Stamps School of Art and Design Professor of Art Susan Crowell presents\, among other works\, a series of wall plaques depicting endangered species. In Professor Crowell's effort to\, \"...question our interactions with the animal world and our impact upon it\,\" she has installed images of elephants and donkeys as protagonists and antagonists in political struggle\, and polar bears as victims of global warming. \n\n\"Animal/ Vegetable/Mineral presents an occasion to speak about my most compelling interests—plants and animals--within the mineral rubrics of clay\,\" she says.\n\nThis event is free and open to the public. Masks are required for all attendees. Vaccination is not required but highly encouraged. All attendees must complete a short questionnaire at https://responsiblue.umich.edu/sign-in before entering East Quadrangle.\n\nSusan Crowell is Professor of Art at the University of Michigan\, where she teaches ceramics and holds a joint appointment in the Residential College and the Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design. A Fulbright Scholar\, she studied architectural ceramics at Centro Internazionale di Ceramica in Rome and directed and taught in the University of Michigan’s Program in Florence. Prof. Crowell conducts research and exhibits her work locally\, nationally and internationally. She has presented projects and exhibitions in Canada (at Banff)\, Japan (at Shigaraki and Miyazaki)\, Italy (Rome\, Venice and Florence)\, Taiwan\, Denmark and China\, as well as in France and the United States\, and she has participated in a variety of international venues and residencies. In 2005 Crowell published I Compianti Sul Christo Morto: Lamentation Groupings in Northern Italy to illuminate the distinguished history of ceramic materials in Quattrocento devotional and didactic sculpture\, and to bring an understanding of their use and potential to contemporary ceramics practitioners. In April of 2016 Prof. Crowell exhibited her work in the conservatories of the Matthaei Botanical Gardens at the University of Michigan\, and in May of 2017\, at the Alden Dow Gardens in Midland\, MI. In 2018 she conducted residencies and research at the Jean Noble Parsons Center for the Study of Art and Science in northern Michigan\, and at A.I.R. Vallauris in Vallauris\, France\, where she exhibited her work in La chapelle de la place Lisnard that October.\n \nFor ten years\, Crowell’s research and artistic practice has focused upon pollen forms and the process of pollination. Deploying her appreciation of the role of technology in revealing the natural world\, she applies the science and aesthetics of botany and apiculture toward the creation of ceramic sculpture\, using cast and hand-built forms. In doing so\, Prof. Crowell presents an expanded view of pollen within the problematics of industrialized honey production\, global commerce in apicultural products\, and genetically modified crops.. More recently\, she has created Thinning the Herd\, an installation of animal forms that addresses endangered species\, and Oppositional\, a commentary on contemporary political behavior in the United States.

Weaving together art production and exhibition\, community-based workshops and public speaking all with the intention of encouraging action towards making artificial intelligence systems more inclusive\, accessible and transparent. \n In this exhibition\, Dinkins will debut new and interactive installations and workshops that build on her concept of Afro-now-ism. In this poetic manifesto-like text\, Dinkins asks her audience\, particularly from communities of color\, to not only confront the litany of violences that humans have wielded upon one another based on the institutional and social constructions of race\, caste\, class\, and gender to maintain status quo and the current systems of power - but rise above it by taking action to start building the world that they desire. \nShe writes: “Instead of waiting to reach the proverbial promised land\, also known as a time in the future that may or may not manifest in your lifetime\, Afro-now-ism is taking the leap and the risks to imagine and define oneself beyond systemic oppression... For black people in particular\, it means conceiving yourself in the space of free and expansive thought and acting from a critically integrated space\, allowing for more community-sustaining work.” \n Through her installations and workshops Stephanie Dinkins: On Love &\; Data develops a dialogue with the audience on the hierarchies embedded within machine learning and AI architecture and one'\;s individual agency in transforming the algorithms within it. The audience will explore and participate in creating a more inclusive data-based narrative of what governance of the people\, by the people and for the people can look like in an AI mediated world where care is encoded within our digital civic system.

To this end\, we introduce the procompetitive effect into the Melitz (2003) model of monopolistic competition with heterogeneous firms\, using the H.S.A. (Homotheticity with a Single Aggregator) class of demand systems\, which has many advantages relative to other non-CES demand systems used in the literature.\nFirst\, it is homothetic. Market size can be thus defined unambiguously because the composition of market demand does not matter. It also helps to isolate the effects of variable markups from those of\nnonhomotheticity. Furthermore\, the homotheticity makes it straightforward to use H.S.A. as a building block in multi-sector general equilibrium models.\nSecond\, it is nonparametric. This makes it flexible enough to allow not only for Marshall’s Second Law\, which implies incomplete pass-through. It also allows for what we call the (weak and strong) Third Law--the pass-through rates for less efficient firms are no lower (under the weak Third\nLaw) or strictly higher (under the strong Third Law). Furthermore\, since this class contains CES (as well as translog) as a special case\, H.S.A. helps us understand which predictions of the Melitz model are\ncritically dependent on CES and which ones are not.\nThird\, because the single aggregator serves as a sufficient statistic for competitive pressures\, it is simple to establish the existence and uniqueness of free-entry equilibrium with firm heterogeneity. H.S.A. also retains much of the tractability of CES\; most of comparative statics can be conducted by means of simple diagrams\, and the key qualitative results are free of any further parametric restrictions on the demand systems and productivity distribution. In a one-sector setting\, we show\, among others\, that an increase in competitive pressures\, -- whether it is caused by an increase in market size\, a lower entry cost\, or a first-order stochastically dominant improvement in productivity distribution--\, leads to a tougher selection of firms\, larger dispersion of profit across surviving firms under the Second Law (and of revenue across firms under the weak Third Law)\, and smaller dispersion of markup rates under the strong Third Law. An increase in market size also leads to higher (lower) profits for the more (less) efficient among the surviving firms under the Second Law. If the weak Third Law holds additionally\, an increase in market size leads to higher revenue for all surviving firms with large enough overheads\, but only for the more efficient with small enough overheads. We also show that employment could be hump-shaped in the firm productivity under the Second and weak Third Laws\, in which case employment could be inversely related to productivity among surviving firms with overheads large enough relative to market size.\nThen\, in a multi-sector/region setting\, we show that\, under the Second Law\, competitive pressures are stronger in larger markets\, which causes more efficient firms to sort themselves into larger markets. Due to this composition effect\, the average markup rates are not necessarily lower in larger markets. This result offers a caution against testing the procompetitive effect of market size by comparing the average markup rates in a cross-section of cities with different sizes.

DESCRIPTION:Join Zoom Meeting\nhttps://umich.zoom.us/j/94099710193\nMeeting ID: 940 9971 0193\nPasscode: 761515\n\nThe accurate description of the ultrafast quantum dynamics of mutually interacting particles is of high interest in many areas of physics and chemistry. This includes the response of electrons in atoms\, molecules\, solids\, and plasmas to short laser pulses. Similar phenomena occur in optical lattices where cold atoms are driven out of equilibium by ultrafast changes of the lattice parameters (quenches) [1]. A third example is the collective response of electrons in correlated 2D materials to the impact of charged particles [2]. Common to all these systems is that the interaction between the particles (i.e. correlations) significantly affects the time evolution. Common is also that for these systems a solution of the Schrödinger equation is impossible.\n\nI will report how we approach the quantum dynamics of interacting particles. We apply the method of nonequilibrium Green functions (NEGF) which has proven to be a powerful tool to capture electron-electron correlations [3]. However\, NEGF simulations are computationally expensive due to their cubic scaling with the simulation duration T. With the introduction of the generalized Kadanoff-Baym ansatz [4]\, quadratic scaling could be achieved for second order Born (SOA) selfenergies [5]\, which has substantially extended the scope of NEGF simulations. Recently [6]\, we could achieve linear scaling within SOA and even the GW and dynamically screened ladder approximations which is a break through for simulating the correlated electron dynamics. \n\n[1] N.

Japan is likely to be \"top runner\" in facing such challenges.\n\nWe are considering a novel solution to address these challenges using the \"Westerly Jet Stream\" above Japan. Westerly jet stream is high density\, endless energy source\, just 10 km above the ground\, resulting due to heat transfer from tropical to pole\, inducing air convection (physics) and earth shape\, size and rotation (Occasional luck).\n\n\"Mothership\" is a visionary futuristic novel project\, in which we are proposing to use a large tethered inflatable structure kite\, that utilizes the “Westerly Jet Stream\" to float at high altitude and offer many societal benefits\, i.e. harvest energy\, “sky crane” to move heavy payload in remote areas\, communication relay station to help the satellite above clouds. We believe the envisioned \"Mothership\" project shows large potential to induce many new industries and ventures by offering innovative solutions.\n\nOur global team consist of members from Toyota research centers in Japan\, United States and Europe who are working on actual engineering development. We will share our vision of “Mothership”\, current progress and remaining challenges.\n\nAbout the speaker...\nMy name is Eiji Itakura and I am Captain and group manager of the Mothership Project in Frontier Research Center in Toyota Motor Corporation. I graduated from Kyoto University in 1988 with a Bachelor’s Degree and in 1990 with a Master Degree of Aeronautical Engineering. At that time my research team\, Rarefied Gas Dynamics\, found thermal creep flow characteristics and published a paper on the analytical method of Poiseuille and Thermal Creep Flow of any Knudsen number in JVSJ.\n\nI took about ten years as a research engineer and reciprocating aircraft engine designer of Toyota from 1990 and experienced its Type Certification and Production Certification missions as a Toyota local representative to work with the FAA in the U.S. for three years. After manager promotion I experienced physics model based engine control and designing and prototyping full carbon monocoque cabins of Lexus Sports LFA.\n\nI started “Mothership Project” in 2018 as a captain\, project leader and group manager ‘from scratch’. I presented my project in AWEC2019. I wanted to be an astronaut\, still I like Space and of course Aircrafts. My hobby is customizing old cars. I have spent lots of my money\, almost the same as buying the most expensive new Lexus car.

Multiscale interactions of tropical convection in the Indian Ocean\" and will take place on Thursday\, October 21 at 3:30 p.m. EDT.\n\nThis seminar will be in person at the Climate and Space Research Building Auditorium\, Room 2246.\n\nThe seminar may also be viewed via Zoom.\nPlease contact lhopkins@umich to request zoom access.\n\nABSTRACT: \nTwo high-impact weather phenomena form regularly in the Indian Ocean basin: tropical cyclones (TCs)\, and the convectively-active component of the Madden-Julian Oscillation (MJO). The MJO is one of the key seasonal modulators of precipitation for the equatorial Indian Ocean\, Maritime Continent\, and the west Pacific Ocean. Although less frequent than the other tropical cyclone basins of the world\, the impacts of TCs making landfall in this region are legendary\, given the highly populous countries that ring the basin.\n\nOur work began with using the MJO as a means to understand how differences in the larger-scale flow can influence the structure and evolution of tropical oceanic deep convection. As tropical cyclones often form within the vicinity of the active phase of the MJO\, this study led to an additional question: how can these two phenomena influence each other? Using a combination of case analysis of an active MJO during the DYNAMO field campaign alongside statistical analysis of best track and ERA5 reanalysis data of tropical cyclones coinciding with the convectively-active phase of the MJO in the Indian Ocean\, we examine how the presence of TCs in the basin may influence the westerly wind burst (WWB)\, a zone of anomalously westerly equatorial winds that follows the MJO’s convective envelope. Our results indicate a complex set of interactions at scales and distances larger than the TC circulations themselves.

On the other hand\, disruption of microbiome homeostasis and associated changes in the community’s structure/function underlies numerous health or environmental issues. My lab has been developing methods and tools rooted in engineering to study microbial communities in order to discover the underlying cellular and molecular mechanisms. In particular\, we have pioneered a technological pipeline\, based on nanoliter-scale microfluidic droplets\, to co-cultivate sub-communities and characterize interactions between community members. A number of technological modules have been created and the pipeline is being applied to the investigation of a range of health or environment related microbiomes. A second distinct yet complementary research thrust in my lab\, inspired by naturally occurring synergistic microbial communities\, has been the design and construction of synthetic microbial consortia for microbial engineering and biochemical production. One application focus has been synthesis of fuels and chemicals from lignocellulosic biomass. For instance\, we designed and optimized a consortium consisting of a cellulolytic fungus capable of hydrolyzing hemicellulose and cellulose (main components of lignocellulosic biomass) into mono and oligosaccharides and a genetically engineered bacterium for converting mono and oligosaccharides into isobutanol\, an advanced biofuel. The general framework of engineering defined co-cultures of coordinated specialists also offers exciting new opportunities for the efficient and flexible production of many valuable chemicals from other non-conventional bio-feedstocks.

