SUMMARY:Exhibition:Multiracial Families: Increasing Rapidly
DESCRIPTION:This digital exhibit in the Shapiro Lobby showcases research about and narratives from people across the globe who are part of mixed race families.\n\nIn 1967\, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in the Loving v. Virginia case that marriage across racial lines was legal throughout the country. Intermarriage has increased steadily since then: one in five U.S. newlyweds (19%) were married to a person of a different race or ethnicity in 2019\, a more than sixfold increase from 3% in 1967 (Pew Research Center\, 2022).

SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Prison\, a Prisoner\, and a Prison Guard
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a multimedia exploration of the impact of prisons on countries and communities across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region through the lens of “prison art.” The exhibit delves into the dynamic interplay between incarceration and creative expression to make sense of carceral systems.\n\nBy presenting prison art from various countries in the MENA region\, including Algeria\, Egypt\, Iran\, Iraq\, Lebanon\, Palestine\, Sudan\, Syria\, and Yemen\, this exhibit unfolds as a “journey” into the prison system and demonstrates the ways in which art can be a tool of expression and reconciliation for survivors\, detainees’ families\, and society at large. It promotes drawing parallels between the prison experience in the region and worldwide\, highlights the intentionality of carceral systems\, and expands the conversation to include prison-impacted communities. Viewers are invited to navigate the cross-generational\, human experiences of imprisonment often obscured behind prison walls and within individuals.\n\nCurated by Sumaya Tabbah and Susan Aboeid of The Ḥafathah Collective\, this traveling exhibit was organized by U-M Students Organize for Syria (SOS) in partnership with U-M Library and with support from the U-M Arts Initiative.\n\nPlan to attend the related discussion\, \"Art\, Justice\, and Carcerality: The Role of Creative Expression in the Pursuit of Justice\,\" on February 6.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Being Mixed Race in a Mono-racially Organized World
DESCRIPTION:The exhibit \"Being Mixed Race in a Mono-racially Organized World: Interracial Identity in the U.S. and Around the World — What Research and Mixed Race People Tell Us\" is an exploration into the library's collections about the diversity of mixed race heritage. Through research\, narratives\, demographic data\, and a variety of visual and published materials\, explore multifaceted aspects of mixed race heritage with insights from many perspectives.\n\nThe 2020 U.S. Census illuminated a 276 percent increase in individuals who identify as \"two or more races\" since 2010. In recognition of the growing numbers of mixed race-identifying people at the University of Michigan\, throughout the country\, and across the globe\, we're excited to unveil this new exhibit — a unique exploration of changing demographics and intersectional identities.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:CREES Exhibition. Threading the Needle: Vestiges of Colonialism and Femininity\, an installation by Gluklya
DESCRIPTION:Gluklya’s work is a powerful example of socially engaged art at the intersections of gender\, class\, and cultural identity. By focusing on experiences of female textile workers in Kyrgyzstan\, the artist explores the often-overlooked stories of women affected by Soviet and post-Soviet colonialism. \"Threading the Needle: Vestiges of Colonialism and Femininity\" retells their stories using a diverse range of media — film\, sculpture\, watercolors\, and felt tapestries. Unfolding the implications of economic and societal pressures on women\, Gluklya explores issues of poverty\, isolation\, and exploitation among the garment workers.\n   \n   Personal stories are woven into a broader social context — such as the legacy of the \"Likbez\" (liquidation of illiteracy) campaign among women in Central Asia during Soviet rule and entrenched patriarchal traditions\, like \"Ala Kachuu\" (bride-kidnapping). This dynamic — where colonization and modernization intertwine the individual lives they touch — raises questions about cultural identity and the ethical borders of decolonized research.\n\nThis exhibition was curated by CREES alumna Dianne Beal (BA REES '79). See more of her work here: https://www.diannebeal.com/curatorial.\n   \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at crees@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:WCEE Exhibition. Threads of Tradition: The Art of Ukrainian Vyshyvanka
DESCRIPTION:The act of embroidering and weaving designs onto cloth is deeply rooted in Ukrainian traditions. Embellished clothing (sorochky)\, ritual cloths (rushnyky)\, and household textiles accompany a person from birth until death\, punctuating important life events in between.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Andy Ross Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:The pieces here are from a large series of works made over the last several years. In them\, Ross explores humor and personal meaning through absurd juxtapositions of pairs of wildly varied images. Each single image is stripped of its original context (be it\, for example\, a history book\, an instruction manual\, or a magazine advertisement)\, placed on a white background like some kind of specimen\, and presented afresh with a new “companion image.” These companion images confront\, contrast and converse with each other\, and thereby build new relationships\, narratives\, jokes\, and contexts.\n\nAndy Ross grew up in Macomb County\, and has been making art in various mediums since the 1970s. He received a BFA degree from College for Creative Studies\, and an MFA degree from University of Michigan. He has taught photography\, art\, and web design at colleges in California and Michigan. His photographs and collages have been exhibited in schools\, galleries\, and museums across the United States.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Angkorian Homecoming
DESCRIPTION:Informed by her experience as a refugee\, Phung Huynh’s projects explore the complexities of displacement\, assimilation\, and cultural negotiation among Cambodian and Vietnamese refugees who have resettled in the United States. She creates detailed graphite portraits on pink donut boxes to highlight the stories of Southeast Asians who have survived war trauma and genocide. Huynh’s serigraph prints about Donut Kids foreground intergenerational gaps as well as bridging the refugee parent and American child through the narratives of Cambodian American children who were raised by donut shop owners in California. Huynh’s most recent work of drawings of Cambodian Buddhist statue heads and photographic prints of decapitated statue bodies on fabric addresses the repatriation of looted Cambodian antiquities in the context of challenging the legacy of colonialism\, unethical museum practices\, and the refugee’s desire to return home.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Elizabeth Boyd-Hartmann Dizik Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:This body of work represents a playful exploration of form\, color\, and scale through the lens of cellular shapes. Inspired by the complex patterns of biological life\, the pieces are a celebration of growth\, transformation\, and the joy of experimentation. The use of non-precious materials\, such as wood balls and paint\, allowed for a liberating approach to composition and color\, while the spherical forms and circular panels evoke the look of petri dishes—symbolizing both scientific curiosity and organic development.\nBorn in Detroit\, Elizabeth is a multidisciplinary artist and mother based in the metro Detroit area\, where she works from a studio in her home. With a background in bench jewelry\, her earlier work focused on studio jewelry and was represented by Galerie Noel Guyomarc’h in Montreal.\nElizabeth’s work has been exhibited both locally and internationally. She holds a BA in Jewelry Design\, with First Class Honours\, from Central Saint Martins in London\, a BFA from the University of Michigan\, and an MFA from Cranbrook Academy of Art\, where she specialized in Metalsmithing and Architecture. Her diverse practice spans jewelry\, sculpture\, and installation\, blending materials and techniques to explore themes of production\, growth\, transformation\, and organic form.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Redefining the Crown
DESCRIPTION:In Winter 2025\, the Lane Hall exhibit space will feature a portraiture series titled Redefining the Crown showcasing the powerful stories of six Black breast cancer survivors.\n\nBased on a photo essay by U-M Faculty Versha Pleasant (MD/MPH) and Ava Purkiss (PhD) in Medicine at Michigan\, this exhibition examines the cultural and personal significance of hair within Black communities\, particularly through the lens of breast cancer treatment and recovery. The term \"crown\" is deeply symbolic in Black culture\, signifying beauty\, strength\, and identity. The featured photo essay by photographer Tafari Stevenson-Howard captures the intimate journeys of Ann Chatman\, Tanisha Kennedy\, Felecia McDaniel\, Shantell Elaine McCoy\, Tamara Lynn Myles\, and Veleria Banks.\n\nThrough their narratives and portraits\, the exhibit examines how these women have navigated the profound impact of hair loss caused by chemotherapy\, inviting the audience to witness their stories with radical empathy. It explores the cultural pride and personal identity intricately tied to their hair\, and how these elements are redefined amidst their battles with breast cancer.\n\nThe exhibit will be on view from January 21\, 2025 to August 8\, 2025. This exhibition is presented with support from IRWG\, the Department of Women's and Gender Studies\, and Michigan Medicine. \n\nLocated on the first floor of Lane Hall (204 S. State Street)\, the Exhibit Space is free and open to the public\, M-F\, 9am-4pm.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Bibliophile and the Library: Private-Press Books from the Collection of Bill Heidrich
DESCRIPTION:View beautifully illustrated books that stand as remarkable testaments to the work of twentieth-century small private presses\, which\, in contrast to the trend of mass commercialization\, produced limited editions that celebrated the uniqueness of manual craftsmanship. Features such as exquisite typeface design\, letterpress printing\, handmade paper\, traditional illustration techniques like woodcut and engraving\, and the inclusion of original art by renowned artists highlight the presses' dedication to artistry and detail.\n\nThe display opens with an edition of \"The Works of Geoffrey Chaucer\,\" published in 1896 by William Morris at his Kelmscott Press\, a pivotal press that greatly influenced the development of the private press movement as a means of preserving and revitalizing the fine printing and art traditions of the past. Additionally\, the exhibit includes some examples of artist’s proofs\, offering a glimpse into the intricate creative process behind these exceptional works.\n\nThese books are on loan from the collection of Bill Heidrich\, a long-time supporter of the University of Michigan Library.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Gathering
DESCRIPTION:Welcome. Make Yourself At Home.\n \nA Gathering brings together the newest works of art to enter UMMA’s collection — many on display here for the first time. \n \nAs a free\, public museum\, UMMA staff takes care of art for the benefit of the community and society at large. The works on view in this exhibition\, all brought into the Museum between 2019 and the present\, shows how institutions like UMMA are becoming more permeable to societal challenges\, and more nimble in responding to them in service to all in their communities. In this exhibition you will find works that reflect on how global migrations\, race\, gender\, and ecological change shape the way we engage with the world and inform our visions for the future.\n \nThis collection of artistic engagements with issues give us tools to envision who we want to be as individuals\, as a museum\, and as a society\, connected to one another across space and experience.\n \nSo gather here to take in these latest works of art brought here for you. Gather here to be engulfed in their forms and meanings\, to discuss their takes\, to learn\, to disagree. Gather to relax\, make a friend\, drink a coffee\, finish the daily Wordle. Gather to feel full\, to be moved and inspired by all the possible imaginations of what is yet to come.\n \nCurated by Félix Zamora Gómez Irving Stenn\, Jr. Fellow in Public Humanities & Museum Pedagogy\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by Lizzie and Jonathan Tisch\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Office of the Provost.\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Adaptive Methods for High-Order Aerodynamic Shape Optimization
DESCRIPTION:Aerodynamic shape optimization has the potential to fully automate the aerodynamic design process. The optimizer relies heavily on a robust\, accurate\, and efficient computational fluid dynamics (CFD) solver. High-order CFD methods have the potential to provide high-accurate solutions but rely on adaptation for robustness and efficiency to strategically distribute degrees of freedom to minimize error for a given cost.\n\nThis dissertation closes many gaps preventing the widespread adoption of high-order methods in shape optimization. A novel curved mesh adaptation method is developed that performs metric-based adaptation on curved meshes improving robustness. An algorithm is developed to adapt the mesh during optimization that balances optimization cost and adaptation cost while ensuring accuracy at the optimum. These methods enable cost effective and accurate optimization.\n\nDate/Location:\nMarch 20th\, 2025 | 10:00 am EDT | FXB 1044\nhttps://umich.zoom.us/j/95480752465  | passcode: adapt

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:GLNT: Rational equivalences from hyperelliptic curves
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: The Chow group of zero-cycles of a variety X points can roughly be described as follows: the generators are closed points of X\, and the relations\, also known as rational equivalences\, are divisors of rational functions on curves in X. In general\, it can be very difficult to tell whether a given zero-cycle is trivial in the Chow group\, and the structure of the Chow group as a whole is very mysterious. Deep conjectures due to Bloch and Beilinson give some indication of what the structure should be and which zero-cycles should vanish\, but very little has been proven in this direction.\n\nIn this talk we will focus on certain abelian surfaces A\, and discuss a collection of methods that can take one of the zero-cycles that is predicted to vanish in Chow and verify that it is indeed a rational equivalence. The key idea behind these methods is a relation between hyperelliptic curves in A and rational curves in the Kummer surface of A. This is joint work with Evangelia Gazaki.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:In-person Arabic Placement test_March 20\, 2025 (10:00am-1:00pm)
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to the Arabic Placement TestAbout the testThe test is approximately two hours and a half in length\, and it is composed of three portions:a. The writing portion is completed on paper and it is worth a total of 100 points.b. The reading portion is completed on Canvas site\, and it is worth a total of 48 points.c. Right after finishing with the reading portion\, each student will have a follow-up interview with a proctor. The interviews last approximately 15 minutes and it is worth a total of 20 points.\nImportant: a. Students who receive 60% or above will be placed in Arabic 401 and thus placed out of the language requirement.b. Students who are not able to write in Modern Standard Arabic (MSA) do not need to take the placement test and they will be advised to enroll in Arabic 101.Where can I view my results?c. Placement results are posted within 7 business days after the test.d. You will not be notified of your score automatically. You may view your placements via: Wolverine Access > Student Business > Academic Records > View Placement Exam Results.\nImportant information about the test* Placements are valid for only one year. If you fail to register in the course that you are placed in\, you will be required to retake the test.* Retaking the placement test is only permitted after the placement results expire.* Students who are currently taking an Arabic course will not be allowed to take the placement test. * The test assesses students’ proficiency in Modern Standard Arabic (MSA)\, NOT colloquial Arabic.  * If you speak an Arabic dialect but you do not know how to read or write or have little knowledge\, feel free to register in Arabic 101.* Students who know some Arabic because they came from an Arabic-speaking household or have studied Arabic before\, must take the Arabic proficiency test in order to determine their placement.* Students who have taken Arabic at other institutions and wish to continue their Arabic study at UM must take the placement test to determine their level. Credits for Arabic study undertaken at another institution prior to joining UM or in a summer program while attending UM\, transfer in as generic departmental credits and students must take the placement test to determine credit equivalencies to UM courses.* If you place in or beyond the 401 level\, you will have satisfied the LSA language requirement. * Students are encouraged to take a placement test as early as possible in their studies in order to determine the level they should enroll in\, or if they test out of the language requirement. This is extremely important to avoid delays in graduation and complications with placement.* Arabic 101\, 201\, 401\, 501 are offered ONLY in the Fall semester\, and Arabic 102\, 202\, 402\, 504\, 511 are ONLY offered in the Winter semester.* Arabic 103 (the equivalent of Arabic 101 & 102\, combined) may be offered in the Spring/Summer sessions.* Arabic 203 (the equivalent of Arabic 201 & 202\, combined) is offered in the Spring/Summer sessions.If you have questions regarding the placement test\, please contact the program director at\, mesarabicprogram@umich.edu.

SUMMARY:Other:Leaves Under the Lens
DESCRIPTION:The leaf surface is a dynamic landscape where tiny\, specialized structures help plants interact with the world around them. Let’s bring this world into view! Join us for an exhibit that highlights the complex and often beautiful anatomy of leaves from the Matthaei collection. Plants throughout the conservatory will be paired with microscope photographs and micro-CT scans that illustrate the otherwise invisible structures that protect leaves from chewing insects\, absorb (or repel!) water\, and even recruit “bodyguards”. You won’t look at leaves the same way again! \n\nThis project is a collaboration between MBGNA and the Weber and Vasconcelos labs in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology\, led by PhD student Rosemary Glos.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism
DESCRIPTION:Organized as a response to the Museum’s recent acquisition of Titus Kaphar’s Flay (James Madison)\, this upcoming reinstallation of one of our most prominent gallery spaces forces us to grapple with our collection of European and American art\, 1650-1850.\n \nIn recent times\, growing public awareness of the continued reverberations of the legacy of slavery and colonization has challenged museums to examine the uncomfortable histories contained in our collections\, and challenged the public to probe the choices we make about those stories. Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n

SUMMARY:Presentation:Dissertation Defense: Thurston Theory for a Family of Chebyshev Polynomials and Cosine Maps
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nA cornerstone of complex dynamics is William Thurston's topological characterization of rational functions\, which provides a way to understand when topological objects are realized as geometric objects. These topological objects are finite degree branched maps of the topological sphere S^2 and the geometric objects are holomorphic maps of the Riemann sphere \hat{\mathbb{C}}\, both of which are postcritically finite (i.e.\, the set of points in the orbit of the critical points is finite). We apply this framework to study a one-parameter family of modified Chebyshev polynomials from a dynamical and nondynamical perspective. Our interest in this family comes from the property that it approximates a one-parameter cosine family. This ties into a natural question that has arisen: can Thurston's characterization be extended to entire transcendental maps? In this setting\, the analog of postcritically finite maps are postsingularly finite maps on the complex plane \mathbb{C}\, but for our cosine family\, these notions coincide. Our work is based on the major breakthrough of Hubbard\, Schleicher\, and Shishikura in their characterization of exponential maps. We adapt their techniques for our cosine family to prove a partial characterization of postsingularly finite topological cosine maps.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Great Lakes Seminar Series: David Lodge
DESCRIPTION:About the presentation: Researchers often assume that the value of research in solving problems is self-evident. Yet most research does not lead to solutions\, even when the proposals that launched the research promised solutions. University and government researchers could address this longtime peril by including clear theories of change in project development\, and co-creating and co-executing projects across disciplines and sectors. This would require alignment of funding and infrastructure to support such mission-driven research. In a rapidly changing government landscape\, I will examine past examples of the role of research and technology development in driving change in policies\, practices\, and products. While I do not promise to resolve all the promises and perils\, I will suggest some possible ways forward for solutions-oriented sustainability research in government and universities.\n\nAbout the speaker: Dr. David M. Lodge is the Francis J. DiSalvo director of Cornell University’s Cornell Atkinson Center for Sustainability. He is an internationally recognized environmental scientist\, with expertise in environmental risk assessment\, freshwater and marine coastal ecology\, ecosystem services\, bioeconomics\, and invasive species. His research has improved ecological forecasting to better inform environmental risk assessment\, natural resource management\, and policy development. Lodge is a leader in the development and application of environmental DNA (eDNA)\, a transformative technological tool for discovering unrecognized biodiversity\, censusing aquatic biodiversity\, and improving the management of imperiled\, invasive\, or harvested species. He is past president of the Ecological Society of America\, and former senior science advisor in the US Department of State’s Office of Polar Affairs. On numerous occasions he has testified before the U.S. Congress\, and served as an expert witness in federal court. He is faculty member in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at Cornell University.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Michelle Hinojosa: Logcabins
DESCRIPTION:Stamps Gallery commissioned Michelle Hinojosa (MFA\, 2023) to reimagine the pillars on Division Street that flank the Gallery. Hinojosa has created log cabin quilts to adorn the columns in front of Stamps Gallery. The log cabin quilts traditionally represent the warm hearth at the center of a home. This installation reflects on the interplay between home\, placemaking\, labor\, and intergenerational memories of migration. Rather than quilting cotton designed to softly embrace the body\, these quilts are sewn from outdoor grade\, UV-resistant polyester. The quilt is an ode to Hinojosa’s grandmother who illegally crossed the US/Mexico border holding her babies and her quilts. As she and her family drove across the United States to work in the fields of the Salinas Valley\, the quilts offered a safe space for her and her family. Hinojosa celebrates their resilience to her grandmother and elders while also drawing attention to precarity and violence experienced by refugees and migrants crossing the US-Mexico border in our present today.\nArtist’s bio:\nMichelle Inez Hinojosa is an artist\, educator\, and researcher whose work is informed by Indigenous and Latine/x/a/o studies. Born and raised in Texas\, she earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in both drawing and painting and art education with a minor in art history at the University of North Texas. She holds a Master of Fine Arts from the University of Michigan. She works with quilting\, bead weaving\, embroidery\, jewelry\, transparent film installations\, painting\, ceramics\, and sculpture to honor and explore the history of migration in her family and humanize the current discourse around migration still occurring at the southern border. Alongside her artwork she maintains a writing practice to re-story\, re-make\, and re-claim the often subordinated narratives of Latinx\, Chicanx\, Mexican\, and Texican peoples. \n\nRecently\, Hinojosa was named an inaugural Creative Careers Artist in Residence at the University of Michigan\, she has also attended residencies at Mildred's Lane (Pennsylvania)\, Anderson Ranch Art Center (Aspen\, CO) and The Cedars Union (Dallas\, TX).

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Seminar Series: What does Urban Psychology tell us about implicit biases?
DESCRIPTION:Andrew Stier holds a PhD in Integrative Neuroscience from the University of Chicago\, a Masters in Psychology and a BA in Mathematics and Physics from the University of Chicago and is currently at the Santa Fe Institute. Andrew’s research in Urban Psychology takes advantage of cities’ regularities to study human behavior and of the inner workings of large-scale complex systems. He uses these models as a starting point to develop a theoretical framework that comprehensively explains emergent human behavior across scales\, from individual brain function to entire urban areas.\n\nAbstract\nAre people less racist in Santa Fe or Ann Arbor? Are people more or less depressed in larger cities? Are attention spans shorter in busy urban areas? Urban Psychology is the study of how the built environment of cities influences human behavior and causes psychological adaptations at the individual level. In this talk\, I will discuss the results of my research extending Urban Scaling Theory models to better understand how cities shape human psychology. I will (1) briefly review how cities systematically influence mental health and cognition\, and (2) discuss what I have learned applying urban psychology models to understand implicit biases. I will present mathematical models\, backed up by real-world and experimental (i.e.\, laboratory) data\, which demonstrate that people are less depressed\, more attentive\, and less racist (i.e.\, have lower implicit racial biases) in larger cities. In addition\, I will demonstrate that implicit biases change more slowly in larger cities than smaller cities\, despite the fact that biases are lower in larger cities. Finally\, I will discuss the implications of this observation for large-scale cultural change and the effectiveness of individual-level bias interventions.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Spatial Sorting of Workers and Firms
DESCRIPTION:Why do productive workers and firms locate together in dense cities? I develop a new theory of two-sided sorting in which both heterogeneous workers and firms sort across space. The location choices of workers and firms affect each other and endogenously generate spatial disparities in the presence of three essential forces: complementarity between worker and firm productivity\, random matching within frictional local labor markets\, and congestion costs. I demonstrate that the decentralized equilibrium exhibits excessive concentration of workers and firms\, and dispersing them away from dense locations can mitigate congestion without reducing output. I then provide direct empirical evidence of the two-sided sorting mechanism using German administrative microdata. An exogenous increase in the quality of the workforce in a location results in more productive firms choosing that location. Finally\, to quantify the implications of the model\, I calibrate it to U.S. regional data and show that policies that relocate workers and firms toward less dense areas can increase welfare.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:We Can’t Solve a Puzzle without Knowing the Picture: Characterizing Doctoral Engineering Attrition\, Persistence\, and Thriving to Reconceptualize Graduate Educational Systems
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Though graduate students in engineering are understudied compared with undergraduate education\, the intersection of sociological and psychological factors predicting attrition (i.e.\, leaving a program of study) for graduate students is particularly unexplored. The Council of Graduate Schools report that in doctoral engineering programs\, ten-year degree completion rates are only 56% and 65% for women and men\, respectively. Persistence rates for students from historically marginalized racial groups are lower than 50%.  The lack of “socialization” is generally noted as a main reason for doctoral attrition\; however\, few researchers seek to understand and characterize the socialization process in graduate engineering students and how the mechanisms of attrition or persistence work within a single disciplinary setting. Propagated by a lack of research\, administrators\, faculty\, and graduate advisors often work to “solve” retention given their anecdotal experiences with graduate students\, rather than understanding the entire picture surrounding graduate student attrition\, persistence\, and career trajectories.\n \nThis seminar will present results from several of my ongoing studies\, including an NSF RFE grant exploring how various “invisible” competencies such as academic writing can impact persistence and career trajectories and the most current findings from my NSF CAREER grant\, characterizing master’s-level departure from the engineering PhD. Though doctoral attrition and consideration of leaving is common (our work shows that approximately 70% of engineering PhD students consider or strongly consider leaving)\, students often feel isolated\, thinking they are alone and hesitant to discuss their issues with either their peers or their advisors.  My team’s research across several funded projects weaves together to support a more nuanced and accurate understanding of the processes involved in attrition—including how graduate students come to consider whether they should depart from their PhD\; how various sociological or structural factors interact with psychological issues in graduate students\; and how thriving is different than surviving.  Ultimately\, my research platform breaks new ground in understanding issues related to doctoral and graduate student success\, while also developing new and innovative methods to collect and visualize data about attrition processes.\n\nBiography: Catherine Berdanier is an Associate Professor of Mechanical Engineering at the Pennsylvania State University. She earned her B.S. in Chemistry from The University of South Dakota\, her M.S. in Aeronautical and Astronautical Engineering and Ph.D. in Engineering Education from Purdue University.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:More than Gray: Reimagining Early America in Full Color
DESCRIPTION:The American past was lived in full color\, but this vibrant history can be easily missed in surviving evidence. You can’t deny that there’s something about a black-and-white photograph that feels… stuffy. With portraits showing people with their shirts buttoned right to the neck and everything in shades of gray and brown\, our imaginations can incline to thinking of the past as a bit staid\, if not downright dull. But look a little closer\, and you’ll see signs that the fashion choices available to those who came before us were more colorful than you might first think. From the fabrics they wore\, to the games they played\, or the books they read\, their world was alive with bright hues. This exhibit invites you to reimagine history with a fuller color palette and picture the vibrancy and joy that just might be hidden behind the unsmiling photographs.\n\nExhibition opening weekdays from 12-4.

