Evolutionary analyses have also been applied to epidemiological data to better understand pathogenesis and identify bacterial genotypes associated with disease. Such principles have only recently been applied to group B Streptococcus (GBS), a leading cause of sepsis and meningitis in newborn babies and of varying complications in pregnant women and the elderly with underlying medical conditions. Over time, there have been shifts in the GBS serotype distribution associated with invasive disease and noted increases in antibiotic resistance and asymptomatic colonization frequencies, and incidence of GBS disease in nonpregnant adult and elderly populations. GBS is also a major pathogen of bovines and has been isolated from many other animal species; the transmission dynamics, however are not clear. Genotyping data from bovine and human strains have demonstrated clustering of strains from each source and a subset of overlapping genotypes in both populations, suggesting that some genotypes may be more readily transmitted and better adapted for survival in multiple hosts. More importantly, one GBS genotype (multilocus sequence type (ST)-17) has been shown to disproportionately affect neonates, have enhanced invasiveness, and more frequently cause meningitis; this genotype was also demonstrated to have originated from bovines. While the pathogenic mechanisms behind ST-17-mediated human disease are not known, ST-17 strains and close relatives have distinct virulence gene profiles and were more likely to persist in women before and after antibiotic treatment, indicating an ability to escape antimicrobial action. This talk will highlight how molecular methods and analytical tools have been used to examine epidemiological data to better understand GBS colonization and neonatal disease pathogenesis, and how this methodology can be easily applied to study any infectious disease agent.

The special exhibition "Dear Mr. Mandela... Mrs. Parks: Children's Letters, Global Lessons" opened in July 2008 at the Nelson Mandela National Museum in Mthatha, South Africa, Mandela's birthplace in the Eastern Cape Province.\n \n That exhibition is still on view in South Africa, and now a U.S. version comes to the Michigan State University Museum. The inspiration for "Dear Mr. Mandela... Mrs. Parks" came from the hundreds of children around the world who have written letters to two individuals--Nelson Mandela of South Africa and the late Rosa Parks of the United States--who are internationally known for their work in human rights. The letters reveal why children revere Mandela and Parks and also young people's desires for guidance and understanding about life. \n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: MSU Museum\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu/\n Contact phone: 517-432-2370\n Contact email: pr@museum.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu/\n LOCATION:MSU Museum - Main Gallery END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20100117T050000Z UID:1258986802870-0043@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

A number of software facilities for data management are initially discussed and illustrated on empirical data. Some relatively simple statistical analyses are then dealt with, incl. optimal search for variable transformation to near normality, frequency tables, analysis of variance, which are similarly exemplified with the use of data from several studies. The widely used multiple regression analysis is then focused on and illustrated on empirical data. The workshop is built on demonstration of each discussed command and associated output is thoroughly discussed. The goal of the workshop is to motivate its attendees to consider using STATA in their own research as a highly versatile modern statistical software that offers rich statistical output information at the cost of short and intuitive commands.

I will describe and discuss Snow's achievements, drawing on our 2003 biography, stressing the following particularly valuable features of Snow's thought and behavior.
\n - Grounding of his disease theories in pathophsiology
\n -A focus on disease transmission rather than on disease agent
\n -Use of knowledge from other areas of science to falsify the major competing hypothesis
\n -Unprejudiced approach to understanding the role of social class
\n -Attention to development of simple prevention measures
\n - Perseverance in data collection
\n -Willingness to publish before every issue has been resolved.

In fact, all of us carry neurological "body maps" in our brain that tell us how big or small we are, how we are put together, and how we function. However, when our "maps" don't conform with our actual bodies, we cannot move easily or efficiently. This is truer for no one more than musicians, who require precise fine motor coordination to perform well. Come and discover how to identify your own body map, and how to correct it for optimal performance and injury prevention! Bring your instrument and dress comfortably.

The special exhibition "Dear Mr. Mandela... Mrs. Parks: Children's Letters, Global Lessons" opened in July 2008 at the Nelson Mandela National Museum in Mthatha, South Africa, Mandela's birthplace in the Eastern Cape Province.\n \n That exhibition is still on view in South Africa, and now a U.S. version comes to the Michigan State University Museum. The inspiration for "Dear Mr. Mandela... Mrs. Parks" came from the hundreds of children around the world who have written letters to two individuals--Nelson Mandela of South Africa and the late Rosa Parks of the United States--who are internationally known for their work in human rights. The letters reveal why children revere Mandela and Parks and also young people's desires for guidance and understanding about life. \n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: MSU Museum\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu/\n Contact phone: 517-432-2370\n Contact email: pr@museum.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu/\n LOCATION:MSU Museum - Main Gallery END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20100204T050000Z UID:1264690690899-0010@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

\n
\n Produced and directed by Emily and Sarah Kunstler, the daughters of William Kunstler. The NY Times described him as "the most hated and most loved lawyer in America." The sisters were awarded the L'Oreal Women of Worth Vision Award at the 2009 Sundance Film Festival and just recently won the Special Jury Prize for Best New Filmmakers at the Traverse City Film Festival.
\n
\n This movie explores the life of their father, the late radical civil rights lawyer. In the 1960s and 70s, Kunstler fought for civil rights with Martin Luther King Jr. and represented the famed "Chicago 8" activists who protested the Vietnam War. When the inmates took over Attica prison, or when the American Indian Movement stood up to the federal government at Wounded Knee, they asked Kunstler to be their lawyer.
\n
\n Assistant Professor of Law Catherine Grosso of the MSU College of Law will introduce the film and lead a discussion afterward.

The richness and diversity of workers' experiences and workers culture is explored and presented through an ongoing series of exhibits, lectures, and presentations; writing and research projects; reunions; and demonstrations and discussions. The program was established in 1992 and is coordinated by the Michigan Traditional Arts Program at the MSU Museum and the Labor Education Program in the College of Social Science's School of Labor and Industrial Relations.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: MSU Museum\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu\n Contact name: John Beck\n Contact phone: (517) 432-3982\n Contact email: beckj@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu\n LOCATION:MSU Museum Auditorium END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20100211T210000Z UID:1261494640988@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20100211T210000Z DTEND:20100212T045900Z SUMMARY:Set-level Analyses for Genome-wide Association Data DESCRIPTION: In this setting of genome-wide association studies, we propose a method for assigning a measure of significance to pre-defined sets of markers in the genome. The sets can be genes, conserved regions, or groups of genes such as pathways. Using the proposed methods and algorithms, evidence for association between a particular functional unit and a disease status can be obtained not just by the presence of a strong signal from a SNP within it, but also by the combination of several simultaneous weaker signals that are not strongly correlated. This approach has several advantages. First, moderately strong signals from different SNPs are combined to obtain a much stronger signal for the set, therefore increasing power. Second, in combination with methods that provide information on untyped markers, it leads to results that can be readily combined across studies and platforms that might use different SNPs. Third, the results are easy to interpret, since they refer to functional sets of markers that are likely to behave as a unit in their phenotypic effect. Finally, the availability of gene-level p-values for association is the first step in developing methods that integrate information from pathways and networks with genome-wide association data, and these can lead to a better understanding of the complex traits genetic architecture.

\n Can human beings control, or even fully understand, the forces of nature? The master of film suspense offers one possible answer. "Though we're never sure why the birds are rising up, their behavior seems to be a response to humankind's complacency and arrogance." --www.allmovie.com

The special exhibition "Dear Mr. Mandela... Mrs. Parks: Children's Letters, Global Lessons" opened in July 2008 at the Nelson Mandela National Museum in Mthatha, South Africa, Mandela's birthplace in the Eastern Cape Province.\n \n That exhibition is still on view in South Africa, and now a U.S. version comes to the Michigan State University Museum. The inspiration for "Dear Mr. Mandela... Mrs. Parks" came from the hundreds of children around the world who have written letters to two individuals--Nelson Mandela of South Africa and the late Rosa Parks of the United States--who are internationally known for their work in human rights.

Multidimensional scaling (MDS) tries to accomplish exactly that objective. To be more precise, MDS produces a "map" of stimuli, based upon information about the "proximities" among those stimuli.\n \n MDS methods have many potential applications in empirical research. They can be used to: simplify the contents of large, complex datasets; model similarities among sets of objects; estimate the cognitive structures underlying survey responses; and optimize the measurement characteristics of qualitative observations. MDS can be generalized to show individual differences across distinct data sources (e.g., subsets of survey respondents or data collected at different time points). It also can be adapted to represent respondent preferences among a set of stimuli (so-called "ideal points" models).\n \n Specific topics to be covered in the short course include: The basic idea of MDS; the general estimation procedure; interpretation of results; different varieties of MDS; and software options for performing MDS analyses. These lectures are intended for a general audience. They do not assume any prior experience with MDS or familiarity with advanced statistical methods. \n \n The workshop is presented by Dr. William Jacoby. Registration begins January 11, 2010.

DESCRIPTION: Professor Horace Smith describes: Ordinarily, sunspots and solar activity wax and wane in an eleven year cycle. Recently, we have been in a deep minimum of solar activity, and sunspots have been few and far between. There are signs, however, that the sun is finally emerging from this spell of inactivity. To what extent can the long term behavior of solar activity be predicted? Can we predict the size and timing of the next solar maximum? And what are the implications of solar activity for life on Earth, and for satellites and astronauts in space?\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Dept. of Physics/Astronomy and Abrams Planetarium\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.pa.msu.edu/astro\n Contact name: Mary Gowans\n Contact phone: 517-355-4676\n Contact email: gowans@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.pa.msu.edu/astro\n LOCATION:Abrams Planetarium END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20100219T010000Z UID:1264434351532@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

DESCRIPTION: The association between birth weight and early mortality is among the strongest seen in epidemiology. While preterm delivery causes both small births and high mortality, it does not explain the association. The nature of the relatio nbetween birth weight and mortality is subject to debate. Among the evidence against a causal effect of birth weight on mortality often have better survival than small babies from a lower-risk population. This phenomenon can in principle be explained entirely by the presence of unmeasured confounding factors that increased mortality and decrease birth weight. This talk describes how the birth-weight-specific mortality curve may be accurately reproduced assuming strong confounding and no causal effect of birth weight on mortality. These same assumptions can, additionally, demonstrate how unknown confounders can cause mortality curves stratified by known risk factors to intersect.

The exhibition will showcase examples of birds from MSU Museum collections, including many species that Darwin encountered in Patagonia; the domestic pigeon and chicken breeds that he studied while he was investigating artificial selection, and a Michigan example of adaptive radiation among finches.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: MSU Museum\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu/\n Contact phone: 517-355-2370\n Contact email: pr@museum.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu/\n LOCATION:MSU Museum - West Gallery END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20100301T162000Z UID:1263311027440@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20100301T162000Z DTEND:20100302T045900Z SUMMARY:Inorganic Chemistry Seminar DESCRIPTION: Prof. Christian Reber, Universite de Montreal, will present a seminar: "Luminescence spectroscopy of square-planar platinum(II) and palladium(II) complexes: molecular electronic structure and intermolecular effects". \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Chemistry\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.chemistry.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Nan Murray\n Contact phone: (517) 355-9715 Ext. 191\n Contact email: murray@chemistry.msu.edu\n LOCATION:136 Chemistry Building END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20100301T171500Z UID:1266429302467@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20100301T171500Z DTEND:20100301T183000Z SUMMARY:American Cancer Society presents Funding Opportunities DESCRIPTION: Need Research Funds?

A Harvard-trained neuroanatomist who experienced a severe hemorrhage in the left hemisphere of her brain in 1996, Dr. Taylor could not walk, talk, read, write, or recall any of her life on the afternoon of her stroke. It took eight years for her to successfully rebuild her brain - from the inside out. In response to the swelling and trauma of the stroke, which placed pressure on her dominant left hemisphere, the functions of her right hemisphere blossomed. \n\n Price: $20.00\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://whartoncenter.com\n Contact name: Bob Hoffman\n Contact phone: 517-432-2000\n Contact email: hoffma95@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.whartoncenter.com\n LOCATION:Wharton Center: Cobb Great Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20100302T010000Z UID:1266850443934@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

The inspiration for "Dear Mr. Mandela... Mrs. Parks" came from the hundreds of children around the world who have written letters to two individuals--Nelson Mandela of South Africa and the late Rosa Parks of the United States--who are internationally known for their work in human rights. The letters reveal why children revere Mandela and Parks and also young people's desires for guidance and understanding about life. \n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: MSU Museum\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu/\n Contact phone: 517-432-2370\n Contact email: pr@museum.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu/\n LOCATION:MSU Museum - Main Gallery END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20100319T050000Z UID:1267544905207-0018@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

The inspiration for "Dear Mr. Mandela... Mrs. Parks" came from the hundreds of children around the world who have written letters to two individuals--Nelson Mandela of South Africa and the late Rosa Parks of the United States--who are internationally known for their work in human rights. The letters reveal why children revere Mandela and Parks and also young people's desires for guidance and understanding about life. \n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: MSU Museum\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu/\n Contact phone: 517-432-2370\n Contact email: pr@museum.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu/\n LOCATION:MSU Museum - Main Gallery END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20100324T050000Z UID:1267544905207-0023@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

Mrs. Parks" came from the hundreds of children around the world who have written letters to two individuals--Nelson Mandela of South Africa and the late Rosa Parks of the United States--who are internationally known for their work in human rights. The letters reveal why children revere Mandela and Parks and also young people's desires for guidance and understanding about life. \n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: MSU Museum\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu/\n Contact phone: 517-432-2370\n Contact email: pr@museum.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu/\n LOCATION:MSU Museum - Main Gallery END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20100330T050000Z UID:1267544905207-0029@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

The workshop begins with outlining a method for interval estimation of the intraclass correlation coefficient, a highly informative index in decisions whether to proceed with two-level modeling at all versus conventional single-level modeling. A method extension is then described, which addresses the related issue whether one could use popular and easier to interpret two-level models rather than a three-level modeling approach, in an empirical setting with clustered data. Multilevel methods for analyzing longitudinal data are then discussed. At the software level, the latent variable modeling programs Mplus and LISREL are utilized. (Free of charge versions of these software are available, which can be used for accomplishing the goals of the workshop, and can be downloaded from www.statmodel.com and www.ssicentral.com, respectively.) Throughout the workshop, data examples are used to illustrate the discussed methods.\n\n Price: Free to Graduate Students, Faculty and Research Staff\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Brian Silver\n Contact phone: 517-353-9288\n Contact email: cstatinf@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.cstat.msu.edu/services/workshops/workshop.aspx?id=1250\n LOCATION:106B Wells Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20100402T210000Z UID:1269972398186@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:International Events (Study Abroad, ...)

Mrs. Parks" came from the hundreds of children around the world who have written letters to two individuals--Nelson Mandela of South Africa and the late Rosa Parks of the United States--who are internationally known for their work in human rights. The letters reveal why children revere Mandela and Parks and also young people's desires for guidance and understanding about life. \n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: MSU Museum\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu/\n Contact phone: 517-432-2370\n Contact email: pr@museum.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu/\n LOCATION:MSU Museum - Main Gallery END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20100408T050000Z UID:1271856235786@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20100408 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20100409 SUMMARY:Entrepreneurship and Engagement: Building a Bridge of Prosperity Between Romania and North America.

However, limited research addresses this issue by examining data prospectively collected from pregnancy through the first years of life. Both maternal obesity and diabetes status have been linked with early childhood overweight, yet the pregnancy-specific mechanisms (rather than early childhood or maternal pregravid environmental factors) have yet to be investigated. This talk will examine early determinants of development of overweight from both mechanistic and behavioral approaches using data from the Pregnancy, Infection, and Nutrition Study. Data on 400 children will be used to address the following research questions: 1)To what extent does maternal pregravid BMI and glucose tolerance during pregnancy contribute to the child's overweight status at age 3 after controlling for prenatal behaviors (i.e. diet and physical activity)?; 2)Do elevated lipid levels as measured by triglycerides, lipid particle size and concentration during the prenatal period predict childhood weight status at age 3?; and 3) Do high leptin levels during pregnancy predict childhood weight status at age 3?\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Ashley James\n Contact phone: 353-8623\n Contact email: ajames@epi.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.epi.msu.edu/seminars.htm\n LOCATION:E4 Fee Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20100408T211000Z UID:1269279318274@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20100408T211000Z DTEND:20100409T045900Z SUMMARY:Chemistry Colloquium DESCRIPTION: Professor Anne McNeil of the University of Michigan will present a seminar entitled "Responsive Molecular Gels: Bridging the Gap Between Rationale Design and Serendipity."\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Chemistry\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.chemistry.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Janet Haun\n Contact phone: 517 355-9715\n LOCATION:Chemistry Room 136 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20100409T000000Z UID:1262785815707@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Movie / Film DTSTART:20100409T000000Z DTEND:20100409T023000Z SUMMARY:Open City (Roma, Citta Apperta) DESCRIPTION: Open City (Roma, Citta Apperta)(1945)

Exhibition assistant Kaitlyn Osborn, an MSU Anthropology major, is leading the tour as part an internship concentrating on the Benberry collection.\n \n Michigan State University Museum premiered the textile collections of the late Cuesta Benberry, one of the twentieth-century's pioneers of research on American quiltmaking and the forerunner of research on African American quiltmaking. Benberry had a long association with the MSU Museum, the home of the Great Lakes Quilt Center, and when she passed away in 2007, her family gave the Michigan State University Museum her collection of African and African American quilts and her quilt history. Then in 2009, the American Folk Art Museum in New York City transferred its Benberry collections to the MSU Museum so that the bulk of her work could be in one place where it could be more effectively accessed for research and educational uses.\n Over the past year, MSU Museum staff, students like Osborn and volunteers have been "unpacking" -- sorting through, cataloging, and rehousing Benberry's collection.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: MSU Museum\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://msu.edu/msumuseum/\n Contact phone: 517-355-2370\n Contact email: pr@museum.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu/Exhibitions/Current/TheLegacyofCuestaBenberry.html\n LOCATION:MSU Museum - Heritage Gallery END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20100411T183000Z UID:1269878202440@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Public Programs DTSTART:20100411T183000Z DTEND:20100411T193000Z SUMMARY:The Little Star That Could DESCRIPTION: Little Star is sad because he has no planets of his own, so he sets out on a quest to find some.

The letters reveal why children revere Mandela and Parks and also young people's desires for guidance and understanding about life. \n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: MSU Museum\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu/\n Contact phone: 517-432-2370\n Contact email: pr@museum.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu/\n LOCATION:MSU Museum - Main Gallery END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20100414T040000Z UID:1271169170596-0002@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Public Programs DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20100414 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20100415 SUMMARY:CMS Donation Drive for Gateway Community Services DESCRIPTION: Cleaning supplies, board games, and books are just a few of the items the MSU Community Music School (CMS) is collecting in a donation drive for East-Lansing based Gateway Community Services.

\n Directed by Derek Jarman
\n
\n Postcolonial themes, gender role deconstructions, and a gothic setting are combined in Derek Jarman's unconventional interpretation of Shakespeare's classic.

\n "Situated somewhere between Punk and Python, and mixing destructive glee with ornate inconsequence, Jarman's films are the most fascinating and probably most central work of the New British Cinema." Film Comment

The special exhibition "Dear Mr. Mandela... Mrs. Parks: Children's Letters, Global Lessons" opened in July 2008 at the Nelson Mandela National Museum in Mthatha, South Africa, Mandela's birthplace in the Eastern Cape Province.\n \n That exhibition is still on view in South Africa, and now a U.S. version comes to the Michigan State University Museum. The inspiration for "Dear Mr. Mandela... Mrs. Parks" came from the hundreds of children around the world who have written letters to two individuals--Nelson Mandela of South Africa and the late Rosa Parks of the United States--who are internationally known for their work in human rights. The letters reveal why children revere Mandela and Parks and also young people's desires for guidance and understanding about life. \n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: MSU Museum\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu/\n Contact phone: 517-432-2370\n Contact email: pr@museum.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu/\n LOCATION:MSU Museum - Main Gallery END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20100422T040000Z UID:1271169170596-0010@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Public Programs DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20100422 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20100423 SUMMARY:CMS Donation Drive for Gateway Community Services DESCRIPTION: Cleaning supplies, board games, and books are just a few of the items the MSU Community Music School (CMS) is collecting in a donation drive for East-Lansing based Gateway Community Services.

Join us for a conversation with American composer John Corigliano, winner of the Pulitzer Prize, an Academy Award (for the score to The Red Violin), and multiple Grammys.

Mr. Corigliano will discuss the relationship between music and film, providing an overview of the scoring process and describing how music contributes to the overall effect of a film, propelling its story and creating a specific emotional response in the viewer. He will talk about his experiences in writing the scores of "Altered States," "Revolution," and "The Red Violin" and share anecdotes about working with Hollywood directors and producers. Film clips will be shown and the discussion will include an audience Q&A.

\n

This event is part of Mr. Corigliano's weeklong residency in the MSU College of Music that will be capped off with a concert on Saturday, April 24, featuring his modern masterpieces The Red Violin Caprices, Circus Maximus, and Pied Piper Fantasy.

Examples include variables that are nonnegative and take on the value zero for a nontrivial fraction of the population (such as charitable contributions) and fractional responses that may take on the values zero and/or one with positive probability. In addition to summarizing the pros and cons of linear models, we will cover Tobit models - without and with endogenous explanatory variables - as well as two-part or hurdle models. Applications to charitable contributions and labor supply will be illustrated using STATA. Registration begins February 1, 2010.

The issue of identity is present in many artworks created during this ongoing period. Identity is important in considering contemporary African Art because its definitions are ambiguous at best. For years, African artists have been trying to find an aesthetic that fits with their own cultural ideals without adhering to an "African" Stereotype. This show will attempt to uncover the motivations and complexities African identities and the works produced by them. Artists featured in this exhibit demonstrate the diversity and complexity that make up contemporary African art and identity. \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Valeri VanDeVusse\n Contact email: vandevu1@msu.edu\n LOCATION:Kresge Art Museum END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20100424T230000Z UID:1253123392857-0015@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

Beguiling Theatrical Magic!" hails the New York Post for the breathtaking new production of Rodgers & Hammerstein's SOUTH PACIFIC. A stunning reinvention produced by Lincoln Center Theatre, SOUTH PACIFIC swept the 2008 Tony wards, winning seven honors including Best Music Revival and Best Director for Bartlett Sher. Set on a tropical island during World War II, the musical tells the sweeping romantic story of two couples and how their happiness is threatened by the realities of war and by their own prejudices. the beloved score's songs include "Some Enchanted Evenin," "I'm Gonna Wash That Man Right Outta My Hair," "This Nearly Was Mine" and "Ther is Nothin' Like a Dame." USA Today cheers, "Gorgeous! SOUTH PACIFIC doesn't just float; it soars!" Based on James Michener's Pulitzer Prize winning book Tales of the South Pacific, Rodgers & Hammerstein's SOUTH PACIFIC has music by Richard Rodgers, lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II and a book by Oscar Hammerstein II and Joshua Logan.\n \n Day Time\n Tuesday, April 27 7:30pm\n Wednesday, April 38 7:30pm\n Thursday, April 29 7:30pm\n Friday April 30 8:00pm\n Saturday, May 1 2:00 PM\n Saturday, May 1 8:00 PM\n Sunday, May 2 1:00 PM\n Sunday, May 2 6:30 PM\n \n \n\n Price: $31.50 - $67.50\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://whartoncenter.com\n Contact name: Bob Hoffman\n Contact phone: 517-432-2000\n Contact email: hoffma95@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.whartoncenter.com\n LOCATION:Wharton Center: Cobb Great Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20100503T040000Z UID:1172006459344-0001@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Academic DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20100503 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20100504 SUMMARY:Final Exams DESCRIPTION: Final exams for spring semester 2010 are scheduled for May 3-7.\n\n Sponsor: Registrar\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.reg.msu.edu/\n Contact phone: (517) 355-3300\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.reg.msu.edu/ROInfo/Calendar/FinalExam.asp\n END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20100503T040000Z UID:1260285594183-0107@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

The special exhibition "Dear Mr. Mandela... Mrs. Parks: Children's Letters, Global Lessons" opened in July 2008 at the Nelson Mandela National Museum in Mthatha, South Africa, Mandela's birthplace in the Eastern Cape Province.\n \n That exhibition is still on view in South Africa, and now a U.S. version comes to the Michigan State University Museum. The inspiration for "Dear Mr. Mandela... Mrs. Parks" came from the hundreds of children around the world who have written letters to two individuals--Nelson Mandela of South Africa and the late Rosa Parks of the United States--who are internationally known for their work in human rights. The letters reveal why children revere Mandela and Parks and also young people's desires for guidance and understanding about life. \n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: MSU Museum\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu/\n Contact phone: 517-432-2370\n Contact email: pr@museum.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu/\n LOCATION:MSU Museum - Main Gallery END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20100730T040000Z UID:1260286282826-0188@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

Mrs. Parks: Children's Letters, Global Lessons" opened in July 2008 at the Nelson Mandela National Museum in Mthatha, South Africa, Mandela's birthplace in the Eastern Cape Province.\n \n That exhibition is still on view in South Africa, and now a U.S. version comes to the Michigan State University Museum. The inspiration for "Dear Mr. Mandela... Mrs. Parks" came from the hundreds of children around the world who have written letters to two individuals--Nelson Mandela of South Africa and the late Rosa Parks of the United States--who are internationally known for their work in human rights. The letters reveal why children revere Mandela and Parks and also young people's desires for guidance and understanding about life. \n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: MSU Museum\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu/\n Contact phone: 517-432-2370\n Contact email: pr@museum.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu/\n LOCATION:MSU Museum - Main Gallery END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20100823T040000Z UID:1260286282826-0212@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

A number of software facilities for data management are initially discussed and illustrated on empirical data. Some relatively simple statistical analyses are then dealt with, including optimal search for variable transformation to near normality, frequency tables and analysis of variance,which are similarly exemplified with the use of data from several studies. The widely used multiple regression analysis is then focused on and illustrated on empirical data from an environmental study. The workshop is built on empirical illustration of each discussed command, and the associated output is discussed. The goal of the workshop is to motivate its attendees to consider using STATA in their own research as highly versatile and user-friendly modern statistical software, which offers rich statistical analysis options and output information at the cost of short and intuitive commands.

Evered & Emine O. Evered, Department of Geography & Department of History.\n \n "In the early Turkish republic of the 1920s, population was a central question of concern for the Kemalist state as its leadership dealt with not merely its geopolitical or nationalistic dimensions but also contemplated its economic consequence. In this context, state responses to socio-political matters such as public health revealed themselves to be entirely consistent with critical theories of governance and political economy. This presentation focuses on how a demographic discourse concerning population--in terms both numeric and medical--provided a basis for emerging programs in public health and confronting the very real threats posed by disease. Employing the example of the nascent republic's anti-malarial campaigns, this study thus examines the discursive, cartographic, and legislative measures employed in combating this prevalent disease in wider contexts of nation-building. In doing so, it traces one vital trajectory of the development of governmentality (i.e., public health) in the case of Turkey from the 1920s through the post-war era when infusions of foreign aid and the incorporation of DDT altered substantially the means of confronting malaria, but not the population.In the early Turkish republic of the 1920s, population was a central question of concern for the Kemalist state as its leadership dealt with not merely its geopolitical or nationalistic dimensions but also contemplated its economic consequence.

Poor nutritional status is evident in children even when parents meet their daily dietary requirements. Recently, investigators postulate a linkage between women's autonomy and child health, particularly in countries such as India whee mothers play a vital role in childcare. This talk presents results from a study embedded in a randomized educational intervention trial to improve infant feeding behaviors among a rural population in the state of Andthra Prades, India. We investigate teh influence of maternal autonomy on child feeding and child nutritional status through a mix-methodological approach. We also explore local perceptions and beliefs, regarding women's autonomy as well as the influence of environmental factors, such as income and family structure, on infant feeding practices. \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Asian Studies Center\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://asianstudies.msu.edu\n Contact phone: 517-353-1680\n LOCATION:E-4 East Fee Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20100916T161500Z UID:1272306297776@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Public Programs DTSTART:20100916T161500Z DTEND:20100916T173000Z SUMMARY:"Our Daily Work / Our Daily Lives" Brown Bag DESCRIPTION: This week's presentation, "'A Very, Very Wide Influence, Even When...Dead': The Early ANC and Black Workers in South Africa before World War II," presented by Peter Limb, MSU History Department and MSU Library.

Micro credit loans are used in a carefully calculated manner by activists to create a community of women who are viewed as powerful participants in the anti-witch hunt campaign in the area. Economic ties create social capacity that is intentionally directed toward mobilization for social change. Specifically, we focus on the following problem: How does a movement cohere and persist in pursuing two very disparate goals? Why would women, who participate in the non-contentious and low risk micro-credit schemes for improving the livelihood of their individual households, be motivated enough to undertake the risks and social costs associated with mobilizing against witch hunts that are spearheaded by men, and in which powerful social and political forces in the community are often complicit? Also, the tea plantation is in a community with a long standing tradition of witch hunts. This is fueled by local beliefs in the existence of witches, the divining powers of the witch doctor, and the desperate need of impoverished and illiterate individuals to make sense of mysterious, often life-threatening ailments that are commonplace given the lack of medical facilities. Our findings suggest that the women not only continued to coalesce around the micro-credit enterprise, they also participated in the anti-witch hunt campaign. While they have not always been able to collectively rally to save the women accused as "witches", they have intervened in many instances to produce some remarkable victories for the movement.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Asian Studies Center\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://asianstudies.msu.edu\n Contact phone: 517-353-1680\n LOCATION:201 International Center END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20100917T170000Z UID:1281454351590@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20100917T170000Z DTEND:20100917T200000Z SUMMARY:Center for Statistical Training Consulting Workshop: Basic Data Analysis Using SPSS DESCRIPTION: This workshop, presented by Dr. Sandra Herman, Former Associate Director of CSTAT, will provide an overview of the statistical test choices, variable creation and transformation, and output interpretation using SPSS.

The inspiration for "Dear Mr. Mandela... Mrs. Parks" came from the hundreds of children around the world who have written letters to two individuals--Nelson Mandela of South Africa and the late Rosa Parks of the United States--who are internationally known for their work in human rights. The letters reveal why children revere Mandela and Parks and also young people's desires for guidance and understanding about life. \n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: MSU Museum\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu/\n Contact phone: 517-432-2370\n Contact email: pr@museum.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu/\n LOCATION:MSU Museum - Main Gallery END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20100922T040000Z UID:1260286282826-0242@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

The special exhibition "Dear Mr. Mandela... Mrs. Parks: Children's Letters, Global Lessons" opened in July 2008 at the Nelson Mandela National Museum in Mthatha, South Africa, Mandela's birthplace in the Eastern Cape Province.\n \n That exhibition is still on view in South Africa, and now a U.S. version comes to the Michigan State University Museum. The inspiration for "Dear Mr. Mandela... Mrs. Parks" came from the hundreds of children around the world who have written letters to two individuals--Nelson Mandela of South Africa and the late Rosa Parks of the United States--who are internationally known for their work in human rights. The letters reveal why children revere Mandela and Parks and also young people's desires for guidance and understanding about life. \n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: MSU Museum\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu/\n Contact phone: 517-432-2370\n Contact email: pr@museum.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu/\n LOCATION:MSU Museum - Main Gallery END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20100924T040000Z UID:1260286282826-0244@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

The special exhibition "Dear Mr. Mandela... Mrs. Parks: Children's Letters, Global Lessons" opened in July 2008 at the Nelson Mandela National Museum in Mthatha, South Africa, Mandela's birthplace in the Eastern Cape Province.\n \n That exhibition is still on view in South Africa, and now a U.S. version comes to the Michigan State University Museum. The inspiration for "Dear Mr. Mandela... Mrs. Parks" came from the hundreds of children around the world who have written letters to two individuals--Nelson Mandela of South Africa and the late Rosa Parks of the United States--who are internationally known for their work in human rights. The letters reveal why children revere Mandela and Parks and also young people's desires for guidance and understanding about life. \n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: MSU Museum\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu/\n Contact phone: 517-432-2370\n Contact email: pr@museum.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu/\n LOCATION:MSU Museum - Main Gallery END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20101005T040000Z UID:1260286282826-0255@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

Man-sik and Yeon-hee, are unsure as to whether they can overcome past wounds and continue being a couple. Dr. Kim, who cautions against a possible mega-tsunami at Haeundae, collapses in agony springing from an unexpected turn-up of his daughter and divorced wife. Hyoung-sik, after rescuing a woman from Seoul, rides out a ferocious storm to gladden her heart. A tsunami which destroys Haeundae symbolizes the establishment of a typical axis called provocation of conflicts, and later the inner spaces of the couples without anything left behind after all conflicts have ended.

The exhibition will showcase examples of birds from MSU Museum collections, including many species that Darwin encountered in Patagonia; the domestic pigeon and chicken breeds that he studied while he was investigating artificial selection, and a Michigan example of adaptive radiation among finches.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: MSU Museum\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu/\n Contact phone: 517-355-2370\n Contact email: pr@museum.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu/\n LOCATION:MSU Museum - West Gallery END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20101010T040000Z UID:1280154130318-0003@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20101010 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20101011 SUMMARY:Unpacking Collections: The Legacy of Cuesta Benberry A Symposium on Using Quilt History Collections DESCRIPTION: Michigan State University Museum announces a major event this fall: "Unpacking Collections: The Legacy of Cuesta Benberry and a Symposium on Using Quilt History Collections," to explore the connections between using collections in making or studying quilts.\n \n The symposium is set for Oct. 8-10, 2010 in East Lansing, Mich., and is planned in conjunction with an exhibition that showcases examples of materials from the Cuesta Benberry Quilt History Collections that were recently acquired by the MSU Museum.\n Scholars and creative artists use private and public collections of objects and archival materials to inform their work. What do they collect? Where do they find collections and how exactly do they use them? What do they do with the collections when they are done? How have they been inspired by collections? What obstacles do they encounter when building or using collections? These questions and more will be explored in the MSU Museum symposium.\n\n Price: regular: $125, early bird: $95 \n Sponsor: MSU Museum\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu/Events/cbsymposium/\n Contact name: Beth Donaldson\n Contact phone: 517 432-3800\n Contact email: donald20@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu/Events/cbsymposium/\n LOCATION:MSU Museum END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20101010T140000Z UID:1282420091086@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

The special exhibition "Dear Mr. Mandela... Mrs. Parks: Children's Letters, Global Lessons" opened in July 2008 at the Nelson Mandela National Museum in Mthatha, South Africa, Mandela's birthplace in the Eastern Cape Province.\n \n That exhibition is still on view in South Africa, and now a U.S. version comes to the Michigan State University Museum. The inspiration for "Dear Mr. Mandela... Mrs. Parks" came from the hundreds of children around the world who have written letters to two individuals--Nelson Mandela of South Africa and the late Rosa Parks of the United States--who are internationally known for their work in human rights. The letters reveal why children revere Mandela and Parks and also young people's desires for guidance and understanding about life. \n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: MSU Museum\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu/\n Contact phone: 517-432-2370\n Contact email: pr@museum.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu/\n LOCATION:MSU Museum - Main Gallery END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20101022T040000Z UID:1285695454054@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:International Events (Study Abroad, ...)

The inspiration for "Dear Mr. Mandela... Mrs. Parks" came from the hundreds of children around the world who have written letters to two individuals--Nelson Mandela of South Africa and the late Rosa Parks of the United States--who are internationally known for their work in human rights. The letters reveal why children revere Mandela and Parks and also young people's desires for guidance and understanding about life. \n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: MSU Museum\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu/\n Contact phone: 517-432-2370\n Contact email: pr@museum.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu/\n LOCATION:MSU Museum - Main Gallery END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20101028T113000Z UID:1287140752393-0003@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20101028T113000Z DTEND:20101028T193000Z SUMMARY:Surplus Plant Sale DESCRIPTION: Fall is a great time for planting.

DESCRIPTION: Great Lakes Bioenergy Research Center: Making Biofuels an Economic Reality.
More than 100 MSU faculty and staff are collaborating with the University of Wisconsin and other partners on the Great Lakes Bioenergy Research Center, a 5-year grant from the U.S. Department of Energy to do fundamental research on biofuels.
Our focus is on identifying and solving the bottlenecks in converting lignocellulosic materials (agricultural debris, wood, etc.) into liquid transportation fuels (especially ethanol). The research spans identification of plant genes that control cell wall biosynthesis, chemical and enzymatic treatments that release sugars (such as glucose) from plant cell walls, and fermentation of these sugars into fuels (ethanol, but also butanol and diesel substitutes). A major research emphasis, based at the Kellogg Biological Station, explores the economic, agronomic, ecological, and environmental impacts of a future biofuel economy.

You rate me. Should we do so publicly?\n \n She is an expert in social network analysis, and has developed new techniques for network analysis and applied them to many topics including knowledge sharing networks, Q&A sites, questions about information diffusion, motivations and incentives for participation, and political blogs.\n \n Lada A. Adamic is an associate professor in the School of Information at the University of Michigan. She is also affiliated with the Center for the Study of Complex Systems and EECS.

The inspiration for "Dear Mr. Mandela... Mrs. Parks" came from the hundreds of children around the world who have written letters to two individuals--Nelson Mandela of South Africa and the late Rosa Parks of the United States--who are internationally known for their work in human rights. The letters reveal why children revere Mandela and Parks and also young people's desires for guidance and understanding about life. \n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: MSU Museum\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu/\n Contact phone: 517-432-2370\n Contact email: pr@museum.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu/\n LOCATION:MSU Museum - Main Gallery END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20101108T050000Z UID:1286226005718-0008@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

The inspiration for "Dear Mr. Mandela... Mrs. Parks" came from the hundreds of children around the world who have written letters to two individuals--Nelson Mandela of South Africa and the late Rosa Parks of the United States--who are internationally known for their work in human rights. The letters reveal why children revere Mandela and Parks and also young people's desires for guidance and understanding about life. \n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: MSU Museum\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu/\n Contact phone: 517-432-2370\n Contact email: pr@museum.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu/\n LOCATION:MSU Museum - Main Gallery END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20101111T050000Z UID:1286226005718-0011@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

Workshop outcomes will provide the foundation for a larger follow-up grant proposal to NSF to create a basic understanding of the supply chain for nano-biosensors in animal agricultural, and to anticipate their potential social / ethical dimensions so as to socially inform nano-biosensor technologies as they mature. The primary research activities emerging from these efforts will include broader stakeholder workshops involving a range of actors who are potentially impacted by nano-biosensors at different levels of the supply chain. Understanding and anticipating these dimensions will help to ensure that whatever applications emerge are: (1) morally acceptable and desirable with regard to implementation, information handling, and privacy; (2) fair to vulnerable parties; and (3) worthy of public trust. This brown bag seminar convenes the multi-disciplinary project team in an open round table discussion of major issues to be covered in a project white paper to inform future substantive directions and methodological approaches associated with this project. Discussants will explore potentially contrasting public perceptions of risk associated with similar applications of nano-biosensors in human medicine and public health, with an eye toward developing a mutually informative framework for addressing risk narratives surrounding nano-biosensor applications in both animal agriculture and human health sectors.\n The university community and general public are encouraged to attend this event to hear about this and future project related activities. \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Amy Rusnell\n Contact phone: 517-432-1230\n Contact email: rusnell@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://cs3.msu.edu/events\n LOCATION:Olds Hall, Room 109 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20101111T210000Z UID:1284064377274@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20101111T210000Z DTEND:20101112T045900Z SUMMARY:Enhancing Analysis of Genome Wide Association Studies with Gene Ontology Gene Sets DESCRIPTION: Epidemiology Seminar presented by guest speaker Daniel J.

This policy, which coincided directly with Tanzania's change from African socialism to a more free market economic and political approach, has led to a generational gap between scholars who came into the University in the earlier years and newer scholars who were recruited, trained, and employed after the hiring freeze ended. This presentation will contrast and compare the experiences of these generations of Tanzanian scholars with an eye towards understanding the unique challenges faced by the newest generation who find themselves caught between the remnants of a post-colonial socialist intellectual tradition and an increasingly globalized academy.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: International Studies and Programs\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://isp.msu.edu\n Contact name: Amy Jamison\n Contact phone: 517-353-5040\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.gencen.msu.edu\n LOCATION:201 International Center END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20101112T190000Z UID:1288886170821@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20101112T190000Z DTEND:20101112T210000Z SUMMARY:Elder HeART Tours DESCRIPTION: For People Living with Memory Loss, Alzheimer's Disease & Dementia, and Those Who Care for Them.

Sample size considerations for the comparisons of two means or two proportions will be tied to the trial design and analysis strategies (covariance adjustment, repeated measures, cluster randomization). We will also consider sample size issues in exploratory developmental research projects (NIH R21 mechanism) versus larger projects (NIH R01 mechanism). Superiority, non-inferiority and equivalence clinical trial designs will be considered for studies comparing treatment to control, or treatment to another treatment. The implementation of sample size calculations in GPower and SAS software will be illustrated.

More about Panayis Lyras

\n Featuring the music of Robert Schumann, this program will include the brilliant and fiery Sonata in G minor, Op. 22, and the colorful Carnaval, Op. 9. Proclaimed by Franz Liszt as "one of the greatest works I know," Carnaval is a series of vignettes, a masked ball in which one character after another takes center stage. Schumann's imagination is in full bloom as his alter egos (Florestan and Eusebius) encounter his two loves (Clara and Ernestine), along with clowns, harlequins, Chopin, and Paganini. \n\n Price: Regular ticket prices: $10 for adults, $8 for senior citizens, free for students.\n Sponsor: College of Music\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.music.msu.edu\n LOCATION:Music Building Auditorium END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20101207T003000Z UID:1283521469007-0013@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20101207T003000Z DTEND:20101207T020000Z SUMMARY:Respecting Individuals On Neutral Grounds DESCRIPTION: Price: free\n Sponsor: RING\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://lbgtrc.msu.edu\n Contact name: Ross Kraynak\n Contact email: ringmsu@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.facebook.com/search/?flt=1&q=transaction&o=65&s=30#!/group.php?gid=2201948319&v=info&ref=\n LOCATION:C201 Snyder Phillips Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20101207T050000Z UID:1258986802870-0367@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

The special exhibition "Dear Mr. Mandela... Mrs. Parks: Children's Letters, Global Lessons" opened in July 2008 at the Nelson Mandela National Museum in Mthatha, South Africa, Mandela's birthplace in the Eastern Cape Province.\n \n That exhibition is still on view in South Africa, and now a U.S. version comes to the Michigan State University Museum. The inspiration for "Dear Mr. Mandela... Mrs. Parks" came from the hundreds of children around the world who have written letters to two individuals--Nelson Mandela of South Africa and the late Rosa Parks of the United States--who are internationally known for their work in human rights. The letters reveal why children revere Mandela and Parks and also young people's desires for guidance and understanding about life. \n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: MSU Museum\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu/\n Contact phone: 517-432-2370\n Contact email: pr@museum.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu/\n LOCATION:MSU Museum - Main Gallery END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20101209T050000Z UID:1290179615453-0011@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

Exploratory factor analysis represents a set of multivariate techniques used to examine large correlation and covariance matrices. The techniques are typically used to reduce the dimensionality present in a large set of multivariate data (e.g., image filtering) or to identify the structure underlying a set of variables (e.g., psychometric and scale development). \n \n This workshop will cover both common factor and principle component approaches to modeling covariance matrices. Methods for determining the number of factors (latent variables) that best represent the underlying structure of a covariance matrix will be described. \n \n Common rotation methods used to improve the interpretability of the underlying factor structure will be presented and guidelines for use will be described. Methods for computing scores on the latent factors will be reviewed. \n \n After describing the modeling issues, a hands-on exercise using human response data will be used to demonstrate the inferences that may be supported using this set of techniques.\n \n\n Price: Free to Graduate Students, Faculty and Research Staff\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Dr. Brian Silver\n Contact phone: 517-353-9288\n Contact email: bsilver@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.cstat.msu.edu/services/workshops/workshop.aspx?id=1550\n LOCATION:106 Farrall Agricultural Engineering Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20110128T210000Z UID:1295452728125@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20110128T210000Z DTEND:20110128T220000Z SUMMARY:January 28 - Geological Sciences Seminar Series DESCRIPTION:

DESCRIPTION: \n Peilei Fan, Assistant Professor of Urban and Regional Planning, Michigan State University\n \n Rapid urbanization in the developing world calls for attention to address the issue of urban sustainability, especially in emerging countries such as China, where social equity and environmental conditions have been marginalized by the rapid economic development. In this seminar, I will introduce our work in addressing this issue. First, we will answer the following questions: (1) How did the sustainability of Chinese cities evolve over time? (2) What are the driving forces for the evolution? By constructing a composite index that incorporates three major aspects of sustainability, economy, environment, and social equity, we characterized the recent evolution of Chinese cities and assessed the disparity among regions in terms of the sustainability measures. Further, we analyzed the driving forces for the change of sustainability indices through a driving force-pressure-state-effect model. We substantiated our numerical analysis of Chinese cities with a detailed case study of Urumqi, the capital of Xinjiang Autonomous Region, which has experienced significant change over the past three decades in every aspect of sustainability. We highlight some fundamental socioeconomic driving forces that have caused spatial restructuring, reflected by land-use change, and consequently impacted the urban environment of Urumqi. A brief case analysis of Guangzhou is also provided. Finally, I will introduce some of our on-going research that examines the urban sustainability under future climate change, using Urumqi and Shanghai as cases.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Asian Studies Center\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://asianstudies.msu.edu/\n Contact email: guochen@msu.edu\n LOCATION:207/208 Eustace-Cole Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20110131T211000Z UID:1295884040735@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20110131T211000Z DTEND:20110131T221000Z SUMMARY:Complex Materials Seminar DESCRIPTION: Complex Materials Seminar presented by Dr. Stefan T.

In order to expand rights for women, feminist groups strategically emphasized gender difference (reproduction, caregiving) as critical to national wartime interests. This shift in mainstream feminism ultimately redefined the relationship between woman and nation until the end of the Fifteen Year War (1931-45).\n In this talk I focus on one of the most popular novels of the 1930s, _The Husband's Chastity_ (1936-37) by Yoshiya Nobuko. By exploring issues such as chastity and motherhood, the novel profoundly engages with questions of gender equality and difference, of vital interest to both feminists and society at large. This popular work examines critical ideas surrounding sexuality and gender identity and provides an important window into complex views of social progress in mid to late 1930s Japan.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Asian Studies Center\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://asianstudies.msu.edu\n Contact phone: 517-353-1680\n LOCATION:303 International Center END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20110201T213000Z UID:1295575133851@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Academic DTSTART:20110201T213000Z DTEND:20110201T223000Z SUMMARY:Information Meeting on Study Abroad in: INDIA DESCRIPTION: \n "Ecology of the Mountains"\n \n Summer 2011 information session on study abroad.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: International Studies and Programs\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://isp.msu.edu\n LOCATION:130 Natural Resources END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20110202T000000Z UID:1294921738248@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20110202T000000Z DTEND:20110202T020000Z SUMMARY:Library Film Series - The Revenger's Tragedy DESCRIPTION: From the director of Repo Man, a post-apocalyptic vision of a blood-drenched Jacobean classic.

Haywood\n \n Neurotrauma afflicts millions annually, and is the major cause of death and disability among young people (16-45 y.o.). Currently there is no medically effective treatment for traumatic brain injury (TBI); clinical trials have failed to improve functional outcomes in victims of TBI. We are studying arachidonic acid (ArA) metabolism after its release from damaged cell membranes to better understand the intrinsic and extrinsic inflammatory responses of the brain after injury. ArA is oxidized by molecular oxygen to a family of compounds known as eicosanoids. Eicosanoid activities are diverse, often acting through 7-transmembrane domain G-protein coupled receptors. Cyclooxygenases (COX1, COX2), lipoxygenases, and epoxygenases catalyze the conversion of ArA to eicosanoids. Over 50 naturally occurring biologically active eicosanoids have been identified in mammals that demonstrate potent vasoactive, inflammatory, neurophysiologic, and gene regulatory functions. However, in many cases eicosanoid activities have not been well defined, particularly in the brain. Some of these molecules, including ArA itself, have specific neural activities that differ from peripheral organ systems. Some of the challenges in studying eicosanoid activities in the brain are their trace levels and local function. With peak levels in the parts per billion range, studies in decades past have focused on hemispheric or global changes, but have not been able to quantify eicosanoids in discrete brain regions. Many of the eicosanoids, particularly the epoxides (EETs) are exceptionally labile and, in the presence of oxygen, are immediately converted to far less active dihydroxy (DiHETE) metabolites. These reactions can be spontaneous, or catalyzed by enzymes including epoxide hydrolases, cyclooxygenases, and prostaglandin dehydrogenases.\n To date, we have studied the regulation and function of COX2 in several experiments that show it promotes neuroinflammatory processes and neural cell death. In a rat model of unilateral brain injury, COX2 is dysregulated in the first week after TBI in both the hippocampus (bilaterally) and the injured cerebral cortex. These regions have been associated with several of the functional deficits evident after neurotrauma in humans, e.g., retrograde amnesia, learning and memory problems, and proprioceptive dysfunction. Interestingly, inhibition of COX2 enzyme activity using selective (and less selective) pharmacologic agents improves recovery of function, and reduces inflammation and neural cell loss, as well. Unfortunately, COX2 inhibitors have suffered a setback in clinical utility; unacceptably severe cardiovascular adverse effects have been identified, particularly with long term use.\n More recently, our studies have refocused on the metabolism of ArA via other metabolic routes, particularly to epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs) and hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acids (HETEs). To this end, we have developed ultrasensitive chromatographic methods to quantify eicosanoids in small tissue samples, and have begun to characterize the dynamic regulation of the cytochrome P450 epoxygenases that catalyze the synthesis of EETs and HETEs. Recent studies of the injured brain have revealed brain region-specific changes of enzymes that catalyze eicosanoid formation and metabolism, as well as the quantification of brain level changes for over 20 eicosanoids. Currently, novel eicosanoid analogs are being tested in a behavioral pharmacology paradigm towards the development of potentially effective treatments to improve functional recovery after TBI. Moreover, we are testing novel molecular strategies to effect local blockades of induced COX2 activity in the injured brain in an effort to avoid the adverse side-effects of COX2 inhibitors.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Dept of Pharmacology & Toxicology\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://phmtox.msu.edu\n Contact name: Diane Hummel\n Contact phone: 353-9616\n Contact email: phm@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://phmtox.msu.edu/events/pdf/Strauss--Flyer.pdf\n LOCATION:B448-49 Life Sciences Building END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20110209T170000Z UID:1296849112609@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20110209T170000Z DTEND:20110209T180000Z SUMMARY:2014 Committee for Community Outreach Meeting DESCRIPTION: This meeting will serve primarily as an introduction to the newly formed Community Outreach Committee.