But students only make real progress when they’re organized\, have the skills to be effective\, and have a strategic plan to get things done. That’s where we come in: For almost 50 years\, the Student PIRGs have been working to amplify the power of student activism. We help students make real change\, right now\, that will help all Americans to live meaningful lives and have a greener and healthier future.\n\nFor example\, PIRG students are working to ensure young people are full participants in the political process by helping to turn out the vote in local\, state and national elections through our New Voters Project. In the fall of 2020\, we made nearly 400\,000 peer-to-peer personal reminder contacts in the weeks leading up to Election Day. Our hard work paid off and we saw record turnout among young people. We’re keeping up this momentum and aim to help more than 50 campuses get to full voter participation by building strong coalitions on campus that reach all students — from the College Democrats and the College Republicans\, to Greek Life organizations and sports teams\, to multicultural groups and student governments.\n \nWe all want to live meaningful lives in a world that's greener and healthier. That's the future our campus organizers work to build every day. If you want a career working with great people\, gaining real skills and start making a difference on important issues right away\, this could be a good fit for you. \n\nLearn more at jobs.studentpirgs.org UID:88436-21653957@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/88436 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES: LOCATION: CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211021T181526 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211021T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211021T173000 SUMMARY:Other:Understanding and Controlling Electrochemistry for Electrolyzers and Batteries DESCRIPTION:Analytical\nAndrew Gewirth (University of Illinois at Urbana/Champaign) UID:84375-21623627@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/84375 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Biosciences,Chemistry,Science LOCATION:Chemistry Dow Lab - 1640 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211025T060004 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211021T163000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211021T235959 SUMMARY:Sporting Event:Head of the Charles Regatta DESCRIPTION:Rowing Regatta in Boston\, MA UID:88319-21656045@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/88319 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES: LOCATION:Boston, MA CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211105T123044 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211021T170000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211021T180000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Healthcare Moneyball —Associate Level Position in Healthcare Consulting with IQVIA! DESCRIPTION:Why Moneyball?\n\nNo worries\, we aren’t looking for candidates with backgrounds in sports\, reading Michael Lewis novels\, or indulging in Brad Pitt movies. In the early 2000s\, the Oakland Athletics baseball team implemented enhanced statistical insights to understand the real value of players\, as opposed to “old-school” approaches that are outdated\, subjective\, and often flawed. Using enhanced insights\, the A’s remained a competitive baseball team despite having limited funds to pay high-value players and managers – their unique approach to better gain insight about players had ushered in an era of new thinking to the game and enhanced insights are now a necessity to “play ball” in every industry.\n\nIn our world of healthcare\, ongoing changes in patient insurance coverage\, continued impacts from COVID-19\, increasing industry consolidation\, and the growth in expensive transformative therapeutics continue to challenge the life sciences landscape. These changes at a macro-level have ripple effects across the country. For example\, the “greying” of theUS is leading to approximately 15 M people enrolling in Medicare over thenext ten years\, but this impact is likely to increase more so in specific states and geographies. Furthermore\, the growth in high deductibles continue to drive higher costs across the landscape of various treatment options.\n\nAs a result\, we support our clients by developing “Moneyball” like solutions to provide better insights for our clients to adapt to demanding market. Our team uses the power of healthcare data to help manufacturers measure the impact of market access on brand performance and the cascading influence this has on how prescribers and patients gain access toinnovative therapies. We support manufacturers by providing deep insightsinto the geographic variations of patient\, insurer\, and prescriber behavior and thereby help manufacturers implement more effective strategies for sales execution\, insurer contracting\, net revenue optimization\, and all varieties of patient assistance programs. \n\nThe Market Access Strategy Consulting team at IQVIA is comprised of team members with degrees from some of the world’s top institutions. As a new hire\, you will be provided on-the-job training that will allow you to develop the skills and business acumen necessary to successfully navigate the largest and most comprehensive set of US healthcare data assets.

His most recent book\, *Sho* (Wave Books\, 2021)\, aims to hit crooked licks with straight-seeming sticks. \n\nNavigating the complex penetrability of language\, these poems are sonic in their espousal of Black vernacular strategies\, while examining histories and current events through the lyric\, brand new dances\, and other performances.\n\nKearney is also the author of *Buck Studies* (Fence Books\, 2016)\, which was awarded the CLMP Firecracker Award for Poetry\, the Theodore Roethke Memorial Poetry Award\, and the silver medal for the California Book Award in Poetry. BOMB says *Buck Studies* “remaps the 20th century in a project that is both lyrical and epic\, personal and historical.” Kearney describes the non-traditional layout of his poems as “performative typography.” On the relationship between his poetry and politics\, he notes: “For me\, the political is a part of how I see the world. My art making doesn’t begin without realizing who I am and what it means for me to be writing a poem and not doing something else.” Kearney’s collection of writing on poetics and performativity\, *Mess and Mess* (Noemi Press\, 2015)\, is a Small Press Distribution Handpicked Selection. In it\, Kearney writes\, “If my writing makes a mess of things\, it’s not to flee understanding\, but to map (mis-)understanding as a verb.” *Patter* (Red Hen Press\, 2014)\, Kearney’s third poetry collection\, examines miscarriage\, infertility\, and parenthood. The Black Automaton (Fence Books\, 2009) is a National Poetry Series selection\, which “flows from a consideration of urban speech\, negro spontaneity and book learning.” *Someone Took They Tongues* (Subito Press\, 2016) collects several of Kearney’s libretti\, including one written in a counterfeit Afro-diasporic language. He was the guest editor for *the 2015 Best American Experimental Writing*.\n\nKearney has received a Whiting Writers’ Award and the Cy Twombly Award for Poetry\, and was named a Notable New American Poet by the Poetry Society of America\, He has been awarded fellowships from Cave Canem and The Rauschenberg Foundation. His work has appeared in a number of journals\, including *Poetry*\, *Iowa Review*\, *Boston Review*\, and *Indiana Review*\, and anthologies\, including *Resisting Arrest: Poems to Stretch the Sky*\, *Best American Poetry*\, *Best American Experimental Writing*\, and *What I Say: Innovative Poetry by Black Poets in America*.\n\nRaised in Altadena\, CA\, he lives with his family a little west of Minneapolis\, MN and teaches creative writing at the University of Minnesota–Twin Cities.\n\nFor any questions about the event or to share accommodation needs\, please email kotziers@umich.edu-- we are eager to help ensure that this event is inclusive to you.

Thrown together purely by accident for an anniversary show at Winnipeg’s venerable West End Cultural Centre\, The Small Glories could almost make you believe in fate. \n\nWith a stage banter striking a unique balance between slapstick and sermon\, these veteran singer-songwriters have a way of making time disappear\, rooms shrink\, and audiences feel as they are right there on the stage with the band — writing the songs\, living the songs\, performing the songs. It’s not uncommon for listeners to find themselves laughing\, dancing\, crying\, or caught up in a good ol’ fashioned sing-along. “We’re folk singers\, we try to write stuff that people can relate to\,” says Edwards\, whose looming stage presence and penetrating eyes find him the yin to Luft’s petite\, snort-laughing yang. The material of a Small Glories concert is welcoming in terms of subject\, folk-pop melody and instrumentation — songs of love\, loss\, and environment\, delivered with soaring\, interwoven vocals on various combinations of stomping clawhammer banjo\, guitar and harmonica. However\, a Small Glories performance is really about what happens in-between the songs. “The feedback we get from a lot of audiences is that it’s not just about the music for them\,” Luft says. “It’s the whole package.”\n\nOn record\, The Small Glories take the musical synergy honed from hundreds of shows together\, and expand it into a new soundscape amplified by pounding drums and other textural embellishments which only reinforce the magic of Luft and Edwards’ innate chemistry — a chemistry labeled the “Lennon-McCartney syndrome\,” by Americana UK\, writing\, “Some things just work together… to witness a performance by The Small Glories is a rare opportunity to experience that indefinable quality that creates perfection.” But don’t just take a European reviewer’s word for it — the band’s debut album\, 2016’s Wondrous Traveler was also praised in Pitchfork by legendary American rock critic Greil Marcus\, who wrote\, “…in moments (The Small Glories) find the darkening chord change the best bluegrass — from the Stanley Brothers to Be Good Tanyas — has always hidden in the sweet slide of the rhythm\, the tiny shift where the person telling the story suddenly understands it.”\n\nIt’s this yearning for understanding which finds the band often taking more time to introduce a song than it actually takes to play it. Luft\, an original member of harmony sweethearts The Wailin' Jennys and whose parents were folksingers influenced by the great activist Pete Seeger\, knows that sometimes a song is all you need to bring people together. But often\, it is more. “(Seeger) was the king of uniting people through singing\,” Luft says. “There’s so much animosity and divisiveness in our world these days… as artists\, part of our job is to somehow create unity.”\n\nThe Small Glories duplicate and reinforce each others’ many strengths and yet allow their distinct personalities to shine through\, resulting in a live show that is as heartwarming as it is hilarious\, as finger-picking proficient as it is relatable\, and as Canadian as\, well… it’s very Canadian. But that hasn’t stopped them from winning over audiences from Nashville to the Australian outback. Their highly anticipated sophomore album “Assiniboine & the Red” was released the summer of 2019 on Compass/Red House Records.

She is also a former NextProf participant and NERS visitor.\n\nAbstract\nThe development of robust plasma facing components (PFCs) is one of the outstanding challenges to the realisation of electricity generation from nuclear fusion. The PFCs within a commercial tokamak fusion reactor will need to withstand extreme thermal and mechanical loads as well as neutron irradiation for extended periods of time. Currently\, liquid metals are being studied as a promising replacement for solid wall PFC’s because they are self-healing and have the ability to absorb plasma discharge that would otherwise reduce the efficiency of the core plasma. Extensive theoretical and experimental work is still needed to fully characterize the tokamak environment on liquid metal flows. Preliminary theoretical work has shown that under fusion-relevant conditions\, the poloidal magnetic field has a much stronger effect on the thin-film flow of liquid metal than the toroidal field. However\, the comparative magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) effects on the flow of thin-film liquid metal through poloidal and toroidal magnetic fields have yet to be experimentally quantified. \n\nThis talk details the design of an experimental facility to characterize the flow of a free surface\, thin-film (1 mm) of liquid metal in the presence of a poloidal and toroidal magnetic field of the order of 0.2 Tesla. A Helmholtz Coil is designed and manufactured to produce a region of roughly uniform magnetic field\, and the liquid metal Galinstan is used as the working fluid. The preservation of the Hartmann number (Ha)\, Reynolds number (Re) and aspect ratio (ε) at fusion relevant conditions guides the development of the physical parameters of this experiment. The experiment is designed to allow for high resolution liquid metal surface and depth analysis\, and eventually to explore the added effects of temperature gradients on liquid metal flow in thermoelectric magnetohydrodynamic (TEMHD) conditions.

Evidence from the Milk Market in Mexico DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nWe study a nationwide welfare program in Mexico in which the government\, in an effort to eliminate hunger\, sells milk to households at subsidized rates via a network of thousands of specialized \"ration stores.\" Such direct provision programs\, which exist in many countries\, often appear puzzling to economists\, as it seems unlikely that the government would have any comparative advantage relative to the private market in procuring and distributing milk. To understand direct provision\, we formulate and estimate an equilibrium model of the milk market\, and use it to compare this program with natural (budget-neutral) alternatives such as milk vouchers or unrestricted cash transfers. Using rich household-level panel data and the variation generated by the staggered entry of new government stores\, we show that market power by private milk suppliers is an important concern\, and that government-sold and privately-sold milk are close (though imperfect) substitutes. Consequently\, direct provision plays an important role in the milk market in Mexico by disciplining private-milk prices. Indeed\, our results suggest that\, in the absence of government milk\, private market prices would be 3% higher\, and that direct provision generates consumer welfare gains of 4% relative to milk vouchers and 2% relative to unrestricted cash transfers.\n\n* To join the seminar\, please contact at econ.events@umich.edu UID:87325-21641152@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/87325 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Economics,seminar LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211024T180003 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211022T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211022T235959 SUMMARY:Sporting Event:Coed Showcase Finals DESCRIPTION:Showcase event.

Etymologically rooted in the concept of “description\,” ekphrasis allows us to look more closely at the artwork\; but what are other approaches besides observations of the work at hand? This generative workshop focuses on mutating the ekprastic into new compositional and conceptual approaches.\n\nThe dynamic Douglas Kearney is a poet\, performer\, and librettist who has published six books that bridge thematic concerns such as politics\, African-American culture\, masks\, the Trickster figure\, and contemporary music. His most recent book\, *Sho* (Wave Books\, 2021)\, aims to hit crooked licks with straight-seeming sticks. \n\nNavigating the complex penetrability of language\, these poems are sonic in their espousal of Black vernacular strategies\, while examining histories and current events through the lyric\, brand new dances\, and other performances.\n\nKearney is also the author of *Buck Studies* (Fence Books\, 2016)\, which was awarded the CLMP Firecracker Award for Poetry\, the Theodore Roethke Memorial Poetry Award\, and the silver medal for the California Book Award in Poetry. BOMB says *Buck Studies* “remaps the 20th century in a project that is both lyrical and epic\, personal and historical.” Kearney describes the non-traditional layout of his poems as “performative typography.” On the relationship between his poetry and politics\, he notes: “For me\, the political is a part of how I see the world. My art making doesn’t begin without realizing who I am and what it means for me to be writing a poem and not doing something else.” Kearney’s collection of writing on poetics and performativity\, *Mess and Mess* (Noemi Press\, 2015)\, is a Small Press Distribution Handpicked Selection. In it\, Kearney writes\, “If my writing makes a mess of things\, it’s not to flee understanding\, but to map (mis-)understanding as a verb.” *Patter* (Red Hen Press\, 2014)\, Kearney’s third poetry collection\, examines miscarriage\, infertility\, and parenthood. The Black Automaton (Fence Books\, 2009) is a National Poetry Series selection\, which “flows from a consideration of urban speech\, negro spontaneity and book learning.” *Someone Took They Tongues* (Subito Press\, 2016) collects several of Kearney’s libretti\, including one written in a counterfeit Afro-diasporic language. He was the guest editor for *the 2015 Best American Experimental Writing*.\n\nKearney has received a Whiting Writers’ Award and the Cy Twombly Award for Poetry\, and was named a Notable New American Poet by the Poetry Society of America\, He has been awarded fellowships from Cave Canem and The Rauschenberg Foundation. His work has appeared in a number of journals\, including *Poetry*\, *Iowa Review*\, *Boston Review*\, and *Indiana Review*\, and anthologies\, including *Resisting Arrest: Poems to Stretch the Sky*\, *Best American Poetry*\, *Best American Experimental Writing*\, and *What I Say: Innovative Poetry by Black Poets in America*.\n\nRaised in Altadena\, CA\, he lives with his family a little west of Minneapolis\, MN and teaches creative writing at the University of Minnesota–Twin Cities.\n\nFor any questions about the event or to share accommodation needs\, please email kotziers@umich.edu-- we are eager to help ensure that this event is inclusive to you.

