structure in three dimensions\, furnishing a cornerstone of observational cosmology. The information is given in the form of galaxy locations\, and is typically condensed into a single function of scale\, such as the galaxy correlation function or power-spectrum. However\, galaxy correlation functions are not the only information those surveys provide. One of the most striking features of N-body simulations is the network of filaments into which dark matter particles arrange themselves. We however traditionally only use the information contained in the positions of the galaxies\, and in some occasions\, we look at other cosmic structures of the Universe such as voids. In this colloquium\, I explore the information beyond the galaxy positions in large sky surveys combining novel ideas with recent techniques in statistical methods and machine learning algorithms. In particular\, we will investigate the following two topics: the \"cosmic web\" that are mostly ignored in any large scale structure analyses in the Universe and how it affects the surrounding galaxies\; and \"likelihood free analysis\" with machine learning.

SUMMARY:Other:Effective Chemical and Enzymatic Methods to Globally Characterize Protein Glycosylation
DESCRIPTION:Protein glycosylation is ubiquitous in biological systems and essential for cell survival. Aberrant protein glycosylation is directly related to human disease\, including cancer and infectious diseases\, and glycoproteins contain a wealth of information related to developmental and disease statuses of cells. However\, due to the low abundance of many glycoproteins and heterogeneity of glycans\, it is extraordinarily challenging to comprehensively analyze glycoproteins in complex biological samples. Based on the common features of glycans\, we have developed chemical and enzymatic methods to globally analyze protein glycosylation by mass spectrometry (MS). Glycoproteins located on the cell surface are especially interesting because they frequently regulate extracellular events. We specifically tagged surface glycoproteins for global and site-specific analysis. In combination with multiplexed proteomics\, we quantified the dynamics of surface glycoproteins and measured their half-lives. Global analysis of protein glycosylation leads to a better understanding of glycoprotein functions and the identification of glycoproteins as disease biomarkers and drug targets.\nRonghu Wu (Georgia Institute of Technology)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Financial/Actuarial Mathematics
DESCRIPTION:We consider a market of a given vector of securities and finitely many financial agents\, who are heterogeneous with respect to their risky endowments and risk aversions. The market is assumed to be thin\, meaning that each agent's actions could heavily influence the price and allocation of the securities. We propose a market model where agents strategically choose the risk aversion that they will implement in the trading. In this environment\, equilibrium is modelled as the outcome of a Nash-type game (in the spirit of Kyle\, 1989)\, where the agents' sets of strategic choices are the demand functions on the tradeable securities.  \n\nUnder standard assumptions\, we first show that the agents have motive to declare different risk aversions than their true ones\, and in particular\, when the correlation between an agent's endowment and the market risk is low (resp. high)\, the agent tends to behave in a more (resp. less) risk averse manner. The Nash equilibrium is then characterized as a solution to a system of quadratic equations\, which is shown to have a unique solution under some mild additional assumptions. \n\nInterestingly enough\, it is shown that agents with higher exposure to market risk and/or sufficiently low (true) risk aversion profit more from the Nash equilibrium as compared to the Arrow-Debreu one (i.e.\, with no strategic behavior). Finally\, we connect the findings of this work to similar results provided in recently established models where agents strategically choose their reported beliefs and their submitted risk exposures. \n\nThis is joint work with C. Kardaras (LSE) and G. Vichos (LSE).\n\n Speaker(s): Michalis Anthropelos (University of Piraeus)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Macroeconomics
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\n\nWe argue that political distribution risk is an important driver of aggregate fluctuations. To that end\, we document signicant changes in the capital share after large political events\, such as the end of dictatorships\, political realignments\, or modications in collective bargaining rules in a sample of developed and emerging economies. These policy changes are often associated with significant fluctuations in output and asset prices. We also show\, using a Bayesian Proxy-VAR estimated with U.S. data\, how distribution shocks cause movements in output\, unemployment\, and asset pricing. To quantify the importance of these political shocks for the U.S.\, we extend an otherwise standard neoclassical growth model. We model political shocks as exogenous changes in the bargaining power of workers in a labor market with search and matching. We calibrate the model to the U.S. corporate non-nancial business sector. A one-standard deviation redistribution shock reduces the capital share 0.2% on impact and leads to a drop in output of 0.6%. Also\, political distribution risk accounts for 35 to 45% of output volatility and 15 to 25% of the observed volatility of U.S. gross capital shares\, depending on the elasticity of substitution between capital and labor. Eliminating political redistribution risk in the U.S. would raise the welfare of the representative household by 1.6% of steady-state consumption.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Nam Center Colloquium Series | You are What You Eat: The Practice of Obtaining and Maintaining Nationalist Identity
DESCRIPTION:Co-sponsored by the Department of Political Science and Political Scientists of Color (PSOC).\n\nWhat does it mean to treat nationalism as if it were a commodity that can be consumed and (re-)produced on the marketplace? This presentation starts with a short yet instructive tale of Monosodium Glutamate or MSG: despite the discovery of the substance by a Japanese chemist in 1908\, it was actually the commodification of Chinese nationalism through MSG by patriotic capitalists in China that\, to this day\, makes the average consumer associate the flavor enhancer with China rather than Japan. This sets the stage for not only introducing the idea of consuming (and producing) identity\, but also what it means to conceive of nationalism as a practice or a sustained process rather than a singular emotion or feeling. By introducing some of the commodification activities surrounding the territorial disputes among countries in Northeast Asia—both in terms of consumables and non-consumables—this presentation will showcase the close connection between politics and economics\, and also challenge some of the traditional assumptions behind nationalism. \n    \nJiun Bang is a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Nam Center for Korean Studies at the University of Michigan. Her doctoral project examined the ‘business of nationalism’ and explained how the process of commodification undertaken by various actors within the nation-state influences bilateral inter-state tensions. From 2008 to 2010\, she was an associate at the Korea Institute for Defense Analyses (KIDA)\, a government-affiliated research institute in Seoul. During that time\, she was the assistant editor of the Korean Journal of Defense Analysis. She received her PhD from the University of Southern California in 2016\, an MA in Security Studies from Georgetown University\, and a BA in International Relations from Ewha Womans University in Seoul\, her hometown.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:From Diasporic Hebrew to World Hebrew: on the Theoretical Evolution of a 21st-Century Hebrew Journal in Ashkenaz
DESCRIPTION:Tal Hever-Chybowski\, editor of Mikan Ve’eylakh: Journal for Diasporic Hebrew (Berlin and Paris)\, will discuss the theoretical evolution behind this annual journal\, whose first issue was published in June 2016. He will talk about the theoretical\, historical and symbolic premises of the project from its beginning eight years ago\, and pay particular attention to the transformation of these ideas over time. The lecture will address conceptual problems of defining ‘diasporic Hebrew.’ Namely\, it will be inquired whether ‘diasopric Hebrew’ can be defined in positive terms\, or must rather rely\, conceptually\, on the existence of a ‘non-‘ or an ‘anti-Diasporic Hebrew’. More practically\, the lecture will explore what it means to write Hebrew “diasporically”\, also from a linguistic point of view. Finally\, Hever-Chybowski will expose the ways in which the concept of “World Hebrew” may offer new theoretical possibilites by adding temporality to the spatial definition of ‘Diasporic Hebrew’. The lecture will conclude with a sketch of further theoretical developments regarding Hebrew and Diaspora\, which are planned for the upcoming issue (June 2017).