DESCRIPTION:March 20 from 2:30 p.m. - 3:30 p.m.\nRackham East Conference Room and online\n\nReception and booking signing to follow from 3:30-5:30 p.m. in Rackham West Conference Room. \n\nA free copy of the speaker’s new book\, After Disruption: A Future for Cultural Memory (University of Michigan Press)\, will be available for in-person attendees while supplies last.\n\nThis event is sponsored by the University of Michigan School of Information (UMSI) and the University of Michigan Library.\n\nAbstract:\nLibrary and archives professionals often take collection centered mindsets to our work. Drawing on experience from two decades of work in digital history and cultural memory\, Owens will discuss approaches to work with collections that cultivate and support personal connections and belonging. This will include discussion of key points from his recently published book After Disruption: A Future for Cultural Memory\, in dialogue with practical examples from his work at the Library of Congress and the American Institute of Physics. He will show how ongoing work in libraries and archives can function as a context for action research to advance both theory and practice for how work with special collections can advance efforts in communities for equity\, justice\, and sustainability.\n\nSpeaker bio:\nTrevor Owens is chief research officer at the American Institute of Physics. Prior to joining AIP\, Trevor Owens was the director of Digital Services at the Library of Congress. Over the past decade\, Owens has held progressively senior roles\, advancing vision and strategies for the future of research organizations. While serving at the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS)\, he was responsible for convening representatives from libraries\, associations\, funders and technology innovators to establish the National Digital Platform framework. Through his work at the Library of Congress\, IMLS and the Roy Rosenzweig Center for History and New Media\, Owens gained extensive experience and background in history of science research\, library and archives leadership and management\, and applied social science research. He has a particular expertise and interest in the power of digital assets and content\, which aligns with AIP’s strategic vision. And in 2023\, he served as a member of AIP’s Blue-Ribbon Panel engaged to recommend a strategic vision for the future of AIP’s history\, library and archives programs.\n\nIn 2022\, Owens served as a Fulbright Specialist with the National Library of Kosovo\, leading the development of their first digital collections strategy. In 2021\, the American Library Association named Owens the recipient of the Frederick G. Kilgour Award for Research in Library and Information Technology\, an award that recognizes a body of research having a positive and substantive impact on the publication\, storage\, retrieval and dissemination of information.\n\nOwens is the author of three books\, the most recent of which\, The Theory and Craft of Digital Preservation\, was published by Johns Hopkins University Press in 2018 and has won outstanding publication awards from both the American Library Association and the Society of American Archivists. His next book\, After Disruption: A Future for Cultural Memory\, will be published by University of Michigan Press in the spring of 2024.

DESCRIPTION:Dinner will be provided!\n\nAbout Dr. Pual Pridham:\n\nDr. Paul Pridham is a Lecturer and Research Area Specialist Senior in the Center for Ergonomics and Industrial and Operations Engineering Department at the University of Michigan. Paul completed a Ph.D. from Columbia University\, focused on rehabilitation robotics and how design impacts the performance of these systems. Paul went on to do postdocs at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology\, studying human exoskeleton fluency\; and at Northern Arizona University\, studying ankle exoskeletons with applications to clinical populations. Paul's work explores the impact of design on the performance of wearable systems\, particularly exoskeletons. This talk will examine how wearable systems can be used to better understand ourselves\, and in return how that understanding can allow us to better design wearable systems. Paul will also discuss future directions to take this work and encourage students to explore these topics.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:899 Seminar Series: Holden. Lee\, Johns Hopkins University
DESCRIPTION:Presenter Bio\nHolden Lee is an assistant professor of applied mathematics and statistics at Johns Hopkins University\, working on theoretical machine learning and applied probability. His research focuses on mathematical foundations for sampling algorithms and generative modeling\, with applications to language models. He was a co-organizer for the NeurIPS 2024 workshop on Creativity & Generative AI. He obtained his Ph.D. in mathematics from Princeton.\n\nAbstract\nMultimodal distributions such as mixture models pose significant challenges for both learning and sampling algorithms\, but score-based and diffusion models have enjoyed widespread empirical success on these problems. How can we understand their success from a theoretical perspective?\nFor learning\, we consider Gaussian mixtures and show diffusion models can learn a mixture of k isotropic Gaussians in R^n with quasi-polynomial time and sample complexity (exp(poly log((n+k)/epsilon)))\, under a minimum weight assumption. This gives a completely different\, analytic proof of a result previously known only using a specialized algebraic approach\, and moreover\, it extends to give the first efficient algorithm for learning a non-parametric family of Gaussian convolutions of distribution supported on sets with a small covering number.\n\nFor sampling\, we explain the surprising observation that despite the slow mixing of Langevin dynamics\, it is possible to sample from multimodal distributions by learning only the vanilla score\, as long as we use data-based initialization. We consider the more general problem of sampling using a Markov chain without global mixing given a small number of samples from the stationary measure\, showing efficient sampling with a number of data samples almost linear in the number of modes\; this also covers the case of Glauber dynamics with pseudolikelihood estimation.\nBased on joint work with Khashayar Gatmiry and Jonathan Kelner (MIT)\, Frederic Koehler (UChicago)\, Thuy-Duong Vuong (UC Berkeley) on the papers https://arxiv.org/abs/2404.18869 and https://arxiv.org/abs/2411.09117.\n\nThis event is a part of our 899 seminar series.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Biomedical Engineering Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nMachine learning algorithms are becoming increasingly powerful to support scientific research and development. A large emphasis in the pharmaceutical community has been on applying these tools in drug discovery\, where algorithms promise to accelerate the earliest stages of drug development. However\, a key challenge in applying machine learning to drug discovery is the scarcity of large\, high-quality datasets for many important applications. To combat this issue\, active learning workflows can be deployed where the machine learning algorithm is put in charge of additional data acquisition. These approaches can dramatically improve the performance of machine learning algorithms by directly querying the most useful data for model development instead of relying on human bias for data generation. In particular\, by pairing machine learning algorithms in yoked learning campaigns\, with one model as a selection algorithm and another as the predictive model\, the performance of these workflows can be improved especially when using currently popular deep neural networks. Even if no new data is selected\, smart active learning algorithms can also\nserve as a data selection approach for subsampling existing data to improve model performance especially on low quality datasets. Instead of selecting data\, data processing approaches can further improve model performance to better support drug development. For example\, novel pairwise deep learning approaches analyze the relationships between molecules to predict property differences instead of predicting property values of individual molecules. By quadratically increasing dataset sizes\, such approaches are particularly beneficial for ADMET and drug development tasks where data availability might be severely limited when relying on in vivo readouts. Such approaches can also enable the integration of bounded measurement values\, thereby enabling algorithms to incorporate data on incompletely characterized compounds to further improve model performance. While active learning and novel data\nprocessing techniques can significantly improve model performance in drug discovery\, similar advancements are needed for drug delivery applications. The development of machine learning approaches to de-risk and improve drug delivery holds immense promise to create superior therapeutics. However\, available datasets for drug delivery applications are often even more limited\, and this is further exacerbated by the large complexity of delivery challenges that often involve complex materials and interactions. To circumvent some of these challenges\, data from drug discovery can be harnessed to predict drug-excipient interactions to identify functional formulations that improve drug absorption and metabolism. Alternatively\, data can be specifically generated via high-throughput laboratory automation or using text mining to curate data from the literature. We have prototyped such advanced workflows in the context of nanoparticle development\, for example by creating predictive workflows that model the in vivo tumor reduction of inorganic nanoparticles and by using machine learning to guide the synthesis of novel drug-excipient nanoparticles with applications in anti-fungal and anti-cancer drug delivery. Despite current challenges and surely overinflated expectations\, such case studies serve as testimony that the strategic integration of machine learning into drug development pipelines holds immense promise to accelerate\, de-risk\, and optimize the creation of life-saving therapeutics.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:MICDE-EECS Seminar - Mikhail Belkin\, Professor\, University of California San Diego
DESCRIPTION:Bio: Mikhail Belkin is a Professor at Halicioglu Data Science Institute and Computer Science and Engineering Department at UCSD and an Amazon Scholar. Prior to that he was a Professor at the Department of Computer Science and Engineering and the Department of Statistics at the Ohio State University. He received his Ph.D. from the Department of Mathematics at the University of Chicago (advised by Partha Niyogi). His research interests are broadly in theory and applications of machine learning\, deep learning and data analysis. Some of his well-known work includes widely used Laplacian Eigenmaps\, Graph Regularization and Manifold Regularization algorithms\, which brought ideas from classical differential geometry and spectral graph theory to data science. His more recent work has been concerned with understanding remarkable mathematical and statistical phenomena observed in deep learning. The empirical evidence necessitated revisiting some of the classical concepts in statistics and optimization\, including the basic notion of over-fitting. One of his key findings has been the \"double descent\" risk curve that extends the textbook U-shaped bias-variance trade-off curve beyond the point of interpolation. His recent work focusses on understanding feature learning and over-parameterization in deep learning. Mikhail Belkin is an ACM Fellow and a recipient of a NSF Career Award and a number of best paper and other awards. He had served on the editorial boards of IEEE Proceedings on Pattern Analysis Machine Intelligence and the Journal of the Machine Learning Research. He is the editor-in-chief of SIAM Journal on Mathematics of Data Science (SIMODS).\n\nAbstract: In recent years\, transformers have become a dominant machine learning methodology.\nA key element of transformer architectures is a standard neural network (MLP). I argue that MLPs alone already exhibit many remarkable behaviors observed in modern LLMs\, including emergent phenomena. Furthermore\, despite large amounts of work\, we are still far from understanding how 2-layer MLPs learn relatively simple problems\, such as “grokking” modular arithmetic. I will discuss recent progress and argue that feature-learning kernel machines (Recursive Feature Machines) isolate some key computational aspects of modern neural architectures and are preferable to MLPs as a model for analysis of emergent phenomena.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Department of Astronomy 2024-2025 Colloquium Series Presents:
DESCRIPTION:\"How Long do Quasars Shine?\"\n\nLuminous quasars are believed to be the progenitors of the supermassive black holes observed ubiquitously at the centers of all massive galaxies\, but we are still in the dark about how these black holes formed. Our ignorance largely results from the fact that the expected timescale for supermassive black hole growth of 50 million years is far longer than the mere fifty years that humans have been observing quasars. A holy grail would thus be a direct measurement of quasar lifetimes\, shedding light on the physical mechanisms responsible for fueling black hole growth\, and how the back-reaction of this growth might influence how galaxies form.  I will discuss two very different experiments that allow us to construct cosmic clocks that can accurately time the duration of luminous quasar activity on timescales of kiloyears to gigayears. One exploits the clustering pattern of quasars on the sky\, which has recently been measured by JWST. The other uses observations of diffuse intergalactic gas in quasar environs. I will also touch upon how the latter can be used to constrain the reionization history of the Universe.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EEB Thursday Seminar Series - New Views on Fern Phylogenetics: Updates from the GoFlag Targeted Enrichment Probe Set
DESCRIPTION:Ferns are the second largest group of vascular land plants\, with ca. 10\,000\, species\, and they are critical components of Earth’s biodiversity – ferns can be found in nearly every type of ecosystem and habitat\, from desert to rainforest. Ferns also occupy a pivotal evolutionary position as sister to the megadiverse seed plants\, and they are thus the critical outgroup needed to understand the evolution of key seed plant features. This talk presents the results of a phylogenomic approach to reconstructing fern evolution\, using the most highly resolved nuclear dataset to date (targeting 408 loci)\, and with highly targeted taxonomic sampling (including nearly all fern families and genera). This dataset allows us to explore a range of outstanding questions in fern phylogenetics\, including resolving recalcitrant nodes\, and comparing results between our nuclear based trees and other recent large-scale fern phylogenies based on chloroplast loci.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EIHS Lecture: Broken Bonds: Fugitive Bannermen\, Civic virtue\, and Ethnic Identity in Late Imperial China
DESCRIPTION:In 1670\, the Kangxi Emperor promulgated the Sacred Edict\, a hortatory edict consisting of sixteen apothegms that enjoined his Chinese subjects to observe a variety of Confucian virtues. The Edict was the subject of a vast commentarial literature and was revered as a sacred text right through the end of the Qing Dynasty in 1912. This talk takes a closer look at the long-neglected thirteenth apothegm of the Edict\, which admonished against “shielding fugitive bannermen\,” and inquires what it can tell us about political loyalty\, displaced imperial subjects\, and inter-ethnic relations in late imperial China.\n\nPär Cassel is an associate professor of modern Chinese history at the University of Michigan\, where he has taught since 2006. He is strongly committed to multi-lingual and multi-archival research and is especially interested in historical problems where international relations\, jurisprudence\, institutional history\, and linguistics intersect. He has published on East Asian treaty ports\, extraterritoriality and international law in China and Japan\, Sino-Japanese relations\, Manjuristics\, and the history of Sinology. His most recent academic publication explores Confucian responses to Western imperialism and Japan’s policy of “National Seclusion” in the 1830s.\n\nThis event presented by the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies. It is made possible in part by a generous contribution from Kenneth and Frances Aftel Eisenberg.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Electrocatalytic Synthesis with Interfacial Control
DESCRIPTION:Synthesis driven by renewable electricity offers a sustainable\, scalable\, decentralized\, and energy-efficient route to furnish value-added products – from fuels to complex molecules. Maximizing reaction efficiency and durability requires immobilized catalytic active sites on electrodes\, resulting in dispersed and non-uniform sites. This heterogeneity challenges iterative optimization of reactivity through traditional catalyst modifications\, which rely on uniform\, singular active sites. This lecture will focus on our research developing synthetic tools and concepts to predictively control interfacial structures at heterogeneous and reusable electrodes at the molecular level. Surface-sensitive techniques and mechanisms will be highlighted throughout the talk. Applications of our interfacial designs in enabling selective chemical syntheses and durable energy conversion systems will be discussed.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Habit Formation in Labor Supply
DESCRIPTION:Among low income workers\, labor supply is often irregular: frequent shocks disrupt work spells\, absenteeism is high\, and many workers prefer flexible casual work to formal jobs. We examine the possibility that labor supply is habit forming—so that past labor supply levels affect preferences for future supply. We undertake a field experiment with casual urban laborers in Chennai\, India. We randomly provide some workers with small financial incentives for attendance over 7 weeks\, leading to a 23% increase in labor supply. We test for habit formation by examining subsequent impacts after the incentives are removed. First\, we see a persistent 16% increase in labor supply over the next 2 months\, resulting in a 11% increase in employment. Second\, treated workers exhibit a higher willingness to accept work contracts that are of longer duration and less flexible. They also self-report an increase in automaticity—suggesting a change in preferences. Third\, shocks that temporarily pull workers out of the labor market lead subsequent treatment effects to collapse to zero\; in the absence of these shocks\, we cannot reject that there is no decay in effects over time. Fourth\, in incentivized measures\, employers accurately predict treatment effects\, and prefer hiring workers who have been treated with a stronger habit stock in the past—findings that have relevance for understanding duration dependence and the “unemployment scar”. Finally\, in supplementary data from other settings\, we replicate short-run persistent effects of transitory labor supply shocks—indicating the broader generalizability of hysteresis in labor supply. Together\, our results suggest that the intermittent nature of employment and frequent shocks experienced in low-income settings may inhibit workers from becoming habituated to regular work—with implications for the transition to formal regular work in poor countries.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The politics of disaster prevention | The 2025 Miller Converse Lecture
DESCRIPTION:Despite the importance of effective disaster policy\, governments typically fail to produce it. The main explanation offered by political scientists is that voters strongly support post-disaster relief but not policies that seek to prevent or prepare for disaster. This study challenges that view. We develop novel measures of preferences for disaster prevention and post-disaster relief. We find strong support for prevention policies and candidates who pursue them\, even among the subgroups that are the most opposed. Support for prevention has the hallmarks of “real” attitudes: consistency across wordings and response formats\, including open ended probes\; steadfastness in the face of arguments\; and willingness to make trade-offs against disaster relief\, increased taxes\, and reduced spending on other programs. Neither cognitive biases for the here and now nor partisan polarization prevent robust majority support for disaster prevention. We validate these survey findings with election results\, which suggest voters act on these preferences.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Roma people of Ukraine by Janush Panchenko
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a unique talk on the Roma people of Ukraine by Janush Panchenko on Thursday\, March 20\, at 5 PM (EST)! \nThis is a hybrid event\nIn-Person Location: MLB 3308 \nVia Zoom: Register at alexaver@umich.edu\n\nThe Roma of Ukraine are a diverse and resilient community\, deeply rooted in the region’s history and cultural memory. With around 15 subethnic groups\, each with its own language\, traditions\, and religious affiliations—both Christian and Muslim—the true size of Ukraine’s Roma population remains uncertain\, with estimates ranging from 47\,000 to 400\,000.\n\nDespite gradual changes in recent decades\, Roma communities have continued to face marginalization. The full-scale Russian invasion has only intensified their struggles—about 80% of Roma in the occupied territories were forced to flee\, and many have been directly impacted by Russian crimes. At the same time\, some Roma have defied cultural norms and joined the Ukrainian army\, reshaping perceptions of their role in society.\n\nThis talk will explore the rich history and cultural diversity of Ukrainian Roma while shedding light on the immense challenges they face today. Through historical insight and contemporary analysis\, we will examine how war is transforming Roma identity and community life in Ukraine.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Annual Copernicus Lecture. The Post-Populist Predicament: On Redemocratization and Rule-of-Law Restoration in Poland since 2023
DESCRIPTION:On October 15\, 2023\, Polish voters elected\, by a wide margin\, a coalition of democratic parties and thus ended an 8-year episode of authoritarian-populist rule. But in contrast to other known cases of populist incumbents’ electoral defeat (Bolsonaro in Brazil\, Janša in Slovenia\, or Trump in the U.S. in 2020)\, the incumbents left a deeply dismantled institutional field\, or rather a minefield of various legal and institutional ambushes meant to render re-democratization extremely difficult\, if not impossible. In such circumstances\, a post-populist government faces a fundamental tension between the aim of depolarization and that of democratic consolidation. The rule-of-law conundrum best illustrates the tension: to respect the rule of law as traditionally\, conventionally understood—as dictating observance of all legal rules in force\, whatever their intent or content—leads to paralysis in a new government’s re-democratization efforts.\n\n   Sadurski will offer an account of the post-populist predicament in Poland (not avoiding the question of whether it is truly post-populist) and sketch some proposed solutions to the conundrum. He will show how the post-populist transition is different\, and in many ways more difficult\, than the post-communist transition in the early 1990s\, and how it necessitates some innovative constitutional remedies. He will then explore lessons that can be drawn from the Polish case for future redemocratization of other populist-authoritarian regimes\, such as those in Turkey\, India\, or Hungary today.\n   \nWojciech Sadurski is Challis Professor of Jurisprudence at the University of Sydney and Professor at the University of Warsaw’s Center for Europe\, as well as a lawyer\, political philosopher\, and commentator on public affairs. He previously held the chair in philosophy of law at the European University Institute in Florence and has taught regularly at Yale\, NYU\, and Princeton\, as well as at universities in Europe and Asia. He is a member of the Global Rule of Law Commission. Sadurski’s most recent books include *Poland’s Constitutional Breakdown* (2019)\, *A Pandemic of Populists* (2022)\, and *Constitutional Public Reason* (2023). He is a co-recipient of the 2023 Karol Pilarczyk Foundation Award for the “promotion of democracy and the rule of law” by the Polish Academy of Arts and Sciences in America (PIASA).\n   \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Penny Stamps Speaker Series - Phung Huynh
DESCRIPTION:Phung Huynh is a Los Angeles-based artist and educator with a practice in drawing\, painting\, public art\, and community engagement. Her work explores cultural perception and representation\, such as her drawings and prints on pink donut boxes\, which explore the complexities of assimilation and cultural negotiation among Cambodian and Vietnamese refugees who have resettled in the United States. Huynh also challenges beauty standards by constructing images of the Asian female body vis-à-vis plastic surgery to unpack how contemporary cosmetic surgery can whitewash cultural and racial identity. \nIn tandem with her Penny Stamps Series appearance\, The Institute for the Humanities is hosting Huynh’s installation\, Angkorian Homecoming\, on display from March 20 - May 2\, 2025 at the Institute for the Humanities Gallery. The new series brings together an installation of ornately framed graphite drawings and photographic banners that seek to ritually unite fragments of sacred Khmer Buddha statue heads that were looted from Cambodia. The artist examines Cambodian sculptures that memorialize the Golden Age of Khmer culture from the 9th to the 15th centuries\, particularly the Buddha heads that are currently housed in American art museums and the remnants of the statues' bodies remaining in the temples of Cambodia. Huynh initiates critical dialogues in the pressing matters of repatriation and provenance within the collections of American institutions.\nPhung Huynh has had solo exhibitions at Gagosian Gallery in Beverly Hills and the Sweeney Art Gallery at the University of California\, Riverside. Her paintings and drawings have been exhibited nationally and internationally\, including spaces such as the U.S. Embassy in Phnom Penh\, Cambodia. She has also completed public art commissions for the Metro Orange Line\, Metro Silver Line\, the Los Angeles Zoo\, and the Los Angeles General Medical Center through the Los Angeles County Department of Arts and Culture. \nPhung Huynh has served as Chair of the Public Art Commission for the city of South Pasadena and Chair of the Prison Arts Collective Advisory Council\, which supports arts programming in California state prisons. She served on the Board of Directors for LA Más\, a non-profit organization that serves BIPOC working class immigrant communities in Northeast Los Angeles. She is a recipient of the City of Los Angeles Individual Artist Fellowship\, the California Arts Council Individual Established Artist Fellowship\, the California Community Foundation Visual Artist Fellowship\, and the Marciano Art Foundation Artadia Award. \nPresented in Partnership with the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities. This project was made possible by a grant from the Arts Initiative at the University of Michigan.\nSeries presenting partners: Detroit PBS\, ALL ARTS\, and PBS Books. Media partner: Michigan Public.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Public Lecture -- \"How We Imagine Victorian Readers\,\" Debra Gettelman (College of the Holy Cross)
DESCRIPTION:The Nineteenth-Century Forum (NCF) invites you to the following public lecture\,\n“How We Imagine Victorian Readers”with guest speaker Debra Gettelman (College of the Holy Cross)Thursday\, March 20th6:00-7:30 PMLocation: 3330 Mason HallOr via Zoom\nPlease contact Alexa Kelly (avkelly@umich.edu) or Torre Puckett (puckettt@umich.edu) with any questions. \nAbstract: The novel reader’s independent imagination has long gotten a bad rap.  Eighteenth-century critics saw potential for moral danger in how novels stimulate a mix of reading\, inventing\, and daydreaming. Early twentieth-century academics established the discipline of literary studies by excluding readers’ free associations from both criticism and the classroom. Literary studies still lacks productive models for the unscripted work the novel reader’s imagination does when it is\, inevitably\, imagining things other than the words on the page.\nAnd yet\, counterintuitively\, highly descriptive and directive Victorian novels offer a model of inviting and grappling with the reader’s imaginative additions to the fictional world. Novelists from Jane Austen to George Eliot use syntax and prose style to stimulate readerly imagining to go beyond the author’s description at every level\, from plot outcomes to character descriptions.  Especially Eliot: Middlemarch uses negation to make readers’ minds move flexibly between what belongs and does not belong to the fictional world. Daniel Deronda uses “we\,” “us\,” and “our” to coax readers into more inclusive versions of human fellowship. Revisiting Eliot’s extensive use of the first-person plural throughout her career reveals her deep understanding—still little acknowledged in literary studies—of how author and reader together construct the fictional world.\nDebra Gettelman is Associate Professor of English at the College of the Holy Cross\, where she is also Dean of the Class of 2027. She is the author of numerous articles and reviews as well as Imagining Otherwise: How Readers Help to Write Nineteenth-Century Novels\, which was published by Princeton University Press in 2024.