A decade later\, Ambiq has added intelligence to more than 100 million wearables\, hearables\, smart cards\, industrial sensors\, and medical devices. In this talk\, I’ll give some insight on the journey of building Ambiq from University-backed research project to 150+ person company building chips for the world’s biggest brands. I’ll walk through some of our latest low power circuit innovations and where we’re going next. I’ll also talk about what new innovations we need from you at the University of Michigan to enable 100 BILLION smart things.\n\nBio: \n\nScott Hanson is the Chief Technology Officer and founder of Ambiq. Scott invented SPOT\, Ambiq’s core sub-threshold technology platform\, to enable the world’s most energy-efficient chips during his PhD studies at the University of Michigan. He founded Ambiq in 2010 and led the development of the world record-setting Apollo\, Ambiq’s first flagship processor. Under Scott’s leadership\, Ambiq has shipped more than 100 million chips to the world’s top brands and has grown into the global leader in ultra-low power solutions. \n\nIn addition to his role as CTO\, he has variously played roles leading product definition and development\, managing production test\, and\, most importantly\, spending a great deal of time with customers to understand their needs and their vision. As a widely recognized innovator in low power circuits\, Scott today leads the development of Ambiq’s technology roadmap.\n\nScott’s pioneering work in sub-threshold design and picowatt processors has been widely published\, with more than 30 leading publications\, more than 20 patents on related technology\, and a wide variety of speaking engagements. Scott’s work was honored by the University of Michigan with the 2014 Arbor Networks PhD Research Impact Award and the 2020 ECE Alumni Rising Star Award and was honored by Ernst & Young as an Entrepreneur of the Year 2020 finalist.\n\nThis event is being offered hybrid.

Weaving together art production and exhibition\, community-based workshops and public speaking all with the intention of encouraging action towards making artificial intelligence systems more inclusive\, accessible and transparent. \n In this exhibition\, Dinkins will debut new and interactive installations and workshops that build on her concept of Afro-now-ism. In this poetic manifesto-like text\, Dinkins asks her audience\, particularly from communities of color\, to not only confront the litany of violences that humans have wielded upon one another based on the institutional and social constructions of race\, caste\, class\, and gender to maintain status quo and the current systems of power - but rise above it by taking action to start building the world that they desire. \nShe writes: “Instead of waiting to reach the proverbial promised land\, also known as a time in the future that may or may not manifest in your lifetime\, Afro-now-ism is taking the leap and the risks to imagine and define oneself beyond systemic oppression... For black people in particular\, it means conceiving yourself in the space of free and expansive thought and acting from a critically integrated space\, allowing for more community-sustaining work.” \n Through her installations and workshops Stephanie Dinkins: On Love &\; Data develops a dialogue with the audience on the hierarchies embedded within machine learning and AI architecture and one'\;s individual agency in transforming the algorithms within it. The audience will explore and participate in creating a more inclusive data-based narrative of what governance of the people\, by the people and for the people can look like in an AI mediated world where care is encoded within our digital civic system.

The early kingdoms of Israel and Edom are two well-known examples that have been prominent in recent scholarship. How exactly do we understand the development and nature of these polities at a theoretical level? How and when can we use archaeological evidence to do so\, and how does this relate to our historical sources\, including the Hebrew Bible? These are questions that are important\, but often overlooked by scholars. In this presentation I will discuss the history of scholarship on these questions and present an emic\, anthropological approach to tackling them\, focusing on two important areas: first\, the use of the household as a metaphor that structured the formation of political relationships in the early kingdom of Israel\; and second\, the central but previously-disregarded role that nomads played in the formation of the kingdom of Edom.

In 2019 during the month of October\, we launched the first ever Muslim Horror Film Festival: Halaloween. Halaloween screens horror films from across the globe that were made by\, for\, or about Muslims with the hopes of understanding ‘What scares Muslim audiences? Are horror movies halal?’. The previous Halaloween Festivals featured A Girl Walks Home Alone At Night\, Dachra\, Siccin 4 and more.\n\nThis year we are hosting the festival online and screening one film a week for the month of October. We're giving you the remote and allowing viewers to watch on their own time: each film will be available for a whole week. We're also inclusive of everyone's film needs: from new horror fans who close their eyes through most of the films\, to those who love the gore - we've got films for everyone! Check the Halaloween Horror Rating in the description of each film for a better sense on how scary each film will be.\n\nThe festival remains free\, and will come to you wherever you are (though some films may not be available in certain countries). Films will be unlocked online each week of October\, and viewers will have the week to watch each film. We'll wrap up the month of October with a live panel discussion on Muslim Horror\, the use of Islam and the Quran\, and how each region differs in its creation of horror films (sign up to our newsletter below to stay updated on this event\, or check our social media).\n\nThe 2021 Halaloween Lineup:\n\nOctober 1 - 122 | 2019 | Egypt\nOctober 8 - KL24: Zombies | 2017 | Malaysia\nOctober 15 - Kandisha | 2008 | Morocco\nOctober 22 - Madayen | 2016 | Saudi Arabia\nOctober 29 - Impetigore | 2019 | Indonesia\n\nHalaloween is brought to you by the Global Islamic Studies Center\, and cosponsored by the Middle Eastern Studies Department\, the Department of Film\, Television\, and Media\, the Center for Middle Eastern and North African Studies\, the Digital Islamic Studies Curriculum\, the Department of Asian Languages and Cultures\, Arab and Muslim American Studies\, the Humanities Institute\, the Center for Southeast Asian Studies\, the African Studies Center\, the Center for South Asian Studies\, the Center for Arab American Studies (UM-Dearborn)\, the Arab American National Museum\, and Shudder.\n\n\n\nLove Horror Films?

Our lab recently discovered that Fmr1 knockout (Fmr1-/-) mice\, a model of FXS\, manifest avoidance behaviors in response to repetitive tactile stimuli\, as well as delayed perceptual learning of a visual discrimination task. At the circuit level\, we found that hypoactivity of GABAergic parvalbumin interneurons (PV-INs) in the mutant mice in somatosensory and visual cortices. This hypofunction of PV interneurons begins at very early developmental stages in Fmr1-/- mice. Approaches that increase PV cell firing in Fmr1-/- mice could restore circuit function.\n\nHost: Sam Kwon\n\nVirtual\nLink/password in weekly announcements or email us at mcdb.seminar.info@umich.edu UID:85321-21626224@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/85321 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Basic Science,Biology,Biosciences,Bsbsigns,Research,Science LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211023T120002 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211022T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211022T235959 SUMMARY:Other:NIRCA Great Lakes Regional DESCRIPTION:Time to dominate our region!

It is a system of hierarchy and inequity\, primarily characterized by white supremacy—the preferential treatment\, privilege\, and power for white people at the expense of other racially oppressed people. It is also important to recognize that racism is a global issue and continues to be perpetuated in society across the globe and it manifests in many different ways at various levels. This anti-racism workshop in an abroad context aims to offer an entryway for the student to engage in observing how racism plays out in different societies outside the United States\, utilizing examples\, particularly media representation\, that may reflect deeper messages\, and what it means to be anti-racist in the abroad context for American students who have been abroad\, or may be visiting\, studying\, or traveling abroad.\nThis workshop will engage participants in the following activities:\n\nHaving a better understanding of the phrase “anti-racism”\nLearning about race and its nuances\nRecognizing how culture can shape how racism and power structures develop\nSeeing how media around the world uphold oppression in different ways\, and\nCreating action steps toward actively recognizing oppression abroad.\n\nThis workshop is part of the Rackham North Workshop Series although graduate students and postdoctoral fellows from all campuses are welcome to attend.\nThis workshop is designed for master’s students\, doctoral students\, and postdoctoral fellows.

Network science offers a formal language and analytic framework for describing patterns of brain connectivity\, whereby the brain can be treated as a network of interacting regions. I will highlight efforts from my lab that have incorporated tools from this rapidly growing science to further our understanding of how the brain’s large-scale network organization changes across human adult lifespan\, and how these brain network changes relate to an individual’s cognitive ability and brain function. In addition\, I will describe the more recent efforts from my lab which are beginning to reveal both the moderating role of an individual’s environment (defined by their socioeconomic status) on their trajectory of brain network decline during adulthood\, and the long-term clinical impacts of this decline. Collectively\, these observations are offering a new perspective towards understanding healthy and pathological aging\, and highlight a path for discovering vulnerabilities of brain aging that are linked to an individual’s past and present environmental exposures.

In this talk\, I apply the method of problematization to the practice of trans inclusion in universities today. I do this in two ways. First\, I analyze how it is that universities take trans life to be a problem such that certain trans-inclusive policies (and not others) are offered as a solution. Second\, I analyze how trans people choose to become a problem for universities such that (trans-inclusive) policies are an insufficient response. Critically evaluating the parameters of competing problematizations\, I close with some brief methodological reflections and practical recommendations.

But students only make real progress when they’re organized\, have the skills to be effective\, and have a strategic plan to get things done. That’s where we come in: For almost 50 years\, the Student PIRGs have been working to amplify the power of student activism. We help students make real change\, right now\, that will help all Americans to live meaningful lives and have a greener and healthier future.\n\nFor example\, PIRG students are working to ensure young people are full participants in the political process by helping to turn out the vote in local\, state and national elections through our New Voters Project. In the fall of 2020\, we made nearly 400\,000 peer-to-peer personal reminder contacts in the weeks leading up to Election Day. Our hard work paid off and we saw record turnout among young people. We’re keeping up this momentum and aim to help more than 50 campuses get to full voter participation by building strong coalitions on campus that reach all students — from the College Democrats and the College Republicans\, to Greek Life organizations and sports teams\, to multicultural groups and student governments.\n \nWe all want to live meaningful lives in a world that's greener and healthier. That's the future our campus organizers work to build every day. If you want a career working with great people\, gaining real skills and start making a difference on important issues right away\, this could be a good fit for you. \n\nLearn more at jobs.studentpirgs.org UID:88437-21653958@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/88437 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES: LOCATION: CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210920T104044 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211022T150000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211022T160000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:SynSem Discussion Group DESCRIPTION:The Syntax-Semantics group provides a forum within which Linguistics students and faculty at U-M and from neighboring universities can informally present or discuss and share their ongoing research in these domains.

She will present \"Investigating the Language of Gaslighting.\"\n\nABSTRACT\nGaslighting has been defined as “a type of psychological abuse aimed at making victims seem or feel ‘crazy\,’ creating a ‘surreal’ interpersonal environment” (Sweet 2019:1). The concept has gained popularity in the public sphere through online articles and videos\, though the bulk of the research on the topic has come from the field of Psychology\, and Sociology only more recently. Though gaslighting can take many forms from action to inaction\, one primary vehicle relates to a particular type of manipulative language use. In The Presentation of Self in Everyday Life (1959)\, Goffman argues that in order to participate in face-to-face talk\, we make inferences about what people mean in interactions (1959:2–3). Based on a Gricean paradigm\, the inferences we make to attribute meaning to utterances are based on the assumption that our interlocutor’s intent is to be maximally cooperative (Grice\, 1975). In gaslighting\, we know that speakers are crucially not being cooperative\, but this is generally only interpretable by the victim of the abuse. What makes gaslighting so difficult to identify\, and what can linguistic tools help us uncover to lead us closer to understanding this phenomenon? I argue that in some forms of gaslighting\, utterances appear cooperative and follow Gricean maxims through the exploitation of linguistic ambiguity and the difference between logical form and illocutionary force. Ultimately\, the damaging effects for victims of gaslighting are rooted in issues of language and power.\n\nThis talk seeks to establish a unifying definition of gaslighting examining our notion of who we researchers deem experts in the discussion. Furthermore\, the talk evaluates data collected through convenience sampling from online sources\, emails\, and audio recordings to identify the linguistic and pragmatic discursive strategies employed. I make the case that one salient pragmatic strategy in gaslighting is systematic and repetitive avoidance of the Question Under Discussion (QUD) which I define as topic shift. I make the case that topic shift contributes to why victims frequently feel “crazy” as accepting the new topic in conversation forces them to agree with realities that are not germane or true for them\, and any attempt to reintroduce the original QUD makes the victim appear uncooperative.

Participants will meet weekly on Fridays from 4-5 p.m.\n\nOur certified Speech-Language Pathologists use techniques to help non-native English speakers feel more confident in their communications – whether that’s giving a presentation\, or taking notes in a class with a native speaker who speaks fast. The goal of the program is not to eliminate a client’s accent\, but to enhance communication skills for greater self-assurance in any setting.\n\nParticipants set their own individual goals at the start of the workshop and will work to achieve those goals using a combination of small group activities and one-on-one interaction. If the group workshop does not work with your schedule\, please contact us\; individual consultations are available.\n\nWhat to Expect\n* An initial meeting focusing on setting your personal goals and objectives.\n* Both group and individual activities.\n* Exercises for improving articulation\, rate control\, and projection.\n* Increased confidence in social and professional interactions.\n* Guidance from a licensed Speech-Language Pathologist.\n\nRegister by filling out the form here: https://umich.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_bg6tZhShXwx5IfH\n\nIf you have questions or need assistance\, please call (734) 764-8440.\n\nDetails\nWhen: 4-5 p.m. Fridays\, September 10-November 19\, 2021 (no session on October 1)\nWhere: Virtually through Zoom\, with a potential for in-person meetings as needed or available.\nCost: $275.00\, plus purchase of Mastering the American Accent by Lisa Mojsin.