It analyzes Pelevin’s representation of the human and the social collective a) in biomorphic and zoomorphic terms b) in terms of machinery. Both scenarios\, animalistic and mechanistic\, allow the writer to explore his core problematic—that of (un)freedom in contemporaneity.\n___\n\nThis will be a colloquium in our usual format\, starting with a light supper followed \nby the presentation and open-ended discussion​ in 3308 MLB.​\n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please email slavic@umich.edu or call 734-764-5355 by 3/31/2017.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Inside the Private World of the White House: From the Staffers Who Serve the First Families to the First Ladies Who Run the White House
DESCRIPTION:Join us as Kate Andersen Brower explores the lives of some of the people who surround the President of the United States: the first lady who has stood by his side\, and the countless people who work to keep the White House running. \n \nBrower is the New York Times bestselling author of “The Residence: Inside the Private World of the White House” and “First Women: The Grace and Power of America’s Modern First Ladies.” \n\nEach of Brower’s books examines a different aspect of the public and private world of the White House. In her book “The Residence” she interviewed scores of former maids\, butlers\, cooks\, and ushers who worked at the White House and who see sides of the first family no one else ever glimpses. “The Residence” marks the first time that so many have shared what it’s like to devote their lives to caring for the first family.\n\nIn “First Women” Brower used interviews with three former first ladies\, along with the children\, friends\, and social secretaries of the modern first ladies to explore one of the most under-estimated and challenging jobs in the world. From Jackie Kennedy to Michelle Obama she considered the first lady’s intimidating job assignment: to be an inspiring leader with a forward-thinking agenda of her own\; to be a savvy politician skilled at navigating the treacherous rapids of Washington\; and to be a wife and mother operating under constant scrutiny.\n\nFree Admission. Free Parking. Book sales/signing and reception follow program.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Banner Moments: The National Anthem in American Life
DESCRIPTION:The new Ford Presidential Library lobby exhibit\, curated by University of Michigan musicologist Mark Clague\, illustrates through interpretive panels\, historical documents and photographs\, the cultural 200-year history of “The Star-Spangled Banner” (1814–2014). The tale that emerges demonstrates the power of music and poetry to spark the social imagination and thus create a sense of shared community.\n\nInspired by the successful defense of Baltimore\, Maryland from British attack in September 1814\, lawyer and amateur poet Francis Scott Key penned his now famous lyric. Rather than extraordinary\, Key’s creative impulse was typical of early America’s broadside ballad tradition in which new words were written to fit well known tunes. The result\, however\, was far from everyday—Key could not have predicted that his song would survive the moment\, yet become his nation’s singular anthem.\n\nFollow the “The Star-Spangled Banner” from the moments leading up to September 14\, 1814 through the present day and explore the social history of our national song.\nMarch 2017 to September 2017 \n\nMonday - Friday. 8:45 am - 4:45 pm\nClosed all Federal holidays.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Another Country
DESCRIPTION:The scenes in Another Country emerge from daily images of conflict and uprising. Discarded shoes\, tarps and handmade signs that mark the post-industrial landscape become part roadside memorial and part doomsday prophecy. These temporary sculptures - set against the backdrop of environmental decline - evoke a cautionary tale of hazmat crews and oil soaked shorelines. \n\nIf there is a place for both apathy and active resistance in the way forward to a better future\, Another Country carries the tension that’s in-between. Inspired by the visual resistance of liberation parties\, past and present\, it urges us to remember why we fight.\n\nShanna Merola is an artist\, activist\, and documentary photographer. Working for civil rights attorneys\, she photographs first amendment activity at protests and facilitates workshops on best practices during police encounters. Over the past five years she has been a human rights observer for social justice movements across the country - from the deeply embattled struggle over water rights in Detroit and Flint\, Michigan - to the frontlines of uprisings in Ferguson\, MO and Standing Rock\, ND. Her collages and constructed landscapes are informed by these rallies - from direct actions against fracking companies to the privatization of water both globally and locally. She is currently working on a collaborative production of Know Your Rights Theatre\, inspired by the politically radical puppet troupes of the 1960’s.\n\nMerola received an MFA in Photography from Cranbrook Academy of Art and a BFA in Photo and Film from Virginia Commonwealth University. She lives and works in Detroit\, Michigan.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Here and There
DESCRIPTION:\"Here and There\"  looks at the problems of extreme poverty\, and includes artist Tracey Snelling's signature piece \"One Thousand Shacks.\" New works--created on campus during her three-week residency--will examine these issues in the US\, how they relate to location and\, at times\, the disenfranchisement of large groups of people for the sake of big business\, political clout\, and power. \n\nCurator's Statement:\n\nTo meet artist Tracey Snelling evokes the sensation of a strong willed breeze determined to open a backyard door. \n\nAs an artist and person\, she is down to earth\, direct\, contemporary\, and moving through it all with volition. \n\nSnelling’s artistic practice originally focused on photography as a medium\, but soon evolved to include her construction of sculptures based upon cities and towns\, strip malls and urban housing. \n\nShe refers to her three dimensional work as sculptural rather than diorama or model making because she isn’t particularly interested in the exact rendering of location\, or the contextualization of place. Instead\, she taps into the energy of community and its humanness—restless\, frenetic\, din\, a choir\, extending beyond the confines of walls. \n\nSnelling’s representations are neither judgmental nor opportunistic. They unaffectedly and objectively offer a multidimensional sketch of a place in time\, how we occupy space. \n\nHer signature piece \"One Thousand Shacks\" (included in this exhibition along with new work created during her her residency here) pushes up against the challenges of economic inequalities\, racial biases\, and imposed class divisions that often limit the options available to so many people. Concurrently\, the installation embraces our everyday existence expressed through Snelling’s exuberant palette\, bold graphics\, video and neon. \n\nConceptually\, Snelling’s stacking method first creates an exalted “big picture” with a myriad of colors\, image\, text\, sound and light. The counterpoint in scale soon immerses the viewer into each small world. With this shift\, the onlooker becomes the active participant\, the occupant in situ\, adding the trappings of their own experiences to each tableau. It is this shift that forces the viewer into a new way of seeing from varying perspectives.\n\nOn the one hand\, the artist’s sculptures allude to our desire for refuge\, a private domain that allows us to be ourselves. On the other\, the overall composition reaffirms it is imperative that we co-exist with one another respectfully\, forge relationships\, understanding our marked differences. It is diversity—the unique and often disparate combination of things\, the cacophony of it all\, that activates communities and public space.\n\nSnelling’s constructions literally build a way out\, one on top of another\, charged with the undercurrent of the way we live. They emphasize our universal longing to find a place called home\, and be accepted\, built on the foundation of one and of many. \n–Amanda Krugliak\, Arts Curator\, Institute for the Humanities\n\nAbout Tracey Snelling:\nThrough the use of sculpture\, photography\, video\, and large-scale installation\, Tracey Snelling gives her impression of a place\, its people and their experience. Often\, the cinematic image stands in for real life as it plays out behind windows in the buildings\, sometimes creating a sense of mystery\, other times stressing the mundane. Snelling’s work derives from voyeurism\, film noir\, and geographical and architectural location. Within this idea of location\, themes develop that transport observation into the realm of storytelling\, with reality and sociological study being the focus. Snelling had exhibited in international galleries\, museums and institutions\, including the The Royal Museum of Fine Arts\, Belgium\; Palazzo Reale\, Milan\; Museum of Arts and Design\, New York\; Kunstmuseen Krefeld Germany\; El Museo de Arte de Banco de la Republica\, Bogota\; the Stenersen Museet\, Oslo\, and the Sundance Film Festival. Her short films have screened at the San Francisco International Film Festival\, the Thessaloniki International Film Festival\, Circuito Off in Venice\, Italy\, and the Arquiteturas Film Festival Lisboa in Portugal. She also received a 2015 Joan Mitchell Painters and Sculptors Grant. Snelling lives and works in Oakland\, California and Berlin\, Germany.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Chicana Fotos: Nancy De Los Santos
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition Dates: Friday\, February 17 - April 14\, 2017\nOpening Reception: Friday\, February 17\, 2017 from 4 - 7 pm\, featuring a performance by Ballet Folklórico De Detroit at 6 pm.\nGallery Talk by Nancy De Los Santos and exhibition curator Maria Cotera: Friday\, February 17\, 2017 at 12 pm\, Walter P. Reuther Library Woodcock Conference Room\nWalter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University\n5401 Cass Ave\, Detroit\, MI 48202\n\nBorn and raised in Chicago by Mexican-American parents\, Nancy De Los Santos is an accomplished filmmaker and proud “Chicana from Chicago” who has dedicated her life and career to rewriting and redefining the image of Latina/os in the mainstream media. Among her most celebrated works are as Co-Writer and Co-Producer of The Bronze Screen: 100 Years of the Latin Image in Hollywood Cinema\, with Susan Racho and Alberto Dominguez\, and as Associate Producer on the feature film Selena.\n\nIn Chicana Fotos\, an exhibit of evocative photographs taken in the 1970s\, we meet a very different Nancy: a woman armed with a camera\, capturing historic events in the struggles for social justice of the time. Nancy’s photographs of Chicano Movement marches and rallies\, farmworker mobilizations in Chicago and Texas\, and Latina organizing in the Midwest and internationally offer a priceless documentary view of Latina/o politics in the 1970s. Her more intimate pictures of everyday Latina/o life capture what it was like to live through a period of radical social transformation. The exhibit includes rare photographs of UFW organizing activities in Chicago\, the Texas Farmworker Pilgrimage of 1977\, and the first ever International Women’s Year Conference in Mexico City in 1975. These images are supplemented by never before exhibited documents from the Walter P. Reuther UFW Collection.\n\nChicana Fotos was curated by University of Michigan professor Maria Cotera (with assistance from Pau Nava) and designed by students and faculty of the UM Stamps School of Art & Design. Stamps School faculty Hannah Smotrich and Katie Rubin co-taught the collaborative\, interdisciplinary Exhibition Design class with students Ian Crowley\, Rachel Dawson\, Emilie Farrugia\, Kelsi Franzino\, Andrew Han\, Jack Hyland\, Maggie Lemak\, Megan Lewin-Smith\, Katie Mongoven\, Olivia Moore\, Pau Nava\, and Sarah Wolf.\n\nChicana Fotos is a collaboration between the El Museo del Norte\, the Chicana por mi Raza Digital Archive\, the Stamps School of Art & Design and the Walter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University.\n\nThe Walter P. Reuther Library of Labor and Urban Affairs at Wayne State University is the largest labor archive in North America. In addition to internationally significant collections on the history of the North American labor movement\, the Reuther Library holds the official records of Wayne State University\, as well as extensive records documenting urban affairs\, civic life\, civil rights\, ethnic and religious organizations\, and community development across Southeast Michigan.\n\nChicana Fotos was made possible through the generous financial support of the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative and the Stamps School of Art & Design. Gallery talk sponsored by the Center for Latina/o and Latin American Studies\, Wayne State University\, and the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:FREEDOM? — THE 13TH AMENDMENT 150 YEARS LATER