I will describe how I would recommend the Center for Gender in Global Context should proceed in building strategic partnerships with gender scholars at Bogazici and Istanbul Universities.

Multidimensional scaling (MDS) tries to accomplish exactly that objective. To be more precise, MDS produces a map of stimuli, based upon information about the proximities among those stimuli. \n \n Multidimensional scaling methods have many potential applications in empirical research. They can be used to: simplify the contents of large, complex datasets; model similarities among sets of objects; estimate the cognitive structures underlying survey responses; and optimize the measurement characteristics of qualitative observations. MDS can be generalized to show individual differences across distinct data sources (e..g, subsets of survey respondents or data collected at different time points). It also can be adapted to represent respondent preferences among a set of stimuli (so-called ideal points models). \n \n Specific topics to be covered in the short course include: The basic idea of MDS; the general estimation procedure; interpretation of results; different varieties of MDS; and software options for performing MDS analyses. These lectures are intended for a general audience. They do not assume any prior experience with MDS or familiarity with advanced statistical methods (i.e., beyond basic regression analysis).\n \n\n Price: Free to Graduate Students, Faculty and Research Staff\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Dr. Brian Silver\n Contact phone: 517-353-9288\n Contact email: bsilver@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.cstat.msu.edu/services/workshops/workshop.aspx?id=1570\n LOCATION:106 Farrall Agricultural Engineering Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20110211T183000Z UID:1296615499283@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Academic DTSTART:20110211T183000Z DTEND:20110211T200000Z SUMMARY:Hiroshima's Gendered Landscape and Americans as "Nobody" DESCRIPTION: This presentation explores Japanese Americans -- memories of the atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945.

As students at the local university, their story crosses the path of the first Gulf War. Events transpire and Nareen is separated from her family; she finds herself wandering the snowy mountains of Kurdistan, accompanied by her six-year-old brother.\n When she finally arrives at the refugee camp, she meets and befriends a female American journalist who will do her best to get her information about her lover, also lost in the ordeal of the massive evacuation of Kurds from their towns in northern Iraq.\n It is a love story in a land stripped of its very humanity. It is a story about a culture that is by and large unknown to the rest of the world. This is your gateway to the Muslim world, to Kurdistan, to Iraq, and to the heart of where civilization and humanity first met.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Asian Studies Center\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://asianstudies.msu.edu/\n LOCATION:TBD END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20110217T194500Z UID:1295633393308@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:International Events (Study Abroad, ...)

Pennock, Lyman Briggs College, the Philosophy Department, the Department of Computer Science, and the Ecology, Evolutionary Biology and Behavior graduate program, "Evolution in Action: Observing Evolutionary Processes in Real Time." \n Abstract: The common view of the general public about evolution is antiquated. Creationists continue to think that there is no evidence for evolution, but even members of the public who accept it often think that our scientific understanding of evolution comes just from fossils. Such confusions arise in part from a misunderstanding of the role of observation in scientific reasoning. This talk focuses on the nature of observational evidence and on recent advances in evolutionary modeling, using both natural and digital organisms, that have allowed scientists to directly investigate the mechanisms of evolution as they operate in the present.\n \n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: John Forsyth\n Contact email: FORSYTH@MSU.EDU\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://fod.msu.edu/FacEmeriti/lectures.asp\n LOCATION:Radiology Auditorium END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20110217T211000Z UID:1295301098754@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20110217T211000Z DTEND:20110217T223000Z SUMMARY:Chemistry Colloquium, Spring 2011 DESCRIPTION: Professor Zheng-Rong Lu, Case Western Reserve University, will present an organic colloquium titled "Novel MRI Contrast Agents for Molecular Imaging of Tumor Microenvironment."

The central mechanisms that underlie these abnormalities are poorly understood. We have previously observed that central nitric oxide (NO) mechanisms within the PVN that dictate sympathetic outflow are altered in HF. Subsequently, we determined that NO via a γ-amino butyric acid (GABA) mechanism, representing an inhibitory mechanism, is augmented in HF. Recently we uncovered enhanced excitatory mechanisms involving glutamatergic and angiotensinergic (also influenced by NO) within the PVN in HF. These data taken together suggest that altered inhibitory mechanisms involving NO and GABA and excitatory mechanisms involving glutamatergic and angiotensinergic pathways within the PVN (with interactions between the two mechanisms involving NO) may be involved in this sympatho-excitation. We have subsequently shown that; first, restoring the reduced levels of nNOS (using gene transfer) restores the blunted inhibitory mechanisms (NO/GABA) and ameliorates increased excitatory (glutamatergic) systems in the PVN; second, exercise training restores the levels of nNOS within the PVN and restores the enhanced sympathoexcitation observed in chronic heart failure. Understanding the role of central mechanisms, in the increased sympathetic neural drive will enhance our ability to treat the HF condition and its cardiovascular complications.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Dept of Pharmacology & Toxicology\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://phmtox.msu.edu\n Contact name: Diane Hummel\n Contact phone: 353-9616\n Contact email: phm@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://phmtox.msu.edu/events/pdf/PATEL--Flyer.pdf\n LOCATION:B448-49 Life Sciences Building END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20110223T200000Z UID:1284573469016@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20110223T200000Z DTEND:20110223T210000Z SUMMARY:Coffee Breaks too - Faculty fellowship opportunities DESCRIPTION: Learn about research proposal topics in 1-hour coffee breaks for mid-career faculty and other MSU faculty interested in funding their research \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Sierra VanDenHeuvel\n Contact phone: (517) 432-4499\n Contact email: vandenh8@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://forum.research.msu.edu/\n LOCATION:International Center Conference Rooms END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20110223T200000Z UID:1293113105646@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20110223T200000Z DTEND:20110223T210000Z SUMMARY:Organic Seminar/Department of Chemistry DESCRIPTION: Professor Tom Driver, University of Illinois - Chicago, will present an organic chemistry seminar on Wednesday, February 23, 2011.

The Institute of Medicine more specifically defined the importance of a large, prospective study for evaluating exposures and a broad spectrum of important health outcomes.

Continuing progress in basic and clinical pharmacology has contributed to efforts to understand the cellular and molecular mechanisms of anesthesia. For no molecule, however, do we understand the mechanisms that cause the loss of wakefulness and the onset of an anesthetic state. It has become clear that molecular actions at the lipid bilayer and/or on cell surface proteins can not explain the generation of anesthetic states. An alternative, heuristic model is that brain regions which evolved to generate naturally occurring states of sleep and wakefulness are preferentially involved in generating the physiological and behavioral traits that comprise states of anesthesia. This talk will highlight recent neurochemical evidence showing that brain regions and neurotransmitters know to regulate sleep and wakefulness are significantly altered by anesthetics.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Dept of Pharmacology & Toxicology\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://phmtox.msu.edu\n Contact name: Diane Hummel\n Contact phone: 353-9616\n Contact email: phm@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://phmtox.msu.edu/events/pdf/LYDIC--Flyer\n LOCATION:B448-49 Life Sciences Building END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20110302T200000Z UID:1293113318997@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20110302T200000Z DTEND:20110302T210000Z SUMMARY:Organic Seminar/Department of Chemistry DESCRIPTION: Professor Peter Andreana, Wayne State University, will present an organic chemistry seminar on Wednesday, March 2, titled - Entirely Carbohydrate Vaccine Constructs and their Application in Probing Glycoimmunology.

DESCRIPTION: The Department of Telecommunication, Information Studies & Media presents Jeff McWherter of Gravity Works as he discusses mobile application development. \n Mobile apps are the hottest trend in tech right now, leaving many companies struggling to create a mobile strategy for their products or services. When defining this strategy, the question of do I really need a mobile app is the first barrier that needs to be crossed.\n \n Deciding whether a mobile app is truly necessary is the first, and perhaps the most important decision. In this session, I will discuss why a company might truly need a custom mobile application, and when updating a portion of an existing web site to be mobile\n device-friendly may be the more appropriate solution.\n \n SEATS ARE LIMITED for this lunchtime seminar, so sign up now! http://www.eventbrite.com/event/1392347549\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Valeta Wensloff\n Contact email: wensloff@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://tism.msu.edu/event/tismtech-mobile-apps\n LOCATION:148 Communication Arts & Sciences END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20110328T170000Z UID:1297265887868@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20110328T170000Z DTEND:20110328T180000Z SUMMARY:3rd ANNUAL THEODORE M.

HAYWOOD\n A major goal in neuropharmacology is to devise disease-modifying therapies for chronic neurological disorders such as epilepsy. We are using large-scale transcriptional profiling of neurons thought to be involved in the process of epileptogenesis to suggest novel pathways and protein targets. We then use high throughput screening for small molecule modulators of these targets to develop new reagents that can be used to probe specific receptors in epilepsy-related pathways. The successes and challenges of this approach in academic laboratories will be discussed.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Dept of Pharmacology & Toxicology\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://phmtox.msu.edu\n Contact name: Diane Hummel\n Contact phone: 353-9616\n Contact email: phm@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://phmtox.msu.edu/events/pdf/Dingledine Flyer--2.pdf\n LOCATION:B448-49 Life Sciences Building END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20110328T200000Z UID:1323890974400@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20110328T200000Z DTEND:20110328T211500Z SUMMARY:Department of Chemistry Organic Seminar DESCRIPTION: Dilini Ratnayake, MSU, will present a Department of Chemistry Seminar on March 28.

Is there a divide between sex worker communities and respectable society in Kolkata? For male sex worker clients, this perception of difference seems to allow for the confirmation of a dominant masculinity, enactment of non-marital masculinities or the performance of a masculine abject. Yet, for sex workers, crossing the invisible divide out of the red light district into supposedly respectable society seems to confirm a system of a gendered and sexualized apartheid, where they frequently must pass or face violence.

DTSTART:20110402T010000Z DTEND:20110402T045900Z SUMMARY:MSU Opera Theatre and Symphony Orchestra presents The Grapes of Wrath by Ricky Ian Gordon DESCRIPTION:

Libretto by Michael Korie
\n Raphael Jimenez,conductor
\n Melanie Helton, director

\n

The Grapes of Wrath is Ricky Ian Gordon's monumental setting of John Steinbecks Pulitzer Prize-winning 1939 novel of the Dust Bowl. Particularly relevant today during Michigan's economic crisis, the opera tells the story of the Joad family, uprooted from their farm in Oklahoma and forced to journey to California in search of work. Part social commentary and part pure emotion, the opera combines a truly American musical palette with the soaring sound of operatic voices. Sung in English with English surtitles.
\n A preview lecture will be held 45 minutes before each performance. Reserved seating only.

Each of the players has brushed up on his "thee's" and "thou's" to bring you an evening of off-the-cuff comedy using the language and themes of William Shakespeare. Any hour could be filled with power struggles, star-crossed lovers, sprites, kings, queens, princesses, sword-playing, rhyming couplets, asides, insults, persons in disguise and all that we've come to expect from the pen of the Great Bard.

The talk will be held as a part of the Cognitive Science Distinguished Speaker Series.\n \n Abstract for talk: Male and female flies fight in same sex pairings. Some of the behavioral patterns seen during fights are the same in male and female flies: some are sex selective. The fruitless gene of the sex determination hierarchy plays a role in determining whether flies fight like males or females. Male flies establish hierarchical relationships while females do not. Learning and memory accompany the establishment of these relationships, and defeated flies develop a "loser mentality" in which they lose all second fights. Decision making of whether to court or fight in male flies depends on cues from primary senses, and also on the behavior of a second fly. As in other species, amines serve roles in multiple behaviors in flies. Using genetic methods, the function of single amine neurons can be altered, allowing definition of the behavioral functions served by these neurons. These and other topics will be covered in this seminar.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Jessica Gamache\n Contact email: gamache1@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://cogsci.msu.edu/DSS/2010-2011/Kravitz/\n LOCATION:118 Psychology END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20110404T230000Z UID:1297350111604-0004@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

Since 1996, Hindu nationalist activists have publicly declared that the work of India's most prominent modernist painter, M.F. Husain, offends their religious sensibilities. The success of this campaign hinges on the association of modernist art with secularism. Examining Husain alongside two of his contemporaries, Zitzewitz shows the range of possible manifestations of the link between art and secularism in contemporary India. \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Art & Art History\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.art.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Michelle Word\n Contact phone: (517)432-3961\n Contact email: wordmich@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.art.msu.edu\n LOCATION:108 Kresge Art Center END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20110405T000000Z UID:1300900720556@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20110405T000000Z DTEND:20110405T045900Z SUMMARY:Stretch Away Your Stress-Zumba DESCRIPTION: Price: FREE\n Sponsor: University Activities Board (UAB)\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.uabevents.com\n Contact name: University Activities Board\n Contact phone: 355-3354\n Contact email: uab@hfs.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.uabevents.com\n LOCATION:MSU Union Tower Room END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20110405T003000Z UID:1294848690159@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20110405T003000Z DTEND:20110405T023000Z SUMMARY:DAVID SEDARIS DESCRIPTION: David Sedaris shares another evening of wit and conversation with his newest book, Squirrel Seeks Chipmunk: A Modest Bestiary\n\n Price: $45.00, $35.00, $25.00\n Sponsor: WKAR\n Contact name: Wharton Center\n Contact phone: (517) 432-2000\n Contact email: wharton@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://whartoncenter.com/boxoffice/performance.aspx?pid=957\n LOCATION:Wharton Center's Cobb Great Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20110405T003000Z UID:1283521469007-0030@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20110405T003000Z DTEND:20110405T020000Z SUMMARY:Respecting Individuals On Neutral Grounds DESCRIPTION: Price: free\n Sponsor: RING\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://lbgtrc.msu.edu\n Contact name: Ross Kraynak\n Contact email: ringmsu@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.facebook.com/search/?flt=1&q=transaction&o=65&s=30#!/group.php?gid=2201948319&v=info&ref=\n LOCATION:C201 Snyder Phillips Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20110405T050000Z UID:1293638519197-0052@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

Blood donation practices sit at the nexus of individual, familial, cultural, state and even international systems of procurement and exchange. Based on ethnographic research in Shanghai and engaging debates in medical anthropology, bioethics, and Chinese studies, this paper explores the ways in which the blood donation practices in China today are both embedded in and transformative of exchange relations in multiple and overlapping contexts of donors, their families, co-workers, state and public health entities, and even broader transnational publics.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Asian Studies Center\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://asianstudies.msu.edu/\n LOCATION:303 International Center END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20110412T220000Z UID:1302104121510@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Athletics DTSTART:20110412T220000Z DTEND:20110413T035900Z SUMMARY:Baseball vs. Oakland (DH) Game 2 DESCRIPTION: Time/location subject to change.

While hostess work itself is a legal occupation in Japan, because there is no hostess visa, the boundary between legality and illegality becomes a complicated issue when migrants work as hostesses. In this presentation I investigate the blurred boundaries between the legality and illegality by considering the theoretical notion of "human security." My research is based upon my in-depth, long-term, multi-sited ethnographic field study involving participant observation working as a paid hostess at multiple nightclubs in 2000-2001 and follow-up research in 2008-2010 in Osaka, Nagoya, Tokyo, Fukuoka, and Seoul. It becomes evident that certain law is applied differently based upon gender and nationality. Such double standards contribute to shifting the legal boundaries. The law enforcement's intermittent, inconsistent handling of migrant workers further perpetuates the vicious cycle, which undermines the human security of migrant workers.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Asian Studies Center\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://asianstudies.msu.edu/\n LOCATION:201 International Center END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20110419T230000Z UID:1299718299747@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20110419T230000Z DTEND:20110420T010000Z SUMMARY:Creating Schools that Defend Rather than Destroy Community DESCRIPTION: Library Colloquia Series

The focus is on regression with cross-sectional data. Topics include a brief review of the assumptions used to conclude that ordinary least squares (OLS) has desirable statistical properties; how one confronts problems of multicollinearity; estimating and interpreting models with flexible functional forms (such as interaction terms); selection of regressors and proxy variables; using and interpreting linear regression with discrete outcomes; making inference robust to heteroskedasticity and cluster correlation; the pros and cons of weighted least squares versus OLS; linear regression and the estimation of average treatment effects.\n \n Examples will be shown using the software package Stata.

Few have looked into whether Chinese peasant families are redefining and adapting their fertility behaviors due to both their interaction with the state policy and their experience of the rapidly changing social and economic environments in reform-era China. Based on the recent ethnographic study in a central China village (2002-2010), this presentation seeks to explore new fertility trends that indicate the shift from "active resistance against" to "conscious decision for" the one-child limit among rural families. In particular, this study discusses the newly emerging social, economic, and demographic factors that may have played a role in this new fertility shift, and the social implications of this fertility shift to the central tenet of son preference in Chinese culture, changing parent-daughter relations, new marriage patterns among the cohorts impacted by birth control policy, and the challenge to the norm of child-rearing as a means of securing old age support among rural families.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Asian Studies Center\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://asianstudies.msu.edu/\n LOCATION:303 International Center END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20110426T200000Z UID:1302106510904@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Athletics DTSTART:20110426T200000Z DTEND:20110427T035900Z SUMMARY:Softball vs. Central Michigan DESCRIPTION: Time/location subject to change.

The film will be shown seven times in the period from Tuesday, April 26 to Saturday, April 30,with a special panel discussion following the first night's screening on April 26. Tickets will be available at the door for $7, $5 for seniors (65+), $3 for students.\n A description of the film: "Every spring, China's cities are plunged into chaos, as all at once, a tidal wave of humanity attempts to return home by train. It is the Chinese New Year. The wave is made up of millions of migrant factory workers. The homes they seek are the rural villages and families they left behind to seek work in the booming coastal cities. It is an epic spectacle that tells us much about China, a country discarding traditional ways as it hurtles towards modernity and global economic dominance.\n On Tuesday, April 26, we will have a special audience discussion following the film. A panel of faculty from MSU and UM familiar with Chinese workplace issues and culture will explore questions and issues raised by the film.\n The panel will include Peter Berg of MSU's School of Human Resources and Labor Relations; Hu Li of Nanjing University's School of Business and visiting professor in MSU's School of Human Resources and Labor Relations; and Zhang Yanjun, Professor of English, Southeast University, China/Visiting Scholar, MSU Global Studies in the Arts & Humanities.

It is the Chinese New Year. The wave is made up of millions of migrant factory workers. The homes they seek are the rural villages and families they left behind to seek work in the booming coastal cities. It is an epic spectacle that tells us much about China, a country discarding traditional ways as it hurtles towards modernity and global economic dominance.\n \n Last Train Home, an emotionally engaging and visually beautiful debut film from Chinese-Canadian director Lixin Fan, draws us into the fractured lives of a single migrant family caught up in this desperate annual migration. Sixteen years ago, the Zhangs abandoned their young children to find work in the city, consoled by the hope that their wages would lift their children into a better life. But in a bitter irony, the Zhangs' hopes for the future are undone by their very absence. Qin, the child they left behind, has grown into adolescence crippled by a sense of abandonment. In an act of teenage rebellion, she drops out of school. She too will become a migrant worker. The decision is a heartbreaking blow for the parents.\n \n In classic cinema verité style, Last Train Home follows the Zhangs' attempts to change their daughter's course and repair their ruptured family. Intimate and candid, the film paints a human portrait of the dramatic changes sweeping China. We identify with the Zhangs as they navigate through the stark and difficult choices of a society caught between old ways and new realities. Can they get ahead and still undo some of the damage that has been done to their family?\n \n Sponsored by MSU Asian Studies Center, Our Daily Work/Our Daily Lives and the MSU School of Human Resources and Labor Relations.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Asian Studies Center\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://asianstudies.msu.edu/\n LOCATION:See description END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20110428T000000Z UID:1302716037909@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20110428T000000Z DTEND:20110428T035900Z SUMMARY:Advance Screening: Winnie the Pooh (2011) DESCRIPTION: Price: FREE\n Sponsor: University Activities Board (UAB)\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.uabevents.com\n Contact name: University Activities Board\n Contact phone: 355-3354\n Contact email: uab@hfs.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.uabevents.com\n LOCATION:Wilson Auditorium END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20110428T040000Z UID:1293638519197-0075@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

It is the Chinese New Year. The wave is made up of millions of migrant factory workers. The homes they seek are the rural villages and families they left behind to seek work in the booming coastal cities. It is an epic spectacle that tells us much about China, a country discarding traditional ways as it hurtles towards modernity and global economic dominance.\n \n Last Train Home, an emotionally engaging and visually beautiful debut film from Chinese-Canadian director Lixin Fan, draws us into the fractured lives of a single migrant family caught up in this desperate annual migration. Sixteen years ago, the Zhangs abandoned their young children to find work in the city, consoled by the hope that their wages would lift their children into a better life. But in a bitter irony, the Zhangs' hopes for the future are undone by their very absence. Qin, the child they left behind, has grown into adolescence crippled by a sense of abandonment. In an act of teenage rebellion, she drops out of school. She too will become a migrant worker. The decision is a heartbreaking blow for the parents.\n \n In classic cinema verité style, Last Train Home follows the Zhangs' attempts to change their daughter's course and repair their ruptured family. Intimate and candid, the film paints a human portrait of the dramatic changes sweeping China. We identify with the Zhangs as they navigate through the stark and difficult choices of a society caught between old ways and new realities. Can they get ahead and still undo some of the damage that has been done to their family?\n \n Sponsored by MSU Asian Studies Center, Our Daily Work/Our Daily Lives and the MSU School of Human Resources and Labor Relations.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Asian Studies Center\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://asianstudies.msu.edu/\n LOCATION:See description END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20110428T230000Z UID:1302716260710@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Movie / Film DTSTART:20110428T230000Z DTEND:20110429T035900Z SUMMARY:Campus Center Cinemas DESCRIPTION: Price: Residence Hall students FREE, all others $2\n Sponsor: University Activities Board (UAB) and Residence Halls Assoc.

It is the Chinese New Year. The wave is made up of millions of migrant factory workers. The homes they seek are the rural villages and families they left behind to seek work in the booming coastal cities. It is an epic spectacle that tells us much about China, a country discarding traditional ways as it hurtles towards modernity and global economic dominance.\n \n Last Train Home, an emotionally engaging and visually beautiful debut film from Chinese-Canadian director Lixin Fan, draws us into the fractured lives of a single migrant family caught up in this desperate annual migration. Sixteen years ago, the Zhangs abandoned their young children to find work in the city, consoled by the hope that their wages would lift their children into a better life. But in a bitter irony, the Zhangs' hopes for the future are undone by their very absence. Qin, the child they left behind, has grown into adolescence crippled by a sense of abandonment. In an act of teenage rebellion, she drops out of school. She too will become a migrant worker. The decision is a heartbreaking blow for the parents.\n \n In classic cinema verité style, Last Train Home follows the Zhangs' attempts to change their daughter's course and repair their ruptured family. Intimate and candid, the film paints a human portrait of the dramatic changes sweeping China. We identify with the Zhangs as they navigate through the stark and difficult choices of a society caught between old ways and new realities. Can they get ahead and still undo some of the damage that has been done to their family?\n \n Sponsored by MSU Asian Studies Center, Our Daily Work/Our Daily Lives and the MSU School of Human Resources and Labor Relations.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Asian Studies Center\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://asianstudies.msu.edu/\n LOCATION:See description END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20110430T230000Z UID:1302716449049@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Movie / Film DTSTART:20110430T230000Z DTEND:20110501T035900Z SUMMARY:Campus Center Cinemas DESCRIPTION: The King's Speech\n Saturday\n Conrad Auditorium 7:00 p.m.\n \n I am Number Four\n Saturday\n 109 S Kedzie 7:00 & 9:15p.m.\n Conrad 9:00p.m.\n \n ELFS-The Last Train Home\n Saturday 107 S Kedzie 7:00 & 9:15 p.m.\n\n Price: Residence Hall students FREE, all others $2\n Sponsor: University Activities Board (UAB) and Residence Halls Assoc.

The workshop begins with a coherent introduction to the basics of the methodology, including model identification issues, implied covariance and mean structure, parameter estimation, robust maximum likelihood estimation, and model fit evaluation. Longitudinal data analysis is subsequently focused on, including issues pertaining to fitting unconditional and conditional (covariate based) models to data from repeated measure studies. Throughout the workshop, multiple use of numerical data and examples are utilized and the popular latent variable modeling program Mplus is employed. The workshop is geared toward graduate students and faculty from the social, behavioral, educational, biomedical and business sciences.\n\n Price: Free to Graduate Students, Faculty and Research Staff\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Dr. Brian Silver\n Contact phone: 517-353-9288\n Contact email: bsilver@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.cstat.msu.edu/services/workshops/workshop.aspx?id=1660\n LOCATION:106 Farrall Agricultural Engineering Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20110505T160000Z UID:1304359189827@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20110505T160000Z DTEND:20110505T170000Z SUMMARY:Providing a Secure Open Source Data Management Option for Clinical and Scientific Research DESCRIPTION: Dr. Viangteeravat is a candidate for the Associate Director Position at CTSI, \n Biomedical Research Informatics Core (BRIC)\n \n \n \n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://ctsi.msu.edu/events\n Contact name: Carla Rios\n Contact phone: 884-3540\n Contact email: riosc@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://ctsi.msu.edu/\n LOCATION:A131 East Fee END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20110505T200000Z UID:1302111165134@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Athletics DTSTART:20110505T200000Z DTEND:20110506T035900Z SUMMARY:Softball vs. Eastern Michigan DESCRIPTION: Time/location subject to change.

Family law is more dynamic than ever, with changing social definitions of family and greater use of science and technology to create families. Themes that have emerged during this time likely will inform family law reforms in the coming decades. The Midwest Family Law Consortium seeks papers that explore these issues and other hot topics for the 4th annual conference, which will be held June 16 and 17, 2011, at Michigan State University College of Law.\n \n While papers that address cutting-edge themes in family law are encouraged, all paper and panel proposals are welcomed. In addition, professors who wish to discuss techniques and insights concerning family law education are welcome to submit proposals for a teaching panel or panels.\n \n Interested persons should submit a one-page proposal with the name, title, and institutional affiliation of the presenter(s) and a brief summary of the proposed presentation to Cynthia Lee Starnes, the Lizzie J. McSweeney Professor of Family Law at MSU College of Law, at starnesc@law.msu.edu. Proposals submitted before January 31, 2011, will be given priority consideration.\n \n The conference will begin with an opening reception and dinner on Thursday, June 16, 2011. Conference sessions will be held on Friday, June 17, and will conclude by 5:00 p.m.\n \n The Midwest Family Law Consortium is an organization of law schools whose members collaborate to advance family law scholarship and teaching. Founded by the family law faculty of the University of Missouri - Kansas City School of Law, William Mitchell College of Law, and Indiana University School of Law - Indianapolis, with additional sponsoring members Michigan State University College of Law and Washburn University School of Law, the consortium is open to any law school, but primarily serves the Midwest region.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Sally Rice\n Contact phone: 517-432-6955\n Contact email: events@law.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.law.msu.edu/familylaw/index.html\n LOCATION:MSU College of Law END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20110617T040000Z UID:1293638519197-0125@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

At the end of May, one star exploded in the spiral galaxy M51, also known as the Whirlpool Galaxy. In late August, a second star exploded in M101, the Pinwheel Galaxy . Both exploding stars became bright enough to see in small telescopes, but the type of explosions was different in each case. The supernova in M51 might mark the death of a massive star. The supernova in M101 might indicate the death of a low mass star in a binary star system. What do we know, suspect, and not know at all about these relatively nearby stellar explosions?\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Physics Astronomy\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.pa.msu.edu/abrams\n Contact name: Mary Gowans\n Contact phone: 517-355-4676\n Contact email: gowans@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.pa.msu.edu/abrams\n LOCATION:Abrams Planetarium END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20110923T040000Z UID:1316181027058@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Athletics DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20110923 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20110924 SUMMARY:Women's Tennis Spartan Invitational DESCRIPTION: Time/location subject to change.

Like the Mediterranean, its depths hide the remains of hundreds of ancient shipwrecks, each with its own story to tell. But unlike the warm,oxygen-rich bottom of the Mediterranean, the anoxic waters of the Black Sea abyss have long been thought to preserve wood and organic remains. An international team of archaeologists and oceanographers are starting to discover ancient and medieval wrecks here using the latest in robotic and digital imaging technology. The well-preserved state of these wrecks and their cargoes have electrified the archaeological community and the world. This lecture provides an overview of these discoveries through the eyes of Dan Davis, an archaeologist who helped direct the first scientific excavation of two ancient deep-water wrecks in the Black Sea using a remotely-operated vehicle.\n \n This lecture is sponsored by the Central Michigan Chapter of the Archaeological Institute of America and the Department of Art, Art History and Design.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Jon Frey\n Contact phone: (517) 355-0237\n Contact email: freyjona@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://archaeological.org/events/5590\n LOCATION:S105 South Kedzie Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20110926T230000Z UID:1312853720443-0003@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20110926T230000Z DTEND:20110927T010000Z SUMMARY:Christian Medical Association Bible Study DESCRIPTION: Weekly Bible Study hosted by CMA.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Christian Medical Association\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.com.msu.edu/Student_Groups/Flyers-2011/CMA.pdf\n Contact name: Amy Luke\n Contact phone: 734-645-0376\n Contact email: lukeamy@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.com.msu.edu/Student_Groups/Flyers-2011/CMA.pdf\n LOCATION:C102 Fee Hall, Patenge Room END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20110926T233000Z UID:1311946895231@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

Dr. Sleep's interests include conditions on the Earth and the habitability of other planets. He was born in Kalamazoo, Michigan, and grew up in the paper mill town of Parchment. He graduated from Michigan State University and arrived at MIT during the plate tectonic scientific revolution. His thesis was on subducting slabs. He taught at Northwestern University before moving to Stanford. His interest in habitability stems from his work on hydrothermal circulation at midoceanic ridges and his work on the feeble tectonic activity on Mars.\n

At the present time, knowledge about the commitment of hematopoietic precursor cells including hematopoietic stem cells and progenitors in this response remains scant. Our recent studies have shown that bacteremia causes a marked increase in the number of hematopoietic stem cells bearing the lineage (lin)-c-kit+Sca-1+ (LKS) surface markers in the bone marrow of mice. This dramatic expansion of the LKS cell pool results from both increased mitosis of these cells and inversion from lin-c-kit+Sca-1- cell phenotype. TLR4-JNK-AP1 signaling plays a major role in mediating phenotypic inversion of lin-c-kit+Sca-1- cells. Cells in the expanded LKS cell pool are transcriptionally reprogrammed for enhancing their commitment to myeloid lineage development. These primitive precursors contain an increased number of colony-forming unit-granulocyte/macrophage (CFU-GM). Mobilization of LKS cells into the circulation is significantly increased during bacteremia. Kidney capsule implantation test shows that LKS cells generated from inversion of lin-c-kit+Sca-1- cells following LPS stimulation possess a strong activity of extramedullary granulopoiesis. These results demonstrate that the lin-c-kit+Sca-1+ cell population in the bone marrow constitutes a key component of the host defense response to bacteremia. Functional modifications of these primitive hematopoietic precursors are critical for enhancing granulocyte production following bacterial infection.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://phmtox.msu.edu\n Contact name: Diane Hummel\n Contact phone: (517) 353-9616\n Contact email: phm@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://phmtox.msu.edu/events/pdf/ZHANG%20P--Flyer.pdf\n LOCATION:B448-449 Life Sciences Building END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20111005T211500Z UID:1315483284436@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20111005T211500Z DTEND:20111005T224500Z SUMMARY:MSU Student Veterans & Service Members Welcome Reception!

DESCRIPTION: In conjunction with National Fossil Day, "Dinosaur CSI: Who or What Murdered the Dinosaurs?" will be presented by Ralph E. Taggart, professor in the departments of Geological Sciences and Plant Biology at MSU.\n \n Taggart's passion is the reconstruction of ancient environments, weaving fossil studies into realistic snapshots of ancient worlds and the plants and animals that lived in them. One of his favorite case studies involves dinosaurs: these always-captivating creatures dominated life on land for over 150 million years, yet 66 million years ago, all of them, except for birds, disappeared. For many, the obvious suspect in this dinosaur homicide is an asteroid that collided with the Earth at just that time, but murder investigations are rarely that simple. Taggart will take visitors through a network of clues that reveal some totally unexpected "partners in crime".\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu\n Contact phone: 517-355-2370\n Contact email: pr@museum.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu\n LOCATION:MSU Museum - Auditorium END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20111009T183000Z UID:1315494524842@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Public Programs DTSTART:20111009T183000Z DTEND:20111009T193000Z SUMMARY:The Super Sky Show DESCRIPTION: The Sunday family show, appropriate for children, preschool through 2nd grade and their families, is "The Super Sky Show.

What unfolded was the most exciting musical event St. Louis had ever witnessed: five concerts given by Jenny Lind, known as the "Swedish Nightingale," one of the most celebrated singers of all time. Under the brilliant management of circus magnate P.T. Barnum, Jenny Lind became a sensation. Her concerts commanded as much as $150 a seat, the equivalent of $3000 today. By marketing the singer as an emblem of feminine virtue and benevolence, Barnum managed to infect the entire nation with "Jenny Lind mania."\n \n Harlan Jennings is associate professor of voice (baritone) at the Michigan State University College of Music. Dr. Jennings has sung with a number of regional opera companies, including the Cincinnati Opera, Michigan Opera Theater, and the St. Louis Municipal Opera, and is the author of numerous articles concerning opera in the American West.\n \n Refreshments will be served.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lib.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.lib.msu.edu/features/?e=33\n LOCATION:Main Library North Conference Room, W449 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20111013T040000Z UID:1293638519197-0243@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

Notably, the entire first graduating class of the Michigan Agricultural College (now MSU) was excused before the graduation ceremonies in 1861 so that they could join the Union Army. Another thread: Luther Baker, the man who led the capture of Lincoln's assassin, was a Michigan native who returned to Lansing after the war. Several artifacts relate to Civil War General John G. Parkhurst from Coldwater, Mich., who spent time in the notorious Confederate Libby Prison.

He will also show NASA's plans for the next great telescope in space, the James Webb Space Telescope. It will look even farther back in time than the Hubble Space Telescope and will peer inside the dusty cocoons where stars and planets are being born today. It is capable of examining Earth-like planets around other stars using the transit technique, and future missions may find signs of life. \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Dept. of Physics and Astronomy\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.pa.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Brian O'Shea\n Contact email: oshea@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.pa.msu.edu/seminars/colloquium_2011_Fall/\n LOCATION:1410 BPS END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20111020T040000Z UID:1293638519197-0250@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

If their parents are undocumented they have no mechanism to obtain legal residency, even if they have lived most of their lives in the U.S. The Dream Act, which has been introduced in the Senate and the House, would permit such persons to obtain permanent legal status and become eligible for U.S. citizens if they go to college or serve in the military.

Notably, the entire first graduating class of the Michigan Agricultural College (now MSU) was excused before the graduation ceremonies in 1861 so that they could join the Union Army.

Parkhurst from Coldwater, Mich., who spent time in the notorious Confederate Libby Prison.

It was all the result of a decision to change the national standard for obesity. The question is "What was behind a ruling to declare so many people to be fat? Was it political, financial or for the good of humankind?" You'll find out that diet companies have raked in huge profits because of the new standards - guidelines the weight loss industry helped structure. \n The answer lies in a new film by award-winning director Darryl Roberts who, in a follow-up to "America The Beautiful", examines the cause of our country's obsession with dieting. "America The Beautiful 2: The Thin Commandments" also weighs in on the raging debate between doctors who say fat is healthy versus those who disagree. \n \n\n Price: FREE\n Sponsor: University Activities Board (UAB)\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.uabevents.com\n Contact name: University Activities Board\n Contact phone: 355-3354\n Contact email: uab@hfs.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.uabevents.com\n LOCATION:B117 Wells Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20120216T020000Z UID:1328642815696-0002@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20120216T020000Z DTEND:20120216T033000Z SUMMARY:Sista - to - Sista - 134 Akers Hall DESCRIPTION: Meets weekly in 134 Akers Hall\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://events.msu.edu/eastneighborhood/\n Contact name: Shetina Jones\n Contact email: sjones@rhs.msu.edu\n LOCATION:134 Akers Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20120216T050000Z UID:1328290577848-0010@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

Gravitational lensing, the bending of light by mass, is one of the ways in which we can detect this mysterious matter. I will describe an on-going, multi-year program by MSU astronomers, collaborating with astronomers from the Space Telescope Science Institute and around the world, to provide the world's best measurements of dark matter in a sample of 25 extremely massive clusters of galaxies. We use the Hubble space Telescope to provide full-color images of the gravitational lensing of galaxies behind these clusters. We use other telescopes, including the Chandra X-ray Observatory and radio telescopes, to provide independent measurements of the dark matter. With these observations, we will test theoretical predictions about where and how dark matter and normal matter pile up in the universe.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Abrams Planetarium\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.pa.msu.edu/abrams\n Contact name: Mary Gowans\n Contact phone: 517-355-4676\n Contact email: gowans@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.pa.msu.edu/abrams\n LOCATION:Abrams Planetarium END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20120224T050000Z UID:1328290577848-0018@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

The program was established in 1992 and is coordinated by the Michigan Traditional Arts Program at the MSU Museum and the Labor Education Program in the College of Social Science's School of Human Resources and Labor Relations.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: MSU Museum\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu\n Contact name: John Beck\n Contact phone: (517) 432-3982\n Contact email: beckj@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu\n LOCATION:MSU Museum Auditorium END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20120224T173000Z UID:1328213732241@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20120224T173000Z DTEND:20120224T183000Z SUMMARY:Feb. 24 - Geological Sciences Seminar DESCRIPTION: Dr. Brian Hampton - Michigan State University - "The stratigraphic anatomy of collisional suture zones: A case study from southern Alaska"\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: MSU Department of Geological Sciences\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://glg.msu.edu\n Contact name: Heidi Lynde\n Contact phone: 517 355-4626\n Contact email: lynde@msu.edu\n LOCATION:304 Natural Science Building END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20120224T174000Z UID:1326316724352@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20120224T174000Z DTEND:20120225T045900Z SUMMARY:Analytical Seminar DESCRIPTION: Professor Erin Carlson (Indiana University)\n Host - Prof. Gavin Reid\n "Chemical Probes to Explore Bacterial Development and Pathogenesis"\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Chemistry\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.chemistry.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Brenda Franklin\n Contact phone: (517) 355-9715 ext. 341\n Contact email: franklin@chemistry.msu.edu\n LOCATION:136 Chemistry END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20120224T200000Z UID:1323367733113-0001@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

What makes a good question to explore? What makes a good research design? In this workshop, Joe and Bob will take you through a process for designing, implementing and learning from STEM education research. As in disciplinary based research, asking appropriate and powerful questions that can both help solve pressing problems but also contribute to the knowledge of the community in paramount. Asking the "right question" is always a tough component of any research. They will focus on the importance of building from what is already known in the literature to find solutions to problems of students learning. Next, they will explore designs that can help you answer question. They will focus on a design-based cycle that can help your research on STEM education build from initial seed ideas through more robust and mature projects. The session will provide time for you to discuss and plan ideas with your colleagues.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: CNS\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://ns.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Sekhar Chivukula\n Contact email: sekhar@pa.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://teachingessentials.msu.edu/materials-for-each-session/03-12---sotl\n LOCATION:1400 BPS END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20120312T180000Z UID:1330441196747-0001@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Academic DTSTART:20120312T180000Z DTEND:20120312T210000Z SUMMARY:Writing Center - 182B Hubbard Hall DESCRIPTION: Meets in Hubbard Hall, room 182B, near the North side Lounge. \n \n Please visit www.writing.msu.edu or click "more information" to make an appointment.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://events.msu.edu/eastneighborhood/\n Contact name: Corrine Cozzaglio\n Contact email: cozzaglio@gmail.com\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://writing.msu.edu/\n LOCATION:182B Hubbard Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20120312T180000Z UID:1328904562828@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Academic DTSTART:20120312T180000Z DTEND:20120312T210000Z SUMMARY:College of Natural Sciences Visiting Advisor DESCRIPTION: A guest adviser from the College of Natural Sciences will be in Room 130C Hubbard Hall (across from Sparty's) from 1:00pm-4:00p.m.\n \n All current Natural Science students and others who may be interested in exploring majors in Natural Science are encouraged to attend.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://events.msu.edu/eastneighborhood/\n Contact name: Debra Thornton\n Contact email: thornt28@msu.edu\n LOCATION:130C Hubbard Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20120312T211000Z UID:1325884475579@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20120312T211000Z DTEND:20120313T045900Z SUMMARY:Plant Research Laboratory DESCRIPTION: Prof. Martin Jonikas will give a presentation entitled, "Changing the pace of photosynthesis research by doing 100,000 experiments at once"\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Janet Taylor\n Contact phone: 517/353-2270\n Contact email: taylorja@cns.msu.edu\n LOCATION:1200 Plant and Soil Science END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20120312T230000Z UID:1330441483940-0001@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Academic DTSTART:20120312T230000Z DTEND:20120313T020000Z SUMMARY:Writing Center - 182B Hubbard Hall DESCRIPTION: Meets in Hubbard Hall, room 182B, near the North side Lounge. \n \n Please visit www.writing.msu.edu or click "more information" to make an appointment.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://events.msu.edu/eastneighborhood/\n Contact name: Corrine Cozzaglio\n Contact email: cozzaglio@gmail.com\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://writing.msu.edu/\n LOCATION:182B Hubbard Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20120312T233000Z UID:1330441547899-0001@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Academic DTSTART:20120312T233000Z DTEND:20120313T020000Z SUMMARY:Math Learning Center Tutoring DESCRIPTION: Math tutoring available in Hubbard Hall rooms 129, 130C and G30 and G31 in the basement.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://events.msu.edu/eastneighborhood/\n Contact name: Katrina Suchoski\n Contact email: suchoski@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.math.msu.edu/CurrentStudents/LearningCenter/Default.aspx\n LOCATION:Hubbard Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20120313T000000Z UID:1314633998606@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

In fact, one in three women over the age of 50 will experience an osteoporosis related fracture in their lifetime. Along with its associated increase in fracture risk, bone loss may have negative effects on metabolism and insulin secretion. Despite all the anti-resorptive treatments on the market, the number of osteoporotic patients is on the rise in the U.S. and worldwide. Bone loss can be caused by a variety of factors including aging, menopause, and diseases such as those examined in my laboratory: type 1 diabetes and inflammatory bowel disease. Diagnosis of T1D is increasing in children and adults. While medical advances are extending patient lifespan, maintaining euglycemia remains difficult, even under therapeutic vigilance. Thus, more T1D patients are suffering from complications, including bone loss and its associated increased fracture risk. We demonstrate that T1D suppresses bone formation and strength while altering bone marrow cell populations and increasing marrow adiposity. We have incorporated co-culture models, genetically modified mouse models and human studies to identify potential mechanisms/therapeutic targets. Similarly, we have used the same approaches to examine mechanisms of inflammatory bowel disease, which led us to identify the gut as a potential mediator of bone loss. We are now focusing on the role of the gut environment as a signal regulating bone loss in type 1 diabetes as well as in estrogen deficiency (as is associated with menopause). We have identified significant gut changes that relate to bone health. Taken together, our studies are moving toward identifying basic signaling mechanisms relating the GI tract to bone health.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://events.msu.edu/deptpharmacology/\n Contact name: Diane Hummel\n Contact email: phm@msu.edu\n LOCATION:110 Radiology Bldg (Auditorium) END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20120328T200000Z UID:1323891944266@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20120328T200000Z DTEND:20120328T211500Z SUMMARY:Department of Chemistry Organic Seminar DESCRIPTION: Dilini Ratnayake, MSU, will present a Department of Chemistry Organic Seminar on Wednesday, March 28.

Bill is a college bound seventeen-year-old, equipped with scholastic brilliance, but low emotional intelligence; keen self awareness, yet an inability to read social cues; and a charming directness. He is also uncertain about relationships, anxious about dating, and prone to taking everything he hears literally.

\n GUEST CONDUCTOR\n Daniel Beckwith (Metropolitan Opera, Glyndebourne Opera)\n \n Haunting melodies and fantastical tales meld into an evening of brilliant French opera in Jacques Offenbach's The Tales of Hoffmann, loosely based on the short stories of the poet E.T.A. Hoffmann. Join the dreamscape of the stories of Hoffmann's three doomed loves: a mechanical doll, a servant of an earthly devil, and a dying singer. Each love story has its own twist as Hoffmann searches for the ideal woman, only to lose each lover by means of his own foolishness. This is French grand opera at its best - a showcase for brilliant singing, dramatic confrontation, and soaring orchestral harmonies. Sung in French (with English surtitles). \n A preview lecture will be held 45 minutes before each performance. \n \n The 2011-12 MSU Opera Theatre season is supported by the Worthington Family Foundation.\n\n Price: $20, $18 for senior citizens (age 60 and older), $10 for student and those under 18\n Sponsor: College of Music\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.music.msu.edu\n Contact phone: 517.353.5340 \n Contact email: musicpr@msu.edu\n LOCATION:MSU Concert Auditorium, Auditorium Rd., MSU Campus END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20120331T020000Z UID:1329835795172@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20120331T020000Z DTEND:20120331T040000Z SUMMARY:Observatory Open House DESCRIPTION: The first 2012 public observing weekend at the MSU Observatory 24" telescope will be Friday and Saturday, March 30 and March 31, weather permitting.

The sympathetic nervous system is central to the regulation of both short- and long-term blood pressure, and evidence is beginning to emerge indicating altered sympathetic neural activity (and reactivity) not only between men and women, but also within women at various stages of the ovarian cycle. This seminar will explore the influence of sex and the ovarian cycle on post-ganglionic sympathetic neural outflow in humans via the technique of microneurography. More specifically, Dr. Carter will compare sympathetic neural control and reactivity in 1) young men and women, and 2) premenopausal women during high and low levels of estradiol and progesterone. These findings will be discussed as they pertain to increased risk of orthostatic intolerance in young women, as well as the post-menopausal surge in cardiovascular disease.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://events.msu.edu/deptpharmacology/\n Contact name: Diane Hummel\n Contact phone: 884-3553\n Contact email: phm@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://phmtox.msu.edu/events/pdf/CARTER%20J--Flyer%20_MSU_.pdf\n LOCATION:1425 Biophysical Science Bldg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20120404T170000Z UID:1331645749324@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20120404T170000Z DTEND:20120404T180000Z SUMMARY:Class of 2015 Eboard Meeting DESCRIPTION: Price: free\n Sponsor: Class of 2015\n Contact name: Kristina Gwinn\n Contact email: gwinnkri@msu.edu\n LOCATION:EL-C102, DMC-G029, MUC-UC3 208 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20120404T200000Z UID:1323891232731@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20120404T200000Z DTEND:20120404T211500Z SUMMARY:Department of Chemistry Organic Seminar DESCRIPTION: Professor Jared Shaw, UC at Davis, will present a Department of Chemistry Seminar on Wednesday, April 4.

The film is presented by Susan Bandes, Department of Art, Art History & Design and is described by the Village Voice as:\n \n "An extraordinary example of both art-historical interpretation and CGI as passport to unknown lands, The Mill and the Cross, based on a book by Michael Francis Gibson, is a moving-image tribute to the still image, with its ability to "wrestle the senseless moment to the ground." The subject is The Way to Calvary, the year 1564, the place Flanders. The signer of that vast canvas, Pieter Bruegel the Elder (Rutger Hauer), takes a hillside vantage to scout out faces for his painting." (The Village Voice, September 14, 2011)\n \n FREE parking is available in stadium lot 62E on Red Cedar Road after 6:00pm. The Main Library is wheelchair accessible via the north entrance.

Cellular oxygen is an important systemic signal that modulates\n metabolic activities and disease in the liver and intestine. Low cellular oxygen also referred to as\n hypoxia is observed in several gastrointestinal diseases such as non-alcoholic and alcoholic fatty\n liver disease, inflammatory bowel disease and liver and colon cancers. Regulation of hypoxiamediated\n genes is dependent on the nuclear transcription factor, hypoxia inducible factor (HIF).\n HIF signaling is critical in the adaptive response to low oxygen levels by activating genes involved\n in metabolism, angiogenesis, cell survival and iron metabolism. Using the latest in mouse\n transgenic technology we have developed novel animal models to study accurately the role of\n oxygen sensitive transcription factors in the liver and intestine. The major goal of our research\n program is to determine the molecular mechanisms by which oxygen sensing transcription factors\n regulate gastrointestinal homeostasis, inflammation and cancer.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://events.msu.edu/deptpharmacology/\n Contact name: Diane Hummel\n Contact phone: 517-884-3553\n Contact email: phm@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://phmtox.msu.edu/events/pdf/SHAH%20Y--Flyer.pdf\n LOCATION:110 Radiology Bldg Auditorium END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20120411T180000Z UID:1332965448631@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20120411T180000Z DTEND:20120411T200000Z SUMMARY:Faculty Emeriti Association Lecture DESCRIPTION: Dr. Andrea Cathryn Bozoki, Michigan State University Associate Professor of Neurology and Ophthalmology, presents "Normal Cognitive Aging versus Mild Cognitive Impairment.

Over the past couple of years, complexes based on molybdenum, tungsten and ruthenium have been discovered that will produce olefins good to excellent selectivity for the generation of Z olefins both in cross and in ring closing metathesis. New ligands have been developed that result in different selectivities and open new applications of metathesis in the synthesis of an array of complex molecules. \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Chemistry\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.chemistry.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Rebecca Townsend\n Contact phone: 517.355.9175 x345\n Contact email: townsend@chemistry.msu.edu\n LOCATION:138 Chemistry Building END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20120430T200000Z UID:1334694642811@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20120430T200000Z DTEND:20120430T210000Z SUMMARY:Design and Applications of Selective Catalysts for Olefin Metathesis DESCRIPTION: Special Seminar Presentation by Professor Robert H.