SUMMARY:Reception / Open House:\"Angkorian Homecoming\" Opening Reception
DESCRIPTION:Please join us at the Institute for the Humanities Gallery for the opening of Phung Huynh's exhibition *Angkorian Homecoming *immediately following her Penny Stamps Lecture at the Michigan Theater. The opening reception will also feature a brief Cambodian classical dance performance by Mea Lath and the Modern Apsara Company.\n\nAbout the exhibition:\n\nInformed by her experience as a refugee\, Phung Huynh’s projects explore the complexities of displacement\, assimilation\, and cultural negotiation among Cambodian and Vietnamese refugees who have resettled in the United States. She creates detailed graphite portraits on pink donut boxes to highlight the stories of Southeast Asians who have survived war trauma and genocide. Huynh’s serigraph prints about Donut Kids foreground intergenerational gaps as well as bridging the refugee parent and American child through the narratives of Cambodian American children who were raised by donut shop owners in California. Huynh’s most recent work of drawings of Cambodian Buddhist statue heads and photographic prints of decapitated statue bodies on fabric addresses the repatriation of looted Cambodian antiquities in the context of challenging the legacy of colonialism\, unethical museum practices\, and the refugee’s desire to return home.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Prison\, a Prisoner\, and a Prison Guard
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a multimedia exploration of the impact of prisons on countries and communities across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region through the lens of “prison art.” The exhibit delves into the dynamic interplay between incarceration and creative expression to make sense of carceral systems.\n\nBy presenting prison art from various countries in the MENA region\, including Algeria\, Egypt\, Iran\, Iraq\, Lebanon\, Palestine\, Sudan\, Syria\, and Yemen\, this exhibit unfolds as a “journey” into the prison system and demonstrates the ways in which art can be a tool of expression and reconciliation for survivors\, detainees’ families\, and society at large. It promotes drawing parallels between the prison experience in the region and worldwide\, highlights the intentionality of carceral systems\, and expands the conversation to include prison-impacted communities. Viewers are invited to navigate the cross-generational\, human experiences of imprisonment often obscured behind prison walls and within individuals.\n\nCurated by Sumaya Tabbah and Susan Aboeid of The Ḥafathah Collective\, this traveling exhibit was organized by U-M Students Organize for Syria (SOS) in partnership with U-M Library and with support from the U-M Arts Initiative.\n\nPlan to attend the related discussion\, \"Art\, Justice\, and Carcerality: The Role of Creative Expression in the Pursuit of Justice\,\" on February 6.

DESCRIPTION:The exhibit \"Being Mixed Race in a Mono-racially Organized World: Interracial Identity in the U.S. and Around the World — What Research and Mixed Race People Tell Us\" is an exploration into the library's collections about the diversity of mixed race heritage. Through research\, narratives\, demographic data\, and a variety of visual and published materials\, explore multifaceted aspects of mixed race heritage with insights from many perspectives.\n\nThe 2020 U.S. Census illuminated a 276 percent increase in individuals who identify as \"two or more races\" since 2010. In recognition of the growing numbers of mixed race-identifying people at the University of Michigan\, throughout the country\, and across the globe\, we're excited to unveil this new exhibit — a unique exploration of changing demographics and intersectional identities.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:CREES Exhibition. Threading the Needle: Vestiges of Colonialism and Femininity\, an installation by Gluklya
DESCRIPTION:Gluklya’s work is a powerful example of socially engaged art at the intersections of gender\, class\, and cultural identity. By focusing on experiences of female textile workers in Kyrgyzstan\, the artist explores the often-overlooked stories of women affected by Soviet and post-Soviet colonialism. \"Threading the Needle: Vestiges of Colonialism and Femininity\" retells their stories using a diverse range of media — film\, sculpture\, watercolors\, and felt tapestries. Unfolding the implications of economic and societal pressures on women\, Gluklya explores issues of poverty\, isolation\, and exploitation among the garment workers.\n   \n   Personal stories are woven into a broader social context — such as the legacy of the \"Likbez\" (liquidation of illiteracy) campaign among women in Central Asia during Soviet rule and entrenched patriarchal traditions\, like \"Ala Kachuu\" (bride-kidnapping). This dynamic — where colonization and modernization intertwine the individual lives they touch — raises questions about cultural identity and the ethical borders of decolonized research.\n\nThis exhibition was curated by CREES alumna Dianne Beal (BA REES '79). See more of her work here: https://www.diannebeal.com/curatorial.\n   \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at crees@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

Each year\, DigiPaint invites all club members to submit a thematic piece to be printed in a physical zine. This zine is presented in the Shapiro Gallery\, with each illustration individually printed and displayed.\n\nJoin us for an exhibit reception in the Shapiro Gallery on March 20\, 7-9 pm.\n\nSponsored by the U-M Arts Initiative and U-M Library.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:WCEE Exhibition. Threads of Tradition: The Art of Ukrainian Vyshyvanka
DESCRIPTION:The act of embroidering and weaving designs onto cloth is deeply rooted in Ukrainian traditions.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Andy Ross Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:The pieces here are from a large series of works made over the last several years. In them\, Ross explores humor and personal meaning through absurd juxtapositions of pairs of wildly varied images. Each single image is stripped of its original context (be it\, for example\, a history book\, an instruction manual\, or a magazine advertisement)\, placed on a white background like some kind of specimen\, and presented afresh with a new “companion image.” These companion images confront\, contrast and converse with each other\, and thereby build new relationships\, narratives\, jokes\, and contexts.\n\nAndy Ross grew up in Macomb County\, and has been making art in various mediums since the 1970s. He received a BFA degree from College for Creative Studies\, and an MFA degree from University of Michigan. He has taught photography\, art\, and web design at colleges in California and Michigan. His photographs and collages have been exhibited in schools\, galleries\, and museums across the United States.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Angkorian Homecoming
DESCRIPTION:Informed by her experience as a refugee\, Phung Huynh’s projects explore the complexities of displacement\, assimilation\, and cultural negotiation among Cambodian and Vietnamese refugees who have resettled in the United States. She creates detailed graphite portraits on pink donut boxes to highlight the stories of Southeast Asians who have survived war trauma and genocide. Huynh’s serigraph prints about Donut Kids foreground intergenerational gaps as well as bridging the refugee parent and American child through the narratives of Cambodian American children who were raised by donut shop owners in California. Huynh’s most recent work of drawings of Cambodian Buddhist statue heads and photographic prints of decapitated statue bodies on fabric addresses the repatriation of looted Cambodian antiquities in the context of challenging the legacy of colonialism\, unethical museum practices\, and the refugee’s desire to return home.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Elizabeth Boyd-Hartmann Dizik Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:This body of work represents a playful exploration of form\, color\, and scale through the lens of cellular shapes. Inspired by the complex patterns of biological life\, the pieces are a celebration of growth\, transformation\, and the joy of experimentation. The use of non-precious materials\, such as wood balls and paint\, allowed for a liberating approach to composition and color\, while the spherical forms and circular panels evoke the look of petri dishes—symbolizing both scientific curiosity and organic development.\nBorn in Detroit\, Elizabeth is a multidisciplinary artist and mother based in the metro Detroit area\, where she works from a studio in her home. With a background in bench jewelry\, her earlier work focused on studio jewelry and was represented by Galerie Noel Guyomarc’h in Montreal.\nElizabeth’s work has been exhibited both locally and internationally. She holds a BA in Jewelry Design\, with First Class Honours\, from Central Saint Martins in London\, a BFA from the University of Michigan\, and an MFA from Cranbrook Academy of Art\, where she specialized in Metalsmithing and Architecture. Her diverse practice spans jewelry\, sculpture\, and installation\, blending materials and techniques to explore themes of production\, growth\, transformation\, and organic form.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Redefining the Crown
DESCRIPTION:In Winter 2025\, the Lane Hall exhibit space will feature a portraiture series titled Redefining the Crown showcasing the powerful stories of six Black breast cancer survivors.\n\nBased on a photo essay by U-M Faculty Versha Pleasant (MD/MPH) and Ava Purkiss (PhD) in Medicine at Michigan\, this exhibition examines the cultural and personal significance of hair within Black communities\, particularly through the lens of breast cancer treatment and recovery. The term \"crown\" is deeply symbolic in Black culture\, signifying beauty\, strength\, and identity. The featured photo essay by photographer Tafari Stevenson-Howard captures the intimate journeys of Ann Chatman\, Tanisha Kennedy\, Felecia McDaniel\, Shantell Elaine McCoy\, Tamara Lynn Myles\, and Veleria Banks.\n\nThrough their narratives and portraits\, the exhibit examines how these women have navigated the profound impact of hair loss caused by chemotherapy\, inviting the audience to witness their stories with radical empathy. It explores the cultural pride and personal identity intricately tied to their hair\, and how these elements are redefined amidst their battles with breast cancer.\n\nThe exhibit will be on view from January 21\, 2025 to August 8\, 2025. This exhibition is presented with support from IRWG\, the Department of Women's and Gender Studies\, and Michigan Medicine. \n\nLocated on the first floor of Lane Hall (204 S. State Street)\, the Exhibit Space is free and open to the public\, M-F\, 9am-4pm.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Bibliophile and the Library: Private-Press Books from the Collection of Bill Heidrich
DESCRIPTION:View beautifully illustrated books that stand as remarkable testaments to the work of twentieth-century small private presses\, which\, in contrast to the trend of mass commercialization\, produced limited editions that celebrated the uniqueness of manual craftsmanship. Features such as exquisite typeface design\, letterpress printing\, handmade paper\, traditional illustration techniques like woodcut and engraving\, and the inclusion of original art by renowned artists highlight the presses' dedication to artistry and detail.\n\nThe display opens with an edition of \"The Works of Geoffrey Chaucer\,\" published in 1896 by William Morris at his Kelmscott Press\, a pivotal press that greatly influenced the development of the private press movement as a means of preserving and revitalizing the fine printing and art traditions of the past. Additionally\, the exhibit includes some examples of artist’s proofs\, offering a glimpse into the intricate creative process behind these exceptional works.\n\nThese books are on loan from the collection of Bill Heidrich\, a long-time supporter of the University of Michigan Library.

Make Yourself At Home.\n \nA Gathering brings together the newest works of art to enter UMMA’s collection — many on display here for the first time. \n \nAs a free\, public museum\, UMMA staff takes care of art for the benefit of the community and society at large. The works on view in this exhibition\, all brought into the Museum between 2019 and the present\, shows how institutions like UMMA are becoming more permeable to societal challenges\, and more nimble in responding to them in service to all in their communities. In this exhibition you will find works that reflect on how global migrations\, race\, gender\, and ecological change shape the way we engage with the world and inform our visions for the future.\n \nThis collection of artistic engagements with issues give us tools to envision who we want to be as individuals\, as a museum\, and as a society\, connected to one another across space and experience.\n \nSo gather here to take in these latest works of art brought here for you. Gather here to be engulfed in their forms and meanings\, to discuss their takes\, to learn\, to disagree. Gather to relax\, make a friend\, drink a coffee\, finish the daily Wordle. Gather to feel full\, to be moved and inspired by all the possible imaginations of what is yet to come.\n \nCurated by Félix Zamora Gómez Irving Stenn\, Jr. Fellow in Public Humanities & Museum Pedagogy\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by Lizzie and Jonathan Tisch\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Office of the Provost.\n

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Additionality and Asymmetric Information in Environmental Markets: Evidence from Conservation Auctions
DESCRIPTION:Market mechanisms aim to reduce environmental degradation at low cost\, but they are undermined when participants’ conservation actions are not marginal to the incentive — or “additional” — as the lowest-cost participants may not be the highest social value. We investigate this challenge in the Conservation Reserve Program’s auction mechanism for ecosystem services\, linking bids to satellite-derived land use. Three-quarters of marginal auction winners are not additional. The heterogeneity in counterfactual land use introduces adverse selection. We develop a model of bidding and additionality to quantify welfare implications. Alternative auctions increase efficiency by using scoring rules that incorporate expected land use impacts.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CRAFT LECTURE: Proleptic Form: Toward a Poetics of Self Defense
DESCRIPTION:Login here (no pre-registration needed): https://tinyurl.com/ZellWriters24\n\nSeats are limited and are offered on a first come\, first served basis\; please arrive early to secure a spot.\n\nZell Visiting Writers Series craft lectures are free and open to the public\, and will be offered both virtually (via Zoom) and in person (in The Robert Hayden Conference Room\, Angell Hall #3222). Please contact kimjulie@umich.edu with any questions or accommodation needs.\n\nOf her lecture\, \"Proleptic Form: Toward a Poetics of Self Defense\,\" Monica says\, \"In rhetoric\, prolepsis is the anticipation of possible counterarguments or objections in order to answer them in advance. It’s a defensive posture\, one that assumes in advance that the speaker will be criticized or attacked. So it seems appropriate that proleptic form – a poetics of self defense – would be particularly the province of those groups who are accustomed to being attacked\, to constantly rebutting spoken and unspoken accusations of being overemotional\, hypersensitive\, irrational\, lazy\, unnuanced\, non-objective\, trivial\, overly political\, of always playing the race card\, the gender card\, the sexuality card\, the class card\, pick a card. Proleptic form assumes an audience not of the speaker’s tribe\, potentially a hostile audience\, an audience assumed to be in a dominant position in society\, often a White audience\, a cishet audience etc. I’ll look at some well-known examples\, Phillis Wheatley\, Bhanu Kapil\, Robin Coste Lewis\, Claudia Rankine\, Layli Long Soldier\, and Paul Tran and try to identify certain characteristics of proleptic form.\"\n \nMonica Youn is the author of four poetry collections\, most recently *FROM FROM*\, which won the Anisfield-Wolf Award and was a finalist for the 2023 National Book Award. It was also named a *New York Times Book Review Notable Book* and Best Poetry Book of 2023 and was a *Time*\, *NPR*\, *Publishers Weekly*\, *Library Journal*\, and *Electric Literature* Best Book of 2023. She has been awarded the Levinson Prize from the Poetry Foundation\, the William Carlos Williams Award of the Poetry Society of America\, a Guggenheim Fellowship\, a Witter Bytter Fellowship from the Library of Congress\, and a Stegner Fellowship. Her previous books have been shortlisted for the National Book Award\, the National Book Critics Circle Award and the Kingsley Tufts Award. A former constitutional lawyer\, she is a member of the curatorial collective the Racial Imaginary Institute and is a professor of English at UC Irvine. \n\nTess Taylor\, on *NPR’s All Things Considered*\, declared that “Monica Youn is one of the most consistently innovative poets working today.” As John Yau has put it\, “In every generation there is a handful of poets who challenge the way we think about language and how it is used. . . . It is to this distinguished company that Youn now belongs.” Claudia Rankine has called Youn’s work “disconcerting in its spectatorship and breathtaking in its beauty\,\" and Linda Gregerson says\, “Monica Youn\, quite simply\, is one of the two or three most brilliant poets working in America today.”  \n\nFor any questions about the event or to share accommodation needs\, please email kimjulie@umich.edu--we are eager to help ensure this event is inclusive to you. The building\, event space\, and restrooms are wheelchair accessible. Diaper changing tables are available in nearby restrooms. Gender-inclusive restrooms are available on the second floor of the Museum\, accessible via the stairs\, or in nearby Hatcher Graduate Library (Floors 3\, 4\, 5\, and 6).

SUMMARY:Other:Leaves Under the Lens
DESCRIPTION:The leaf surface is a dynamic landscape where tiny\, specialized structures help plants interact with the world around them. Let’s bring this world into view! Join us for an exhibit that highlights the complex and often beautiful anatomy of leaves from the Matthaei collection. Plants throughout the conservatory will be paired with microscope photographs and micro-CT scans that illustrate the otherwise invisible structures that protect leaves from chewing insects\, absorb (or repel!) water\, and even recruit “bodyguards”. You won’t look at leaves the same way again! \n\nThis project is a collaboration between MBGNA and the Weber and Vasconcelos labs in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology\, led by PhD student Rosemary Glos.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Research Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Louisiana State University associate sport management professor Per G. Svensson will give a presentation titled\, \"Accelerating Impact: Resource Mobilization and Innovation in Sport for Development.\" Light refreshments served. SKB room 2080 (directly above Diag entrance).\n\nRSVP: https://myumi.ch/ny52k\n\nAbstract: The field of sport for development and peace has attracted significant attention and has become increasingly formalized during the past 25-30 years. These types of organizations intentionally leverage sport for the purpose of achieving a set of social change-focused outcomes. The aim of this presentation is to share my personal journey of seeking to help such community-based sport organizations better serve their social missions. First\, I will highlight the unique context of sport for development and peace organizations for studying resource mobilization and organizational capacity. Second\, I will explore how these sport organizations have enabled important advances on social innovation within resource-constrained environments. Third\, I will discuss the development of experimental ways for advancing knowledge and developing more impactful ways for supporting the future generation of sport for social change organizations. Last\, I will reflect on my experience in publishing across top-ranked journals both within and outside of the sport management discipline on non-mainstream topics and contexts. In doing so\, I aim to identify key lessons learned for accelerating impact both in practice and in scholarship through sport management research. Additionally\, I will endeavor to identify expected future trends in flagship journals within sport management.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Statistics Department Distinguished Alumni Speaker Series: Daniel Almirall\, Associate Professor\, Institute for Social Research\, Research Associate Professor\, Department of Statistics\, University of Michigan.
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: An adaptive intervention is a sequence of decision rules that guide the provision of intervention at critical decision points based on the evolving needs of individuals.  In many health\, education and policy settings\, adaptive interventions target clusters of individuals (e.g.\, clinics or schools)\, with the intent of improving outcomes at the level of individuals. These are called clustered adaptive interventions (cAIs).  Clustered\, sequential\, multiple-assignment\, randomized trials (cSMART) can be used to form high-quality clustered adaptive interventions. This non-technical talk introduces clustered adaptive interventions and cSMARTs\, and presents current and past research concerning the design and analysis of cSMARTs.  This includes recent work with University of Michigan students on finite-sample adjustment methods for the marginal mean comparison of cAIs (with W. Pan)\, an extension of moderator analyses using ideas from Q-learning (with Y. Song)\, and a three-level analysis method (with G. Durham)—i.e.\, repeated measures nested within individuals\, nested within clusters. It also includes a new cSMART design for the construction of event-triggered cAIs (with M. Ferlic). Time-permitting\, the talk ends by describing current challenges in the design and analysis of multilevel SMARTs\, a special type of clustered SMART\, whereby nested groups of individuals are randomized sequentially (e.g.\, a clinic-level randomization followed by a doctor-within-clinic-level randomization) leading to interesting questions concerning causal spillover. Throughout\, I draw on multiple examples from implementation science\, a relatively new area that concerns the optimization and evaluation of clustered interventions to improve the adoption of evidence-based practices.\n\n\nhttps://d3c.isr.umich.edu/person/daniel-almirall/

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism
DESCRIPTION:Organized as a response to the Museum’s recent acquisition of Titus Kaphar’s Flay (James Madison)\, this upcoming reinstallation of one of our most prominent gallery spaces forces us to grapple with our collection of European and American art\, 1650-1850.\n \nIn recent times\, growing public awareness of the continued reverberations of the legacy of slavery and colonization has challenged museums to examine the uncomfortable histories contained in our collections\, and challenged the public to probe the choices we make about those stories. Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n

SUMMARY:Performance:The Politics of Theater: A Conversation with Professor Juliet Guzzetta (MSU) & Italian Author & Actor Giuliana Musso
DESCRIPTION:Can the live arts address societal urgent issues and if so\, how? Join us for a conversation about what it means to do political theater in today's world with award-winning Italian author and actor Giuliana Musso and theater studies scholar Juliet Guzzetta (MSU).  \n\nThis conversation follows the *Dentro (Inside)* performance at the Wharton Center for the Performing Arts in East Lansing on Thursday\, March 20th. The Department of Romance Languages and Literatures has set tickets aside for students interested in the play and is also organizing a shuttle to drive students and faculty to the performance Thursday night. Seats are limited so please sign up here if interested. \n\nAttendance to the play is not necessary to be part of this conversation which will touch upon questions of theater\, political engagement\, and activism more broadly.\n\nABOUT JULIET GUZZETTA AND GULIANA MUSSO:\n\n*Juliet Guzzetta* is Associate Professor with joint appointments in the Department of English and the Department of Romance and Classical Studies at Michigan State University. Her first book\, The Theater of Narration: From the Peripheries of History to the Main Stages of Italy (Northwestern UP\, 2021\; honorable mention\, MLA\, Scaglione Publication Award in Italian Literary Studies\; translation in Italian by Accademia University Press\, 2023)\, explores a form of contemporary solo theater in its historical\, political\, and performative dimensions. In addition to numerous essays in journals and edited volumes\, she recently co-edited an issue of gender/sexuality/italy on the concept of “conservative feminisms” with Ombretta Frau\, and published a translation of Giuliana Musso's *Dentro*. Una storia vera se volete. Currently she is co-editing a collection on Italian feminist thought with Graziella Parati titled *Italian Feminisms: Transnational Praxes for Today and Tomorrow*. She was recently awarded a 12-month Fellowship from the National Endowment for the Humanities for her current monograph in progress\, *Acting Class: Lessons from Franca Rame*\, which centers Rame’s performances and activism as a model for political discourse\, socially committed artistry\, and grounded wide-ranging critique.\n\n*Giuliana Musso* is an acclaimed Italian playwright\, actress\, and director\, celebrated for her impactful storytelling and exploration of complex societal issues through the medium of documentary theatre. Over her two-decade career\, Musso has written plays that merge fiction with real-life accounts\, focusing on themes such as gender\, identity\, and human rights. Among her most recognized works are Nati in casa\, which portrays the intimate world of Italian midwifery and birth\, Sexmachine\, an exploration of masculinity and vulnerability\, and Mio eroe\, which examines families affected by war and the nuanced concept of heroism. Her recent play\, *Dentro* examines the private struggles and unspoken truths that shape individuals\, inviting the audience to confront the emotional landscapes that often remain unseen. Musso’s unique blend of empathy\, incisive social commentary\, and humor has cemented her as a significant voice in contemporary European theatre\, earning her numerous accolades and a devoted following.

SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Data & Research Methods Project: Office Hours
DESCRIPTION:All students are invited to join this free and open data science research project which can be used to supplement your digital research portfolio! On Friday\, March 21st\, we will meet for our next open Office Hours session to troubleshoot participant projects. Register and learn more: https://nebigdatahub.org/drm-project/ The Data &amp\; Research Methods project is perfect for beginners who have never worked with a dataset before. This project will also be helpful for advanced data science students who have little experience working with data cleaning or survey building\, desk research\, or data visualizations. The focus of this project is the research process as a whole.It is the first day of your new job as the Junior Data Scientist for the Office of the Mayor in the fictional town of Data Lake\, West Dakota. The population of Data Lake (314\,159) has grown rapidly since 2020 as a number of remote workers have relocated to the mid-size city. Mayor “Tess Ellation” has tasked your office with a project – to learn more about the specific needs of the town’s new remote work population. She asks you to review data on remote workers provided by the U.S. Census Bureau and come back to her with at least two data-driven policy recommendations which will support these new Data Lake families (for example\, a policy recommendation might be: build new coworking spaces downtown). Your policy recommendationsmust be informed by data analysis or Mayor Ellation will not adopt them. Participants will clean a dataset\, learn about the ethics of datascience research\, do some preliminary analysis\, and develop a working hypothesis about the impact of remote work policies. You'll build some simple data visualizations\, test your hypotheses\, write up a short conclusion\, and prepare a final report for Mayor Ellation. There are 9 Milestones in this project. There are several Tasks you need to complete within each Milestone. This project should take you no more than 30 hours to finish. Depending on your skill level\, it may take you less time.Inthis project\, you will learn using a combination of videos\, articles\, and external data work in spreadsheets. Our team has provided you with several external links and resources which will supplement your learning.Project participants who complete Milestones 1-9 in accordance with these instructions will receive a Certificate of Completion from the NSDC Project Team.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Michelle Hinojosa: Logcabins
DESCRIPTION:Stamps Gallery commissioned Michelle Hinojosa (MFA\, 2023) to reimagine the pillars on Division Street that flank the Gallery. Hinojosa has created log cabin quilts to adorn the columns in front of Stamps Gallery. The log cabin quilts traditionally represent the warm hearth at the center of a home. This installation reflects on the interplay between home\, placemaking\, labor\, and intergenerational memories of migration. Rather than quilting cotton designed to softly embrace the body\, these quilts are sewn from outdoor grade\, UV-resistant polyester. The quilt is an ode to Hinojosa’s grandmother who illegally crossed the US/Mexico border holding her babies and her quilts. As she and her family drove across the United States to work in the fields of the Salinas Valley\, the quilts offered a safe space for her and her family. Hinojosa celebrates their resilience to her grandmother and elders while also drawing attention to precarity and violence experienced by refugees and migrants crossing the US-Mexico border in our present today.\nArtist’s bio:\nMichelle Inez Hinojosa is an artist\, educator\, and researcher whose work is informed by Indigenous and Latine/x/a/o studies. Born and raised in Texas\, she earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in both drawing and painting and art education with a minor in art history at the University of North Texas. She holds a Master of Fine Arts from the University of Michigan. She works with quilting\, bead weaving\, embroidery\, jewelry\, transparent film installations\, painting\, ceramics\, and sculpture to honor and explore the history of migration in her family and humanize the current discourse around migration still occurring at the southern border. Alongside her artwork she maintains a writing practice to re-story\, re-make\, and re-claim the often subordinated narratives of Latinx\, Chicanx\, Mexican\, and Texican peoples. \n\nRecently\, Hinojosa was named an inaugural Creative Careers Artist in Residence at the University of Michigan\, she has also attended residencies at Mildred's Lane (Pennsylvania)\, Anderson Ranch Art Center (Aspen\, CO) and The Cedars Union (Dallas\, TX).