And while the black-cast musical is usually named as such\, the necessary complement on the other side of the color line—the white-cast musical—is typically granted the unmodified moniker “the musical.” (Eliding race in this way is\, of course\, a classic expression of whiteness.) This talk names the white-cast musical as such by identifying aesthetic\, structural\, and industrial forms of whiteness in the output of two major figures: Fred Astaire and Stephen Sondheim. Drawing on forthcoming work on both men\, I use a variety of methods to identify and describe Astaire’s and Sondheim’s distinct and particular types of whiteness. Adding precision to this inquiry\, I draw on digital humanities methods that quantify the extent to which whiteness dominates the history of the American musical. \n\nWatch via Zoom https://myumi.ch/gjwZq\npasscode 422436 UID:87752-21645625@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/87752 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Culture,Free,Lecture,Music LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211012T111151 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211022T173000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211022T183000 SUMMARY:Social / Informal Gathering:Community Meetups: Pumpkin Decorating DESCRIPTION:To get everybody in the mood for the spooky season\, we are going to be decorating artificial pumpkins!

THE SIZE OF DARKNESS dives headlong into states of unknowing\, catapulting performers through wild physicality and heroic abandon.

Attendees who do not comply will be asked to leave. Policies will be updated as circumstances and requirements change in our community. Please review The Ark’s current COVID-related information before attending a show.*\n\nBonded together by the members' common interest in a musically historical and honest sound\, Cold Tone Harvest formed in southeast Michigan in late 2008. The band comprises singer/songwriter Andrew Sigworth\, bassist Ozzie Andrews\, drummer/banjo player Brian Williams\, and guitarist Anthony Pace. Their union came to fruition much like the music itself did: formulated with patience and mixed with a rugged determination. The paradoxical name proves itself uncannily fitting\, as expertly delivered Americana tropes and soundscapes gradually crack at the seams\, revealing a shimmering sliver of something else entirely. Country-infused melodies and rhythms lace with a lush ambience often reserved for the loneliest of instrumental compositions. Rich and rugged baritone vocals\, clearly suited to whiskey songs and heartache anthems\, instead turn their howls and growls towards brave and poetic lyric territory rarely found in a common folk or bluegrass outing. Cold Tone Harvest rides a rare and beautiful line\, delivering a wall of sound that will grab the ear of the rowdiest music festival enthusiasts\, partnered with the textual eloquence and deeply layered arrangement that begs for solitary repeat listens.

Weaving together art production and exhibition\, community-based workshops and public speaking all with the intention of encouraging action towards making artificial intelligence systems more inclusive\, accessible and transparent. \n In this exhibition\, Dinkins will debut new and interactive installations and workshops that build on her concept of Afro-now-ism. In this poetic manifesto-like text\, Dinkins asks her audience\, particularly from communities of color\, to not only confront the litany of violences that humans have wielded upon one another based on the institutional and social constructions of race\, caste\, class\, and gender to maintain status quo and the current systems of power - but rise above it by taking action to start building the world that they desire. \nShe writes: “Instead of waiting to reach the proverbial promised land\, also known as a time in the future that may or may not manifest in your lifetime\, Afro-now-ism is taking the leap and the risks to imagine and define oneself beyond systemic oppression... For black people in particular\, it means conceiving yourself in the space of free and expansive thought and acting from a critically integrated space\, allowing for more community-sustaining work.” \n Through her installations and workshops Stephanie Dinkins: On Love &\; Data develops a dialogue with the audience on the hierarchies embedded within machine learning and AI architecture and one'\;s individual agency in transforming the algorithms within it. The audience will explore and participate in creating a more inclusive data-based narrative of what governance of the people\, by the people and for the people can look like in an AI mediated world where care is encoded within our digital civic system.

On March 12\, 2020\, my band and I received word that our tour was to be postponed until further notice due to the Covid pandemic\, I remember that day vividly. We had been rehearsing and preparing to tour behind the release of La Cruzada\, the Spanish version of The Crossing\, Don Antonio was to play guitar on that tour\, but was detained because of the outbreak of Covid in Italy. Upon being informed that the tour was postponed\, we decided to phone a friend in Milan to hear what effect the virus was having on their lives\; what he told us was frightening and truly drove home the severity and danger of contracting the virus.\n\nWe said goodbye without shaking hands or abrazos\, we were in shock from the news from Italy. That was roughly 17 months ago. I have not played a show since February 2020. When news of a vaccine was announced\, I like many of us began to feel a sense that we might get back to a safe and healthy world in which we might gather and celebrate music once again. I wanted nothing more than to return to doing what I’ve been doing for the last 45 years\, which is singing songs\, playing with good friends and rocking to the beat of the drums. \n\nWith the delta variant rearing its ugly head\, I’ve come to a very difficult decision and that is that I am not touring this year\, and will focus on writing my memoir\, writing new songs and working on a screenplay based on The Crossing. I feel I have a responsibility to not put you\, the audience\, in danger. If even one of you became ill as a result of attending my shows\, it would bear heavy on my soul. I’ve always felt rock n roll was a contact sport played in sweaty little clubs with loud guitars\, and the abandon that comes from the freedom and buzz of energy blasting from the stage until the wee hours of the morning. Until we can share those moments again without fear I’ll be listening to the birds sing with Nancy and the dogs. Please be safe and love one another.\n\nCrossing borders\, jumping barriers\, taking risks\, betting it all: that’s the path Alejandro Escovedo has been taking in his lifelong search for the heart of rock and roll.\n\nThe epic 17 song suite comprising The Crossing is about that journey: searching\, but not necessarily finding\, eyes and ears open all the way. Ranging from sweeping orchestral numbers to classic rock to bursts of 70s punk\, the collection finds Escovedo delving further into his lifelong musical journey across his most sonically diverse work yet.\n\n“This says more about me than any of my records without it being a record about me\,” Alejandro Escovedo \, “The Crossing”\n\nThe Crossing tells the tale of two boys\, one from Mexico\, one from Italy\, who meet in Texas to chase their American rock and roll dreams. They discover a not-so-welcoming\, very different place from the Promised Land they imagined\, with cameos from the likes of Wayne Kramer of the MC5 and James Williamson of the Stooges to show the boys the way.\n\nA Mexican-American kid with Texas roots and California raising taking on immigration issues in two continents with an Italian band\, no less\, makes perfect sense — if you know Alejandro Escovedo. Forever the curious explorer\, he’s been a punk of the rebel kind in The Nuns\, a cowpunk of the non-Western variety in Rank and File\, commander of a guitar army in The True Believers\, an orchestral conductor in his solo work\, and a sensitive boy who has outrun death\, demons\, lust\, and lost love in his songs. He has collaborated with Bruce Springsteen\, John Cale\, Los Lobos\, Peter Buck & Scott McCaughey\, Tony Visconti\, and Chuck Prophet. No Depression magazine declared him the Artist of the Decade.\n\nTwo years ago\, with a string of European tour dates booked\, he went looking for a band from the Continent to back him up. Don Antonio\, a seasoned\, all-instrumental band from Modigliana \, in the northern Italian province of Emilia-Romagna\, came highly recommended\, but Alejandro wasn’t so sure at first. “They didn’t look like a rock and roll band\,” he says. Then he started asking around. Their reputation sealed the deal. “Turns out they’d played with all my friends – Dan Stuart\, Howe Gelb\, Steve Wynn. Everybody knew them. Apparently\, at one time or another\, everybody toured with them as a band\, made friends with them\, or played the festival they put on every year.”\n\nHe sent the band a list of thirty songs before meeting up in Modigliana . “We had dinner\,” Alejandro says. “We rehearsed a day and a half\, then did 35 gigs in 40 days in ten different countries across Europe.\n\n“I fell in love with them.”\n\nTwo months later\, he was back for more tour dates including the south of Italy.\n\n“That’s when it hit me how similar Mexican culture and Italian culture can be\, especially in the south where the food is very spicy\, the language is very different\, and the desert meets the ocean.”\n\nHe learned about a deeper history. His new bandmates teased him for thinking 200 years was a long time.\n\nThe stories Alejandro Escovedo has been telling about the great migration across North America over the past 150 years mirrors stories that have been playing out for centuries in Europe\, Africa\, and the Middle East. “It’s ancient\,” he says. “It’s been going on for centuries. It’s encoded in the DNA of all of us.”\n\nThe stories and the melding of music led the band and the artist to extend the collaboration into the studio. “I started developing this idea where a young boy from southern Italy named Salvo and a young boy from Mexico named Diego would meet in South Texas\,” Alejandro says. “They were looking for the America they had heard about\, seen in films\, heard on records\,” he says. “They go looking for the MC5\, the Stooges\, the Dolls\, the Ramones\, all the American bands that they love. They go looking for the authors\, Kerouac and Ginsberg.” Without saying it\, they come across a very conservative America. “They find they are in a different America\, one that wasn’t as open and free as they had believed it was going to be.” But the story is not just that of Diego and Salvo\, it also mirrors that of Alejandro and the co-writer of his songs Antonio Gramentieri.\n\nAntonio\, Don Antonio’s guitarist and leader\, “speaks very good English\, he’s well read\, an ex-music journalist” Alejandro says. “He was easy to communicate with.” The album was recorded in a month at a farmhouse in Villafranca\, Italy with Brian Deck co-producing (Modest Mouse\, Gomez\, Iron & Wine). “Playing with these guys\, it came out naturally\, it was coming out without any thought at all. The things with Italians and their music is\, they’re always reaching for melody. It’s always very romantic\, even when it’s tragic.” The band also features Denis Valentini on bass\, Matteo Monti on drums\, Franz Valtieri and Gianni Perinelli on horns plus Nicola Peruch on keyboards.\n\n“My thoughts seem to fit very well with their kind of playing\, the instrumentation we had\, and the way they approach it\,” Alejandro says. “They’re not a rock band. They aren’t a band that grew up playing New York Dolls covers. They grew up playing their own cinematic music. When we get into this orchestral thing\, they totally embrace it.”\n\nKeeping the Escovedo edge sharp on The Crossing are his personal heroes Williamson and Kramer. Additional guests include Peter Perrett and John Perry from UK cult band The Only Ones\, recording together for the first time since 1980. Joe Ely features on both his own track\, “Silver City\,” as well as the title track. Rio Navidad – a spoken word track about a Texan ranger – was written by novelist and bandleader Willy Vlautin\, and read by his bandmate Freddy Trujillo from Richmond Fontaine and The Delines.\n\n“I wanted them in there because Salvo and Diego were looking for that attitude\, that kind of perspective in rock and roll\,” Alejandro says. “There’s a line in ‘Sonica USA:’ “I saw the Zeroes and they looked like me/This is the America I want to be/Anarchy in Hollywood/land of the free.’\n\n“When we were playing as the True Believers early on [in the 1980s] we’d play San Marcos\, San Antonio [Texas] and get all these Chicano kids in denim vests and Iron Maiden patches. I remember thinking they were into us\, not necessarily for the music\, but for the fact we were there on stage. They loved that we were doing what we were doing. I wanted to bring the Zeros into it because to me the Zeros were so different than any other band that was happening at the time.\n\n“Salvo and Diego see the Plugz at Larchmont Hall\, Cypress Hill – they love everything that has something they can relate to\,” says Escovedo. “Seeing Love\, the band\, was like that to me. They were Chicano\, black\, white – there weren’t a lot of bands like that. Sam the Sham\, Thee Midnighters\, the Sir Douglas Quintet. All of that is what I experienced as a kid.\n\n“The Crossing has parts of everything I’ve done and everything I want to do\,” Alejandro says. “Lyrically\, I say a lot of things I’ve never said\, that I held back on. ‘Teenage Luggage’ is about the racism in music and things I’ve encountered along the way\, the kinds of things I grew up with as a kid in Orange County\, trying to be a surfer. Surfers hated Mexicans.”\n\nAlejandro has lived The Crossing. Now he invites you to join Salvo and Diego as they blaze their trail across America. It’s a journey like none you’ve experienced before UID:84348-21623424@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/84348 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES: LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210928T134623 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211023T200000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211023T220000 SUMMARY:Performance:Dick Siegel with bassist Dave Roof “When the Sumac is on Fire!” DESCRIPTION:*Please review The Ark’s current COVID-related information and policies before purchasing a ticket and again before attending a show.

Brief remarks by Dean Jonathan Massey and project lead Arash Adel will be followed by a ribbon cutting to open this state-of-the-art timber structure. \n\nRFS is a robotically fabricated timber pavilion that explores new responsible and precise ways of creating our built environment. Contributing to outlooks for sustainable and low-carbon construction\, RFS was built and sited on the Matthaei Botanical Gardens in Ann Arbor through robot and human collaboration using standard off-the-shelf lumber that was regionally sourced. The structure was designed and fabricated by ADR Laboratory (Taubman College Assistant Professor Arash Adel)\, research assistants\, and Taubman College students\, employing Taubman College's state-of-the-art robotic fabrication facilities. This outdoor structure offers new public gathering points while maintaining an open-air condition marked by pandemic times.\n\nCompleting RFS elevated the ongoing research in robotic timber construction to the scale and complexities of full and complete building systems beyond the laboratory. The faculty leadership is fully invested in advancing the larger questions of how and why we make\, and this project explores and tests new ways of building the future. Join us to learn more and to be among the first to visit the pavilion.