Rooted in a political and cultural context, the mixed-media art exhibition explores and celebrates the experiences of women in the building and construction industry, especially the pioneering women who joined the skilled trades in the late 1970's and who have left their signatures on the nation's skyline.\n \n Susan Eisenberg, an artist, poet, activist, Brandeis University scholar and master electrician, interviewed more than 30 other women in the trades -- including ironworkers, electricians, painters, plumbers and carpenters -- about their experiences. Her installation reflects these candid conversations.\n \n "On Equal Terms" demonstrates the successful intersection of work and family life for tradeswomen -- and aptly enough, the closing reception is planned in honor of Mother's Day and the millions of working mothers across the nation. Speakers for the reception include Susan Eisenberg and Joe Davis, international representative of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu\n Contact phone: 517-355-2370\n Contact email: pr@museum.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu\n LOCATION:MSU Museum - Main Gallery END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20120513T183000Z UID:1332787973420@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Public Programs DTSTART:20120513T183000Z DTEND:20120513T193000Z SUMMARY:Space Chase DESCRIPTION: "Space Chase" relates the story from the distant Zorthon galaxy, where our two space explorers, Furg and Wox, along with their trusted info-bot, Dinger, are trying to avoid the clutches of their rival, the dreaded Kangzor.

Beginning with this concert and throughout the year, the trio will be performing specially designed anniversary concerts showcasing the repertoire the group has created over the last 40 years, featuring favorite movements of favorite works on each concert thus illustrating the variety and diversity of styles in the group's repertoire.\n \n The June 13 concert will open with "Dash" by Jennifer Higdon, an energetic five-minute work depicting the mad dash of modern day life to which audiences always respond enthusiastically. In the middle, the group will feature movements from works by three MSU composers who have written for the trio in the past: Jere Hutcheson, James Niblock, and Ricardo Lorenz. Closing the program will be "Slang" by Libby Larsen, another perennial audience favorite illustrating the various jazz idioms in American music, including boogie-woogie.\n \n An acknowledged leader in the field of new music, the Verdehr Trio has concentrated on molding and defining the personality of the violin-clarinet-piano trio for nearly 40 years. Founded in 1972 by Walter and Elsa Ludewig-Verdehr, the Verdehr Trio - with the support of MSU - has commissioned more than 200 new chamber music works from some of the world's most prominent composers. To round out its repertoire with Classical and Romantic works, the members of the trio have rediscovered and transcribed 18th and 19th century pieces for inclusion in the group's concert programs.\n \n The Verdehr Trio has performed throughout the world - in 19 European countries, the former Soviet Union, in South and Central America, as well as in Asia, Australia, and all 50 of the United States. Major concert halls where the ensemble has appeared, include Kennedy Center, Lincoln Center, Library of Congress, Vienna's Brahmssaal, Sydney Opera House, London's Wigmore Hall, Auditorio de Madrid, Dvorak Hall in Prague, IRCAM Centre in Paris and Leningrad's Philharmonic Chamber Hall. \n \n The group has also commissioned trio concertos from Buhr, David, Ott, Skrowaczewski, and Wallace, and has performed these pieces with Vienna Tonkunstler Orchestra, Honolulu Symphony, Prague Chamber Soloists, Vancouver CBC Orchestra, Grand Rapids Symphony, and Flint Symphony, as well as with the National Orchestra of Spain and the Grand Teton Festival Orchestra. Recently the Verdehr Trio released a CD of Double Concertos for violin and clarinet by James Niblock, William Wallace and Dinos Constantinides.\n \n More about The Verdehr Trio\n\n Price: Tickets: $10, $8 for seniors (60+), free for students\n Sponsor: College of Music\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.music.msu.edu\n Contact email: musicpr@msu.edu\n LOCATION:Cobb Great Hall, Wharton Center END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20120614T040000Z UID:1338387773425-0016@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

Pamela is known for her creative pottery sculptures and Jim for his inventive mobiles and garden features. The combination will certainly add some flair and fun to our gardens. Pieces will be for sale and a portion of the cost will support the MSU Horticulture Gardens. We will host a reception on Friday, June 22, to meet the artists and walk the gardens.\n \n Woven Willow Dragon! \n Bim Willow and Linda McIntosh, Michigan willow artists, will create a dragon with a long tail in our garden during our solstice events. The idea will be for children to enter through the dragons mouth and exit through the tail! Bim and Linda are known for their amazing structures including an impressive installation at the Morton Arboretum in Chicago. They plan to construct starting on June 19, so the new dragon should be ready for our Summer Solstice celebration! It will be located across from our Schoolyard Demonstration Garden. \n \n Steveanna Roose Master Storyteller - June 23\n Steveanna is a professional storyteller who served as the first artist-in-residence in the MSU Horticulture Gardens in 2010. She has been a featured performer, guest educator and presenter in past conferences including our Garden Day events. Discover all the buzz around bee folktale, folklore and fun facts in this interactive program for children and families. She will give 2 consecutive programs from 1:30-2:00 pm and 2:00-2:30 pm on June 23. She just may slip in a story about our new dragon!\n \n Bee Palooza! - June 23\n Come and learn from our insect experts as we celebrate National Pollinator Week, hosted in our VIP Garden (Vegetables and Insect Pollinators) near our native bee hotel.

The specific mechanisms controlling perfusion at the maternal-fetal interface include vasodilatation, vascular remodeling, and angiogenesis. Defining these specific mechanisms is significant because reduced uterine and placental blood flows are seen in all models of intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR), resulting in both increased fetal morbidity and long-term Developmental Origins of Adult Onset Diseases, including higher cardiac disease, hypertension, type II diabetes and cancers. I will present evidence that regulation of coordinated rises in cardiac output (total systemic flow) and redistribution of blood flows to the uterine maternal-fetal interface are modulated by convergent and interactive endothelial eNOS/NO associated local signaling mechanisms, including angiogenic factors, estrogen, and shear stresses, all of which are important to fetal development. Loss of this maintenance of normal fetal developmental growth patterns, as seen in IUGR, underlies in part the long term health consequences as we age.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://events.msu.edu/deptpharmacology/\n Contact name: Diane Hummel\n Contact phone: 884-3553\n Contact email: phm@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://phmtox.msu.edu/events/pdf/Magness--Seminar%20Flyer.pdf\n LOCATION:B448 Life Sciences END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20120626T040000Z UID:1338387773425-0028@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

Quilting has never been more popular, and "quilt studies" is a fast-growing field of research now as well. Studies indicate there are more than 27 million quilters in the U.S. alone, and the new exhibit explores why quilts are created and some innovative ways they are being used.\n \n "The rise of the feminist art movement in the 1960s and heightened national interest in American history spawned by the nation's bicentennial celebration in 1976 paved the way for more scholarly investigation of historical and contemporary American traditions, women's artistic contributions, crafts in general and quiltmaking in particular," notes Mary Worrall, assistant curator of folk arts and museum educator.

Part of the strategy for controlling pests is the use of chemicals that kill or reduce the numbers of the pest; and 50 years ago, a publication alerted the people of the world to potential dangers in pesticide use. This was the book Silent Spring, written by Rachel Carson and published in 1962.\n \n The MSU Museum revisits the publication of this landmark book, credited with launching the modern environmental movement. "Echoes of Silent Spring: 50 Years of Environmental Awareness" opens in the Heritage Gallery.\n \n "While pesticides are important agents in pest control, they also can carry significant risks if not used carefully and strategically," notes MSU Museum Director Gary Morgan, the exhibit's curator.

ROGERS DISTINGUISHED LECTURESHIP IN CHEMISTRY DESCRIPTION: The MAX T. ROGERS DISTINGUISHED LECTURESHIP welcomes a lecture by Professor Raymond Charles Stevens, Departments of Molecular Biology and Chemistry, The Scripps Research Institute, La Jolla, CA\n \n Molecular Recognition and Signaling in the Human GPCR Superfamily\n \n Abstract\n \n GPCRs constitute one of the largest protein families in the human genome and play essential roles in normal cell processes, most notably in cell signaling. The human GPCR family contains more than 800 members and recognizes thousands of different ligands and activates a number of signaling pathways through interactions with a small number of binding partners. GPCRs have also been implicated in numerous human diseases, and represent more than 30-40% of drug targets. Delivering GPCR structures in close collaboration with the community on specific receptor systems is of immense value to the basic science community interested in cell signaling and molecular recognition, as well as the applied science community interested in drug discovery. This work is being followed up with additional biophysical characterization including NMR spectroscopy and community wide assessments with computational biology groups throughout the world. Crystal structures are now available for rhodopsin, adrenergic, and adenosine receptors in both inactive and activated forms, as well as for chemokine, dopamine, histamine, S1P1 and opioid receptors in inactive conformations. A review of the common structural features seen in these receptors and the scope of structural diversity of GPCRs at different levels of homology provides insight into our growing understanding of the biology of GPCR action and their impact on drug discovery. Given the current set of GPCR structural data, a distinct modularity is now being observed between the extracellular (ligand-binding) and intracellular (signaling) regions. The rapidly expanding repertoire of GPCR structures provides a solid framework for experimental and molecular modeling studies, and helps to chart a roadmap for comprehensive structural coverage of the whole superfamily and an understanding of GPCR biological and therapeutic mechanisms. \n \n This work was supported by NIGMS PSI:Biology for GPCR structure processing (U54GM094618) and the NIH Roadmap Initiative (JCIMPT) for technology development (GM073197). \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Chemistry\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.chemistry.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Rebecca Townsend\n Contact phone: 517.355.9175 x345\n Contact email: townsend@chemistry.msu.edu\n LOCATION:138 Chemistry Building END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20120912T210000Z UID:1346435033033@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Athletics DTSTART:20120912T210000Z DTEND:20120913T035900Z SUMMARY:Women's Soccer vs. Western Michigan DESCRIPTION: For more information, go to http://www.msuspartans.com/\n\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://events.msu.edu/athletics/\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.msuspartans.com/\n LOCATION:DeMartin Soccer Complex END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20120912T230000Z UID:1347295774458@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

ROGERS DISTINGUISHED LECTURESHIP IN CHEMISTRY DESCRIPTION: The MAX T. ROGERS DISTINGUISHED LECTURESHIP welcomes a lecture by Professor Raymond Charles Stevens, Departments of Molecular Biology and Chemistry, The Scripps Research Institute, La Jolla, CA\n \n Adventures in High Throughput Structure Based Drug Discovery\n \n Abstract\n \n During the past 10 years significant progress has been made in developing novel high throughput structural biology technologies for protein cloning, expression, purification, crystallization, crystal imaging, synchrotron beamline data collection, NMR analysis, and structure determination/analysis. These developments are largely a result of the U.S. NIGMS Protein Structure Initiative, and efforts in Europe (e.g. SPINE) and Japan (e.g. Protein-3000). At The Scripps Research Institute, we have been able to miniaturize, automate and parallelize the structural biology processes using nanoliter volume technologies and more recently with human membrane proteins using lipidic cubic phase and pre-crystallization tools. The majority of these developments have now been commercialized and are being used by both traditional structural biology labs and structural genomics centers. Accordingly, significantly smaller amounts of materials can be used at all steps, and more parallel experiments can be engineered (genetically and mechanically) within the same space and time constraints, at lower costs. Application and results from these efforts towards entire proteomes (e.g. T. maritima, SARS), enzyme pathways/families (e.g. catecholamine biosynthesis, botulinum neurotoxins), high value drug targets (e.g. DPPIV, PAL) including G-protein Coupled Receptors (GPCRs) are now starting to emerge and will be presented. From these efforts, multiple biotechnology companies have emerged and generated marketed drugs or compounds now in the clinic to treat a number of human diseases (e.g. Syrrx, MemRx, Receptos, RuiYi). Lastly, lessons that we have learned from the past 10 years leads us to conclude that integration of the new individual technologies will significantly increase the levels of structure determination successes and throughput than is currently possible today.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Chemistry\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.chemistry.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Rebecca Townsend\n Contact phone: 517.355.9175 x345\n Contact email: townsend@chemistry.msu.edu\n LOCATION:136 Chemistry Building END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20120913T220000Z UID:1346778659442@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20120913T220000Z DTEND:20120914T000000Z SUMMARY:Tie Dye Craft Night DESCRIPTION: Tie Dye Craft Night\n 6 p.m.-8 p.m., East Lawn of the MSU Union (cancelled if rain)\n Bring your white clothes, sheets, pillowcases, or anything that you want to tie dye.

About the Band:\n For those not familiar with this musical iconic family from northwest Ohio (Bowling Green, to be exact) one is in for an ear-bending revelation. These four violinist brothers encompass a vivid blend of bluegrass, classical, and rock genres.\n \n Each brother is a classical virtuoso in his own right, and brings rich and diverse talents to their sound. As a family they have been making music together for over 25 years. They were named "Musical Family of America" in 1989 by presidential decree, were the subject of a nationally televised PBS documentary in 1993, and two brothers (Jason and Zach) were featured in the film documentary Music From the Inside Out in 2005. Their first album as brothers, Classical Grass, sold out of its first printing.\n \n Additional Events\n Entrepreneurship in Music meeting\n 11:00 a.m.-12:00 p.m.\n Hart Recital Hall, Music Building\n 333 W.

Quilting has never been more popular, and "quilt studies" is a fast-growing field of research now as well. Studies indicate there are more than 27 million quilters in the U.S. alone, and the new exhibit explores why quilts are created and some innovative ways they are being used.\n \n "The rise of the feminist art movement in the 1960s and heightened national interest in American history spawned by the nation's bicentennial celebration in 1976 paved the way for more scholarly investigation of historical and contemporary American traditions, women's artistic contributions, crafts in general and quiltmaking in particular," notes Mary Worrall, assistant curator of folk arts and museum educator. "Investigations into the history and meaning of American quilts have now evolved into extremely sophisticated studies spanning many disciplines," she adds.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: MSU Museum\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu\n Contact phone: 517-355-2370\n Contact email: pr@museum.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu\n LOCATION:MSU Museum - Main Gallery END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20120920T040000Z UID:1338387773425-0114@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

Part of the strategy for controlling pests is the use of chemicals that kill or reduce the numbers of the pest; and 50 years ago, a publication alerted the people of the world to potential dangers in pesticide use. This was the book Silent Spring, written by Rachel Carson and published in 1962.\n \n The MSU Museum revisits the publication of this landmark book, credited with launching the modern environmental movement. "Echoes of Silent Spring: 50 Years of Environmental Awareness" opens in the Heritage Gallery.\n \n "While pesticides are important agents in pest control, they also can carry significant risks if not used carefully and strategically," notes MSU Museum Director Gary Morgan, the exhibit's curator. "We now know that some pesticides that were once widely used can be extremely dangerous to organisms other than the target pests."\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: MSU Museum\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu\n Contact phone: 517-355-2370\n Contact email: pr@museum.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu\n LOCATION:MSU Museum - Heritage Gallery END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20120920T120000Z UID:1347302547785@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20120920T120000Z DTEND:20120920T130000Z SUMMARY:Parent Talk System DESCRIPTION: Parent Talk System: Words that Empower . .

As advances in information technology permeate every sector of the academic community, leading an IT organization demands a new set of talents and competencies.\n \n In the past, technical expertise was the most important qualification for selecting IT leaders. However, higher education institutions today are seeking to attract a new crop of leaders from a diverse array of academic disciplines and corporate sectors. Terms like "super-collaborator," "thought leader," "passionate champion," and "change agent," are infiltrating senior IT leader job descriptions.\n \n The new IT leader must be tactical and strategic, compassionate and shrewd, collaborative and competitive-all within an environment of expanding needs and constrained budgets.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Mike Jenkins\n Contact email: jenki250@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.cal.msu.edu/susan-metros-page/\n LOCATION:Wells Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20120928T200000Z UID:1346963368416@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Athletics DTSTART:20120928T200000Z DTEND:20120929T035900Z SUMMARY:Women's Soccer vs. Nebraska DESCRIPTION: For more information, go to http://www.msuspartans.com\n\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://events.msu.edu/athletics/\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.msuspartans.com\n LOCATION:DeMartin Soccer Complex END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20120928T210000Z UID:1346963478560@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Athletics DTSTART:20120928T210000Z DTEND:20120929T035900Z SUMMARY:Swimming & Diving vs. Wisconsin DESCRIPTION: For more information, go to http://www.msuspartans.com\n\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://events.msu.edu/athletics/\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.msuspartans.com\n LOCATION:IM West Outdoor Pool END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20120928T230000Z UID:1347989730040-0002@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20120928T230000Z DTEND:20120929T035900Z SUMMARY:Campus Center Cinemas DESCRIPTION: Brave \n Thursday, 119B Wells Hall 9:00 p.m.\n Friday, 137 Akers Hall, 7 p.m.\n Friday, Saturday & Sunday, 119 B Wells Hall 7:00 & 9:00 p.m.\n \n That's My Boy \n Friday, Saturday & Sunday, 117 B Wells Hall 7:15 & 9:20 p.m.\n Saturday, 137 Akers Hall, 9 p.m.\n \n Prometheus \n Thursday, 115 B Wells Hall 9:00 p.m.\n Friday, 137 Akers Hall, 9 p.m.\n Friday, Saturday & Sunday, 115 B Wells Hall 7:10 & 9:25 p.m.\n \n Safe House \n Friday, Saturday & Sunday, 122 B Wells Hall 7:30 & 9:30 p.m.\n Saturday, 137 Akers Hall, 7 p.m.\n \n \n --------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n \n\n Price: FREE for residence hall students, $2 all others\n Sponsor: University Activities Board (UAB) and Residence Halls Assoc.

Part of the strategy for controlling pests is the use of chemicals that kill or reduce the numbers of the pest; and 50 years ago, a publication alerted the people of the world to potential dangers in pesticide use. This was the book Silent Spring, written by Rachel Carson and published in 1962.\n \n The MSU Museum revisits the publication of this landmark book, credited with launching the modern environmental movement. "Echoes of Silent Spring: 50 Years of Environmental Awareness" opens in the Heritage Gallery.\n \n "While pesticides are important agents in pest control, they also can carry significant risks if not used carefully and strategically," notes MSU Museum Director Gary Morgan, the exhibit's curator.

Video produced by Lois Patiño.\n \n "Conversation" visually explores issues and events in the changing urban landscape through an art installation. It suggests the fragility of the urban landscape and questions its sustainability, especially in relation to the vulnerability of the constructed environment and its dependence and impact on nature. The installation's social focus and engagement highlight the interplay of fibers/textiles with space, using a mixed media approach.\n \n "Conversation" runs through October 19, 2012, in the RCAH's LookOut! Gallery. Regular hours are Monday through Friday, 12 to 3 p.m. \n \n For additional information, visit rcah.msu.edu or contact Carolyn Loeb at (517) 884-1322.\n\n Price: Free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Katie Wittenauer\n Contact phone: (517) 884-6290\n Contact email: wittenau@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://rcah.msu.edu/news-events/events/opening-reception-xia-gaos-conversation\n LOCATION:LookOut!

One of the greatest musicals in theater history, Cole Porter's first-class musical comedy is sailing to East Lansing while it continues a triumphant run on Broadway, where The New York Times calls it "MUSICAL-COMEDY JOY" and USA Today hails it as "GLORIOUS and EXUBERANT!"\n \n When the S.S. American heads out to sea, etiquette and convention get tossed out the portholes as two unlikely pairs set off on the course to true love... proving that sometimes destiny needs a little help from a crew of singing sailors, an exotic disguise and some good old-fashioned blackmail. Peppering this timeless classic are some of musical theater's most memorable standards, including "I Get a Kick Out of You," "You're the Top," and of course, "Anything Goes." Don't miss what The Associated Press exclaims as, "So DELIGHTFUL, So DELICIOUS, So DE-LOVELY!"\n\n Price: $32-$72; Student tickets availabe for $25\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Wharton Center\n Contact phone: (517) 353-1982\n Contact email: whartoncenter@gmail.com\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://http://whartoncenter.com/boxoffice/performance.aspx?pid=1241\n LOCATION:Wharton Center END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20121017T000000Z UID:1345154215386@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

The resulting friction between instinct and facade can give rise to polarizing urges - at once achingly beautiful and fearfully grotesque. Using whale song, Butoh theatre, and telecommunication, Musique 21 presents a "concert" that gradually devolves toward a kind of ecstatic truth.\n \n With guest appearance by Jody Knol, radio host of WKAR.\n \n

These original Greek Jews were later joined in Greece by refugees from the expulsions of the Iberian Peninsula in the late 15th century.\n \n A distinctive strand in Greek Jewry, Romaniote Jews who came to the U.S. during the height of immigration (1881 - 1924) created Kehila Kedosha Janina in 1906; the synagogue building was erected in 1927. The late MSU faculty member Ada Weintraub Finifter's grandfather was a founding member.\n \n The lecture honors the late Ada Finifter, who left a bequest to MSU Jewish Studies, and highlights the little known history of Romaniote Jewry in Greece and the community they established in New York.\n \n Co-sponsored by the MSU Jewish Studies Program.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lib.msu.edu\n Contact name: Holly Flynn\n Contact phone: 517-884-0901\n Contact email: flynnhol@msu.edu\n LOCATION:Main Library, W449 (4th Floor, West Wing) END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20121018T000000Z UID:1346352855335-0007@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20121018T000000Z DTEND:20121017T040000Z SUMMARY:Cosmic Bowling and Billiards DESCRIPTION: Spartan Lanes & UCue, MSU Union\n 8 p.m. - midnight\n Bring your friends, grab some bowling shoes, practice your bank shot, and have a great time.

Part of the strategy for controlling pests is the use of chemicals that kill or reduce the numbers of the pest; and 50 years ago, a publication alerted the people of the world to potential dangers in pesticide use. This was the book Silent Spring, written by Rachel Carson and published in 1962.\n \n The MSU Museum revisits the publication of this landmark book, credited with launching the modern environmental movement. "Echoes of Silent Spring: 50 Years of Environmental Awareness" opens in the Heritage Gallery.\n \n "While pesticides are important agents in pest control, they also can carry significant risks if not used carefully and strategically," notes MSU Museum Director Gary Morgan, the exhibit's curator. "We now know that some pesticides that were once widely used can be extremely dangerous to organisms other than the target pests."\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: MSU Museum\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu\n Contact phone: 517-355-2370\n Contact email: pr@museum.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu\n LOCATION:MSU Museum - Heritage Gallery END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20121019T161000Z UID:1346074770257@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20121019T161000Z DTEND:20121019T165000Z SUMMARY:International Year of the Cooperative DESCRIPTION: Presented by David Finet, General Manager of the East Lansing Food Cooperative (ELFCO), and Paulette Stenzel, MSU Professor of Sustainability and International Business Law\n \n October is National Cooperative Month and 2012 is the UN's "International Year of the Cooperative."

DIRECTOR Melanie Helton\n With twelve-piece orchestral ensemble\n \n Long ago, the Mayans predicted that the world will end on December 21, 2012. But there have been many times in human history where the world seemed destined for disaster. Through the music of Kurt Weill, MSU Opera Theatre embarks upon its first experiential piece of music theatre. Audience members will be immersed in a theatrical experience where they will find it difficult to separate reality from theatre. Through Weill's short opera Mahagonny Songspiel and songs from The Threepenny Opera, Happy End, Knickerbocker Holiday, Street Scene, and Lady in the Dark, among others, patrons will join in a journey from despair to hope, from isolation to community. Don't miss this opportunity for a new and highly theatrical evening, featuring the stirring and beautiful songs of a composer who fled Hitler for the freedom of America. Sung in English. A preview lecture will be held 45 minutes before each performance.\n \n This performance is funded in part by the Kurt Weill Foundation for Music, Inc., New York, NY.\n \n Reserved seating. TICKETS available from Wharton Center Box Office only, (517) 432-2000, (800) WHARTON.\n \n Buy Tickets\n

Part of the strategy for controlling pests is the use of chemicals that kill or reduce the numbers of the pest; and 50 years ago, a publication alerted the people of the world to potential dangers in pesticide use. This was the book Silent Spring, written by Rachel Carson and published in 1962.\n \n The MSU Museum revisits the publication of this landmark book, credited with launching the modern environmental movement. "Echoes of Silent Spring: 50 Years of Environmental Awareness" opens in the Heritage Gallery.\n \n "While pesticides are important agents in pest control, they also can carry significant risks if not used carefully and strategically," notes MSU Museum Director Gary Morgan, the exhibit's curator.

Part of the strategy for controlling pests is the use of chemicals that kill or reduce the numbers of the pest; and 50 years ago, a publication alerted the people of the world to potential dangers in pesticide use. This was the book Silent Spring, written by Rachel Carson and published in 1962.\n \n The MSU Museum revisits the publication of this landmark book, credited with launching the modern environmental movement. "Echoes of Silent Spring: 50 Years of Environmental Awareness" opens in the Heritage Gallery.\n \n "While pesticides are important agents in pest control, they also can carry significant risks if not used carefully and strategically," notes MSU Museum Director Gary Morgan, the exhibit's curator.

Hetland (1), L. Medina Luna (1), and G. Feng(2)\n \n 1: Dept. of Earth and Env. Sciences, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI, USA.\n 2: King Abdllah University of Science and Technology, Thuwal, Kingdom of Saudi ArabiaThe Mw 7.9 Wenchuan earthquake occurred on 12 May 2008, along the middle segment of the Longmen Shan fault zone (LMSfz), marking the eastern margin of the Tibetan plateau and the Sichuan basin in China. The Wenchuan earthquake was devastating to Sichuan Province, with about 70-86 thousand dead and wide-spread damage. The LMSfz is characterized by significant topographic relief indicating that deformation is active, yet prior to the 2008 earthquake this area was fairly seismically quiet and GPS revealed little strain accumulation along the faults. We use ALOS/PALSAR imagery to produce interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) interferograms of coseismic deformation. We find that many of the radar acquisitions associated with the Wenchuan earthquake were strongly affected by ionospheric disturbances coincident with the rupture. Using InSAR interferograms, as well as GPS data, we investigate the coseismic fault slip that occurred during the 2008 earthquake. The Wenchuan earthquake was oblique-thrust, but coseismic slip models indicate that the fault slip rake varied during the rupture, with progressively more strike-slip occurring on steeper faults as the rupture propagated from the SW to the NE. We further use geodetic-based inferences of coseismic slip to investigate the stresses in the LMSfz that led to the 2008 earthquake, and the relation of these stresses to stain-accumulation. Our initial analysis does not rely on models of static frictional stability, although we are exploring such models in order to seek further constraints on the stresses responsible for the Wenchuan earthquake.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: MSU Department of Geological Sciences\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://glg.msu.edu\n Contact name: Heidi Lynde\n Contact phone: 517 355-4626\n Contact email: lynde@msu.edu\n LOCATION:145 Natural Science Building END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20121026T164000Z UID:1350397896880@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20121026T164000Z DTEND:20121027T035900Z SUMMARY:Analytical Seminar DESCRIPTION: Professor Jon Amster, University of Georgia\n TBA\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Chemistry\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.chemistry.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Brenda Franklin\n Contact phone: (517) 355-9715 ext. 341\n Contact email: franklin@chemistry.msu.edu\n LOCATION:Chemistry END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20121026T230000Z UID:1349367482293-0002@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20121026T230000Z DTEND:20121027T035900Z SUMMARY:Campus Center Cinemas DESCRIPTION: Cabin in the Woods\n Thursday 115 B Wells Hall 9:00 p.m.\n Friday 137 Akers Hall 9:00 p.m.\n Friday, Saturday & Sunday 115 B Wells Hall 7:00 & 9:00 p.m.\n \n Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter\n Thursday 119 B Wells Hall 9:00 p.m.\n Friday 137 Akers Hall 7:00 p.m.\n Friday, Saturday & Sunday 119 B Wells Hall 7:15 & 9:15 p.m.\n \n Scream\n Friday, Saturday & Sunday 122 B Wells Hall 7:10 & 9:10 p.m.\n \n Hocus Pocus\n Friday, Saturday & Sunday 117 B Wells Hall 7:05 & 9:05 p.m.\n \n \n\n Price: FREE for Residence Hall Students, $2 all others\n Sponsor: University Activities Board (UAB)\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.uabevents.com\n Contact name: University Activities Board\n Contact phone: 355-3354\n Contact email: uab@hfs.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.uabevents.com\n LOCATION:B- Wing Wells Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20121027T000000Z UID:1347544736927@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Public Programs DTSTART:20121027T000000Z DTEND:20121027T013000Z SUMMARY:Gateway to Infinity DESCRIPTION: "Gateway" takes you on a tour of the universe, beginning on the Earth, heading out into the solar system, and then into the Milky Way galaxy and beyond.

Two of Bianca's loving suitors hire fortune-hunting Petruchio to win the hand of the wild (but wealthy) Katherina, and to "tame" her. With wisecracks, acerbic wit and a quick temper, neither man nor woman is willing to yield in this classic comedy of the sexes. Aquila Theatre, as always, takes a fresh look at one of Shakespeare's most challenging comedies, with a style the New York Times has described as "Gleefully engaging... almost unbearable fun... directed with inspiration and a beautiful use of physical humor."

Part of the strategy for controlling pests is the use of chemicals that kill or reduce the numbers of the pest; and 50 years ago, a publication alerted the people of the world to potential dangers in pesticide use. This was the book Silent Spring, written by Rachel Carson and published in 1962.\n \n The MSU Museum revisits the publication of this landmark book, credited with launching the modern environmental movement. "Echoes of Silent Spring: 50 Years of Environmental Awareness" opens in the Heritage Gallery.\n \n "While pesticides are important agents in pest control, they also can carry significant risks if not used carefully and strategically," notes MSU Museum Director Gary Morgan, the exhibit's curator. "We now know that some pesticides that were once widely used can be extremely dangerous to organisms other than the target pests."\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: MSU Museum\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu\n Contact phone: 517-355-2370\n Contact email: pr@museum.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu\n LOCATION:MSU Museum - Heritage Gallery END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20121029T152000Z UID:1347911193351@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20121029T152000Z DTEND:20121029T163000Z SUMMARY:Inorganic Seminar, Department of Chemistry DESCRIPTION: Professor Raymond E.

The principles require researchers to post their genomic data publicly within 24 hours for unconditional use by others. The Bermuda principles are often cited as critical to the ethos of contemporary biomedical research, and many emphasize the communitarian motivations related to the desire by some researchers to foster public science as being central to their drafting. However much less attention has been paid to a variety of pragmatic considerations which underlay the drafting of the principles, including the need to develop coordination mechanisms for biomedical research which was occurring on an unprecedented global scale (perhaps the best example of 'big science'(TM) within biomedical research) as well as at a relatively rapid speed. Using historical and sociological research techniques, we explore the epistemological and pragmatic values underlying the principles as well as their effects on scientific practices particularly within large-scale genomic research.\n \n For futher reading:\n \n "Bermuda Rules: Community Spirit, With Teeth," by Elliot Marshall\n\n Price: Free\n Sponsor: Lyman Briggs College\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lbc.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Robert Bell\n Contact email: bellro@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://lbc.msu.edu/SpeakerSeries\n LOCATION:C-102 Holmes Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20121030T220000Z UID:1346352567826-0009@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20121030T220000Z DTEND:20121031T035900Z SUMMARY:UAB General Board Meeting DESCRIPTION: UAB enhances Spartan's classroom education by offering worthwhile volunteer and leadership opportunities.

This was the book Silent Spring, written by Rachel Carson and published in 1962.\n \n The MSU Museum revisits the publication of this landmark book, credited with launching the modern environmental movement. "Echoes of Silent Spring: 50 Years of Environmental Awareness" opens in the Heritage Gallery.\n \n "While pesticides are important agents in pest control, they also can carry significant risks if not used carefully and strategically," notes MSU Museum Director Gary Morgan, the exhibit's curator. "We now know that some pesticides that were once widely used can be extremely dangerous to organisms other than the target pests."\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: MSU Museum\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu\n Contact phone: 517-355-2370\n Contact email: pr@museum.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu\n LOCATION:MSU Museum - Heritage Gallery END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20121031T190000Z UID:1347972883932@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20121031T190000Z DTEND:20121031T201500Z SUMMARY:Department of Chemistry, Organic Seminar DESCRIPTION: Professor Peter Lu, Bowling Green State University, will present a Department of Chemistry Organic Seminar.

El día de los Muertos, an ancient Mexican celebration in which families reconnect with departed ancestors, provides a special opportunity to remember and celebrate the life and legacy of those who have moved ahead into the sacred lands of Mictlan. The realm of the "fleshless" or the dead (Mictlán in Nahuatl, Xibalbá in Maya), according to Ancient Mexican traditions, is conceived to be in a fluid relationship with the world of the "flesh" or the living. "The fleshless ones" are considered to be a living presence in this world while the "living ones" contemplate death as the natural progression of life and renewal. \n \n MSU History Professor Juan Javier Pescador has created a Day of the Dead ofrenda installation at the MSU Museum for a number of years. His IAH 203 Latin America and the World class studies Day of the Dead and the museum exhibit helps share the special program with a broad audience.\n \n More details here: http://museum.msu.edu/index.php?q=node/820\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu\n Contact email: pr@museum.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu\n LOCATION:MSU Museum END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20121101T040000Z UID:1351614480181-0003@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

While these were new foods for the Europeans, Native Americans had been cultivating some of them for many thousands of years in Eastern North America.\n \n Archaeologists at Michigan State University are researching early Native American agriculture, particularly in Michigan, presenting key new findings on 4,000 years of indigenous agriculture for a new exhibition at the MSU Museum, "Michigan's First Farmers."\n \n The familiar expression, 'farming is our bread and butter' tells a lot about how we rely on farming, but in fact the earliest farmers were the native peoples in Michigan who had a vibrant economy that included early agriculture thousands of years before European settlers arrived.\n \n Learning more about this part of our past gives important insights into the different paths that societies around the world took toward food production and illustrates the contributions these societies made in the eventual establishment of large-scale production practices.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu\n Contact email: pr@museum.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu/index.php?q=node/750\n LOCATION:MSU Museum END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20121101T040000Z UID:1317044664927-0005@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20121101 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20121102 SUMMARY:Book Days at Schuler Books & Music DESCRIPTION: Show your support for the MSU Community Music School by purchasing books, DVDs, music, or sideline merchandise at one of the Schuler Books & Music Lansing locations (Meridian Mall in Okemos and Eastwood Towne Center in Lansing), Oct. 28-Nov. 3.

Part of the strategy for controlling pests is the use of chemicals that kill or reduce the numbers of the pest; and 50 years ago, a publication alerted the people of the world to potential dangers in pesticide use. This was the book Silent Spring, written by Rachel Carson and published in 1962.\n \n The MSU Museum revisits the publication of this landmark book, credited with launching the modern environmental movement. "Echoes of Silent Spring: 50 Years of Environmental Awareness" opens in the Heritage Gallery.\n \n "While pesticides are important agents in pest control, they also can carry significant risks if not used carefully and strategically," notes MSU Museum Director Gary Morgan, the exhibit's curator.

El día de los Muertos, an ancient Mexican celebration in which families reconnect with departed ancestors, provides a special opportunity to remember and celebrate the life and legacy of those who have moved ahead into the sacred lands of Mictlan. The realm of the "fleshless" or the dead (Mictlán in Nahuatl, Xibalbá in Maya), according to Ancient Mexican traditions, is conceived to be in a fluid relationship with the world of the "flesh" or the living. "The fleshless ones" are considered to be a living presence in this world while the "living ones" contemplate death as the natural progression of life and renewal. \n \n MSU History Professor Juan Javier Pescador has created a Day of the Dead ofrenda installation at the MSU Museum for a number of years.

While these were new foods for the Europeans, Native Americans had been cultivating some of them for many thousands of years in Eastern North America.\n \n Archaeologists at Michigan State University are researching early Native American agriculture, particularly in Michigan, presenting key new findings on 4,000 years of indigenous agriculture for a new exhibition at the MSU Museum, "Michigan's First Farmers."\n \n The familiar expression, 'farming is our bread and butter' tells a lot about how we rely on farming, but in fact the earliest farmers were the native peoples in Michigan who had a vibrant economy that included early agriculture thousands of years before European settlers arrived.\n \n Learning more about this part of our past gives important insights into the different paths that societies around the world took toward food production and illustrates the contributions these societies made in the eventual establishment of large-scale production practices.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu\n Contact email: pr@museum.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu/index.php?q=node/750\n LOCATION:MSU Museum END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20121103T040000Z UID:1317044664927-0007@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20121103 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20121104 SUMMARY:Book Days at Schuler Books & Music DESCRIPTION: Show your support for the MSU Community Music School by purchasing books, DVDs, music, or sideline merchandise at one of the Schuler Books & Music Lansing locations (Meridian Mall in Okemos and Eastwood Towne Center in Lansing), Oct. 28-Nov. 3.

Snow), as well as during his undergraduate studies at Oberlin College. In 2007, Wilson won the Native American Fine Art Fellowship from the Eiteljorg Museum and in 2010 was awarded a prestigious grant from the Joan Mitchell Foundation.\n \n Wilson is also an educator and has held visiting professorships at the Institute of American Indian Arts, Oberlin College, and the University of Arizona. Recentlly, Wilson managed The National Vision Project, a Ford Foundation funded initiative at the Museum of Contemporary Native Arts in Santa Fe, NM, has been an important advisor in the development and implementation of the NMArts/Navajo Nation TIME 2012 collaboration and is part of the Science and Art Research Collaborative, a group based at the Santa Fe Institute.\n\n Price: Free\n Sponsor: Residential College in the Arts and Humanities\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://rcah.msu.edu\n Contact name: Katie Wittenauer\n Contact phone: (517) 884-6290\n Contact email: wittenau@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://rcah.msu.edu/news-events/events/autoimmune-system-lookout-gallery\n LOCATION:LookOut!

While these were new foods for the Europeans, Native Americans had been cultivating some of them for many thousands of years in Eastern North America.\n \n Archaeologists at Michigan State University are researching early Native American agriculture, particularly in Michigan, presenting key new findings on 4,000 years of indigenous agriculture for a new exhibition at the MSU Museum, "Michigan's First Farmers."\n \n The familiar expression, 'farming is our bread and butter' tells a lot about how we rely on farming, but in fact the earliest farmers were the native peoples in Michigan who had a vibrant economy that included early agriculture thousands of years before European settlers arrived.\n \n Learning more about this part of our past gives important insights into the different paths that societies around the world took toward food production and illustrates the contributions these societies made in the eventual establishment of large-scale production practices.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu\n Contact email: pr@museum.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu/index.php?q=node/750\n LOCATION:MSU Museum END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20121104T050000Z UID:1351202775946-0007@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

El día de los Muertos, an ancient Mexican celebration in which families reconnect with departed ancestors, provides a special opportunity to remember and celebrate the life and legacy of those who have moved ahead into the sacred lands of Mictlan. The realm of the "fleshless" or the dead (Mictlán in Nahuatl, Xibalbá in Maya), according to Ancient Mexican traditions, is conceived to be in a fluid relationship with the world of the "flesh" or the living. "The fleshless ones" are considered to be a living presence in this world while the "living ones" contemplate death as the natural progression of life and renewal. \n \n MSU History Professor Juan Javier Pescador has created a Day of the Dead ofrenda installation at the MSU Museum for a number of years. His IAH 203 Latin America and the World class studies Day of the Dead and the museum exhibit helps share the special program with a broad audience.\n \n More details here: http://museum.msu.edu/index.php?q=node/820\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu\n Contact email: pr@museum.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu\n LOCATION:MSU Museum END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20121107T050000Z UID:1351614480181-0009@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

While these were new foods for the Europeans, Native Americans had been cultivating some of them for many thousands of years in Eastern North America.\n \n Archaeologists at Michigan State University are researching early Native American agriculture, particularly in Michigan, presenting key new findings on 4,000 years of indigenous agriculture for a new exhibition at the MSU Museum, "Michigan's First Farmers."\n \n The familiar expression, 'farming is our bread and butter' tells a lot about how we rely on farming, but in fact the earliest farmers were the native peoples in Michigan who had a vibrant economy that included early agriculture thousands of years before European settlers arrived.\n \n Learning more about this part of our past gives important insights into the different paths that societies around the world took toward food production and illustrates the contributions these societies made in the eventual establishment of large-scale production practices.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu\n Contact email: pr@museum.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu/index.php?q=node/750\n LOCATION:MSU Museum END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20121107T050000Z UID:1351202775946-0010@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

While these were new foods for the Europeans, Native Americans had been cultivating some of them for many thousands of years in Eastern North America.\n \n Archaeologists at Michigan State University are researching early Native American agriculture, particularly in Michigan, presenting key new findings on 4,000 years of indigenous agriculture for a new exhibition at the MSU Museum, "Michigan's First Farmers."\n \n The familiar expression, 'farming is our bread and butter' tells a lot about how we rely on farming, but in fact the earliest farmers were the native peoples in Michigan who had a vibrant economy that included early agriculture thousands of years before European settlers arrived.\n \n Learning more about this part of our past gives important insights into the different paths that societies around the world took toward food production and illustrates the contributions these societies made in the eventual establishment of large-scale production practices.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu\n Contact email: pr@museum.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu/index.php?q=node/750\n LOCATION:MSU Museum END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20121108T050000Z UID:1351202775946-0011@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

El día de los Muertos, an ancient Mexican celebration in which families reconnect with departed ancestors, provides a special opportunity to remember and celebrate the life and legacy of those who have moved ahead into the sacred lands of Mictlan. The realm of the "fleshless" or the dead (Mictlán in Nahuatl, Xibalbá in Maya), according to Ancient Mexican traditions, is conceived to be in a fluid relationship with the world of the "flesh" or the living. "The fleshless ones" are considered to be a living presence in this world while the "living ones" contemplate death as the natural progression of life and renewal. \n \n MSU History Professor Juan Javier Pescador has created a Day of the Dead ofrenda installation at the MSU Museum for a number of years. His IAH 203 Latin America and the World class studies Day of the Dead and the museum exhibit helps share the special program with a broad audience.\n \n More details here: http://museum.msu.edu/index.php?q=node/820\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu\n Contact email: pr@museum.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu\n LOCATION:MSU Museum END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20121109T050000Z UID:1351614480181-0011@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

El día de los Muertos, an ancient Mexican celebration in which families reconnect with departed ancestors, provides a special opportunity to remember and celebrate the life and legacy of those who have moved ahead into the sacred lands of Mictlan. The realm of the "fleshless" or the dead (Mictlán in Nahuatl, Xibalbá in Maya), according to Ancient Mexican traditions, is conceived to be in a fluid relationship with the world of the "flesh" or the living. "The fleshless ones" are considered to be a living presence in this world while the "living ones" contemplate death as the natural progression of life and renewal. \n \n MSU History Professor Juan Javier Pescador has created a Day of the Dead ofrenda installation at the MSU Museum for a number of years. His IAH 203 Latin America and the World class studies Day of the Dead and the museum exhibit helps share the special program with a broad audience.\n \n More details here: http://museum.msu.edu/index.php?q=node/820\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu\n Contact email: pr@museum.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu\n LOCATION:MSU Museum END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20121110T050000Z UID:1351614480181-0012@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

While these were new foods for the Europeans, Native Americans had been cultivating some of them for many thousands of years in Eastern North America.\n \n Archaeologists at Michigan State University are researching early Native American agriculture, particularly in Michigan, presenting key new findings on 4,000 years of indigenous agriculture for a new exhibition at the MSU Museum, "Michigan's First Farmers."\n \n The familiar expression, 'farming is our bread and butter' tells a lot about how we rely on farming, but in fact the earliest farmers were the native peoples in Michigan who had a vibrant economy that included early agriculture thousands of years before European settlers arrived.\n \n Learning more about this part of our past gives important insights into the different paths that societies around the world took toward food production and illustrates the contributions these societies made in the eventual establishment of large-scale production practices.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu\n Contact email: pr@museum.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu/index.php?q=node/750\n LOCATION:MSU Museum END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20121110T050000Z UID:1351202775946-0013@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

While these were new foods for the Europeans, Native Americans had been cultivating some of them for many thousands of years in Eastern North America.\n \n Archaeologists at Michigan State University are researching early Native American agriculture, particularly in Michigan, presenting key new findings on 4,000 years of indigenous agriculture for a new exhibition at the MSU Museum, "Michigan's First Farmers."\n \n The familiar expression, 'farming is our bread and butter' tells a lot about how we rely on farming, but in fact the earliest farmers were the native peoples in Michigan who had a vibrant economy that included early agriculture thousands of years before European settlers arrived.\n \n Learning more about this part of our past gives important insights into the different paths that societies around the world took toward food production and illustrates the contributions these societies made in the eventual establishment of large-scale production practices.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu\n Contact email: pr@museum.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu/index.php?q=node/750\n LOCATION:MSU Museum END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20121115T050000Z UID:1351202775946-0018@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

While these were new foods for the Europeans, Native Americans had been cultivating some of them for many thousands of years in Eastern North America.\n \n Archaeologists at Michigan State University are researching early Native American agriculture, particularly in Michigan, presenting key new findings on 4,000 years of indigenous agriculture for a new exhibition at the MSU Museum, "Michigan's First Farmers."\n \n The familiar expression, 'farming is our bread and butter' tells a lot about how we rely on farming, but in fact the earliest farmers were the native peoples in Michigan who had a vibrant economy that included early agriculture thousands of years before European settlers arrived.\n \n Learning more about this part of our past gives important insights into the different paths that societies around the world took toward food production and illustrates the contributions these societies made in the eventual establishment of large-scale production practices.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu\n Contact email: pr@museum.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu/index.php?q=node/750\n LOCATION:MSU Museum END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20121117T050000Z UID:1351202775946-0020@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

While these were new foods for the Europeans, Native Americans had been cultivating some of them for many thousands of years in Eastern North America.\n \n Archaeologists at Michigan State University are researching early Native American agriculture, particularly in Michigan, presenting key new findings on 4,000 years of indigenous agriculture for a new exhibition at the MSU Museum, "Michigan's First Farmers."\n \n The familiar expression, 'farming is our bread and butter' tells a lot about how we rely on farming, but in fact the earliest farmers were the native peoples in Michigan who had a vibrant economy that included early agriculture thousands of years before European settlers arrived.\n \n Learning more about this part of our past gives important insights into the different paths that societies around the world took toward food production and illustrates the contributions these societies made in the eventual establishment of large-scale production practices.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu\n Contact email: pr@museum.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu/index.php?q=node/750\n LOCATION:MSU Museum END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20121121T050000Z UID:1351612733884-0023@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

Users are sharing enormous amounts of personal information and updates with many people and applications on social network sites. Yet they are still struggling to cope with maintaining appropriate privacy in this new medium. In this talk, I will present the results of several projects aimed at understanding and addressing the privacy needs of users on social network sites. Our research demonstrates that users do have privacy concerns and problems, and could benefit from greater awareness and control over the sharing of their information. We have designed several new mechanisms and interfaces to address these problems, aimed at maintaining the social benefits of information sharing while reducing the risks of participating on social network sites.\n BIO: Dr. Heather Richter Lipford is an Associate Professor at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. She completed her Ph.D. from the College of Computing at the Georgia Institute of Technology. Her research interests include Human-Computer Interaction, usable privacy and security, and social computing. Her current projects focus on privacy management on social network sites and mobile platforms, interactive support for secure programming, and participation in online communities. She is co-directing the HCI Lab and is a member of the UNCC Cyber Defense and Network Assurability Center, the Charlotte Visualization Center and the UNCC Cognitive Science Academy.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Valeta Wensloff\n Contact email: wensloff@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://tism.msu.edu/event/social-media-seminar-series-privacy-social-network-sites\n LOCATION:Room 145, Communication Arts and Sciences Building END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20121129T211000Z UID:1347985032653@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20121129T211000Z DTEND:20121129T223000Z SUMMARY:Inorganic Seminar, Department of Chemistry DESCRIPTION: Professor Tom Hamann will present a Department of Chemistry Inorganic Seminar.

To make the public more aware of how AIDS can touch everyone, many galleries and museums shut down for a day to symbolize absence and loss. Over the years, rather than closing down on Dec. 1, Day With(out) Art programs have worked to highlight more proactive educational programming related to AIDS education, joining with World AIDS Day.\n  \n On exhibit will be a new acquisition to the MSU Museum collections, a Story Vase, embellished with a beaded message written by bead artist Lobolile Ximba of South Africa. The story vases tell the personal stories of Lobolile and other South African women who live in remote villages of KwaZulu-Natal.  They are all members of the Siyazama Project, a collective of women who work with traditional bead craft.\n \n Read more: http://museum.msu.edu/index.php?q=node/848\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: MSU Museum \n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu\n LOCATION:MSU Museum END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20121201T050000Z UID:1351612733884-0033@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

Rod, body and Japanese Bunraku style puppets are used to tell this classic tale.\n\n Price: $11\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Wharton Center\n Contact phone: (517) 353-1982\n Contact email: whartoncenter@gmail.com\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://whartoncenter.com/boxoffice/performance.aspx?pid=1276\n LOCATION:Wharton Center END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20121202T190000Z UID:1348249854172@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20121202T190000Z DTEND:20121202T210000Z SUMMARY:Family drop-in artmaking DESCRIPTION: Free, drop-in activity in the Ground Floor Gallery.

Part of the strategy for controlling pests is the use of chemicals that kill or reduce the numbers of the pest; and 50 years ago, a publication alerted the people of the world to potential dangers in pesticide use. This was the book Silent Spring, written by Rachel Carson and published in 1962.\n \n The MSU Museum revisits the publication of this landmark book, credited with launching the modern environmental movement. "Echoes of Silent Spring: 50 Years of Environmental Awareness" opens in the Heritage Gallery.\n \n "While pesticides are important agents in pest control, they also can carry significant risks if not used carefully and strategically," notes MSU Museum Director Gary Morgan, the exhibit's curator.