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Friday Lecture Series. Gambling Coastal Lives: Surprises and Precarity in the Coastal Philippines
DESCRIPTION:Surprises in the form of risks and uncertainties reinforce and sometimes complicate the vulnerability and precarity of human and nonhuman lives. We see such complex relations unfold in the coastal Philippines\, where struggling smallholder fishers bear a significant share of the impacts of climate change\, marine ecosystem collapse\, and market failures. Montefrio explores how human and nonhuman coastal lives and their socio-material relations negotiate\, co-constitute\, and embody surprises in predictable and confounding ways. In his ethnographic work in Capiz\, he examines the interactions among the smallholder fishers and the fishing infrastructures they build\, the inshore fish they catch\, the erratic weather that surprises them\, the neoliberal regime that governs them\, the debt they accumulate\, and the precarious lives they live. Surprises brought about by extreme weather and other stressors impel smallholder fishers to engage in greater risk-taking behaviors akin to gambling. Left to their own devices\, smallholder fishers negotiate surprises with a modest sense of control\, shaping their material world as best as they can to improve their lives. Often\, they are resigned to just the luck of the draw.\n\nZoom link: https://myumi.ch/qVN9Q\n   \n   Marvin Montefrio is an associate professor of social science (environmental studies) at Yale-NUS College in Singapore and an affiliate faculty of the Department of Sociology and Anthropology at the National University of Singapore (NUS). He is also a faculty fellow of the Food Politics and Society Cluster of the Asia Research Institute at NUS. Marvin specializes in food\, agrarian\, and environmental studies\, with a specific interest in food and sustainability in Southeast Asia.\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at cseas@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:More than Gray: Reimagining Early America in Full Color
DESCRIPTION:The American past was lived in full color\, but this vibrant history can be easily missed in surviving evidence. You can’t deny that there’s something about a black-and-white photograph that feels… stuffy. With portraits showing people with their shirts buttoned right to the neck and everything in shades of gray and brown\, our imaginations can incline to thinking of the past as a bit staid\, if not downright dull. But look a little closer\, and you’ll see signs that the fashion choices available to those who came before us were more colorful than you might first think. From the fabrics they wore\, to the games they played\, or the books they read\, their world was alive with bright hues. This exhibit invites you to reimagine history with a fuller color palette and picture the vibrancy and joy that just might be hidden behind the unsmiling photographs.\n\nExhibition opening weekdays from 12-4.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Structure\, dynamics\, and misfolding of the glaucoma-associated myocilin olfactomedin domain: How a protein’s structure spells the difference between health and disease
DESCRIPTION:Mutations within the olfactomedin domain of myocilin (OLF) cause cytotoxic amyloid-like aggregation in the endoplasmic reticulum\, which in turn hasten the progression of vision loss due to glaucoma. Despite progress in molecular characterization of OLF at a molecular level\, differentiating disease from benign mutations remains a challenge. In this talk I will present recent findings from my lab on the emerging relationship between OLF unfolding and aggregation and how this relationship may relate to its pathogenic misfolding. Broadly\, our study of myocilin illustrates complexities introduced by large amyloid-forming proteins when undergoing folded-to-misfolded transitions compared to smaller model amyloid systems.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:13th Annual Marshall M. Weinberg Symposium
DESCRIPTION:The 2025 theme is \"What do large language models tell us about human language?\" Three big claims have dominated the last half century of thinking in cognitive science about language. First\, language relies on a system of abstract syntactic rules and principles. Second\, these rules and principles are too complex to be learned by children without an innate linguistic faculty. Third\, developing competence in language requires social interaction grounded in the real world. The last few years have seen the advent of large language models\, neural networks that learn to produce fluent language “from scratch”\, trained on data from the internet. Do large language models force us to reconsider any of these big claims\, and if so\, how should we revise our understanding of language?

SUMMARY:Presentation:Dissertation Defense: One-dimensional Wave Kinetic Theory
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nKinetic theory aims to write effective equations for the statistical laws arising in microscopic systems with many degrees of freedom. Such equations\, referred to as kinetic equations\, have been studied dating back to the Boltzmann equation in the late 1800's\, and were later proposed for wave systems in the mid-1900's. Wave kinetic equations play an important role in the study of oceanography\, plasma physics\, and atmospheric science\, to name just a few areas. Rigorous justification of these equations has been much more recent and falls under the umbrella of Hilbert's sixth problem.\n\nAlthough wave kinetic equations have been rigorously derived in dimension d \geq $\, both the physical and mathematical theory of wave turbulence in dimension d = 1 is less understood. Here\, we look at the one-dimensional MMT (Majda\, McLaughlin\, and Tabak) model\, a general model encompassing many dispersion relations \omega(k) = |k|^\sigma\, where we consider 0 < \sigma < 2 and \sigma \neq 1. In particular\, this includes the dispersion relations for the 1D cubic NLS (\sigma = 2) and gravity water waves (\sigma = 1/2). We restrict to the case where there are no derivatives in the nonlinearity\, and consider the MMT on a large interval of length L with nonlinearity of size \alpha.\n\nHere\, we rigorously derive the kinetic equation in the kinetic limit L \to \infty and \alpha \to 0 under various scaling laws \alpha \sim L^{-\gamma} up to timescales T \sim L^{-\epsilon}\alpha^{-\frac{5}{4}} (or T \sim L^{-\epsilon} T_{kin}^{5/8})\, where the kinetic time T_{kin} is the relevant timescale on which the kinetic approximation is expected. Notably\, in the range of 1 < \sigma \leq 2\, the proposed collision kernel of the kinetic equation is trivial\, begging the question of what is the appropriate kinetic theory in that setting. In this case\, our result implies there can be no nontrivial dynamics of the second moment up to timescales T_{kin}.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Computational Geometry for Design Optimization
DESCRIPTION:Numerical analysis and optimization are valuable tools for aircraft design\, especially for new configurations with little historical data or designer intuition. However\, complex designs can be excluded from high-fidelity design optimization due to limitations in how geometry is handled.\nNew geometric parameterizations and constraints have not been studied in depth and few methods allow for the optimization of designs with intersections. This research opens optimization to a larger range of aircraft designs by addressing gaps in understanding of the performance of different geometric parameterizations and the effects of spatial integration constraints as well as developing two methods for optimizing designs with intersections.\n\nIn-Person 1044 FXB (McDivitt Conference Room) or Virtual: https://umich.zoom.us/j/91726076075 (passcode: geo)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Public Service Organizations and Institutional Pluralism: How Structural Filtering Generates Inequality in Client Service and Complicates Mission Fulfillment
DESCRIPTION:Public service organizations (PSOs) in the United States are mission-driven entities that reflect American commitments to democratic opportunity. They also are emblematic “institutionalized organizations” whose legitimacy and success depend on isomorphism with rules or “logics” of their institutional environment. Given the complex\, pluralistic nature of PSOs’ institutional environment\, what determines whether organizational actors can prioritize logics aligned with American opportunity? And if they cannot\, what are the consequences—both for their clients’ organizational experiences and for the broader imperative of mission fulfillment? In this paper\, we answer these questions using the case of public U.S. higher education\, drawing on unique interview data gathered from organizational actors and their clients (here\, students). We find that internal structural attributes—including role specialization\, task standardization\, and centralization of resource-based decision making—and the related process of structural filtering\, centrally drive organizational actors’ logic prioritization and in turn\, profoundly impact the character of client interactions and mission fulfillment. Specifically\, when structural filtering prevents organizational actors from prioritizing democratic logics\, student experiences decline in quality and become more unequal: patterns misaligned with mission fulfillment. We conclude by discussing implications for the organizational production of inequality and for public trust in PSOs.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Economic Theory Seminar: Friday\, March 21
DESCRIPTION:We study the design of mechanisms when the designer faces multiple plausible scenarios and is uncertain about the true scenario. A mechanism is dominated by another if the latter performs at least as well in all plausible scenarios and strictly better in at least one. A mechanism is undominated if no other feasible mechanism dominates it. We show how analyzing undominated mechanisms could be useful and illustrate the tractability of characterizing such mechanisms. This approach provides an alternative criterion for mechanism design under non-Bayesian uncertainty\, complementing existing methods.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:AIM Seminar:  Spectral diffusion in wave turbulence
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:  Classical concept in turbulence is an energy cascade from large to small scales leading to the famous Kolmogorov spectrum.  In Wave Turbulence (WT)\, where the fundamental motions are random interacting waves rather than hydrodynamic vortices\, an analogue to the Kolmogorov spectrum is a Kolmogorov-Zakharov spectrum describing stationary states with a constant energy flux from long to short wave modes. The Kolmogorov scenario relies on a locality property which assumes that the dominant nonlinear interaction occurs among scales (e.g. wave lengths) of similar sizes. This property is violated in some important WT systems\, and one has to construct alternative theories describing interactions of widely separated scales.  An important example here is the spectral diffusion describing evolution of WT when the dominant interactions are with an infrared end of the spectrum. In my talk\, I will introduce the main ideas\, mathematical descriptions and results for the WT systems arising in several well-known applications: water surface gravity waves\, internal waves\, planetary Rossby waves and MMT models.\n\nContact:  Zaher Hani

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Dual Schubert polynomials and Postnikov-Stanley polynomials (Combinatorics Seminar)
DESCRIPTION:Dual Schubert polynomials and their skew generalization\, Postnikov-Stanley polynomials\, possess deep geometric and algebraic properties. Dual Schubert polynomials\, introduced by Bernstein\, Gelfand\, and Gelfand in 1973\, represent the intersection degrees of Schubert varieties via Borel-Weil embeddings. In 2005\, Postnikov and Stanley further showed that these polynomials form a dual basis to Schubert polynomials in the polynomial ring with infinitely many variables under the D-pairing\, demonstrating that\, despite their distinct geometric and combinatorial definitions\, they encode the same information. Thus\, research on dual Schubert polynomials sheds new light on classical problems in Schubert calculus.\n\nIn joint work with Serena An and Katherine Tung\, we extend this perspective to the study of Postnikov-Stanley polynomials\, proving that they represent the intersection degrees of Richardson varieties via Borel-Weil embeddings\, and are therefore Lorentzian polynomials. Additionally\, we provide an elegant and complete characterization of the supports of dual Schubert polynomials\, which leads to a polynomial-time algorithm for determining whether a given term appears in a dual Schubert polynomial. I will also discuss open problems related to Postnikov-Stanley polynomials and their broader implications for Schubert calculus.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:HET Seminar | The Full Spectrum of Thermal Dark Matter
DESCRIPTION:This seminar presents a comprehensive analysis of thermal relic freezeout mechanisms\, deriving simple-to-use analytical relationships between dark matter mass and coupling strengths that explain the observed cosmic abundance. This unified framework reveals a generalized perturbative unitarity bound on dark matter mass applicable across the full spectrum of thermal freezeout processes.\nNotably\, I will demonstrate how thermal dark matter masses can exceed the conventional 100 TeV unitarity limit—potentially reaching the Planck scale—through mechanisms involving nearly degenerate states and metastable dark matter configurations. Specifically\, I will introduce new concepts like zombie and drunk dark matter to enable the realization of superheavy thermal dark matter. Finally\, I will show that weak-scale thermal dark matter can naturally arise even in scenarios with extremely small coupling strengths.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Student Algebraic Geometry: Mixed Hodge Structures
DESCRIPTION:Hodge theory is a central area of algebraic geometry\, and one of its celebrated achievements is Deligne's Mixed Hodge structures introduced in the 70s. These structures generalize classical Hodge theory\, extending it from the cohomology of smooth projective varieties to that of all varieties.\n\nThe goal of this talk is to introduce Mixed Hodge structures for smooth varieties and see some of their applications. In particular\, we will prove the Global Invariant Cycle Theorem.\n\n If time permits\, we will also discuss an application to the cohomology of algebraic varieties and a connection between Hodge theory and singularities.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Smith Lecture - Kristin Bergmann\, MIT
DESCRIPTION:With this talk\, I explore pre-Cenozoic glaciations to answer the following questions: \"What is the record of ice volume and extent through time\, and can this be reconciled with the oxygen isotope record?\". Utilizing carbonate-clumped isotope thermometry and integrating observations from the geologic record\, I will first examine the end-Ordovician glaciation—a test case that exhibits both similarities to and differences from Cenozoic glaciation. Prior to glaciation\, a long-term gradual cooling trend is mirrored by Ordovician radiation in biological diversity\, consistent with temperature-dependent oxygen solubility and metabolism as primary controls. Evidence for significant ice growth is constrained to less than 2 Myr of the Hirnantian Stage\, underscoring the high sensitivity of ice growth to pCO₂ and temperature. Our independent estimates for ice volume\, area\, and sea-level change during the Hirnantian glacial maximum are internally consistent and comparable to those of the Last Glacial Maximum. In addition to our work documenting cooling in the lead-up to the end-Ordovician Hirnantian glaciation\, our targeted geographic studies have also allowed us to reconstruct progressive and protracted cooling before the Sturtian Snowball Earth glaciation and the Late Paleozoic Ice Age. These three case studies suggest that a cool\, low pCO₂ climate is a prerequisite for glaciation\, even Snowball Earth\, and highlight the importance of identifying and constraining meteoric alteration associated with large amplitude sea level change before interpreting isotope records. The implications of these results extend to refining current paleoclimate models\, especially in understanding transitions from greenhouse to icehouse conditions.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Engendering Respectful Communities - AY24 - 25 Workshops
DESCRIPTION:Engendering Respectful Communities (ERC) is a one session workshop that engages graduate students in meaningful dialogue about various forms of sexual misconduct they may encounter in both professional and social spaces\, and provides resources for intervention or support in such circumstances.\n\nThe primary goal of the workshop is to address complexities experienced by graduate students as they engage in bystander intervention\, so that participants gain an increase in awareness of barriers to action and familiarity with strategic planning to overcome them. The workshop also introduces participants to on-campus resources and provides knowledge on how sexual misconduct can unfold in graduate-specific settings.\nThe ERC workshop uses small-group circles intended to promote active reflection and space to build community. The procedure of circles is introduced at the beginning of the workshop in order to help participants get used to the process\, which they do through a circle for introductions and value-sharing for the workshop space. These circles depict various\, realistic scenarios related to sexual misconduct within the graduate community. The circle process allows circle members to process the monologues\, reflect on complexities with identity and power dynamics within them\, name potential barriers to intervention\, and think of various ways in which they might respond if faced with similar situations. The circles provide a way to foster collective building of ideas\, where participants learn from one another and all input is equally valued. Participants are encouraged to share but can always pass if desired\, creating an environment where participation is open but not forced. Due to the participatory nature of the workshop\, if you are to arrive more than 20 minutes late\, we will ask you to re-register for another workshop session.If you have any questions about or concerns with taking this workshop\, or are in need of an exemption\, please contact jhippe@umich.edu or fill out this form. We know some students come to campus having already experienced harm. If you have circumstances that make completing this course challenging\, please reach out to the GROPWE team. SAPAC GROWE provides exemptions to the ERC workshop (where requirements are set in place) on a case by case basis. The Program Manager will communicate with students requesting exemptions via email and/or meet with students via zoom meetings to discuss their need for exemptions and provide any relevant and necessary resources.

SUMMARY:Ceremony / Service:Health Equity Gala
DESCRIPTION:The University of Michigan’s chapter of Partners in Health Engage is proud to host the inaugural Health Equity Gala\, an evening dedicated to advancing awareness and collaboration in the fight for global health justice. As a student-led chapter of the internationally renowned Partners in Health organization\, we are committed to advocating for equitable healthcare solutions\, amplifying marginalized voices\, and inspiring systemic change.This gala stems from a rich history of grassroots movements that recognize healthcare as a human right\, not a privilege. Founded on the belief that every individual deserves access to quality healthcare regardless of socioeconomic status\, our chapter has consistently worked to uphold this vision through advocacy\, education\, and service. The gala represents a new chapter in our mission: uniting campus organizations and community members around the shared goal of addressing critical global and public health challenges.The Health Equity Gala serves as a platform to spotlight the disparities in healthcare access\, particularly in the context of an evolving political landscape where conservative policies may threaten progress in public health equity. By bringing together a diverse coalition of public health and global health organizations on campus\, we aim to foster dialogue\, share resources\, and build actionable strategies to combat these disparities.We invite you to join us in celebrating the power of collective action and the potential for transformative change. Together\, we can advocate for a more equitable world and ensure that health is prioritized as a universal human right.

SUMMARY:Performance:Joy Clark
DESCRIPTION:Louisiana born-and-raised singer-songwriter and guitarist Joy Clark is charting her own path with her debut album “Tell it to the Wind.” As the youngest of five children born into a tight knit\, deeply religious family just outside of New Orleans\, her release is both a declaration of her independence and a love letter to the traditions that shaped her.\n\nJoy’s songcraft\, paired with sophisticated progressions\, and themes of freedom\, love and self-acceptance gained her notice on the national folk and Americana scenes just a few years ago with appearances at Americanafest. Joy teamed up with one of her musical heroes\, 4x Grammy-nominated Margaret Becker\, to make her debut album. \"Tell it to the Wind\" marks Clark’s arrival on the national stage as a proud\, queer\, Black woman blending the social consciousness of folk\, the rhythms of Southeast Louisiana\, and the soul-centered music she grew up with.

SUMMARY:Performance:The Charcuterie Board Show
DESCRIPTION:Charcuterie Board is similar to RCP's Evening of Scenes\, but with a stronger emphasis on serious\, thought-provoking pieces that explore a range of themes. While some scenes are student-written\, the majority are drawn from various forms of media that have inspired our directors and performers\, allowing them to bring compelling narratives to life on stage. Each story performed on stage serves as a unique ingredient on this metaphorical charcuterie board\, offering the audience a carefully curated selection of moments—some sharp with tension\, others rich with emotion\, and some subtly profound. Just like a well-balanced board\, every scene contributes something distinct\, creating an experience that is both diverse and immersive\, leaving the audience with a taste of many different perspectives and storytelling styles.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Multiracial Families: Increasing Rapidly
DESCRIPTION:This digital exhibit in the Shapiro Lobby showcases research about and narratives from people across the globe who are part of mixed race families.\n\nIn 1967\, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in the Loving v. Virginia case that marriage across racial lines was legal throughout the country. Intermarriage has increased steadily since then: one in five U.S. newlyweds (19%) were married to a person of a different race or ethnicity in 2019\, a more than sixfold increase from 3% in 1967 (Pew Research Center\, 2022).

SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Prison\, a Prisoner\, and a Prison Guard
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a multimedia exploration of the impact of prisons on countries and communities across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region through the lens of “prison art.” The exhibit delves into the dynamic interplay between incarceration and creative expression to make sense of carceral systems.\n\nBy presenting prison art from various countries in the MENA region\, including Algeria\, Egypt\, Iran\, Iraq\, Lebanon\, Palestine\, Sudan\, Syria\, and Yemen\, this exhibit unfolds as a “journey” into the prison system and demonstrates the ways in which art can be a tool of expression and reconciliation for survivors\, detainees’ families\, and society at large. It promotes drawing parallels between the prison experience in the region and worldwide\, highlights the intentionality of carceral systems\, and expands the conversation to include prison-impacted communities. Viewers are invited to navigate the cross-generational\, human experiences of imprisonment often obscured behind prison walls and within individuals.\n\nCurated by Sumaya Tabbah and Susan Aboeid of The Ḥafathah Collective\, this traveling exhibit was organized by U-M Students Organize for Syria (SOS) in partnership with U-M Library and with support from the U-M Arts Initiative.\n\nPlan to attend the related discussion\, \"Art\, Justice\, and Carcerality: The Role of Creative Expression in the Pursuit of Justice\,\" on February 6.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Being Mixed Race in a Mono-racially Organized World
DESCRIPTION:The exhibit \"Being Mixed Race in a Mono-racially Organized World: Interracial Identity in the U.S. and Around the World — What Research and Mixed Race People Tell Us\" is an exploration into the library's collections about the diversity of mixed race heritage. Through research\, narratives\, demographic data\, and a variety of visual and published materials\, explore multifaceted aspects of mixed race heritage with insights from many perspectives.\n\nThe 2020 U.S. Census illuminated a 276 percent increase in individuals who identify as \"two or more races\" since 2010. In recognition of the growing numbers of mixed race-identifying people at the University of Michigan\, throughout the country\, and across the globe\, we're excited to unveil this new exhibit — a unique exploration of changing demographics and intersectional identities.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Bibliophile and the Library: Private-Press Books from the Collection of Bill Heidrich
DESCRIPTION:View beautifully illustrated books that stand as remarkable testaments to the work of twentieth-century small private presses\, which\, in contrast to the trend of mass commercialization\, produced limited editions that celebrated the uniqueness of manual craftsmanship. Features such as exquisite typeface design\, letterpress printing\, handmade paper\, traditional illustration techniques like woodcut and engraving\, and the inclusion of original art by renowned artists highlight the presses' dedication to artistry and detail.\n\nThe display opens with an edition of \"The Works of Geoffrey Chaucer\,\" published in 1896 by William Morris at his Kelmscott Press\, a pivotal press that greatly influenced the development of the private press movement as a means of preserving and revitalizing the fine printing and art traditions of the past. Additionally\, the exhibit includes some examples of artist’s proofs\, offering a glimpse into the intricate creative process behind these exceptional works.\n\nThese books are on loan from the collection of Bill Heidrich\, a long-time supporter of the University of Michigan Library.

SUMMARY:Other:Leaves Under the Lens
DESCRIPTION:The leaf surface is a dynamic landscape where tiny\, specialized structures help plants interact with the world around them. Let’s bring this world into view! Join us for an exhibit that highlights the complex and often beautiful anatomy of leaves from the Matthaei collection. Plants throughout the conservatory will be paired with microscope photographs and micro-CT scans that illustrate the otherwise invisible structures that protect leaves from chewing insects\, absorb (or repel!) water\, and even recruit “bodyguards”. You won’t look at leaves the same way again! \n\nThis project is a collaboration between MBGNA and the Weber and Vasconcelos labs in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology\, led by PhD student Rosemary Glos.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Gathering
DESCRIPTION:Welcome. Make Yourself At Home.\n \nA Gathering brings together the newest works of art to enter UMMA’s collection — many on display here for the first time. \n \nAs a free\, public museum\, UMMA staff takes care of art for the benefit of the community and society at large. The works on view in this exhibition\, all brought into the Museum between 2019 and the present\, shows how institutions like UMMA are becoming more permeable to societal challenges\, and more nimble in responding to them in service to all in their communities. In this exhibition you will find works that reflect on how global migrations\, race\, gender\, and ecological change shape the way we engage with the world and inform our visions for the future.\n \nThis collection of artistic engagements with issues give us tools to envision who we want to be as individuals\, as a museum\, and as a society\, connected to one another across space and experience.\n \nSo gather here to take in these latest works of art brought here for you. Gather here to be engulfed in their forms and meanings\, to discuss their takes\, to learn\, to disagree. Gather to relax\, make a friend\, drink a coffee\, finish the daily Wordle. Gather to feel full\, to be moved and inspired by all the possible imaginations of what is yet to come.\n \nCurated by Félix Zamora Gómez Irving Stenn\, Jr. Fellow in Public Humanities & Museum Pedagogy\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by Lizzie and Jonathan Tisch\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Office of the Provost.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism
DESCRIPTION:Organized as a response to the Museum’s recent acquisition of Titus Kaphar’s Flay (James Madison)\, this upcoming reinstallation of one of our most prominent gallery spaces forces us to grapple with our collection of European and American art\, 1650-1850.\n \nIn recent times\, growing public awareness of the continued reverberations of the legacy of slavery and colonization has challenged museums to examine the uncomfortable histories contained in our collections\, and challenged the public to probe the choices we make about those stories. Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Michelle Hinojosa: Logcabins
DESCRIPTION:Stamps Gallery commissioned Michelle Hinojosa (MFA\, 2023) to reimagine the pillars on Division Street that flank the Gallery. Hinojosa has created log cabin quilts to adorn the columns in front of Stamps Gallery. The log cabin quilts traditionally represent the warm hearth at the center of a home. This installation reflects on the interplay between home\, placemaking\, labor\, and intergenerational memories of migration. Rather than quilting cotton designed to softly embrace the body\, these quilts are sewn from outdoor grade\, UV-resistant polyester. The quilt is an ode to Hinojosa’s grandmother who illegally crossed the US/Mexico border holding her babies and her quilts. As she and her family drove across the United States to work in the fields of the Salinas Valley\, the quilts offered a safe space for her and her family. Hinojosa celebrates their resilience to her grandmother and elders while also drawing attention to precarity and violence experienced by refugees and migrants crossing the US-Mexico border in our present today.\nArtist’s bio:\nMichelle Inez Hinojosa is an artist\, educator\, and researcher whose work is informed by Indigenous and Latine/x/a/o studies. Born and raised in Texas\, she earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in both drawing and painting and art education with a minor in art history at the University of North Texas. She holds a Master of Fine Arts from the University of Michigan. She works with quilting\, bead weaving\, embroidery\, jewelry\, transparent film installations\, painting\, ceramics\, and sculpture to honor and explore the history of migration in her family and humanize the current discourse around migration still occurring at the southern border. Alongside her artwork she maintains a writing practice to re-story\, re-make\, and re-claim the often subordinated narratives of Latinx\, Chicanx\, Mexican\, and Texican peoples. \n\nRecently\, Hinojosa was named an inaugural Creative Careers Artist in Residence at the University of Michigan\, she has also attended residencies at Mildred's Lane (Pennsylvania)\, Anderson Ranch Art Center (Aspen\, CO) and The Cedars Union (Dallas\, TX).