Stamps School of Art and Design Professor of Art Susan Crowell presents\, among other works\, a series of wall plaques depicting endangered species. In Professor Crowell's effort to\, \"...question our interactions with the animal world and our impact upon it\,\" she has installed images of elephants and donkeys as protagonists and antagonists in political struggle\, and polar bears as victims of global warming. \n\n\"Animal/ Vegetable/Mineral presents an occasion to speak about my most compelling interests—plants and animals--within the mineral rubrics of clay\,\" she says.\n\nThis event is free and open to the public. Masks are required for all attendees. Vaccination is not required but highly encouraged. All attendees must complete a short questionnaire at https://responsiblue.umich.edu/sign-in before entering East Quadrangle.\n\nSusan Crowell is Professor of Art at the University of Michigan\, where she teaches ceramics and holds a joint appointment in the Residential College and the Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design. A Fulbright Scholar\, she studied architectural ceramics at Centro Internazionale di Ceramica in Rome and directed and taught in the University of Michigan’s Program in Florence. Prof. Crowell conducts research and exhibits her work locally\, nationally and internationally. She has presented projects and exhibitions in Canada (at Banff)\, Japan (at Shigaraki and Miyazaki)\, Italy (Rome\, Venice and Florence)\, Taiwan\, Denmark and China\, as well as in France and the United States\, and she has participated in a variety of international venues and residencies. In 2005 Crowell published I Compianti Sul Christo Morto: Lamentation Groupings in Northern Italy to illuminate the distinguished history of ceramic materials in Quattrocento devotional and didactic sculpture\, and to bring an understanding of their use and potential to contemporary ceramics practitioners. In April of 2016 Prof. Crowell exhibited her work in the conservatories of the Matthaei Botanical Gardens at the University of Michigan\, and in May of 2017\, at the Alden Dow Gardens in Midland\, MI. In 2018 she conducted residencies and research at the Jean Noble Parsons Center for the Study of Art and Science in northern Michigan\, and at A.I.R. Vallauris in Vallauris\, France\, where she exhibited her work in La chapelle de la place Lisnard that October.\n \nFor ten years\, Crowell’s research and artistic practice has focused upon pollen forms and the process of pollination. Deploying her appreciation of the role of technology in revealing the natural world\, she applies the science and aesthetics of botany and apiculture toward the creation of ceramic sculpture\, using cast and hand-built forms. In doing so\, Prof. Crowell presents an expanded view of pollen within the problematics of industrialized honey production\, global commerce in apicultural products\, and genetically modified crops.. More recently\, she has created Thinning the Herd\, an installation of animal forms that addresses endangered species\, and Oppositional\, a commentary on contemporary political behavior in the United States.

A Case in Jewish Diversity in the Second Temple Period DESCRIPTION:Conference Chairs: Gabriele Boccaccini\; Lisa Bowens\; Emma Wasserman\; Loren Stuckenbruck\n\nSecretary: Joshua Scott\n\nPaul of Tarsus was born\, lived and died a Jew. Raised as a Pharisee\, he then joined the early Jesus movement\, a first-century Jewish apocalyptic and messianic group. Paul became one of the most vocal leaders of the new movement and promoted its expansion among the gentiles. The conference\, organized by the Enoch Seminar and the Frankel Institute for Advanced Judaic Studies\, aims to move Pauline research to a further stage\, beyond reclaiming Paul to Second Temple Judaism and proving that “he was not Lutheran.” By taking Paul’s Jewishness as a shared starting point\, the conference explores the figure of Paul within Second Temple Judaism in a line of continuity with the Jewish apocalyptic tradition (and the Enochic tradition in particular)\, not as an apostate of Judaism but as part of the vibrant Jewish diversity of the time.\n\nThe conference will not be aimed at a general audience\, but will instead bring together a group of selected specialists. It will be a workshop with discussion sessions introduced by oral presentations by specialists\, more than a series of papers. The goal is to gather all major specialists working in the field and have plenty of time for discussion. \n\nFor more information\, contact the conference secretary\, Joshua Scott (scottjos@umich.edu).\n\nRegister for this virtual event here: https://tinyurl.com/p6kr29j5\n\nParticipation is limited to members of academia.

The Past\, Present\, and Future of LGBT Activism in Singapore: A Roundtable on Pink Dot DESCRIPTION:Free and open to the public. Register at: http://myumi.ch/0W3r9\n\nThis roundtable panel discusses the success and limits of an annual LGBT event called Pink Dot that began in Singapore\, a city-state that imposes significant barriers to political organizing. The first decade of Pink Dot has now come to an end\, but it is clear that the annual event has had a significant impact in terms of increased visibility for a marginalized community. Yet\, despite the successes of Pink Dot\, very little has concretely changed in Singapore for LGBT individuals. \n\nIn July 2021\, the Journal of Language and Sexuality (J. Lang. Sex.) published the first special issue dedicated to Pink Dot. In exploring the use of language in the Pink Dot movement\, the articles in this special issue simultaneously grapple with the past decade of Pink Dot and explore whether LGBT activism in Singapore might be evolving beyond the relatively ‘acceptable’ approach of Pink Dot’s strategic assimilationism. \n\nThe panel will be joined by the acclaimed Singaporean poet Alfian Sa’at\, Professor Michelle Lazar of the National University of Singapore\, and the three editors of the J. Lang. Sex. Professor Adi Saleem Bharat of the University of Michigan\, Professor Robert Phillips of Ball State University\, and Ph.D. student candidate Pavan Mano of King’s College London.\n\nPANELISTS:\n\nAlfian Sa’at is the resident playwright of Wild Rice. Some of his queer-themed plays include *Dreamplay: Asian Boys Vol. 1*\, *Landmarks: Asian Boys Vol. 2*\, *Happy Endings: Asian Boys Vol. 3*\, and *The Insiders*. In 2012\, he published a collection of queer poetry called *The Invisible Manuscript*. He was also part of the original committee that organized the first *Pink Dot* in 2009.\n \nMichelle Lazar is associate professor and head of the Department of English Language & Literature at the National University of Singapore. With research interests in critical discourse studies and multimodality\, Lazar has published widely in the areas of gender\, sexuality\, media\, and politics. She was the recipient of the 2018 IGALA Best Article Award for her research on the discourse of homonationalism in a global southern context.\n \nRobert Phillips is an associate professor of anthropology at Ball State University. He lectures on ethnographic methods and the anthropology of religion. Much of his empirical research was conducted in India and Singapore\, focusing on the intersection of religion\, technology\, and cultural change. Most recently\, Phillips has been conducting research with Jewish\, queer\, and BIPOC communities to understand how and why they employ alternative healthcare models in the healing of individual and communal trauma.\n \nPavan Mano is a PhD candidate in the Department of English at King’s College London. He works primarily in the cultural studies tradition at the intersections of language and literature. His current research deals with the heteronormativity and the politics of kinship\, race\, nationalism\, and the operation of xenology produced as a function of these logics.\n \nAdi Saleem Bharat is an LSA Collegiate Fellow and\, from Fall 2022\, an assistant professor in the Department of Romance Languages and Literatures at the University of Michigan.

Part One explores the myths and stories that are in the DNA of our culture. Part Two looks at women and power and redefines what it means to be courageous\, daring\, and strong. And Part Three offers “A Toolbox for Inner Strength.” \nWritten in a fun and delightful way\, Lesser points out many truths about how out of balance the United States is\, and also believes in humanity's potential to rise to the challenges of our times. Women must be a big part of this. Instructors Bernadette Beach and Sigrid Herman will lead this Study Group.\nThis study group will meet on Mondays for six weeks beginning on October 25. Preregistration is required via the OLLI website or phone. A link to access the study group will be e-mailed prior to the first session.

But students only make real progress when they’re organized\, have the skills to be effective\, and have a strategic plan to get things done. That’s where we come in: For almost 50 years\, the Student PIRGs have been working to amplify the power of student activism. We help students make real change\, right now\, that will help all Americans to live meaningful lives and have a greener and healthier future.\n\nFor example\, PIRG students are working to ensure young people are full participants in the political process by helping to turn out the vote in local\, state and national elections through our New Voters Project. In the fall of 2020\, we made nearly 400\,000 peer-to-peer personal reminder contacts in the weeks leading up to Election Day. Our hard work paid off and we saw record turnout among young people. We’re keeping up this momentum and aim to help more than 50 campuses get to full voter participation by building strong coalitions on campus that reach all students — from the College Democrats and the College Republicans\, to Greek Life organizations and sports teams\, to multicultural groups and student governments.\n \nWe all want to live meaningful lives in a world that's greener and healthier. That's the future our campus organizers work to build every day. If you want a career working with great people\, gaining real skills and start making a difference on important issues right away\, this could be a good fit for you. \n\nLearn more at jobs.studentpirgs.org UID:88434-21653955@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/88434 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES: LOCATION: CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211020T165201 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211025T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211025T160000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:UJIMA: Collective Work and Responsibility at the University of Michigan DESCRIPTION:This exhibit focuses on the concept of Ujima (collective work and responsibility in Swahili) as it pertains to activism on the campus of the University of Michigan over the years. By seeing how collective actions can lead to powerful movements\, the exhibit presents a chronological display demonstrating the importance of calling for change. \nThe majority of photos and articles originate from campus resources\, including the Bentley Historical Library\, the Michigan Daily's archives and other original materials. \nUJIMA is dedicated to the students\, faculty\, staff\, and alumni of the University of Michigan who envisioned and exemplified the principle of Ujima to bring about a more equitable and inclusive university through their thoughts and actions. \nThere is also a virtual audio/visual tour of the exhibit which can be accessed at:myumi.ch/7ZQn0 UID:88484-21654251@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/88484 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Activism,african american,african and african american studies,african and afroamerican studies,African Diaspora,Black America,black history,Blackness,Civil Rights,daas,Equity,Exhibition,Inclusion,university of michigan history LOCATION:Haven Hall - G648 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211018T114845 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211025T113000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211025T124500 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Social\, Behavioral and Experimental Economics (SBEE) Seminar: A Lot of Diversity is Good. A Little Diversity..... On the Possibility of Collectively Accurate Classifications: A Cognitive/Computational Unpacking of Condorcet DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nIn this talk\, I will provide a cognitive/computational unpacking of the Condorcet Jury Theorem. The core of the talk will focus on a paper co-authored with Lu Hong\, in which we construct a formal framework to study group accuracy on classification tasks. In the paper\, we derive necessary and sufficient conditions for perfect accuracy and then characterize a group’s ability to make accurate classifications as a function of its diversity\, size\, and the accuracy of its members. For groups relying on the majority rule\, we show that increasing individual accuracy produces a setwise increase in collective accuracy\, but that\, contrary to intuition\, increases in group size do not. We further show that increasing diversity\, as measured by pairwise disagreement\, only guarantees increased accuracy for highly diverse groups. Finally\, we derive a general condition for increasing group size to raise or lower expected accuracy assuming individuals drawn from a population. In addition to the paper\, I will reframe the model using disciplinary lenses to discuss the potential for making good decision in complex environments.\n\n(To attend this online event\, please complete the form to receive email instructions and announcements for this and future SBEE Seminars.)

Previous research has indicated that children are unlikely to abide by “Do’s and Don’ts” without a causal understanding of relevant processes. To that end\, we investigated 5–12-year-old children’s (and their parents’) knowledge of COVID-19 transmission. In this talk\, I will present preliminary data on common misconceptions children hold about COVID-19 transmission and discuss points of interest for future investigations and interventions.

Cell Phone Access and Epidemic Containment Efforts DESCRIPTION:This talk examines the impact of mobile phone access on the containment of an epidemic. Speaker Elisa Maffioli et al. study this question in the context of the 2014 Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) outbreak in Liberia. They found that having access to cell phone coverage leads to a 10.8 percentage point reduction in the likelihood that a village has an EVD case. Results from this novel survey collected following the epidemic suggest that this is mostly explained by cellphone access facilitating emergency care provision rather than improving access to outbreak-related information. \n\nDr. Maffioli is an Assistant Professor at the Department of Health Management and Policy\, at the University of Michigan School of Public Health. Her research is in development economics\, health economics and political economy\, with a focus on infectious diseases\, maternal and child health\, and nutrition in lower income countries. She is currently working in Liberia\, Myanmar\, Brazil\, Mozambique and Nigeria\, and has also conducted research in Lesotho\, Kenya and India. \n\n\nMichigan Population Studies Center (PSC) Brown Bag seminars highlight recent research in population studies and serve as a focal point for building our research community.\n\nhttps://www.psc.isr.umich.edu/events/brown-bag/ UID:88052-21648952@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/88052 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Africa,brown bag,Covid-19 Research,Data,Data Science,Discussion,Free,Graduate and Professional Students,Health,Health Data,Humanities,Information and Technology,Lecture,Livestream,Multidisciplinary Design,Online,Population Studies Center,Public Health,Research,Social Impact,Social Sciences,Sociology,Survey Research LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211020T123941 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211025T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211025T130000 SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:PICS Career Event.

The NA62 experiment at the CERN SPS was designed to measure BR(K + → π +νν) with a precision of about 10%. The key features of the experiment include ultrafast tracking for both beam and secondary particles\, redundant particle identification\, hermetic photon vetoes\, and high-performance electromagnetic calorimetry. The experiment took data from 2016–2018 before LHC Long Shutdown 2\, obtaining a measurement of BR(K + → π + νν) in agreement with the Standard Model prediction\, establishing the existence of the decay at the 3.4σ level and providing new constraints on models for physics beyond the Standard Model. The data collected in 2016–2018 correspond to 20% of the expected total\; the experiment restarted data taking in July 2021 and will be completed in 2024. Over the longer term\, the continued availability of the primary proton beam from the CERN SPS through at least 2036 provides an opportunity for an integrated program for precise measurements of rare kaon decays\, both charged and neutral\, to give clear insight into the flavor structure of new physics. This program will make use of a significantly upgraded NA62-like setup with detectors that can be reconfigured and reused in various experimental stages\, including a measurement of BR(K + → π + νν) to ∼5%\, a measurement of BR(KL → π 0 νν) to ∼20% (KLEVER)\, and a program with a neutral beam and downstream detectors for tracking and particle identification to allow the study of decays such as KL → π^0 \ell^+ \ell^−. In this seminar\, the recent results from NA62 will be reviewed\, and future directions for the kaon program at CERN will be described.\n UID:86657-21635381@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/86657 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Physics,Science LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211013T152545 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211025T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211025T173000 SUMMARY:Social / Informal Gathering:Pumpkins and Spice DESCRIPTION:Donuts\, cider\, and swag* of the season.