DESCRIPTION:Peter Hammer is director of the Damon J. Keith Center for Civil Rights. The Keith Center is dedicated to promoting the educational\, economic\, and political empowerment of under-represented communities in urban areas and to ensuring that the phrase “equal justice under law” applies to all members of society. Hammer has become a leading voice on the economic and social issues impacting the city of Detroit.\n\nThe legacy of slavery is central to the history of African Americans.  Institutions like slavery do not end—they mutate and transform themselves. The 
process involves a dynamic interaction between “belief systems” and “institutions.” This transformation has moved from slavery to Jim Crow segregation to the forms of “spatial racism” that define Southeast Michigan. \n\nThis is the first of a six-lecture series. The subject is The African American  Experience.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Constructing Gender
DESCRIPTION:Ask U-M students\, alumni\, or fans what symbolizes the University of Michigan\, and you’ll likely hear the Big House\, the Diag\, along with the Michigan Union and the Michigan League. Since they officially opened in 1919 and 1929\, respectively\, the Union and League have been destinations for generations of Wolverines yet few know the rich history of the buildings’ origins or about the architects who brought them both to life: brothers and U-M alums Irving K. and Allen Pond.\n\nThe exhibition\, organized in celebration of the University of Michigan’s bicentennial in 2017\, illuminates the architecture and bustling student life of these iconic buildings using original drawings\, renderings\, photographs\, color studies\, and even dance cards from the Bentley Historical Library\, which serves as the University of Michigan archives. These fascinating documents reveal how the buildings were conceived\, constructed\, and first occupied by students and alumni. Guest curated by Nancy Bartlett of the Bentley Historical Library\, the exhibition reveals how the Ponds meticulously conceived and constructed the two clubs—one for men\, one for women—by weaving ideas about gender and society into the very fabric of the buildings themselves.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run
DESCRIPTION:In 2013\, artist Ernestine Ruben (BSDEs ’53) photographed the once-famed industrial complex Willow Run in Washtenaw County\, Michigan. Designed by her grandfather\, Detroit architect Albert Kahn\, for the Ford Motor Company\, Willow Run was an exemplar of American defense manufacturing because of its efficient mass-production of B-24 Liberators during World War II.\n\nFor this exhibition\, Ruben overlaid interior views of the now-dormant factory with imagined glimpses into her body’s interior landscape. The resulting compositions seem to breathe energy and light into the stagnant and cavernous spaces of Willow Run and suggest a longing for a productive existence undeterred by mortality for both Willow Run and the artist. Her grandfather’s role in the history of the site underscores Ruben’s personal connection.\n\nThe exhibition presents Ruben’s photographs of Willow Run in UMMA’s Photography Gallery and an original film—co-created by Ruben and video artist Seth Bernstein and featuring an original score by award-winning composer Stephen Hartke—in the Museum’s Forum.\n\nLead support for Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run: Mobilizing Memory is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the Herbert W. and Susan L.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:GOIN’ NORTH: BLACK DETROIT  AND THE  GREAT MIGRATION\,  1910-1930
DESCRIPTION:Summary: \nExhibit of photographs and documents produced by the Michigan Historical Collections in Commemoration of Martin Luther King\, Jr. Day at the University of Michigan\, published 1991.\nBLACK DETROIT AND THE GREAT MIGRATION\n\nSince Norf is up\,\nAn’ Souf is down\,\nAn’ Hebben is up\,\nI’m upward boun’.*\nThey came to Detroit by the thousands from Georgia\, Alabama\, Tennessee\, South Caroline and they stayed. They were part of what historians characterize as a watershed in African American History-the Great Migration. From 1910 to 1930\, hundreds of thousands of Blacks headed North\, leaving the South because of economic hardship\, poor educational opportunities\, and enticed by the lure of better jobs in northern industries and more freedom. Cites in the industrial Northeast and Midwest experienced astounding increases in their Black populations\, but few more so that Detroit\, its institutions and its cultures\, took shape and developed. The problems encountered by the migrants in the form of discrimination and racial animosity were problems with which the city would grapple throughout the decades to follow.\n\nThis exhibit focused on the two major concerns of the migrants\, housing and jobs\, and on the attempts made by various organizations in adjusting to life in Detroit.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Victors for Art: Michigan's Alumni Collectors–Part I: Figuration
DESCRIPTION:Commemorating the University of Michigan’s 2017 Bicentennial\, Victors for Art: Michigan’s Alumni Collectors celebrates the deep impact of Michigan alumni in the global art world. This two-part exhibition (Part I: Figuration followed by Part II: Abstraction on view July 1– October 29) presents works collected by a diverse group of alumni that represent the breadth of the University and over seventy years of graduating classes. The works themselves are equally diverse\, ranging from ancient sculptures to contemporary multimedia works. Part I: Figuration features works by Henri Matisse\, Elizabeth Louise Vigée Le Brun\, Mark Tansey\, and Mickalene Thomas\, among others\, and allows visitors to explore the variety of artistic responses and purposes encompassed by the term “figuration”. It also offers an unprecedented opportunity to view art that may have never been publicly displayed otherwise—and most certainly\, not all together. For visitors\, and especially for future Michigan alumni\, Victors for Art illuminates the shared passion for art fostered by the Michigan experience.\n\nThis exhibition was organized by Joseph Rosa\, Guest Curator\, in collaboration with Laura De Becker\, Helmut & Candis Stern Associate Curator of African Art\, Jennifer Friess\, Assistant Curator of Photography\, Lehti Mairike Keelman\, Assistant Curator of Western Art\, and Natsu Oyobe\, Curator of Asian Art.\n\nLead support for Victors for the Arts: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the President\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CJS Noon Lecture Series | Thirty-Six Views of the Eiffel Tower
DESCRIPTION:Professor Bush's current project\, The Floating World\, proposes a revisionist history of japonisme as not only an exoticist representation of Old Japan but also an aesthetic of self-representation informed by\, precisely\, Japanese modernization. He reframes European aesthetic uses of Japan—some familiar\, some now obscure—as part of a global response to the prospect of a non-European modernity and its consequences for “the world.” This talk will provide an overview of the book with detailed discussions of Henri Rivière’s print series Thirty-Six Views of the Eiffel Tower (1902)\, Paul-Louis Couchoud’s Sages and Poets of Asia (1916)\, and Wim Wenders’s film Tokyo-ga (1985). \n    \nChristopher Bush is associate professor of French at Northwestern University\, were he co-directs Global Avant-garde and Modernist Studies and co-edits Modernism/modernity. His books include Ideographic Modernism: China\, Writing\, Media (Oxford\, 2010)\, The Floating World: Japoniste Aesthetics and Global Modernity (Columbia\, under contract) and several planned projects on the historical avant-gardes.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Collaborative Approaches to the Archaeology of Political Violence: Rethinking the Caste War of Yucatan (1847-1901)
DESCRIPTION:Conflict archaeology\, which often focuses on a particular event of violent conflict or type of conflict-related site\, would benefit from a theoretical and epistemological reorientation to the study of political violence. In this talk\, Tiffany Cain defines political violence as the intersection of violent conflict with structural violence that creates conditions where different mechanisms of violence – both overt and covert – are at work\, producing multiscalar material signatures that archaeologists would be apt to identify and unscramble. She builds on this by arguing for the interpretive value of civilian landscapes regarding past violence. These landscapes overlay violent conflict where structures of political and socioeconomic inequality and oppression have already embedded themselves. How does political violence impact civilian spaces and how can we rethink its consequences for everyday life? In this talk\, she will present the preliminary findings of a collaborative heritage program\, the Tihosuco Heritage Preservation and Community Development Project\, that explores the postconflict landscapes of Quintana Roo\, Mexico.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Analysis/Probability Learning Seminar
DESCRIPTION:The stochastic localization technique was first used by Eldan in 2012 to show that the optimal constants (with respect to the dimension) in the thin shell conjecture\, and the conjecture by Kannan\, Lovasz\, and Simonovits (KLS) are equivalent up to logarithmic factors. Since then\, it has also found other applications in convex geometry and probability. In particular\, Lee and Vempala used it to improve the best known constant in the KLS conjecture.\n\nIn this talk\, I will provide brief background on the KLS conjecture and some related conjectures. Then I will describe the stochastic localization scheme of Eldan and explain its main properties. Speaker(s): Alon Nishry (University of Michigan)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Economic Development
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\n\nIn 2009 and 2010\, China undertook a fiscal stimulus program worth 4 trillion yuan\, roughly equivalent to 11 percent of its annual GDP. This program was largely financed by off-balance-sheet companies—known as local financing vehicles—that both borrowed and spent on behalf of local governments. These companies have continued to grow since the stimulus program concluded at the end of 2010\; their spending has accounted for roughly 10 percent of GDP each year\, with an increasing share used for what are essentially commercial projects. And their spending has likely been responsible for an increase of 5 percentage points in the aggregate investment rate and for part of the decline of 7 to 8 percentage points in the current account surplus since 2008. We argue that local governments have used their new access to financial resources to facilitate favored businesses’ access to capital\, which potentially worsens the overall efficiency of capital allocation. The long-run effect of offbalance-sheet spending by local governments may be a permanent decline in the growth rate of aggregate productivity and GDP.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Thursday Seminar: Molecular evolutionary genetics of the “two rules of speciation” in Drosophila
DESCRIPTION:Speciation involves the gradual evolution of reproductive incompatibilities— including prezygotic incompatibilities that prevent the formation of species hybrids and intrinsic postzygotic genetic incompatibilities that render hybrids sterile or inviable. Two strong “rules of speciation” implicate a special role for sex chromosomes in the evolution of postzygotic genetic incompatibilities: Haldane’s rule\, the observation that hybrids of the heterogametic (XY or ZW) sex preferentially suffer hybrid sterility and inviability\; and the large X-effect\, the observation that the X chromosome has a disproportionately large effect on hybrid sterility. Despite decades of effort\, why the X chromosome plays a special role in speciation remains unclear. I will present results from our integrated genetic and genomic studies of speciation among the three closely related species of the Drosophila simulans species complex— D. simulans\, D. sechellia\, and D. mauritiana. Our high-resolution genetic mapping studies\, speciation genomics analyses\, and molecular identification of a new hybrid sterility gene enable new inferences about the molecular and evolutionary basis of the large X-effect and its consequences for speciation.\n \nLight refreshments served at 4 p.m.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Faeth Memorial Lecture | Data-Enabled Design for Combustion Dynamics in Propulsion Engines