DESCRIPTION:Join us on World Water Day on a walk to gain perspective and build community. BLUE Missions is dedicated to alleviating the water and sanitation crisis and the Walk for Water is one way in which we are raising awareness for this issue. BLUE will be hosting an event for community members to walk the average distance women and children in the Dominican Republic have to walk daily to collect water. The distance is only 3 kilometers but is often in very mountainous regions and traversed while carrying gallons of water. This journey can take hours out of their day and often conflicts with work and school. Along with our walk\, we will be sharing how we can reduce our water footprint and be more water conscious in everyday life and engaging in fun outdoor activities. We hope to see you there!!

SUMMARY:Film Screening:Film with Live Music: Prokofiev’s Alexander Nevsky
DESCRIPTION:Although known more for his ballet music\, symphonies\, and concertos\, Sergei Prokofiev wrote several film scores: Lieutenant Kijé\, The Queen of Spades\, and his third score\, Alexander Nevsky. The 1938 Soviet historical drama\, directed by Sergei Eisenstein during the Stalinist era\, was the first of his dramatic films to use sound\, and it depicts the attempted invasion of Novgorod in the 13th century by the Knights of the Holy Roman Empire and their subsequent defeat by Prince Alexander\, aka Alexander Nevsky.\n\nThe film and music were a true collaboration in that some of the film was shot to Prokofiev’s music and some of Prokofiev’s music was composed to Eisenstein’s footage. A year after the film’s premiere\, Prokofiev arranged the film score as a cantata\, which is more frequently performed today. The cantata was first performed at UMS at the 1946 May Festival\, less than a decade after its premiere\, and most recently as part of the 1991 May Festival. The UMS Choral Union and the Ann Arbor Symphony Orchestra perform the full score for the first time\, presented alongside the original film.\n\nFeatured Artists bringing the film to life:\nUMS Choral Union\nAnn Arbor Symphony Orchestra\nScott Hanoian\, conductor\nMeredith Arwady\, contralto

SUMMARY:Performance:Martha Wainwright
DESCRIPTION:To celebrate the 20th anniversary of her seminal eponymous debut studio album\, Martha Wainwright announces the 20th Anniversary Tour\, hitting North America in the Spring of 2025. \n\n“20 years ago my life as an artist took shape when my first record was released. In many ways that record defined me\, as well as launched me into a now over 20 year long career that has made me who I am. It was after 10 years of playing in bars\, making cassettes and EPs to sell at my shows\, singing backup for my brother Rufus\, falling in love and out of love and in again\, practicing\, writing\, singing until I could barely sing anymore\, partying\, walking for hours and hours\, crying and laughing with friends\, playing with musicians and listening to great artists working with my ex-husband in the studio for 2 years that created this first record. \n\nLabels wouldn't sign me when I started and I had to craft\, with the help of many people\, an album that would finally be licensed and released in 2005. My first record tells my story and when it was finally released I was able to work and tour and have a career in music - something that I always wanted but wasn't sure would happen. 20 years later\, with 6 other albums under my belt\, 2 kids and a career that is chugging along\, I can safely say that my first record paved my way forward and I'm very proud of it and still sing many of these early songs. \n\nOn March 21st we will release the record on vinyl for the first time ever\, as well as digitally release unheard songs\, outtakes and early material from that 10 year period of discovery that led to my first record. And along with the re-release there will be a tour (with more dates being announced soon)\, with a few great musicians\, where I'll play the record in its entirety as well as a few new songs - there's no 48 year old me without the 28 year old me. \n\nWith love and gratitude\,\nMartha”

SUMMARY:Performance:The Charcuterie Board Show
DESCRIPTION:Charcuterie Board is similar to RCP's Evening of Scenes\, but with a stronger emphasis on serious\, thought-provoking pieces that explore a range of themes. While some scenes are student-written\, the majority are drawn from various forms of media that have inspired our directors and performers\, allowing them to bring compelling narratives to life on stage. Each story performed on stage serves as a unique ingredient on this metaphorical charcuterie board\, offering the audience a carefully curated selection of moments—some sharp with tension\, others rich with emotion\, and some subtly profound. Just like a well-balanced board\, every scene contributes something distinct\, creating an experience that is both diverse and immersive\, leaving the audience with a taste of many different perspectives and storytelling styles.

DESCRIPTION:This digital exhibit in the Shapiro Lobby showcases research about and narratives from people across the globe who are part of mixed race families.\n\nIn 1967\, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in the Loving v. Virginia case that marriage across racial lines was legal throughout the country. Intermarriage has increased steadily since then: one in five U.S. newlyweds (19%) were married to a person of a different race or ethnicity in 2019\, a more than sixfold increase from 3% in 1967 (Pew Research Center\, 2022).

SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Prison\, a Prisoner\, and a Prison Guard
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a multimedia exploration of the impact of prisons on countries and communities across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region through the lens of “prison art.” The exhibit delves into the dynamic interplay between incarceration and creative expression to make sense of carceral systems.\n\nBy presenting prison art from various countries in the MENA region\, including Algeria\, Egypt\, Iran\, Iraq\, Lebanon\, Palestine\, Sudan\, Syria\, and Yemen\, this exhibit unfolds as a “journey” into the prison system and demonstrates the ways in which art can be a tool of expression and reconciliation for survivors\, detainees’ families\, and society at large. It promotes drawing parallels between the prison experience in the region and worldwide\, highlights the intentionality of carceral systems\, and expands the conversation to include prison-impacted communities. Viewers are invited to navigate the cross-generational\, human experiences of imprisonment often obscured behind prison walls and within individuals.\n\nCurated by Sumaya Tabbah and Susan Aboeid of The Ḥafathah Collective\, this traveling exhibit was organized by U-M Students Organize for Syria (SOS) in partnership with U-M Library and with support from the U-M Arts Initiative.\n\nPlan to attend the related discussion\, \"Art\, Justice\, and Carcerality: The Role of Creative Expression in the Pursuit of Justice\,\" on February 6.

DESCRIPTION:The exhibit \"Being Mixed Race in a Mono-racially Organized World: Interracial Identity in the U.S. and Around the World — What Research and Mixed Race People Tell Us\" is an exploration into the library's collections about the diversity of mixed race heritage. Through research\, narratives\, demographic data\, and a variety of visual and published materials\, explore multifaceted aspects of mixed race heritage with insights from many perspectives.\n\nThe 2020 U.S. Census illuminated a 276 percent increase in individuals who identify as \"two or more races\" since 2010. In recognition of the growing numbers of mixed race-identifying people at the University of Michigan\, throughout the country\, and across the globe\, we're excited to unveil this new exhibit — a unique exploration of changing demographics and intersectional identities.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Bibliophile and the Library: Private-Press Books from the Collection of Bill Heidrich
DESCRIPTION:View beautifully illustrated books that stand as remarkable testaments to the work of twentieth-century small private presses\, which\, in contrast to the trend of mass commercialization\, produced limited editions that celebrated the uniqueness of manual craftsmanship. Features such as exquisite typeface design\, letterpress printing\, handmade paper\, traditional illustration techniques like woodcut and engraving\, and the inclusion of original art by renowned artists highlight the presses' dedication to artistry and detail.\n\nThe display opens with an edition of \"The Works of Geoffrey Chaucer\,\" published in 1896 by William Morris at his Kelmscott Press\, a pivotal press that greatly influenced the development of the private press movement as a means of preserving and revitalizing the fine printing and art traditions of the past. Additionally\, the exhibit includes some examples of artist’s proofs\, offering a glimpse into the intricate creative process behind these exceptional works.\n\nThese books are on loan from the collection of Bill Heidrich\, a long-time supporter of the University of Michigan Library.

SUMMARY:Other:Leaves Under the Lens
DESCRIPTION:The leaf surface is a dynamic landscape where tiny\, specialized structures help plants interact with the world around them. Let’s bring this world into view! Join us for an exhibit that highlights the complex and often beautiful anatomy of leaves from the Matthaei collection. Plants throughout the conservatory will be paired with microscope photographs and micro-CT scans that illustrate the otherwise invisible structures that protect leaves from chewing insects\, absorb (or repel!) water\, and even recruit “bodyguards”. You won’t look at leaves the same way again! \n\nThis project is a collaboration between MBGNA and the Weber and Vasconcelos labs in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology\, led by PhD student Rosemary Glos.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Gathering
DESCRIPTION:Welcome. Make Yourself At Home.\n \nA Gathering brings together the newest works of art to enter UMMA’s collection — many on display here for the first time. \n \nAs a free\, public museum\, UMMA staff takes care of art for the benefit of the community and society at large. The works on view in this exhibition\, all brought into the Museum between 2019 and the present\, shows how institutions like UMMA are becoming more permeable to societal challenges\, and more nimble in responding to them in service to all in their communities. In this exhibition you will find works that reflect on how global migrations\, race\, gender\, and ecological change shape the way we engage with the world and inform our visions for the future.\n \nThis collection of artistic engagements with issues give us tools to envision who we want to be as individuals\, as a museum\, and as a society\, connected to one another across space and experience.\n \nSo gather here to take in these latest works of art brought here for you. Gather here to be engulfed in their forms and meanings\, to discuss their takes\, to learn\, to disagree. Gather to relax\, make a friend\, drink a coffee\, finish the daily Wordle. Gather to feel full\, to be moved and inspired by all the possible imaginations of what is yet to come.\n \nCurated by Félix Zamora Gómez Irving Stenn\, Jr. Fellow in Public Humanities & Museum Pedagogy\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by Lizzie and Jonathan Tisch\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Office of the Provost.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism
DESCRIPTION:Organized as a response to the Museum’s recent acquisition of Titus Kaphar’s Flay (James Madison)\, this upcoming reinstallation of one of our most prominent gallery spaces forces us to grapple with our collection of European and American art\, 1650-1850.\n \nIn recent times\, growing public awareness of the continued reverberations of the legacy of slavery and colonization has challenged museums to examine the uncomfortable histories contained in our collections\, and challenged the public to probe the choices we make about those stories. Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n

SUMMARY:Tours:Sunday Drop-In Tour | “I Wonder How They Did That?”
DESCRIPTION:Ever wondered how ancient artifacts were made? A question often asked in the galleries is how the artifacts were created—their shapes\, their colors\, and their designs. This tour will discuss some of the science and engineering involved in crafting these pieces. As we travel through the museum\, we will learn how fine Greek pottery was made\, how (and why) a number of the Egyptian artifacts in the galleries are blue\, and why the Michigan Department of Transportation should perhaps evaluate Roman construction materials for our roads. Join us to uncover the innovative processes of the past.\n\nThis event is free and open to all visitors. If you have any questions or concerns regarding accessing this event\, please visit our accessibility page at https://myumi.ch/zwPkd or contact the education office by calling (734) 647-4167.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:Falasteen on Screen. *Lyd* (2023) Film Screening & Q&A with filmmakers at the State Theatre
DESCRIPTION:Sci-fi Documentary | 1hr 18 min | Rami Younis and Sarah Ema Friedland | 2025 | Filmmaker Q&A to follow after the film with Rami Younis\, Sarah Ema Friedland\, and Mekarem Eljamal\n   \n   This feature-length\, sci-fi documentary shares multiple pasts\, presents\, and futures of the city of Lyd in Palestine/Israel. From the perspective of the city herself\, voiced by Palestinian actress Maisa Abd Elhadi\, the viewer is guided through the lifespan of a five-thousand-year-old city and its residents. Lyd was once a thriving Palestinian city with a rich history. In 636AD\, It was even considered the first capital of Palestine. When the State of Israel was founded in 1948\, Lyd became an Israeli city\, and in the process\, hundreds of Lyd’s Palestinian residents were massacred by Israeli forces\, and most of the city’s 50\,000 Palestinian residents were exiled. Today\, the city has a Jewish Israeli majority and a Palestinian minority and is disinvested and divided by racism and violence. For Palestinians\, Lyd’s story is a painful and tragic fall from grace\, which is why our film dares to ask the question: what would the city be like had the Israeli occupation of Lyd never happened?\n   \n   Using never-before-seen archival footage of the Israeli soldiers who carried out the massacre and expulsion\, the city explains that these events were so devastating that they fractured her reality\, and now there are two Lyds –– one occupied and one free. As the film unfolds\, documentary portions follow a chorus of characters through their daily lives\, creating a tapestry of the Palestinian experience of this city\, and vivid animations use the language of speculative fiction to envision an alternate reality where the same documentary characters live free from the trauma of the past and the violence of the present. As the film cuts between fantastical and documentary realities\, it ultimately leaves the viewer questioning which future should prevail.\n\nThis screening is a part of the Falasteen on Screen Film Festival\, brought to you by Marquee Arts\, Islamic Studies\, Center for Middle Eastern and North African Studies\, Middle East Studies\, Arab and Muslim American Studies\, Department of Anthropology\, Digital Islamic Studies Curriculum\, the International Institute\, Program in International and Comparative Studies\, Department of Film\, Television\, & Media\, Imagine Fitness and Yoga\, Palestine Aid Society of America.\n   \nThe festival highlights the work of Palestinian filmmakers and serves as a platform for educating audiences about the history\, culture\, and experiences of Palestinians. Our goal is to provide a deeper understanding of life under occupation through compelling narratives that span past and present. The festival will take place in person at both the Michigan and State Theaters in Ann Arbor.\n   \n2025 Falasteen on Screen Film Lineup:\nFebruary 17th: Double Feature of Short Films from Gaza: *Ahmad Alive* & *Bisan*\nFebruary 26th: *Life is Beautiful\, A Letter to Gaza*\nMarch 23rd: *Lyd* – Q&A with the filmmaker & U-M alumna\, Mekarem Eljamal\n   \n   More info: https://marquee-arts.org/FILM-SERIES/\n   \n   If there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact islamicstudies@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

Sometimes called the Song of the Night\, two of its five movements are nocturnes. One of them is a folksy sort of night-patrol or march\, and the other a romantic serenade\, complete with guitar and mandolin. The movement between them evokes goblins and spirits in a macabre dance. From these nightwalks and nightsongs\, there are bells and drums and brass fanfares\, as a brightly lit and positive view of the world emerges.  \n\nKenneth Kiesler\, conductor\n\nPROGRAM\nMahler\, Symphony No. 7

SUMMARY:Performance:Newberry & Verch
DESCRIPTION:A seamless blend of Canadian and Ozark/Appalachian styles\n\nGrowing up\, Joe Newberry and April Verch absorbed traditions of home and hearth – in his Missouri Ozarks and her Ottawa Valley of Canada. Although they are on the road much of the year\, the two musicians are fond of saying that they are rarely homesick\, because their music means they always have a bit of home with them wherever they go.\nJoe Newberry comes from a family of singers and dancers. He took up the guitar and banjo as a boy and learned fiddle tunes from great Missouri fiddlers. April Verch grew up listening to her dad’s country band play for dances in the Ottawa Valley. She started step dancing at age three and fiddling at age six. In a Newberry & Verch show\, delighted audiences see first-hand the roots of their music\, their love of performing\, and their strong musical connection. Original songs join timeless classics. Stories warm the heart\, and give audiences a chance to understand where the music comes from.\n\nKnown around the world for his clawhammer banjo playing\, Newberry is also a powerful guitarist\, singer and songwriter. The Gibson Brothers’ version of his song “Singing As We Rise\,” featuring guest vocalist Ricky Skaggs\, won the 2012 IBMA “Gospel Recorded Performance” Award. With Eric Gibson\, he shared the 2013 IBMA “Song of the Year” Award for “They Called It Music.” A longtime guest on A Prairie Home Companion\, he was a featured singer on the Transatlantic Sessions 2016 tour of the U.K.\, and at the Transatlantic Session’s debut at Merlefest in 2017. \n\nBefore launching her professional career\, Verch was the first woman to win both the Canadian Grand Masters and Canadian Open Fiddling Championships. In 2000\, she formed “The April Verch Band\,” and together they have toured the world\, performing in 18 different countries. She has released 14 solo recordings to date\, receiving JUNO\, Canadian Folk Music and Independent Music nominations and awards for several of those releases. Verch was one of 6 fiddlers who represented the Canadian fiddle tradition to the world at the 2010 Olympic Winter Games in Vancouver\, as part of a segment called “Fiddle Nation” featured in the Opening Ceremonies.\n\nWhether it is the power of two voices lifted in harmony\, or the sound of traditional tunes calling people to get up and move\, these two masters of tradition put on an unforgettable show. And\, when their feet kick up the dust in perfect rhythm and those two voices become one\, Joe Newberry and April Verch make folks remember why this music existed in the first place.

DESCRIPTION:This digital exhibit in the Shapiro Lobby showcases research about and narratives from people across the globe who are part of mixed race families.\n\nIn 1967\, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in the Loving v. Virginia case that marriage across racial lines was legal throughout the country. Intermarriage has increased steadily since then: one in five U.S. newlyweds (19%) were married to a person of a different race or ethnicity in 2019\, a more than sixfold increase from 3% in 1967 (Pew Research Center\, 2022).

SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Prison\, a Prisoner\, and a Prison Guard
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a multimedia exploration of the impact of prisons on countries and communities across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region through the lens of “prison art.” The exhibit delves into the dynamic interplay between incarceration and creative expression to make sense of carceral systems.\n\nBy presenting prison art from various countries in the MENA region\, including Algeria\, Egypt\, Iran\, Iraq\, Lebanon\, Palestine\, Sudan\, Syria\, and Yemen\, this exhibit unfolds as a “journey” into the prison system and demonstrates the ways in which art can be a tool of expression and reconciliation for survivors\, detainees’ families\, and society at large. It promotes drawing parallels between the prison experience in the region and worldwide\, highlights the intentionality of carceral systems\, and expands the conversation to include prison-impacted communities. Viewers are invited to navigate the cross-generational\, human experiences of imprisonment often obscured behind prison walls and within individuals.\n\nCurated by Sumaya Tabbah and Susan Aboeid of The Ḥafathah Collective\, this traveling exhibit was organized by U-M Students Organize for Syria (SOS) in partnership with U-M Library and with support from the U-M Arts Initiative.\n\nPlan to attend the related discussion\, \"Art\, Justice\, and Carcerality: The Role of Creative Expression in the Pursuit of Justice\,\" on February 6.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Being Mixed Race in a Mono-racially Organized World
DESCRIPTION:The exhibit \"Being Mixed Race in a Mono-racially Organized World: Interracial Identity in the U.S. and Around the World — What Research and Mixed Race People Tell Us\" is an exploration into the library's collections about the diversity of mixed race heritage. Through research\, narratives\, demographic data\, and a variety of visual and published materials\, explore multifaceted aspects of mixed race heritage with insights from many perspectives.\n\nThe 2020 U.S. Census illuminated a 276 percent increase in individuals who identify as \"two or more races\" since 2010. In recognition of the growing numbers of mixed race-identifying people at the University of Michigan\, throughout the country\, and across the globe\, we're excited to unveil this new exhibit — a unique exploration of changing demographics and intersectional identities.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:CREES Exhibition. Threading the Needle: Vestiges of Colonialism and Femininity\, an installation by Gluklya
DESCRIPTION:Gluklya’s work is a powerful example of socially engaged art at the intersections of gender\, class\, and cultural identity. By focusing on experiences of female textile workers in Kyrgyzstan\, the artist explores the often-overlooked stories of women affected by Soviet and post-Soviet colonialism. \"Threading the Needle: Vestiges of Colonialism and Femininity\" retells their stories using a diverse range of media — film\, sculpture\, watercolors\, and felt tapestries. Unfolding the implications of economic and societal pressures on women\, Gluklya explores issues of poverty\, isolation\, and exploitation among the garment workers.\n   \n   Personal stories are woven into a broader social context — such as the legacy of the \"Likbez\" (liquidation of illiteracy) campaign among women in Central Asia during Soviet rule and entrenched patriarchal traditions\, like \"Ala Kachuu\" (bride-kidnapping). This dynamic — where colonization and modernization intertwine the individual lives they touch — raises questions about cultural identity and the ethical borders of decolonized research.\n\nThis exhibition was curated by CREES alumna Dianne Beal (BA REES '79). See more of her work here: https://www.diannebeal.com/curatorial.\n   \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at crees@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Andy Ross Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:The pieces here are from a large series of works made over the last several years. In them\, Ross explores humor and personal meaning through absurd juxtapositions of pairs of wildly varied images. Each single image is stripped of its original context (be it\, for example\, a history book\, an instruction manual\, or a magazine advertisement)\, placed on a white background like some kind of specimen\, and presented afresh with a new “companion image.” These companion images confront\, contrast and converse with each other\, and thereby build new relationships\, narratives\, jokes\, and contexts.\n\nAndy Ross grew up in Macomb County\, and has been making art in various mediums since the 1970s. He received a BFA degree from College for Creative Studies\, and an MFA degree from University of Michigan. He has taught photography\, art\, and web design at colleges in California and Michigan. His photographs and collages have been exhibited in schools\, galleries\, and museums across the United States.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Angkorian Homecoming
DESCRIPTION:Informed by her experience as a refugee\, Phung Huynh’s projects explore the complexities of displacement\, assimilation\, and cultural negotiation among Cambodian and Vietnamese refugees who have resettled in the United States. She creates detailed graphite portraits on pink donut boxes to highlight the stories of Southeast Asians who have survived war trauma and genocide. Huynh’s serigraph prints about Donut Kids foreground intergenerational gaps as well as bridging the refugee parent and American child through the narratives of Cambodian American children who were raised by donut shop owners in California. Huynh’s most recent work of drawings of Cambodian Buddhist statue heads and photographic prints of decapitated statue bodies on fabric addresses the repatriation of looted Cambodian antiquities in the context of challenging the legacy of colonialism\, unethical museum practices\, and the refugee’s desire to return home.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Elizabeth Boyd-Hartmann Dizik Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:This body of work represents a playful exploration of form\, color\, and scale through the lens of cellular shapes. Inspired by the complex patterns of biological life\, the pieces are a celebration of growth\, transformation\, and the joy of experimentation. The use of non-precious materials\, such as wood balls and paint\, allowed for a liberating approach to composition and color\, while the spherical forms and circular panels evoke the look of petri dishes—symbolizing both scientific curiosity and organic development.\nBorn in Detroit\, Elizabeth is a multidisciplinary artist and mother based in the metro Detroit area\, where she works from a studio in her home. With a background in bench jewelry\, her earlier work focused on studio jewelry and was represented by Galerie Noel Guyomarc’h in Montreal.\nElizabeth’s work has been exhibited both locally and internationally. She holds a BA in Jewelry Design\, with First Class Honours\, from Central Saint Martins in London\, a BFA from the University of Michigan\, and an MFA from Cranbrook Academy of Art\, where she specialized in Metalsmithing and Architecture. Her diverse practice spans jewelry\, sculpture\, and installation\, blending materials and techniques to explore themes of production\, growth\, transformation\, and organic form.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Redefining the Crown
DESCRIPTION:In Winter 2025\, the Lane Hall exhibit space will feature a portraiture series titled Redefining the Crown showcasing the powerful stories of six Black breast cancer survivors.\n\nBased on a photo essay by U-M Faculty Versha Pleasant (MD/MPH) and Ava Purkiss (PhD) in Medicine at Michigan\, this exhibition examines the cultural and personal significance of hair within Black communities\, particularly through the lens of breast cancer treatment and recovery. The term \"crown\" is deeply symbolic in Black culture\, signifying beauty\, strength\, and identity. The featured photo essay by photographer Tafari Stevenson-Howard captures the intimate journeys of Ann Chatman\, Tanisha Kennedy\, Felecia McDaniel\, Shantell Elaine McCoy\, Tamara Lynn Myles\, and Veleria Banks.\n\nThrough their narratives and portraits\, the exhibit examines how these women have navigated the profound impact of hair loss caused by chemotherapy\, inviting the audience to witness their stories with radical empathy. It explores the cultural pride and personal identity intricately tied to their hair\, and how these elements are redefined amidst their battles with breast cancer.\n\nThe exhibit will be on view from January 21\, 2025 to August 8\, 2025. This exhibition is presented with support from IRWG\, the Department of Women's and Gender Studies\, and Michigan Medicine. \n\nLocated on the first floor of Lane Hall (204 S. State Street)\, the Exhibit Space is free and open to the public\, M-F\, 9am-4pm.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Bibliophile and the Library: Private-Press Books from the Collection of Bill Heidrich
DESCRIPTION:View beautifully illustrated books that stand as remarkable testaments to the work of twentieth-century small private presses\, which\, in contrast to the trend of mass commercialization\, produced limited editions that celebrated the uniqueness of manual craftsmanship. Features such as exquisite typeface design\, letterpress printing\, handmade paper\, traditional illustration techniques like woodcut and engraving\, and the inclusion of original art by renowned artists highlight the presses' dedication to artistry and detail.\n\nThe display opens with an edition of \"The Works of Geoffrey Chaucer\,\" published in 1896 by William Morris at his Kelmscott Press\, a pivotal press that greatly influenced the development of the private press movement as a means of preserving and revitalizing the fine printing and art traditions of the past. Additionally\, the exhibit includes some examples of artist’s proofs\, offering a glimpse into the intricate creative process behind these exceptional works.\n\nThese books are on loan from the collection of Bill Heidrich\, a long-time supporter of the University of Michigan Library.