The program was established in 1992 and is coordinated by the Michigan Traditional Arts Program at the MSU Museum and the Labor Education Program in the College of Social Science's School of Human Resources and Labor Relations.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: MSU Museum\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu\n Contact name: John Beck\n Contact phone: (517) 432-3982\n Contact email: beckj@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu\n LOCATION:MSU Museum Auditorium END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130118T173000Z UID:1358259970919@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20130118T173000Z DTEND:20130118T183000Z SUMMARY:Jan. 18 - Geological Sciences Seminar DESCRIPTION: Dr. Guillaume Girard, Michigan State University\n "From mantle to ash cloud: quantifying magma ascent rates and degassing processes at Kilauea using short-lived U-series radionuclide disequilibria"\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: MSU Department of Geological Sciences\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://glg.msu.edu\n Contact name: Heidi Lynde\n Contact phone: 517 355-4626\n Contact email: lynde@msu.edu\n LOCATION:204 Natural Science Building END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130118T180000Z UID:1357574937540-0002@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Public Programs DTSTART:20130118T180000Z DTEND:20130118T200000Z SUMMARY:Prospective Freshmen Program DESCRIPTION: Intended for prospective freshmen students who have NOT been admitted to Michigan State University. \n \n Program begins at 1:00 p.m. Walking tour of campus begins at 2:00 p.m. Walking tour will last approximately 90 minutes. \n \n No programs on MSU Spring Break (March 8th).

As Reconstruction ended, African Americans' efforts to assert their constitutional rights began to be repressed at every turn, betraying the promises of Emancipation. Southern whites were emboldened by the North's withdrawal of support for Black access to land, civil and economic rights, and due process in law and politics. Whites passed laws that segregated, divested and disfranchised African-Americans -- laws that were enforced with violence and terror.

Take a break and listen to the only astronaut to have flown missions on all five space shuttles, Story Musgrave, MD. Over the course of 30 years, Musgrave paved his way into NASA history as one of its most colorful, passionate and dedicated astronauts. He served on two satellite-launching missions and led the spacewalking team that repaired the Hubble Space Telescope in 1993. Musgrave spent 1281 hours in space but will only be at MSU for 1 hour; so don't miss out on this once in a lifetime opportunity! Light refreshments will be provided.\n \n Story Musgrave was born in 1935 on a dairy farm in Stockbridge, MA. He was in the forests alone at age 3, and by age 5 floated his homebuilt rafts on the rivers. He rode combines at 5, drove trucks and tractors at 10 and when alone in remote fields, repaired them by 13. Story never finished school, ran off to Korea with the U.S. Marines where he was an aircraft electrician and an engine mechanic. He started flying with the Marines, and over the next 55 years accumulated 18,000 hours in over 160 aircraft. He is a parachutist with over 800 free falls. He has 7 graduate degrees in math, computers, chemistry, medicine, physiology, literature and psychology. He has been awarded 20 honorary doctorates. He was a part-time trauma surgeon during his 30 year astronaut career. Story was an NASA astronaut for over 30 years and flew on six spaceflights.

Phosphorus plays an important role in these changes. Recent changes in global markets for phosphorus raise the possibility of conserving phosphorus with benefits for both agriculture and freshwater quality.\n \n Stephen Russell (Steve) Carpenter is a leader of whole-ecosystem experiments and adaptive ecosystem management focused on freshwaters. Carpenter serves as the Director of the Center for Limnology at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, where he is the Stephen Alfred Forbes Professor of Zoology. He is a member of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences, a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, and a foreign member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences.

The lecture will take place in East Fee Hall in Room C102 (the Patenge Room), and can be accessed live at bioethics.msu.edu.
\n Joel Howell MD PhD is the Victor Vaughan Professor of the History of Medicine, and a Professor in the Departments of Internal Medicine (Medical School), History (College of Literature, Science, & the Arts), and Health Management and Policy (School of Public Health), at the University of Michigan. He practices primary care (as well as hospitalist care) and studies the history of medicine, with special emphasis on the history of medical technology. In so doing, he tried to understand how and why US medicine has become obsessed with the use of medical technology. Part of the answer to this question comes from the ways in which we choose to organize clinical practice, including the contingent nature of our current system of specialties. \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Center for Ethics and Humanities in the Life Sciences\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.bioethics.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Libby Bogdan-Lovis\n Contact phone: 517.432.5185\n Contact email: bogdanlo@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://msubioethics.com/2012/08/22/brownbag-webinar-series-hosts-center-for-ethics-faculty-karen-kel\n LOCATION:C-102 East Fee Hall or at bioethics.msu.edu END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130213T171000Z UID:1357764582838@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20130213T171000Z DTEND:20130213T175000Z SUMMARY:Rethinking the Packaging of the Products You Buy: Is There Hope to Reduce Waste?

Edwards and Piazza will discuss the importance of the family in the literacy support of children's learning. \n Please join us for GCLR's next free and open-access web seminar presented by Dr. Pat Edwards and Dr. Susan Piazza on February 17, at 7:00 p.m. USA (New York time zone): "The Impact of Family on Literacy Development: Convergence, Controversy, and Instructional Implications". We hope you will share this information with colleagues, students, and others who may be interested. In this presentation, Drs. Edwards and Piazza will discuss the importance of the family in the literacy support of children's learning. In their talk, these scholars will focus on the agreements and disagreements within the research community regarding how to work with families around literacy issues. Specifically, this presentation (1) highlights the areas of convergence around the impact of the family on literacy development, (2) defines the different courses of action for working with families, (3) presents support statements from researchers for the different courses of action, (4) discusses key studies,) and (5) issues new challenges to the research community.

Some of these stars have already become white dwarfs, with the mass of a sun compacted into the size of the Earth. Others have become neutron stars, with a mass of more than the sun packed into the size of a city. But do globular clusters contain the ultimate compact mass -- black holes? New observations say that some of them do. Globular clusters and the search for their elusive black holes are the topic of this talk.\n\n Price: Adults $3.00, students and senior citizens $2.50, children 12 years and under $2.00\n Sponsor: Physics Astronomy Department\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.pa.msu.edu\n Contact name: Mary Gowans\n Contact phone: 517-355-4676\n Contact email: gowans@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.pa.msu.edu\n LOCATION:Abrams Planetarium END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130222T003000Z UID:1346766418967@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

This is a team competition in which undergraduate students prepare a presentation about the state of the US economy and respond to questions from a panel of judges. Teams analyze economic and financial conditions and formulate a monetary policy recommendation, modeling the Federal Open Market Committee. The Economics Department funds this trip and we are now recruiting a team for 2013 competition which takes place in October/November. \n \n Preparation takes place mainly in the Fall Term and Independent Study credit may be obtained for participation. The team will be assisted by faculty members from the Department of Economics and will also receive feedback from distinguished alumni including Bob Goodman (former Managing Director of Putnam Investments) and Robert Rasche (former Senior Vice President of the St. Louis Fed). \n \n In the past, the team has remained in Chicago for an extra day to tour the Chicago Fed. This year, the Economic's Department will try and arrange for an additional tour (perhaps Goldman Sachs or Incapital). Participants should have completed coursework in macroeconomics and/or financial markets (for example, EC 252H, EC 302 or EC 330). A flyer is attached with additional information. An informational meeting will be held on Wednesday, Feb. 27th at 7pm in 114 Berkey Hall.

The lecture will take place in East Fee Hall in Room C102 (the Patenge Room), and can be accessed live at connect.msu.edu/brownbag.
\n Daniel A. Menchik recently joined MSU as Assistant Professor in the Department of Sociology and Lyman Briggs College. His research interests lie in the sociology of medicine, the sociology of knowledge, the sociology of science, and social theory. A current empirical interest is how medical practices are influenced by others at the bedside, but also bureaucratic policies, industry actors, and elite physicians on guidelines panels. A methodological interest is finding new ways to identify the feedback loops between these levels using field-based interviews and observations. Menchik took his BA at University of Wisconsin-Madison, his MPhil from the University of Cambridge, and his PhD from the University of Chicago. \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Center for Ethics and Humanities in the Life Sciences\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.bioethics.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Libby Bogdan-Lovis\n Contact phone: 517.432.5185\n Contact email: bogdanlo@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://msubioethics.com/2013/02/14/join-us-march-13-for-a-live-broadcast-lecture-by-msu-professor-da\n LOCATION:C-102 East Fee Hall or at bioethics.msu.edu END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130313T200000Z UID:1361978699140@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20130313T200000Z DTEND:20130313T220000Z SUMMARY:2015 Eboard Meeting with Dr. Falls DESCRIPTION: Class Eboard meeting plus a meeting with Dr Falls.\n \n\n Price: \n Sponsor: student\n Contact name: AJ Burandt\n Contact phone: 2314207084\n Contact email: Burandt.aj@gmail.com\n LOCATION:EL-C102 East Fee, DMC & MUC END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130313T200000Z UID:1357231296370@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20130313T200000Z DTEND:20130313T211500Z SUMMARY:Department of Chemistry Organic Seminar DESCRIPTION: Professor Anita Mattson, Ohio State University, will present a Department of Chemistry Organic Seminar.

Far from the sun, the comet may exist only as a small dirty snowball, a few miles across. This talk will explore how these dirty snowballs can transform into spectacular sights as they near the sun and how they inform us about the history of the solar system. Intriguingly, there is a possibility that two comets in 2013 may become bright enough to be visible to the naked eye, but, as of February, nobody knows for sure how bright either will become. The first of these comets, Comet PANSTARRS, will have arrived in our evening skies by mid-March. The second, Comet ISON, is expected toward the end of the year.

Your poster needs to be visually appealing, draw in the viewer, and convey your purpose and findings in a concise, direct manner. Dr. Tom Wolff, Associate Dean of the College of Engineering, has judged engineering project posters for many years. He will speak about layout, communication, and people's perceptions of typeface and graphic design. Workshop participants will review examples of posters -- both good and not-so-good -- and consider common pitfalls. Discussion of the function of a poster session as a vehicle for sharing your work with visitors and judges will conclude the workshop. This workshop will be especially useful for students preparing for the University Undergraduate Research and Arts Forum (UURAF).

The Riga massacre was the second major event in the Holocaust in the former Soviet territory after Babi Yar. \n \n \n ABOUT THE MOVIE:\n Rumbula's Echo is the first film and TV program focused on documenting the Rumbula Forest murders of 25,000, more than a third of Latvia's Jews. It is among the largest mass shootings of its kind of the Holocaust.\n \n The documentary places this genocide within the setting of the Holocaust in Latvia, during which Nazis and collaborators murdered an estimated 98% of Latvian Jews trapped in the country. Its weave of archival film and photos is narrated by those who were there as viewers see Latvia's Jewish community wiped out in six months in 1941. Rumbula's Echo is documenting Rumbula, and other pivotal Holocaust history in film, while the few remaining survivors can tell the story behind historic photos and silent film images. Rumbula's Echo offers the most profuse and detailed eye-witness descriptions of a large Holocaust mass shooting, within a local context, ever seen on film or television.\n (from http://www.rumbulasecho.org/)\n \n \n\n Price: Free and Open to the Public\n Sponsor: Jewish Studies Program\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://events.msu.edu/jewishstudies/\n Contact name: Jewish Studies Program\n Contact phone: 517-432-3493\n LOCATION:Wells Hall B119 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130405T000000Z UID:1361392636064@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20130405T000000Z DTEND:20130405T020000Z SUMMARY:Islam, Science, and Nature DESCRIPTION: The Department of Religious Studies warmly hosts Dr. Seyyed Hossein Nasr, a professor of religion at George Washington University.

The program was established in 1992 and is coordinated by the Michigan Traditional Arts Program at the MSU Museum and the Labor Education Program in the College of Social Science's School of Human Resources and Labor Relations.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: MSU Museum\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu\n Contact name: John Beck\n Contact phone: (517) 432-3982\n Contact email: beckj@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu\n LOCATION:MSU Museum Auditorium END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130405T180000Z UID:1357574937540-0013@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Public Programs DTSTART:20130405T180000Z DTEND:20130405T200000Z SUMMARY:Prospective Freshmen Program DESCRIPTION: Intended for prospective freshmen students who have NOT been admitted to Michigan State University. \n \n Program begins at 1:00 p.m. Walking tour of campus begins at 2:00 p.m. Walking tour will last approximately 90 minutes. \n \n No programs on MSU Spring Break (March 8th).

The lecture can be accessed live online at connect.msu.edu/brownbag.
\n Lisa Harris, M.D., Ph.D, is an Assistant Professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology and Women's Studies at University of Michigan. Dr. Harris earned her AB in English Literature at Harvard College, and subsequently earned her MD from Harvard Medical School. She completed a residency in obstetrics and gynecology at University of California, San Francisco. After residency she became a Robert Wood Johnson (RWJ) Clinical Scholar. Because so many issues in reproductive medicine have as much to do with American culture as they do to biomedicine, she subsequently earned a PhD in American Culture at University of Michigan. She has been a faculty member at University of Michigan since 1998, where she teaches students across campus, in the Medical School, School of Public Health, and College of Literature, Sciences and the Arts. She directs the senior undergraduate course, "Women's Reproductive Health," in the Women's Studies Department. In her research she examines issues at the intersection of clinical obstetrical and gynecological care and law, policy, politics, ethics, history and sociology. She is currently finishing a book on the history of in vitro fertilization in which she situates the rise in technological reproduction in the larger social and political contexts of changing women's roles in society, the legalization of abortion, the rise of the religious right, and ongoing erosion of reproductive health resources for poor women of color. She also studies the experiences of abortion workers, abortion stigma, and the clinical and ethical consequences of restrictive abortion legislation.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Center for Ethics and Humanities in the Life Sciences\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.bioethics.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Libby Bogdan-Lovis\n Contact phone: 517.432.5185\n Contact email: bogdanlo@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.bioethics.msu.edu/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=71&Itemid=30\n LOCATION:Online only: join us at connect.msu.edu/brownbag END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130411T190000Z UID:1365180345038@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20130411T190000Z DTEND:20130411T200000Z SUMMARY:AERA: Division G Webinar Speaker Series DESCRIPTION: New to American Educational Research Association (AERA)?

SBW has made great strides since its founding in 2008. The organization strives to provide the highest quality programs and activities to develop proficient leaders among its constituents. Members of SBW recognize that they can't perform at their best by working in isolation from others who have different cultural backgrounds than their own. One of the many ways SBW has chosen to build intercultural bridges is to host a conference initiative that they invite you to support. We are proud to announce that our keynote speaker will be Donzaleigh Abernathy, writer, speaker, actress, director and producer, and the daughter of Civil Rights Activist Ralph and Juanita Abernathy. SBW will invite representatives from other registered student organizations across campus to participate in the Summit. \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://events.msu.edu/education/\n Contact name: Tinisha Sharp\n Contact phone: 313-289-7679\n Contact email: sharptin@msu.edu\n LOCATION:Union Ballroom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130414T190000Z UID:1346944331062@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

Observations of water scientists and needs of water prospectors are calling on Midwest residents and policy makers to think differently about this vast freshwater resource and how we manage it for the future. What should we be thinking about as we prepare to respond to the world's freshwater needs? Which policies best help steward the Great Lakes while meeting demands for freshwater and economically-valued passageways?\n \n Speakers include Michael Jones, Ph.D., Chair, Firsheries and Wildlife, Michigan State University and Jon Allan, Director, Michigan Office of the Great Lakes\n This forum will take place in downtown Lansing in the Mackinac Room of the Anderson House Office Building across from the Capitol, 124 North Capitol, Lansing, MI 48909.

In this talk based on their forthcoming book, Aaron Goings and Gary Kaunonen will paint a working-class history of the strike, presenting valuable new information and perspectives which enrich our understanding of the conflict from the bottom up. Their work is especially rich in placing Italian Hall, before and after the Christmas Eve tragedy where over 70 people -- mostly children -- perished after a false cry of "fire," into its broader significance to workers, managers and the wider Copper Country region. \n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lib.msu.edu\n Contact name: Holly Flynn\n Contact phone: 517-884-0901\n Contact email: flynnhol@msu.edu\n LOCATION:Main Library, W449 (4th Floor, West Wing) END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130419T170000Z UID:1357574937540-0015@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Public Programs DTSTART:20130419T170000Z DTEND:20130419T190000Z SUMMARY:Prospective Freshmen Program DESCRIPTION: Intended for prospective freshmen students who have NOT been admitted to Michigan State University. \n \n Program begins at 1:00 p.m. Walking tour of campus begins at 2:00 p.m. Walking tour will last approximately 90 minutes. \n \n No programs on MSU Spring Break (March 8th).

He works with advanced degree students in the design and reporting of their thesis work. Rob is passionate about well-being metrics-the measurement of attributes of persons and phenomena in the human sciences that contribute to individual and collective well-being. He believes that in education, too much attention is given to what is readily available and easily quantified such as economic and psychometric data. This is in contrast to constructing new measures to learn more about learning, teaching and other interpersonal activities.\n \n Workshop, intended for doctoral students and interested faculty, will cover theoretical and practical issues that arise in the measurement of human abilities and attributes. \n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://events.msu.edu/education/\n Contact name: Ayodele Webb\n Contact phone: (517) 355-6683\n Contact email: webbayod@msu.edu\n LOCATION:252 Erickson Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130423T191500Z UID:1347895595383-0004@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Academic DTSTART:20130423T191500Z DTEND:20130423T210000Z SUMMARY:University Council DESCRIPTION: Price: free\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://events.msu.edu/acadgov/\n Contact name: Sherry Lott\n Contact phone: 517-355-2337\n Contact email: sll@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://acadgov.msu.edu\n LOCATION:International Center, Room 115 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130423T210000Z UID:1365531200971@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20130423T210000Z DTEND:20130423T232000Z SUMMARY:Sparty^2 DESCRIPTION: 5:00 - 6 p.m. & 6:20-7:20 p.m., Spartan Statue.

Even with a scientific upbringing, Balog had been a skeptic about climate change. But that first trip north opened his eyes to the biggest story in human history and sparked a challenge within him that would put his career and his very well-being at risk. Chasing Ice is the story of one man's mission to change the tide of history by gathering undeniable evidence of our changing planet. Within months of that first trip to Iceland, the photographer conceived the boldest expedition of his life: The Extreme Ice Survey. With a band of young adventurers in tow, Balog began deploying revolutionary time-lapse cameras across the brutal Arctic to capture a multi-year record of the world's changing glaciers. As the debate polarizes America and the intensity of natural disasters ramps up globally, Balog finds himself at the end of his tether. Battling untested technology in subzero conditions, he comes face to face with his own mortality. It takes years for Balog to see the fruits of his labor. His hauntingly beautiful videos compress years into seconds and capture ancient mountains of ice in motion as they disappear at a breathtaking rate. Chasing Ice depicts a photographer trying to deliver evidence and hope to our carbon-powered planet.\n\n Price: FREE for undergraduate students living in MSU residence halls, $2 for all others\n Sponsor: UAB\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.uabevents.com\n Contact name: University Activities Board\n Contact phone: 355-3354\n Contact email: uab@rhs.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://uabevents.com\n LOCATION:Wells Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130425T233000Z UID:1346945644446@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

Underlying the roundtable is the idea that understanding the Great Lakes' past (particularly in the 20th century) is fundamental for comprehending the present and considering the future. The central theme for this particular meeting will be the recent renegotiation of the Great Lakes Water Quality Agreements, which builds upon the 1972 and 1978 agreements. In addition to addressing the waters of the Great Lakes, the roundtable will engage other transborder issues that are inherently intertwined with environmental issues and water quality. The roundtable also will forge connections that will lead to linkages between institutions, academics, and policymakers on both sides of the border. Speakers include Fulbright Scholar Daniel Macfarlane, Consul General Roy Norton, State Senator Rebekah Warren.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Canadian Studies Center\n Contact phone: (517) 353-9349\n Contact email: csc@msu.edu\n LOCATION:International Center, Spartan Room C END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130426T040000Z UID:1360002682378-0076@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

Hypertension is a multi-organ disease that involves changes in nervous and immune system function. Sympathetic nerve activity is elevated in some hypertensive humans and in some animal models of hypertension, including the Deoxycorticosterone acetate-salt (DOCA-salt) model. DOCA-salt hypertension in rats is associated with the impairment of a α2-adrenergic autoreceptor (α2R), and increased level of superoxide (O2-) and macrophage (M) number in the mesenteric arterial (MA) adventitia. However, the relationship between M infiltration, O2- production and α2R impairment are unknown. This dissertation tested the hypothesis that as blood pressure increases in DOCA-salt rats, M infiltrate into the adventitia of MA. M release O2- that disrupts α2R function causing increased NE release and further increases in blood pressure. Time-course study was used to determine the temporal relationship between impaired function of sympathetic nerve terminal α2R and adventitial infiltration of pro-inflammatory M in MA from DOCA-salt hypertensive rats. Liposomal-encapsulated clodronate (LEC) was used to deplete adventitial M. The results of these studies revealed that pro-inflammatory M infiltration and increased O2- level in MA of DOCA-salt rats occurred after 10 days of initial blood pressure increase, but α2R impairment did not occur until a week after the infiltration of M. Furthermore, LEC prevented the development of the later phases of DOCA-salt hypertension by blocked the infiltration of M into the MA adventitia, reduced O2- level in the MA, and restored the α2R function. The novel aspect of this study is that it tested the hypothesis that M-derived O2- disrupts α2R function, which further contributes to the increase in blood pressure in DOCA-salt rats. Hypertension is a major public health concern. Therefore, clarifying the mechanism that leads to enhanced neurogenic vasoconstriction is important for new discoveries relevant to anti-hypertensive drug development. Furthermore, it is possible that vascular M markers could be used in the future to identify patients at risk for long-term changes in sympathetic nerve function at the first diagnosis of high blood pressure. \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Pharmacology & Toxicology\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://phmtox.msu.edu\n Contact name: Diane Hummel\n Contact phone: 884-3553\n Contact email: phm@msu.edu\n LOCATION:B448-449 Life Sciences END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130502T040000Z UID:1367603597279-0005@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

Idiosyncratic drug-induced liver injury (IDILI), a subset of DILI, occurs in a small fraction of patients taking a drug and, although rare, can result in severe liver injury or death. Although the mechanisms of IDILI are not well understood, it has been hypothesized that an episode of inflammatory stress can render an individual susceptible to IDILI, and several animal models have been developed based on this hypothesis. These models demonstrate that drugs associated with IDILI increase and prolong lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF) release. The prolongation in TNF release is critical to the pathogenesis of liver injury. Enhanced release of TNF is associated with production of other inflammatory mediators such as interferon-gamma (IFN) and with activation of neutrophils that release toxic factors such as elastase. TNF, IFN, and elastase contribute to hepatocellular damage in IDILI models in vivo and in vitro. The goal of the proposed studies is to test the hypothesis that the capacity of drugs to 1) increase TNF production by macrophages in vitro and 2) sensitize hepatocytes to injurious effects of inflammatory mediators (TNF, IFN, and elastase) correlates with their potential to cause IDILI in humans. The data generated from the proposed studies will be used to develop a regression-based, supervised learning tool to determine which combination of events (i.e. a drug's ability to increase TNF release from macrophages in vitro and/or a drug's ability to sensitize hepatocytes to inflammatory mediators) most accurately classifies the IDILI potential of a drug. Knowledge generated from these studies will be useful in developing an approach that could be used during preclinical safety evaluation to identify drug candidates with the potential to cause IDILI.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://phmtox.msu.edu/events/pdf/MAIURI%20A--Seminar%20Flyer%205-07-2013.pdf\n Contact name: Diane Hummel\n Contact phone: 884-3553\n Contact email: phm@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://phmtox.msu.edu/events/pdf/MAIURI%20A--Seminar%20Flyer%205-07-2013.pdf\n LOCATION:B448-449 Life Sciences END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130507T210000Z UID:1365441600809@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20130507T210000Z DTEND:20130508T035900Z SUMMARY:CREATE for STEM Mini-Conference DESCRIPTION: CREATE for STEM Institute will hold a mini-conference for MSU researchers and educational practitioners on May 7th and 8th, 2013 at the Wharton Center, Michigan State University, East Lansing, MI.

Emerging evidence supports SVD as an important risk factor in the development of stroke, dementia, and Parkinson's disease. Unfortunately, the mechanisms behind this neurological risk factor remain obscure, and there are no treatments for SVD. Our studies focus on the inherited disorder CADASIL, which results in early onset and severe SVD. CADASIL is caused by mutations in NOTCH3. We will describe investigations that have revealed new clearance pathways for the NOTCH3 protein and novel NOTCH3 binding proteins. Elucidation of molecules governing NOTCH3 biology may reveal possible treatment strategies and uncover core pathways that lead to SVD.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://phmtox.msu.edu/events/pdf/WANG%20M--Flyer.pdf\n Contact name: Diane Hummel\n Contact phone: 884-3553\n Contact email: phm@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://phmtox.msu.edu/events/pdf/WANG%20M--Flyer.pdf\n LOCATION:B448-449 Life Sciences END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130508T220000Z UID:1360181345125@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

From examples by internationally known architects to those who practiced solely in mid-Michigan, the modernist style represented a forward-looking approach to contemporary living. Prompted by the State Historic Preservation Office's "Michigan Modern" project (michiganmodern.org), this exhibition offers an appreciation of East Lansing's 1940 - 1970 architecture. It also considers the use of new technologies, modern designs for the home that were available locally, and contemporary art that was popularly collected by homeowners. \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu\n Contact phone: 517-355-2370\n Contact email: pr@museum.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu\n LOCATION:MSU Museum - Ground Floor Gallery END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130514T040000Z UID:1367604764642-0003@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

With attacks now staunched by a French-led counter-insurgency force, this summer will bring new democratic elections and the beginning of a process to reintegrate contending political parties and ethnic groups through a national Commission for Dialogue and Reconciliation.\n \n This exhibition is especially rich in examples of Malian textiles, including bogolan (mud-cloth) and mass-produced cotton prints. It provides an overview of the multiple arenas of Malian fabric production: traditional techniques, commercial and touristic production, and new approaches to fiber design created by contemporary Malian artists.\n \n Three-dimensional works, mostly created with wood, include masks, door locks (examples of traditional Dogon culture), and characteristic Malian CiWara antelope carvings.\n \n Malian photographer Tijani Sitou and American photographer Alexandra Huddleston provide contextual insight through their photos.\n \n The exhibition is curated by Chris Worland; her loans are supplemented by works lent by the MSU Museum and by RCAH faculty and students.\n\n Price: Free\n Sponsor: Residential College in the Arts and Humanities\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://rcah.msu.edu\n Contact name: Katie Wittenauer, RCAH Communications Manager\n Contact phone: (517) 884-6290\n Contact email: wittenau@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.rcah.msu.edu/news-events/events/mali-our-minds-exhibit\n LOCATION:Snyder-Phillips Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130516T161000Z UID:1357766318445@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

From examples by internationally known architects to those who practiced solely in mid-Michigan, the modernist style represented a forward-looking approach to contemporary living. Prompted by the State Historic Preservation Office's "Michigan Modern" project (michiganmodern.org), this exhibition offers an appreciation of East Lansing's 1940 - 1970 architecture. It also considers the use of new technologies, modern designs for the home that were available locally, and contemporary art that was popularly collected by homeowners. \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu\n Contact phone: 517-355-2370\n Contact email: pr@museum.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu\n LOCATION:MSU Museum - Ground Floor Gallery END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130518T040000Z UID:1367604764642-0007@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

Art Gallery DESCRIPTION: Mali On Our Minds, the summer exhibition of the Residential College in the Arts and Humanities' LookOut! Art Gallery, celebrates Malian culture through textiles, sculpture, and photography.\n \n The exhibit runs from May 16 through September 20, 2013. LookOut! Art Gallery is open Mondays through Fridays from noon to 2 p.m. It is located in C200 Snyder-Phillips Hall on the Michigan State University campus.\n \n About Mali On Our Minds:\n \n At a time when Malians have been threatened by separatists and fundamentalist Islamic incursions in the wake of the 2012 military coup that toppled their 20-year-old democracy, the RCAH honors the rich, living traditions of visual art that continue to invigorate and inspire Malians, providing lifelines to a better future. With attacks now staunched by a French-led counter-insurgency force, this summer will bring new democratic elections and the beginning of a process to reintegrate contending political parties and ethnic groups through a national Commission for Dialogue and Reconciliation.\n \n This exhibition is especially rich in examples of Malian textiles, including bogolan (mud-cloth) and mass-produced cotton prints. It provides an overview of the multiple arenas of Malian fabric production: traditional techniques, commercial and touristic production, and new approaches to fiber design created by contemporary Malian artists.\n \n Three-dimensional works, mostly created with wood, include masks, door locks (examples of traditional Dogon culture), and characteristic Malian CiWara antelope carvings.\n \n Malian photographer Tijani Sitou and American photographer Alexandra Huddleston provide contextual insight through their photos.\n \n The exhibition is curated by Chris Worland; her loans are supplemented by works lent by the MSU Museum and by RCAH faculty and students.\n\n Price: Free\n Sponsor: Residential College in the Arts and Humanities\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://rcah.msu.edu\n Contact name: Katie Wittenauer, RCAH Communications Manager\n Contact phone: (517) 884-6290\n Contact email: wittenau@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.rcah.msu.edu/news-events/events/mali-our-minds-exhibit\n LOCATION:Snyder-Phillips Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130520T180000Z UID:1363050671189@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20130520T180000Z DTEND:20130521T035900Z SUMMARY:Faculty Emeriti Association Lecture - Viticulture DESCRIPTION: Professor Paolo Sabbatini, Department of Horticulture, presents current studies in viticulture in Michigan.

With attacks now staunched by a French-led counter-insurgency force, this summer will bring new democratic elections and the beginning of a process to reintegrate contending political parties and ethnic groups through a national Commission for Dialogue and Reconciliation.\n \n This exhibition is especially rich in examples of Malian textiles, including bogolan (mud-cloth) and mass-produced cotton prints. It provides an overview of the multiple arenas of Malian fabric production: traditional techniques, commercial and touristic production, and new approaches to fiber design created by contemporary Malian artists.\n \n Three-dimensional works, mostly created with wood, include masks, door locks (examples of traditional Dogon culture), and characteristic Malian CiWara antelope carvings.\n \n Malian photographer Tijani Sitou and American photographer Alexandra Huddleston provide contextual insight through their photos.\n \n The exhibition is curated by Chris Worland; her loans are supplemented by works lent by the MSU Museum and by RCAH faculty and students.\n\n Price: Free\n Sponsor: Residential College in the Arts and Humanities\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://rcah.msu.edu\n Contact name: Katie Wittenauer, RCAH Communications Manager\n Contact phone: (517) 884-6290\n Contact email: wittenau@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.rcah.msu.edu/news-events/events/mali-our-minds-exhibit\n LOCATION:Snyder-Phillips Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130523T040000Z UID:1367603597279-0026@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

With attacks now staunched by a French-led counter-insurgency force, this summer will bring new democratic elections and the beginning of a process to reintegrate contending political parties and ethnic groups through a national Commission for Dialogue and Reconciliation.\n \n This exhibition is especially rich in examples of Malian textiles, including bogolan (mud-cloth) and mass-produced cotton prints. It provides an overview of the multiple arenas of Malian fabric production: traditional techniques, commercial and touristic production, and new approaches to fiber design created by contemporary Malian artists.\n \n Three-dimensional works, mostly created with wood, include masks, door locks (examples of traditional Dogon culture), and characteristic Malian CiWara antelope carvings.\n \n Malian photographer Tijani Sitou and American photographer Alexandra Huddleston provide contextual insight through their photos.\n \n The exhibition is curated by Chris Worland; her loans are supplemented by works lent by the MSU Museum and by RCAH faculty and students.\n\n Price: Free\n Sponsor: Residential College in the Arts and Humanities\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://rcah.msu.edu\n Contact name: Katie Wittenauer, RCAH Communications Manager\n Contact phone: (517) 884-6290\n Contact email: wittenau@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.rcah.msu.edu/news-events/events/mali-our-minds-exhibit\n LOCATION:Snyder-Phillips Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130528T040000Z UID:1367603597279-0031@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

With attacks now staunched by a French-led counter-insurgency force, this summer will bring new democratic elections and the beginning of a process to reintegrate contending political parties and ethnic groups through a national Commission for Dialogue and Reconciliation.\n \n This exhibition is especially rich in examples of Malian textiles, including bogolan (mud-cloth) and mass-produced cotton prints. It provides an overview of the multiple arenas of Malian fabric production: traditional techniques, commercial and touristic production, and new approaches to fiber design created by contemporary Malian artists.\n \n Three-dimensional works, mostly created with wood, include masks, door locks (examples of traditional Dogon culture), and characteristic Malian CiWara antelope carvings.\n \n Malian photographer Tijani Sitou and American photographer Alexandra Huddleston provide contextual insight through their photos.\n \n The exhibition is curated by Chris Worland; her loans are supplemented by works lent by the MSU Museum and by RCAH faculty and students.\n\n Price: Free\n Sponsor: Residential College in the Arts and Humanities\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://rcah.msu.edu\n Contact name: Katie Wittenauer, RCAH Communications Manager\n Contact phone: (517) 884-6290\n Contact email: wittenau@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.rcah.msu.edu/news-events/events/mali-our-minds-exhibit\n LOCATION:Snyder-Phillips Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130531T220000Z UID:1369225224377@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

From examples by internationally known architects to those who practiced solely in mid-Michigan, the modernist style represented a forward-looking approach to contemporary living. Prompted by the State Historic Preservation Office's "Michigan Modern" project (michiganmodern.org), this exhibition offers an appreciation of East Lansing's 1940 - 1970 architecture. It also considers the use of new technologies, modern designs for the home that were available locally, and contemporary art that was popularly collected by homeowners. \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu\n Contact phone: 517-355-2370\n Contact email: pr@museum.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu\n LOCATION:MSU Museum - Ground Floor Gallery END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130604T040000Z UID:1367604764642-0024@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

Art Gallery is open Mondays through Fridays from noon to 2 p.m. It is located in C200 Snyder-Phillips Hall on the Michigan State University campus.\n \n About Mali On Our Minds:\n \n At a time when Malians have been threatened by separatists and fundamentalist Islamic incursions in the wake of the 2012 military coup that toppled their 20-year-old democracy, the RCAH honors the rich, living traditions of visual art that continue to invigorate and inspire Malians, providing lifelines to a better future. With attacks now staunched by a French-led counter-insurgency force, this summer will bring new democratic elections and the beginning of a process to reintegrate contending political parties and ethnic groups through a national Commission for Dialogue and Reconciliation.\n \n This exhibition is especially rich in examples of Malian textiles, including bogolan (mud-cloth) and mass-produced cotton prints. It provides an overview of the multiple arenas of Malian fabric production: traditional techniques, commercial and touristic production, and new approaches to fiber design created by contemporary Malian artists.\n \n Three-dimensional works, mostly created with wood, include masks, door locks (examples of traditional Dogon culture), and characteristic Malian CiWara antelope carvings.\n \n Malian photographer Tijani Sitou and American photographer Alexandra Huddleston provide contextual insight through their photos.\n \n The exhibition is curated by Chris Worland; her loans are supplemented by works lent by the MSU Museum and by RCAH faculty and students.\n\n Price: Free\n Sponsor: Residential College in the Arts and Humanities\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://rcah.msu.edu\n Contact name: Katie Wittenauer, RCAH Communications Manager\n Contact phone: (517) 884-6290\n Contact email: wittenau@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.rcah.msu.edu/news-events/events/mali-our-minds-exhibit\n LOCATION:Snyder-Phillips Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130611T040000Z UID:1367603597279-0045@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

It provides an overview of the multiple arenas of Malian fabric production: traditional techniques, commercial and touristic production, and new approaches to fiber design created by contemporary Malian artists.\n \n Three-dimensional works, mostly created with wood, include masks, door locks (examples of traditional Dogon culture), and characteristic Malian CiWara antelope carvings.\n \n Malian photographer Tijani Sitou and American photographer Alexandra Huddleston provide contextual insight through their photos.\n \n The exhibition is curated by Chris Worland; her loans are supplemented by works lent by the MSU Museum and by RCAH faculty and students.\n\n Price: Free\n Sponsor: Residential College in the Arts and Humanities\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://rcah.msu.edu\n Contact name: Katie Wittenauer, RCAH Communications Manager\n Contact phone: (517) 884-6290\n Contact email: wittenau@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.rcah.msu.edu/news-events/events/mali-our-minds-exhibit\n LOCATION:Snyder-Phillips Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130612T040000Z UID:1370266974237@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20130612 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20130613 SUMMARY:MSU IT Conference DESCRIPTION: IT Services at MSU started hosting an IT conference seven years ago to build a community of IT at MSU and to challenge individuals in this exciting field to work across institutional boundaries, share best practices, keep up with new technology, and encourage collaboration.

Art Gallery DESCRIPTION: Mali On Our Minds, the summer exhibition of the Residential College in the Arts and Humanities' LookOut! Art Gallery, celebrates Malian culture through textiles, sculpture, and photography.\n \n The exhibit runs from May 16 through September 20, 2013. LookOut! Art Gallery is open Mondays through Fridays from noon to 2 p.m. It is located in C200 Snyder-Phillips Hall on the Michigan State University campus.\n \n About Mali On Our Minds:\n \n At a time when Malians have been threatened by separatists and fundamentalist Islamic incursions in the wake of the 2012 military coup that toppled their 20-year-old democracy, the RCAH honors the rich, living traditions of visual art that continue to invigorate and inspire Malians, providing lifelines to a better future. With attacks now staunched by a French-led counter-insurgency force, this summer will bring new democratic elections and the beginning of a process to reintegrate contending political parties and ethnic groups through a national Commission for Dialogue and Reconciliation.\n \n This exhibition is especially rich in examples of Malian textiles, including bogolan (mud-cloth) and mass-produced cotton prints. It provides an overview of the multiple arenas of Malian fabric production: traditional techniques, commercial and touristic production, and new approaches to fiber design created by contemporary Malian artists.\n \n Three-dimensional works, mostly created with wood, include masks, door locks (examples of traditional Dogon culture), and characteristic Malian CiWara antelope carvings.\n \n Malian photographer Tijani Sitou and American photographer Alexandra Huddleston provide contextual insight through their photos.\n \n The exhibition is curated by Chris Worland; her loans are supplemented by works lent by the MSU Museum and by RCAH faculty and students.\n\n Price: Free\n Sponsor: Residential College in the Arts and Humanities\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://rcah.msu.edu\n Contact name: Katie Wittenauer, RCAH Communications Manager\n Contact phone: (517) 884-6290\n Contact email: wittenau@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.rcah.msu.edu/news-events/events/mali-our-minds-exhibit\n LOCATION:Snyder-Phillips Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130618T040000Z UID:1367603597279-0052@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

Art Gallery DESCRIPTION: Mali On Our Minds, the summer exhibition of the Residential College in the Arts and Humanities' LookOut! Art Gallery, celebrates Malian culture through textiles, sculpture, and photography.\n \n The exhibit runs from May 16 through September 20, 2013. LookOut! Art Gallery is open Mondays through Fridays from noon to 2 p.m. It is located in C200 Snyder-Phillips Hall on the Michigan State University campus.\n \n About Mali On Our Minds:\n \n At a time when Malians have been threatened by separatists and fundamentalist Islamic incursions in the wake of the 2012 military coup that toppled their 20-year-old democracy, the RCAH honors the rich, living traditions of visual art that continue to invigorate and inspire Malians, providing lifelines to a better future. With attacks now staunched by a French-led counter-insurgency force, this summer will bring new democratic elections and the beginning of a process to reintegrate contending political parties and ethnic groups through a national Commission for Dialogue and Reconciliation.\n \n This exhibition is especially rich in examples of Malian textiles, including bogolan (mud-cloth) and mass-produced cotton prints. It provides an overview of the multiple arenas of Malian fabric production: traditional techniques, commercial and touristic production, and new approaches to fiber design created by contemporary Malian artists.\n \n Three-dimensional works, mostly created with wood, include masks, door locks (examples of traditional Dogon culture), and characteristic Malian CiWara antelope carvings.\n \n Malian photographer Tijani Sitou and American photographer Alexandra Huddleston provide contextual insight through their photos.\n \n The exhibition is curated by Chris Worland; her loans are supplemented by works lent by the MSU Museum and by RCAH faculty and students.\n\n Price: Free\n Sponsor: Residential College in the Arts and Humanities\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://rcah.msu.edu\n Contact name: Katie Wittenauer, RCAH Communications Manager\n Contact phone: (517) 884-6290\n Contact email: wittenau@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.rcah.msu.edu/news-events/events/mali-our-minds-exhibit\n LOCATION:Snyder-Phillips Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130627T040000Z UID:1367603597279-0061@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

Art Gallery DESCRIPTION: Mali On Our Minds, the summer exhibition of the Residential College in the Arts and Humanities' LookOut! Art Gallery, celebrates Malian culture through textiles, sculpture, and photography.\n \n The exhibit runs from May 16 through September 20, 2013. LookOut! Art Gallery is open Mondays through Fridays from noon to 2 p.m. It is located in C200 Snyder-Phillips Hall on the Michigan State University campus.\n \n About Mali On Our Minds:\n \n At a time when Malians have been threatened by separatists and fundamentalist Islamic incursions in the wake of the 2012 military coup that toppled their 20-year-old democracy, the RCAH honors the rich, living traditions of visual art that continue to invigorate and inspire Malians, providing lifelines to a better future. With attacks now staunched by a French-led counter-insurgency force, this summer will bring new democratic elections and the beginning of a process to reintegrate contending political parties and ethnic groups through a national Commission for Dialogue and Reconciliation.\n \n This exhibition is especially rich in examples of Malian textiles, including bogolan (mud-cloth) and mass-produced cotton prints. It provides an overview of the multiple arenas of Malian fabric production: traditional techniques, commercial and touristic production, and new approaches to fiber design created by contemporary Malian artists.\n \n Three-dimensional works, mostly created with wood, include masks, door locks (examples of traditional Dogon culture), and characteristic Malian CiWara antelope carvings.\n \n Malian photographer Tijani Sitou and American photographer Alexandra Huddleston provide contextual insight through their photos.\n \n The exhibition is curated by Chris Worland; her loans are supplemented by works lent by the MSU Museum and by RCAH faculty and students.\n\n Price: Free\n Sponsor: Residential College in the Arts and Humanities\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://rcah.msu.edu\n Contact name: Katie Wittenauer, RCAH Communications Manager\n Contact phone: (517) 884-6290\n Contact email: wittenau@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.rcah.msu.edu/news-events/events/mali-our-minds-exhibit\n LOCATION:Snyder-Phillips Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130702T040000Z UID:1372346676222-0002@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

Art Gallery is open Mondays through Fridays from noon to 2 p.m. It is located in C200 Snyder-Phillips Hall on the Michigan State University campus.\n \n About Mali On Our Minds:\n \n At a time when Malians have been threatened by separatists and fundamentalist Islamic incursions in the wake of the 2012 military coup that toppled their 20-year-old democracy, the RCAH honors the rich, living traditions of visual art that continue to invigorate and inspire Malians, providing lifelines to a better future. With attacks now staunched by a French-led counter-insurgency force, this summer will bring new democratic elections and the beginning of a process to reintegrate contending political parties and ethnic groups through a national Commission for Dialogue and Reconciliation.\n \n This exhibition is especially rich in examples of Malian textiles, including bogolan (mud-cloth) and mass-produced cotton prints. It provides an overview of the multiple arenas of Malian fabric production: traditional techniques, commercial and touristic production, and new approaches to fiber design created by contemporary Malian artists.\n \n Three-dimensional works, mostly created with wood, include masks, door locks (examples of traditional Dogon culture), and characteristic Malian CiWara antelope carvings.\n \n Malian photographer Tijani Sitou and American photographer Alexandra Huddleston provide contextual insight through their photos.\n \n The exhibition is curated by Chris Worland; her loans are supplemented by works lent by the MSU Museum and by RCAH faculty and students.\n\n Price: Free\n Sponsor: Residential College in the Arts and Humanities\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://rcah.msu.edu\n Contact name: Katie Wittenauer, RCAH Communications Manager\n Contact phone: (517) 884-6290\n Contact email: wittenau@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.rcah.msu.edu/news-events/events/mali-our-minds-exhibit\n LOCATION:Snyder-Phillips Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130703T220000Z UID:1366993906063@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

Art Gallery DESCRIPTION: Mali On Our Minds, the summer exhibition of the Residential College in the Arts and Humanities' LookOut! Art Gallery, celebrates Malian culture through textiles, sculpture, and photography.\n \n The exhibit runs from May 16 through September 20, 2013. LookOut! Art Gallery is open Mondays through Fridays from noon to 2 p.m. It is located in C200 Snyder-Phillips Hall on the Michigan State University campus.\n \n About Mali On Our Minds:\n \n At a time when Malians have been threatened by separatists and fundamentalist Islamic incursions in the wake of the 2012 military coup that toppled their 20-year-old democracy, the RCAH honors the rich, living traditions of visual art that continue to invigorate and inspire Malians, providing lifelines to a better future. With attacks now staunched by a French-led counter-insurgency force, this summer will bring new democratic elections and the beginning of a process to reintegrate contending political parties and ethnic groups through a national Commission for Dialogue and Reconciliation.\n \n This exhibition is especially rich in examples of Malian textiles, including bogolan (mud-cloth) and mass-produced cotton prints. It provides an overview of the multiple arenas of Malian fabric production: traditional techniques, commercial and touristic production, and new approaches to fiber design created by contemporary Malian artists.\n \n Three-dimensional works, mostly created with wood, include masks, door locks (examples of traditional Dogon culture), and characteristic Malian CiWara antelope carvings.\n \n Malian photographer Tijani Sitou and American photographer Alexandra Huddleston provide contextual insight through their photos.\n \n The exhibition is curated by Chris Worland; her loans are supplemented by works lent by the MSU Museum and by RCAH faculty and students.\n\n Price: Free\n Sponsor: Residential College in the Arts and Humanities\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://rcah.msu.edu\n Contact name: Katie Wittenauer, RCAH Communications Manager\n Contact phone: (517) 884-6290\n Contact email: wittenau@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.rcah.msu.edu/news-events/events/mali-our-minds-exhibit\n LOCATION:Snyder-Phillips Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130708T180000Z UID:1368042914931@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Training DTSTART:20130708T180000Z DTEND:20130708T193000Z SUMMARY:Finding Nonprofit Funding DESCRIPTION: \n Nonprofit employees or individuals interested in helping nonprofit organizations raise money for activities should consider attending this free session.

With attacks now staunched by a French-led counter-insurgency force, this summer will bring new democratic elections and the beginning of a process to reintegrate contending political parties and ethnic groups through a national Commission for Dialogue and Reconciliation.\n \n This exhibition is especially rich in examples of Malian textiles, including bogolan (mud-cloth) and mass-produced cotton prints. It provides an overview of the multiple arenas of Malian fabric production: traditional techniques, commercial and touristic production, and new approaches to fiber design created by contemporary Malian artists.\n \n Three-dimensional works, mostly created with wood, include masks, door locks (examples of traditional Dogon culture), and characteristic Malian CiWara antelope carvings.\n \n Malian photographer Tijani Sitou and American photographer Alexandra Huddleston provide contextual insight through their photos.\n \n The exhibition is curated by Chris Worland; her loans are supplemented by works lent by the MSU Museum and by RCAH faculty and students.\n\n Price: Free\n Sponsor: Residential College in the Arts and Humanities\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://rcah.msu.edu\n Contact name: Katie Wittenauer, RCAH Communications Manager\n Contact phone: (517) 884-6290\n Contact email: wittenau@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.rcah.msu.edu/news-events/events/mali-our-minds-exhibit\n LOCATION:Snyder-Phillips Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130710T220000Z UID:1366993972505@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

With attacks now staunched by a French-led counter-insurgency force, this summer will bring new democratic elections and the beginning of a process to reintegrate contending political parties and ethnic groups through a national Commission for Dialogue and Reconciliation.\n \n This exhibition is especially rich in examples of Malian textiles, including bogolan (mud-cloth) and mass-produced cotton prints. It provides an overview of the multiple arenas of Malian fabric production: traditional techniques, commercial and touristic production, and new approaches to fiber design created by contemporary Malian artists.\n \n Three-dimensional works, mostly created with wood, include masks, door locks (examples of traditional Dogon culture), and characteristic Malian CiWara antelope carvings.\n \n Malian photographer Tijani Sitou and American photographer Alexandra Huddleston provide contextual insight through their photos.\n \n The exhibition is curated by Chris Worland; her loans are supplemented by works lent by the MSU Museum and by RCAH faculty and students.\n\n Price: Free\n Sponsor: Residential College in the Arts and Humanities\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://rcah.msu.edu\n Contact name: Katie Wittenauer, RCAH Communications Manager\n Contact phone: (517) 884-6290\n Contact email: wittenau@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.rcah.msu.edu/news-events/events/mali-our-minds-exhibit\n LOCATION:Snyder-Phillips Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130716T040000Z UID:1372346676222-0016@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

It provides an overview of the multiple arenas of Malian fabric production: traditional techniques, commercial and touristic production, and new approaches to fiber design created by contemporary Malian artists.\n \n Three-dimensional works, mostly created with wood, include masks, door locks (examples of traditional Dogon culture), and characteristic Malian CiWara antelope carvings.\n \n Malian photographer Tijani Sitou and American photographer Alexandra Huddleston provide contextual insight through their photos.\n \n The exhibition is curated by Chris Worland; her loans are supplemented by works lent by the MSU Museum and by RCAH faculty and students.\n\n Price: Free\n Sponsor: Residential College in the Arts and Humanities\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://rcah.msu.edu\n Contact name: Katie Wittenauer, RCAH Communications Manager\n Contact phone: (517) 884-6290\n Contact email: wittenau@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.rcah.msu.edu/news-events/events/mali-our-minds-exhibit\n LOCATION:Snyder-Phillips Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130720T000000Z UID:1369316992002@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Public Programs DTSTART:20130720T000000Z DTEND:20130720T013000Z SUMMARY:Bad Astronomy DESCRIPTION: Abrams Planetarium weekly public show, last Friday show until fall, is "Bad Astronomy."