DESCRIPTION:This lecture will address a multi-fidelity modeling strategy to facilitate data-enabled design of combustion devices for propulsion engines. As a specific example\, the issue of combustion instability (unsteady flow motions in combustion chambers) will be discussed. An interdisciplinary research program is under way\, focused on the development of an efficient and robust capability to understand\, analyze\, and predict combustion dynamics in contemporary and future propulsion systems. This effort involves work in supercritical combustion\, combustion instability\, reduced-basis modeling (emulation)\, statistics\, uncertainty quantification\, and machine learning. Recent breakthroughs in modeling and data analytics techniques have been utilized to substantially improve the modeling capabilities at all levels. New techniques address issues specific to physics extraction and design evaluation of complex systems\, such as rocket and gas turbine engines. This research will enable effective and efficient (practical time-scale) surveys of all known parameters\, including design attributes and operating conditions\, and their effects on system stability behavior. The integrated approach described here starts with large eddy simulation (LES)-based high fidelity modeling and simulations of combustion dynamics in engines. Reduced-basis models and emulation then leverage the database established by the LES for physics-based data assimilation. Stochastic-based extraction of physics from complex flowfields provides faithful and interpretable representations of the underlying mechanisms. Feature extraction techniques are incorporated into a spatio-temporal surrogate model built on machine-learning techniques such as Gaussian process (GP) regression. Combined with statistical methodologies and control theories\, these techniques allow for an efficient survey of flow evolution and combustion dynamics\, with special attention to the identification of combustion response and gasdynamic driving mechanisms. Data-driven quantification of the transfer function between the identified mechanisms is achieved. Finally\, a system-level model is developed for effective and efficient assessment of the combustion stability behaviors of a practical system\, with complex geometry over a broad range of operating conditions.\n\nAbout our guest speaker...\n\nVigor Yang is the William R.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Law & Economics: A Theory of Litigation Signals
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\n\nConventional wisdom suggests that forced information-sharing procedures\, namely\, discovery proceedings\, are the only way to rectify information asymmetries between parties to a legal dispute. This Article challenges this notion. It argues that litigants can convey information indirectly\, through a variety of vehicles we call “litigation signals.” For instance\, by committing to “disarm” themselves of important preliminary claims\, litigants convey confidence to their rival. We employ a game-theoretical model to provide a comprehensive account and typology of litigation signals and to identify conditions under which different classes of signal are actually workable. A discussion on litigation signals entails wide policy implications. First\, the Article shows how litigation signals advance settlement by facilitating information flow between litigants. Second\, it sheds new light on the heated debate over discovery proceedings. Given the availability to voluntarily transmit information\, the detrimental effects of narrow discovery are more modest than they seem to be\; and the costs of broad discovery are exaggerated. Third\, the Article reveals specific litigation tactics that can be used as informative signals\, suggesting a more nuanced judicial treatment thereof. Finally\, the Article delineates procedures that courts could adopt to help parties transmit information more effectively.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:WINTER 2017 COMMUNICATION & MEDIA SPEAKER SERIES Science\, society\, and metaphors for the Anthropocene
DESCRIPTION:This presentation will examine how metaphors interweave science and society as well as their implications for environmental sustainability. I will focus on how we may assess novel metaphors proposed in the environmental sciences\, especially in this era of dramatic global change that has been contentiously called the ‘Anthropocene.’\n\nWith regards to communication\, Dr. Larson has done pioneering work in understanding how using different metaphors and frames to discuss environmental issues may shift public perceptions of the issues. His interdisciplinary approach includes both qualitative and quantitative methods. He is an interdisciplinary scholar\, educator\, and speaker who explores how conservation-minded people are adapting to the diverse\, concurrent\, and human-caused ecological changes that Earth is experiencing. He completed an undergrad in biology at U. Guelph\, a Master’s in botany at U. Toronto\, and an interdisciplinary PhD in science and society at U. California–Santa Barbara\, and he am now an Associate Professor in the School of Environment\, Resources and Sustainability (SERS) and Associate Dean – Undergraduate Studies in the Faculty of Environment at U. Waterloo\, where he advises a team of grad students and post-docs. He have been a visiting scholar at Linköping University (Sweden) and Stellenbosch University (South Africa)\, and have given nearly 120 lectures\, including 20 keynotes and invited plenary lectures\, at conferences and workshops in fifteen countries on six continents. I have published over 65 refereed journal articles and book chapters\, often in high-impact journals including BioScience\, Frontiers in Ecology and the Environment\, Global Environmental Change\, Science\, and Trends in Ecology and Evolution. In 2011 Yale University Press published my first sole-authored book\, Metaphors for Environmental Sustainability: Redefining Our Relationship with Nature\, which was awarded the 2011 Oravec Research Award by the National Communication Association. My current research focuses on stakeholder perceptions of assisted colonization and invasive species\, and it is supported by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRC) and an Early Researcher Award from the Ontario Ministry of Research and Innovation. He has served as Associate Chair of Undergraduate Studies in my department\, and on the boards of World Wildlife Fund–Canada\, Ontario Nature (as President)\, and the Invasive Species Centre (as Chair). He is currently on the editorial board of the journal Diversity and Distributions.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Algebraic Geometry
DESCRIPTION:In my work in progress on complex analytic vanishing cycles for formal schemes\, I've defined integral \"etale\" cohomology groups of a compact strictly analytic space over the field of Laurent power series with complex coefficients. These are finitely generated abelian groups provided with a quasi-unipotent action of the fundamental group of the punctured complex plane\, and they give rise to all l-adic etale cohomology groups of the space. After a short survey of this work\, I'll explain a theorem which\, in the case when the space is rig-smooth\, compares those groups and the de Rham cohomology groups of the space. The latter are provided with the Gauss-Manin connection and an additional structure which allow one to recover from them the \"etale\" cohomology groups with complex coefficients.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Relief after Hardship: The Ottoman Turkish Model for The Thousand and One Days
DESCRIPTION:The French Orientalist scholar François Pétis de la Croix\, author of the Thousand and One Days (Les Mille et un Jours\; 1710–12)\, presented his work as a translation from a Persian manuscript titled Hezār va yek ruz (A Thousand and One Days). Research has meanwhile proved beyond reasonable doubt that s allegation constitutes a wilful mystification. The direct source Pétis de la Croix exploited for the majority of tales was not Persian but rather an anonymous Ottoman Turkish manuscript titled Ferec baʿd eş-şidde (Relief after Hardship). The work\, first mentioned in Antoine Galland’s Istanbul diaries\, has been compiled before the end of the fourteenth century and undoubtedly constitutes a translation of one or several Persian works. Scholars of Persian and Ottoman studies\, such as Fritz Meier and Andreas Tietze\, have proposed a detailed discussion of the sources of Ferec baʿd eş-şidde since long\, but the detailed commentary Tietze intended to prepare on the work was never published. \nMy presentation will discuss the complicated relation between the early eighteenth-century French Mille et un Jours\, the fourteenth-century Ottoman Ferec baʿd eş-şidde\, and a genre of Persian literature that is known as Jāmeʿ al-ḥekāyāt (Compilation of Tales). Until recently\, the oldest representatives of the latter genre were known from the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. The recent discovery of a Jāmeʿ al-ḥekāyāt dating to the twelfth century opens up new perspectives on the relation of Pétis de la Croix’s text to the Ottoman Turkish and Persian texts.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:In Search of Wang Wei
DESCRIPTION:\"The Art Historical Art of Song China Workshop\" will kick off with Professor Richard Barnhart's lecture at the Michigan Union Pendleton Room. This international workshop is hosted by the Department of the History of Art in cooperation with the University of Michigan Museum of Art and the University of Michigan Confucius Institute. Click on the link here to see the full workshop schedule: http://china-art-song.hart.lsa.umich.edu/\n\nAbstract: \n\nWang Wei (701-761)\, one of China’s greatest poets\, left a legacy of ineffable poetry that is still read and admired around the world. He is also remembered as a great painter despite the fact that not a single painting by him is known to have survived and the reasons for his stature have not been identified. Seeking to recover what remains of Wang’s lost art\, and to separate it from the debased replicas of his Wangchuan compositions said to have been copied by Guo Zhongshu (and many others)\, and the archaic snowy landscape handscrolls supposedly copied by Yan Wengui and Xu Daoning\, we find it inextricably imbedded in the very origins and identity of Song landscape painting itself. The painter Wang Wei who emerges from this examination was the peer of Dong Yuan and Fan Kuan\, and as important as Li Cheng and Guan Tong in establishing the character of Song landscape painting.\n\nAbout the speaker:\n\nRichard M. Barnhart studied art history at Princeton University with Wen Fong and Shujiro Shimada\, and at Harvard University with Max Loehr. He spent most of his career teaching at Yale University and writing books and articles on Chinese art history. Since his retirement in 2000 he has lived with his wife Catherine on San Juan Island\, off the northwest coast\, and continues a lifelong dedication to the study of Song painting.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Banner Moments: The National Anthem in American Life
DESCRIPTION:The new Ford Presidential Library lobby exhibit\, curated by University of Michigan musicologist Mark Clague\, illustrates through interpretive panels\, historical documents and photographs\, the cultural 200-year history of “The Star-Spangled Banner” (1814–2014). The tale that emerges demonstrates the power of music and poetry to spark the social imagination and thus create a sense of shared community.\n\nInspired by the successful defense of Baltimore\, Maryland from British attack in September 1814\, lawyer and amateur poet Francis Scott Key penned his now famous lyric. Rather than extraordinary\, Key’s creative impulse was typical of early America’s broadside ballad tradition in which new words were written to fit well known tunes. The result\, however\, was far from everyday—Key could not have predicted that his song would survive the moment\, yet become his nation’s singular anthem.\n\nFollow the “The Star-Spangled Banner” from the moments leading up to September 14\, 1814 through the present day and explore the social history of our national song.\nMarch 2017 to September 2017 \n\nMonday - Friday. 8:45 am - 4:45 pm\nClosed all Federal holidays.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Another Country