RoboTruckers: The Double Threat of AI for Low-Wage Work DESCRIPTION:Much attention has been paid to the risk artificial intelligence poses to employment\, particularly in low-wage industries. The question has invited well-placed concern from policymakers\, as the prospect of millions of low-skilled workers finding themselves suddenly without employment brings with it the potential for tremendous social and economic disruption. Long-haul truck driving is perceived as a prime target for such displacement\, due to the fast-developing technical capabilities of autonomous vehicles (many of which lend themselves to the specific needs of truck driving)\, characteristics of trucking labor\, and the political economy of the industry. In most of the public rhetoric about the threat of the self-driving truck\, the trucker is seen as a displaced party. He is displaced both physically and economically: removed from the cab of the truck\, and from his means of economic provision. The robot has replaced his imperfect\, disobedient\, tired\, and inefficient body\, rendering him redundant\, irrelevant\, and jobless. But the reality is more complicated. The intrusion of automation into the truck cab certainly presents a threat to the trucker\, but the threat is not solely or even primarily experienced\, as it is so often described\, as displacement. The trucker is still in the cab\, doing the work of truck driving—but he is joined there by intelligent systems that monitor his body directly. Hats that monitor his brain waves and head position\, vests that track his heart rate\, cameras trained on his eyelids for signs of fatigue or inattention: these systems flash lights in his face\, jolt his seat\, and send reports to his dispatcher or even his family members should the trucker’s focus waver. As more trucking firms integrate such technologies into their safety programs\, truckers are not being displaced by intelligent systems so much as they are experiencing the emergence of intelligent systems as a compelled hybridization\, a very intimate incursion into their work and bodies. This paper considers the dual\, conflicting narratives of job replacement by robots and of bodily integration with robots\, to assess the true range of AI's potential effects on low-wage work.\n\nKaren Levy is an Assistant Professor of Information Science at Cornell University and Associated Faculty at Cornell Law School.

Drawing its inspiration in part from The Fierce Urgency of Now: Improvisation\, Rights\, and the Ethics of Cocreation\, a collaboratively-authored book by Daniel Fischlin\, George Lipsitz\, and Ajay Heble\, this series of online roundtable conversations will explore Improvisation in the arts as a scene of encounter. What happens when artists come together to improvise\, and what might this scene of encounter tell us about the staging and negotiation of difference: between artists\, between artists and audiences\, between the present moment and the varied histories and contexts that gave rise to it? \n\nModerated by Ajay Heble\, and presented in association with Edgefest\, the focus of the first panel is FESTIVALS\, and brings together three leaders in the curatorial field. Vocalist Deanna Relyea was the founder of Kerrytown Concert House and is the current Artistic Director of Edgefest\, Michigan’s long running avant-jazz festival. Dancer\, poet and organizer of movement\, music and causes Patricia Nicholson Parker has developed her work within the aesthetic of free jazz. Nicholson founded Arts For Art and the Vision Festival to promote and advocate for free jazz. Rainbow Robert is a relentless proponent of strange\, beautiful\, heavy music. She has been deeply involved with the jazz community in Canada for the past two decades through her work with Coastal Jazz\, and as producer of the Vancouver International Jazz Festival\, where she currently serves in the role of Managing Artistic Director. \n\nScholar-in-Residence Ajay Heble is Director of the International Institute for Critical Studies in Improvisation and Professor of English in the School of English and Theatre Studies at the University of Guelph. He is the author or editor of several books\, and a founding co-editor of the journal Critical Studies in Improvisation/Études critiques en improvisation (www.criticalimprov.com ). He was the Project Director for Improvisation\, Community\, and Social Practice\, a large-scale Major Collaborative Research Initiative\, funded by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada. As the Founder and Artistic Director of the Guelph Jazz Festival\, Heble has jolted the citizens of Guelph into an appreciation of improvised and avant-garde music and delighted aficionados from around the world with his innovative and daring programming. \n\nIf you require accommodation to participate in CWPS events\, please contact the Center for World Performance Studies\, at 734-936-2777 or cwps.information@umich.edu.

Please review The Ark’s current COVID-related information before attending a show.*\n\nSteve Forbert is one of the few artists who can mesmerize a crowd with nothing but a distinctive voice\, an acoustic guitar and his trusty harmonica slung around his neck. More than four decades have passed since Forbert first made his way to New York City from Meridian\, Mississippi and his intimate verbal imagery\, paired with a roots-rock musical approach\, struck a chord with millions of people during the transitional period between ‘70s folk-rock and ‘80s New Wave.\n\n​Forbert’s debut album\, ‘Alive On Arrival’\, became one of 1978's most acclaimed records. Rolling Stone contributing editor David Wild recently reflected that “now or then\, you would be hard-pressed to find a debut effort that was simultaneously as fresh and accomplished\,” comparing it to “a great first novel by a young author who somehow managed to split the difference between Mark Twain and J.D. Salinger.”\n\nOne Track from that album\, “Grand Central Station\, March 18\, 1977”\, earned him a spot on the 2014 Village Voice list of The 60 Best Songs Ever Written About New York City\, along with many musical heavyweights like Jim Croce\, Tom Waits and Frank Sinatra. \n\n​Hailed by The New York Times as “an introspective\, homespun philosopher\,” Forbert's second album\, Jackrabbit Slim\, released in 1979 achieved RIAA Gold record status on the strength of its hit single “Romeo’s Tune\,” which reached #11 on the Billboard charts and helped cement his status as a genuine craftsman. Jackrabbit Slim was re-mastered and re-released in 2019 by Blue Rose Music to commemorate its 40th anniversary.\n\n​Forbert’s songs have been covered by a wide range of artists\, from Keith Urban and Rosanne Cash to Marty Stuart and John Popper. Forbert also appeared opposite Cyndi Lauper in her iconic music video for ‘Girls Just Wanna Have Fun’! \n\n​Forbert has released 20 studio albums\, including a Grammy-nominated tribute to Mississippi legend\, Jimmie Rodgers. In 2017\, An American Troubadour: The Songs of Steve Forbert was released\, featuring renowned musicians like John Oates and Robert Earl Keen\, performing his songs.\n\n​In 2018\, Forbert published his memoir Big City Cat: My Life in Folk-Rock.  “Like the earlier Bob Dylan and Patti Smith books\, Forbert has a warm way of describing the pull of NYC and the ensuing challenges of getting traction\, against the context of a small-town upbringing. He offers a sparkling observation about the pull of music as excellent as any I have seen\,” says Entertainment Today.\n\n​This year\, Forbert was the recipient of the 2020 Governor’s Arts Award in his home state of Mississippi\, having already been inducted into the  Mississippi Musician’s Hall of Fame in 2016.\n\n​Anyone who reviews Steve's catalog of music can see the writer in the musician. His songs are as literary as they are musically vibrant. Brutally honest lyrics delivered with sensitivity create an uncommon trust with his listeners. Excelling in every decade of his career\, Forbert exemplifies the heart and soul of the troubadour tradition. \n\n​On May 1\, 2020 via Blue Rose Music\, Steve will release a cover record of 11 of his favorite folk-rock songs\, entitled Early Morning Rain. \"I recorded this album in an attempt to renew people's appreciation for the fine craftsmanship these songs represent\,\" says Forbert\, \"and as an acknowledgement of how much good ‘ol songs like these have meant to me.”\n\n​Forbert continues to tour extensively\, both nationally and internationally.

Stamps School of Art and Design Professor of Art Susan Crowell presents\, among other works\, a series of wall plaques depicting endangered species. In Professor Crowell's effort to\, \"...question our interactions with the animal world and our impact upon it\,\" she has installed images of elephants and donkeys as protagonists and antagonists in political struggle\, and polar bears as victims of global warming. \n\n\"Animal/ Vegetable/Mineral presents an occasion to speak about my most compelling interests—plants and animals--within the mineral rubrics of clay\,\" she says.\n\nThis event is free and open to the public. Masks are required for all attendees. Vaccination is not required but highly encouraged. All attendees must complete a short questionnaire at https://responsiblue.umich.edu/sign-in before entering East Quadrangle.\n\nSusan Crowell is Professor of Art at the University of Michigan\, where she teaches ceramics and holds a joint appointment in the Residential College and the Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design. A Fulbright Scholar\, she studied architectural ceramics at Centro Internazionale di Ceramica in Rome and directed and taught in the University of Michigan’s Program in Florence. Prof. Crowell conducts research and exhibits her work locally\, nationally and internationally. She has presented projects and exhibitions in Canada (at Banff)\, Japan (at Shigaraki and Miyazaki)\, Italy (Rome\, Venice and Florence)\, Taiwan\, Denmark and China\, as well as in France and the United States\, and she has participated in a variety of international venues and residencies. In 2005 Crowell published I Compianti Sul Christo Morto: Lamentation Groupings in Northern Italy to illuminate the distinguished history of ceramic materials in Quattrocento devotional and didactic sculpture\, and to bring an understanding of their use and potential to contemporary ceramics practitioners. In April of 2016 Prof. Crowell exhibited her work in the conservatories of the Matthaei Botanical Gardens at the University of Michigan\, and in May of 2017\, at the Alden Dow Gardens in Midland\, MI. In 2018 she conducted residencies and research at the Jean Noble Parsons Center for the Study of Art and Science in northern Michigan\, and at A.I.R. Vallauris in Vallauris\, France\, where she exhibited her work in La chapelle de la place Lisnard that October.\n \nFor ten years\, Crowell’s research and artistic practice has focused upon pollen forms and the process of pollination. Deploying her appreciation of the role of technology in revealing the natural world\, she applies the science and aesthetics of botany and apiculture toward the creation of ceramic sculpture\, using cast and hand-built forms. In doing so\, Prof. Crowell presents an expanded view of pollen within the problematics of industrialized honey production\, global commerce in apicultural products\, and genetically modified crops.. More recently\, she has created Thinning the Herd\, an installation of animal forms that addresses endangered species\, and Oppositional\, a commentary on contemporary political behavior in the United States.

A Case in Jewish Diversity in the Second Temple Period DESCRIPTION:Conference Chairs: Gabriele Boccaccini\; Lisa Bowens\; Emma Wasserman\; Loren Stuckenbruck\n\nSecretary: Joshua Scott\n\nPaul of Tarsus was born\, lived and died a Jew. Raised as a Pharisee\, he then joined the early Jesus movement\, a first-century Jewish apocalyptic and messianic group. Paul became one of the most vocal leaders of the new movement and promoted its expansion among the gentiles. The conference\, organized by the Enoch Seminar and the Frankel Institute for Advanced Judaic Studies\, aims to move Pauline research to a further stage\, beyond reclaiming Paul to Second Temple Judaism and proving that “he was not Lutheran.” By taking Paul’s Jewishness as a shared starting point\, the conference explores the figure of Paul within Second Temple Judaism in a line of continuity with the Jewish apocalyptic tradition (and the Enochic tradition in particular)\, not as an apostate of Judaism but as part of the vibrant Jewish diversity of the time.\n\nThe conference will not be aimed at a general audience\, but will instead bring together a group of selected specialists. It will be a workshop with discussion sessions introduced by oral presentations by specialists\, more than a series of papers. The goal is to gather all major specialists working in the field and have plenty of time for discussion. \n\nFor more information\, contact the conference secretary\, Joshua Scott (scottjos@umich.edu).\n\nRegister for this virtual event here: https://tinyurl.com/p6kr29j5\n\nParticipation is limited to members of academia.

DESCRIPTION:ZOOM MEETING \nhttps://umich.zoom.us/j/96616169868 \nPasscode: CSCS\n\nAbstract: Models of microbial interactions have been developed in recent years\, drawing from taxonomic abundances via amplicon sequencing. Many of these models assume that dynamics through time are primarily driven by pairwise interactions between taxa\, but with the drawback that how these interaction strengths may change with environmental context is less than clear. Here we model the consumption and exchange of resources explicitly\, and show that these processes imply new results and principles for the stability of ecological communities. We go on to develop stochastic versions of these models\, and demonstrate a transition between regimes that resemble neutral and niche-dominated dynamics and static patterns. Finally\, I’ll show some recent work on more general stochastic models with individual variation\, and their consequences for coexistence and stability.

Evidence from cross-sectional studies is accumulating for an imbalance between subcortical\, dopamine-related activation and prefrontal control\, which has been proposed to underlie the impulsive\, risky decision making associated with adolescence. Adult substance abusers have alterations in this circuitry\, but it remains unclear whether these alterations reflect pre-existing traits predisposing to substance use or are secondary to substance exposure. The talk will focus on research that probes the neural systems hypothesized to underlie the development of risk for substance use disorders. Findings from the Michigan Longitudinal Study\, a prospective high-risk family study\, will be presented\, and the nationwide Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development study will be discussed.