Art Gallery is open Mondays through Fridays from noon to 2 p.m. It is located in C200 Snyder-Phillips Hall on the Michigan State University campus.\n \n About Mali On Our Minds:\n \n At a time when Malians have been threatened by separatists and fundamentalist Islamic incursions in the wake of the 2012 military coup that toppled their 20-year-old democracy, the RCAH honors the rich, living traditions of visual art that continue to invigorate and inspire Malians, providing lifelines to a better future. With attacks now staunched by a French-led counter-insurgency force, this summer will bring new democratic elections and the beginning of a process to reintegrate contending political parties and ethnic groups through a national Commission for Dialogue and Reconciliation.\n \n This exhibition is especially rich in examples of Malian textiles, including bogolan (mud-cloth) and mass-produced cotton prints. It provides an overview of the multiple arenas of Malian fabric production: traditional techniques, commercial and touristic production, and new approaches to fiber design created by contemporary Malian artists.\n \n Three-dimensional works, mostly created with wood, include masks, door locks (examples of traditional Dogon culture), and characteristic Malian CiWara antelope carvings.\n \n Malian photographer Tijani Sitou and American photographer Alexandra Huddleston provide contextual insight through their photos.\n \n The exhibition is curated by Chris Worland; her loans are supplemented by works lent by the MSU Museum and by RCAH faculty and students.\n\n Price: Free\n Sponsor: Residential College in the Arts and Humanities\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://rcah.msu.edu\n Contact name: Katie Wittenauer, RCAH Communications Manager\n Contact phone: (517) 884-6290\n Contact email: wittenau@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.rcah.msu.edu/news-events/events/mali-our-minds-exhibit\n LOCATION:Snyder-Phillips Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130724T040000Z UID:1372346676222-0024@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

Art Gallery DESCRIPTION: Mali On Our Minds, the summer exhibition of the Residential College in the Arts and Humanities' LookOut! Art Gallery, celebrates Malian culture through textiles, sculpture, and photography.\n \n The exhibit runs from May 16 through September 20, 2013. LookOut! Art Gallery is open Mondays through Fridays from noon to 2 p.m. It is located in C200 Snyder-Phillips Hall on the Michigan State University campus.\n \n About Mali On Our Minds:\n \n At a time when Malians have been threatened by separatists and fundamentalist Islamic incursions in the wake of the 2012 military coup that toppled their 20-year-old democracy, the RCAH honors the rich, living traditions of visual art that continue to invigorate and inspire Malians, providing lifelines to a better future. With attacks now staunched by a French-led counter-insurgency force, this summer will bring new democratic elections and the beginning of a process to reintegrate contending political parties and ethnic groups through a national Commission for Dialogue and Reconciliation.\n \n This exhibition is especially rich in examples of Malian textiles, including bogolan (mud-cloth) and mass-produced cotton prints. It provides an overview of the multiple arenas of Malian fabric production: traditional techniques, commercial and touristic production, and new approaches to fiber design created by contemporary Malian artists.\n \n Three-dimensional works, mostly created with wood, include masks, door locks (examples of traditional Dogon culture), and characteristic Malian CiWara antelope carvings.\n \n Malian photographer Tijani Sitou and American photographer Alexandra Huddleston provide contextual insight through their photos.\n \n The exhibition is curated by Chris Worland; her loans are supplemented by works lent by the MSU Museum and by RCAH faculty and students.\n\n Price: Free\n Sponsor: Residential College in the Arts and Humanities\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://rcah.msu.edu\n Contact name: Katie Wittenauer, RCAH Communications Manager\n Contact phone: (517) 884-6290\n Contact email: wittenau@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.rcah.msu.edu/news-events/events/mali-our-minds-exhibit\n LOCATION:Snyder-Phillips Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130726T171500Z UID:1372788650236@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20130726T171500Z DTEND:20130726T183000Z SUMMARY:Department of Chemistry Organic Seminar DESCRIPTION: Professor Hidetoshi Tokuyama, Graduate School of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Tohoku University, will present a Department of Chemistry Organic Seminar titled "Development of Synthetic Methodology and Total Synthesis of N-Heterocyclic Natural Products."

With attacks now staunched by a French-led counter-insurgency force, this summer will bring new democratic elections and the beginning of a process to reintegrate contending political parties and ethnic groups through a national Commission for Dialogue and Reconciliation.\n \n This exhibition is especially rich in examples of Malian textiles, including bogolan (mud-cloth) and mass-produced cotton prints. It provides an overview of the multiple arenas of Malian fabric production: traditional techniques, commercial and touristic production, and new approaches to fiber design created by contemporary Malian artists.\n \n Three-dimensional works, mostly created with wood, include masks, door locks (examples of traditional Dogon culture), and characteristic Malian CiWara antelope carvings.\n \n Malian photographer Tijani Sitou and American photographer Alexandra Huddleston provide contextual insight through their photos.\n \n The exhibition is curated by Chris Worland; her loans are supplemented by works lent by the MSU Museum and by RCAH faculty and students.\n\n Price: Free\n Sponsor: Residential College in the Arts and Humanities\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://rcah.msu.edu\n Contact name: Katie Wittenauer, RCAH Communications Manager\n Contact phone: (517) 884-6290\n Contact email: wittenau@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.rcah.msu.edu/news-events/events/mali-our-minds-exhibit\n LOCATION:Snyder-Phillips Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130805T180000Z UID:1368043019576@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Training DTSTART:20130805T180000Z DTEND:20130805T193000Z SUMMARY:Finding Nonprofit Funding DESCRIPTION: Nonprofit employees or individuals interested in helping nonprofit organizations raise money for activities should consider attending this free session.

Art Gallery, celebrates Malian culture through textiles, sculpture, and photography.\n \n The exhibit runs from May 16 through September 20, 2013. LookOut! Art Gallery is open Mondays through Fridays from noon to 2 p.m. It is located in C200 Snyder-Phillips Hall on the Michigan State University campus.\n \n About Mali On Our Minds:\n \n At a time when Malians have been threatened by separatists and fundamentalist Islamic incursions in the wake of the 2012 military coup that toppled their 20-year-old democracy, the RCAH honors the rich, living traditions of visual art that continue to invigorate and inspire Malians, providing lifelines to a better future. With attacks now staunched by a French-led counter-insurgency force, this summer will bring new democratic elections and the beginning of a process to reintegrate contending political parties and ethnic groups through a national Commission for Dialogue and Reconciliation.\n \n This exhibition is especially rich in examples of Malian textiles, including bogolan (mud-cloth) and mass-produced cotton prints. It provides an overview of the multiple arenas of Malian fabric production: traditional techniques, commercial and touristic production, and new approaches to fiber design created by contemporary Malian artists.\n \n Three-dimensional works, mostly created with wood, include masks, door locks (examples of traditional Dogon culture), and characteristic Malian CiWara antelope carvings.\n \n Malian photographer Tijani Sitou and American photographer Alexandra Huddleston provide contextual insight through their photos.\n \n The exhibition is curated by Chris Worland; her loans are supplemented by works lent by the MSU Museum and by RCAH faculty and students.\n\n Price: Free\n Sponsor: Residential College in the Arts and Humanities\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://rcah.msu.edu\n Contact name: Katie Wittenauer, RCAH Communications Manager\n Contact phone: (517) 884-6290\n Contact email: wittenau@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.rcah.msu.edu/news-events/events/mali-our-minds-exhibit\n LOCATION:Snyder-Phillips Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130808T040000Z UID:1372346676222-0039@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

From examples by internationally known architects to those who practiced solely in mid-Michigan, the modernist style represented a forward-looking approach to contemporary living. Prompted by the State Historic Preservation Office's "Michigan Modern" project (michiganmodern.org), this exhibition offers an appreciation of East Lansing's 1940 - 1970 architecture. It also considers the use of new technologies, modern designs for the home that were available locally, and contemporary art that was popularly collected by homeowners. \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu\n Contact phone: 517-355-2370\n Contact email: pr@museum.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu\n LOCATION:MSU Museum - Ground Floor Gallery END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130812T160000Z UID:1369807726826-0063@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

Art Gallery DESCRIPTION: Mali On Our Minds, the summer exhibition of the Residential College in the Arts and Humanities' LookOut! Art Gallery, celebrates Malian culture through textiles, sculpture, and photography.\n \n The exhibit runs from May 16 through September 20, 2013. LookOut! Art Gallery is open Mondays through Fridays from noon to 2 p.m. It is located in C200 Snyder-Phillips Hall on the Michigan State University campus.\n \n About Mali On Our Minds:\n \n At a time when Malians have been threatened by separatists and fundamentalist Islamic incursions in the wake of the 2012 military coup that toppled their 20-year-old democracy, the RCAH honors the rich, living traditions of visual art that continue to invigorate and inspire Malians, providing lifelines to a better future. With attacks now staunched by a French-led counter-insurgency force, this summer will bring new democratic elections and the beginning of a process to reintegrate contending political parties and ethnic groups through a national Commission for Dialogue and Reconciliation.\n \n This exhibition is especially rich in examples of Malian textiles, including bogolan (mud-cloth) and mass-produced cotton prints. It provides an overview of the multiple arenas of Malian fabric production: traditional techniques, commercial and touristic production, and new approaches to fiber design created by contemporary Malian artists.\n \n Three-dimensional works, mostly created with wood, include masks, door locks (examples of traditional Dogon culture), and characteristic Malian CiWara antelope carvings.\n \n Malian photographer Tijani Sitou and American photographer Alexandra Huddleston provide contextual insight through their photos.\n \n The exhibition is curated by Chris Worland; her loans are supplemented by works lent by the MSU Museum and by RCAH faculty and students.\n\n Price: Free\n Sponsor: Residential College in the Arts and Humanities\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://rcah.msu.edu\n Contact name: Katie Wittenauer, RCAH Communications Manager\n Contact phone: (517) 884-6290\n Contact email: wittenau@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.rcah.msu.edu/news-events/events/mali-our-minds-exhibit\n LOCATION:Snyder-Phillips Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130812T200000Z UID:1368537720159@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

Art Gallery is open Mondays through Fridays from noon to 2 p.m. It is located in C200 Snyder-Phillips Hall on the Michigan State University campus.\n \n About Mali On Our Minds:\n \n At a time when Malians have been threatened by separatists and fundamentalist Islamic incursions in the wake of the 2012 military coup that toppled their 20-year-old democracy, the RCAH honors the rich, living traditions of visual art that continue to invigorate and inspire Malians, providing lifelines to a better future. With attacks now staunched by a French-led counter-insurgency force, this summer will bring new democratic elections and the beginning of a process to reintegrate contending political parties and ethnic groups through a national Commission for Dialogue and Reconciliation.\n \n This exhibition is especially rich in examples of Malian textiles, including bogolan (mud-cloth) and mass-produced cotton prints. It provides an overview of the multiple arenas of Malian fabric production: traditional techniques, commercial and touristic production, and new approaches to fiber design created by contemporary Malian artists.\n \n Three-dimensional works, mostly created with wood, include masks, door locks (examples of traditional Dogon culture), and characteristic Malian CiWara antelope carvings.\n \n Malian photographer Tijani Sitou and American photographer Alexandra Huddleston provide contextual insight through their photos.\n \n The exhibition is curated by Chris Worland; her loans are supplemented by works lent by the MSU Museum and by RCAH faculty and students.\n\n Price: Free\n Sponsor: Residential College in the Arts and Humanities\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://rcah.msu.edu\n Contact name: Katie Wittenauer, RCAH Communications Manager\n Contact phone: (517) 884-6290\n Contact email: wittenau@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.rcah.msu.edu/news-events/events/mali-our-minds-exhibit\n LOCATION:Snyder-Phillips Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130817T040000Z UID:1372346676222-0048@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

From examples by internationally known architects to those who practiced solely in mid-Michigan, the modernist style represented a forward-looking approach to contemporary living. Prompted by the State Historic Preservation Office's "Michigan Modern" project (michiganmodern.org), this exhibition offers an appreciation of East Lansing's 1940 - 1970 architecture. It also considers the use of new technologies, modern designs for the home that were available locally, and contemporary art that was popularly collected by homeowners. \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu\n Contact phone: 517-355-2370\n Contact email: pr@museum.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu\n LOCATION:MSU Museum - Ground Floor Gallery END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130817T130000Z UID:1368537843023@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

Art Gallery DESCRIPTION: Mali On Our Minds, the summer exhibition of the Residential College in the Arts and Humanities' LookOut! Art Gallery, celebrates Malian culture through textiles, sculpture, and photography.\n \n The exhibit runs from May 16 through September 20, 2013. LookOut! Art Gallery is open Mondays through Fridays from noon to 2 p.m. It is located in C200 Snyder-Phillips Hall on the Michigan State University campus.\n \n About Mali On Our Minds:\n \n At a time when Malians have been threatened by separatists and fundamentalist Islamic incursions in the wake of the 2012 military coup that toppled their 20-year-old democracy, the RCAH honors the rich, living traditions of visual art that continue to invigorate and inspire Malians, providing lifelines to a better future. With attacks now staunched by a French-led counter-insurgency force, this summer will bring new democratic elections and the beginning of a process to reintegrate contending political parties and ethnic groups through a national Commission for Dialogue and Reconciliation.\n \n This exhibition is especially rich in examples of Malian textiles, including bogolan (mud-cloth) and mass-produced cotton prints. It provides an overview of the multiple arenas of Malian fabric production: traditional techniques, commercial and touristic production, and new approaches to fiber design created by contemporary Malian artists.\n \n Three-dimensional works, mostly created with wood, include masks, door locks (examples of traditional Dogon culture), and characteristic Malian CiWara antelope carvings.\n \n Malian photographer Tijani Sitou and American photographer Alexandra Huddleston provide contextual insight through their photos.\n \n The exhibition is curated by Chris Worland; her loans are supplemented by works lent by the MSU Museum and by RCAH faculty and students.\n\n Price: Free\n Sponsor: Residential College in the Arts and Humanities\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://rcah.msu.edu\n Contact name: Katie Wittenauer, RCAH Communications Manager\n Contact phone: (517) 884-6290\n Contact email: wittenau@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.rcah.msu.edu/news-events/events/mali-our-minds-exhibit\n LOCATION:Snyder-Phillips Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130827T140000Z UID:1378228845759-0002@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

Sunseri Professor of Statistics and Mathematics at Stanford University, will take a careful look at some of our most primitive images of random phenomena: flipping a coin, spinning a roulette wheel and shuffling cards. For each, there is a well-developed mathematical theory, BUT comparison with the real thing shows that we are lazy and that, often, the usual laws of probability break down. This has implications for both the casino and for routine mathematical modeling (big models and big data). \n \n Diaconis will give a second lecture in the Departments of Statistics and Probability and Mathematics at 3:00 pm, Friday, August 30, in C405 Wells Hall. The title of that talk is "Mathematics and Statistics for Large Networks."\n \n Diaconis is a brilliant and innovative scientist-mathematician-probabilist-statistician and a very entertaining speaker. Diaconis has contributed much to probability, statistics and mathematics. He has received numerous honorary degrees and awards including a MacArthur Fellowship, 1982 - 1987, and election to the National Academy of Sciences, 1995.\n \n The John Kinney Memorial Endowment Fund was established by Larry and Lois Dimmitt to support lectures in the memory of John Kinney. Professor Kinney was a member of the Departments of Statistics and Probability and Mathematics at MSU, 1965 - 1983. \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Statistics and Probability\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.stt.msu.edu/\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.stt.msu.edu/lecture_series/kinney.aspx\n LOCATION:1400 Biomedical and Physical Sciences Building END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130829T160000Z UID:1369807726826-0076@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

Art Gallery DESCRIPTION: Mali On Our Minds, the summer exhibition of the Residential College in the Arts and Humanities' LookOut! Art Gallery, celebrates Malian culture through textiles, sculpture, and photography.\n \n The exhibit runs from May 16 through September 20, 2013. LookOut! Art Gallery is open Mondays through Fridays from noon to 2 p.m. It is located in C200 Snyder-Phillips Hall on the Michigan State University campus.\n \n About Mali On Our Minds:\n \n At a time when Malians have been threatened by separatists and fundamentalist Islamic incursions in the wake of the 2012 military coup that toppled their 20-year-old democracy, the RCAH honors the rich, living traditions of visual art that continue to invigorate and inspire Malians, providing lifelines to a better future. With attacks now staunched by a French-led counter-insurgency force, this summer will bring new democratic elections and the beginning of a process to reintegrate contending political parties and ethnic groups through a national Commission for Dialogue and Reconciliation.\n \n This exhibition is especially rich in examples of Malian textiles, including bogolan (mud-cloth) and mass-produced cotton prints. It provides an overview of the multiple arenas of Malian fabric production: traditional techniques, commercial and touristic production, and new approaches to fiber design created by contemporary Malian artists.\n \n Three-dimensional works, mostly created with wood, include masks, door locks (examples of traditional Dogon culture), and characteristic Malian CiWara antelope carvings.\n \n Malian photographer Tijani Sitou and American photographer Alexandra Huddleston provide contextual insight through their photos.\n \n The exhibition is curated by Chris Worland; her loans are supplemented by works lent by the MSU Museum and by RCAH faculty and students.\n\n Price: Free\n Sponsor: Residential College in the Arts and Humanities\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://rcah.msu.edu\n Contact name: Katie Wittenauer, RCAH Communications Manager\n Contact phone: (517) 884-6290\n Contact email: wittenau@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.rcah.msu.edu/news-events/events/mali-our-minds-exhibit\n LOCATION:Snyder-Phillips Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130906T161500Z UID:1376419605156@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Public Programs DTSTART:20130906T161500Z DTEND:20130906T173000Z SUMMARY:Our Daily Work/ Our Daily Lives - Brown Bag Series DESCRIPTION: Today's presentation is titled,"Being Flint: Life and Labor in the Shrinking City," presented by Gordon Young.

DESCRIPTION: Samuel G. Freedman, award winning teacher and writer, will share experiences from his newest book, Breaking the Line: The Season in Black College Football That Transformed the Sport and Changed the Course of Civil Rights, which brings to life the historic battle for the 1967 black college football championship between Florida A & M University and Grambling College.\n \n Breaking the Line brings to life the historic battle for the 1967 black college football championship. But the book is about more than a single game, or even about college athletics. Because it was played at a time of great social and educational unrest in the U.S., with challenges to the mission and organization of education at all levels, including Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), the game represents a dramatic moment in our history. Samuel G. Freedman traces the lives, tribulations , and triumphs of pivotal figures at Florida A and M University and Grambling College (now Grambling University): presidents, football coaches, and star players. We watch the season of 1967 unfold against the backdrop of the increasing role of intercollegiate athletics at HBCUs and the changing racial politics of higher education in the South. The story culminates in a riveting game reflecting the considerable social and educational tensions that led up to it. The season of 1967 helped compel the segregated colleges of the South to integrate their teams and redefined who could play quarterback in the NFL, and who could be a head coach. Breaking the Line compels us to think about the impact of athletics on higher education, in the particular circumstances of HBCUs four decades ago and, inevitably, in the conditions of higher education today.\n \n \n Samuel G. Freedman is an award winning teacher and writer. He is a Professor in the Graduate School of Journalism at Columbia University and the author of several widely admired books on teaching, religion, and American social life. Professor Freedman is now the religion columnist for the New York Times after several years writing its regular education column.\n \n James Harris, now an executive with the Detroit Lions and who was Grambling College's quarterback in the 1967 black college football championship game against Florida A&M, will also participate in the program. He is featured in Breaking the Line.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Karla Bellingar\n Contact phone: (517) 353-5187\n Contact email: haleadm@msu.edu\n LOCATION:252 Erickson Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130910T160000Z UID:1369807726826-0084@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

Art Gallery DESCRIPTION: Mali On Our Minds, the summer exhibition of the Residential College in the Arts and Humanities' LookOut! Art Gallery, celebrates Malian culture through textiles, sculpture, and photography.\n \n The exhibit runs from May 16 through September 20, 2013. LookOut! Art Gallery is open Mondays through Fridays from noon to 2 p.m. It is located in C200 Snyder-Phillips Hall on the Michigan State University campus.\n \n About Mali On Our Minds:\n \n At a time when Malians have been threatened by separatists and fundamentalist Islamic incursions in the wake of the 2012 military coup that toppled their 20-year-old democracy, the RCAH honors the rich, living traditions of visual art that continue to invigorate and inspire Malians, providing lifelines to a better future. With attacks now staunched by a French-led counter-insurgency force, this summer will bring new democratic elections and the beginning of a process to reintegrate contending political parties and ethnic groups through a national Commission for Dialogue and Reconciliation.\n \n This exhibition is especially rich in examples of Malian textiles, including bogolan (mud-cloth) and mass-produced cotton prints. It provides an overview of the multiple arenas of Malian fabric production: traditional techniques, commercial and touristic production, and new approaches to fiber design created by contemporary Malian artists.\n \n Three-dimensional works, mostly created with wood, include masks, door locks (examples of traditional Dogon culture), and characteristic Malian CiWara antelope carvings.\n \n Malian photographer Tijani Sitou and American photographer Alexandra Huddleston provide contextual insight through their photos.\n \n The exhibition is curated by Chris Worland; her loans are supplemented by works lent by the MSU Museum and by RCAH faculty and students.\n\n Price: Free\n Sponsor: Residential College in the Arts and Humanities\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://rcah.msu.edu\n Contact name: Katie Wittenauer, RCAH Communications Manager\n Contact phone: (517) 884-6290\n Contact email: wittenau@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.rcah.msu.edu/news-events/events/mali-our-minds-exhibit\n LOCATION:Snyder-Phillips Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130913T161000Z UID:1376509876169@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

With attacks now staunched by a French-led counter-insurgency force, this summer will bring new democratic elections and the beginning of a process to reintegrate contending political parties and ethnic groups through a national Commission for Dialogue and Reconciliation.\n \n This exhibition is especially rich in examples of Malian textiles, including bogolan (mud-cloth) and mass-produced cotton prints. It provides an overview of the multiple arenas of Malian fabric production: traditional techniques, commercial and touristic production, and new approaches to fiber design created by contemporary Malian artists.\n \n Three-dimensional works, mostly created with wood, include masks, door locks (examples of traditional Dogon culture), and characteristic Malian CiWara antelope carvings.\n \n Malian photographer Tijani Sitou and American photographer Alexandra Huddleston provide contextual insight through their photos.\n \n The exhibition is curated by Chris Worland; her loans are supplemented by works lent by the MSU Museum and by RCAH faculty and students.\n\n Price: Free\n Sponsor: Residential College in the Arts and Humanities\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://rcah.msu.edu\n Contact name: Katie Wittenauer, RCAH Communications Manager\n Contact phone: (517) 884-6290\n Contact email: wittenau@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.rcah.msu.edu/news-events/events/mali-our-minds-exhibit\n LOCATION:Snyder-Phillips Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130917T190000Z UID:1378907216725@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20130917T190000Z DTEND:20130918T035900Z SUMMARY:"Constitution Day Celebration" DESCRIPTION: Constitution Day Celebration: The Constitutional and/or Statutory Limits of Presidential Power?

Art Gallery is open Mondays through Fridays from noon to 2 p.m. It is located in C200 Snyder-Phillips Hall on the Michigan State University campus.\n \n About Mali On Our Minds:\n \n At a time when Malians have been threatened by separatists and fundamentalist Islamic incursions in the wake of the 2012 military coup that toppled their 20-year-old democracy, the RCAH honors the rich, living traditions of visual art that continue to invigorate and inspire Malians, providing lifelines to a better future. With attacks now staunched by a French-led counter-insurgency force, this summer will bring new democratic elections and the beginning of a process to reintegrate contending political parties and ethnic groups through a national Commission for Dialogue and Reconciliation.\n \n This exhibition is especially rich in examples of Malian textiles, including bogolan (mud-cloth) and mass-produced cotton prints. It provides an overview of the multiple arenas of Malian fabric production: traditional techniques, commercial and touristic production, and new approaches to fiber design created by contemporary Malian artists.\n \n Three-dimensional works, mostly created with wood, include masks, door locks (examples of traditional Dogon culture), and characteristic Malian CiWara antelope carvings.\n \n Malian photographer Tijani Sitou and American photographer Alexandra Huddleston provide contextual insight through their photos.\n \n The exhibition is curated by Chris Worland; her loans are supplemented by works lent by the MSU Museum and by RCAH faculty and students.\n\n Price: Free\n Sponsor: Residential College in the Arts and Humanities\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://rcah.msu.edu\n Contact name: Katie Wittenauer, RCAH Communications Manager\n Contact phone: (517) 884-6290\n Contact email: wittenau@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.rcah.msu.edu/news-events/events/mali-our-minds-exhibit\n LOCATION:Snyder-Phillips Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130919T161500Z UID:1376419943510@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Public Programs DTSTART:20130919T161500Z DTEND:20130919T173000Z SUMMARY:Our Daily Work/ Our Daily Lives - Brown Bag Series DESCRIPTION: Today's presentation is titled, "Life in Large Format: 25 Years of Worker Portraits," presented by Gilles Perrin and Nicole Ewenczyk (held in conjunction with the two photographic exhibits opening in September at the MSU Museum, "Detroit Resurgent" and "An Extraordinary Document of Our World")."Our Daily Work / Our Daily Lives" is a joint project that focuses on the artistic traditions of workers and on workplaces as contexts for the expression of workers culture.

Now, in a dramatic thriller based on real events, THE FIFTH ESTATE reveals the quest to expose the deceptions and corruptions of power that turned an Internet upstart into the 21st century's most fiercely debated organization. The story begins as WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange (Benedict Cumberbatch) and his colleague Daniel Domscheit-Berg (Daniel Brühl) team up to become underground watchdogs of the privileged and powerful. On a shoestring, they create a platform that allows whistleblowers to anonymously leak covert data, shining a light on the dark recesses of government secrets and corporate crimes. Soon, they are breaking more hard news than the world's most legendary media organizations combined. But when Assange and Berg gain access to the biggest trove of confidential intelligence documents in U.S. history, they battle each other and a defining question of our time: what are the costs of keeping secrets in a free society-and what are the costs of exposing them?" (DREAMWORKS PICTURES). \n\n Price: FREE for undergraduate students living in MSU residence halls, $2 for all others\n Sponsor: University Activities Board (UAB) and the Residence Halls Assoc.\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.uabevents.com\n Contact name: University Activities Board\n Contact phone: 355-3354\n Contact email: uab@rhs.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://uabevents.com\n LOCATION:B Wing, Wells Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20131003T040000Z UID:1376417391559-0026@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

The program was established in 1992 and is coordinated by the Michigan Traditional Arts Program at the MSU Museum and the Labor Education Program in the College of Social Science's School of Human Resources and Labor Relations.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: MSU Museum\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu\n Contact name: John Beck\n Contact phone: (517) 432-3982\n Contact email: beckj@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu\n LOCATION:MSU Museum Auditorium END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20131024T230000Z UID:1374849174756@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Movie / Film DTSTART:20131024T230000Z DTEND:20131025T035900Z SUMMARY:Hava Nagila (The Movie) DESCRIPTION: Presented by Kenneth Waltzer, MSU James Madison College and the MSU Jewish Studies Program; and Joanna Bosse, MSU Residential College in the Arts and Humanities and the MSU College of Music\n \n Cosponsored by the MSU Jewish Studies Program\n \n "Through the unlikely prism of this song [Hava Nagila] the documentary manages to tell a complicated story of cultural adaptation while providing a fresh look at a good chunk of modern Jewish history, from poverty to plenty, from the shtetl in Ukraine to Israel to the suburbs of America..." -Rachel Saltz, New York Times, February 28, 2013\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lib.msu.edu\n Contact name: Holly Flynn\n Contact phone: 517-884-0901\n Contact email: flynnhol@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.lib.msu.edu/general/events/\n LOCATION:Main Library, W449 (4th Floor, West Wing) END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20131024T233000Z UID:1375060836500@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

What's a hackathon? It's like recess for techies: one day, 50 people, lots and lots of coding.\n \n But not just coding! Hackathons need web developers, interface designers, business minds, and more in order to be successful.\n \n We'll hack on anything, but it's better to come prepared. Participants are encouraged to submit project ideas, form teams and to back projects of personal interest on our http://www.hackathon.io/msu site. You might also consider checking in with our Facebook event page (https://www.facebook.com/events/676318972397069/) and help us spread the word. Our MSU Hackathon will have the theme of: "cross-departmental coding".\n \n Registration is free, and we'll provide breakfast, lunch, snacks and coffee to keep you coding all day long. We'll also have all the necessities: power, wireless, virtual servers, thumb drives, git, etc. All we need is you (and probably your laptop).\n \n Please RSVP at the registration link above and stay tuned for more information. You can also follow us on Twitter @MSUHackathon\n \n Finally, if you, your department or college would be interested in helping us sponsor this event, please let me know at collie@msu.edu.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lib.msu.edu\n Contact name: Holly Flynn\n Contact phone: 517-884-0901\n Contact email: flynnhol@msu.edu\n LOCATION:Main Library, W449 (4th Floor, West Wing) END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20131026T170000Z UID:1382530159039@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Public Programs DTSTART:20131026T170000Z DTEND:20131026T190000Z SUMMARY:Dig the Past: A Hands-on Intro to Archaeology DESCRIPTION: Learn what archaeologists do by doing it!

The first event in the Series is slated for Thursday, November 7, 2013, at the Human Ecology Building on the campus of MSU in East Lansing. \n \n The inaugural speaker for the Series is Ron Boji, President of The Boji Group. He will present on "Real Estate Development and Construction: Journey from Boji Tower to Present." Boji has become a highly successful developer, construction manager and property manager, including owner of The Boji Tower (next to the State Capitol). He is also a 1993 Construction Management graduate from MSU.\n \n The SPDC Industry Seminar Series consists of lectures and presentations by invited speakers who are industry leaders in the Built Environment profession. These seminars will take place twice a semester and will be followed by a reception and informal get together with SPDC students and attendees. Series topics include the latest developments and innovations in the field, along with success stories from the speakers. Many of the speakers will be alumni of the SPDC constituent programs: Construction Management, Interior Design, Landscape Architecture and Urban & Regional Planning. Joseph Maguire, President and CEO of Wolverine Development Corporation, and Society of Environmentally Responsible facilities (SERF), is serving as the facilitator of the Series.\n \n According to Dr. Matt Syal, Professor in the SPDC Construction Management Program and Series Coordinator, "This series will be a tremendous asset for the SPDC students and faculty, because it will expose them to the latest developments in Built Environment through the activities of industry leaders. This inaugural lecture is especially exciting, because the speaker is a Construction Management alumnus."\n \n This event is free and open to the public. The lecture will take place from 5pm-5:45pm in Room 300 in the MSU Human Ecology Building.

Intrigued by the complex context of Sino-US relations, together the characters explore elements of meaningful dialogue and cultural identity. Their shared travel adventures, emotion of culture shock, honest confrontations and discoveries about each other become doorways to deepen their understanding of the "other" and themselves. Although the film is set in Hong Kong and China, the "lessons learned" about intercultural understanding and the communication skills needed for conflict mediation and collaborative problem solving are applicable globally.

The Shape of a Girl is a dynamic one-woman play that examines the frightening realities of teenage relationships, aggression and a young woman's battle with inaction. Originally inspired by a 1997 murder of a Canadian high school student, playwright Joan MacLeod's beautiful and tightly written play looks at the way little incidents of childhood cruelty can escalate, and the role an individual can have in stopping it.\n\n Price: $12\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://whartoncenter.com\n Contact name: Wharton Center Auto-Owners Insurance Ticketing Office\n Contact phone: (517) 432-2000\n Contact email: whartoncenter@gmail.com\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.whartoncenter.com/events/detail/the-shape-of-a-girl\n LOCATION:Wharton Center for Performing Arts END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20131116T010000Z UID:1383671802992@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20131116T010000Z DTEND:20131116T044500Z SUMMARY:Euchre Tournament DESCRIPTION: Show off your Midwest card game skills with UAB's Euchre Tournament!

His work explores contemporary mass culture from a variety of photographic and conceptual perspectives, connecting the viewer viscerally to the enormity and power of humanity's collective unconscious. Jordan's images edge-walk the lines between art and activism, beauty and horror, abstraction and representation, the near and the far, the visible and the invisible. His work asks us to look both inward and outward at the traumatized landscapes of our collective choices.\n Currently, Chris is finishing up his first documentary film, Midway, which takes place on Midway Atoll, where tens of thousands of seabirds die each year from ingesting plastic from the polluted Pacific Ocean. Midway will take viewers on a lyrical guided tour into the depths of the astonishingly beautiful and tragic story of the albatross, inspiring us to connect on a deeper level with the miracle of our world and our own lives.\n Learn more about Chris Jordan's artwork at http://www.chrisjordan.com/ or his documentary film, Midway.\n \n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Becky Young\n Contact phone: 517-432-3769\n Contact email: youngre8@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://geo.msu.edu/events/inspirational-evening-with-artist-chris-jordan/\n LOCATION:Wharton Center Pasant Theatre END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20131121T000000Z UID:1382037829750@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20131121T000000Z DTEND:20131121T045900Z SUMMARY:Why Public Health Needs Religious Studies DESCRIPTION: Dr. Ann Mongoven discusses the importance of Religious Studies in the public health world.

The elder Haas remains the only classical music host to be\n inducted into the Radio Hall of Fame. Karl was one of two radio personalities to\n receive two Peabody awards, the other being Edward R. Murrow.\n \n Jeff's music is known nationally, and also came to the attention of legendary jazz pianist Dave Brubeck who said, "In combining these great musical traditions, [Haas] has created a soulful music that transcends ethnic barriers."\n \n The Detroit Free Press referred to Jeff Haas' recording, The Bridge Lives, as "extending backward to his familial and religious roots and extended forward to his burgeoning career as a jazz musician. Haas' blend of jazz, classical and Jewish music offers a path lit with originality." Iconoclast jazz master Ahmad Jamal praised Jeff for "the depth of his compositional effort and the inspired use of the universal language of music."\n\n Price: $27\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://whartoncenter.com\n Contact name: Wharton Center Auto-Owners Insurance Ticketing Office\n Contact phone: (517) 432-2000\n Contact email: whartoncenter@gmail.com\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.whartoncenter.com/events/detail/jeff-haas\n LOCATION:Wharton Center for Performing Arts END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20131208T200000Z UID:1375289447937@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

Distinctive and soulful, it is one of the most yearningly emotive instruments of our times. To this add formidable songwriting and keyboard skills, and you have an artist who has been a singular musical presence for four decades. From '70s-era Doobie Brothers classics such as "What A Fool Believes" and solo hits like "I Keep Forgettin'" through two highly-acclaimed Motowncovers albums and recent genre-busting guest spots with alternative buzz bands Grizzly Bear and Holy Ghost, the five-time Grammy-winning McDonald is that rare thing in contemporary pop - an artist whose work is both timeless and ever-evolving.\n \n With a career that encompasses five Grammys, numerous chart successes, personal and professional accolades, as well as collaborations with some of the world's most prominent artists, Michael McDonald remains an enduring force in popular music. \n\n Price: Tickets starting from $35\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://whartoncenter.com\n Contact name: Wharton Center Auto-Owners Insurance Ticketing Office\n Contact phone: (517) 432-2000\n Contact email: whartoncenter@gmail.com\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.whartoncenter.com/events/detail/michael-mcdonald\n LOCATION:Wharton Center for Performing Arts END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20131222T050000Z UID:1382628908164-0064@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

Nine African-American students were prevented from entering the building by an angry mob of whites outside the school. After 50 years, it is a stark reminder of the steps that still need to be made toward equality. The HBO Documentary Film, Little Rock Central High: 50 Years Later, is an eye-opening look at racial equality, education, and class at the landmark high school today, where educational equality remains elusive. Filmmakers Brent and Craig Renaud began filming as the school and the nation prepared for the 50th Anniversary of the famous Integration Crisis 1957. The film follows present day Central High students and faculty both in and out of school, along with community leaders and one of the original "Little Rock Nine," who reflects on how much -- and how little -- has changed since she courageously crossed the school's steps nearly half a century ago.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lib.msu.edu\n Contact name: Holly Flynn\n Contact phone: 517-884-0901\n Contact email: flynnhol@msu.edu\n LOCATION:Main Library, North Conference Room END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20140114T050000Z UID:1382628908164-0087@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

The story of the renowned advocate for freedom, as well as the anti-apartheid movement itself is told through the life and work of South Africa's beloved "Kathy." Kathy's exemplary leadership continues to inspire South Africans and others around the world to work for freedom, non-racialism, and democracy.\n Ahmed Mohammed Kathrada (or "Kathy," as he is popularly known) was born in 1929 to Indian immigrants in a rural town in South Africa. Kathy was only 12 when he began a life of tireless activism for non-racialism and democracy. \n \n He was arrested several times and, along with eight friends and fellow activists including Nelson Mandela and Walter Sisulu, he was sentenced at the famous Rivonia Treason Trial to life imprisonment. He spent 26 years in prison, eighteen of which were on Robben Island.\n \n In 1989 Kathy was released from prison and, in 1994, in the new democratic South African government, he was elected to the South African Parliament and served as President Mandela's Parliamentary Counselor. \n \n This exhibition is produced in partnership with Project 60/50 at Michigan State University, a year-long community conversation about civil rights and human rights.

He was later named Consultant in Poetry to the Library of Congress (1970) -- a position now known as Poet Laureate -- and Poet Laureate of Oregon (1975). He won the Western States Book Award for lifetime achievement in poetry in 1992. Stafford taught at Lewis & Clark College in Oregon for over 20 years, and his poetry has been likened to that of Robert Frost: deceptively simple at first but offering a deep and complex vision upon further contemplation.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://poetry.rcah.msu.edu/\n Contact phone: 5178841932\n Contact email: cpoetry@msu.edu\n LOCATION:Snyder C202 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20140121T000000Z UID:1389930514157@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Public Programs DTSTART:20140121T000000Z DTEND:20140121T020000Z SUMMARY:Martin Luther King Jr, Trayvon Martin, and MSU DESCRIPTION: The College of Arts and Letters will conduct a panel discussion in honor of Martin Luther King, Jr. Day on Monday, January 20th from 7:00-9:00 PM.

The daughter of teachers, her family was forced to flee the Nazi regime when Mueller was 15. They immigrated to the US and settled in the Mid-west. Mueller attended the University of Evansville, where her father was a professor, and did her graduate study at Indiana University. Her collections of poetry include "The Private Life," which was the 1975 Lamont Poetry Selection; "Second Language" (1986); "The Need to Hold Still" (1980), which received the National Book Award; "Learning to Play by Ear" (1990); and "Alive Together: New & Selected Poems" (1996), which won the Pulitzer Prize. Her other awards and honors include the Carl Sandburg Award, the Helen Bullis Award, the Ruth Lilly Prize, and a National Endowment for the Arts fellowship. She has also published translations, most recently "Circe's Mountain" by Marie Luise Kaschnitz (1990).\n \n Participants in this workshop should have some familiarity with the poems from Mueller's "Alive Together: New & Selected Poems." Grand Rapids-based poet Linda Nemec Foster will join us to speak about her professional relationship with Mueller and lead discussion along with Professor Anita Skeen about Mueller's poems. There will be another workshop on Monday, January 28, which will focus on writing poems based on tonight's discussion.

The story of the renowned advocate for freedom, as well as the anti-apartheid movement itself is told through the life and work of South Africa's beloved "Kathy." Kathy's exemplary leadership continues to inspire South Africans and others around the world to work for freedom, non-racialism, and democracy.\n Ahmed Mohammed Kathrada (or "Kathy," as he is popularly known) was born in 1929 to Indian immigrants in a rural town in South Africa. Kathy was only 12 when he began a life of tireless activism for non-racialism and democracy. \n \n He was arrested several times and, along with eight friends and fellow activists including Nelson Mandela and Walter Sisulu, he was sentenced at the famous Rivonia Treason Trial to life imprisonment. He spent 26 years in prison, eighteen of which were on Robben Island.\n \n In 1989 Kathy was released from prison and, in 1994, in the new democratic South African government, he was elected to the South African Parliament and served as President Mandela's Parliamentary Counselor. \n \n This exhibition is produced in partnership with Project 60/50 at Michigan State University, a year-long community conversation about civil rights and human rights.

The story of the renowned advocate for freedom, as well as the anti-apartheid movement itself is told through the life and work of South Africa's beloved "Kathy." Kathy's exemplary leadership continues to inspire South Africans and others around the world to work for freedom, non-racialism, and democracy.\n Ahmed Mohammed Kathrada (or "Kathy," as he is popularly known) was born in 1929 to Indian immigrants in a rural town in South Africa. Kathy was only 12 when he began a life of tireless activism for non-racialism and democracy. \n \n He was arrested several times and, along with eight friends and fellow activists including Nelson Mandela and Walter Sisulu, he was sentenced at the famous Rivonia Treason Trial to life imprisonment. He spent 26 years in prison, eighteen of which were on Robben Island.\n \n In 1989 Kathy was released from prison and, in 1994, in the new democratic South African government, he was elected to the South African Parliament and served as President Mandela's Parliamentary Counselor. \n \n This exhibition is produced in partnership with Project 60/50 at Michigan State University, a year-long community conversation about civil rights and human rights.

What are the sources of its ever-growing audience? What makes it unique and what makes it problematic? Why do so many readers prefer it to contemporary fiction-what are they looking for? What do authors of memoirs owe their audience, and what do they owe to their subjects?

He was later named Consultant in Poetry to the Library of Congress (1970) -- a position now known as Poet Laureate -- and Poet Laureate of Oregon (1975). He won the Western States Book Award for lifetime achievement in poetry in 1992. Stafford taught at Lewis & Clark College in Oregon for over 20 years, and his poetry has been likened to that of Robert Frost: deceptively simple at first but offering a deep and complex vision upon further contemplation.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://poetry.rcah.msu.edu/\n Contact phone: 5178841932\n Contact email: cpoetry@msu.edu\n LOCATION:Snyder C202 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20140128T003000Z UID:1366383616556@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

The story of the renowned advocate for freedom, as well as the anti-apartheid movement itself is told through the life and work of South Africa's beloved "Kathy." Kathy's exemplary leadership continues to inspire South Africans and others around the world to work for freedom, non-racialism, and democracy.\n Ahmed Mohammed Kathrada (or "Kathy," as he is popularly known) was born in 1929 to Indian immigrants in a rural town in South Africa. Kathy was only 12 when he began a life of tireless activism for non-racialism and democracy. \n \n He was arrested several times and, along with eight friends and fellow activists including Nelson Mandela and Walter Sisulu, he was sentenced at the famous Rivonia Treason Trial to life imprisonment. He spent 26 years in prison, eighteen of which were on Robben Island.\n \n In 1989 Kathy was released from prison and, in 1994, in the new democratic South African government, he was elected to the South African Parliament and served as President Mandela's Parliamentary Counselor. \n \n This exhibition is produced in partnership with Project 60/50 at Michigan State University, a year-long community conversation about civil rights and human rights.

The story of the renowned advocate for freedom, as well as the anti-apartheid movement itself is told through the life and work of South Africa's beloved "Kathy." Kathy's exemplary leadership continues to inspire South Africans and others around the world to work for freedom, non-racialism, and democracy.\n Ahmed Mohammed Kathrada (or "Kathy," as he is popularly known) was born in 1929 to Indian immigrants in a rural town in South Africa. Kathy was only 12 when he began a life of tireless activism for non-racialism and democracy. \n \n He was arrested several times and, along with eight friends and fellow activists including Nelson Mandela and Walter Sisulu, he was sentenced at the famous Rivonia Treason Trial to life imprisonment. He spent 26 years in prison, eighteen of which were on Robben Island.\n \n In 1989 Kathy was released from prison and, in 1994, in the new democratic South African government, he was elected to the South African Parliament and served as President Mandela's Parliamentary Counselor. \n \n This exhibition is produced in partnership with Project 60/50 at Michigan State University, a year-long community conversation about civil rights and human rights.

Bay of Angels, published October 15, 2013 by Anhinga Press, is a collection of poems featuring three different aspects of Wakoski's poetry and her use of personal mythology. In the first section, all the poems stem from some film, which has resonance in her own world, such as the existential romance and gambling, which are the subject of the title poem from a French film, Bay of Angels. The second section features visions of growing up in California's mythic territory: Hollywood, Los Angeles, and Orange County. The third section continues her experimentation with the hybrid form, embedding poems in epistolary address, including poems and exchanges from her email correspondence with a young poet, called The Pizza Boy or The Shadow Boy.\n \n About Diane: Diane Wakoski, who was born in Southern California and educated at UC, Berkeley, made her home and began her poetry career in New York City from 1960-1973. In 1989 her selected poems, Emerald Ice (Black Sparrow Press) won the William Carlos Williams prize from the Poetry Society of America. The most recent of her more than 20 collections of poetry are The Diamond Dog (Anhinga Press, 2010) and a new collection, Bay of Angels (Anhinga Press, 2013). Since 1975, she has lived in East Lansing, Michigan where she was Poet In Residence and University Distinguished Professor at Michigan State University until she retired in the spring of 2012. She has been married thirty years to photographer, Robert Turney.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://poetry.rcah.msu.edu/\n Contact phone: 5178841932\n Contact email: cpoetry@msu.edu\n LOCATION:RCAH Theater END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20140206T003000Z UID:1389931693456@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Movie / Film DTSTART:20140206T003000Z DTEND:20140206T045900Z SUMMARY:Steven Spielberg's "Lincoln" DESCRIPTION: Wednesday, February 5, at 7:30 pm in B122 Wells Hall, the College of Arts & Letters will present a FREE screening of Steven Spielberg's "Lincoln" starring Daniel Day-Lewis in the title role.

Kathy's exemplary leadership continues to inspire South Africans and others around the world to work for freedom, non-racialism, and democracy.\n Ahmed Mohammed Kathrada (or "Kathy," as he is popularly known) was born in 1929 to Indian immigrants in a rural town in South Africa. Kathy was only 12 when he began a life of tireless activism for non-racialism and democracy. \n \n He was arrested several times and, along with eight friends and fellow activists including Nelson Mandela and Walter Sisulu, he was sentenced at the famous Rivonia Treason Trial to life imprisonment. He spent 26 years in prison, eighteen of which were on Robben Island.\n \n In 1989 Kathy was released from prison and, in 1994, in the new democratic South African government, he was elected to the South African Parliament and served as President Mandela's Parliamentary Counselor. \n \n This exhibition is produced in partnership with Project 60/50 at Michigan State University, a year-long community conversation about civil rights and human rights.

The story of the renowned advocate for freedom, as well as the anti-apartheid movement itself is told through the life and work of South Africa's beloved "Kathy." Kathy's exemplary leadership continues to inspire South Africans and others around the world to work for freedom, non-racialism, and democracy.\n Ahmed Mohammed Kathrada (or "Kathy," as he is popularly known) was born in 1929 to Indian immigrants in a rural town in South Africa. Kathy was only 12 when he began a life of tireless activism for non-racialism and democracy. \n \n He was arrested several times and, along with eight friends and fellow activists including Nelson Mandela and Walter Sisulu, he was sentenced at the famous Rivonia Treason Trial to life imprisonment. He spent 26 years in prison, eighteen of which were on Robben Island.\n \n In 1989 Kathy was released from prison and, in 1994, in the new democratic South African government, he was elected to the South African Parliament and served as President Mandela's Parliamentary Counselor. \n \n This exhibition is produced in partnership with Project 60/50 at Michigan State University, a year-long community conversation about civil rights and human rights.

He spent 26 years in prison, eighteen of which were on Robben Island.\n \n In 1989 Kathy was released from prison and, in 1994, in the new democratic South African government, he was elected to the South African Parliament and served as President Mandela's Parliamentary Counselor. \n \n This exhibition is produced in partnership with Project 60/50 at Michigan State University, a year-long community conversation about civil rights and human rights.

The play dramatizes the tortuous route Prince Hamlet takes to exact revenge for his father's murder. It vividly portrays overwhelming grief and rage while exploring themes of danger, political intrigue, and moral corruption. Hamlet is among the most powerful and influential tragedies in English literature, and many believe it is the best of Shakespeare's works - it has even been called "the perfect play." Ian Belknap, artistic director of The Acting Company, brings this masterpiece to life after directing last year's tour de force, Of Mice and Men.\n \n Celebrating nearly four decades of touring and teaching, multi-award-winning The Acting Company is America's premier touring repertory theater, founded in 1972 by John Houseman, with world-renowned alumni including Kevin Kline, Patti LuPone, Jesse L. Martin, Rainn Wilson and more.\n\n Price: $40\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Auto-Owners Insurance Ticket Office\n Contact phone: (517) 432-2000\n Contact email: whartoncenter@gmail.com\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.whartoncenter.com\n LOCATION:Wharton Center for Performing Arts END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20140216T001000Z UID:1392405969749-0002@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20140216T001000Z DTEND:20140216T045900Z SUMMARY:Campus Center Cinemas - Dallas Buyers Club DESCRIPTION: Note: All Students and guests must show valid picture ID for movie entry.

Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead is structured as the inverse of Hamlet: the title characters are the leads, and Hamlet himself has only a small part. The duo appears in this comedy primarily when they are off-stage in Shakespeare's play. The play focuses on free will vs. determinism, the search for value, and the impassivity of certainty framed by the comedy, cleverness, and ambiguities inherent in language. This is signature Stoppard, author of The Real Thing and The Coast of Utopia as well as the film Shakespeare in Love. Tony Award® winner John Rando directs.\n\n Price: $40.

Kathy was only 12 when he began a life of tireless activism for non-racialism and democracy. \n \n He was arrested several times and, along with eight friends and fellow activists including Nelson Mandela and Walter Sisulu, he was sentenced at the famous Rivonia Treason Trial to life imprisonment. He spent 26 years in prison, eighteen of which were on Robben Island.\n \n In 1989 Kathy was released from prison and, in 1994, in the new democratic South African government, he was elected to the South African Parliament and served as President Mandela's Parliamentary Counselor. \n \n This exhibition is produced in partnership with Project 60/50 at Michigan State University, a year-long community conversation about civil rights and human rights.

In fact, its creators, printmaker Laura B. DeLind and poet Anita Skeen, never set out to produce a book at all when they began exchanging prints and poems, but something happened along the way. As they began to appreciate at a deeper level the skill involved in each other's work, they began to find meaning in small things-a pattern, a memory, a carefully chosen word. In his essay "Plugging into Essential Sources," Eric Booth introduces the concept of "response-ability." He describes it as the capacity to connect with the artful work of another. It represents both our need and our promise to respond in an open, eager, and multi-sensual way to a world of possibility. Without this capacity we are crippled in our ability to imagine and to grow. This book is all about response-ability as experienced by the two artists and the visitors to an exhibit of their work at the Michigan State University Museum. This concept and activity animates the twenty-two bird-like spirits found herein, reminding us that there are other such spirits hovering expectantly just beyond the pages, simply waiting for the imagining.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://poetry.rcah.msu.edu/\n Contact phone: 5178841932\n Contact email: cpoetry@msu.edu\n LOCATION:RCAH LookOut!