DESCRIPTION:The scenes in Another Country emerge from daily images of conflict and uprising. Discarded shoes\, tarps and handmade signs that mark the post-industrial landscape become part roadside memorial and part doomsday prophecy. These temporary sculptures - set against the backdrop of environmental decline - evoke a cautionary tale of hazmat crews and oil soaked shorelines. \n\nIf there is a place for both apathy and active resistance in the way forward to a better future\, Another Country carries the tension that’s in-between. Inspired by the visual resistance of liberation parties\, past and present\, it urges us to remember why we fight.\n\nShanna Merola is an artist\, activist\, and documentary photographer. Working for civil rights attorneys\, she photographs first amendment activity at protests and facilitates workshops on best practices during police encounters. Over the past five years she has been a human rights observer for social justice movements across the country - from the deeply embattled struggle over water rights in Detroit and Flint\, Michigan - to the frontlines of uprisings in Ferguson\, MO and Standing Rock\, ND. Her collages and constructed landscapes are informed by these rallies - from direct actions against fracking companies to the privatization of water both globally and locally. She is currently working on a collaborative production of Know Your Rights Theatre\, inspired by the politically radical puppet troupes of the 1960’s.\n\nMerola received an MFA in Photography from Cranbrook Academy of Art and a BFA in Photo and Film from Virginia Commonwealth University. She lives and works in Detroit\, Michigan.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CDNM Drug Discovery Seminar - \"Chemical Probing of Translational Control in Cancer\"
DESCRIPTION:mRNA translation has been shown to be dysregulated in a number of human disorders\, particularly cancer\; however\, targeting of this critical cellular process remains an underexplored area for therapeutic development. This talk will detail current approaches used by the Garner Laboratory for developing chemical probes and assays for investigating translational control in cancer. In particular\, our work in the discovery and development of small molecule and peptide probes for protein-protein interactions involved in cap-dependent translation and microRNA-mediated gene silencing will be discussed.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Here and There
DESCRIPTION:\"Here and There\"  looks at the problems of extreme poverty\, and includes artist Tracey Snelling's signature piece \"One Thousand Shacks.\" New works--created on campus during her three-week residency--will examine these issues in the US\, how they relate to location and\, at times\, the disenfranchisement of large groups of people for the sake of big business\, political clout\, and power. \n\nCurator's Statement:\n\nTo meet artist Tracey Snelling evokes the sensation of a strong willed breeze determined to open a backyard door. \n\nAs an artist and person\, she is down to earth\, direct\, contemporary\, and moving through it all with volition. \n\nSnelling’s artistic practice originally focused on photography as a medium\, but soon evolved to include her construction of sculptures based upon cities and towns\, strip malls and urban housing. \n\nShe refers to her three dimensional work as sculptural rather than diorama or model making because she isn’t particularly interested in the exact rendering of location\, or the contextualization of place. Instead\, she taps into the energy of community and its humanness—restless\, frenetic\, din\, a choir\, extending beyond the confines of walls. \n\nSnelling’s representations are neither judgmental nor opportunistic. They unaffectedly and objectively offer a multidimensional sketch of a place in time\, how we occupy space. \n\nHer signature piece \"One Thousand Shacks\" (included in this exhibition along with new work created during her her residency here) pushes up against the challenges of economic inequalities\, racial biases\, and imposed class divisions that often limit the options available to so many people. Concurrently\, the installation embraces our everyday existence expressed through Snelling’s exuberant palette\, bold graphics\, video and neon. \n\nConceptually\, Snelling’s stacking method first creates an exalted “big picture” with a myriad of colors\, image\, text\, sound and light. The counterpoint in scale soon immerses the viewer into each small world. With this shift\, the onlooker becomes the active participant\, the occupant in situ\, adding the trappings of their own experiences to each tableau. It is this shift that forces the viewer into a new way of seeing from varying perspectives.\n\nOn the one hand\, the artist’s sculptures allude to our desire for refuge\, a private domain that allows us to be ourselves. On the other\, the overall composition reaffirms it is imperative that we co-exist with one another respectfully\, forge relationships\, understanding our marked differences. It is diversity—the unique and often disparate combination of things\, the cacophony of it all\, that activates communities and public space.\n\nSnelling’s constructions literally build a way out\, one on top of another\, charged with the undercurrent of the way we live. They emphasize our universal longing to find a place called home\, and be accepted\, built on the foundation of one and of many. \n–Amanda Krugliak\, Arts Curator\, Institute for the Humanities\n\nAbout Tracey Snelling:\nThrough the use of sculpture\, photography\, video\, and large-scale installation\, Tracey Snelling gives her impression of a place\, its people and their experience. Often\, the cinematic image stands in for real life as it plays out behind windows in the buildings\, sometimes creating a sense of mystery\, other times stressing the mundane. Snelling’s work derives from voyeurism\, film noir\, and geographical and architectural location. Within this idea of location\, themes develop that transport observation into the realm of storytelling\, with reality and sociological study being the focus. Snelling had exhibited in international galleries\, museums and institutions\, including the The Royal Museum of Fine Arts\, Belgium\; Palazzo Reale\, Milan\; Museum of Arts and Design\, New York\; Kunstmuseen Krefeld Germany\; El Museo de Arte de Banco de la Republica\, Bogota\; the Stenersen Museet\, Oslo\, and the Sundance Film Festival. Her short films have screened at the San Francisco International Film Festival\, the Thessaloniki International Film Festival\, Circuito Off in Venice\, Italy\, and the Arquiteturas Film Festival Lisboa in Portugal. She also received a 2015 Joan Mitchell Painters and Sculptors Grant. Snelling lives and works in Oakland\, California and Berlin\, Germany.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Chicana Fotos: Nancy De Los Santos
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition Dates: Friday\, February 17 - April 14\, 2017\nOpening Reception: Friday\, February 17\, 2017 from 4 - 7 pm\, featuring a performance by Ballet Folklórico De Detroit at 6 pm.\nGallery Talk by Nancy De Los Santos and exhibition curator Maria Cotera: Friday\, February 17\, 2017 at 12 pm\, Walter P. Reuther Library Woodcock Conference Room\nWalter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University\n5401 Cass Ave\, Detroit\, MI 48202\n\nBorn and raised in Chicago by Mexican-American parents\, Nancy De Los Santos is an accomplished filmmaker and proud “Chicana from Chicago” who has dedicated her life and career to rewriting and redefining the image of Latina/os in the mainstream media. Among her most celebrated works are as Co-Writer and Co-Producer of The Bronze Screen: 100 Years of the Latin Image in Hollywood Cinema\, with Susan Racho and Alberto Dominguez\, and as Associate Producer on the feature film Selena.\n\nIn Chicana Fotos\, an exhibit of evocative photographs taken in the 1970s\, we meet a very different Nancy: a woman armed with a camera\, capturing historic events in the struggles for social justice of the time. Nancy’s photographs of Chicano Movement marches and rallies\, farmworker mobilizations in Chicago and Texas\, and Latina organizing in the Midwest and internationally offer a priceless documentary view of Latina/o politics in the 1970s. Her more intimate pictures of everyday Latina/o life capture what it was like to live through a period of radical social transformation. The exhibit includes rare photographs of UFW organizing activities in Chicago\, the Texas Farmworker Pilgrimage of 1977\, and the first ever International Women’s Year Conference in Mexico City in 1975. These images are supplemented by never before exhibited documents from the Walter P. Reuther UFW Collection.\n\nChicana Fotos was curated by University of Michigan professor Maria Cotera (with assistance from Pau Nava) and designed by students and faculty of the UM Stamps School of Art & Design. Stamps School faculty Hannah Smotrich and Katie Rubin co-taught the collaborative\, interdisciplinary Exhibition Design class with students Ian Crowley\, Rachel Dawson\, Emilie Farrugia\, Kelsi Franzino\, Andrew Han\, Jack Hyland\, Maggie Lemak\, Megan Lewin-Smith\, Katie Mongoven\, Olivia Moore\, Pau Nava\, and Sarah Wolf.\n\nChicana Fotos is a collaboration between the El Museo del Norte\, the Chicana por mi Raza Digital Archive\, the Stamps School of Art & Design and the Walter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University.\n\nThe Walter P. Reuther Library of Labor and Urban Affairs at Wayne State University is the largest labor archive in North America. In addition to internationally significant collections on the history of the North American labor movement\, the Reuther Library holds the official records of Wayne State University\, as well as extensive records documenting urban affairs\, civic life\, civil rights\, ethnic and religious organizations\, and community development across Southeast Michigan.\n\nChicana Fotos was made possible through the generous financial support of the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative and the Stamps School of Art & Design. Gallery talk sponsored by the Center for Latina/o and Latin American Studies\, Wayne State University\, and the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Constructing Gender
DESCRIPTION:Ask U-M students\, alumni\, or fans what symbolizes the University of Michigan\, and you’ll likely hear the Big House\, the Diag\, along with the Michigan Union and the Michigan League. Since they officially opened in 1919 and 1929\, respectively\, the Union and League have been destinations for generations of Wolverines yet few know the rich history of the buildings’ origins or about the architects who brought them both to life: brothers and U-M alums Irving K. and Allen Pond.\n\nThe exhibition\, organized in celebration of the University of Michigan’s bicentennial in 2017\, illuminates the architecture and bustling student life of these iconic buildings using original drawings\, renderings\, photographs\, color studies\, and even dance cards from the Bentley Historical Library\, which serves as the University of Michigan archives. These fascinating documents reveal how the buildings were conceived\, constructed\, and first occupied by students and alumni. Guest curated by Nancy Bartlett of the Bentley Historical Library\, the exhibition reveals how the Ponds meticulously conceived and constructed the two clubs—one for men\, one for women—by weaving ideas about gender and society into the very fabric of the buildings themselves.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run
DESCRIPTION:In 2013\, artist Ernestine Ruben (BSDEs ’53) photographed the once-famed industrial complex Willow Run in Washtenaw County\, Michigan. Designed by her grandfather\, Detroit architect Albert Kahn\, for the Ford Motor Company\, Willow Run was an exemplar of American defense manufacturing because of its efficient mass-production of B-24 Liberators during World War II.\n\nFor this exhibition\, Ruben overlaid interior views of the now-dormant factory with imagined glimpses into her body’s interior landscape. The resulting compositions seem to breathe energy and light into the stagnant and cavernous spaces of Willow Run and suggest a longing for a productive existence undeterred by mortality for both Willow Run and the artist. Her grandfather’s role in the history of the site underscores Ruben’s personal connection.\n\nThe exhibition presents Ruben’s photographs of Willow Run in UMMA’s Photography Gallery and an original film—co-created by Ruben and video artist Seth Bernstein and featuring an original score by award-winning composer Stephen Hartke—in the Museum’s Forum.\n\nLead support for Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run: Mobilizing Memory is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the Herbert W. and Susan L.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Fragments Workshop. Interacting with Text in Early Imperial China and Beyond.