DESCRIPTION:The leaf surface is a dynamic landscape where tiny\, specialized structures help plants interact with the world around them. Let’s bring this world into view! Join us for an exhibit that highlights the complex and often beautiful anatomy of leaves from the Matthaei collection. Plants throughout the conservatory will be paired with microscope photographs and micro-CT scans that illustrate the otherwise invisible structures that protect leaves from chewing insects\, absorb (or repel!) water\, and even recruit “bodyguards”. You won’t look at leaves the same way again! \n\nThis project is a collaboration between MBGNA and the Weber and Vasconcelos labs in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology\, led by PhD student Rosemary Glos.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Larry Cat In Space
DESCRIPTION:Intended for young children\, Larry Cat In Space is a playful\, imaginative cartoon presentation about an inquisitive cat who takes a trip to the Moon. Through Larry's eyes\, we observe his human family\, and his owner Diana. Larry hides in Diana’s suitcase as she travels to her job on the Moon and experiences weightlessness. Once on the Moon\, Larry observes how the Earth looks a lot like the Moon did from his porch back home.\n\nThe state-of-the-art Planetarium & Dome Theater at the U-M Museum of Natural History transports visitors beyond distant stars and back in time from the comfort of reclining seats.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:29th Annual Exhibition of Artists in Michigan Prisons
DESCRIPTION:The *29th Annual Exhibition of Artists in Michigan Prisons* showcases the life-affirming creative work of artists from 26 Michigan prisons.\n \nHundreds of original\, handmade works by incarcerated artists in Michigan will be displayed in the Duderstadt Center Gallery from March 18th through April 1st\, 2025. A variety of visual arts media will be featured\, including paintings\, portraits\, tattoo imagery\, landscapes\, sculpture\, fiber arts\, and more.\n\nThe *Annual Exhibition* is the largest and longest-running art show of its kind in the world. The artwork featured in the exhibit is a testament to the resilience of artists and the life-giving power of art under the most difficult of circumstances – incarceration\, isolation\, and unimaginable loss. It is an important reminder of the connections that sustain us all\, both in the free world and behind the walls.\n\nWe invite you to enjoy these unparalleled works of art and\, if you like\, make a purchase. All proceeds\, minus necessary taxes and fees\, go directly to the artists. Original pieces are available at a wide variety of price points for all budgets.\n\nThe exhibition opens March 18th:\n5 PM Gallery opens and sales begin\n6:30PM Reception & light refreshments\n7PM Celebration program begins\n9PM Gallery closes\n\nFree accessible shuttle service available on opening night:\n4:30 - 8:30 PM\, running every half-hour\nLoops to the exhibit from the Plymouth Rd.

SUMMARY:Performance:Adam Lenhart\, carillon
DESCRIPTION:Undergraduate student Adam Lenhart performs on the Charles Baird Carillon\, an instrument of 53 bronze bells located inside the Burton Memorial Tower. The largest bell\, which strikes the hour\, weighs 12 tons\, while the smallest bell\, 4½ octaves above\, weighs just 15 pounds. As part of Lenhart’s American Women Concert Series\, this recital program celebrates the life\, legacy & music of Aretha Franklin (1942-2018).\n\nThirty-minute recitals are performed on the Charles Baird Carillon at noon every weekday that classes are in session\, followed by visitor Q&A with the carillonist. The bell chamber may be accessed via a combination of elevator and stairs. Take the elevator to the highest floor possible (floor 8)\, and then climb two flights of stairs (39 steps) to the bell chamber (floor 10). Hearing protection earmuffs are provided for visitors. Be prepared to walk on ice and snow in the bell chamber during winter. Built in 1936\, the Charles Baird Carillon is not ADA accessible. Visitors with mobility concerns are invited to visit the Lurie Carillon.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:More than Gray: Reimagining Early America in Full Color
DESCRIPTION:The American past was lived in full color\, but this vibrant history can be easily missed in surviving evidence. You can’t deny that there’s something about a black-and-white photograph that feels… stuffy. With portraits showing people with their shirts buttoned right to the neck and everything in shades of gray and brown\, our imaginations can incline to thinking of the past as a bit staid\, if not downright dull. But look a little closer\, and you’ll see signs that the fashion choices available to those who came before us were more colorful than you might first think. From the fabrics they wore\, to the games they played\, or the books they read\, their world was alive with bright hues. This exhibit invites you to reimagine history with a fuller color palette and picture the vibrancy and joy that just might be hidden behind the unsmiling photographs.\n\nExhibition opening weekdays from 12-4.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Dissertation Defense: Trapped Surface Formation in General Relativity and Double Null Foliations
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nThis dissertation deals primarily with two main subjects within the field of mathematical general relativity (GR). Mathematical GR is the study of gravitation through analysis of the Einstein equations\, which link the matter content of our universe to its geometry. It uses techniques from geometric analysis and nonlinear partial differential equations (PDE) in order to prove rigorous mathematical theorems that answer questions from physics. The first subject in this dissertation is linear first order hyperbolic systems of PDE in a double null foliation. The second is the formation of trapped surfaces in general relativity. Prior to these\, we provide a brief introduction to the main ideas of mathematical general relativity which are featured in this thesis.\n\nA double null foliation is a particular type of foliation of spacetime which is well-suited to the study of gravitational radiation. Gravitational waves propagate along the hypersurfaces defined by a double null foliation. The Bianchi identities for the Riemann curvature of a vacuum spacetime exhibit a hyperbolic structure which has been used to obtain detailed nonlinear estimates on the null curvature components. In the first main work of this dissertation\, we introduce the notion of a double null hyperbolic system of equations and prove a global existence and uniqueness theorem for these systems. We then discuss the relationship between these systems and the Bianchi equations. We also derive a novel algebraic constraint which must be satisfied\, at every point in the spacetime\, by tensor fields satisfying the linearized Bianchi equations (the linearized Bianchi equations are obtained from the usual Bianchi equations by replacing the null Weyl tensor components with unknown tensorfields). This work has potential applications in the study of gravitational waves\, as well as in any system where the null structure is paramount\, such as Einstein-null dust\, Einstein-massless Vlasov\, or Einstein-Maxwell.\n\nIn the second main work of this dissertation\, which is based on joint work with Lydia Bieri\, Neel Patel\, and Pengyu Le\, we prove a trapped surface formation result for a certain class of null dust spacetimes\, extending the seminal work of Christodoulou. This result extends to past null infinity. We show that if the incoming energy due to gravitation or null dust radiation is sufficiently large\, then a trapped surface will form. In particular\, we show that a trapped surface can form solely due to the concentration of null dust radiation\, in the absence of any gravitational energy. Trapped surfaces are closely related to black holes\; a spacetime which contains a closed trapped surface and a complete future null infinity necessarily contains a black hole\, with the trapped surface inside. The initial data constructed in this work is in the large data regime\, is quite general\, and can be arbitrarily far from already containing a trapped surface. New ideas are needed and developed to analyze the matter introduced in this work.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:\"Nature Big Picture\" Workshop
DESCRIPTION:There are many different perspectives and visions for Detroit’s past\, present\, and future. Some of these perspectives have focused on the idea of emptiness and vacancy\, depicting space as lacking connections or relationships. By portraying places as “empty”\, we risk overlooking the care\, relationships\, and connections that already exist in these places. In our collaborative mapping workshop\, happening on March 24th from 3-5pm at the UM Detroit Center\, we aim to tell a different story: Detroit is not empty. By co-developing maps that visualize networks of people\, nature\, and their relationships\, we will identify the many ways in which care and connection are happening. We will together reflect on what this collective “big picture” of nature might mobilize for Detroit’s communities. The maps and networks that we create during the workshop will be shared with all participants and we hope the workshop can spark conversations over drinks and snacks\, uncover new collaboration opportunities\, and offer fresh perspectives on landscapes in Detroit.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:“What Is Poetry?”
DESCRIPTION:Lecture and Conversation\n\n3222 Angell Hall\n\nRSVP here: https://sessions.studentlife.umich.edu/login?r=/track/event/session/88784\n\nWhat is poetry? You probably have some idea\, or at least you know it when you see it.  You probably also know that this is a trick question.  In practice\, it’s not hard to know a poem when you see one: it appears in lines or it rhymes or it’s called poetry even if it looks like prose.  In theory\, everyone knows you are not supposed to answer the question.  This talk will address the relation between determinate practice and indeterminate theory in modern (post-eighteenth-century) Anglo-American poetics.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:RCGD Seminar Series: Donte Bernard
DESCRIPTION:Racial discrimination continues to have profound and lasting effects on the mental health of Black individuals. Perseverative coping or the chronic and continuous contemplation about symptoms\, causes\, and consequences of distress represents an important\, yet under-explored mechanism that may explain and exacerbate the deleterious consequences of racial discrimination. Drawing from recent and forthcoming work from Dr. Bernard\, this presentation will highlight how perseverative coping can influence the discrimination-mental health link among Black youth and emerging adults. Additionally\, this presentation will discuss the value of considering perseverative coping as a culturally relevant\, malleable intervention target that can reduce negative mental health sequalae in the aftermath of racism-related experiences.\n\nDr. Donte Bernard’s program of research examines the direct and indirect pathways by which racism compromises the mental and behavioral health and well-being of Black children\, adolescents\, and emerging adults. Anchored by cultural ecological models recognizing the importance of risk and resilience at the individual and contextual level\, his research leverages both quantitative and qualitative methods to identify how Black youth identify\, cope with\, and navigate racism-related experiences across sensitive developmental periods. Ultimately\, the goal of his research is to eliminate racial disparities in mental and behavioral health through informing policy and intervention development targeting the reduction of racism and its related health consequences.\n\nMyles Durkee hosts.\n\nThe Winter 2025 RCGD Seminar Series will feature speakers invited and hosted by faculty affiliated with the Research Center for Group Dynamics. These multidisciplinary talks will cover a variety of topics in social science\, including social cognition\, structural racism\, romantic relationships\, and cognitive health. Check the schedule for updates to this series that will convene on select Mondays at 3:30 at the Institute for Social Research.\n\nThese events are held Mondays from 3:30 to 5.\nIn person: ISR Thompson 1430\, unless otherwise specified.\nAs permissions allow\, seminars are later posted to our YouTube playlist.\n\nThe Group Dynamics Seminar series is considered one of the longest running seminar series in the social sciences. It has been running uninterruptedly since it was founded by Kurt Lewin in the 1920’s in Berlin. The seminar series runs every semester on a theme chosen by faculty organizer/s who are affiliated with the Research Center for Group Dynamics at the Institute for Social Research. A very important feature of this seminar today is its interdisciplinary nature. Recent themes have included political polarization\, evolution and human behavior\, and cultural psychology.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Edge-Kempe equivalence classes of 3-regular graphs
DESCRIPTION:In his proposed proof of the Four Color Theorem in 1879\, Alfred Bray Kempe introduced an operation on edge colorings of a graph which is now known as an edge-Kempe switch. An edge-Kempe switch swaps the two colors on a maximal two-color chain of edges\, and these moves partition the edge colorings of a graph into edge-Kempe equivalence classes. Ruth Haas and sarah-marie belcastro proved that a 3-regular\, 3-edge-colored\, planar\, bipartite graph has one edge-Kempe equivalence class. In this talk\, we will discuss that proof and speculate on its applications to webs. We will also count the edge-Kempe equivalence classes of some nonplanar\, bipartite\, 3-regular graphs.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:GLNT: Ramification bounds via Wach modules and q-crystalline cohomology
DESCRIPTION:Given a Galois representation T obtained as the mod p etale cohomology of a smooth proper variety with good reduction over a p-adic field K\, Breuil-Kisin cohomology can be used to obtain a bound on ramification of T. Under the assumption that K is absolutely unramified\, I will describe an alternative approach to obtaining such a bound using Wach modules and q–crystalline cohomology. The resulting bound is stronger than the one obtained via Breuil-Kisin theory\, and in particular\, it is able to distinguish the good reduction case from the more general case of semistable reduction.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:MEMS Lecture Series | Sacred and Profane: Andean Guacas and Colonial Extractions\, 1569-1636
DESCRIPTION:In 1569\, Mari Flores\, Hernán García\, Blas García\, and Juan Vallejo filed and received permission to start a mining company outside of Potosí\, Bolivia\, the world's silver capital. Unlike other articles of incorporation submitted by sixteenth-century Spanish subjects\, their company was time-bound\, authorized for six years\, focused on extracting the sacred guaca (living site of offerings) of Manducalla. Each investor was identified in a different way\, as an index of their race\, gender\, and artisan status: Hernán Garcia\, of African descent (\"mulato\")\; Mari Flores\, \"his wife\" (\"su muger\")\; Blas García\, of Indigenous ancestry (\"mestizo\")\; and Juan Vallejo\, chairmaker (\"sillero\"). In this talk\, I compare the terms of the 1569 contract with a similar proposal awarded in 1636 by Spanish colonial officials\, treasurers Pedro de Sanabria and Juan de los Reyes\, \"discoverers and knowers\" of a guaca whose rights of extraction they seek to award to Father Pedro Garrido. Unlike the earlier example\, this case dragged on for nearly 20 years. By looking at the legal language of possession\, discovery\, and extraction in the two cases\, this talk examines how race and gender intersected with state-sanctioned sacred and technical knowledge from the late sixteenth-century into the mid-seventeenth century.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:WCEE Distinguished lecture. Russia Beyond Putin
DESCRIPTION:Doors open to the public at 4:30 p.m. Seating will be limited and on a first-come\, first served basis.\n\nKremlin propaganda wants the world to believe that all Russians support Vladimir Putin and his war of aggression in Ukraine. But the reality is very different: beyond the Putin regime\, and despite its breathtaking repression\, many Russians believe in a very different—hopeful\, peaceful\, democratic—future for their country. In this lecture\, Vladimir Kara-Murza\, a Russian opposition politician\, author\, historian\, and former political prisoner who was freed as part of a large-scale East-West prisoner exchange in August 2024\, will speak about the opposition\, the state of human rights\, and the struggle for democracy in Putin’s Russia.\n\n   Vladimir Kara-Murza is a Russian politician\, author\, historian\, and former political prisoner. A close colleague of the slain opposition leader Boris Nemtsov\, he has served as deputy leader of the People’s Freedom Party and was a candidate for the Russian Parliament. Leading diplomatic efforts on behalf of the opposition\, Kara-Murza played a key role in the adoption of Magnitsky sanctions against top Russian officials by the United States\, United Kingdom\, European Union\, Canada\, and Australia. For this work he was twice poisoned and left in a coma\; a joint media investigation by *Bellingcat*\, *The Insider*\, and *Der Spiegel* has identified FSB officers behind the attacks. In April 2022\, Kara-Murza was arrested in Moscow for publicly denouncing the invasion of Ukraine and the war crimes committed by Russian forces. Following a closed-door trial at the Moscow City Court\, he was sentenced to 25 years for “high treason” and kept in solitary confinement at a maximum-security prison in Siberia. He was released in August 2024 as part of the largest East-West prisoner exchange since the Cold War negotiated by the U.S. and German governments.\n\nKara-Murza is a contributing writer at *The Washington Post*\, winning the 2024 Pulitzer Prize for his columns written from prison\, and has previously worked for Echo of Moscow\, BBC\, RTVi\, *Kommersant*\, *World Affairs*\, and other media organizations. He currently serves as vice-president at the Free Russia Foundation\, as senior advisor at Human Rights First\, and as senior fellow at the Raoul Wallenberg Centre for Human Rights. He was the founding chairman of the Boris Nemtsov Foundation for Freedom and has led successful international efforts to commemorate Nemtsov\, including with street designations in Washington D.C. and London. Kara-Murza is a recipient of several awards\, including the Council of Europe’s Václav Havel Human Rights Prize\, and is an honorary fellow at Trinity Hall\, Cambridge.\n   \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Multiracial Families: Increasing Rapidly
DESCRIPTION:This digital exhibit in the Shapiro Lobby showcases research about and narratives from people across the globe who are part of mixed race families.\n\nIn 1967\, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in the Loving v. Virginia case that marriage across racial lines was legal throughout the country. Intermarriage has increased steadily since then: one in five U.S. newlyweds (19%) were married to a person of a different race or ethnicity in 2019\, a more than sixfold increase from 3% in 1967 (Pew Research Center\, 2022).

SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Prison\, a Prisoner\, and a Prison Guard
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a multimedia exploration of the impact of prisons on countries and communities across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region through the lens of “prison art.” The exhibit delves into the dynamic interplay between incarceration and creative expression to make sense of carceral systems.\n\nBy presenting prison art from various countries in the MENA region\, including Algeria\, Egypt\, Iran\, Iraq\, Lebanon\, Palestine\, Sudan\, Syria\, and Yemen\, this exhibit unfolds as a “journey” into the prison system and demonstrates the ways in which art can be a tool of expression and reconciliation for survivors\, detainees’ families\, and society at large. It promotes drawing parallels between the prison experience in the region and worldwide\, highlights the intentionality of carceral systems\, and expands the conversation to include prison-impacted communities. Viewers are invited to navigate the cross-generational\, human experiences of imprisonment often obscured behind prison walls and within individuals.\n\nCurated by Sumaya Tabbah and Susan Aboeid of The Ḥafathah Collective\, this traveling exhibit was organized by U-M Students Organize for Syria (SOS) in partnership with U-M Library and with support from the U-M Arts Initiative.\n\nPlan to attend the related discussion\, \"Art\, Justice\, and Carcerality: The Role of Creative Expression in the Pursuit of Justice\,\" on February 6.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Being Mixed Race in a Mono-racially Organized World
DESCRIPTION:The exhibit \"Being Mixed Race in a Mono-racially Organized World: Interracial Identity in the U.S. and Around the World — What Research and Mixed Race People Tell Us\" is an exploration into the library's collections about the diversity of mixed race heritage. Through research\, narratives\, demographic data\, and a variety of visual and published materials\, explore multifaceted aspects of mixed race heritage with insights from many perspectives.\n\nThe 2020 U.S. Census illuminated a 276 percent increase in individuals who identify as \"two or more races\" since 2010. In recognition of the growing numbers of mixed race-identifying people at the University of Michigan\, throughout the country\, and across the globe\, we're excited to unveil this new exhibit — a unique exploration of changing demographics and intersectional identities.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:CREES Exhibition. Threading the Needle: Vestiges of Colonialism and Femininity\, an installation by Gluklya
DESCRIPTION:Gluklya’s work is a powerful example of socially engaged art at the intersections of gender\, class\, and cultural identity. By focusing on experiences of female textile workers in Kyrgyzstan\, the artist explores the often-overlooked stories of women affected by Soviet and post-Soviet colonialism. \"Threading the Needle: Vestiges of Colonialism and Femininity\" retells their stories using a diverse range of media — film\, sculpture\, watercolors\, and felt tapestries. Unfolding the implications of economic and societal pressures on women\, Gluklya explores issues of poverty\, isolation\, and exploitation among the garment workers.\n   \n   Personal stories are woven into a broader social context — such as the legacy of the \"Likbez\" (liquidation of illiteracy) campaign among women in Central Asia during Soviet rule and entrenched patriarchal traditions\, like \"Ala Kachuu\" (bride-kidnapping). This dynamic — where colonization and modernization intertwine the individual lives they touch — raises questions about cultural identity and the ethical borders of decolonized research.\n\nThis exhibition was curated by CREES alumna Dianne Beal (BA REES '79). See more of her work here: https://www.diannebeal.com/curatorial.\n   \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at crees@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Andy Ross Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:The pieces here are from a large series of works made over the last several years. In them\, Ross explores humor and personal meaning through absurd juxtapositions of pairs of wildly varied images. Each single image is stripped of its original context (be it\, for example\, a history book\, an instruction manual\, or a magazine advertisement)\, placed on a white background like some kind of specimen\, and presented afresh with a new “companion image.” These companion images confront\, contrast and converse with each other\, and thereby build new relationships\, narratives\, jokes\, and contexts.\n\nAndy Ross grew up in Macomb County\, and has been making art in various mediums since the 1970s. He received a BFA degree from College for Creative Studies\, and an MFA degree from University of Michigan. He has taught photography\, art\, and web design at colleges in California and Michigan. His photographs and collages have been exhibited in schools\, galleries\, and museums across the United States.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Angkorian Homecoming
DESCRIPTION:Informed by her experience as a refugee\, Phung Huynh’s projects explore the complexities of displacement\, assimilation\, and cultural negotiation among Cambodian and Vietnamese refugees who have resettled in the United States. She creates detailed graphite portraits on pink donut boxes to highlight the stories of Southeast Asians who have survived war trauma and genocide. Huynh’s serigraph prints about Donut Kids foreground intergenerational gaps as well as bridging the refugee parent and American child through the narratives of Cambodian American children who were raised by donut shop owners in California. Huynh’s most recent work of drawings of Cambodian Buddhist statue heads and photographic prints of decapitated statue bodies on fabric addresses the repatriation of looted Cambodian antiquities in the context of challenging the legacy of colonialism\, unethical museum practices\, and the refugee’s desire to return home.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Elizabeth Boyd-Hartmann Dizik Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:This body of work represents a playful exploration of form\, color\, and scale through the lens of cellular shapes. Inspired by the complex patterns of biological life\, the pieces are a celebration of growth\, transformation\, and the joy of experimentation. The use of non-precious materials\, such as wood balls and paint\, allowed for a liberating approach to composition and color\, while the spherical forms and circular panels evoke the look of petri dishes—symbolizing both scientific curiosity and organic development.\nBorn in Detroit\, Elizabeth is a multidisciplinary artist and mother based in the metro Detroit area\, where she works from a studio in her home. With a background in bench jewelry\, her earlier work focused on studio jewelry and was represented by Galerie Noel Guyomarc’h in Montreal.\nElizabeth’s work has been exhibited both locally and internationally. She holds a BA in Jewelry Design\, with First Class Honours\, from Central Saint Martins in London\, a BFA from the University of Michigan\, and an MFA from Cranbrook Academy of Art\, where she specialized in Metalsmithing and Architecture. Her diverse practice spans jewelry\, sculpture\, and installation\, blending materials and techniques to explore themes of production\, growth\, transformation\, and organic form.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Redefining the Crown
DESCRIPTION:In Winter 2025\, the Lane Hall exhibit space will feature a portraiture series titled Redefining the Crown showcasing the powerful stories of six Black breast cancer survivors.\n\nBased on a photo essay by U-M Faculty Versha Pleasant (MD/MPH) and Ava Purkiss (PhD) in Medicine at Michigan\, this exhibition examines the cultural and personal significance of hair within Black communities\, particularly through the lens of breast cancer treatment and recovery. The term \"crown\" is deeply symbolic in Black culture\, signifying beauty\, strength\, and identity. The featured photo essay by photographer Tafari Stevenson-Howard captures the intimate journeys of Ann Chatman\, Tanisha Kennedy\, Felecia McDaniel\, Shantell Elaine McCoy\, Tamara Lynn Myles\, and Veleria Banks.\n\nThrough their narratives and portraits\, the exhibit examines how these women have navigated the profound impact of hair loss caused by chemotherapy\, inviting the audience to witness their stories with radical empathy. It explores the cultural pride and personal identity intricately tied to their hair\, and how these elements are redefined amidst their battles with breast cancer.\n\nThe exhibit will be on view from January 21\, 2025 to August 8\, 2025. This exhibition is presented with support from IRWG\, the Department of Women's and Gender Studies\, and Michigan Medicine. \n\nLocated on the first floor of Lane Hall (204 S. State Street)\, the Exhibit Space is free and open to the public\, M-F\, 9am-4pm.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Bibliophile and the Library: Private-Press Books from the Collection of Bill Heidrich
DESCRIPTION:View beautifully illustrated books that stand as remarkable testaments to the work of twentieth-century small private presses\, which\, in contrast to the trend of mass commercialization\, produced limited editions that celebrated the uniqueness of manual craftsmanship. Features such as exquisite typeface design\, letterpress printing\, handmade paper\, traditional illustration techniques like woodcut and engraving\, and the inclusion of original art by renowned artists highlight the presses' dedication to artistry and detail.\n\nThe display opens with an edition of \"The Works of Geoffrey Chaucer\,\" published in 1896 by William Morris at his Kelmscott Press\, a pivotal press that greatly influenced the development of the private press movement as a means of preserving and revitalizing the fine printing and art traditions of the past. Additionally\, the exhibit includes some examples of artist’s proofs\, offering a glimpse into the intricate creative process behind these exceptional works.\n\nThese books are on loan from the collection of Bill Heidrich\, a long-time supporter of the University of Michigan Library.