The story of the renowned advocate for freedom, as well as the anti-apartheid movement itself is told through the life and work of South Africa's beloved "Kathy." Kathy's exemplary leadership continues to inspire South Africans and others around the world to work for freedom, non-racialism, and democracy.\n Ahmed Mohammed Kathrada (or "Kathy," as he is popularly known) was born in 1929 to Indian immigrants in a rural town in South Africa. Kathy was only 12 when he began a life of tireless activism for non-racialism and democracy. \n \n He was arrested several times and, along with eight friends and fellow activists including Nelson Mandela and Walter Sisulu, he was sentenced at the famous Rivonia Treason Trial to life imprisonment. He spent 26 years in prison, eighteen of which were on Robben Island.\n \n In 1989 Kathy was released from prison and, in 1994, in the new democratic South African government, he was elected to the South African Parliament and served as President Mandela's Parliamentary Counselor. \n \n This exhibition is produced in partnership with Project 60/50 at Michigan State University, a year-long community conversation about civil rights and human rights.

The story of the renowned advocate for freedom, as well as the anti-apartheid movement itself is told through the life and work of South Africa's beloved "Kathy." Kathy's exemplary leadership continues to inspire South Africans and others around the world to work for freedom, non-racialism, and democracy.\n Ahmed Mohammed Kathrada (or "Kathy," as he is popularly known) was born in 1929 to Indian immigrants in a rural town in South Africa. Kathy was only 12 when he began a life of tireless activism for non-racialism and democracy. \n \n He was arrested several times and, along with eight friends and fellow activists including Nelson Mandela and Walter Sisulu, he was sentenced at the famous Rivonia Treason Trial to life imprisonment. He spent 26 years in prison, eighteen of which were on Robben Island.\n \n In 1989 Kathy was released from prison and, in 1994, in the new democratic South African government, he was elected to the South African Parliament and served as President Mandela's Parliamentary Counselor. \n \n This exhibition is produced in partnership with Project 60/50 at Michigan State University, a year-long community conversation about civil rights and human rights.

The nation's pioneer land-grant college was founded more than 150 years ago, guided by a philosophy to serve all the people of the state, an idea that still prevails in 2014.\n \n Agriculture and Natural Resources Week (ANR Week) continues to be one of the largest events of its kind in the nation. Foundations for the week were laid by the Farmers' Institute more than a century ago. In 1898, Michigan Agricultural College hosted the first statewide Farmers' Institute "Round-Up." Agriculture Hall was completed in 1909, and a fourth floor auditorium provided the meeting place. Five years later, the round-up combined with farm association meetings to become the first Farmers' Week.\n \n The topics of interest over 90 years has changed with the times. In the 1960s it was the space age, in the '70s it was science and cybernetics, and the '80s bought forth issues related to world hunger. In 1982, Farmers' Week became Farmers' Week and Natural Resources Days followed by another name change in 1985 to Agriculture and Natural Resources Week. The event now hosts more than 50 programs and annual association meetings.\n \n ANR Week 2014 provides a wide variety of topics in areas such as agriculture, horticulture, and natural resources, i.e. Quiet Water Symposium, Michigan Wildflower Conference, Growing of Michigan's Organic Future, MSRBA Rabbit Show, and the 86th state convention of the Michigan FFA.\n\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Jennifer Labun\n Contact phone: 517-884-7351\n Contact email: sibsonje@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://http://anrweek.canr.msu.edu/\n END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20140308T050000Z UID:1386690588327-0048@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

He spent 26 years in prison, eighteen of which were on Robben Island.\n \n In 1989 Kathy was released from prison and, in 1994, in the new democratic South African government, he was elected to the South African Parliament and served as President Mandela's Parliamentary Counselor. \n \n This exhibition is produced in partnership with Project 60/50 at Michigan State University, a year-long community conversation about civil rights and human rights.

Phil in International Relations. After finishing her graduate degree she worked as Congressman Jack Kemp's chief legislative assistant, developing his enterprise zone legislation, and then as the chief Pentagon speechwriter, writing speeches and policy papers for Secretary Caspar Weinberger and President Ronald Reagan. When her husband, Michael (JMCD-1976) joined the faculty of the University of Chicago Law School she became Public Issues Director at FMC Corporation, a Fortune 200 manufacturing company and major defense contractor. A visiting stint at the University of Utah turned into a 14 year stay, during which Ms. McConnell first home-school their three children, and then moved into a high school teaching career with a Catholic high school in Salt Lake City. When still another academic move (this time to Stanford University) took the family to Palo Alto, she continued working as a curriculum consultant and teacher, and began putting concurrent enrollment and AP courses online for her school. A self-described "Paleo" teacher, Mary McConnell has become intrigued by the potential of online education, but also concerned that its proponents may be promising more than online teaching can deliver.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Kim Allan\n Contact phone: 353-3381\n Contact email: ALLANK@MSU.EDU\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://jmc.msu.edu\n LOCATION:Case Hall Library, 3rd floor South END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20140314T171500Z UID:1385483490489@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Public Programs DTSTART:20140314T171500Z DTEND:20140314T183000Z SUMMARY:Our Daily Work/ Our Daily Lives Brown Bag Series DESCRIPTION: This week's presentation title, "'The Moralistic God and the Factory System': Uncovering Religion in a 1950s Automobile Factory," is presented by Matthew Pehl, History Department, Augustana College (co-sponsored by Motorcities/The Automobile National Heritage Area).

The story of the renowned advocate for freedom, as well as the anti-apartheid movement itself is told through the life and work of South Africa's beloved "Kathy." Kathy's exemplary leadership continues to inspire South Africans and others around the world to work for freedom, non-racialism, and democracy.\n Ahmed Mohammed Kathrada (or "Kathy," as he is popularly known) was born in 1929 to Indian immigrants in a rural town in South Africa. Kathy was only 12 when he began a life of tireless activism for non-racialism and democracy. \n \n He was arrested several times and, along with eight friends and fellow activists including Nelson Mandela and Walter Sisulu, he was sentenced at the famous Rivonia Treason Trial to life imprisonment. He spent 26 years in prison, eighteen of which were on Robben Island.\n \n In 1989 Kathy was released from prison and, in 1994, in the new democratic South African government, he was elected to the South African Parliament and served as President Mandela's Parliamentary Counselor. \n \n This exhibition is produced in partnership with Project 60/50 at Michigan State University, a year-long community conversation about civil rights and human rights.

By interweaving archival footage, specially filmed material, interviews and a soundtrack by Miles Davis, The Stuart Hall Project reveals how Hall's personal trajectory as a Jamaican immigrant living in the United Kingdom, coincided with the demise of the British Empire and the birth of a multicultural Britain. Far from being merely a portrait of a post-war immigrant whose radical ideas inspired artists, writers and political thinkers alike, this film is a poignant meditation on the struggles of race, class, gender and cultural identity that marked the latter part of the 20th century. The screening is followed by an open discussion focusing on Hall's legacy on both sides of the Atlantic. Presented as part of the Black Film as Social Activism series, organized by the Broad MSU and the MSU Film Studies Department.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Leyna Lightman\n Contact email: lightman@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.lansing.org/includes/events/Broad-MSU-Film-Screening-and-Discussion-The-Stuart-Hall-Proje\n LOCATION:Education Wing at The Broad Art Museum END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20140316T020000Z UID:1392406325821-0002@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20140316T020000Z DTEND:20140316T045900Z SUMMARY:Campus Center Cinemas - Frozen DESCRIPTION: Note: All Students and guests must show valid picture ID for movie entry.

The story of the renowned advocate for freedom, as well as the anti-apartheid movement itself is told through the life and work of South Africa's beloved "Kathy." Kathy's exemplary leadership continues to inspire South Africans and others around the world to work for freedom, non-racialism, and democracy.\n Ahmed Mohammed Kathrada (or "Kathy," as he is popularly known) was born in 1929 to Indian immigrants in a rural town in South Africa. Kathy was only 12 when he began a life of tireless activism for non-racialism and democracy. \n \n He was arrested several times and, along with eight friends and fellow activists including Nelson Mandela and Walter Sisulu, he was sentenced at the famous Rivonia Treason Trial to life imprisonment. He spent 26 years in prison, eighteen of which were on Robben Island.\n \n In 1989 Kathy was released from prison and, in 1994, in the new democratic South African government, he was elected to the South African Parliament and served as President Mandela's Parliamentary Counselor. \n \n This exhibition is produced in partnership with Project 60/50 at Michigan State University, a year-long community conversation about civil rights and human rights.

TAO has critics waxing lyrical about their extraordinary precision, energy, and stamina. The performers live and train in the mountains of Japan, reaching the highest level of virtuosity after years of intense study. TAO combines the traditional art of Japanese drumming with spectacular modern effects and brings nontraditional flair to the group by drawing on members' diverse backgrounds: one as a rock musician, another a gymnast, and yet another as a composer.

The story of the renowned advocate for freedom, as well as the anti-apartheid movement itself is told through the life and work of South Africa's beloved "Kathy." Kathy's exemplary leadership continues to inspire South Africans and others around the world to work for freedom, non-racialism, and democracy.\n Ahmed Mohammed Kathrada (or "Kathy," as he is popularly known) was born in 1929 to Indian immigrants in a rural town in South Africa. Kathy was only 12 when he began a life of tireless activism for non-racialism and democracy. \n \n He was arrested several times and, along with eight friends and fellow activists including Nelson Mandela and Walter Sisulu, he was sentenced at the famous Rivonia Treason Trial to life imprisonment. He spent 26 years in prison, eighteen of which were on Robben Island.\n \n In 1989 Kathy was released from prison and, in 1994, in the new democratic South African government, he was elected to the South African Parliament and served as President Mandela's Parliamentary Counselor. \n \n This exhibition is produced in partnership with Project 60/50 at Michigan State University, a year-long community conversation about civil rights and human rights.

He will speak about layout, communication, and people`s perceptions of typeface and graphic design. Workshop participants will review examples of posters - both good and not-so-good - and consider common pitfalls.

When a King sends his three sons to find their brides, two return with fair ladies. The last returns with... A FROG?! The Frog Bride is a hip adaptation of the classic Russian tale told by consummate storyteller David Gonzalez. Musicians weave one of Prokofiev's classics with an original jazz-funk score, as David performs every role against a backdrop of video projections and images by Wassily Kandinsky. Filled with comic sparkle, this is a "ribbiting" coming-of-age story.

A world called Varekai. From the sky falls a solitary young man, and the story of Varekai begins. Parachuted into the shadows of a magical forest, a kaleidoscopic world populated by fantastical creatures, this young man sets off on an adventure both absurd and extraordinary. On this day at the edge of time, in this place of all possibilities, begins an inspired incantation to life rediscovered. The word Varekai means "wherever" in the Romany language of the gypsies the universal wanderers. This production pays tribute to the nomadic soul, to the spirit and art of the circus tradition, and to the infinite passion of those whose quest takes them along the path that leads to Varekai.\n \n SHOWTIMES\n \n Wednesday, April 2 7:30 p.m. \n Thursday, April 3 7:30 p.m. \n Friday, April 4 7:30 p.m.\n Saturday, April 5 4:00 p.m. \n Saturday, April 5 7:30 p.m.\n Sunday, April 6 1:30 p.m. \n Sunday, April 6 5:00 p.m. \n \n\n Price: Tickets from $38\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://whartoncenter.com\n Contact name: Wharton Center Auto-Owners Insurance Ticket Office\n Contact phone: (517) 432-2000\n Contact email: whartoncenter@gmail.com\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://breslincenter.com/events/press/cirque_du_soleil.html\n LOCATION:Breslin Center END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20140403T010000Z UID:1389289927719-0013@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20140403T010000Z DTEND:20140403T044500Z SUMMARY:Cosmic Bowling DESCRIPTION: Spartan Lanes, MSU Union\n 8 p.m. - midnight\n Bring your friends, grab some bowling shoes and have a great time.

A world called Varekai. From the sky falls a solitary young man, and the story of Varekai begins. Parachuted into the shadows of a magical forest, a kaleidoscopic world populated by fantastical creatures, this young man sets off on an adventure both absurd and extraordinary. On this day at the edge of time, in this place of all possibilities, begins an inspired incantation to life rediscovered. The word Varekai means "wherever" in the Romany language of the gypsies the universal wanderers. This production pays tribute to the nomadic soul, to the spirit and art of the circus tradition, and to the infinite passion of those whose quest takes them along the path that leads to Varekai.\n \n SHOWTIMES\n \n Wednesday, April 2 7:30 p.m. \n Thursday, April 3 7:30 p.m. \n Friday, April 4 7:30 p.m.\n Saturday, April 5 4:00 p.m. \n Saturday, April 5 7:30 p.m.\n Sunday, April 6 1:30 p.m. \n Sunday, April 6 5:00 p.m. \n \n\n Price: Tickets from $38\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://whartoncenter.com\n Contact name: Wharton Center Auto-Owners Insurance Ticket Office\n Contact phone: (517) 432-2000\n Contact email: whartoncenter@gmail.com\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://breslincenter.com/events/press/cirque_du_soleil.html\n LOCATION:Breslin Center END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20140404T010000Z UID:1395337896509@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Academic DTSTART:20140404T010000Z DTEND:20140404T030000Z SUMMARY:DIGITAL MEDIA, NEW CINEMAS, AND THE GLOBAL SOUTH DESCRIPTION: DIGITAL MEDIA, NEW CINEMAS, AND THE GLOBAL SOUTH\n \n Exploring the creative and tactical integration of digital media and new technologies in the global south\n \n \n FREE TO THE PUBLIC\n \n Digital media has changed the everyday lives of millions of people worldwide, however the focus on these recent technological developments tends to emphasize the lives of those in first-world nations.\n \n How is it that digital media, mobile technologies, and new cinematic forms of representation have changed the production and experience of art, economies, and culture in the global south?\n Focusing on contemporary developments in digital media, and especially film and the arts, this symposium will explore the creative and tactical integration of digital media and new technologies through diverse topics such as:\n New African cinema, Media creation and distribution in Southeast Asia and South America, and Films that engage a minoritarian viewpoint regardless of geopolitical origins.\n A three-day event, the symposium begins formally with a film screening on the Michigan State University campus at 8:00 pm, Thursday, presented by the filmmaker Wanuri Kahiu (Kenya).

The story of the renowned advocate for freedom, as well as the anti-apartheid movement itself is told through the life and work of South Africa's beloved "Kathy." Kathy's exemplary leadership continues to inspire South Africans and others around the world to work for freedom, non-racialism, and democracy.\n Ahmed Mohammed Kathrada (or "Kathy," as he is popularly known) was born in 1929 to Indian immigrants in a rural town in South Africa. Kathy was only 12 when he began a life of tireless activism for non-racialism and democracy. \n \n He was arrested several times and, along with eight friends and fellow activists including Nelson Mandela and Walter Sisulu, he was sentenced at the famous Rivonia Treason Trial to life imprisonment. He spent 26 years in prison, eighteen of which were on Robben Island.\n \n In 1989 Kathy was released from prison and, in 1994, in the new democratic South African government, he was elected to the South African Parliament and served as President Mandela's Parliamentary Counselor. \n \n This exhibition is produced in partnership with Project 60/50 at Michigan State University, a year-long community conversation about civil rights and human rights.

In the summer of 1877, the Great Labour Uprising erupts in the United States, one of the most intense and bloody confrontations between capital and labour in North American history. In June 1878, thousands of desperate men living on the razor's edge of public works force a general strike in Québec City with the goal of creating a minimum wage of one dollar a day. These three confrontations, all taking place during the nadir of the Great Depression, are usually viewed as isolated events in standard national labour histories. However, as this paper will demonstrate, events such as these were rarely confined by the porous borders of the nineteenth-century. By reflecting on the connections linking these three clashes, we will argue that labourers in Québec City or Toronto had more in common with workers in Chicago or Saint-Louis than they had with their own employers, and that the North American working class shared a common historical trajectory that transcended national boundaries.\n \n Cosponsored by the Canadian Studies Center and Our Daily Work, Our Daily Lives.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lib.msu.edu\n Contact name: Holly Flynn\n Contact phone: 517-884-0901\n Contact email: flynnhol@msu.edu\n LOCATION:Main Library, W449 (4th Floor, West Wing) END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20140404T173000Z UID:1396377235475@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20140404T173000Z DTEND:20140404T183000Z SUMMARY: Geological Sciences Seminar DESCRIPTION: Dr. Warren Wood, Department of Geological Sciences, "Geoengineering (Climate Modification):\n An Earth Science Perspective"\n \n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: MSU Department of Geological Sciences\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://glg.msu.edu\n Contact name: Pam Robison\n Contact phone: 517 355-4626\n Contact email: robin433@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.geology.msu.edu\n LOCATION:304 Natural Science Building END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20140404T200000Z UID:1394643106762@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20140404T200000Z DTEND:20140404T220000Z SUMMARY:Let's Talk: Poverty and Wealth DESCRIPTION: All members of the campus community are invited to participate in a conversation regarding the issues of "Poverty and Wealth."

A world called Varekai. From the sky falls a solitary young man, and the story of Varekai begins. Parachuted into the shadows of a magical forest, a kaleidoscopic world populated by fantastical creatures, this young man sets off on an adventure both absurd and extraordinary. On this day at the edge of time, in this place of all possibilities, begins an inspired incantation to life rediscovered. The word Varekai means "wherever" in the Romany language of the gypsies the universal wanderers. This production pays tribute to the nomadic soul, to the spirit and art of the circus tradition, and to the infinite passion of those whose quest takes them along the path that leads to Varekai.\n \n SHOWTIMES\n \n Wednesday, April 2 7:30 p.m. \n Thursday, April 3 7:30 p.m. \n Friday, April 4 7:30 p.m.\n Saturday, April 5 4:00 p.m. \n Saturday, April 5 7:30 p.m.\n Sunday, April 6 1:30 p.m. \n Sunday, April 6 5:00 p.m. \n \n\n Price: Tickets from $38\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://whartoncenter.com\n Contact name: Wharton Center Auto-Owners Insurance Ticket Office\n Contact phone: (517) 432-2000\n Contact email: whartoncenter@gmail.com\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://breslincenter.com/events/press/cirque_du_soleil.html\n LOCATION:Breslin Center END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20140405T010000Z UID:1366820068877@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

The story of the renowned advocate for freedom, as well as the anti-apartheid movement itself is told through the life and work of South Africa's beloved "Kathy." Kathy's exemplary leadership continues to inspire South Africans and others around the world to work for freedom, non-racialism, and democracy.\n Ahmed Mohammed Kathrada (or "Kathy," as he is popularly known) was born in 1929 to Indian immigrants in a rural town in South Africa. Kathy was only 12 when he began a life of tireless activism for non-racialism and democracy. \n \n He was arrested several times and, along with eight friends and fellow activists including Nelson Mandela and Walter Sisulu, he was sentenced at the famous Rivonia Treason Trial to life imprisonment. He spent 26 years in prison, eighteen of which were on Robben Island.\n \n In 1989 Kathy was released from prison and, in 1994, in the new democratic South African government, he was elected to the South African Parliament and served as President Mandela's Parliamentary Counselor. \n \n This exhibition is produced in partnership with Project 60/50 at Michigan State University, a year-long community conversation about civil rights and human rights.

A world called Varekai. From the sky falls a solitary young man, and the story of Varekai begins. Parachuted into the shadows of a magical forest, a kaleidoscopic world populated by fantastical creatures, this young man sets off on an adventure both absurd and extraordinary. On this day at the edge of time, in this place of all possibilities, begins an inspired incantation to life rediscovered. The word Varekai means "wherever" in the Romany language of the gypsies the universal wanderers. This production pays tribute to the nomadic soul, to the spirit and art of the circus tradition, and to the infinite passion of those whose quest takes them along the path that leads to Varekai.\n \n SHOWTIMES\n \n Wednesday, April 2 7:30 p.m. \n Thursday, April 3 7:30 p.m. \n Friday, April 4 7:30 p.m.\n Saturday, April 5 4:00 p.m. \n Saturday, April 5 7:30 p.m.\n Sunday, April 6 1:30 p.m. \n Sunday, April 6 5:00 p.m. \n \n\n Price: Tickets from $38\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://whartoncenter.com\n Contact name: Wharton Center Auto-Owners Insurance Ticket Office\n Contact phone: (517) 432-2000\n Contact email: whartoncenter@gmail.com\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://breslincenter.com/events/press/cirque_du_soleil.html\n LOCATION:Breslin Center END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20140406T010000Z UID:1366820087595@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

The story of the renowned advocate for freedom, as well as the anti-apartheid movement itself is told through the life and work of South Africa's beloved "Kathy." Kathy's exemplary leadership continues to inspire South Africans and others around the world to work for freedom, non-racialism, and democracy.\n Ahmed Mohammed Kathrada (or "Kathy," as he is popularly known) was born in 1929 to Indian immigrants in a rural town in South Africa. Kathy was only 12 when he began a life of tireless activism for non-racialism and democracy. \n \n He was arrested several times and, along with eight friends and fellow activists including Nelson Mandela and Walter Sisulu, he was sentenced at the famous Rivonia Treason Trial to life imprisonment. He spent 26 years in prison, eighteen of which were on Robben Island.\n \n In 1989 Kathy was released from prison and, in 1994, in the new democratic South African government, he was elected to the South African Parliament and served as President Mandela's Parliamentary Counselor. \n \n This exhibition is produced in partnership with Project 60/50 at Michigan State University, a year-long community conversation about civil rights and human rights.

Kathy's exemplary leadership continues to inspire South Africans and others around the world to work for freedom, non-racialism, and democracy.\n Ahmed Mohammed Kathrada (or "Kathy," as he is popularly known) was born in 1929 to Indian immigrants in a rural town in South Africa. Kathy was only 12 when he began a life of tireless activism for non-racialism and democracy. \n \n He was arrested several times and, along with eight friends and fellow activists including Nelson Mandela and Walter Sisulu, he was sentenced at the famous Rivonia Treason Trial to life imprisonment. He spent 26 years in prison, eighteen of which were on Robben Island.\n \n In 1989 Kathy was released from prison and, in 1994, in the new democratic South African government, he was elected to the South African Parliament and served as President Mandela's Parliamentary Counselor. \n \n This exhibition is produced in partnership with Project 60/50 at Michigan State University, a year-long community conversation about civil rights and human rights.

Kathy's exemplary leadership continues to inspire South Africans and others around the world to work for freedom, non-racialism, and democracy.\n Ahmed Mohammed Kathrada (or "Kathy," as he is popularly known) was born in 1929 to Indian immigrants in a rural town in South Africa. Kathy was only 12 when he began a life of tireless activism for non-racialism and democracy. \n \n He was arrested several times and, along with eight friends and fellow activists including Nelson Mandela and Walter Sisulu, he was sentenced at the famous Rivonia Treason Trial to life imprisonment. He spent 26 years in prison, eighteen of which were on Robben Island.\n \n In 1989 Kathy was released from prison and, in 1994, in the new democratic South African government, he was elected to the South African Parliament and served as President Mandela's Parliamentary Counselor. \n \n This exhibition is produced in partnership with Project 60/50 at Michigan State University, a year-long community conversation about civil rights and human rights.

The story of the renowned advocate for freedom, as well as the anti-apartheid movement itself is told through the life and work of South Africa's beloved "Kathy." Kathy's exemplary leadership continues to inspire South Africans and others around the world to work for freedom, non-racialism, and democracy.\n Ahmed Mohammed Kathrada (or "Kathy," as he is popularly known) was born in 1929 to Indian immigrants in a rural town in South Africa. Kathy was only 12 when he began a life of tireless activism for non-racialism and democracy. \n \n He was arrested several times and, along with eight friends and fellow activists including Nelson Mandela and Walter Sisulu, he was sentenced at the famous Rivonia Treason Trial to life imprisonment. He spent 26 years in prison, eighteen of which were on Robben Island.\n \n In 1989 Kathy was released from prison and, in 1994, in the new democratic South African government, he was elected to the South African Parliament and served as President Mandela's Parliamentary Counselor. \n \n This exhibition is produced in partnership with Project 60/50 at Michigan State University, a year-long community conversation about civil rights and human rights.

The story of the renowned advocate for freedom, as well as the anti-apartheid movement itself is told through the life and work of South Africa's beloved "Kathy." Kathy's exemplary leadership continues to inspire South Africans and others around the world to work for freedom, non-racialism, and democracy.\n Ahmed Mohammed Kathrada (or "Kathy," as he is popularly known) was born in 1929 to Indian immigrants in a rural town in South Africa. Kathy was only 12 when he began a life of tireless activism for non-racialism and democracy. \n \n He was arrested several times and, along with eight friends and fellow activists including Nelson Mandela and Walter Sisulu, he was sentenced at the famous Rivonia Treason Trial to life imprisonment. He spent 26 years in prison, eighteen of which were on Robben Island.\n \n In 1989 Kathy was released from prison and, in 1994, in the new democratic South African government, he was elected to the South African Parliament and served as President Mandela's Parliamentary Counselor. \n \n This exhibition is produced in partnership with Project 60/50 at Michigan State University, a year-long community conversation about civil rights and human rights.

Scholars have given these groups scant attention, often dismissing them as diplomatically expedient byproducts of the US-Soviet wartime alliance. Bartig shows, however, that these groups coalesced around cultural ties forged well before the war. Underlying these ties were conceptions of musical nationalism and universalism that linked the developments of Soviet and American art music, extolling similarities and shared goals. These short-lived groups thus reveal much about the way American musicians viewed Soviet music before the advent of the Cold War, a time when difference and competition became the watchwords of an era. \n \n Cosponsored by Music in American Life \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lib.msu.edu\n Contact name: Holly Flynn\n Contact phone: 517-884-0901\n Contact email: flynnhol@msu.edu\n LOCATION:Main Library, W449 (4th Floor, West Wing) END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20140416T233000Z UID:1396634656343@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Movie / Film DTSTART:20140416T233000Z DTEND:20140417T035900Z SUMMARY:"Particle Fever" DESCRIPTION: The MSU Physics Department and The East Lansing Film Festival present "Particle Fever," an awe-inspiring documentary that follows six brilliant scientists during the launch of the Large Hadron Collider near Geneva, Switzerland.

These students are talented and motivated youth who have already overcome multiple obstacles that often include poverty, assimilation, and language barriers.

For years we have only known this story from the pigs' point of view. Mr. A. Wolf tells all about what really happened to those three little houses made of straw, sticks and bricks and the three pigs who lived in them. \n \n SHOWTIMES\n Sun, Apr 27, 2014 - 1:30 PM\n Sun, Apr 27, 2014 - 4:00 PM \n\n Price: $8\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://whartoncenter.com\n Contact name: Wharton Center Auto-Owners Insurance Ticketing Office\n Contact phone: (517) 432-2000\n Contact email: whartoncenter@gmail.com\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.whartoncenter.com/events/detail/the-true-story-of-the-three-little-pigs\n LOCATION:Wharton Center for Performing Arts END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20140427T190000Z UID:1388788679870@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

The Moth has presented thousands of stories, told live and without notes, to standing-room-only crowds worldwide.\n \n Each Moth Mainstage features simple, old-fashioned storytelling, by five wildly divergent raconteurs who develop and shape their stories with The Moth's directors. After past sold out performances in Detroit, Grand Rapids and Ann Arbor, The Moth Mainstage comes to East Lansing for the first time with a line-up of writers, performers, and other unique national and local storytellers. You never know how the stories might unfold. Some are dramatic, funny, or suspenseful - and perhaps all these things and more.\n\n Price: Tickets from $32\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://whartoncenter.com\n Contact name: Auto-Owners Insurance Ticket Office\n Contact phone: (517) 432-2000\n Contact email: whartoncenter@gmail.com\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.whartoncenter.com/events/detail/the-moth\n LOCATION:Wharton Center END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20140529T003000Z UID:1400224571076@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20140529T003000Z DTEND:20140528T134500Z SUMMARY:Understanding Federal Funding, Congressional Appropriations, & Agency Priorities DESCRIPTION: Hear from representatives from NIH, NSF, USDA, DARPA, and USAID on federal research funding.

Gurney DESCRIPTION: The setting is a well-to-do vacation colony on the shores of Lake Erie, the time 1945, during the final stages of World War II. Charlie, an incipiently rebellious fourteen-year-old, is summering with his mother and sister (his father is fighting in the Pacific) before going off to an expensive boarding school in the fall. Although he intended to spend the summer loafing and socializing with his friends, the need for spending money forces him to take a job as handyman for an iconoclastic, bohemian art teacher, Anna Trumbull, a former member of the "upper crust" who has lost both her fortune and her regard for the ideals of her upbringing. Sensing a kindred spirit in Charlie, she tries to stretch his mind by teaching him painting and sculpture-and exposing him to "radical" ideas about life and love which, in time, persuade Charlie to reject the notion of going back to school. The result is a family crisis and, more specifically, a showdown between Anna and Charlie's conservative mother, a clash of philosophies which raises as many questions as it answers and, in the end, stimulates the self-awareness which will shape the man Charlie is destined to become.\n \n (Appropriate for ages eight and older - contains mild profanity)\n \n \n \n\n Price: FREE\n Sponsor: Department of Theatre\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://theatre.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Kirk Domer\n Contact phone: 517-355-6690\n Contact email: domer@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://theatre.msu.edu/summercircle\n LOCATION:The Banks of the Red Cedar River (behind the Auditorium Building) END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20140612T000000Z UID:1402427304989@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

Gurney DESCRIPTION: The setting is a well-to-do vacation colony on the shores of Lake Erie, the time 1945, during the final stages of World War II. Charlie, an incipiently rebellious fourteen-year-old, is summering with his mother and sister (his father is fighting in the Pacific) before going off to an expensive boarding school in the fall. Although he intended to spend the summer loafing and socializing with his friends, the need for spending money forces him to take a job as handyman for an iconoclastic, bohemian art teacher, Anna Trumbull, a former member of the "upper crust" who has lost both her fortune and her regard for the ideals of her upbringing. Sensing a kindred spirit in Charlie, she tries to stretch his mind by teaching him painting and sculpture-and exposing him to "radical" ideas about life and love which, in time, persuade Charlie to reject the notion of going back to school. The result is a family crisis and, more specifically, a showdown between Anna and Charlie's conservative mother, a clash of philosophies which raises as many questions as it answers and, in the end, stimulates the self-awareness which will shape the man Charlie is destined to become.\n \n (Appropriate for ages eight and older - contains mild profanity)\n \n \n \n\n Price: FREE\n Sponsor: Department of Theatre\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://theatre.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Kirk Domer\n Contact phone: 517-355-6690\n Contact email: domer@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://theatre.msu.edu/summercircle\n LOCATION:The Banks of the Red Cedar River (behind the Auditorium Building) END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20140614T010000Z UID:1395071059302-0005@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

Grave, who introduces each of the evening's ghoulish, funny delights. In BLOODY MARY, two oversexed teenagers play a dangerous game of cat-and-mouse while driving along a deserted highway late at night. In INSECT LOVE, a scientist and his lab assistant fall in love...while the sci-fi classic The Fly plays in movie theatres across the country. In THE TEN-MINUTE PLAY ABOUT ROSEMARY'S BABY, a young couple moves into an apartment building with nosey neighbors...as well as a demonic presence. In SWAMP GOTHIC, a handsome college student risks man-eating alligators, voodoo and zombies to find his equally handsome missing best friend. In MORNING BECOMES OLESTRA, a conniving femme fatale plans her obese husband's murder...with the help of a vampire. And in DINNER WITH THE SUPERFRIENDS, two gal pals get together for some reminiscing...and crime-fighting.\n \n (Appropriate for ages 14 and older)\n \n \n\n Price: FREE\n Sponsor: Department of Theatre\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://theatre.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Kirk Domer\n Contact phone: 517-355-6690\n Contact email: domer@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://theatre.msu.edu/summercircle\n LOCATION:The Banks of the Red Cedar River (behind the Auditorium Building) END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20140622T040000Z UID:1402518470493-0012@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

A CD player will be available for pre-recorded accompaniment, if the applicant chooses not to perform a cappella. Applicants should also prepare 32-64 counts of dance/choreography.

Years ago the artist's father-in-law, a Libyan opposition leader, was disappeared by the Gaddafi regime. Crafted as an homage to one man, the book shows the cruel effects of dictatorship on intimate relationships and family life. Ms. Matar will speak about the work and how she went about making the book.\n \n Diana Matar is an artist working with photography, testimony, and archive. Using image, sound, and text, her bodies of work investigate issues of immigration, urban development, displacement, memory and political disappearance. Her work is held in numerous public and private collections and has been published in the New Yorker, The New York Times, Internazionale, Ojo de Pez, and many other publications, and has been exhibited world wide. An installation of her work Evidence will be showing at Tate Modern 2014 / 2015. \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lib.msu.edu\n Contact name: Holly Flynn\n Contact phone: 517-884-0901\n Contact email: flynnhol@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.lib.msu.edu/general/events/?e=33\n LOCATION:Main Library, W449 (4th Floor, West Wing) END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20140909T233000Z UID:1409232319229@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

The term haunting can describe the tune that stays with us, but does no harm; a hair-raising visit from a disembodied spirit; or even persistent, harsh reminders of our own imperfect past. Joseph Barnett was haunted by two out of three. The ghosts he saw as a school custodian made his heart pound, but a lifetime of perceived failures threatened to destroy his spirit: A ghost can haunt you for months on end, but your mistakes can haunt you all your life. Come join author Jane Congdon and the RCAH Center for Poetry for an afternoon conversation about Mr. Joe, the writing of memoir, and the difficulties/delights of telling someone else's story.\n \n Facebook event: https://www.facebook.com/events/789871821075881/\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://poetry.rcah.msu.edu/\n Contact name: RCAH Center for Poetry\n Contact phone: 5178841932\n Contact email: cpoetry@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://poetry.rcah.msu.edu/calendar.html\n LOCATION:C304 Snyder Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20140918T201000Z UID:1408123248534@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20140918T201000Z DTEND:20140918T213000Z SUMMARY:Department of Chemistry Colloquium (Thursday Seminar) DESCRIPTION: Professor Viktor Poltavets, MSU, will present a Department of Chemistry Inorganic Seminar on Thursday, September 18, 4:10 pm, Room 136, Chemistry.

Brown, Associate Professor of Islam and Muslim Christian Relations in Georgetown University's School of Foreign Service and Associate Director of the Alwaleed bin Talal Center for Muslim Christian Understanding\n \n Cosponsored by the MSU Muslim Studies Program, MSU Department of Religious Studies, and the Michigan Humanities Council.\n \n Mentions of jihad and the fabled 72 virgins awaiting Muslim martyrs in Paradise have become regular features in both newscasts and popular culture. What is the basis for these ideas in Islam's scriptures, and how have the Muslim scholars who have defined Islam's teachings over the centuries understood them? Once looked at in depth, the Islamic tradition reveals how debates over legitimate violence and the ways in which heavenly rewards have been understood get at larger questions of truth and authority, questions that are just as relevant in the Western tradition as they are in Islam.\n \n Dr. Brown's publications include The Canonization of al-Bukhari and Muslim: The Formation and Function of the Sunni Hadith Canon (Brill, 2007), Hadith: Muhammad's Legacy in the Medieval and Modern World (Oneworld, 2009), Muhammad: A Very Short Introduction (Oxford University Press, 2011) and Misquoting Muhammad: The Challenges and Choices of Interpreting the Prophet's Legacy (Oneworld, 2014).\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lib.msu.edu\n Contact name: Holly Flynn\n Contact phone: 517-884-0901\n Contact email: flynnhol@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.lib.msu.edu/general/events/?e=33\n LOCATION:Main Library, W449 (4th Floor, West Wing) END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20140918T233000Z UID:1409233408134@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

MALCOLM TROUT VISITING SCHOLAR PROGRAM DESCRIPTION: David R. Just, Ph.D. uses the tools of psychology and economics to find why we eat and what we can do about it. He is currently a professor in the Charles H. Dyson School of Applied Economics and Management and the director of the Cornell Center for Behavioral Economics in Child Nutrition Programs. David has conducted dozens of field and laboratory experiments identifying the subtle factors in the environment that can lead children and adults to make the healthy choice. His work on behavioral economics and food assistance programs has shown how low cost solutions-like placing fruit in an attractive bowl-can lead consumers to make healthier choices without reducing overall availability of choices, or breaking the program budget. David's research has been published in scores of research articles. His research has won numerous awards, including being recognized in Discover Magazine's list of top science stories.\n His work has been reported in numerous media outlets including the NPR, Wall Street Journal, New York Times, US News and World Reports, Newsweek, Washington Post among many others. David received his PhD and MS degrees in Agricultural and Resource Economics from the University of California, Berkeley, and a Bachelor's degree in Economics from Brigham Young University. \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Linda Young\n Contact email: youngli@anr.msu.edu\n LOCATION:University Club, Heritage Room END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20140929T230000Z UID:1411399241313@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Movie / Film DTSTART:20140929T230000Z DTEND:20140930T013000Z SUMMARY:"Once Upon a Time Proletarian" screening with Q/A with director Xiaolu Guo DESCRIPTION: ONCE UPON A TIME PROLETARIAN (2009, 75 min.), a documentary on China's new class struggle\n \n Screening with Q/A with director Xiaolu Guo.

Taub is Senior Lecturer in the Department of Communications at Hebrew University, and he contributes op-ed columns to the Israeli and international press. Taub believes in the right of all peoples, including the Jews, to self-determination in their own nation state. He supports the creation of a Palestinian state beside Israel. Taub distinguishes between original Zionism, or the Zionism of Liberty (or Zionism of State), and a new messianic Zionism that he calls a Zionism of Land. In Taub's view, Zionism of Land is an ideological negation of the original Zionism of Liberty and also the road to Israel's demise.

DESCRIPTION: Kevin Elliott\n Michigan State University\n http://lymanbriggs.msu.edu/faculty/bios/user.cfm?UserID=121 \n \n Private industry now pays for about two-thirds of scientific research and development in the US, but there have been notable cases in which industry-funded research has been manipulated and designed to produce misleading results that harm the public. Prominent examples include tobacco-industry studies developed to exonerate cigarettes and second-hand smoke, pharmaceutical research strategically designed to assist with marketing, and fossil-fuel industry efforts to challenge research on climate change. This talk will explore these worries about industry-funded research, examine the conditions under which research tends to be inappropriately influenced, and offer some suggestions for promoting research that can be widely trusted.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Lyman Briggs College\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lbc.msu.edu/\n Contact email: lbcnews@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://lbc.msu.edu/SpeakerSeries/\n LOCATION:C-106 Holmes Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20141008T040000Z UID:1410880925159-0023@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20141008 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20141009 SUMMARY:Ticket Sale: Easton Corbin in Concert with Jana Krammer DESCRIPTION: Ticket sales begin Friday, September 19 at 10:00am through the Wharton Center Box Office. \n \n MSU Student Price: $10 limit 2 per ID\n \n Public Price: $25\n \n Ticket Sales: Wharton Center Box Office, whartoncenter.com, or 517-432-2000 \n \n \n \n Concert Information: Doors open at 8:00 pm and the concert will start at 9:00 pm on Thursday, October 23rd\n\n Price: $10 for Students, $25 for Public\n Sponsor: UAB\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.uabevents.com\n Contact name: University Activities Board\n Contact phone: 355-3354\n Contact email: uab@rhs.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://uabevents.com\n LOCATION:Wharton Center Box Office END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20141008T040000Z UID:1402518470493-0120@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

His project Eighteen, environmental portraits of Arab youth in Israel, will be on exhibition at Brody Hall beginning in early October. Dvir describes this project as "an artistic point of contact serving as an invitation to get closer.... An inside view by one who is typically regarded as an outsider. If I, a Jewish Israeli man, have been accepted and was allowed into my subjects' personal lives - so can others." Mr. Dvir will speak about his projects including Eighteen, Belief, and others, and will discuss the role of contemporary photography in shaping perspectives and in leading social/political changes.\n \n Natan Dvir received his MBA from Tel Aviv University and his MFA in Photography from the School of Visual Arts (NY), after which he became a faculty member at the International Center of Photography (ICP). Based in New York City he photographs around the world. Natan's main projects have been exhibited in solo and group exhibitions in the United States, Europe, South America and Israel. \n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lib.msu.edu\n Contact name: Holly Flynn\n Contact phone: 517-884-0901\n Contact email: flynnhol@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.lib.msu.edu/general/events/?e=33\n LOCATION:Main Library, W449 (4th Floor, West Wing) END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20141021T230000Z UID:1409234896148-0008@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20141021T230000Z DTEND:20141022T010000Z SUMMARY:UAB Weekly meeting DESCRIPTION: Come to the weekly UAB Meeting and join in on the fun!

But at What Cost? A Free Screening of America the Beautiful 3 DESCRIPTION: America the Beautiful 3: Film Screening and Panel Discussion\n \n Beneath the glossy, perfect images presented in pop culture there are more desperate stakes at hand. Who is at fault for perpetuating such a harmful culture? Is it corporate greed in advertising? Is it the media that projects these images? Could parents be responsible?\n \n In America the Beautiful 3, award-winning director Darryl Roberts tackles these complicated questions and reveals the shocking extent to which America's youth is exposed to sexual content at an increasingly early age. In the documentary, Roberts follows individuals and families with personal stories related to sexuality, relationships, pornography, assault, trauma, eating disorders, and body image issues. This film features interviews with MSU students. \n \n Discussion by a panel of experts following the screening: \n • Amy Bonomi, PhD, MSU Professor and Chair of Human Development and Family Studies \n • Anna Kowalski, MFT, Associate Clinical Director of Monte Nido Eating Disorder Treatment Center \n • Emily Nichols, MSU Graduate Student, Human Development and Family Studies Violence\n • L.

We eat, sleep, work, and most of the time these daily activities are what Woolf calls "moments of non-being." Occasionally, there are times when we are shocked out of our every-day complacency to really see the world and all it contains. Woolf calls these shocks "Moments of Being," and she contends that it is the job of a writer to identify and examine these moments, releasing whole stories that linger within these flashes of consciousness. This workshop is designed to help writers identify their own "moments of being," and to mine these experiences for material that lends itself to their most engaging narratives.\n \n Susan Tekulve is the author of In the Garden of Stone, winner of the 2012 South Carolina First Novel Award and a 2014 Gold IPPY Award as the best novel published in the South by an independent press. She's also published three short story collections: Savage Pilgrims, Wash Day and My Mother's War Stories. An Associate Professor of English, she teaches in the BFA and MFA in creative writing programs at Converse College.\n \n Facebook event: https://www.facebook.com/events/1542613715972049/\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://poetry.rcah.msu.edu/\n Contact name: RCAH Center for Poetry\n Contact phone: 5178841932\n Contact email: cpoetry@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://poetry.rcah.msu.edu/calendar.html\n LOCATION:Snyder C210H Conference Room END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20141104T210000Z UID:1415030671077@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

Our job is to balance those forces, to bring delight to a reader through the recognition of patterns and continuities, and to heighten that delight by introducing radical and unexpected adjustments to those patterns. By investigating Bop poems, blues poems, sonnets and techniques such as anaphora and lineation in the works of poets Lucille Clifton, Campbell McGrath and others, we will consider patterns and structures as something to try on, walk into, a temporary home, a borrowed manner or means of movement. We will complete writing exercises meant to help us think of form as a way to expand our vision as poets rather than limit that vision.\n \n Richard Mulkey is the author of five poetry collections, including most recently, Ravenous: New & Selected Poems, Toward Any Darkness, Bluefield Breakdown, and Before the Age of Reason.

The members of the Ottawa, Potawatomi, and Chippewa Tribes quickly responded to the Union's call. The documentary is their story, the story of Company K, First Michigan Sharp Shooters, the only all Native American unit in the North. In May 2010 the Ogitchewdaw Warriors Society, a group of modern day Native American veterans, traveled from Michigan to Andersonville, Georgia, to honor the graves of their ancestors who were imprisoned, died and buried there.\n Michigan historian and author Chris Czopek will be here to introduce the film and answer questions. He has spent over 15 years researching Michigan Native Americans in the Civil War and has published a book called Who Was Who in Company K, the first book ever written about Company K and a resource for those wanting to know more about its members and their service...and their last resting place.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lib.msu.edu\n Contact name: Holly Flynn\n Contact phone: 517-884-0901\n Contact email: flynnhol@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.lib.msu.edu/general/events/?e=12\n LOCATION:Main Library, W449 (4th Floor, West Wing) END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20141112T003000Z UID:1409629389662@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

But what happens when data get in the way of a good story? In this talk, I will detail ongoing empirical and theoretical work from my lab on testosterone and sexuality that provides a new way of conceptualizing the evolved social functions of testosterone. Using results that range from experiments to qualitative focus groups, I will describe how testosterone can be uncoupled from behavioral masculinity per se in humans, and linked to other social constructs. I will highlight how social neuroendocrinology provides a way to ask hormonal questions that have evolution and social construction in their answers, and what this means for the ways that gender/sex can and can't be separated.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Lyman Briggs College\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lbc.msu.edu/\n Contact email: lbcnews@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://lbc.msu.edu/SpeakerSeries/\n LOCATION:C-106 Holmes Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20141203T003000Z UID:1409665260853@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

Combining his classical training with a desire to reach beyond the boundaries of the concert hall, and a voracious interest in the music of our times, he developed a unique style amongst today's violinists, one that according to the Boston Globe, possesses "a balletic lightness of touch and a sense of whimsy and imagination."

New York City Jews and Name-changing in Postwar Era" DESCRIPTION: Presenter: Kirsten Fermaglich, Department of History, Michigan State University\n \n Thousands of name change petitions were submitted to the New York City Civil Court during the 1940s and 1950s, with disproportionate numbers of submissions from people with Jewish names. Debates over Jewish identity at this time tended to equate name changing with passing and escaping the Jewish community. Quietly challenging portraits of name changers as "passers," however, were Jewish voices like sociologist Erving Goffman, who described name changing as a more complex act of "covering": hiding the most obtrusive parts of a stigma so that it did not impede daily life. Name change petitions, published writings, and unpublished letters from name changers during the postwar era suggest that "covering" more accurately reflected the complicated practice of name changing for the majority of American Jews. \n \n\n Price: free and open to the public\n Sponsor: Jewish Studies\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://events.msu.edu/jewishstudies/\n Contact name: Jewish Studies\n Contact phone: (517) 432-3493\n Contact email: jewishst@msu.edu\n LOCATION:Wells Hall B-342 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20150116T150000Z UID:1415887330768@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Training DTSTART:20150116T150000Z DTEND:20150116T170000Z SUMMARY:Zotero: Citation Management 2.0 DESCRIPTION: Also on the following dates: \n Thursday, January 22 2015 4:30 PM - 6:30 PM \n Location: Business Library, Room 22 \n Friday, February 27 2015 10:00 AM - 12:00 PM \n Location: Reference Instruction Room (W101D) \n \n A comprehensive introduction to Zotero, a free citation management tool.\n Learn how to:\n -Import and manage references from library e-resources and the web\n -Share references with others\n -Format references and use with Word\n This class will teach the Zotero Firefox browser based tool.

The daughter of teachers, her family was forced to flee the Nazi regime when Mueller was 15. They immigrated to the US and settled in the Mid-west. Mueller attended the University of Evansville, where her father was a professor, and did her graduate study at Indiana University. Her collections of poetry include "The Private Life," which was the 1975 Lamont Poetry Selection; "Second Language" (1986); "The Need to Hold Still" (1980), which received the National Book Award; "Learning to Play by Ear" (1990); and "Alive Together: New & Selected Poems" (1996), which won the Pulitzer Prize. Her other awards and honors include the Carl Sandburg Award, the Helen Bullis Award, the Ruth Lilly Prize, and a National Endowment for the Arts fellowship. She has also published translations, most recently "Circe's Mountain" by Marie Luise Kaschnitz (1990).\n \n Participants in this workshop should have some familiarity with the poems from Mueller's "Alive Together: New & Selected Poems." Grand Rapids-based poet Linda Nemec Foster will join us to speak about her professional relationship with Mueller and lead discussion along with Professor Anita Skeen about Mueller's poems. There will be another workshop on Monday, January 26, which will focus on writing poems based on tonight's discussion. We welcome writers of all levels and backgrounds to both workshops.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: RCAH Center for Poetry at MSU\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://poetry.rcah.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Linnea Jimison\n Contact phone: 517-884-1932\n Contact email: cpoetry@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://poetry.rcah.msu.edu/calendar.html\n LOCATION:Snyder C201 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20150122T000000Z UID:1417792680569@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Academic DTSTART:20150122T000000Z DTEND:20150122T010000Z SUMMARY:Finding a Summer Research Opportunity DESCRIPTION: There are a variety of summer opportunities available for students. Programs are hosted by colleges and universities around the United States and they provide an intensive research experience on a particular topic within a scholarly discipline. Participants generally work with an advisor on a research project over the duration of their respective programs (usually 10 to 12 weeks). Many host universities cover all expenses (including travel, accommodations, and food) and provide a stipend. For undergraduates with plans for graduate or professional school after MSU, summer research provides the opportunity to expand your professional network and acquire experience in an area of interest. In this workshop, you will learn more about summer research, the benefits of participation, and effective search strategies, including how to find and apply for opportunities. This program is a repeat of the workshop held on October 28, 2014. Sponsored by the Undergraduate Research Office.

We welcome writers of all levels and backgrounds to both workshops.\n \n About Lisel Mueller: Poet and translator Lisel Mueller was born in Hamburg, Germany in 1924. The daughter of teachers, her family was forced to flee the Nazi regime when Mueller was 15. They immigrated to the US and settled in the Mid-west. Mueller attended the University of Evansville, where her father was a professor, and did her graduate study at Indiana University. Her collections of poetry include "The Private Life," which was the 1975 Lamont Poetry Selection; "Second Language" (1986); "The Need to Hold Still" (1980), which received the National Book Award; "Learning to Play by Ear" (1990); and "Alive Together: New & Selected Poems" (1996), which won the Pulitzer Prize. Her other awards and honors include the Carl Sandburg Award, the Helen Bullis Award, the Ruth Lilly Prize, and a National Endowment for the Arts fellowship.