DESCRIPTION:This seminar will feature commentators Varuni Bhatia (Asian Languages & Cultures) and Roger Bagnall (ISAW). \n\nArchaeological finds in China during the twentieth and twenty-first centuries have added unprecedented depth and detail to our understanding of premodern Chinese history. This paper synthesizes recovered manuscript materials from Gansu and Inner Mongolia to argue that the soldiers in the northwest border area during the Han dynasty constituted a literate community of commoners linked to the broader textual culture of the empire. I bring in a new interpretive framework\, incorporate new sources\, and reconsider previously known materials to challenge common assumptions about textual culture in early China. The implications of my study undermine received understandings of power in early society. Where scholars have often viewed text and the power associated with it as the exclusive province of elites\, I demonstrate that these capabilities existed throughout society.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:GOIN’ NORTH: BLACK DETROIT  AND THE  GREAT MIGRATION\,  1910-1930
DESCRIPTION:Summary: \nExhibit of photographs and documents produced by the Michigan Historical Collections in Commemoration of Martin Luther King\, Jr. Day at the University of Michigan\, published 1991.\nBLACK DETROIT AND THE GREAT MIGRATION\n\nSince Norf is up\,\nAn’ Souf is down\,\nAn’ Hebben is up\,\nI’m upward boun’.*\nThey came to Detroit by the thousands from Georgia\, Alabama\, Tennessee\, South Caroline and they stayed. They were part of what historians characterize as a watershed in African American History-the Great Migration. From 1910 to 1930\, hundreds of thousands of Blacks headed North\, leaving the South because of economic hardship\, poor educational opportunities\, and enticed by the lure of better jobs in northern industries and more freedom. Cites in the industrial Northeast and Midwest experienced astounding increases in their Black populations\, but few more so that Detroit\, its institutions and its cultures\, took shape and developed. The problems encountered by the migrants in the form of discrimination and racial animosity were problems with which the city would grapple throughout the decades to follow.\n\nThis exhibit focused on the two major concerns of the migrants\, housing and jobs\, and on the attempts made by various organizations in adjusting to life in Detroit. It is primarily compiled from the holding s of the University of Michigan’s Bentley Historical Library\, particularly the rich collection of the Detroit Urban League. It is also drawn from the Collections of the Detroit Public Library\, the Walter Reuther Collection of the Detroit Public Library\, the Walter Reuther Collection of Labor History and Urban Affairs (Wayne State University)\, the Collections of the Henry Ford Museum and Greenfield Village\, the Detroit News\, and tge Second Baptist Church of Detroit\, Michigan. The exhibit was prepared by Christine Weideman and Karen Jania\, staff members of the Bentley Historical Library.\n\n*From the poem\, “Northboun’” by Lucy Ariel Williams\, printed in Opportunity “: a Journal of Negro Life\, June 1926. The journal was a publication of the National Urban League.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Victors for Art: Michigan's Alumni Collectors–Part I: Figuration
DESCRIPTION:Commemorating the University of Michigan’s 2017 Bicentennial\, Victors for Art: Michigan’s Alumni Collectors celebrates the deep impact of Michigan alumni in the global art world. This two-part exhibition (Part I: Figuration followed by Part II: Abstraction on view July 1– October 29) presents works collected by a diverse group of alumni that represent the breadth of the University and over seventy years of graduating classes. The works themselves are equally diverse\, ranging from ancient sculptures to contemporary multimedia works. Part I: Figuration features works by Henri Matisse\, Elizabeth Louise Vigée Le Brun\, Mark Tansey\, and Mickalene Thomas\, among others\, and allows visitors to explore the variety of artistic responses and purposes encompassed by the term “figuration”. It also offers an unprecedented opportunity to view art that may have never been publicly displayed otherwise—and most certainly\, not all together. For visitors\, and especially for future Michigan alumni\, Victors for Art illuminates the shared passion for art fostered by the Michigan experience.\n\nThis exhibition was organized by Joseph Rosa\, Guest Curator\, in collaboration with Laura De Becker\, Helmut & Candis Stern Associate Curator of African Art\, Jennifer Friess\, Assistant Curator of Photography\, Lehti Mairike Keelman\, Assistant Curator of Western Art\, and Natsu Oyobe\, Curator of Asian Art.\n\nLead support for Victors for the Arts: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the President\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Error Correction in Foreign Language Classrooms: Journey to Ithaca
DESCRIPTION:Correcting grammar errors in speaking or writing is thought to be part of every language teacher’s job\, a professional duty that many teachers excel in and that most language students expect. There are however many complexities that teachers wonder about\, encompassing affective concerns (will it demotivate some of my students?)\, time management (how can it become less time consuming?)\, doubts about effectiveness (how do I know that it is making a difference in my students’ accuracy?)\, proficiency differences (should I correct errors in the same ways regardless of my students’ language level?)\, and educational goals and philosophies of teaching (how should I reconcile correcting for accuracy with teaching for communication? how do I manage language accuracy efforts like error correction in the context of teaching other important dimensions of a foreign language\, like culture\, literature\, or writing?). Professor Ortega will examine these complexities and propose tentative best practices regarding why\, whether\, how\, when\, and what to correct in foreign language students’ errors. Her goal is to do so through insights gleaned from a balanced examination of research findings and the realities of foreign language education in practice. In the end\, she will argue that much is to be gained if language teachers rethink their error correction as the kind of journey to Ithaca Greek-Alexandrian poet Kavafis proposed: An opportunity for lasting engagement in professional self-discovery\, rather than a point of final destination.\n\nLourdes Ortega is Professor in the Department of Linguistics at Georgetown University. Her main area of research is in second language acquisition\, particularly sociocognitive and educational dimensions in adult classroom settings. Before moving to the USA in 1993\, she was a teacher of Spanish as a foreign language at the Cervantes Institute in Athens and she has also taught English as a second language in Hawaii and Georgia. Lourdes was co-recipient of the Pimsleur and the TESOL Research awards (2001) and has been a doctoral Mellon fellow (1999)\, a postdoctoral Spencer/National Academy of Education fellow (2003)\, and a senior research fellow at the Freiburg Institute of Advanced Studies (2010). She was Journal Editor of Language Learning (2010-2015) and is a member of the Board of Directors of the University of Michigan’s Language Learning Research Club (2016-2020). She has published widely in journals such as Annual Review of Applied Linguistics\, Applied Linguistics\, Journal of Second Language Writing\, Language Learning\, Modern Language Journal\, Studies in Second Language Acquisition\, and System. Her books include Understanding Second Language Acquisition (2009\, translated into Mandarin in 2016)\, and co-edited collections on Technology-mediated TBLT (with Marta González-Lloret\, John Benjamins\, 2014) and The Usage-based Study of Language Learning and Multilingualism (with Ande Tyler and colleagues\, Georgetown University Press\, 2016). She is currently busy co-editing (with Annick De Houwer) The Handbook of Bilingualism for Cambridge University Press.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Life After Grad School Seminar | My AAAS S&T Policy Fellowship: Transitioning into Science and Technology Policy - The Role of Evidence-Based Decision Making for Better Governance
DESCRIPTION:In my talk I will share\, first my experience as a Higher Energy Particle Physicist\, highlighting some aspects of my 4-year postdoctoral career and what got me thinking more seriously about science for policies and policies for science. I will then give an overview of my STEM education initiatives in South America\, in particular\, my work with a Peruvian no for profit organization whose mission is to implement fully inclusive innovative education STEM projects for students in Peru. I will then talk about my transition into science policy as a first year AAAS Science and Technology Policy Fellow in the Division of Undergraduate Education at the National Science Foundation. I will highlight my work investigating institutional efforts to transform teaching and learning in STEM fields into environments that support and scale-up evidence-based teaching and learning practices across all STEM departments. I will also talk about some of my own projects\, ranging from science diplomacy to regional food systems for sustainable food production and consumption. I will finish talking about all that there is to learn and explore in the nation’s capital and my \"vision\" for \"my future.\"

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Labor Economics: Valuing Alternative Work Arrangements
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\n\nWe use a field experiment to study how workers value alternative work arrangements. During the application process to staff a national call center we randomly offered applicants choices between traditional M-F 9 am – 5 pm office positions and alternatives. These alternatives include flexible scheduling\, working from home\, and positions that give the employer discretion over scheduling. We randomly varied the wage difference between the traditional option and the alternative\, allowing us to estimate the entire distribution of willingness to pay (WTP) for these alternatives. We validate our results using a nationally-representative survey. The great majority of workers are not willing to pay for flexible scheduling relative to a traditional schedule: either the ability to choose the days and times of work or the number of hours they work. However\, the average worker is willing to give up 20% of wages to avoid a schedule set by an employer on a week’s notice. This largely represents workers’ aversion to evening and weekend work\, not scheduling unpredictability. Traditional M-F 9 am – 5 pm schedules are preferred by most jobseekers. Despite the fact that the average worker isn’t willing to pay for scheduling flexibility\, a tail of workers with high WTP allows for sizable compensating differentials. Of the worker-friendly options we test\, workers are willing to pay the most (8% of wages) for the option of working from home. Women\, particularly those with young children\, have higher WTP for work from home and to avoid employer scheduling discretion. They are slightly more likely to be in jobs with these amenities\, but the differences are not large enough to explain any wage gaps.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:SAC Speaker Series Presents NYU Professor of Social and Cultural Analysis Andrew Ross
DESCRIPTION:Recent writing about “creative labor” has helped us to understand how “working for exposure” has become a central economic principle of the media and knowledge industries. But this focus on the attention economy has neglected how the “groundstaff” are employed to construct and maintain our brand-name institutions. How can arts and media activists turn such institutions into communities of conscience where the rights of all workers are upheld?