Professor Lander’s forthcoming book The King’s Harvest uses such an ecological perspective to examine the formation of political organizations in early China. Since early political systems were funded by the grain taxes of common farmers\, it follows that these systems literally ran on solar energy collected by plants\, so we should think of them as organizations dedicated to mobilizing photosynthetic energy. Early states devoted much of that energy to assembling large groups of men to fight with other groups of armed men\, but they also used it to expand farmland and increase the human population in the interests of increasing their tax income. This paper will use these insights to explore the history of the state and empire of Qin (c. 800-207 BCE). Qin established the centralized bureaucratic empire which became the standard model of political organization in China\, bequeathing subsequent empires with administrative skills that helped them thoroughly transform East Asia’s environments.\n \n Brian Lander studies the environmental history and archaeology of early China. He is an assistant professor at Brown University\, where he teaches in history and environmental studies.

Nuclear Nonproliferation and Arms Control: Challenges\, Opportunities\, and Careers DESCRIPTION:The international community faces no shortage of challenges when it comes to preventing the spread of nuclear weapons. The crisis in US-Russia relations\, the slow pace of nuclear disarmament\, the future of North Korea’s nuclear weapons program\, and the emergence of new technologies with military applications–these are just a few of the issues that nuclear policy professionals are working to address today. Each of these problems will require creative ideas and novel methodological approaches to surmount. This talk will highlight different opportunities and career paths for students who may wish to contribute to this process. It will focus in particular on the need for greater diversity\, including gender diversity\, among experts and practitioners in this field. All students\, regardless of their level of knowledge of nonproliferation\, disarmament\, or arms control\, are welcome to attend. Questions are strongly encouraged!\n \n Please note: This session will be held virtually EST through Zoom. This webinar is free and open to students\, but registration is required.

But students only make real progress when they’re organized\, have the skills to be effective\, and have a strategic plan to get things done. That’s where we come in: For almost 50 years\, the Student PIRGs have been working to amplify the power of student activism. We help students make real change\, right now\, that will help all Americans to live meaningful lives and have a greener and healthier future.\n\nFor example\, PIRG students are working to ensure young people are full participants in the political process by helping to turn out the vote in local\, state and national elections through our New Voters Project. In the fall of 2020\, we made nearly 400\,000 peer-to-peer personal reminder contacts in the weeks leading up to Election Day. Our hard work paid off and we saw record turnout among young people.

Curiously\, in the midst of this long-awaited confrontation with Danish colonial rule\, the generation of artists whose careers began under expanded sovereignty shied away from political and cultural imagery. But not all was as it appeared. As I will discuss\, Kalaallit and Tunumiit artists applied their commitment to self-determination toward redefining the conceptual foundations of media like installation and video\, inventing formal and technical language that facilitated the continuity of cultural knowledge\, but which also challenged colonial inequalities that persisted during the Home Rule era. Extending questions raised by these projects\, in this talk I will ask how art should respond when colonialism adopts more opaque forms of power\, masking control over land and resources through the strategic recognition of cultural difference.\n\nDavid W. Norman is a Forsyth Postdoctoral Fellow in the Department of the History of Art at the University of Michigan. His research focuses on modern and contemporary art in Greenland and the circumpolar north. He is particularly interested in the politics of form and media\, as well as the broader histories and geographies of Indigenous conceptual art. He earned his PhD from the University of Copenhagen in 2021.

If you’re thinking of going to graduate or medical school\, ideally you want to be starting in a lab by your sophomore year and in most cases no later than your junior year.

Inhabiting four lives—a railroad baron’s valet who unwittingly ignites an explosion in Chinese labor\, Hollywood’s first Chinese movie star\, a hate-crime victim whose death mobilizes Asian Americans\, and a biracial writer visiting China for an adoption—this work captures and capsizes over a century of our history\, showing that even as family bonds are denied and broken\, a community can survive—as much through love as blood. Building fact into fiction\, spinning fiction around fact\, Davies uses each of these stories—three inspired by real historical characters—to examine the process of becoming not only Chinese American\, but American.\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us.

This unique\, two-year rotational fellowship sits at the intersection of the federal government and the financial services industry. Director’s Financial Analysts are given the opportunity to hone analytical and problem-solving skills while helping to make markets for consumer financial products work for Americans. As a result\, in a short period of time\, analysts will play an integral role in everything the Bureau does\, from rigorous data-driven policy creation and market monitoring to on-site supervision of market participants. Director’s Financial Analysts have used the program to develop their professional skills and grow their public service networks within a collaborative cohort environment. Alumni of the DFA program have moved on to competitive graduate programs (e.g. Stanford Law\, Princeton MPP\, Dartmouth MBA)\, public sector opportunities (e.g. DC city government\, Federal Reserve Banks)\, private industry\, and other divisions within the CFPB. All analysts will complete developmental rotations in offices throughout the CFPB. These rotations are designed to provide exposure to the analysis\, strategy\, research\, education\, policy development\, supervision\, enforcement\, and rulemaking activities throughout the Bureau. We are recruiting for positions that begin after the 2021-2022 academic year.\n\nFOR MORE INFORMATION Please encourage interested students to send an email to CFPB_DFA_Program@cfpb.gov. \n\nLink to Webex: https://cfpbgov.webex.com/mw3300/mywebex/default.do?nomenu=true&siteurl=cfpbgov&service=6&rnd=0.08690505062408105&main_url=https%3A%2F%2Fcfpbgov.webex.com%2Fec3300%2Feventcenter%2Fevent%2FeventAction.do%3FtheAction%3Ddetail%26%26%26EMK%3D4832534b00000004a52cc81781b44cdc049b7f55e63859daed9dfc892a1e306626f3a270b26a2d0b%26siteurl%3Dcfpbgov%26confViewID%3D206808108136161013%26encryptTicket%3DSDJTSwAAAAS9Ri3PYiiC2q3jduLcLWTweFKHspS66auJYfAYo-P7cA2%26\n\n UID:87849-21647155@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/87849 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES: LOCATION: CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211019T160238 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211026T180000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211026T193000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Virtual Corporate Information Session with Serco\, hosted by SWE DESCRIPTION:Looking to be apart of one of WayUp's Top 100 Internship Programs?

Stamps School of Art and Design Professor of Art Susan Crowell presents\, among other works\, a series of wall plaques depicting endangered species. In Professor Crowell's effort to\, \"...question our interactions with the animal world and our impact upon it\,\" she has installed images of elephants and donkeys as protagonists and antagonists in political struggle\, and polar bears as victims of global warming. \n\n\"Animal/ Vegetable/Mineral presents an occasion to speak about my most compelling interests—plants and animals--within the mineral rubrics of clay\,\" she says.\n\nThis event is free and open to the public. Masks are required for all attendees. Vaccination is not required but highly encouraged. All attendees must complete a short questionnaire at https://responsiblue.umich.edu/sign-in before entering East Quadrangle.\n\nSusan Crowell is Professor of Art at the University of Michigan\, where she teaches ceramics and holds a joint appointment in the Residential College and the Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design. A Fulbright Scholar\, she studied architectural ceramics at Centro Internazionale di Ceramica in Rome and directed and taught in the University of Michigan’s Program in Florence. Prof. Crowell conducts research and exhibits her work locally\, nationally and internationally. She has presented projects and exhibitions in Canada (at Banff)\, Japan (at Shigaraki and Miyazaki)\, Italy (Rome\, Venice and Florence)\, Taiwan\, Denmark and China\, as well as in France and the United States\, and she has participated in a variety of international venues and residencies. In 2005 Crowell published I Compianti Sul Christo Morto: Lamentation Groupings in Northern Italy to illuminate the distinguished history of ceramic materials in Quattrocento devotional and didactic sculpture\, and to bring an understanding of their use and potential to contemporary ceramics practitioners. In April of 2016 Prof. Crowell exhibited her work in the conservatories of the Matthaei Botanical Gardens at the University of Michigan\, and in May of 2017\, at the Alden Dow Gardens in Midland\, MI. In 2018 she conducted residencies and research at the Jean Noble Parsons Center for the Study of Art and Science in northern Michigan\, and at A.I.R. Vallauris in Vallauris\, France\, where she exhibited her work in La chapelle de la place Lisnard that October.\n \nFor ten years\, Crowell’s research and artistic practice has focused upon pollen forms and the process of pollination. Deploying her appreciation of the role of technology in revealing the natural world\, she applies the science and aesthetics of botany and apiculture toward the creation of ceramic sculpture\, using cast and hand-built forms. In doing so\, Prof. Crowell presents an expanded view of pollen within the problematics of industrialized honey production\, global commerce in apicultural products\, and genetically modified crops.. More recently\, she has created Thinning the Herd\, an installation of animal forms that addresses endangered species\, and Oppositional\, a commentary on contemporary political behavior in the United States.

A Case in Jewish Diversity in the Second Temple Period DESCRIPTION:Conference Chairs: Gabriele Boccaccini\; Lisa Bowens\; Emma Wasserman\; Loren Stuckenbruck\n\nSecretary: Joshua Scott\n\nPaul of Tarsus was born\, lived and died a Jew. Raised as a Pharisee\, he then joined the early Jesus movement\, a first-century Jewish apocalyptic and messianic group. Paul became one of the most vocal leaders of the new movement and promoted its expansion among the gentiles. The conference\, organized by the Enoch Seminar and the Frankel Institute for Advanced Judaic Studies\, aims to move Pauline research to a further stage\, beyond reclaiming Paul to Second Temple Judaism and proving that “he was not Lutheran.” By taking Paul’s Jewishness as a shared starting point\, the conference explores the figure of Paul within Second Temple Judaism in a line of continuity with the Jewish apocalyptic tradition (and the Enochic tradition in particular)\, not as an apostate of Judaism but as part of the vibrant Jewish diversity of the time.\n\nThe conference will not be aimed at a general audience\, but will instead bring together a group of selected specialists. It will be a workshop with discussion sessions introduced by oral presentations by specialists\, more than a series of papers. The goal is to gather all major specialists working in the field and have plenty of time for discussion. \n\nFor more information\, contact the conference secretary\, Joshua Scott (scottjos@umich.edu).\n\nRegister for this virtual event here: https://tinyurl.com/p6kr29j5\n\nParticipation is limited to members of academia.

It helps us to confront and address some of the most pressing issues of our time. Art has the power to shift the way we see and understand the world around us\, and the worlds within us. Free Your Mind: Art and Incarceration in Michigan invites us to consider these qualities of art\, while also grappling with the carceral system and the many ways it affects the lives of all of us.\n\nCurrently there are approximately 2.2 million people incarcerated in the United States\, and in Michigan\, there are roughly 33\,000 residents currently serving time in the prison system. Working together with a coalition of more than a dozen organizations and Michigan State University units and departments\, Free Your Mind explores the inner worlds of incarcerated individuals and the fundamental issues that shape conversations around incarceration today. The exhibition centers on four key topics of inquiry: Michigan’s length of sentencing and overcrowding in prisons\; the impact of incarceration on women\; youth incarceration\; and the dangers of COVID-19.\n\nThe exhibition features artists\, poets\, and storytellers of great achievement. The majority of these artists are either currently or formerly incarcerated. Their works on view invite us to consider the role art-making plays in prisons as a liberating force\, and offer unique perspectives on the experience of incarceration. The works also invite us to approach the subject of incarceration with an open mind. Free Your Mind aims to cultivate a greater sense of empathy for those directly impacted by incarceration and an understanding that their growth as individuals is linked to the greater health of the society we all live in\, together.\n\nFree Your Mind: Art and Incarceration in Michigan is organized by the Eli and Edythe Broad Art Museum at Michigan State University and curated by Steven L. Bridges\, Senior Curator and Director of Curatorial Affairs\, and Janie Paul\, Senior Curator and Cofounder\, Annual Exhibitions of Art by Michigan Prisoners\, a project of the Prison Creative Arts Project at the University of Michigan. Support for this exhibition is provided by the Eli and Edythe Broad endowed exhibitions fund.

The Carpathians: Discovering the Highlands of Poland and Ukraine DESCRIPTION:In *The Carpathians*\, Patrice M. Dabrowski narrates how three highland ranges of the Carpathian mountain system were discovered for a broader regional public from about 1870 to 1980. This is a story of how the Tatras\, Eastern Carpathians\, and Bieszczady Mountains went from being terra incognita to becoming the popular tourist destinations they are today. It is a story of the encounter of Polish and Ukrainian lowlanders with the wild\, sublime highlands and with the indigenous highlanders—Górale\, Hutsuls\, Boikos\, and Lemkos—and how these peoples were incorporated into a national narrative as the territories were transformed into a native/national landscape.\n \nAlthough the Carpathians\, essentially a continuation of the Alps\, are Central and Eastern Europe's most prominent physical feature\, politically they are peripheral. *The Carpathians* is the first book to deal with the northern slopes more broadly\, showing how these discoveries had a direct impact on the various nation-building\, state-building\, and modernization projects. Dabrowski's history incorporates a unique blend of environmental history\, borderlands studies\, and the history of tourism and leisure.\n\nPatrice M. Dabrowski has taught and worked at Harvard\, Brown\, the University of Massachusetts at Amherst\, and the University of Vienna. She is currently an associate of the Harvard Ukrainian Research Institute\, a member of the Board of Directors of the Polish Institute of Arts and Sciences of America (PIASA)\, and editor of H-Poland. Dabrowski is the author of three books: *Poland: The First Thousand Years* (2014)\, *Commemorations and the Shaping of Modern Poland* (2004)\, and *The Carpathians: Discovering the Highlands of Poland and Ukraine* (2021). In 2014 she was awarded the Knight's Cross of the Order of Merit of the Republic of Poland.\n\nRegistration for this webinar is required at https://myumi.ch/qgozW\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at weisercenter@umich.edu.