Not as a backup or "Plan B," but as first choice. In her memoir Texas Girl, she raises fundamental questions about the nature of family and maternity at the turn of the twenty-first century. At a moment when SMCs grace the covers of magazines and Hollywood films, Texas Girl adds the perspective of someone who boldly side-steps the social expectation for a woman to take a life-partner before she has a child. Beginning with a metaphorical conception, Texas Girl charts a long four-year journey, including infertility, miscarriage, and high-risk pregnancy, traveling from Indiana to Texas and back to the snowy north. In this compelling coming-of-age narrative, Silbergleid explores the notion of the chosen family, as close female friends provide perspective, support, and comic relief along the way.\n \n Robin Silbergleid is the author of two chapbooks of poems: Pas de Deux and Frida Kahlo, My Sister. The Baby Book, a full-length collection of poems about infertility and pregnancy loss, is forthcoming from CavanKerry Press in 2015. She holds both a PhD in English and an MFA in Creative Writing from Indiana University. She is currently an associate professor of English and Director of Creative Writing at Michigan State University.\n Cosponsored by GenCen.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lib.msu.edu\n Contact name: Michael Rodriguez\n Contact phone: 517-353-8700\n Contact email: rodri171@mail.lib.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://robinsilbergleid.com\n LOCATION:Main Library North Conference Room, W449 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20150130T050000Z UID:1421268309108-0012@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20150130 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20150131 SUMMARY:Spartan Film Festival Application Open DESCRIPTION: Have you made a film for class or for fun?

This research examines patterns of knowledge maturation in the context of New Product Development at a home-appliances manufacturer. We view knowledge maturation pragmatically as an ensemble of many myopic maturation processes. Each myopic maturation process progresses iteratively from one understanding to another in the local context of applying knowledge to achieve a particular work goal. These knowledge maturation processes are situated and empirically plotted in the product's development lifecycle and in the company's formal and informal networks of knowledge sharing.\n \n BIO >> Dov Te'eni holds the Mexico Chair for Information Systems at Tel Aviv University. He studies how computers support people deciding, communicating, sharing knowledge and interacting. Dov has published articles in Management Science, MIS Quarterly, Organization Science, IEEE Transactions amongst many other journals. He has worked on joint research with Digital (in Maynard), Progressive (in Cleveland) and software houses in Israel. He has been faculty or taught at Oxford, Yale, New York University, Case Western Reserve University, National University of Singapore, University of Amsterdam, and Harvard. He is the Past President of AIS - the international Association of Information Systems, and has served as Senior Editor for MIS Quarterly, AIS Transactions of HCI and associate editor for Journal of AIS, Information and Organizations, and Internet Research. He also serves as academic director of the Orange Institute for Internet Research at Tel Aviv University. Dov was awarded AIS Fellowship in 2008.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Wietske Van Osch\n Contact email: vanosch@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://cas.msu.edu/events/knowledge-maturation-knowledge-networks-in-new-product-development-by-dov-\n LOCATION:Room 182, Com Arts and Sciences END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20150203T210000Z UID:1419874344523@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20150203T210000Z DTEND:20150203T220000Z SUMMARY: "All the Trees of the Forest: The Extraordinary Story of Israel's Woodlands" DESCRIPTION: Presenter: Alon Tal, Ben Gurion University\n \n In an era when deforestation constitutes a paramount global challenge, Israel's woodlands tell an extraordinary story. They carry the scars of past military invaders and conquests. But most of the trees in Israel's forests are contemporary and represent an expression of recent national zeal to restore the woodlands of the Bible, making a harsh climate more hospitable. Drawing on insider anecdotes, the presentation describes how the trial-and-error process evolved that transformed drylands and degraded soils into flourishing parks, rangelands, and renewed ecosystems. The talk is part of a tour of Alon Tal's for his book "All the Trees of the Forest: Israel's Woodlands from the Bible to the Present" (Yale University Press, 2013), presenting the first history of Israel's forest to be published in over forty years. \n \n Co-sponsored with James Madison College; Science, Technology, Environment and Public Policy; and the Department of Forestry as part of their Forestry Hanover Seminar Series. \n \n\n Price: Free and open to the Public\n Sponsor: Jewish Studies\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://events.msu.edu/jewishstudies/\n Contact name: Jewish Studies\n Contact phone: (517) 432-3493\n Contact email: jewishst@msu.edu\n LOCATION:Natural Resources Room 225 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20150203T220000Z UID:1422285666268@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20150203T220000Z DTEND:20150203T230000Z SUMMARY:Campus Challenge Informational Meeting, Gift of Life Michigan DESCRIPTION: Informational meeting regarding the Campus Challenge, an organ donation drive sponsored by the Gift of Life Michigan. \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Gift of Life Michigan\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://giftoflifemichigan.org/campuschallenge\n Contact name: Brendan Burke\n Contact phone: (248) 496-3715\n Contact email: burkebr8@msu.edu\n LOCATION:EL E105 Fee Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20150204T000000Z UID:1419874788896@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20150204T000000Z DTEND:20150204T013000Z SUMMARY:"The EU and its Working Definition of Anti-Semitism" DESCRIPTION: Presenter: R. Amy Elman, Department of Political Science, Kalamazoo College\n \n In 2005, the European Union appeared to have adopted a definition of anti-Semitism because, two years prior, the EU claimed that it had trouble monitoring the prejudice without one. This lecture examines the EU and its politics surrounding anti-Semitism and the definition it never formally adopted. \n \n R. Amy Elman is Professor of Political Science and the William Weber Chair of Social Science at Kalamazoo College in Michigan. Her book, "The European Union, Antisemitism and the Politics of Denial" (University of Nebraska Press, 2015), explores the conditions that precipitated the EU's efforts to stem anti-Semitism and the consequences. Copies of her book will be available for sale at the lecture. Professor Elman has additionally been published on issues such as the response of states and the European Union to citizenship, migration, sex discrimination, and anti-Semitism.

DESCRIPTION: Using a second (or third) language is not merely a matter of learning new vocabulary. It's not even just a matter of learning the 'right' phrases to use in different situations. Using another language requires us to shift our frame of reference, to alter our worldview. At this Center for Poetry event co-lead by the RCAH Language Mentors, we'll discuss how an experience-perhaps an everyday, familiar event-changes as a result of the language used. How are our behaviors changed? How are we changed? Come to share your second language experiences-from shopping at the market to debating world politics.\n \n Facebook event: https://www.facebook.com/events/770349733043091/\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://poetry.rcah.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Linnea Jimison\n Contact phone: 5178841932\n Contact email: cpoetry@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://poetry.rcah.msu.edu/calendar.html\n LOCATION:Snyder C202 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20150211T050000Z UID:1423687091406-0002@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20150211 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20150212 SUMMARY:Battle of the Bands Application DESCRIPTION: Performance date will be April 10th at the International Center\n \n Bands will need to arrive by 6:30PM and will need to stay throughout the entire event.\n \n Event starts at 9pm, doors 8:30pm.\n \n \n \n \n \n Here is the link to the online submission form:\n \n https://docs.google.com/forms/d/10ktWWvHPXnqOUCOfEFnqUyGj5tkJLcJvwdOcQKZtOSE/viewform\n \n Please go to uabevents.com for more information on applying and other requirements.\n\n Price: FREE\n Sponsor: UAB\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.uabevents.com\n Contact name: University Activities Board\n Contact phone: 355-3354\n Contact email: uab@rhs.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://uabevents.com\n END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20150211T050000Z UID:1418830597334-0024@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

Roundtable panelists will examine the larger context of racial inequality (economic, political, social, and cultural) mediated by identity politics in multicultural and diasporic societies in global contexts.\n \n Panelists: Yael Aronoff, Lisa Biggs, Jennifer Cobbina, Kenneth Harrow, Austin Jackson, Ahmad Rahman, and Chezare Warren\n \n Moderator: R.

These cells in the cancer setting, however, can hinder both the anti-tumor immune response and the effectiveness of anti-cancer vaccines. Therefore understanding the factors important for Treg maintenance and function is relevant to a wide range of diseases. We found that neuritin, a gpi-anchored molecule known for its role in the nervous system, was highly expressed by induced and natural Tregs. Neuritin expression was important for the maintenance of the Treg phenotype and the function of these cells in vivo. In a mouse model of colitis, neuritin ablation undermined Treg-mediated immune control evidenced by poor retention of Foxp3 expression by Tregs and elevated levels of proinflammatory cytokines. Additionally, the growth of implanted tumors was strongly impeded in the absence of neuritin. In all these findings characterize neuritin as a Treg-derived factor important for immune tolerance and a potential therapeutic opportunity to modulate the Treg pool. Ongoing studies are exploring the mechanisms responsible for neuritin-mediated immune regulation and elucidating the molecule events and cells involved.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Dept. of Physiology\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.psl.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Chris Shaltry\n Contact phone: 884-5034\n Contact email: shaltryc@cns.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.psl.msu.edu/\n LOCATION:1425 Biomedical and Physical Sciences Bldg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20150219T170000Z UID:1422999896160@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Academic DTSTART:20150219T170000Z DTEND:20150219T180000Z SUMMARY:Refusing Palliation and the Limits of Parental Authority DESCRIPTION: This lecture is a job talk for a Clinical Ethics faculty position candidate in the Center for Ethics and Humanities in the Life Sciences.\n \n Tyler S.

We developed an integrated genomic strategy based on the use of gene expression signatures of oncogenic pathway activity as a framework to analyze genomic data from human tumors in combination with data from a genome-wide RNAi screen. Using this strategy, we identified specific DNA amplifications, and importantly, essential genes within these amplicons representing key genetic drivers, including known and novel regulators of oncogenesis and oncogenic signaling. Our results demonstrate that this general strategy has the potential to identify drivers of oncogenesis and oncogenic signaling pathways which may represent putative therapeutic targets within amplicons through an integrated use of genetic, genomic, and genome-wide RNAi data.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Dept. of Physiology\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.psl.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Chris Shaltry\n Contact phone: 884-5034\n Contact email: shaltryc@cns.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.psl.msu.edu/\n LOCATION:1425 Biomedical and Physical Sciences Bldg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20150226T150000Z UID:1423167699611@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Training DTSTART:20150226T150000Z DTEND:20150226T170000Z SUMMARY:Endnote X6 and Endnote Web DESCRIPTION: A basic introduction to Endnote and Endnote Web.

My journalism landed me in prison on trumped-up charges, a brutal experience brought to life by Jon Stewart in his recent film Rosewater. While I cannot safely return to Iran in the foreseeable future, I still want to speak out for free expression and the right to hold unpopular ideas there.\n \n "Soon after the 1979 revolution, Iran's new government kicked Baha'i students out of all universities and fired Baha'i professors. Baha'is are the largest non-Muslim religious minority in Iran, and part of a worldwide community that upholds ideas of non-violence, universal compulsory education and the equality of men and women. Hard-liners in the government see them and their ideas as a threat to their rigid orthodoxy, which can only be neutralized by removing Baha'is from public life. Denying them access to higher education is a key part of this strategy.\n \n This film screening is the story of the struggle the Iranian Baha'is face as they strive to educate themselves."\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: John Everett\n Contact phone: (734) 417-4550\n Contact email: everett.john1991@gmail.com\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.educationisnotacrime.me/\n LOCATION:The International Center room 303 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20150228T000000Z UID:1423515854468-0001@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20150228T000000Z DTEND:20150228T045900Z SUMMARY:Campus Center Cinemas - The Best of Me DESCRIPTION: \n\n Price: FREE for undergraduate students living in MSU residence halls, $2 for all others\n Sponsor: University Activities Board (UAB) and the Residence Halls Assoc.\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.uabevents.com\n Contact name: University Activities Board\n Contact phone: 355-3354\n Contact email: uab@rhs.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://uabevents.com\n LOCATION:B Wing, Wells Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20150228T001000Z UID:1423515821750-0001@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20150228T001000Z DTEND:20150228T045900Z SUMMARY:Campus Center Cinemas - Birdman DESCRIPTION: \n\n Price: FREE for undergraduate students living in MSU residence halls, $2 for all others\n Sponsor: University Activities Board (UAB) and the Residence Halls Assoc.\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.uabevents.com\n Contact name: University Activities Board\n Contact phone: 355-3354\n Contact email: uab@rhs.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://uabevents.com\n LOCATION:B Wing, Wells Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20150228T001500Z UID:1423515675815-0001@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20150228T001500Z DTEND:20150228T045900Z SUMMARY:Campus Center Cinemas - The Interview DESCRIPTION: \n\n Price: FREE for undergraduate students living in MSU residence halls, $2 for all others\n Sponsor: University Activities Board (UAB) and the Residence Halls Assoc.\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.uabevents.com\n Contact name: University Activities Board\n Contact phone: 355-3354\n Contact email: uab@rhs.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://uabevents.com\n LOCATION:B Wing, Wells Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20150228T010000Z UID:1421608082083@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

In mouse models, HSF1 is co-opted by tumor cells to promote their survival, to the detriment of their hosts. The common assumption was that these effects are mediated through regulation of chaperone protein expression. Integrating cell biological, genomic and bioinformatic methods, we reveal a direct and pervasive role for HSF1 in many facets of tumorigenesis, extending far beyond protein folding and stress responses to include cell cycle, apoptosis, energy metabolism and other proliferation-associated processes. We used these data to define an HSF1-regulated expression signature in malignancy and analyzed previously published expression data sets from collections of breast, colon and lung patient tumors with outcome associations. We find that high expression of this HSF1 cancer signature correlates strongly with metastasis and death. Thus, HSF1 engages a regulatory program in the highly malignant state that is distinct from the classic heat-shock response. In a second series of experiments, we used an integrated chemical, genetic and genomic approach and revealed a fundamental link between anabolic cellular processes: protein production, HSF1 activity and energy metabolism. Importantly, exploiting this link with translation initiation inhibitors such as rocaglates selectively impaired the proliferation of neoplastic cells. Moreover, this tight coordination of protein synthesis and HSF1 activation suggests a unifying principle that explains the HSF1 activation we previously observed in the extraordinarily wide range of human cancers.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Dept. of Physiology\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.psl.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Chris Shaltry\n Contact phone: 884-5034\n Contact email: shaltryc@cns.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.psl.msu.edu/\n LOCATION:1425 Biomedical and Physical Sciences Bldg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20150306T000000Z UID:1425588713471@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Movie / Film DTSTART:20150306T000000Z DTEND:20150306T023000Z SUMMARY:Global Film Series: The Road to Fame DESCRIPTION: The College of Arts & Letters will screen The Road to Fame (2013) in B122 Wells Hall.

By imaging their behavior in the intact living brain using two-photon microscopy, we demonstrated for the first time that they constantly survey the physiological brain by extending and retracting their fine processes. We also showed that they rapidly respond to focal brain injury, and identified purinergic signaling as a key pathway mediating these unexpectedly rapid responses. In recent years we studied how microglia become activated during the course of neuroinflammatory disease, and found a molecular link between blood-brain barrier (BBB) disruption and new lesion formation in an animal model for multiple sclerosis. Ongoing research is focused at characterizing the activation profile of microglia and macrophages after ischemic injury in vivo. Future research interests include studying the cellular and molecular mechanisms through which microglia interact with the BBB and potentially regulate its disruption and its restoration at different stages of neurological disease, as well as deciphering the effects of microglial activation on neuronal plasticity and function in physiology and in disease. The seminar with also highlight the technologies and methods that make in vivo imaging studies of ongoing biological processes in the brain and spinal cord of mice possible.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Dept. of Physiology\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.psl.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Chris Shaltry\n Contact phone: 884-5034\n Contact email: shaltryc@cns.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.psl.msu.edu/\n LOCATION:1425 Biomedical and Physical Sciences Bldg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20150312T170000Z UID:1423580645170@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20150312T170000Z DTEND:20150312T180000Z SUMMARY:Pediatric Research Rounds DESCRIPTION: From Macro to Micro: What Matters for Adverse Birth Outcomes"\n \n Presented by: Claire E.

How tissues respond to ischemia followed by reperfusion determines the outcome of critical events ranging from cardiopulmonary bypass surgery to hemorrhagic shock. And the primary pathway initiating cell death in high energy-demand tissues such as the heart, brain, and kidney centers on mitochondria. In all of these organs, an ischemic insult directly affects cellular and mitochondrial energetics, calcium handling, and free radical homeostasis. The subsequent reperfusion ultimately initiates apoptotic signaling cascades through mitochondrial dependent pathways triggered by calcium and reactive oxygen species. These consequences underlie certain clinical practices-for example, the use of cold cardioplegia used to metabolically arrest the heart prior to transplantation. Yet we lack an understanding of the relevant metabolic and signaling processes that is detailed enough to explain experimental observations, predict differential outcomes, and help guide therapeutics. A systems approach, using experiments to inform computational models and models to interpret and design relevant experiments, is necessary to expand our understanding of the biochemistry and physiology that underpin mitochondrial reperfusion injury. Using this approach, investigation of mitochondrial calcium fluxes and sequestration reveals a novel mechanism responsible for the protective effect of adenine nucleotides during mitochondrial calcium loading. Furthermore, systems analysis identifies the mechanism by which succinate accumulates in ischemic tissue and leads to the burst of free radicals observed during reperfusion.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Dept. of Physiology\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.psl.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Chris Shaltry\n Contact phone: 884-5034\n Contact email: shaltryc@cns.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.psl.msu.edu/\n LOCATION:1425 Biomedical and Physical Sciences Bldg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20150319T150000Z UID:1425480318722@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20150319T150000Z DTEND:20150319T160000Z SUMMARY:Department of Teacher Education Guest Speaker DESCRIPTION: Invited guest speaker: Alexander Heffner, Anchor of PBS Public Affairs Interview Program called 'Open Mind', Journalist, Writer, and Civic Educator.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Terry Edwards\n Contact phone: 517-432-4930\n Contact email: edwar375@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://calendar.outreach.msu.edu/ListView.aspx?CalendarID=ee4bc32f-f02e-4745-99b6-2246dd3e232\n LOCATION:Room 252 Erickson Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20150319T180000Z UID:1425412770481@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20150319T180000Z DTEND:20150319T200000Z SUMMARY:ESPP Student Research Seminar DESCRIPTION: Cheng-Hua Liu presents his research in "Antibiotic Resistance"\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Karessa Weir\n Contact phone: 5173539246\n Contact email: weirkare@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.espp.msu.edu/events/research_seminars/index.php\n LOCATION:273 Giltner Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20150320T000000Z UID:1426010579835@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20150320T000000Z DTEND:20150320T020000Z SUMMARY:An Evening with the Author: Jacqueline Woodson DESCRIPTION: Jacqueline Woodson is the author of more than 30 highly-acclaimed books for children and young adults.

A Maurerschule existed from 1942-44, and trained hundreds of prisoners, who were then assigned to bricklaying and construction units in the Auschwitz complex. A famous prisoner watercolor drawn of the Maurerschule says in German: "It saved hundreds of children's lives." Professor Waltzer's presentation, based on original research in oral testimonies and memoirs by former inmates as well as some interviews, explores whether the Maurerschule was a haven and refuge, offering asylum to young prisoners, or a school for critical skills and credentialing that helped some survive in the Nazi camp universe, or just another space in Auschwitz, with prisoners subjected to selections, medical experiments, and unyielding Nazi terror. How did those who survived and later recalled it view it in retrospect?

These diseases are caused by an overzealous immune response to allergens in which immunoglobulin E (IgE) and mast cells play critical roles. Thus, aggregation of high affinity IgE receptor (FceRI) on mast cells by allergen results in rapid release of mast cells granules (degranulation) and the generation of inflammatory mediators which are responsible for the manifestations of allergic diseases. Previous reports have demonstrated that activation of G protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) exacerbated FceRI-induced responses in mast cells. Agonist-induced phosphorylation of GPCRs by GPCR kinases (GRKs) leads to the recruitment of a family of adapter molecules called β-arrestins, which promotes desensitization and internalization of the receptor. My research focuses on the role of these adapter molecules in regulating GPCR-induced mast cell functions. In addition, I have made the novel observation that GRKs and β-arrestins modulate FceRI-induced signaling in mast cells. Thus, understanding these previously unappreciated mechanisms of mast cell activation may lead to the development of novel approaches for the treatment of asthma and allergic diseases.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Dept. of Physiology\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.psl.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Chris Shaltry\n Contact phone: 884-5034\n Contact email: shaltryc@cns.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.psl.msu.edu/\n LOCATION:1425 Biomedical and Physical Sciences Bldg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20150326T171000Z UID:1416247963792@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Public Programs DTSTART:20150326T171000Z DTEND:20150326T175000Z SUMMARY:Farm-To-Table Dining: Local Restaurants Using Local Food DESCRIPTION: Join Lansing-area restaurant and farm owners for a panel discussion on local restaurants using local food.

To finish a piece, writers need to think more thoroughly about revision--taking all that scattered light and with some guiding ideas--a prosody--find ways to sharpen and compress and fully transform that wild and raw music into a finished work of art, all without losing any of that wildness.\n \n About Dennis: Dennis Hinrichsen is the author of seven collections of poetry: "Rip-tooth" (2011), "Kurosawa's Dog" (2009), "Message to Be Spoken into the Left Ear of God" (2004), "Cage of Water" (2004), "Detail from The Garden of Earthly Delights" (2000), "The Rain That Falls This Far" (1991) and "The Attraction of Heavenly Bodies" (Wesleyan New Poets) (1983). He lives in Lansing, Michigan and teaches at Lansing Community College.\n \n Facebook event: https://www.facebook.com/events/309562055909849/\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: RCAH Center for Poetry at MSU\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://poetry.rcah.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Linnea Jimison\n Contact phone: 517-884-1932\n Contact email: cpoetry@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://poetry.rcah.msu.edu/spring-poetry-festival.html\n LOCATION:Snyder C204 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20150401T210000Z UID:1418393784011@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20150401T210000Z DTEND:20150401T220000Z SUMMARY:Info Session: Goldwater, Udall and Hollings Scholarships DESCRIPTION: Hear from NIFS staff on how to apply for the Goldwater, Udall and Hollings Scholarships. \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Ash\n Contact phone: 517-884-7650\n Contact email: nifs@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://nifs.msu.edu/awards\n LOCATION:150 Natural Sciences Building END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20150401T220000Z UID:1417793222042@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Academic DTSTART:20150401T220000Z DTEND:20150401T230000Z SUMMARY:Preparing Poster Presentations DESCRIPTION: A presentation poster requires a very different approach than a research report on the same work. You need to be visually appealing, draw in your reader, and convey your purpose and findings in a concise, direct manner. Dr. Tom Wolff, Associate Dean of the College of Engineering, has judged engineering project posters for many years. He will speak about layout, communication, and people`s perceptions of typeface and graphic design. Workshop participants will review examples of posters - both good and not-so-good - and consider common pitfalls. Discussion of the function of a poster session as a vehicle for sharing your work with visitors and judges will conclude the workshop. Sponsored by the Undergraduate Research Office.

Bowman, Department of History, University of Cincinnati \n \n While the Shoah destroyed 90% of Greek Jewry, including Salonika, the metropolis of Balkan Jewry, the Sephardim of Northern Greece and the Romaniots of Southern and Western Greece nonetheless contributed their part in the war against the Axis. Jews fought in the mountains and served in numerous facets of the Greek Resistance. In the summer of 1944 they were a central factor in the Birkenau uprising of the Sonderkommando and also participated in the Warsaw uprising that lasted through the autumn. Bowman will also discuss the origin of the phrase "[Not] as sheep to slaughter" and its WWII ramifications.

The play reflects what is now almost forty years of conversation between the playwright and a small group of Holocaust survivors. REMNANTS is not testimony but rather recreates conversational moments in which survivors struck on an image or anecdote that "nailed" what they were attempting to convey, not only about the destruction but also about living after. The action is in the retelling itself: survivors' finding such images, their strategic deployment, and the particular relationship that each survivor works to establish with the audience. The recreation and selection of these moments depended on the author's decades of writing and teaching about the Holocaust as scholar as well as playwright.\n \n \n Author Bio\n Henry Greenspan is a psychologist and playwright at the University of Michigan who has been interviewing, teaching, and writing about Holocaust survivors since the 1970s. Rather than one-time "testimonies," Greenspan's approach has been to meet with survivors in sustained conversation: over months, years, and, in a few cases, decades. That approach is reflected in his On Listening to Holocaust Survivors: Beyond Testimony, now in its second and expanded edition, and Reflections: Auschwitz, Memory, and a Life Recreated, co-authored with Agi Rubin, a survivor with whom Greenspan had collaborated since 1980. He is the author of numerous articles on survivors' retelling, including the chapter on survivors' accounts for the Oxford Handbook of Holocaust Studies. In 2011, he co-led the annual Hess Seminar for Professors of Holocaust Courses at the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington. In 2012, he was the Fulbright Visiting Research Chair at the Centre for Oral History and Digital Storytelling at Concordia University in Montreal. He is a member of the Dramatists Guild.\n \n Response to REMNANTS\n "I read a lot of plays. I don't know another one like REMNANTS. It is exactly what it should be. It is exactly right."\n Ellen Schiff, editor, Classic Plays from the American Jewish Repertoire\n \n "There are no elaborate sets, no orchestral movements to stir the soul. But to those who watch it, REMNANTS is as memorable and moving as other major Holocaust works....The work is renowned."\n The Detroit Jewish News\n \n "An incredibly moving work, stark and haunting-an example of Public Radio at its best."\n Michigan Public Broadcasting \n \n "Each monologue encompasses the Holocaust's unspeakable, inexplicable horror within what amounts, in most instances, to a simple anecdote....Anything more would be redundant."\n The Philadelphia Inquirer\n \n "This is Holocaust theatre at its best-a work that carries authenticity in every one of its taut, spare words.\n Alvin Rosenfeld, Chair, Academic Committee, United States Holocaust Memorial Museum\n \n "Of the countless attempts to represent the Holocaust, REMNANTS stands out as a uniquely succinct and piercing glimpse into the immeasurable horror of genocide. This play has more to tell us than many learned volumes."\n Omer Bartov, Birkelund Distinguished Professor of History, Brown University\n \n "An understated, concentrated, starkly dramatic play. REMNANTS avoids the dogmatic and the sentimental and leaves interpretation up to the cast and response up to the audience."\n Lawrence Langer, Professor Emeritus, Simmons College\n \n "REMNANTS succeeds in ways I had thought out of the reach of any kind of dramatization, and it does so with great integrity as well as passion."\n Michael Andre Bernstein, Professor of Comparative Literature, U. of California, Berkeley\n \n "REMNANTS combines history and scholarship, art and drama, to inform our understanding of the Holocaust in ways that are as moving and poignant as they are challenging and surprising. Penetrating, gripping, masterful--those are only a few of the words that this distinctive work deserves."\n John K.

Her poems have appeared in numerous anthologies and journals, including Marlboro Review, Michigan Quarterly Review, Florida Review, Borderlands, Artful Dodge, The MacGuffin and Nimrod. Her essays have been published in Review Revue, An Emily Dickinson Encyclopedia, Language Arts Journal of Michigan and anthologies from the Teachers & Writers Collaborative. She was a finalist for the 2009 Pablo Neruda Prize from Nimrod Press for "Out of the Labyrinth" and other poems. She has received many recognitions for her teaching, including Creative Writing Educator of the Year from the Michigan Youth Arts Festival (2008), a Humanities Award from Wayne County Arts, History and Humanities Council (2008), and 2007 Detroit Bookwoman of the Year from the Women's National Book Association. She is the recipient of the 2010 Pablo Neruda Poetry Prize from Nimrod International for her poem "Chambered Nautilus, with Tinnitus and Linden."

In the late 1970s, Grease contributed to a larger cultural endeavor, as Susan Jefferds has put it, to "remasculinize" America-in this case, particularly for audiences, who felt threatened by the rise of disco and its associations with alternative masculinities. This film responds to what amounted to a moral panic about the death of rock music, because its alleged death heralded the decline of hegemonic white, middle-class, heterosexual masculinity.\n Cosponsored by Music in American Life.\n \n http://music.msu.edu/faculty/profile/marcie\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lib.msu.edu\n Contact name: Mary Black\n Contact email: blackma@mail.lib.msu.edu\n LOCATION:North Conference Room (W449), MSU Main Library END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20150415T230000Z UID:1419885900564@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20150415T230000Z DTEND:20150416T035900Z SUMMARY:CANCELLED DESCRIPTION: Due to illness, the "Anti-Semitism in the 21st Century: An Illusion?

Recent scholarship has focused on their testimony as an autobiographical and individualistic struggle to narrate traumatic experience in the face of a postwar silencing. In her lecture, Dr. Hegburg will examine an alternate history recorded in the contemporaneous accounts of Gypsiologists-folklorists, philologists, and ethnographers of Roma-as they witnessed the decimation of the communities they studied.

Factors contributing to highly concentrated national search markets have been vigorously debated. In this talk I present findings from research projects with two sets of collaborators. Results from an econometric study of Yahoo's local search service with W. Wayne Fu and Carol Ting suggest that positive two-way feedback between the number of consumer searchers using a search engine and the number of advertisers purchasing paid placements on its search results page is of sufficient magnitude that an initial advantage for one search service in either paid ads or consumer traffic could be amplified over time to become a nearly insurmountable barrier to competitors trying to displace it. The second study with Adam Candeub suggests that strategic selection of other internet services to bundle with a search service can contribute to substantial lock-in of a search service's customers. The implications of both studies for policy design are also discussed.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Valeta Wensloff\n Contact email: tisminfo@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://quello.msu.edu/event/dominating-and-leveraging-domination-in-search-markets-why-how-and-how-t\n LOCATION:Room 145, Communication Arts & Sciences END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20150420T200000Z UID:1428940284858@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20150420T200000Z DTEND:20150420T213000Z SUMMARY:Dominating and Leveraging Domination in Search Markets: A Talk By Steve Wildman DESCRIPTION: With rare exceptions, national markets for Internet search services are dominated by a single company, in most cases Google.

At issue was the meaning of the mosque within the contexts of local, regional, national and global history, religion and politics. Constructed at the summit of the Albayzín hill, the new mosque faces the Alhambra, the palatial city built by the last Muslim dynasty between 1232-1492, and today the most-visited monument in Spain. The new mosque became the focal point of entangled gazes, all embedded in pre-existing historical, political and cultural narratives centering on the Alhambra, which were mobilized, accommodated, or contested by the building's architectural design.\n Olga Bush is a scholar of Islamic art and architecture. She has taught at Vassar and SUNY-New Paltz, held fellowships at the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Kunsthistorisches Institut in Florence. Dr. Bush recently co-edited a volume of essays entitled Gazing Otherwise: Modalities of Seeing in and beyond the Lands of Islam (Brill, in press, 2015).\n In collaboration with: MSU Muslim Studies Program; James Madison College; Department of Art, Art History, and Design; Arab Cultural Society; Arabic Flagship Program.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lib.msu.edu\n Contact name: Deb Margolis\n Contact email: deborahm@msu.edu\n LOCATION:North Conference Room (W449), MSU Main Library END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20150421T233000Z UID:1418074939500@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

Forché is perhaps best-known for coining the term "poetry of witness." In her ground-breaking anthology, Against Forgetting: Twentieth-Century Poetry of Witness (1993), Forché presented poets who had written under extreme conditions, including war, exile, and imprisonment. Forché's first poetry collection, Gathering The Tribes, won the Yale Series of Younger Poets Award from the Yale University Press. Her second book, The Country Between Us, received the Poetry Society of America's Alice Fay di Castagnola Award, and was also the Lamont Selection of the Academy of American Poets. Her translation of Alegria's work, Flowers From The Volcano, was published in 1983, and that same year, Writers and Readers Cooperative published El Salvador: Work of Thirty Photographers, for which she wrote the text. In 1991, her translations of The Selected Poetry of Robert Desnos, with William Kulik, was published. Her articles and reviews have appeared in The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Nation, Esquire, Mother Jones, and others. Forché has held three fellowships from The National Endowment for the Arts, and in 1992 received a Lannan Foundation Literary Fellowship. Carolyn Forché, poet, editor, translator, and activist, teaches in the M.F.A. Program in Poetry at George Mason University in Virginia, and lives in Maryland with her husband, Harry Mattison and their son, Sean-Christophe. Born in Detroit, she graduated with a B.A. in 1972 from Justin Morrill College, a residential college at MSU devoted to the liberal arts.\n \n Cosponsored by the RCAH Center for Poetry\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lib.msu.edu\n Contact name: Holly Flynn\n Contact phone: 517-884-0901\n Contact email: flynnhol@msu.edu\n LOCATION:Main Library North Conference Room, W449 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20150423T210000Z UID:1421087188840@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20150423T210000Z DTEND:20150423T220000Z SUMMARY:Info Session: Truman Scholarship, Carnegie Jr. Fellows, Presidential Fellows Program DESCRIPTION: Join NIFS staff and learn about how to apply for prestigious scholarships to attend graduate school or complete an internship/research opportunity.

When simple physics questions are posed to students, not only does this result in interesting patterns of answers, but answering patterns also vary over a wide range of timescales. Such patterns provide important insight into the nature of student learning and understanding as well as the effects of instruction. In this talk, I will discuss introductory physics student performance on two time scales. First, how do student responses evolve over the term of a physics course? By randomly sampling different students throughout the term, we have found clear patterns of rapid learning, forgetting, and interference between related topics. Furthermore, these changes have been found to correspond only to relevant homework assignments rather than relevant lectures or midterms. Second, what can be learned from measuring student response times? On the scale of hundreds to thousands of milliseconds, there are clear patterns of response times that coincide with response choices. For example, on simple physics multiple choice tasks, students will often choose the response that is most rapidly processed, even at the expense of accuracy. These results suggest that performance on these physics questions is strongly influenced by automatic implicit cognitive processes that are independent of explicit physics knowledge.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: CREATE for STEM\n Contact email: ande1617@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://create4stem.msu.edu/event/seminar-429/3345\n LOCATION:1400 BPS END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20150429T190500Z UID:1417640252344@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Athletics DTSTART:20150429T190500Z DTEND:20150430T035900Z SUMMARY:Baseball DESCRIPTION: vs. Eastern Michigan\n\n Sponsor: MSU Athletics\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://events.msu.edu/athletics/\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.msuspartans.com/sports/m-basebl/sched/msu-m-basebl-sched.html\n LOCATION:East Lansing, MI END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20150429T200000Z UID:1423498772679@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20150429T200000Z DTEND:20150429T210000Z SUMMARY:Food Science & Human Nutrition Spring Seminar Series DESCRIPTION: "Food Safety Modeling and Risk Assessment for Fun and Profit" presented by Dr. Don Schaffner from Rutger's University's Department of Food Science\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Dr. Ryser\n Contact email: ryser@anr.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://http://www.fshn.msu.edu/\n LOCATION:1135 S.

Without cooperation with its neighbors, progress in areas from stream restoration to species repatriation will be modest at best. Dr. Tal reviews over twenty years of "below the radar" environmental cooperation in the region and considers the present peace process and how it might be leveraged to ensure an ecological dividend for the Middle East.

Class activities include singing and chanting, moving to music, playing assorted percussion instruments, and pattern instruction. The goal of the curriculum is to increase children's music aptitude (potential to achieve in music) through engaging and entertaining musical activities, which will lay a foundation for lifelong music.\n \n Early childhood music students start as early as birth. The youngest babies respond to class activities with rapt attention as they soak up the musical sounds. Older children begin to explore with their voices and their bodies. As they get older, many students develop their musical skills so that they can echo tonal and rhythmic patterns accurately, sing in tune, and move exactly with the musical beat.\n \n Children attend early childhood music class with a parent or caregiver. Infant/toddler classes are offered for children 0-3 years, and preschool classes are offered for children 3-5 years. \n\n Price: $168 per semester (10 weeks)\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://cms.msu.edu\n Contact phone: (517) -355 -7661\n Contact email: commusic@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://cms.msu.edu/el/children/early.php?el_child_early\n LOCATION:MSU Community Music School END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20150915T040000Z UID:1424716395812-0198@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

Class activities include singing and chanting, moving to music, playing assorted percussion instruments, and pattern instruction. The goal of the curriculum is to increase children's music aptitude (potential to achieve in music) through engaging and entertaining musical activities, which will lay a foundation for lifelong music.\n \n Early childhood music students start as early as birth. The youngest babies respond to class activities with rapt attention as they soak up the musical sounds. Older children begin to explore with their voices and their bodies. As they get older, many students develop their musical skills so that they can echo tonal and rhythmic patterns accurately, sing in tune, and move exactly with the musical beat.\n \n Children attend early childhood music class with a parent or caregiver. Infant/toddler classes are offered for children 0-3 years, and preschool classes are offered for children 3-5 years. \n\n Price: $168 per semester (10 weeks)\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://cms.msu.edu\n Contact phone: (517) -355 -7661\n Contact email: commusic@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://cms.msu.edu/el/children/early.php?el_child_early\n LOCATION:MSU Community Music School END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20150921T170000Z UID:1441132051824@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Training DTSTART:20150921T170000Z DTEND:20150921T190000Z SUMMARY:Endnote X6 and Endnote Online DESCRIPTION: A basic introduction to EndNote and Endnote Online.

The ability to work and collaborate securely anywhere, anytime, on any device will reshape public service. Greater transparency of activities and budgets within and outside institutions will enable choice architectures to increase effectiveness. We must ensure security and privacy are baked-in at code development level, testing from ground up and automating alerts. Legal code and digital code must work together, enabling more inclusive work across government workers, citizen-led contributions, and public private partnerships. Institutions must encourage and empower positive change agents on the inside to pioneer end-to-end innovation. Institutions must also open their data for greater public interaction, citizen-led remixing, and discussions. All together, these actions will transform Public Service to truly be "We the (Mobile, Data-Enabled, Collaborative) People" working to improve our world.\n \n Biographical Sketch of FCC CIO Dr David Bray:\n Dr. David Bray currently serves as the Chief Information Officer (CIO) for the Federal Communications Commission but began working on computer simulations for the U.S. Department of Energy at age 15, to later design new telemedicine interfaces and space-based forest fire forecasting prototypes for the Department of Defense. In 2000, he joined as IT Chief for the Bioterrorism Preparedness and Response Program at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, leading the program's technology response to 9/11, anthrax in 2001, Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome, and other international emergencies. He later completed a PhD in Information Systems from Emory University and two post-doctoral associateships at MIT and Harvard. In 2009, Dr. Bray volunteered to deploy to Afghanistan to help "think differently" on military and humanitarian issues and in 2010 became a Service Executive advocating for information interoperability, cybersecurity, and protection of civil liberties. In 2012, Dr. Bray became the Executive Director for the bipartisan National Commission for Review of Research and Development Programs of the United States Intelligence Community, later receiving the National Intelligence Exceptional Achievement Medal. He received both the Arthur S. Flemming Award and Roger W. Jones Award for Executive Leadership in 2013, and currently serves as term member of the Council on Foreign Relations and as an Oxford Martin Visiting Fellow. In 2015, David was selected as a recipient of an Eisenhower Award and was named as the most social CIO by Forbes.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Quello Center\n Contact email: quello@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://bit.ly/quello-bray\n LOCATION:Room 191, Communication Arts and Sciences END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20150922T040000Z UID:1424716395812-0205@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

Almost every developed country is an immigrant-receiving society, attracting immigrants primarily from the developing world. Similarly, almost every developed country struggles to deal equitably with native and immigrant minorities. Professor Douglas S. Massey is one of the foremost scholars on the twin sociologies of immigration and racial segregation.

Class activities include singing and chanting, moving to music, playing assorted percussion instruments, and pattern instruction. The goal of the curriculum is to increase children's music aptitude (potential to achieve in music) through engaging and entertaining musical activities, which will lay a foundation for lifelong music.\n \n Early childhood music students start as early as birth. The youngest babies respond to class activities with rapt attention as they soak up the musical sounds. Older children begin to explore with their voices and their bodies. As they get older, many students develop their musical skills so that they can echo tonal and rhythmic patterns accurately, sing in tune, and move exactly with the musical beat.\n \n Children attend early childhood music class with a parent or caregiver. Infant/toddler classes are offered for children 0-3 years, and preschool classes are offered for children 3-5 years. \n\n Price: $168 per semester (10 weeks)\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://cms.msu.edu\n Contact phone: (517) -355 -7661\n Contact email: commusic@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://cms.msu.edu/el/children/early.php?el_child_early\n LOCATION:MSU Community Music School END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20150928T170000Z UID:1441158658374@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:International Events (Study Abroad, ...)

Class activities include singing and chanting, moving to music, playing assorted percussion instruments, and pattern instruction. The goal of the curriculum is to increase children's music aptitude (potential to achieve in music) through engaging and entertaining musical activities, which will lay a foundation for lifelong music.\n \n Early childhood music students start as early as birth. The youngest babies respond to class activities with rapt attention as they soak up the musical sounds. Older children begin to explore with their voices and their bodies. As they get older, many students develop their musical skills so that they can echo tonal and rhythmic patterns accurately, sing in tune, and move exactly with the musical beat.\n \n Children attend early childhood music class with a parent or caregiver. Infant/toddler classes are offered for children 0-3 years, and preschool classes are offered for children 3-5 years. \n\n Price: $168 per semester (10 weeks)\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://cms.msu.edu\n Contact phone: (517) -355 -7661\n Contact email: commusic@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://cms.msu.edu/el/children/early.php?el_child_early\n LOCATION:MSU Community Music School END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20151005T160000Z UID:1444064799682-0001@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

The opening of the Tabor Grand in September 1881 changed the cultural landscape of the city and state. For the inaugural performance, Tabor invited the Emma Abbott Opera Company, and for the next nine years, the boards were trod by the greats of theater and music. Tabor's monument to himself, however, was superseded by a new theater in 1890. And by the end of the decade, having lost his fortune and his opera house, Tabor was dead. The verse which Tabor had chosen to adorn his opera house curtain was prophetic:\n \n So fleet the works of men,\n Back to earth again;\n Ancient and holy things\n Fade like a dream.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lib.msu.edu\n Contact name: Holly Flynn\n Contact phone: 517-884-0901\n Contact email: flynnhol@msu.edu\n LOCATION:Main Library Green Room W444 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20151007T233000Z UID:1441744366389@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

Moreover, Israel's Supreme Court has extremely liberal rules of standing for administrative appeals that can file petitions against governmental agencies for inadequate efforts to protect the environment. As a result, Israel's civil society and individual citizens have frequently taken advantage of this opportunity, challenging polluters and the government in a broad range of legal actions. While public interest legal actions have led to scores of environmental victories, numerous environmental indicators suggest that many other battles have been lost. This talk explores the potential and limitations of using the courts to promote environmental interests and the lessons it can teach environmental activists everywhere.

This event is free to the\n public.\n At the heart of much contemporary debate, both academic and political, is the fear that in advanced\n capitalist societies economic inequality is inexorably increasing--coupled with the fear that such\n equality must pose a grave danger to the economic, moral, political or cultural well-being of society. This\n debate has recently risen to a new level of precision and prominence. Through the conference, we\n would like to explore this issue, with special emphasis on the political issue of economic inequality and\n liberal democracy. We seek to bring together thinkers both within the academy, from various relevant\n disciplines, and representing a range of perspectives.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Project 60/50 & Department of Political Science\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.inclusion.msu.edu/index.html\n Contact name: Kim Neir\n Contact phone: (517) 355-6590\n Contact email: neirkimj@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://lefrakforum.msu.edu/\n LOCATION:Kellogg Center Auditorium END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20151009T040000Z UID:1424716395812-0222@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

The classic symbol of the "melting pot" was created at this time. Horace Kallen, an American Jewish philosopher who coined the term "cultural pluralism," felt a profound need to counter assimilationist trends in American Jewish society, and vigorously defended a racialized view of Jewish culture to promote an inclusive and pluralist social vision. Through an analysis of Kallen's racial ideas and his confrontations in the press, Kaufman will show how early twentieth century race science functioned as a tool for an academic to compete with rabbis for social and cultural authority.

Class activities include singing and chanting, moving to music, playing assorted percussion instruments, and pattern instruction. The goal of the curriculum is to increase children's music aptitude (potential to achieve in music) through engaging and entertaining musical activities, which will lay a foundation for lifelong music.\n \n Early childhood music students start as early as birth. The youngest babies respond to class activities with rapt attention as they soak up the musical sounds. Older children begin to explore with their voices and their bodies. As they get older, many students develop their musical skills so that they can echo tonal and rhythmic patterns accurately, sing in tune, and move exactly with the musical beat.\n \n Children attend early childhood music class with a parent or caregiver. Infant/toddler classes are offered for children 0-3 years, and preschool classes are offered for children 3-5 years. \n\n Price: $168 per semester (10 weeks)\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://cms.msu.edu\n Contact phone: (517) -355 -7661\n Contact email: commusic@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://cms.msu.edu/el/children/early.php?el_child_early\n LOCATION:MSU Community Music School END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20151012T160000Z UID:1444064799682-0006@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

Although times of stress and conflict usually unite nations, Israel is experiencing more internal divides than ever before. As President Rivlin noted in June 2015, "Israel is disintegrating into four tribes." The talk will discuss the challenges Israel has both within and outside, the relations between them, and what we can expect in the coming years.\n \n Brunch is $22 per person in advance and $27 at the door.

A recalcitrant husband can refuse to grant a gett, thereby preventing the wife from marrying another man. In this powerhouse courtroom drama, Viviane is desperately seeking to finalize a divorce by taking her husband to the religious court, but finds herself effectively put on trial by her country's religious marriage laws. 2015 Academy Awards--Best Foreign Language Film Nominee, 2015 Golden Globe Awards nominee; Official Selection Cannes Film Festival 2014--Directors' Fortnight Feature Competition; Winner, 2014 Israeli Film Academy Award for Best Film. \n Discussant: Dr. Noga Morag-Levine, Professor of Law & George Roumell Faculty Scholar, MSU College of Law. \n \n 3:30 pm "Paris on the Water" (2014), directed by Hadas Ayalon \n (Drama, 29 minutes)\n The story of a passionate woman, Batya, formerly a glamorous film star, who is forced to confront her age, her husband, and the reality of her life.

The film explores how Israel, a tiny country established as a haven for Jews from around the world, has no adequate policy, infrastructure, or political will to handle this influx of non-Jewish refugees. In talks with immigration experts and UN officials, as well as leaders of Israeli NGOs, the film explores the different approaches being taken to deal with this new and unexpected wave of migration and suggests solutions to head off a full-fledged humanitarian crisis.\n Discussant: Director Brad Rothschild will introduce his film and lead discussion afterward.

Class activities include singing and chanting, moving to music, playing assorted percussion instruments, and pattern instruction. The goal of the curriculum is to increase children's music aptitude (potential to achieve in music) through engaging and entertaining musical activities, which will lay a foundation for lifelong music.\n \n Early childhood music students start as early as birth. The youngest babies respond to class activities with rapt attention as they soak up the musical sounds. Older children begin to explore with their voices and their bodies. As they get older, many students develop their musical skills so that they can echo tonal and rhythmic patterns accurately, sing in tune, and move exactly with the musical beat.\n \n Children attend early childhood music class with a parent or caregiver. Infant/toddler classes are offered for children 0-3 years, and preschool classes are offered for children 3-5 years. \n\n Price: $168 per semester (10 weeks)\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://cms.msu.edu\n Contact phone: (517) -355 -7661\n Contact email: commusic@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://cms.msu.edu/el/children/early.php?el_child_early\n LOCATION:MSU Community Music School END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20151019T160000Z UID:1444064799682-0011@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

His Reading Notebooks thus enable the study of inputs to his creative process between 1837 and 1860. We located digitized full texts of 670 of his nonfiction readings (390 of which he classified as work-related reading) and applied topic modeling to them. We then used the semantic space of the topic models in a novel way to measure the distances that Darwin traveled between books. These measurements permitted us to investigate the trade-off he made between reading within a given domain and switching to new domains. Our analysis shows that Darwin's behavior shifts from exploitation to exploration on multiple timescales, and that at the longest timescale these shifts correlate with major intellectual epochs of his career. Furthermore, contrasting his reading order with the publication order of the same texts, we find Darwin's consumption of the texts is more exploratory than the culture's production of them.\n \n For more information, please contact Thomas Padilla at tpadilla@msu.edu.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lib.msu.edu\n Contact name: Thomas Padilla\n Contact phone: 517-353-8700\n Contact email: tpadilla@msu.edu\n LOCATION:Main Library, Green Room (W444) END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20151023T160000Z UID:1444064799682-0015@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

Class activities include singing and chanting, moving to music, playing assorted percussion instruments, and pattern instruction. The goal of the curriculum is to increase children's music aptitude (potential to achieve in music) through engaging and entertaining musical activities, which will lay a foundation for lifelong music.\n \n Early childhood music students start as early as birth. The youngest babies respond to class activities with rapt attention as they soak up the musical sounds. Older children begin to explore with their voices and their bodies. As they get older, many students develop their musical skills so that they can echo tonal and rhythmic patterns accurately, sing in tune, and move exactly with the musical beat.\n \n Children attend early childhood music class with a parent or caregiver. Infant/toddler classes are offered for children 0-3 years, and preschool classes are offered for children 3-5 years. \n\n Price: $168 per semester (10 weeks)\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://cms.msu.edu\n Contact phone: (517) -355 -7661\n Contact email: commusic@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://cms.msu.edu/el/children/early.php?el_child_early\n LOCATION:MSU Community Music School END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20151026T233000Z UID:1441745139899@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

Class activities include singing and chanting, moving to music, playing assorted percussion instruments, and pattern instruction. The goal of the curriculum is to increase children's music aptitude (potential to achieve in music) through engaging and entertaining musical activities, which will lay a foundation for lifelong music.\n \n Early childhood music students start as early as birth. The youngest babies respond to class activities with rapt attention as they soak up the musical sounds. Older children begin to explore with their voices and their bodies. As they get older, many students develop their musical skills so that they can echo tonal and rhythmic patterns accurately, sing in tune, and move exactly with the musical beat.\n \n Children attend early childhood music class with a parent or caregiver. Infant/toddler classes are offered for children 0-3 years, and preschool classes are offered for children 3-5 years. \n\n Price: $168 per semester (10 weeks)\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://cms.msu.edu\n Contact phone: (517) -355 -7661\n Contact email: commusic@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://cms.msu.edu/el/children/early.php?el_child_early\n LOCATION:MSU Community Music School END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20151102T190000Z UID:1445446685470@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20151102T190000Z DTEND:20151103T045900Z SUMMARY:The Science of Precision Medicine DESCRIPTION: Vence Bonham, Jr., a senior advisor at the National Human Genome Research Institute of the National Institutes of Health and an MSU alumnus, will discuss the science behind precision medicine and the federal recommendations around a new program called the Precision Medicine Initiative.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Melanie Kauffman\n Contact email: kauffm59@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://vprgs.msu.edu/precisionmedicinedetails\n LOCATION:Kellogg Center Auditorium END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20151103T000000Z UID:1441201209945@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20151103T000000Z DTEND:20151103T045900Z SUMMARY:Partners against Anti-Semitism: North African Jews and Muslims Respond to the Vichy-Nazi Alliance DESCRIPTION: Aomar Boum, Anthropology, University of California, Los Angeles\n \n Professor Aomar Boum will explore topics from his book "Memories of Absence: How Muslims Remember Jews in Morocco" (2013), discussing Muslims and Jewish memories of World War II, the Vichy camps in North Africa, German propaganda, and the present debates in Morocco, Israel, and the United States about Mohammed V's role during the war period.