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Special Events
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: \nOver the last few years\, machine learning approaches to natural language processing have made significant strides in numerous applications\, including: automatic summarization\, sentiment detection\, personalized news feed generation\, natural language user interfaces\, and more. Among these various applications\, there is a unifying theme -- reliance on a broad mathematical foundation\, with special emphasis on linear algebra\, probability\, and statistics.\n\nIn this talk\, I'll introduce the fundamentals of machine learning and delve into some of the natural language problems listed above\, with the goal of sketching solutions using only techniques that I introduce\, motivate\, demonstrate\, and rigorously justify during the talk.\n\nWhile the talk is targeted at a mathematically sophisticated audience familiar with standard concepts from linear algebra and probability theory\, no prior exposure to machine learning or natural language processing is required or expected.\n\nBio:\nDavid Montague is part of the Quantitative Execution and Development team at Palantir\, where he works on a variety of mathematical modeling problems across Palantir and its customers. Some of the domains in which he has worked include health insurance\, local law enforcement\, media\, oil & gas\, and pharmaceutical research. David holds a PhD in mathematics from Stanford University\, where he studied covariance estimation and graphical models for infinite collections of random variables.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Applied Interdisciplinary Mathematics
DESCRIPTION:Electrostatic interactions are fundamental in colloidal and biological systems.  Continuum models\, such as the classical Poisson-Boltzmann (PB) theory\, are efficient descriptions of such interactions.  It is known\, however\, such a theory is unable to capture many important properties\, such as the ionic size effect and charge-charge correlation.  In this talk\, I will first report some recent progress in developing mathematically PB-like continuum theories that account for additional electrostatic properties.  I will then present a variational implicit-solvent model for biological molecules (such as proteins) in which the electrostatics is described through the dielectric boundary that separates a biomolecule from the surrounding solvent (i.e.\, water).  I will show how the dielectric boundary force can be obtained as the shape derivative of the electrostatic free energy\, and prove that such force can lead to an interfacial instability that has been observed in experiment and molecular dynamics simulations.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Financial/Actuarial Mathematics
DESCRIPTION:Option pricing models typically consider either monopolistic market makers\, or infinite competition. Real markets\, however\, are often dominated by a few large dealers with substantial market power. We study a Stackelberg competition between a finite number of option dealers and a client who wants to sell part of her option position. The dealers quote pricing schedules\, based on which the client decides how many options to sell to the dealers.\n\n(Joint work with Bruno Bouchard and Johannes Muhle-Karbe) Speaker(s): Martin Herdegen (Warwick)

DESCRIPTION:Thurston conjectured that quasifuchsian manifolds are determined by the induced hyperbolic metrics on the boundary of their convex core and Mess generalized those conjectures to the context of globally hyperbolic AdS spacetimes. In this talk I will discuss a generalization of these conjecture to convex hulls of quasicircles in the boundary at infinity of hyperbolic and anti-de Sitter space.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HET Seminar | Dark Matter and Light Forces: Precisely Predicting Indirect Signals
DESCRIPTION:Heavy dark matter coupled to much lighter force carriers exhibits a range of interesting behaviors that are not well-characterized by the usual perturbative Feynman diagram expansion\, including long-range interactions\, annihilation rates modified by both large velocity-dependent enhancements and large logarithms\, and the presence of bound states. There has been great interest in recent years in dark sectors containing both dark matter and much lighter particles\; as the LHC continues to constrain low-scale supersymmetry\, even classic weakly interacting dark matter candidates may need to be heavy relative to the weak gauge bosons. I will describe recent work to characterize the novel properties of heavy dark matter coupled to light force carriers\, in two principal directions: (1) the precision calculation of heavy wino dark matter annihilation to line photons using effective field theory\, now to NLL’ order\, and (2) the properties of dark-sector bound states where multiple force carriers and several states in a dark matter multiplet may be involved\, using the wino as an example. I will discuss the importance of these results for indirect detection experiments searching for the products of dark matter annihilation.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Combinatorics
DESCRIPTION:Kronecker coefficients are tensor product multiplicities for the irreducible representations of the symmetric group. Recently\, Stembridge generalized a stabilization phenomenon occurring among the Kronecker coefficients which was first discovered by Murnaghan in the 1930's. While doing so\, Stembridge demonstrated that this generalized stability will occur when an associated polytope is 0-dimensional. In this talk\, I will show how to classify when this polytope is 0-dimensional using a modified version of the puzzles and honeycombs of Knutson and Tao. Speaker(s): Stefan Froelich (U. of Michigan)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Biophysics Seminar: Professor Nicolas Fawzi\, Brown University\, Assistant Professor of Molecular Pharmacology\, Physiology and Biotechnology
DESCRIPTION:Phase separation of RNA-binding proteins via multivalent interactions between aromatic/polar-rich disordered domains contributes to the formation of functional cytoplasmic granules and nuclear puncta\, which have been shown to behave as liquids -- flowing\, fusing\, and returning to spherical shape -- within live cells. These domains have also been identified as the nucleators of cytoplasmic inclusions associated with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD). We use atomic resolution nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy approaches to visualize low complexity domain structure and interactions along the pathway from monomer\, to liquid-liquid phase separated state\, to static aggregates and hydrogels. We show that the low complexity domains of RNA-binding protein Fused in Sarcoma (FUS LC\, associated with ALS and FTD) and hnRNP A2 (associated with ALS and IBM) remain disordered even within liquid phase separated puncta (Burke et al. Molecular Cell\, 2015). FUS LC also recruits unphosphorylated RNA-polymerase II C-terminal domain into the liquid phase separated state\, adding a potential explanation for FUS LC transcriptional activation in cancer. Importantly\, phase separation is reversible and is modulated by interaction with RNA\, distinguishing these assemblies from static inclusions that can arise from missense mutations in the LC regions. In contrast\, we show that liquid-liquid phase separation of TDP-43 is mediated in part by structured α-helical assembly and extension (Conicella et al. Structure\, 2016). Some ALS-associated mutations disrupt helix-helix interaction inhibiting liquid-liquid phase separation while leading to enhanced aggregation. Our current work aims to evaluate the potential of post translational modification to alter assembly and hence disrupt pathological interactions of these disordered domains.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Success in Multilingual Learning: Continued\, Probabilistic\, and Beyond Language
DESCRIPTION:How successful are adults in their learning of new languages? Traditionally\, the field of second language acquisition has answered this question rather pessimistically\, comparing multilingual success directly to monolingual success. Professor Ortega leverages research insights from developmental bilingualism and the study of critical applied linguistics and language ideologies and proposes that multilinguals’ success must be thought of as a probabilistic continuum along both early and late bilingualism that goes beyond strictly linguistic notions of competence. \n\nLourdes Ortega is Professor in the Department of Linguistics at Georgetown University. Her main area of research is in second language acquisition\, particularly sociocognitive and educational dimensions in adult classroom settings. Before moving to the USA in 1993\, she was a teacher of Spanish as a foreign language at the Cervantes Institute in Athens and she has also taught English as a second language in Hawaii and Georgia. Lourdes was co-recipient of the Pimsleur and the TESOL Research awards (2001) and has been a doctoral Mellon fellow (1999)\, a postdoctoral Spencer/National Academy of Education fellow (2003)\, and a senior research fellow at the Freiburg Institute of Advanced Studies (2010). She was Journal Editor of Language Learning (2010-2015) and is a member of the Board of Directors of the University of Michigan’s Language Learning Research Club (2016-2020). She has published widely in journals such as Annual Review of Applied Linguistics\, Applied Linguistics\, Journal of Second Language Writing\, Language Learning\, Modern Language Journal\, Studies in Second Language Acquisition\, and System. Her books include Understanding Second Language Acquisition (2009\, translated into Mandarin in 2016)\, and co-edited collections on Technology-mediated TBLT (with Marta González-Lloret\, John Benjamins\, 2014) and The Usage-based Study of Language Learning and Multilingualism (with Ande Tyler and colleagues\, Georgetown University Press\, 2016). She is currently busy co-editing (with Annick De Houwer) The Handbook of Bilingualism for Cambridge University Press.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Exhibition Opening\, \"Persistent Pasts: The Bicentennial Campus as Archive\"
DESCRIPTION:Presentation in the Art & Architecture Auditorium will be followed by an opening reception in the college gallery. \n\nCombining historical research and analysis from the students in Sarah Rovang’s “The Curated Campus” graduate seminar and the design output of Steven Mankouche’s “What If” Options Studio\, Persistent Pasts reflects on the University of Michigan’s campus as a repository of memory. As UM celebrates its Bicentennial year\, this exhibition asks how past traditions\, tensions\, and technologies have left material or cultural traces on campus space today. By laying bare rarely examined aspects of the historical university alongside radical designs for an unrealized present\, Persistent Pasts asks us to question entrenched conceptions of what UM should and could be\, architecturally and institutionally. This exhibition is supported in part by a Bicentennial Activity Grant\, co-authored by Claire Zimmerman and Sarah Rovang. \n\nStudent Presenters:\nTyler Schaafsma \nVaishnavi Magar\nRebecca Lesher & Nour Majzoub\nIbiayi Briggs & Jordan Laurila\n\nThis exhibition will be on view in the Taubman College Gallery through May 19. The college gallery is open Monday - Friday\, 9am - 5pm.