SUMMARY:Other:Leaves Under the Lens
DESCRIPTION:The leaf surface is a dynamic landscape where tiny\, specialized structures help plants interact with the world around them. Let’s bring this world into view! Join us for an exhibit that highlights the complex and often beautiful anatomy of leaves from the Matthaei collection. Plants throughout the conservatory will be paired with microscope photographs and micro-CT scans that illustrate the otherwise invisible structures that protect leaves from chewing insects\, absorb (or repel!) water\, and even recruit “bodyguards”. You won’t look at leaves the same way again! \n\nThis project is a collaboration between MBGNA and the Weber and Vasconcelos labs in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology\, led by PhD student Rosemary Glos.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Optimization-based Robot Control on Matrix Lie Groups
DESCRIPTION:Co-chairs: Maani Ghaffari\, Ram Vasudevan\n\nAbstract:\nLie groups serve as a powerful mathematical framework for modeling the kinematics and dynamics of robotic systems composed of 3D rigid bodies. However\, the nonlinear nature of rigid body motion introduces significant challenges\, making problems such as motion planning\, feedback control\, and state estimation inherently nonconvex and difficult to solve.\n \nIn this thesis\, I first present a unified modeling framework based on matrix Lie groups\, which captures the rich algebraic and geometric structures of rigid body systems to enable systematic analysis and computation. Building on this foundation\, I exploit the underlying polynomial structures of matrix Lie groups to develop globally optimal and certifiable solutions to these robotics problems via convex optimization. Notably\, I address the kinodynamic motion planning problem — ensuring both kinematic and dynamic feasibility — for 3D rigid body systems with global optimality guarantees. I then introduce the Generalized Moment Kalman Filter\, a novel extension of Kalman filtering theory from linear Gaussian systems to nonlinear polynomial systems with arbitrary noise distributions. This generalization enables more robust and accurate state estimation in complex robotic systems. Finally\, I leverage the geometric properties of matrix Lie groups to design efficient local gradient-based solvers tailored for rigid body systems. In particular\, I present the Riemannian Direct Trajectory Optimization framework\, which ensures geometric compatibility while enabling fast and efficient motion planning.\n \nTogether\, these contributions provide a comprehensive set of tools for certifiable\, efficient\, and geometrically consistent motion planning and state estimation in rigid body robotic systems.\n\n1000 Robotics Atrium\,\nhttps://umich.zoom.us/j/98764011774 \nMeeting ID: 987 6401 1774 \nPasscode: 83112

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:“Schedule Volatility in Hourly Service Work: Evidence and Implications for Federal Income-Support Policies”
DESCRIPTION:Join the Stone Center for Inequality Dynamics as Elizabeth Ananat\, Mallya Professor of Women and Economics\, Barnard College\, presents\, “Schedule Volatility in Hourly Service Work: Evidence and Implications for Federal Income-Support Policies.”\n \nAbstract: In the U.S.\, work opportunities for those with lower levels of formal education have moved in recent years toward service employment\, and this concentration is especially strong among households with children. Even compared to other jobs for those without college degrees\, service work is characterized by shorter tenure and less access to full-time hours\, patterns that are visible in national data and are more pronounced for those with children. In novel data collected through daily text-message reports from hourly service workers with young children\, we document additional patterns of volatility that have not previously been visible: in particular\, daily and weekly volatility in work hours. We show that this volatility requires workers aiming to maximize their earnings to set aside many more hours for work than they are actually paid for–on average\, twice as many.  We develop novel statistics to capture these forms of volatility and to describe their sources. Finally\, we discuss the implications of these findings for both means-tested programs and earnings-linked tax credits\, the two major forms of income support provided by the federal government to families with children.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism
DESCRIPTION:Organized as a response to the Museum’s recent acquisition of Titus Kaphar’s Flay (James Madison)\, this upcoming reinstallation of one of our most prominent gallery spaces forces us to grapple with our collection of European and American art\, 1650-1850.\n \nIn recent times\, growing public awareness of the continued reverberations of the legacy of slavery and colonization has challenged museums to examine the uncomfortable histories contained in our collections\, and challenged the public to probe the choices we make about those stories. Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:How Do Consumers Finance Increased Retirement Savings?
DESCRIPTION:Higher retirement savings might not translate into net wealth accumulation if\, rather than cutting spending\, individuals reduce their non-retirement savings or take on more debt. We use newly merged deposit-\, credit-\, and pension-account data from a large UK financial institution to examine a national policy that gradually increased retirement contributions from 2% to 8% of salary between March 2018 and April 2019. For every £1 reduction in take-home pay due to higher employee contributions\, employees cut their spending by £0.34\, especially in the restaurant and leisure categories\, and financed the remainder with lower deposit balances and higher debt. Those with lower initial deposit balances cut their spending the most\, while those with significant liquid savings first draw down their deposits. We use a lifecycle model calibrated to match the observed short-term responses to predict that long-run spending responses are larger but feature similar heterogeneity. Finally\, we examine the welfare consequences of potential policy reforms using a sufficient statistics approach. A social planner concerned about undersaving for retirement due to heterogeneous present bias would avoid targeting retirement interventions at high-liquidity individuals\, who are both less likely to cut their spending and less likely to be present-biased.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Student Dissertation Defense - Standing armies and crystal swords: Defense evolution across wild grape
DESCRIPTION:Carolyn Graham\, EEB PhD student\, presents their dissertation defense.\n\nSummary: The diversity of adaptations that plants demonstrate to defend themselves from herbivory has fascinated biologists for decades. To explain this wealth of defense traits\, researchers have developed a body of theory that uses patterns of ecological pressures in the environment to predict investment in defense\, but the importance of biological and geographic scale in determining which selective pressures dominate is only beginning to be tested. In this dissertation\, I explore the patterns and processes of defense trait evolution in plants\, examining whether defense investment across scales matches up with plant defense theory. Using the wild grape genus Vitis as my primary study system\, I synthesize comparative trait and occurrence data with mechanistic investigations of the processes that shape trait investment. In my first two chapters\, I use a phylogenetic framework to compare and contrast how patterns of trait evolution match up to plant defense theory depending on whether they are evaluated at the intraspecific or interspecific scale\, while considering a large body of traits associated with defense. I found that trait-trait correlations are rare across Vitis species compared to trait-environment correlations\, but that both types of interactions are scale-dependent. These results suggest that defenses in grape largely evolve independent of each other\, but that features of the environment thought to correlate with herbivory pressure are relatively better predictors of defense trait evolution. My third and fourth chapters center on calcium oxalate crystals in plant leaves\, an understudied trait that I use as a model to understand the mechanisms of plant defense evolution. As long as we have known about calcium oxalate crystal presence in plants\, researchers have believed that these structures are defensive against herbivory\, but recent literature has challenged that assumption. Through a systematic literature survey\, I find that crystal morphologies correlate differentially with geographic parameters\, suggesting that this morphological variation evolved in response to different ecological pressures. Additionally\, through experimental diet manipulations using a generalist herbivore\, I find that Vitis riparia-derived crystals do not operate as a defense against chewing arthropods\, but do seem to serve as a dynamic storage system for calcium in grape. By linking phylogenetic comparative and experimental approaches in tests of theory\, my dissertation provides us with a broader understanding of plant defense evolution in wild grape and beyond.\n\nThis is a hybrid event. \nJoin remotely: Join Remotely: https://umich.zoom.us/j/94285293918\nMeeting ID: 942 8529 3918\nPasscode: tuesem

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LRCCS Noon Lecture Series | Mediating Feuds and Making Minorities on the Sino-Tibetan Borderlands of Late Republican and Early Maoist China
DESCRIPTION:*This event is in-person only*\n\nThis talk examines efforts by the late-Republican and early-PRC states to mediate grassland disputes among Tibetan chiefdoms as key components in state-making processes designed to territorially and epistemologically discipline the Sino-Tibetan frontier according to the demands of progressively more powerful and interventionist state formations. It also suggests that the state’s inability to eliminate these types of disputes is an avenue through which to measure the incomplete nature of these transformations.\n   \n   Benno Weiner is Associate Professor in the Department of History at Carnegie Mellon University. He is author of the *Chinese Revolution on the Tibetan Frontier* and co-editor of *Contested Memories: Tibetan History under Mao Retold*. He is currently working on a manuscript with the working title: *“Imperial Borderland to Socialist State: Disintegration\, Territorialization\, and Minoritization on the Ethnic Margins of Modern China\,”* and a public facing book tentatively titled\, *“Making Minorities in Modern China.”*\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at chinese.studies@umich.edu.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:More than Gray: Reimagining Early America in Full Color
DESCRIPTION:The American past was lived in full color\, but this vibrant history can be easily missed in surviving evidence. You can’t deny that there’s something about a black-and-white photograph that feels… stuffy. With portraits showing people with their shirts buttoned right to the neck and everything in shades of gray and brown\, our imaginations can incline to thinking of the past as a bit staid\, if not downright dull. But look a little closer\, and you’ll see signs that the fashion choices available to those who came before us were more colorful than you might first think. From the fabrics they wore\, to the games they played\, or the books they read\, their world was alive with bright hues. This exhibit invites you to reimagine history with a fuller color palette and picture the vibrancy and joy that just might be hidden behind the unsmiling photographs.\n\nExhibition opening weekdays from 12-4.

SUMMARY:Other:Pop Up Opportunity Hub Coaching
DESCRIPTION:Pop up coaching allows you to meet with an Opportunity Hub coach in a space that is convenient to you! This semester\, the Opportunity Hub and LSA Psychology are partnering to bring you pop up coaching in the East Hall Psychology Atrium. Pop up coaching is a great opportunity to make meaningful progress toward your professional goals within a shorter period of time\; especially if you are a little pressed for time and are looking for on-the-spot support. For example\, if you have a grad school\, internship\, or job application due in a week\, drop-in coaching may be ideal. Pop up coaching is also great for students who are looking to try coaching for the first time.\n\nThis event is open to ALL students!

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Archives of Embarrassment: Playing Asian on Cold War U.S. Television
DESCRIPTION:With the “Hear\, Here” series\, we aim to facilitate conversations around new research in the humanities. Faculty fellows at the Institute for the Humanities will discuss a part of their current project in a short talk followed by a Q & A session.\n\nAbout this talk:\nThis talk reclaims Asian racial stereotypes in twentieth-century American media in order to offer a labor history of the performers behind them. Little is known about these performers and their work because these “archives of embarrassment” have been obscured by liberal identitarian desires for the “authentic” or “real” Asian American subject. I argue that these performers’ supporting roles\, background parts\, walk-ons\, and other sundry acting or acting-adjacent jobs produce what I call “Asian American non-stardom\,” and that this racialized labor has been foundational to the American entertainment industry.\n\nMelissa Phruksachart is a 2024-25 John Rich Faculty Fellow at the Institute for the Humanitied and Assistant Professor of Film\, Television\, & Media.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Dissertation Defense: Equivariant Modules Over Polynomial Rings in Infinitely Many Variables
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: \n\nA guiding principle of the field of equivariant commutative algebra is that non-noetherian rings behave like noetherian rings up to the action of a large group of symmetries. One of the central examples of this principle is the noetherianity of the infinite variable polynomial ring R=C[x_1\,x_2\,...] with the action of the infinite symmetric group \frakS permuting variables. In this thesis\, we further develop the equivariant commutative algebra of R by studying symmetric R-modules\, i.e.\, R-modules equipped with a compatible \frakS-action. In particular\, we study the local behavior of such modules over the \frakS-prime ideals h_n=(x_i^n:i\geq 1)\, and prove a number of structural results on the category of symmetric R/h_n-modules\, including giving a semi-orthogonal decomposition and generators for the bounded derived category of modules.\n\nAn important tool for our study is representation theory of various combinatorial categories\, such as a generalization of FI to a weighted setting. By proving an equivalence between weighted FI-modules and modules over infinite variable polynomial rings that are equivariant with respect to parabolic subgroups of the infinite general linear group\, we give finiteness properties of weighted FI-modules\, such as the rationality of an analogue of the Hilbert series and finite generation of local cohomology. Along the way\, we relate the polynomial representation theory of these parabolic subgroups to generalizations of Schur functors from categories consisting of flags of vector spaces.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM-AMO Seminar | Visualization of Tunable Electronic Structure of Van der Waals Heterostructures
DESCRIPTION:Van der Waals (vdW) heterostructures offer an unprecedented platform for engineering the physical properties of two-dimensional (2D) materials through control of twist angle\, strain\, and environmental interactions. The advent of state-of-the-art angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy with nanoscale spatial resolution (nanoARPES)\, combined with its ability to probe fully functional devices\, has opened new avenues for directly visualizing exotic electronic phenomena in these systems. In this talk\, I will present our work leveraging cutting-edge in-operando nanoARPES to directly map the electronic properties of vdW heterostructures and their functional devices. I will highlight experiments that demonstrate on-demand tuning of the electronic structure by varying the substrate\, twist angle\, alkali metal doping\, and applying an electric field. First\, I will discuss the formation of quasiparticle-like trions and polarons arising from strong many-body interactions in transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD)-based heterostructures. Next\, I will present our recent findings on the electronic structure of bilayer graphene on two distinct insulating substrates—hBN and RuCl₃—revealing intriguing new features. Time permitting\, I will also show how electric field tuning can modulate electronic interactions\, leading to van Hove singularities and flat bands in twisted bilayer graphene and twisted double bilayer graphene heterostructures.\n\nBio: \nJyoti Katoch is an Associate Professor in the Department of Physics at Carnegie Mellon University.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EHAP Lecture Series: From Reaction Norms to Adaptation: What Variation in (Physiological) Plasticity Tells Us and How to Measure It
DESCRIPTION:Global climate change and human-driven actions are altering climatic conditions and habitat characteristics worldwide. As a result\, animals experience various environmental changes that occur simultaneously\, requiring them to cope daily with multidimensional environmental variation. A key approach to addressing the fundamental question of whether and how populations can successfully adapt to environmental variability is to study how organisms respond to environmental changes by modifying their physiology and the consequences of these responses. Traits such as hormones and metabolic rates are not only highly sensitive to environmental fluctuations but also inherently flexible\, allowing for rapid responses that vary across different levels—from species to populations\, to individuals\, and even within individuals. In this talk\, I first describe how the responsiveness of physiological traits to environmental changes\, known as phenotypic plasticity\, can be measured by quantifying the degree of change via the slope of their reaction norm. Second\, I use data from a captive songbird population that I repeatedly exposed to a simulated cold spell\, to demonstrate that important information can be gained by quantifying variation in plasticity both among and within individuals in key physiological traits\, such as plasma concentrations of corticosterone and rates of organismal metabolism. Third\, I highlight the evolutionary implications of such variation in reaction norm slopes by reviewing available evidence that plasticity plays a crucial role in enabling evolutionary adaptation\, including insights from my own work. Finally\, I conclude by describing promising areas for future research and argue that studying variation in physiological plasticity is crucial for assessing the viability of species and populations in our ever-changing world.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Nam Center Colloquium Series | Korean Language Education in America 30 Years: Retrospect and Prospect
DESCRIPTION:While there is ‘some’ debate over who started teaching Korean first in American higher education institutions\, Korean language education in this country has a long history. With the establishment of the American Association of Teachers of Korean (aka AATK) in 1994\, Korean language education was at a dramatic turning point in terms of practical classroom teaching as well as Korean as a second or foreign language (KSL/KFL) research. AATK will celebrate its 30-year anniversary in 2025 and it is a perfect time to reassess what has been done during the past three decades and what needs to be done moving forward. In this era of globalization and the spread of Hallyu worldwide\, learning Korean language and culture has become a worthy endeavor for many students\, heritage learners and non-heritage learners alike. In this talk\, I will be reflecting on 30 years of Korean language education in U.S. higher education from both practical and academic perspectives.\n   \nHye-Sook Wang is an associate professor of East Asian Studies at Brown University. She is the author of Generation Gap and Other Essays and Frog's Tears and Other Stories (both by Cheng & Tsui)\, editor of Rise of Korean Language Programs in U.S. Institutes of Higher Education (2015\, Korea University Press) and Sociolinguistics and Korean Language Education (forthcoming in 2024\, Institute of East Asian Studies\, UC-Berkeley)\, and co-author of Integrated Korean: High Advanced I & II 1st & 2nd Ed. (University of Hawaii Press\, 2005\, 2025) in addition to many journal articles. She has also served as the editor-in-chief of The Korean Language in America: Journal of the American Association of Teachers of Korean for eight years after serving as the president of AATK from 2003 to 2006.\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at ncks.info@umich.edu.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Queer Belongings and the Jewish “Homeland”: Israeli and Jewish American Lives Between Home and Away
DESCRIPTION:Through a blend of fiction and academic inquiry\, Amit examines the ways queer Jewish lives challenge and reimagine narratives of homeland\, belonging\, and migration.\n\nIn her academic book “A Queer Way Out: The Politics of Queer Emigration from Israel (SUNY\, 2018)\, Amit explores the story of queer Israeli emigrants. Drawing on extensive fieldwork in Berlin\, London\, and New York\, she examined motivations for departure and feelings of unbelonging to the Israeli national collective. Amit showed that sexual orientation and left-wing political affiliation play significant roles in decisions to leave. Amit investigated how queer Israeli emigrants question national and heterosexual norms such as army service\, monogamy\, and reproduction\, in their decision to leave Israel. In her new research project\, Amit is conducting interviews with queer Jewish Americans grappling with notions of Homeland and Belonging\, particularly in the wake of the October 7th events and their profound global reverberations.\n\nMeanwhile\, her two fiction books center on queer experiences in Israel/Palestine\, offering intimate\, layered portrayals of life at the margin of society. Her new fiction work deals with a possible loss of the Hebrew language and a possible obsolescence of the state of Israel.   \n\nThe conversation with Amit will delve into how these themes converge in Amit’s creative and scholarly practices. It will explore the tensions between rootedness and mobility\, the impact of historical trauma on personal and collective identity\, and the possibilities for imagining alternative futures through queer lenses. Amit will also reflect on the role of storytelling—fictional and academic—as a tool for navigating the complexities of identity\, belonging\, and resistance in times of upheaval.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Green’s functions for the Stokes equations
DESCRIPTION:Green’s functions are an indispensable tool in the study of boundary value problems and linear partial differential equations. In highly viscous fluid flows\, the Navier-Stokes equations can be linearized to obtain the Stokes equations\, which are amenable to Green’s function analysis. Due to its relevance in fluid dynamics\, the Stokes equations are widely discussed in physics and engineering literature. Many of these resources use formal calculations and avoid rigorous mathematical justification. To address this gap in the literature\, we will derive the fundamental solution of the Stokes equations in free space and prove some of its key properties by drawing from the theory of distributions. We will then find the Green’s function for the Stokes equations on a half-space by using the Papkovich-Neuber representation. The formula obtained is simpler and easier to implement compared to the classical solution originally developed by J.R. Blake.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Multiracial Families: Increasing Rapidly
DESCRIPTION:This digital exhibit in the Shapiro Lobby showcases research about and narratives from people across the globe who are part of mixed race families.\n\nIn 1967\, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in the Loving v. Virginia case that marriage across racial lines was legal throughout the country. Intermarriage has increased steadily since then: one in five U.S. newlyweds (19%) were married to a person of a different race or ethnicity in 2019\, a more than sixfold increase from 3% in 1967 (Pew Research Center\, 2022).

SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Prison\, a Prisoner\, and a Prison Guard
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a multimedia exploration of the impact of prisons on countries and communities across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region through the lens of “prison art.” The exhibit delves into the dynamic interplay between incarceration and creative expression to make sense of carceral systems.\n\nBy presenting prison art from various countries in the MENA region\, including Algeria\, Egypt\, Iran\, Iraq\, Lebanon\, Palestine\, Sudan\, Syria\, and Yemen\, this exhibit unfolds as a “journey” into the prison system and demonstrates the ways in which art can be a tool of expression and reconciliation for survivors\, detainees’ families\, and society at large. It promotes drawing parallels between the prison experience in the region and worldwide\, highlights the intentionality of carceral systems\, and expands the conversation to include prison-impacted communities. Viewers are invited to navigate the cross-generational\, human experiences of imprisonment often obscured behind prison walls and within individuals.\n\nCurated by Sumaya Tabbah and Susan Aboeid of The Ḥafathah Collective\, this traveling exhibit was organized by U-M Students Organize for Syria (SOS) in partnership with U-M Library and with support from the U-M Arts Initiative.\n\nPlan to attend the related discussion\, \"Art\, Justice\, and Carcerality: The Role of Creative Expression in the Pursuit of Justice\,\" on February 6.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Being Mixed Race in a Mono-racially Organized World
DESCRIPTION:The exhibit \"Being Mixed Race in a Mono-racially Organized World: Interracial Identity in the U.S. and Around the World — What Research and Mixed Race People Tell Us\" is an exploration into the library's collections about the diversity of mixed race heritage. Through research\, narratives\, demographic data\, and a variety of visual and published materials\, explore multifaceted aspects of mixed race heritage with insights from many perspectives.\n\nThe 2020 U.S. Census illuminated a 276 percent increase in individuals who identify as \"two or more races\" since 2010. In recognition of the growing numbers of mixed race-identifying people at the University of Michigan\, throughout the country\, and across the globe\, we're excited to unveil this new exhibit — a unique exploration of changing demographics and intersectional identities.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:CREES Exhibition. Threading the Needle: Vestiges of Colonialism and Femininity\, an installation by Gluklya
DESCRIPTION:Gluklya’s work is a powerful example of socially engaged art at the intersections of gender\, class\, and cultural identity. By focusing on experiences of female textile workers in Kyrgyzstan\, the artist explores the often-overlooked stories of women affected by Soviet and post-Soviet colonialism. \"Threading the Needle: Vestiges of Colonialism and Femininity\" retells their stories using a diverse range of media — film\, sculpture\, watercolors\, and felt tapestries. Unfolding the implications of economic and societal pressures on women\, Gluklya explores issues of poverty\, isolation\, and exploitation among the garment workers.\n   \n   Personal stories are woven into a broader social context — such as the legacy of the \"Likbez\" (liquidation of illiteracy) campaign among women in Central Asia during Soviet rule and entrenched patriarchal traditions\, like \"Ala Kachuu\" (bride-kidnapping). This dynamic — where colonization and modernization intertwine the individual lives they touch — raises questions about cultural identity and the ethical borders of decolonized research.\n\nThis exhibition was curated by CREES alumna Dianne Beal (BA REES '79). See more of her work here: https://www.diannebeal.com/curatorial.\n   \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at crees@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Andy Ross Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:The pieces here are from a large series of works made over the last several years. In them\, Ross explores humor and personal meaning through absurd juxtapositions of pairs of wildly varied images. Each single image is stripped of its original context (be it\, for example\, a history book\, an instruction manual\, or a magazine advertisement)\, placed on a white background like some kind of specimen\, and presented afresh with a new “companion image.” These companion images confront\, contrast and converse with each other\, and thereby build new relationships\, narratives\, jokes\, and contexts.\n\nAndy Ross grew up in Macomb County\, and has been making art in various mediums since the 1970s. He received a BFA degree from College for Creative Studies\, and an MFA degree from University of Michigan. He has taught photography\, art\, and web design at colleges in California and Michigan. His photographs and collages have been exhibited in schools\, galleries\, and museums across the United States.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Angkorian Homecoming
DESCRIPTION:Informed by her experience as a refugee\, Phung Huynh’s projects explore the complexities of displacement\, assimilation\, and cultural negotiation among Cambodian and Vietnamese refugees who have resettled in the United States. She creates detailed graphite portraits on pink donut boxes to highlight the stories of Southeast Asians who have survived war trauma and genocide. Huynh’s serigraph prints about Donut Kids foreground intergenerational gaps as well as bridging the refugee parent and American child through the narratives of Cambodian American children who were raised by donut shop owners in California. Huynh’s most recent work of drawings of Cambodian Buddhist statue heads and photographic prints of decapitated statue bodies on fabric addresses the repatriation of looted Cambodian antiquities in the context of challenging the legacy of colonialism\, unethical museum practices\, and the refugee’s desire to return home.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Elizabeth Boyd-Hartmann Dizik Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:This body of work represents a playful exploration of form\, color\, and scale through the lens of cellular shapes. Inspired by the complex patterns of biological life\, the pieces are a celebration of growth\, transformation\, and the joy of experimentation. The use of non-precious materials\, such as wood balls and paint\, allowed for a liberating approach to composition and color\, while the spherical forms and circular panels evoke the look of petri dishes—symbolizing both scientific curiosity and organic development.\nBorn in Detroit\, Elizabeth is a multidisciplinary artist and mother based in the metro Detroit area\, where she works from a studio in her home. With a background in bench jewelry\, her earlier work focused on studio jewelry and was represented by Galerie Noel Guyomarc’h in Montreal.\nElizabeth’s work has been exhibited both locally and internationally. She holds a BA in Jewelry Design\, with First Class Honours\, from Central Saint Martins in London\, a BFA from the University of Michigan\, and an MFA from Cranbrook Academy of Art\, where she specialized in Metalsmithing and Architecture. Her diverse practice spans jewelry\, sculpture\, and installation\, blending materials and techniques to explore themes of production\, growth\, transformation\, and organic form.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Redefining the Crown
DESCRIPTION:In Winter 2025\, the Lane Hall exhibit space will feature a portraiture series titled Redefining the Crown showcasing the powerful stories of six Black breast cancer survivors.\n\nBased on a photo essay by U-M Faculty Versha Pleasant (MD/MPH) and Ava Purkiss (PhD) in Medicine at Michigan\, this exhibition examines the cultural and personal significance of hair within Black communities\, particularly through the lens of breast cancer treatment and recovery. The term \"crown\" is deeply symbolic in Black culture\, signifying beauty\, strength\, and identity. The featured photo essay by photographer Tafari Stevenson-Howard captures the intimate journeys of Ann Chatman\, Tanisha Kennedy\, Felecia McDaniel\, Shantell Elaine McCoy\, Tamara Lynn Myles\, and Veleria Banks.\n\nThrough their narratives and portraits\, the exhibit examines how these women have navigated the profound impact of hair loss caused by chemotherapy\, inviting the audience to witness their stories with radical empathy. It explores the cultural pride and personal identity intricately tied to their hair\, and how these elements are redefined amidst their battles with breast cancer.\n\nThe exhibit will be on view from January 21\, 2025 to August 8\, 2025. This exhibition is presented with support from IRWG\, the Department of Women's and Gender Studies\, and Michigan Medicine. \n\nLocated on the first floor of Lane Hall (204 S. State Street)\, the Exhibit Space is free and open to the public\, M-F\, 9am-4pm.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Bibliophile and the Library: Private-Press Books from the Collection of Bill Heidrich
DESCRIPTION:View beautifully illustrated books that stand as remarkable testaments to the work of twentieth-century small private presses\, which\, in contrast to the trend of mass commercialization\, produced limited editions that celebrated the uniqueness of manual craftsmanship. Features such as exquisite typeface design\, letterpress printing\, handmade paper\, traditional illustration techniques like woodcut and engraving\, and the inclusion of original art by renowned artists highlight the presses' dedication to artistry and detail.\n\nThe display opens with an edition of \"The Works of Geoffrey Chaucer\,\" published in 1896 by William Morris at his Kelmscott Press\, a pivotal press that greatly influenced the development of the private press movement as a means of preserving and revitalizing the fine printing and art traditions of the past. Additionally\, the exhibit includes some examples of artist’s proofs\, offering a glimpse into the intricate creative process behind these exceptional works.\n\nThese books are on loan from the collection of Bill Heidrich\, a long-time supporter of the University of Michigan Library.