The artists previously exhibited their work at PCAP's Annual Exhibition of Art by Michigan Prisoners at the University of Michigan. For some\, this exhibition at the MSU Broad Art Lab is the first opportunity to show their work since regaining their freedom. Art-making has helped these artists during the dark years of their incarceration\, and we hope the exhibition inspires visitors to learn more about how to support formerly incarcerated people reconnecting with their communities.\n\nMartín Vargas\, artist and curator of this exhibition\, invites visitors and supporters to not only connect with the artists through their work\, but also during select Art Lab studio hours\, which will feature several of the artists working in person.\n\nConnections\, New Beginnings: Artists in Transition is organized by the Linkage Project of the Prison Creative Arts Project at the University of Michigan in partnership with the Eli and Edythe Broad Art Museum at Michigan State University. The exhibition is curated by Martín Vargas\, Vanessa Mayesky\, Scott Tompkins\, Nico Slowik\, Kimiko Uyeda\, and Jenna VanFleteren.

Balanced scales blend items written in different directions and are hypothesized as a method for controlling ARS. This study examined the differences in measurement properties between two types of balanced scales. The first balanced scale type included negated items\, which were item reversals formed by inserting a negation\, such as\, “no” and “not.” The second type included polar opposite items\, which used antonyms or opposite terms to reverse the item direction (e.g.\, “unhappy” as the opposite of “satisfied”). Participants were recruited to a Web survey and randomly assigned to (1) unbalanced\, (2) negated balanced or (3) polar opposite balanced scales. Participants came from three groups with different ARS tendencies to contrast the effects of scale wording in mitigating ARS across groups and improving measurement across cultural subgroups. These groups were: Non-Hispanic White respondents\, Hispanic respondents in Mexico and Hispanic respondents in the US. Both types of balanced scales outperformed unbalanced scales in convergent validity\, with higher correlations between scale scores and validation variables for balanced than unbalanced scales. No statistical differences were observed between negated and polar opposite scales in fit indices of factor models\, reliability measures or convergent validity for any group. These findings suggest that negated and polar opposite balanced scales are equivalent for ARS control\, and that they yield adequate measurement properties for all groups included in the study.\n\nResponse Style and Measurement of Satisfaction with Life \n\nSunghee Lee\n\nSatisfaction with Life (SWL)\, a five-item scale\, is designed to assess global judgment about one’s satisfaction with life as a whole rather than specific domains of life. Popularly used by many organizations\, including the World Health Organization (WHO)\, the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and the United Nations Educational\, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO)\, it has been translated into over 30 languages. However\, with its standard version using a 7-point Likert response scale\, it is subject to measurement error due to response style and measurement non-comparability across groups associated with systematically different response styles. More importantly\, whether and how this is addressed in research may have implications for its inclusivity. This study examines the utility of balancing the SWL scale experimentally with multiple racial/ethnic/linguistic groups in the US: Latinx dominant in English\, Latinx dominant in Spanish\, non- Latinx Whites\, non-Latinx Blacks\, non-Latinx Koreans dominant in English and non-Latinx Koreans dominant in Korean. The results suggest the benefit of balancing measurement scales but not for groups that engage in middle response style.\n\nReducing Acquiescent Response Style with Conversational Interviewing\n\nRachel Davis\n\nAcquiescent response style (ARS)\, the tendency for survey respondents to select positive answers such as “Strongly Agree\,” is of particular concern for increasing measurement error in surveys with populations who are more likely to acquiesce\, such as U.S. Latinx respondents. This study enrolled 891 Latinx telephone survey respondents in an experiment to address two questions: (1) Does administering a questionnaire using conversational interviewing (CI) yield less ARS than standardized interviewing (SI)? (2) Do item-specific (IS) response scales reduce ARS when compared to disagree/agree (DA) response formats? No difference was observed in ARS between the DA and IS response scales. However\, CI yielded significantly lower ARS than SI\, likely due to the CI interviewers' efforts to clarify questions and help with response mapping. Findings from this study suggest that using CI to administer survey questions may decrease use of ARS and improve data quality among survey respondents who are more likely to engage in ARS.

In this talk\, I consider the conjunction fallacy as a test case for motivated reasoning\, or the process of evaluating information in a way that coheres with prior attitudes and beliefs. In 3 studies\, participants with prior motivations (e.g.\, fans of a sports team) made judgments about the likelihood of future events. People committed the conjunction fallacy consistent with a desirability bias: scenarios that included a desirable outcome were judged as more likely to happen when compared to less desirable scenarios\, even if logically incoherent.

As we all continue to navigate uncertainty and challenges that are inherent in the act of being human\, we benefit from and are grateful for diverse cultures and traditions across the globe. Collectively they have passed on a wide variety of contemplative practices that encourage reflection\, silence\, and centering into the present moment to help us cope and better respond. Engaging in contemplative practices support the individual\, by cultivating a sense of awareness and well-being\, and benefit society by enhancing one’s capacity to create connection and community\, and to become an agent of positive social change. There are many forms of contemplative practices\, including meditation. Mindfulness meditation is one form aimed to help focus our awareness on the present moment as it unfolds\, moment to moment\, without judgment. Research on mindfulness continues to find a wide range of benefits. In short\, Mindfulness may be viewed as cognitive training that bolsters our ability to handle stress\, poor mood\, and threat. It also increases our capacity to focus our attention on what is most important to us and to be more compassionate to ourselves and to others.\n\nOn Wednesdays from 12:15 - 12:45 pm\, we come together in community to practice this skill in an open and supportive virtual space. Whether you are new to mindfulness meditation or are an experienced practitioner each session is designed to offer guidance and support to assist you. Join this supportive community and experience the gift of present moment awareness.

It can be difficult to access restricted-use datasets in a timely fashion.\n\nThis resource is a kind of \"quick guide\" to help researchers pursue the topics they’re interested in\, including tricky topics like crime or health. ICPSR has hundreds of datasets that are related to topics that normally have restricted data.\n\nThis will benefit researchers who have been frustrated or unsuccessful with the restricted data process but still want to find *some* secondary data that would work with their research interests.\n\nPresented by Brianne Dosch\, ICPSR Representative at the University of Tennessee\, Knoxville.\n\nThis webinar is free and open to the public. A live transcript will be available. This webinar will be recorded\, and the recording and slides will be sent to all registrants. Zoom FAQs are available at http://myumi.ch/kx2oo.

Do We Speak COVID-19? Language and Translation in the Era of Global Crises DESCRIPTION:The 2021 CMENAS Colloquium Series theme is \"Public Health and Pandemics across the MENA: A Multidisciplinary Exhibit.\" \n\nPlease register to attend at https://myumi.ch/r8MB9.\n \nAbout the Presentation:\nCOVID-19 pandemic’s effects have been witnessed everywhere including language. New lexical items and sociolinguistic changes have been created in the wake of this global crisis. Some speakers have used several linguistic devices\, such as neologisms or collocations\, for dealing with COVID-19 through using affixation\, compounding\, blending\, clipping\, acronyms\, and abbreviation. Other speakers adopted euphemistic and dysphemistic techniques to express what they intend to say and to reflect what they appreciate or depreciate. In addition\, presidents and politicians referred to strong language and war metaphors in their daily speeches to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic as well as to shape their fellow countrymen’s thoughts and view.\n \nThe effects of COVID-19 pandemic have been also found in the area of Translation Studies (TS). The pandemic produced an enormous amount of COVID-19 health information which urgently needs to be translated into different languages. Thus\, translators play an influential role in the global response against COVID-19 by rendering and disseminating reliable information in a language the general public can understand. In response to this critical situation\, translators have used modern translation technologies and online resources\, but they have faced different financial and occupational challenges.\n\nAbout the Speaker:\nSameer Naser Olimat is an assistant professor of translation and linguistics in the English Department\, Al-Balqa Applied University\, Salt\, Jordan. He received his PhD in Translation Studies and Computational Linguists from the University of Leeds\, UK\, in 2019. He is interested in the areas of English-Arabic and Arabic-English translation\, Qur'an translation\, crisis translation\, computational linguistics\, and sociolinguistic. He is the founder of Leeds Corpus of Euphemisms in the Qur’an http://corpus.leeds.ac.uk/euphemismolimat/. He participated in national and international peer-reviewed conferences. He published several articles in peer-reviewed and specialized journals.\n\n----\n*If there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact Kristin Waterbury at waterbuk@umich.edu.

This presentation\, led by Drs. Shan Bao and Fred Feng\, describes two unique studies related to cycling safety\, from crash data analysis to a recent naturalistic cycling study in Ann Arbor\, Michigan. The Crash Report Sampling System data was used in this study to identify significant factors that impact cyclists’ crash injury levels. In the naturalistic cycling study\, a fleet of four electric bikes was instrumented with cameras and GPS and was given to study participants as a substitute for their own bicycle. A total of over 5\,000 miles of riding data from 77 subjects were collected over two years. The dataset could be used for studying the interactions between motorists and cyclists on real-world roadways.\n\nMore about this research: https://myumi.ch/jxl0N\n\n---\n\nAbout the speakers:\nDr. Bao is an Associate Professor in the Industrial and Manufacturing Systems Engineering Department\, University of Michigan-Dearborn\, with a joint appointment as Associate Research Scientist in the University of Michigan Transportation Research Institute’s Human Factors Group.

Evidence from French High Schools DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nWe show in a large-scale field experiment that a brief exposure to female role models working in scientific fields affects high school students’ perceptions and choice of undergraduate major. While the classroom interventions generally reduce the prevalence of stereotypical views on jobs in science and gender differences in abilities\, the effects on educational choices are concentrated among high-achieving girls in Grade 12. They are more likely to enroll in selective and male-dominated STEM programs in college. The most effective role model interventions are those that improved students’ perceptions of STEM careers without overemphasizing women’s underrepresentation in science.

The influence of this insight is pervasive in physics\; it underlies all of our theories of the fundamental interactions and gives meaning to conservation laws that elevates them beyond useful empirical rules. Noether’s papers\, lectures\, and personal interactions with students and colleagues drove the development of abstract algebra\, establishing her in the pantheon of twentieth-century mathematicians. This essay traces her path from Erlangen through Göttingen to a brief but happy exile at Bryn Mawr College\, illustrating the importance of \"Noether's Theorem\" for the way we think today.\n UID:87159-21639219@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/87159 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Physics,Science LOCATION:West Hall - 340 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211014T142631 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211027T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211027T170000 SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Department of Computational Medicine & Bioinformatics Weekly Seminar DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nMolecular classification has transformed the diagnosis and treatment of diffuse gliomas\, creating targets for precision therapies. However\, timely and efficient access to molecular diagnostic methods remains difficult\, causing a significant barrier to deliver molecularly-targeted therapies. We aim to develop an innovative point-of-care diagnostic screening method that provides rapid and accurate molecular classification of diffuse gliomas through artificial intelligence and optical imaging in order to improve the comprehensive care of brain tumor patients.\n\nBio:\nDr. Todd Hollon is a neurosurgeon and research scientist who specializes in brain tumors. He is an Assistant Professor of Neurosurgery. He completed his postdoctoral training in the UM Translational Molecular Imaging Laboratory under the supervision of Drs. Daniel Orringer and Honglak Lee. His postdoctoral work focused on the application of deep neural networks to advanced imaging methods to improve the speed and accuracy of intraoperative brain tumor diagnosis. He hopes to be part of the next generation of young scientists that uses computation and machine learning to make scientific breakthroughs.\n\nHost: Josh Welch\, PhD\n\nhttps://umich-health.zoom.us/j/93929606089?pwd=SHh6R1FOQm8xMThRemdxTEFMWWpVdz09\n\nIn-Person: Forum Hall\, Palmer Commons UID:88276-21652019@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/88276 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Basic Science,Biology,Biomedical Engineering,Biosciences,Cardiovascular,Chemistry,Discussion,Electrical Engineering and Computer Science,Engineering,Environment,Free,Human Genetics,Information and Technology,Learning Health Systems,Lecture,Life Science,Mathematics,Medicine,Pediatrics,Physics,Public Health,Research,Science,seminar,Structural Biology,Talk LOCATION:Off Campus Location - Forum Hall, 4th Floor of Palmer Commons CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210913T103822 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211027T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211027T170000 SUMMARY:Presentation:Environmental Career Chat DESCRIPTION:Environmental Career Chats are informal networking opportunities for U-M students to connect with environmental professionals about their career journeys.

The data covers the liquidation values of all major types of assets across industries. For the determinants of asset specificity\, we show that assets’ physical attributes (e.g.\, mobility\, durability\, and customization) play a crucial role\; macroeconomic and industry conditions have the most impact when assets are not custom designed. We then investigate three implications of asset specificity. First\, consistent with theories of investment irreversibility\, high asset specificity is associated with less disinvestment\, stronger investment response to uncertainty\, and greater sensitivity of capital formation across countries to macroeconomic volatility. Second\, the increasing prevalence of intangible assets has not significantly reduced firms’ liquidation values\, but intangibles appear more scalable. Third\, firms have more vertical integration in countries with weaker rule of law when asset specificity is high.\n\nTo join the seminar\, please contact econ.events@umich.edu UID:87931-21647720@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/87931 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Economics,seminar LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210730T090247 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211027T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211027T170000 SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Nursing Graduate Application Information Session DESCRIPTION:Join the Recruiting & Admissions team at the U-M School of Nursing for a virtual Graduate Application Information Session.

Speakers include LRCCS Associate Director Lan Deng\, Professor of Urban Planning\, Alfred Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning\; Shuishan Yu\, Associate Professor of Architecture and Affiliate Associate Professor of Music at Northeastern University\; Wang Hui\, Principal Architect and Co-founder of URBANUS Architecture & Design Inc.\; and Xu Lei\, Chief Architect and Director of the Yihe Architectural Design and Research Center of the China Architecture Design and Research Institute.\n\nPlease register in advance here: https://www.chinainstitute.org/event/architecture-with-chinese-characteristics-how-the-past-is-driving-new-ideas-for-chinas-future-cities/\n \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us.