SUMMARY:Performance:Shawn Mullins
DESCRIPTION:Atlanta singer-songwriter Shawn Mullins has had major adult alternative radio hits with \"Lullaby and \"Beautiful Wreck\,\" and he writes introspective original songs in an Americana framework that sound great either solo or with a band. He's been called Jewel with a Y chromsome\, and he's looking like he's going to match her career staying power. Shawn's music is overflowing with perfect rhymes\, telling detail and underlying glimpses of truth. This is uncommonly literate stuff\, striking in its insightfulness and compassion\, all delivered in a companionable baritone. Shawn comes to Michigan with a new album\, \"My Stupid Heart\,\" that covers—you guessed it—the singer-songwriter's recent breakup. \"This record came out of all that\; all the feelings\, all the heartache\,\" Shawn explains. His loss is audiences' gain!

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:2017 Andean Circle Conference
DESCRIPTION:This year’s Andean Circle conference will address the ways in which social inequality is practiced and experienced in the Andes. The silent yet pervasive mechanisms of social categorization have led to substantial discrimination in the Andes. Rosaleen Howard\, our keynote speaker for the 2017 conference and Chair of Hispanic Studies and Professor in the School of Modern Languages at the University of Newcastle\, will speak directly to these issues. Over the course of her career\, Prof. Howard’s anthropological and sociolinguistic work has focused on language politics and cultural identities in the Andes. Her talk will discuss the nature of linguistic racism in theory and in practice as it emerges between mainstream Spanish-speaking society and speakers of indigenous languages across the Andean-Amazonian states of South America. Talks by Allison Caine\, Bruce Mannheim and Devin Grammon will address issues of linguistic\, racial and gender-based inequality in the Andes drawn from a combination of fieldwork methodologies\, in situ ethnography\, historical research\, and in-depth analysis of linguistic data and global education.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Saturday Morning Physics | Hunting for Evidence of Galactic Cannibalism
DESCRIPTION:Our home\, the Milky Way\, is surrounded by a host of small dwarf galaxies. Currently one of these galaxies\, Sagittarius Dwarf Spheroidal\, is being striped apart - cannibalized - by the Milky Way. Theory suggests that this violent act is not unique\, and that the diffuse stellar halo that surrounds the Milky Way is in fact a tidal graveyard of destroyed dwarf galaxies. Dr. Loebman will discuss how astronomers study the stellar halo and hunt for evidence of our cannibalistic past. She will also highlight tantalizing clues of a cataclysmic epoch in the Milky Way's history and how new observations from Gaia may cause us to rethink our distant past.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Constructing Gender
DESCRIPTION:Ask U-M students\, alumni\, or fans what symbolizes the University of Michigan\, and you’ll likely hear the Big House\, the Diag\, along with the Michigan Union and the Michigan League. Since they officially opened in 1919 and 1929\, respectively\, the Union and League have been destinations for generations of Wolverines yet few know the rich history of the buildings’ origins or about the architects who brought them both to life: brothers and U-M alums Irving K. and Allen Pond.\n\nThe exhibition\, organized in celebration of the University of Michigan’s bicentennial in 2017\, illuminates the architecture and bustling student life of these iconic buildings using original drawings\, renderings\, photographs\, color studies\, and even dance cards from the Bentley Historical Library\, which serves as the University of Michigan archives. These fascinating documents reveal how the buildings were conceived\, constructed\, and first occupied by students and alumni. Guest curated by Nancy Bartlett of the Bentley Historical Library\, the exhibition reveals how the Ponds meticulously conceived and constructed the two clubs—one for men\, one for women—by weaving ideas about gender and society into the very fabric of the buildings themselves.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run
DESCRIPTION:In 2013\, artist Ernestine Ruben (BSDEs ’53) photographed the once-famed industrial complex Willow Run in Washtenaw County\, Michigan. Designed by her grandfather\, Detroit architect Albert Kahn\, for the Ford Motor Company\, Willow Run was an exemplar of American defense manufacturing because of its efficient mass-production of B-24 Liberators during World War II.\n\nFor this exhibition\, Ruben overlaid interior views of the now-dormant factory with imagined glimpses into her body’s interior landscape. The resulting compositions seem to breathe energy and light into the stagnant and cavernous spaces of Willow Run and suggest a longing for a productive existence undeterred by mortality for both Willow Run and the artist. Her grandfather’s role in the history of the site underscores Ruben’s personal connection.\n\nThe exhibition presents Ruben’s photographs of Willow Run in UMMA’s Photography Gallery and an original film—co-created by Ruben and video artist Seth Bernstein and featuring an original score by award-winning composer Stephen Hartke—in the Museum’s Forum.\n\nLead support for Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run: Mobilizing Memory is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.\n\n\n\nLead support for Victors for the Arts: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the President\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Victors for Art: Michigan's Alumni Collectors–Part I: Figuration
DESCRIPTION:Commemorating the University of Michigan’s 2017 Bicentennial\, Victors for Art: Michigan’s Alumni Collectors celebrates the deep impact of Michigan alumni in the global art world. This two-part exhibition (Part I: Figuration followed by Part II: Abstraction on view July 1– October 29) presents works collected by a diverse group of alumni that represent the breadth of the University and over seventy years of graduating classes. The works themselves are equally diverse\, ranging from ancient sculptures to contemporary multimedia works. Part I: Figuration features works by Henri Matisse\, Elizabeth Louise Vigée Le Brun\, Mark Tansey\, and Mickalene Thomas\, among others\, and allows visitors to explore the variety of artistic responses and purposes encompassed by the term “figuration”. It also offers an unprecedented opportunity to view art that may have never been publicly displayed otherwise—and most certainly\, not all together. For visitors\, and especially for future Michigan alumni\, Victors for Art illuminates the shared passion for art fostered by the Michigan experience.\n\nThis exhibition was organized by Joseph Rosa\, Guest Curator\, in collaboration with Laura De Becker\, Helmut & Candis Stern Associate Curator of African Art\, Jennifer Friess\, Assistant Curator of Photography\, Lehti Mairike Keelman\, Assistant Curator of Western Art\, and Natsu Oyobe\, Curator of Asian Art.\n\nLead support for Victors for the Arts: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the President\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Journey in a Day: 200 Years of Student Life at the University of Michigan
DESCRIPTION:U-M students have teamed up to create this sweeping exhibition\, surveying 200 years of daily rituals\, social life\, challenges\, victories\, and the roles U-M students have played in historic events. \"The Journey in a Day\" exhibition includes nearly 50 historic objects and dozens of photos.

SUMMARY:Performance:The River in Our City\, the River in Our Veins
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Professors Christianne Myers and Michael Gurevich. The Huron River is a beautiful and defining feature of our city and the University. We try to control it as it meanders\, tumbles\, carves and flows. It sustains\, as it flows through us all. With the Huron River as a source of inspiration\, fiber arts students in the Stamps School of Art & Design created fabrics inspired by the river last fall. Students in Electronic Chamber Music and Introduction to Puppetry have used those fabrics to create large processional puppets--some as kinetic instruments\, some to take flight\, and some to be underscored by sounds inspired by our environment. Presented with support from SMTD\, MCubed\, and the Bicentennial Grant.