Plants throughout the conservatory will be paired with microscope photographs and micro-CT scans that illustrate the otherwise invisible structures that protect leaves from chewing insects\, absorb (or repel!) water\, and even recruit “bodyguards”. You won’t look at leaves the same way again! \n\nThis project is a collaboration between MBGNA and the Weber and Vasconcelos labs in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology\, led by PhD student Rosemary Glos.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Gathering
DESCRIPTION:Welcome. Make Yourself At Home.\n \nA Gathering brings together the newest works of art to enter UMMA’s collection — many on display here for the first time. \n \nAs a free\, public museum\, UMMA staff takes care of art for the benefit of the community and society at large. The works on view in this exhibition\, all brought into the Museum between 2019 and the present\, shows how institutions like UMMA are becoming more permeable to societal challenges\, and more nimble in responding to them in service to all in their communities. In this exhibition you will find works that reflect on how global migrations\, race\, gender\, and ecological change shape the way we engage with the world and inform our visions for the future.\n \nThis collection of artistic engagements with issues give us tools to envision who we want to be as individuals\, as a museum\, and as a society\, connected to one another across space and experience.\n \nSo gather here to take in these latest works of art brought here for you. Gather here to be engulfed in their forms and meanings\, to discuss their takes\, to learn\, to disagree. Gather to relax\, make a friend\, drink a coffee\, finish the daily Wordle. Gather to feel full\, to be moved and inspired by all the possible imaginations of what is yet to come.\n \nCurated by Félix Zamora Gómez Irving Stenn\, Jr. Fellow in Public Humanities & Museum Pedagogy\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by Lizzie and Jonathan Tisch\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Office of the Provost.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism
DESCRIPTION:Organized as a response to the Museum’s recent acquisition of Titus Kaphar’s Flay (James Madison)\, this upcoming reinstallation of one of our most prominent gallery spaces forces us to grapple with our collection of European and American art\, 1650-1850.\n \nIn recent times\, growing public awareness of the continued reverberations of the legacy of slavery and colonization has challenged museums to examine the uncomfortable histories contained in our collections\, and challenged the public to probe the choices we make about those stories. Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Michelle Hinojosa: Logcabins
DESCRIPTION:Stamps Gallery commissioned Michelle Hinojosa (MFA\, 2023) to reimagine the pillars on Division Street that flank the Gallery. Hinojosa has created log cabin quilts to adorn the columns in front of Stamps Gallery. The log cabin quilts traditionally represent the warm hearth at the center of a home. This installation reflects on the interplay between home\, placemaking\, labor\, and intergenerational memories of migration. Rather than quilting cotton designed to softly embrace the body\, these quilts are sewn from outdoor grade\, UV-resistant polyester. The quilt is an ode to Hinojosa’s grandmother who illegally crossed the US/Mexico border holding her babies and her quilts. As she and her family drove across the United States to work in the fields of the Salinas Valley\, the quilts offered a safe space for her and her family. Hinojosa celebrates their resilience to her grandmother and elders while also drawing attention to precarity and violence experienced by refugees and migrants crossing the US-Mexico border in our present today.\nArtist’s bio:\nMichelle Inez Hinojosa is an artist\, educator\, and researcher whose work is informed by Indigenous and Latine/x/a/o studies. Born and raised in Texas\, she earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in both drawing and painting and art education with a minor in art history at the University of North Texas. She holds a Master of Fine Arts from the University of Michigan. She works with quilting\, bead weaving\, embroidery\, jewelry\, transparent film installations\, painting\, ceramics\, and sculpture to honor and explore the history of migration in her family and humanize the current discourse around migration still occurring at the southern border. Alongside her artwork she maintains a writing practice to re-story\, re-make\, and re-claim the often subordinated narratives of Latinx\, Chicanx\, Mexican\, and Texican peoples. \n\nRecently\, Hinojosa was named an inaugural Creative Careers Artist in Residence at the University of Michigan\, she has also attended residencies at Mildred's Lane (Pennsylvania)\, Anderson Ranch Art Center (Aspen\, CO) and The Cedars Union (Dallas\, TX).

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Brown Bag Seminar | Comments on closed universes
DESCRIPTION:We study closed universes in simple models of two dimensional gravity\, such as Jackiw-Teiteilboim (JT) gravity coupled to matter\, and a toy topological model that captures the key features of the former. We find there is a stark contrast between the perturbative and non-perturbative aspects of the theory. Semi-classically there is rich physics. However\, when non-perturbative effects are included we see the puzzling feature that there is a unique closed universe state in each theory.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CREES Noon Lecture. Prokofiev’s Alexander Nevsky and Its Afterlives
DESCRIPTION:In 1938\, the Russian director Sergei Eisenstein finished his first sound film\, Alexander Nevsky\, a historical epic that casts a thirteenth-century Russian victory over invading Teutonic Knights as an allegory of contemporary Soviet strength in the face of Nazi warmongering. Now a classic of Soviet cinema\, the film also boasts what has become one of the best-known musical scores in cinematic history. Composed by Sergei Prokofiev\, the score has appeared in a striking number of formats beyond the film\, from simple piano arrangements to a full-length cantata for orchestra and chorus. These versions have taken the music far beyond the film’s international circulation\, sparking critical debates that are a significant but largely unknown aspect of the film’s legacy.\n\n   This presentation follows Prokofiev’s music for Alexander Nevsky from its inception through the present day\, considering both the music’s genesis as well as the surprisingly varied ways it has engaged listeners over the past nine decades\, from its beginnings as state propaganda in the 1930s to showpiece for high-fidelity recording in the 1950s to open-air concert favorite in the post-Soviet 1990s.\n   \n   Kevin Bartig is Professor of Musicology at Michigan State University. His research focuses on music in Eastern Europe during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries\, and his published work has contributed to music\, film\, Slavic\, and theater studies. His first book\, Composing for the Red Screen: Prokofiev and Soviet Film (Oxford University Press\, 2013)\, draws on research in Russian archives to examine Sergei Prokofiev’s collaborations with leading figures in the early history of cinema. He further explores these creative figures’ encounters with Soviet censorship and the reception of their work during the Cold War and beyond in his second book\, Sergei Prokofiev’s Alexander Nevsky (Oxford University Press\, 2017). Bartig’s most recent book is the edited volume Three Loves for Three Oranges: Gozzi\, Meyerhold\, Prokofiev (Indiana University Press\, 2021)\, which examines key modernist developments in twentieth-century Russian theatre and opera. The volume received the 2022 American Society for Theatre Research Translation Prize.\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:More than Gray: Reimagining Early America in Full Color
DESCRIPTION:The American past was lived in full color\, but this vibrant history can be easily missed in surviving evidence. You can’t deny that there’s something about a black-and-white photograph that feels… stuffy. With portraits showing people with their shirts buttoned right to the neck and everything in shades of gray and brown\, our imaginations can incline to thinking of the past as a bit staid\, if not downright dull. But look a little closer\, and you’ll see signs that the fashion choices available to those who came before us were more colorful than you might first think. From the fabrics they wore\, to the games they played\, or the books they read\, their world was alive with bright hues. This exhibit invites you to reimagine history with a fuller color palette and picture the vibrancy and joy that just might be hidden behind the unsmiling photographs.\n\nExhibition opening weekdays from 12-4.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Thesis Defense: Differences in morphological traits associated with thermoregulation in two howler monkey species and their hybrids
DESCRIPTION:Defense title: \"Differences in morphological traits associated with thermoregulation in two howler monkey species and their hybrids\"\n\nAbstract: \"Primates\, as endotherms\, regulate their body temperature regardless of external conditions\, driving the evolution of phenotypic traits to adapt to climate variation. Morphological traits often follow Bergmann's and Allen's rules\, in which species adapted to colder climates tend to have larger body sizes (Bergmann's) and smaller limb-to-body ratios (LBR) (Allen's rule) to retain heat. However\, neotropical primate research on thermoregulation has focused on behavioral strategies\, overlooking morphological adaptations. I examined Bergmann's and Allen's rules in Alouatta pigra and A. palliata\, sister species that diverged ~3 MYA. Given A. pigra's evolutionary history\, and its thicker pelage and presence in higher altitudes than A. palliata\, I expected A. pigra to have larger body sizes and smaller LBR than A. palliata. I then extended my analysis to backcrossed hybrids of the two species to assess the influence of admixture on body size and LBR in a warmer hybrid zone. My results were consistent with Bergmann's and Allen's rule. Understanding primate thermoregulation is crucial for conservation\, as it sheds light on their capacity to adapt to changing environments.\"\n\nPoster photo credits: Milagros González\n\nThis is a hybrid event. \nTo join remotely: \nZoom link: https://umich.zoom.us/j/98320971369\nMeeting ID: 983 2097 1369\nPasscode: howler

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Learning Seminar in Algebraic Combinatorics: Valuations and Schubert matroids
DESCRIPTION:Valuations are a classical tool in convex geometry\; examples include the Euler characteristic\, Lebesgue measure\, and mixed volume. However\, in the past two decades\, valuations have also gained prominence in the theory of matroids. As every matroid gives rise to a matroid polytope\, one can develop a theory of subdivisions and valuations for matroids. In this talk\, we'll introduce valuations on matroids and examine a result of Derksen and Fink which says that Schubert matroids are a basis for matroids modulo valuation.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CANCELLED - Department Colloquium |  Probing the Structures of Pyramids using Cosmic Ray Muon Tomography
DESCRIPTION:The pyramids of ancient Egypt and of pre-Hispanic Mesoamerica have fascinated people  since the cultures that built them vanished into the annals of history.  How were they  built?  What were they used for?  Are there unknown internal substructures\, perhaps hidden chambers that have yet to be discovered?  Using the detector technology we developed for a particle physics experiment at Fermilab\, we intend to perform non-invasive searches for hidden structures at the Great Pyramid of Khufu\, in Egypt\, and at the Temple of Kukulkán at Chichén Itzá.  The apparatus will detect cosmic-ray muons produced high in the atmosphere that course through the pyramids to produce a tomographic image of their interiors. I will review the status of both projects\, describe in detail the technique we intend to use\, present recent simulation results and detector fabrication and test-beam results.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CLaSP/MIPSE seminar | Plasma XXI
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: \nI believe that the whole field of plasma science and its applications has entered a new era. What we are seeing is not only progress in individual separate areas of plasma physics and technology\, whether it is fusion\, astro/space\, materials or even biomedical applications\; but also growing interconnectivity among these areas.\n\nAbout the Speaker: \nDr. Roald Sagdeev is a distinguished plasma physicist whose pioneering work in controlled fusion\, and space research has left a lasting impact on the field. Born in the Soviet Union\, he became one of the youngest full academicians of the USSR Academy of Sciences at the age of 35. From 1973 to 1988\, Dr. Sagdeev was director of the Soviet Space Research Institute\, where he played a crucial role in groundbreaking space missions\, including the Venera probes to Venus\, Vega mission to Halley’s Comet\, Phobos missions to Mars’ moons\, and the Soyuz-Apollo Test Project\, the first U.S.-Soviet space collaboration. His leadership helped advance international space cooperation during the Cold War. Dr. Sagdeev has been an influential voice in space policy and arms control. In 1990\, he moved to the United States and became a professor at the University of Maryland\, where he continued his research in plasma physics\, magnetohydrodynamics (MHD)\, and international scientific collaboration. Dr. Sagdeev’s groundbreaking work has fundamentally shaped our understanding of plasma dynamics and space exploration\, cementing his legacy as one of the most influential figures in modern space science.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Student Number Theory: Ribet's converse to Herbrand's theorem
DESCRIPTION:I will present a 1976 paper by Ken Ribet called A modular construction of unramified p-extensions of Q(\mu_p)\, which proves the converse of a classical theorem due to Herbrand. An odd prime p is called irregular if it divides the class number of the cyclotomic field Q(\mu_p). On the other hand\, there are so-called Bernoulli numbers which appear as special values of L-functions. Kummer proved that a prime is irregular if and only if it divides certain Bernoulli numbers. The Herbrand-Ribet theorem is a refinement of Kummer's criterion. Ribet's elegant proof weaves together different facets of number theory\, including modular forms\, Galois representations\, and class field theory. We will explain relevant notions in modular forms before focusing on the construction of Galois representations from cusp eigenforms.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Research Tools for Earthen Infrastructure Facing Extreme Weather
DESCRIPTION:Seminar Abstract: Weather and climate disasters are becoming more frequent in the U.S. In 2024\, 27 events each caused over\n$1 billion in damages. Extreme weather consists of low-probability occurrences with high intensities that often devastate\nsociety\, the environment\, and the economy. Earthen infrastructure such as coastal dunes\, embankments\, and levees can be\ncompromised when their design and construction requirements do not consider the critical conditions they experience. Studies\nconducted using field investigations\, physical and numerical modeling\, and geospatial analysis provide insight into the\neffectiveness of instrumentation and remote sensing. Determining the limitations in data is necessary to frame the sustainable\nsolutions presented.\n\nAbout the Speaker: Dr. Spears is a Research Assistant Professor at Tennessee State University. Before earning her PhD in Civil\nGUEST SPEAKER\nEngineering at Jackson State University\, Dr. Spears earned her BSE and MSE in Civil Engineering from the University of\nMichigan and the University of Texas at Austin\, respectively. Following obtaining her master’s\, she worked in the civil\nengineering consulting industry. She also received her PE license in Civil/Geotechnical Engineering from the state of Michigan.\nDr. Spears’ research focuses on Geotechnical and Geoenvironmental Engineering to understand the impacts of extreme\nweather on earthen infrastructure and determine sustainable solutions. She has conducted local\, state-wide\, and international\nresearch. As a Detroit native and alum of Michigan Engineering's former Summer Engineering Academy pre-collegiate\nprograms\, M-Engin Academy\, NSBE\, LSAMP\, ASCE\, Alternative Spring Break – Chicago\, Novice Women's Rowing\, and former\nMustard Seed Campus Ministry\, Dr. Spears takes Michigan's legacy with her wherever she goes.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Comparison theorem for viscosity solutions of HJB equations posed on networks ramified with the nonlinear local-time Kirchhoff's boundary condition.
DESCRIPTION:In this talk\, I present the results of my last paper related to viscosity solutions for HJB equations posed on networks\, of second order type and non degenerate at the vertex. The key point is to use the new boundary condition at the junction point\, called: nonlinear local-time Kirchhoff's boundary condition\, and build test functions with local-time derivatives absorbing  the: Kirchhoff's speed of the Hamiltonians.  Note that even without the presence of the external local-time variable in the HJB problems already studied in the literature\, the ‘artificial’ introduction of this deterministic local-time variable\, allowed an answer to a Lions-Souganidis problem to the fully nonlinear and non degenerate framework. Finally\, it is important also to emphasize that the comparison theorem for viscosity solutions is stated here in the strong sense for the Kirchhoff’s boundary condition\, namely without any dependency of the values of the Hamiltonians at the boundary\, which is also innovative for Neumann problems in the nonlinear case for viscosity theory.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:DCMB Weekly Seminar Series featuring Cui Tao\, PhD (of Mayo Clinic)
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:  Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Informatics constitute a highly interdisciplinary field where data serves as the cornerstone for driving innovation and generating insights. The complexity of this ecosystem is heightened by its reliance on multimodal data from diverse sources\, demanding robust methods for data integration\, processing\, and analysis. This framework underscores two pivotal components: Biomedical Semantics and Data Intelligence. In my research\, I have actively engaged in these two critical steps\, striving to develop solutions that bridge the gap between data science and tangible clinical and biomedical impacts. Overcoming these challenges necessitates the development of advanced informatics techniques\, including strategies for data standardization and integration\, as well as methods for knowledge representation and subsequent inference and analysis.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Michigan Lectures in Algebraic Geometry: Gromov's cancellation\, motivic invariants and the Grothendieck ring of varieties I
DESCRIPTION:I explain some cancellation and non-cancellation phenomena in algebraic geometry\, such as the Gromov cancellation question: If the open complements of two closed subvarieties of an ambient variety are isomorphic\, are these closed subvarieties birational? This question has a positive answer when varieties are smooth or simple normal crossing\, and a negative answer in more general cases. The emphasis will be on the structure of the Grothendieck ring of varieties and on the groups of birational self-maps of algebraic varieties. This will be an overview of the work of many people in the last 25 years since Gromov's original formulation\, including Larsen-Lunts\, Borisov\, Zakharevich\, Hassett-Lai\, Kontsevich-Tschinkel\, and most recently\, work by Lin and myself.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Probability and Analysis Seminar: Local geometry and spectral transitions in high-dimensional classification
DESCRIPTION:We study the spectral theory of a family of random matrices that are variants on empirical covariance matrices\, with entries that can have correlations through projections of the data onto some O(1)-many directions. These matrices arise naturally when looking at the empirical Hessians of many high-dimensional statistical tasks at different points in parameter space\, to probe the local geometry of their loss landscapes. We prove limits for the bulk distribution and any outlier eigenvalues\, in a way that only depends on the point in parameter space through finitely many “summary statistics” of the parameter. This allows us to probe the evolution of the Hessian as one moves through parameter space via some training dynamics like stochastic gradient descent\, establishing interesting phenomena like splitting and emergence of outliers over the course of training in basic classification tasks. Based on joint work with G. Ben Arous\, J. Huang\, and A. Jagannath.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:RTG Seminar Topology\, Geometry\, Dynamics:   Branched Bending in Cusped Hyperbolic 3-Manifolds
DESCRIPTION:A conjecture of Menasco and Reid states that a hyperbolic knot complement does not contain a closed embedded totally geodesic surface. One heuristic that is used to study the absence of such a submanifold is parabolic cohomology–in particular\, if the parabolic cohomology is known to vanish in specific settings\, then it serves as an obstruction to bending along a totally geodesic hypersurface. In this talk\, we consider the Borromean rings complement\, which is known to not admit any closed embedded totally geodesic surfaces but still has interesting parabolic cohomology. We construct a complex of surfaces that can be used to explain these deformations.

SUMMARY:Performance:Girl Named Tom
DESCRIPTION:Captivating sibling harmonies\n\nThree siblings unlock one harmony to unite the world as Girl Named Tom. The trio—Bekah\, Joshua\, and Caleb Liechty—notably made history as the only group to ever win NBC’s The Voice. Along the way\, they’ve impressively generated over 25 million streams across chart-rattling covers such as “River\,” “The Chain\,” and “Dust in the Wind.” The proud Midwesterners gained further traction with the independent release of Another World EP. In 2022\, they served up their debut holiday EP\, One More Christmas\, which reached #1 on the iTunes Charts\, and embarked on a massive arena tour supporting Pentatonix for “A Christmas Spectacular.” \n\nSince 2022 the group has been living life on the road performing over 200 shows to date. The sibling trio has captivated millions on television\, appearing on The Ellen DeGeneres Show\, singing for the Indy500\, and returning for a heart wrenching performance on The Voice Finale a year after their win. Their inimitable harmony will only continue to resound louder with their most recent release “Locked In Your Love”

SUMMARY:Performance:Kathleen Edwards
DESCRIPTION:For decades\, Kathleen Edwards has been a cornerstone of North American roots music.\n \nSince making her debut with 2002’s Failer\, she’s spent the 21st century occupying the grey area between genres\, swirling together her own mix of alt-country\, folk\, and heartland rock & roll. It’s a sound that has earned its creator more than a half-dozen Juno nominations\, as well as Top 40 success on both sides of the Canadian/American border. Now in her third decade as an artist\, Kathleen Edwards has done more than carry the torch of songwriting heroes like Tom Petty\, Neil Young\, and Lucinda Williams — she’s opened the door for others\, too\, inspiring a new generation of artists who\, like her\, blur the boundaries between genre and generation. \n\nA native of Ottawa\, Ontario\, Edwards was still in her early 20s when she released the critically-acclaimed Failer. The album’s warm\, woozy sound — crystallized on radio hits like “Six O’Clock News” — quickly turned her into one of the era’s alt-country heroes. From the very start\, though\, Edwards’ music seemed to exist somewhere out of time\, resisting categorization even as Failer received a Juno nomination for “Roots & Traditional Album of the Year.” \n\n“No one knew what to call my type of music back then\,” she says of those early years. “The Americana genre didn’t exist yet\, so they couldn’t categorize me. I just made the kind of music I wanted to make.” \n\nEdwards continued blazing her own trail with follow-up albums like Back to Me and Asking for Flowers. By the time Voyageur arrived in 2012\, Americana very much did exist as a genre\, and Edwards found herself riding a newfound commercial peak. The album reached Number 2 on the Canadian Albums Chart and Number 3 on Billboard’s Folk Albums chart. Even so\, a busy decade on the road had left her exhausted. After touring in support of Voyageur’s release\, Edwards left the music business altogether and moved to suburban Ontario\, where she opened a coffee shop called — defiantly — “Quitters.” \n\nWhen a phone call arrived from Maren Morris\, who was looking for songwriting partners for a new project\, Edwards jumped at the chance to collaborate. The two musicians co-wrote “Good Woman\,” which appeared on Morris’ Grammy-nominated album Girl in 2019. Back home in Canada\, Edwards continued to write new material\, eventually partnering with producer Ian Fitchuk for the album Total Freedom. Released in 2020\, the album expanded her sound and her audience\; Total Freedom didn’t just mark her return to the music industry. It was a rebirth\, too.\n\nWhat’s next? New music\, of course. She and Grammy-winner Jim Scott co-produced and released an album called Covers\, which pays homage to some of her songwriting heroes - Tom Petty\, REM\, John Prine\, Bruce Springsteen\, et al. Edwards remains a fan of “ripping guitar riffs and good songs\,” and she’s combining both into a follow-up album co-produced by Grammy-winners Jason Isbell and Gena Johnson that will showcase her legacy as well as her evolution. \n\nShe maintains a presence on the road\, too\, playing her own gigs one minute and sharing shows with her heroes — including Willie Nelson\, John Fogerty\, and Bob Dylan — the next.\n\n“The amount of things I’ve gone through might make someone else quit…but quitting doesn’t quite do it for me\,” she says. “I can’t help but want to write great songs\, connect with people\, and see what’s ahead. I don’t love looking behind\, even though it’s one of the ways we can see what we’ve done\, so I’m looking forward.”