For more than twelve years, Ambassador Ross played a leading role in shaping US involvement in the Middle East peace process and dealing directly with the parties in negotiations. Ambassador Dennis Ross will discuss what the US should be doing today in the Middle East given the lessons he draws from the past. He wrote about these lessons in his recent book titled "Doomed to Succeed: The US-Israeli Relationship from Truman to Obama" (2015). Ambassador Ross explores the attitudes and approach of every president toward Israel and the Middle East, outlining the key assumptions, the unity or division of the president's advisors, the key events in each administration, and how the overall relationship has evolved. Ross highlights the lessons that should have been learned and were not, and what the implications are for US policy toward Israel and the region today.

Class activities include singing and chanting, moving to music, playing assorted percussion instruments, and pattern instruction. The goal of the curriculum is to increase children's music aptitude (potential to achieve in music) through engaging and entertaining musical activities, which will lay a foundation for lifelong music.\n \n Early childhood music students start as early as birth. The youngest babies respond to class activities with rapt attention as they soak up the musical sounds. Older children begin to explore with their voices and their bodies. As they get older, many students develop their musical skills so that they can echo tonal and rhythmic patterns accurately, sing in tune, and move exactly with the musical beat.\n \n Children attend early childhood music class with a parent or caregiver. Infant/toddler classes are offered for children 0-3 years, and preschool classes are offered for children 3-5 years. \n\n Price: $168 per semester (10 weeks)\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://cms.msu.edu\n Contact phone: (517) -355 -7661\n Contact email: commusic@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://cms.msu.edu/el/children/early.php?el_child_early\n LOCATION:MSU Community Music School END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20151109T171500Z UID:1419351137998@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Public Programs DTSTART:20151109T171500Z DTEND:20151109T183000Z SUMMARY:Our Daily Work/ Our Daily Lives - Brown Bag DESCRIPTION: This week's presentation is titled, "A Finnish Voice for Labor: Aku Päiviö's Poetry and the Immigrant Working-class," presented by Brooke Boulton, English Department, Rainy River Community College.\n \n "Our Daily Work / Our Daily Lives" is a joint project that focuses on the artistic traditions of workers and on workplaces as contexts for the expression of workers culture.

Class activities include singing and chanting, moving to music, playing assorted percussion instruments, and pattern instruction. The goal of the curriculum is to increase children's music aptitude (potential to achieve in music) through engaging and entertaining musical activities, which will lay a foundation for lifelong music.\n \n Early childhood music students start as early as birth. The youngest babies respond to class activities with rapt attention as they soak up the musical sounds. Older children begin to explore with their voices and their bodies. As they get older, many students develop their musical skills so that they can echo tonal and rhythmic patterns accurately, sing in tune, and move exactly with the musical beat.\n \n Children attend early childhood music class with a parent or caregiver. Infant/toddler classes are offered for children 0-3 years, and preschool classes are offered for children 3-5 years. \n\n Price: $168 per semester (10 weeks)\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://cms.msu.edu\n Contact phone: (517) -355 -7661\n Contact email: commusic@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://cms.msu.edu/el/children/early.php?el_child_early\n LOCATION:MSU Community Music School END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20151116T150000Z UID:1444753205143-0002@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20151116T150000Z DTEND:20151117T045900Z SUMMARY:Registration for Sibs & Kids Weekend!

But who were those Jews who tried to re-establish themselves in Greece after the Holocaust? To what extent did they manage to restore their personal, communal, educational, and social institutions? Did they seek punishment of the perpetrators? Was the Greek civil war the reason why the survivors thought about emigration? These questions will form the backbone of Dr. Kralova's talk on postwar Jewish life in Greece.

In contrast to the Orthodox rabbinate, which did allow some study of Mishnah and Tanach for women, Fuchs' findings indicate that Satmar rabbinic authorities grossly minimize Jewish women's accessibility to Torah study, thereby losing the most important tool in their fight against assimilation and secularization: education.

From wiki pages to 360° visual presentations to three dimensional scanning and printing, technological advances are enabling embodied and interactive experiences that encourage new approaches to instructional pedagogy. \n \n As a reflection of this potential pedagogical shift, the 2015 Symposium will include the presentations by both faculty and students. For the student, this presentation is the culmination of the capstone experience course, HA 499 Senior Research and Professional Development, which focuses on the development of skills related to career planning and supplemented by a faculty-mentored research project. For members of the faculty, this event offers an opportunity to showcase the types of student / faculty collaborations that are a frequent aspect of scholarly work in the digital humanities.\n \n In order to raise awareness concerning the many people and places helping to enable such innovations, afternoon activities will involve introductory tours at the facilities that provided the resources presented in the morning sessions.\n \n Presentation Schedule\n \n 1:00 \n Jon Frey, Associate Professor, Art History and Visual Culture // Opening Remarks\n \n 1:15 \n Ethan Watrall, Assistant Professor, Anthropology and Associate Director, MATRIX // The Digital Atlas of Egyptian Archaeology: Building Digital Archaeology in the Classroom\n \n 1:40 \n Sean Davis, Undergraduate HA major // Student Responses to 3D Imaging in the History of Art\n \n 2:00 \n Theresa Winge, Associate Professor, Apparel and Textile Design and Director, Creativity Exploratory //Modeling Madness: Design Thinking, Modeling, and 3D Printing\n \n \n Makerspace Tour\n \n 3:00 \n LEADER Lab // Contact: Brandon Locke\n \n Location: 112 Old Horticulture, 506 E Circle DR, East Lansing\n \n Abrams Planetarium // Contact: Shannon Schmoll\n Location: 755 Science RD, East Lansing\n \n 4:00 \n Make Central // Contact: Erica Ervin\n \n Location: Main Library, 2West, 336 W Circle DR, East Lansing\n \n Creativity Exploratory // Contact: Theresa Winge\n \n Location: Linton, Third Floor, 220 Trowbridge RD, East Lansing\n \n Reception to follow\n \n This event is sponsored by Michigan State University, the Department of Art, Art History, and Design, LEADR Lab for the Education and Advancement in Digital Research, Creativity Exploratory, Abrams Planetarium, MAKE Central MSU Libraries Makerspace, and the Department of Anthropology.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Professor Laura Smith\n Contact email: smit1550@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.art.msu.edu/content/history-art-and-visual-culture-symposium-december-4-2015\n LOCATION:108 KAC, Leader Lab, Abrams Planetarium, Make Central MSU Main Library, Creativity Exploritory END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20151204T190000Z UID:1445447607212@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20151204T190000Z DTEND:20151205T045900Z SUMMARY:One Hundred Years of Statistical Developments in Animal Breeding - Daniel Gianola DESCRIPTION: Please join us for a thought provoking discussion on statistical methodology by Dr. Daniel Gianola, of the University of Wisconsin-Madison.

Israeli society is well aware of these new characteristics, which include the understanding that a clear victory is not possible, that cycles of violence will continue, and that wars do not have clear starting and ending points. Yet Israeli society, while rationally understanding this, still looks for victories, big "wins," and clear "rules." These contradictions between Israeli society's understanding and their wishes lead to ongoing frustration with the leadership, a decrease in the cultural centrality of the Israeli Defense Force, and more.\n \n Co-sponsored by the Asian Studies Center and James Madison College. \n \n\n Price: free and open to the public\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://events.msu.edu/jewishstudies/\n Contact name: Jewish Studies\n Contact phone: (517) 432-3493\n Contact email: jewishst@msu.edu\n LOCATION:James Madison Library, 322 South Case Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160121T000000Z UID:1452885919660@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20160121T000000Z DTEND:20160121T045900Z SUMMARY:Muslim Journeys Book Club: House of Stone DESCRIPTION: House of Stone: A Memoir of Home, Family, and a Lost Middle East by Anthony Shadid. \n Lecture and discussion with Salah Hassan, Associate Professor of English.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lib.msu.edu\n Contact name: Holly Flynn\n Contact phone: 517-884-0901\n Contact email: flynnhol@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.lib.msu.edu/MuslimJourneys/\n LOCATION:MSU Main Library, Green Room (4W) END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160121T050000Z UID:1440015292826-0117@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

Many held that materialist philosophy would, via the slipperiest of slopes, lead its proponents into degenerate, immoral, and irreligious behavior. Materialist authors in this tradition responded to such criticism by developing naturalistic moral theories; typically, these were theories according to which humans are by nature inclined toward some canonical moral virtues, and by nature averse to some moral vices. Materialists who pursued this strategy, like Julien Offray de la Mettrie, had a nice reply to their critics' moralizing: there are purely natural forces causing humans to tend toward virtue and away from vice, so recognizing that humans are merely biological machines will not lead to moral decay. But this argumentative strategy has an interesting flaw. It requires us to draw a line between those passions that nature dictates we act on and those that nature dictates we resist. Yet (as the writings of the Marquis de Sade suggest) philosophical naturalism, drawn to its logical conclusion, makes it difficult to draw such a line in any non-arbitrary way.\n Cosponsored by: Romance and Classical Studies, The Laurence Porter Colloquium Series\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lib.msu.edu\n Contact name: Holly Flynn\n Contact phone: 517-884-0901\n Contact email: flynnhol@msu.edu\n LOCATION:MSU Main Library, Green Room (4W) END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160122T000000Z UID:1439412312938-0019@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Public Programs DTSTART:20160122T000000Z DTEND:20160122T020000Z SUMMARY:New Horizons Band -Jazz DESCRIPTION: The New Horizons Band (NHB) is for adults who want to learn to play a band instrument for the first time or who wish to relearn an instrument.

It will sensitize children to language learning, help them acquire an awareness and appreciation of other cultures, enhance their understanding of the native language, and hopefully motivate them to pursue language study. Our goals are to introduce the children to different facets of the target language and culture, expand their existing knowledge, and increase their abilities in speaking and listening while incorporating some reading and writing in the target language. We emphasize functional language use and cultural awareness. Our small class sizes allow us to work more closely with your children and maximize learning outcomes. Concurrent sections to accommodate different levels are offered for most languages.\n \n Multiple-program/child discounts are available (10%). To qualify, registrations must be on the same transaction. Classes will be cancelled if fewer than 5 students enroll. All classes meet in Wells Hall.\n \n French meets on Tuesdays from 5:30-6:30 pm, starting January 24 and running for 10 weeks through April 18, 2017. There will be no class meetings during MSU's Spring Break (March 6-10) and area schools' Spring Breaks (March 27 - April 7).\n\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: CeLTA Language School\n Contact phone: (517) 355-7587\n Contact email: cls@celta.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://camps.cal.msu.edu/groups/view/CLS\n LOCATION:B135 Wells Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160125T000000Z UID:1452620404723-0003@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20160125T000000Z DTEND:20160125T045900Z SUMMARY:Campus Center Cinemas - Trumbo DESCRIPTION: \n\n Price: FREE for undergraduate students living in MSU residence halls, $2 for all others\n Sponsor: University Activities Board (UAB) and the Residence Halls Assoc.\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.uabevents.com\n Contact name: University Activities Board\n Contact phone: 355-3354\n Contact email: uab@rhs.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://uabevents.com\n LOCATION:B Wing, Wells Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160125T003000Z UID:1452620500556-0003@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20160125T003000Z DTEND:20160125T045900Z SUMMARY:Campus Center Cinemas - Paranormal Activity: The Ghost Dimension DESCRIPTION: \n\n Price: FREE for undergraduate students living in MSU residence halls, $2 for all others\n Sponsor: University Activities Board (UAB) and the Residence Halls Assoc.\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.uabevents.com\n Contact name: University Activities Board\n Contact phone: 355-3354\n Contact email: uab@rhs.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://uabevents.com\n LOCATION:B Wing, Wells Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160125T021500Z UID:1452620445795-0003@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20160125T021500Z DTEND:20160125T045900Z SUMMARY:Campus Center Cinemas - Trumbo DESCRIPTION: \n\n Price: FREE for undergraduate students living in MSU residence halls, $2 for all others\n Sponsor: University Activities Board (UAB) and the Residence Halls Assoc.\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.uabevents.com\n Contact name: University Activities Board\n Contact phone: 355-3354\n Contact email: uab@rhs.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://uabevents.com\n LOCATION:B Wing, Wells Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160125T022000Z UID:1452620543698-0003@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20160125T022000Z DTEND:20160125T045900Z SUMMARY:Campus Center Cinemas - Paranormal Activity: The Ghost Dimension DESCRIPTION: \n\n Price: FREE for undergraduate students living in MSU residence halls, $2 for all others\n Sponsor: University Activities Board (UAB) and the Residence Halls Assoc.\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.uabevents.com\n Contact name: University Activities Board\n Contact phone: 355-3354\n Contact email: uab@rhs.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://uabevents.com\n LOCATION:B Wing, Wells Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160125T050000Z UID:1440015292826-0121@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

This psalm set to song has been a top single more than once in the twentieth century. Stowe locates Psalm 137's use in the American Revolution and the Civil Rights Movement, and internationally by anti-colonial Jamaican Rastafari and immigrants from Ireland, Korea, and Cuba. Studying musical references ranging from the Melodians' Rivers of Babylon to the score of the Kazakh film Tulpan, Stowe also explores the presence and absence in modern culture of the often-ignored final words: "Happy shall he be, that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against the stones." Based on numerous interviews with musicians, theologians, and writers, Stowe reconstructs the rich and varied history of this widely used, yet mysterious, Hebrew text. \n \n Co-sponsored by the Department of English, Department of Religious Studies, and James Madison College.\n \n\n Price: free and open to the public\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://events.msu.edu/jewishstudies/\n Contact name: Jewish Studies\n Contact phone: (517) 432-3493\n Contact email: jewishst@msu.edu\n LOCATION:Wells Hall B-342 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160129T170000Z UID:1452625513846@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20160129T170000Z DTEND:20160129T180000Z SUMMARY:"Your Career in Nonprofits" DESCRIPTION: Featuring a TED-style talk on your future career in Nonprofits with a BA from Religious Studies at MSU\n by \n Dr. Robert Ashcraft\n Director, Arizona State University Lodestar Center for Philanthropy and Innovation\n \n Come join us for food and conversation about careers in Nonprofits!\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Ashley Housler\n Contact email: housler@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.religiousstudies.msu.edu\n LOCATION:B342 Wells Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160129T170000Z UID:1452869102350-0010@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

Isakson argues that many of the themes in this "new" anti-Semitism are recycled elements of older tropes, but others deal largely with a hatred of Israel that crosses the line of legitimate criticism into demonization. The US Department of State's "Working Definition of Anti-Semitism," if adopted by universities, would help protect Jewish students while protecting freedom of speech. In the meantime, universities like Michigan State can incorporate education about anti-Semitism into their freshman orientation or mandatory diversity programming. Anti-Semitism needs to be appropriately addressed on campus in order to maintain an open and safe environment for everyone.\n \n Co-sponsored by James Madison College.\n \n\n Price: free and open to the public\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://events.msu.edu/jewishstudies/\n Contact name: Jewish Studies\n Contact phone: (517) 432-3493\n Contact email: jewishst@msu.edu\n LOCATION:Wells Hall C-742 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160227T000000Z UID:1441910285288@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

Richard Zinman. Presenting "Democracy, Nobility, and Philosophy: Nietzsche and the 'Pathos of Distance'" \n Free and open to the public.\n Professor Zinman's lecture will take its bearings from the following observations: Our time is the age in which modern democracy has triumphed. In the contemporary West almost everyone agrees that democracy is the only just regime and, indeed, is the best regime simply. But our time is also the one in which Nietzsche has triumphed. Most would agree that he is the most influential thinker of our time. Yet Nietzsche is the most profound, passionate, and immoderate critic of modern democracy. He emphatically denies that modern democracy is a just regime and has contempt for the notion that it is the best regime. In the midst of the triumph of democracy, he is a radical partisan of aristocracy. Nietzsche was not the first aristocrat thinker who lived in an age in which democracy had triumphed. Both Aristotle and Tocqueville shared that fate. Yet, unlike Nietzsche, Aristotle and Tocqueville offered only moderate critiques of democracy and seemed to make their peace with the reigning regime. Each, in his way, could even be said to be a friend of democracy. Why was Nietzsche, in contrast, such an immoderate critic of democracy? Is his immoderate partisanship defensible? More important, is Nietzsche correct about modern democracy's defects? Can contemporary partisans of democracy offer a persuasive response to Nietzsche's critique?\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Kim Allan\n Contact phone: 5173533381\n Contact email: allank@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.eventbrite.com/e/jack-paynter-lecture-with-professor-emeritus-richard-zinman-ticket\n LOCATION:Case Hall, Club Spartan END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160302T000000Z UID:1452618948475-0008@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20160302T000000Z DTEND:20160302T045900Z SUMMARY:UAB Weekly meeting DESCRIPTION: Come to the weekly UAB Meeting and join in on the fun!

They hurled him into a coach waiting nearby and drove him, naked, to the insane asylum at Charenton. This prisoner was the Marquis de Sade. Ten days later, the people of Paris would storm the Bastille in one of the most memorable days in modern history, thus beginning, in effect, the French Revolution. \n This talk examines the relationship between the Marquis de Sade and the French Revolution. As a nobleman, he was suspect. As the author of scandalous works, he had a good chance of ending up on the guillotine. Yet as a committed troublemaker, he must have loved the glimpse of anarchy that the Revolution afforded to contemporaries. In this talk, we will follow the Marquis' multiple brushes with the Revolution. We will examine what he thought about its politics. And we will look for the traces of its dramas and disappointments in his writings.\n Cosponsored by: Romance and Classical Studies, The Laurence Porter Colloquium Series\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lib.msu.edu\n Contact name: Holly Flynn\n Contact phone: 517-884-0901\n Contact email: flynnhol@msu.edu\n LOCATION:MSU Main Library Green Room (W444) END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160303T230000Z UID:1456974080426@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Public Programs DTSTART:20160303T230000Z DTEND:20160304T003000Z SUMMARY:Visiting Designer: Tiff Devine DESCRIPTION: The Apparel & Textile Design program welcomes Tiff Devine to enlighten the Michigan State University community about what its like as a Midwesterner living in New York as CAD Designer.

Later, as a much-published author, Lev's life took a completely unexpected turn when a German publisher bought three of his books for translation, but with the proviso that Lev go on tour there. Could Lev do it? Would he do it? Now, Lev has been to Germany five times, has German friends, speaks German, and would happily return. His 19th book, "My Germany," is a memoir, travelogue, and part mystery that explores ways in which Germany turned from fantasy to reality in Lev's life and career. Lev will talk about the book's strange genesis, the surprises it brought him as a writer and a Jew, and the sometimes shocking things he learned about his Holocaust survivor parents along the way. \n \n Co-sponsored by the Department of English, James Madison College, and the Center for European, Russian, and Eurasian Studies.\n \n\n Price: free and open to the public\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://events.msu.edu/jewishstudies/\n Contact name: Jewish Studies\n Contact phone: (517) 432-3493\n Contact email: jewishst@msu.edu\n LOCATION:Wells Hall B-342 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160304T150000Z UID:1454528391396@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Training DTSTART:20160304T150000Z DTEND:20160304T170000Z SUMMARY:Endnote X7 and Endnote Online DESCRIPTION: A basic introduction to EndNote and Endnote Online.

Frank DESCRIPTION: Matthew Gavin Frank was born and raised in Chicago. Bitten by the food, wine, and travel bug, he left home at age seventeen, embracing the vagabond lifestyle that often lent itself to work in the restaurant industry. He returned to academia and received his MFA in Poetry and Creative Nonfiction from Arizona State University. He taught creative writing to undergraduates in Phoenix, Arizona, and poetry to soldiers and their families near Fort Drum in upstate New York on the Canadian border. \n \n Frank's new book, The Mad Feast: An Ecstatic Tour Through America's Food, is forthcoming November 2015 from W.W. Norton: Liveright. Frank is also the author of Preparing the Ghost: An Essay Concerning the Giant Squid and Its First Photographer (W.W. Norton: Liveright), Barolo (The University of Nebraska Press), a food memoir based on his illegal work in the Italian wine industry, and Pot Farm (The University of Nebraska Press / Bison Books), about his time working on a medical marijuana farm in Northern California. His poetry collection, The Morrow Plots, is available from Black Lawrence Press/Dzanc Books. His poetry book, Sagittarius Agitprop is available from Black Lawrence Press/Dzanc Books. His poetry book, Warranty in Zulu is available from Barrow Street Press. He is also the author of the chapbooks Four Hours to Mpumalanga (Pudding House Publications), a poetry sequence about his initial visit to his wife's homeland in rural South Africa, and Aardvark (West Town Press), a poetry sequence that strangely engages the alphabet.\n \n Frank is the recipient of an Illinois Arts Council Fellowship, an Artist's Grant to the Vermont Studio Center, the Sonoran Prize for Poetry, and numerous grants from the Virginia G. Piper Center for the Creative Arts. Presently, he teaches Creative Writing at Grand Valley State University in Michigan.\n \n (Description Courtesy of matthewgfrank.com)\n \n Cosponsored by: English Department, RCAH Center for Poetry\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lib.msu.edu\n Contact name: Holly Flynn\n Contact phone: 517-884-0901\n Contact email: flynnhol@msu.edu\n LOCATION:MSU Main Library Green Room (W444) END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160324T003000Z UID:1441912023686@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

This proto-cybernetics is integral not only to Sade's social critique but to the tensions between nature and reason in his work, not to mention the almost machinic vision of sexuality depicted in his complexly orchestrated orgies. Where Sade privileges reciprocal or at least reversible and dynamic relations, where he appeals to multiple connections and impersonal sociality, he demarcates the modern world of cybernetic networks and human/machine hybrids. Sade's 18th-century visions of control and communication resonate in the 20th century readings of his work by Marcel Hénaff, Roland Barthes, Leo Bersani, and Kathy Acker. My talk will explore how these thinkers' attention to the questions of bodies and pleasures lays out for us a view of cybernetic Sade.\n \n Cosponsored by: Romance and Classical Studies, The Laurence Porter Colloquium Series\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lib.msu.edu\n Contact name: Holly Flynn\n Contact phone: 517-884-0901\n Contact email: flynnhol@msu.edu\n LOCATION:MSU Main Library Green Room (W444) END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160331T221500Z UID:1455565186735@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20160331T221500Z DTEND:20160401T001500Z SUMMARY:Peru Date-A-Doc Auction DESCRIPTION: Annual Peru Date-A-Doc Auction to raise funds for Peru Mission Trip.\n\n Price: none\n Sponsor: student\n Contact name: Colleen Reidy\n Contact phone: 2483909661\n Contact email: ccreidy93@gmail.com\n LOCATION:EL E105, DMC G029, MUC UC3 209 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160401T003000Z UID:1430331935930@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

These faculty are increasing in numbers, resulting in debates including the necessity of such faculty amid funding cutbacks, unionization of faculty labor, and improving work conditions (i.e., pay, benefits, job stability, isolation). This symposium of multiple panels will focus on contingent faculty in higher education from various perspectives including policy, advocacy, research, and practice. Presenters will shed light on the wide range of issues raised in this debate and illuminate available policy levers of opportunity to address issues of equity that are central to the future of contingent faculty.\n \n Confirmed Speakers:\n Dr. Gary Rhoades, University of Arizona\n Maria C.

He immediately impressed everyone with his craftsmanship in many mediums, and over the next 6 years under his guidance Roycroft products featured his avant-garde designs. Dissatisfied with what he regarded as this derivative style, however, he sought an area of research in which he could make an original and valued contribution; he found it in the history of papermaking. From 1911 until his death in 1966, Hunter researched and traveled around the world several times to gather information and materials. To disseminate this information to a wider audience, Hunter handprinted books, most under his imprint Mountain House Press, located in Chillicothe, Ohio. These extraordinary books, as well as his classic reference, Papermaking: The History and Technique of an Ancient Craft and his papermaking collection (now at the Renewal Bioproducts Institute at Georgia Tech) form the extraordinary legacy that Dard Hunter left to us.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lib.msu.edu\n Contact name: Holly Flynn\n Contact phone: 517-884-0901\n Contact email: flynnhol@msu.edu\n LOCATION:MSU Main Library Green Room (W444) END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160422T220000Z UID:1460348876213@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

Fibrosis is a complex multifactorial process but many therapeutic molecules only block a single pathway, for example inflammation or angiogenesis. The myocardin-related transcription factor/serum response factor (MRTF/SRF) pathway is involved in multiple pathways in the complex fibrosis process and thus represents a promising therapeutic target to prevent ocular fibrosis.\n Our results show that inhibiting the MRTF/SRF pathway significantly decreases collagen matrix contraction, fibroblast dynamic index, and matrix remodelling in human conjunctival fibroblasts. We have also developed receptor-targeted liposome-peptide-siRNA nanoparticles as an efficient delivery system for MRTF silencing in conjunctival fibrosis. Furthermore, local delivery of novel inhibitors of MRTF/SRF-regulated gene transcription prevents scar tissue formation and significantly prolongs the long-term success of surgery in a validated rabbit model of glaucoma filtration surgery. As drug delivery represents one of the major hurdles in translational anti-fibrosis research, we are currently developing different drug delivery techniques for sustained release formulations in the eye. In addition, we are also studying potential novel genetic biomarkers to develop a more personalized and stratified approach in anti-fibrotic ocular therapeutics.\n \n \n\n Price: Free\n Sponsor: Dept of Pharmacology & Toxicology\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://phmtox.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Student Office\n Contact phone: (517) 884-0409\n Contact email: phm@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://phmtox.msu.edu/education/Seminars-PhmTox.htm\n LOCATION:B448 Life Sciences (behind Bott Nursing Building) END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160429T164000Z UID:1453388466952@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20160429T164000Z DTEND:20160430T035900Z SUMMARY:Analytical Seminar DESCRIPTION: Professor Philip Britz Mckibbin\n McMaster University\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Chemistry\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.chemistry.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Brenda Franklin\n Contact phone: (517) 355-9715 \n Contact email: franklin@chemistry.msu.edu\n LOCATION:Chemistry END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160429T220000Z UID:1460349328893@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20160429T220000Z DTEND:20160430T000000Z SUMMARY:The Art of: Floral Design DESCRIPTION: Discover the art of floral design with Lisa Waud, owner of pot & box and creator of Detroit's "Flower House!"

J. Beal Botanical Garden to look at the many early spring plants, some of which qualify as weeds for most of us, that make delicious early spring vegetables for the table. Most yards and virtually all weed patches offer something interesting to eat (if they haven't been poisoned with 'weed killers'). We will examine their nutritional contributions and examine poisonous look-a-likes. We will meet at the pond by the shed at the southeast corner of the Botanical Garden. \n In case of inclement weather, we will meet in the Main Library Reference Instruction Room.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lib.msu.edu\n Contact name: Holly Flynn\n Contact phone: 517-884-0901\n Contact email: flynnhol@msu.edu\n LOCATION:Beal Botanical Gardens END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160513T040000Z UID:1440531736898@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Academic DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20160513 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20160514 SUMMARY:Commencement - College of Law DESCRIPTION: Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://events.msu.edu/registrar/\n END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160513T040000Z UID:1450730731399-0131@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

This three-week program will take place at NSCL/FRIB in East Lansing, MI and is supported by the ICNT and JINA-CEE.\n \n We will discuss many topics related to the r-process with the following general schedule:\n \n •Week one (May 30-June 3, 2016): r-process abundances, observations, abundance patterns, r-process sites, kinds and compositions of ejecta, multiple r-processes, chemical evolution constraints, kilonova, open questions.\n \n •Week two (June 6-10): Intensive Workshop on r-process experiments, experimental capabilities + related theory such as mass models, reaction rate calculations, impact of experiment.\n \n •Week three (June 13-17): astrophysical simulations of supernova winds and neutron star mergers, reaction networks, sensitivity studies.\n \n One goal of this program is to identify promising r-process nuclear experiments at FRIB and other laboratories and discuss the considerable astrophysics, astronomy, and nuclear theory infrastructure necessary to make full use of the experimental results and determine their possible impact. Weeks one and three will have a limited number of talks each morning with plenty of time in the afternoon for both informal and more formal discussion. Week two will have more talks including many on r-process related nuclear experiments. Please note that the above schedule is a general guide. If you cannot make a particular week or weeks, please participate when you can.\n \n Thank you very much and best regards,\n \n Charles Horowitz (Indiana)\n Brian Metzger (Columbia)\n Gail McLaughlin (NCSU)\n Hendrik Schatz (MSU)\n Rebecca Surman (Notre Dame)\n\n Price: Registration - see event website\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Elizabeth Deliyski\n Contact phone: 517-908-7429\n Contact email: deliyski@frib.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://https://indico.fnal.gov/internalPage.py?pageId=3&confId=11273\n LOCATION:Facility for Rare Isotope Beams END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160601T040000Z UID:1450730731399-0150@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

Ecoacoustics operates in all types of terrestrial and aquatic (freshwater and marine) ecosystems extending the scope of acoustics and bioacoustics.\n \n Ecoacoustics recognizes that sounds can be both the subject and tools of ecological research. As the subject, sounds are investigated in order to understand their evolution, functions and properties under environmental pressures. As tools, sounds are used to study and monitor animal diversity, abundance, behaviour, dynamics and distribution, and their relationship with ecosystems and the environment.\n Who are the local organizers of the Ecoacoustics Congress 2016\n \n The Organizing Committee for Ecoacoustics Congress 2016 are:\n Stuart Gage (gages@msu.edu)(Michigan State University); Anne Axel (axel@marshall.edu)(Marshall University); Jiaguo Qi (qi@msu.edu) (Michigan State University). \n\n Price: Participants: $200/ Students $110\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Megghan Honke Seidel\n Contact phone: 989-666-3773\n Contact email: honkemeg@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://events.anr.msu.edu/ecoacousticscongress/\n LOCATION:Kellogg Hotel and Conference Center END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160605T040000Z UID:1450730731399-0154@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

The curricula are theme-based and include topics of interest and relevance to children. Different activity types are alternated with games and hands-on as well as visually activated learning. In our lessons, we try to connect the new knowledge with the community by visiting campus locations such as the dairy store and the botanical gardens. All camps take place on MSU's campus.\n \n Japanese is open to children ages 6-13. No previous knowledge is required and children of higher levels can be accommodated.\n \n Japanese camp runs Monday-Friday, June 27 - July 1, 2016 from 8:30 am - 4 pm, sack lunch provided by parents. A morning-only option is also available from 8:30am-noon. \n \n Before and after care available upon request for an additional charge. Multiple-program/child discounts are available (10%).

A classical result of Hasse states that the norm principle holds for finite cyclic extensions of global fields, in other words local norms are global norms. We investigate the norm principle for finite dimensional commutative 'etale algebras over global fields; since such an algebra is a product of separable extensions, this is often called the multinorm principle. Under the assumption that the 'etale algebra contains a cyclic factor, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for the Hasse principle to hold.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Mathematics\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.math.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Department of Mathematics\n Contact phone: (517) 353-0844\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.math.msu.edu/Seminars/CalendarView.aspx?month-of=September2016\n LOCATION:C304 Wells Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160906T190000Z UID:1471459383682@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20160906T190000Z DTEND:20160906T195000Z SUMMARY:Math Seminar Series DESCRIPTION: Local-global principles over function fields\n \n Speaker: Raman Parimala, Emory University\n In this talk, we shall describe some local-global principles for rational points on homogeneous spaces under connected linear algebraic groups over function fields of p-adic curves; the story over number fields goes back to the classical theorem of Hasse-Minkowski for quadrics.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Mathematics\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.math.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Department of Mathematics\n Contact phone: (517) 353-0844\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.math.msu.edu/Seminars/CalendarView.aspx?month-of=September2016\n LOCATION:C304 Wells Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160906T230000Z UID:1470248295178-0001@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20160906T230000Z DTEND:20160907T000000Z SUMMARY:UAB Weekly meeting DESCRIPTION: Come to the weekly UAB Meeting and join in on the fun!

The asymmetric part of EoS, which is originated by the isospin asymmetry, has not been well constrained yet above the saturation density, contrary to the symmetric part of EoS. Transport model calculations predict that pions generated by the heavy-ion collisions are sensitive probe to constrain the symmetry energy above the saturation density. The SÏ€RIT Time Projection Chamber and ancillary trigger detectors were specifically designed and constructed to constraint the symmetry energy at above the saturation density using the radioactive isotope beams produced by the Radioactive Isotope Beam Factory(RIBF) at RIKEN by measuring pions as well as light ions. In this talk, I’ll describe the SÏ€RIT TPC and the first series of the SÏ€RIT experiment at RIKEN in Spring 2016 which collected data in 4 collision systems, 132Sn+124Sn, 112Sn+124Sn, 124Sn+112Sn, and 108Sn+112Sn with beam energy of 270 AMeV.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.nscl.msu.edu/\n Contact name: National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory\n Contact phone: 517-355-9671\n Contact email: nscl.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.nscl.msu.edu/apps/seminars.php\n LOCATION:National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory Seminar Room END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160907T040000Z UID:1466710532662-0076@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

These containers have a wide variety of cargo packed in a wide variety of configurations. As the Homeland Security website states The Department of Homeland Security's (DHS) U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) is charged with the critical task of securing the country from terrorists and their weapons while facilitating legitimate trade and travel, including the monitoring of what's in thousands of sea cargo containers as they pass through CBP screening. These containers must be inspected quickly and accurately, and without the business at each port grinding to a halt when they do so. This talk will primarily focus on some of the technologies used to screen these containers for illicit materials, including a discussion of where applied nuclear physics is extremely important. This work has been supported by the US Department of Homeland Security, Domestic Nuclear Detection Office, under competitively awarded contract/IAA HSHQDC-12-X-00341.

This hot, extended young neutron star cools and contracts over a period of tens of seconds emitting a copious number of neutrinos. The spectrum and time dependence of this neutrino emission encodes information about the properties of dense matter, sets the initial conditions for neutrino oscillations, and can impact nucleosynthesis in the supernova. I will present models of protoneutron star cooling that follow and discuss prospects for detection of these neutrinos from a nearby supernova. Then, I will talk about how microphysics, including neutrino opacities and the nuclear equation of state, impacts protoneutron star cooling and nucleosynthesis in these environments.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.nscl.msu.edu/\n Contact name: National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory\n Contact phone: 517-355-9671\n Contact email: nscl.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.nscl.msu.edu/apps/seminars.php\n LOCATION:Biomedical & Physical Sciences Bldg., Rm. 1400 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160912T170000Z UID:1471457563012@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20160912T170000Z DTEND:20160912T180000Z SUMMARY:Genetics Research Forum DESCRIPTION: Student Meeting\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Genetics Program\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://genetics.natsci.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Genetics Program Student Organization\n Contact phone: (517) 353-9845\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://genetics.natsci.msu.edu/events/upcoming/research-forum/\n LOCATION:1425 Biomedical & Physical Science Building END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160912T200000Z UID:1471361693088@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20160912T200000Z DTEND:20160912T210000Z SUMMARY:CMSE 2016 Fall Colloquium Series DESCRIPTION: Dr. Jeff Fessler\n September 12, 2016\n \n Colloquium by Prof. Jeff Fessler, Department of ECE, University of Michigan\n Department of ECE\n University of Michigan\n \n Host: Ming Yan\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Computational Mathematics, Science and Engineering\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://cmse.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Andrew Christlieb, Department Chair\n Contact phone: (517) 884-4987\n Contact email: christli@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://cmse.msu.edu/news-events/events/cmse-2016-fall-colloquium-series/\n LOCATION:CMSE Conference room END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160912T201000Z UID:1472151525493@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20160912T201000Z DTEND:20160912T210000Z SUMMARY:Topology Seminar Series DESCRIPTION: Title: Knot concordance and homology sphere groups\n Speaker: Kyle Larson, MSU\n We introduce the knot concordance group and various homology sphere groups constructed from 3-manifolds, and discuss two homomorphisms to the rational homology sphere group. If B denotes the homomorphism from the concordance group defined by taking double branched covers of knots, we show that the kernel of B is infinitely generated. We also study the inclusion homomorphism P from the integral homology sphere group. Using work of Lisca we show that the image of P intersects trivially with the subgroup generated by lens spaces.

Key ingredients for the calculation of spontaneous fission lifetime and yield distributions are the potential energy surface and the collective inertia. An improved theoretical framework is developed to estimate these input quantities precisely in multidimensional collective space. Further, the state-of-the-art action minimization technique is utilized to calculate the minimum action paths resulting the spontaneous fission observables. Recent progresses in this direction will be elaborated.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.nscl.msu.edu/\n Contact name: National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory\n Contact phone: 517-355-9671\n Contact email: nscl.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.nscl.msu.edu/apps/seminars.php\n LOCATION:Theory Trailer Conference Room END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160913T190000Z UID:1473359457996@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Academic DTSTART:20160913T190000Z DTEND:20160913T200000Z SUMMARY:Public Policy & International Relations Scholarships Information Session DESCRIPTION: Covering Truman, Carnegie, Beinecke, Presidential Fellows, and UK's scholarships.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: National/International Fellowships and Scholarships\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://nifs.msu.edu\n Contact name: National/International Fellowships and Scholarships\n Contact phone: 517-884-7650\n Contact email: nifs@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://nifs.msu.edu/calendar\n LOCATION:Berkey Hall, Room 115 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160913T200000Z UID:1473452526405@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20160913T200000Z DTEND:20160913T213000Z SUMMARY:Physical Chemistry Seminar DESCRIPTION: Topic: Properties of Ligand binding pathways obtained by advanced molecular simulation techniques\n \n Speaker: Professor Alex Dickson - Michigan State University\n \n Host: Professor Ben Levine\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Chemistry Building\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.chemistry.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Undergraduate Office/General Chemistry Office\n Contact phone: 517-353-1135\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.chemistry.msu.edu/colloquia-and-seminars/\n LOCATION:136 Chemistry Building END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160913T201000Z UID:1471460200684-0001@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20160913T201000Z DTEND:20160914T035900Z SUMMARY:Microbiology & Molecular Genetics Seminar DESCRIPTION: Weekly research seminars hosted by the Department of Microbiology and Molecular Genetics. \n \n All MMG seminars are at 4:10 P.M., TUESDAY, 1415 Biomedical Physical Sciences, unless noted otherwise.

In fact, many of the properties of explosive astrophysical events are determined by the nuclear physics of the radioactive nuclei that power the explosion. At the University of Notre Dame TwinSol radioactive beam separator, exotic nuclei of astrophysical interest are being produced and studied in order to further our understanding of astrophysical explosions. In fact, TwinSol was the first such device in the United States dedicated to radioactive beam production. Recent studies of astrophysical interest using the device will be presented along with plans for upcoming measurements with a particular focus on studies with radioactive 17F beams.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.nscl.msu.edu/\n Contact name: National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory\n Contact phone: 517-355-9671\n Contact email: nscl.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.nscl.msu.edu/apps/seminars.php\n LOCATION:National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory Seminar Room END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160914T210000Z UID:1473359573127@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Academic DTSTART:20160914T210000Z DTEND:20160914T220000Z SUMMARY:STEM Scholarships (Goldwater, Udall, Hollings, Churchill) Information Session DESCRIPTION: Price: free\n Sponsor: National/International Fellowships and Scholarships\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://nifs.msu.edu\n Contact name: National/International Fellowships and Scholarships\n Contact phone: 517-884-7650\n Contact email: nifs@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://nifs.msu.edu/calendar\n LOCATION:Engineering Building, Room 1145 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160914T230000Z UID:1470854136363@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Movie / Film DTSTART:20160914T230000Z DTEND:20160915T035900Z SUMMARY:La Pirogue DESCRIPTION: Presented by Ken Harrow, MSU Department of English\n \n In coordination with One Book, One Community\n \n Moussa Touré's drama chronicles a group of West African immigrants who attempt a hazardous illegal crossing to mainland Europe.\n Illuminating the desperate and moving human stories behind lurid headlines about illegal immigration, La Pirogue is a colorful and compelling drama about a boat full of would-be economic migrants attempting the perilous weeklong Atlantic crossing from Senegal to mainland Europe.

The first two lectures will focus on equivariant Lagrangian Floer cohomology. We will first do a quick review of ordinary equivariant cohomology, give an abbreviated introduction to Lagrangian Floer cohomology, and discuss some of the technical issues involved in constructing equivariant versions of same. We will then go over two major approaches to resolving these technical difficulties, with some examples and applications of each to such theories as Heegaard Floer homology and symplectic Khovanov homology. The third lecture will take a slightly different tack and focus on equivariant versions of Seiberg-Witten Floer homology (and, eventually, its analog Heegaard Floer homology) with applications to the homology cobordism groups. We will talk briefly about the structure of the integer homology cobordism group, and then discuss Manolescu's use of a Pin(2)-equivariant version of Seiberg-Witten Floer homology to resolve the Triangulations Conjecture. Finally, we will then discuss additional recent applications of the same ideas, including the use of an involution on Heegaard Floer homology to construct an 'involutive' theory analogous to Z_4-Seiberg Witten Floer homology.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Mathematics\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.math.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Department of Mathematics\n Contact phone: (517) 353-0844\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.math.msu.edu/Seminars/CalendarView.aspx?month-of=September2016\n LOCATION:C304 Wells Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160919T210000Z UID:1472663214279@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20160919T210000Z DTEND:20160919T220000Z SUMMARY:Canadian Osteopathic Student Organization General Meeting DESCRIPTION: General meeting for COSO members\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: student\n Contact name: Dhairya Kiri\n Contact phone: (517) 918-3609\n Contact email: kiridhai@msu.edu\n LOCATION:EL E105, DMC TBA, MUC UC3 209 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160920T040000Z UID:1466710532662-0089@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

If so, this is the workshop for you. Participants will learn how to use the recently developed Three-Dimensional Learning Assessment Protocol (3D-LAP) to create homework, quiz, and exam problems that engage students in three-dimensional learning. First described in the 2012 National Research Council report, A Framework for K-12 Science Education: Practices, Crosscutting Concepts, and Core Ideas, three-dimensional learning blends disciplinary core ideas, crosscutting concepts that span disciplines, and science practices such as constructing arguments and explanations, and developing and using models to predict and explain phenomena. Workshop participants will use the 3D-LAP to redesign and develop open-ended and multiple-choice assessment items that can be used in their classes. \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: CREATE for STEM Institute\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://create4stem.msu.edu/\n Contact name: CREATE for STEM Institute\n Contact phone: 517 432-0816\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://create4stem.msu.edu/event/upcoming\n LOCATION:1425 Biomedical Physical Sciences Building END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160920T190000Z UID:1473359711966@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Academic DTSTART:20160920T190000Z DTEND:20160920T200000Z SUMMARY:Public Policy & International Relations Scholarships Information Session DESCRIPTION: Covering the Truman, Carnegie, Beinecke, Presidential Fellows, and UK's scholarships. \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: National/International Fellowships and Scholarships\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://nifs.msu.edu\n Contact name: National/International Fellowships and Scholarships\n Contact phone: 517-884-7650\n Contact email: nifs@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://nifs.msu.edu/calendar\n LOCATION:Wells Hall, Room A132 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160920T201000Z UID:1471460200684-0002@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20160920T201000Z DTEND:20160921T035900Z SUMMARY:Microbiology & Molecular Genetics Seminar DESCRIPTION: Weekly research seminars hosted by the Department of Microbiology and Molecular Genetics. \n \n All MMG seminars are at 4:10 P.M., TUESDAY, 1415 Biomedical Physical Sciences, unless noted otherwise.

These songs by Ralph Chaplin and the most famous US labor martyr, Joe Hill, are still popular today. Charlie King, George Mann, and the folk duo Magpie (Greg Artzner and Terry Leonino) have used the recent 100th anniversary of the Utah execution of Joe Hill to tour the US presenting his music and the songs of the other IWW songwriters.\n \n For more information:\n \n http://charlieking.org/\n \n http://www.magpiemusic.com/\n \n http://georgemann.org/Home.html\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lib.msu.edu\n Contact name: Holly Flynn\n Contact phone: 517-884-0901\n Contact email: flynnhol@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://bookings.lib.msu.edu/event/2751745\n LOCATION:MSU Main Library Green Room (4-West) END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160930T170000Z UID:1472867085282@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

With Gideon Mendel's Drowning World: Red Cedar River Project as our backdrop, we'll ride our bikes from campus along the Lansing River Trail to where the Red Cedar River meets the Grand River. On our way, we'll talk to MSU professionals to identify and understand our watershed and find out what's being done to reduce pollutant runoff in our rivers. From our bikes, we'll also consider our daily activities and how they contribute to changes in our environment. The Red Cedar River Project is a partnership with MSU's Cultural Engagement Council, the organizing body behind this year's thematic year of arts and cultural programming entitled Water Moves MSU. The year-long initiative fosters and celebrates cultural and artistic expression inspired by water including conservation efforts, scientific research, and sustainability.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Broad MSU\n Contact phone: (517) 884-4800\n Contact email: eebam@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://broadmuseum.msu.edu\n LOCATION:Eli and Edythe Broad Art Museum at Michigan State University END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20161001T231500Z UID:1473786653970-0002@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20161001T231500Z DTEND:20161002T035900Z SUMMARY:Campus Center Cinemas - Swiss Army Man DESCRIPTION: \n\n Price: FREE for undergraduate students living in MSU residence halls, $2 for all others\n Sponsor: University Activities Board (UAB) and the Residence Halls Assoc.\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.uabevents.com\n Contact name: University Activities Board\n Contact phone: 355-3354\n Contact email: uab@rhs.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://uabevents.com\n LOCATION:B Wing, Wells Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20161002T010000Z UID:1473786783621-0003@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20161002T010000Z DTEND:20161002T035900Z SUMMARY:Campus Center Cinemas - Into the Forest DESCRIPTION: \n\n Price: FREE for undergraduate students living in MSU residence halls, $2 for all others\n Sponsor: University Activities Board (UAB) and the Residence Halls Assoc.\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.uabevents.com\n Contact name: University Activities Board\n Contact phone: 355-3354\n Contact email: uab@rhs.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://uabevents.com\n LOCATION:B Wing, Wells Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20161002T011500Z UID:1473786676611-0003@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20161002T011500Z DTEND:20161002T035900Z SUMMARY:Campus Center Cinemas - Swiss Army Man DESCRIPTION: \n\n Price: FREE for undergraduate students living in MSU residence halls, $2 for all others\n Sponsor: University Activities Board (UAB) and the Residence Halls Assoc.\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.uabevents.com\n Contact name: University Activities Board\n Contact phone: 355-3354\n Contact email: uab@rhs.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://uabevents.com\n LOCATION:B Wing, Wells Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20161002T040000Z UID:1467384101939@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Athletics DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20161002 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20161003 SUMMARY:MSU Hockey vs. Toronto DESCRIPTION: Sponsor: Athletics\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://msuspartans.com\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.msuspartans.com/sports/m-hockey/sched/msu-m-hockey-sched.html\n LOCATION:Munn Ice Arena END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20161002T040000Z UID:1466710532662-0101@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

The relationships between forests and people are being profoundly affected by the changing climate. It is introducing new challenges to natural resource management, intensifying and complicating traditional threats and stressors and presenting an increasing array of public policy issues and conflicts.\n \n These changes are not likely to settle down into some new normal in this century. Professional resource managers will develop their careers and make contributions in a context where there will be no normal. Leaders and managers will increasingly be faced with climate change effects, emerging policies, political controversies, a rapidly developing science base and a workforce concerned and educated in sustainability and climate change issues. The next 10 years will be a critical period in defining relationships between forests and people, and how professionals in many areas help adapt those relationships in the most positive ways.\n \n Parking will be provided at the Children's Garden-1066 Bogue St. East Lansing, MI 48823\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Jeana-Dee Allen\n Contact phone: 5173550097\n Contact email: allenjea@anr.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.for.msu.edu/events/event/forest_paths1\n LOCATION:MSU Molecular Plant Sciences, Room 1200 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20161004T040000Z UID:1466710532662-0103@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

Now with the ALMA Observatory on-line, we can begin to\n probe the birth environments of analogous massive clusters in a variety of "local" galaxies with\n sufficient angular resolution. I will give an overview of ALMA observations of galaxies in\n which candidate proto-super star cluster molecular clouds have been identified. These new data\n probe the physical conditions that give rise to super star clusters, providing information on their\n densities, pressures, and temperatures. In particular, the observations indicate that these clouds\n may be subject to external pressures of P/k > 10^8 K cm^{-3}, which is consistent with the\n prevalence of optically observed adolescent super star clusters in interacting galaxy systems and\n other high pressure environments. ALMA observations also enable an assessement of the\n molecular cloud chemical abundances in the regions surrounding super star clusters. Molecular\n clouds associated with existing super star clusters are strongly correlated with HCO+ emission,\n but appear to have relatively low ratio of CO/HCO+ emission compared to other clouds,\n indicating that the super star clusters are impacting the molecular abundances in their vicinity. \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Biomedical and Physical Sciences Building\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.pa.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Shawna Prater\n Contact email: prater@pa.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.pa.msu.edu/seminars/ast_seminars/current\n LOCATION: Room 1400 Biomedical and Physical Sciences Building END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20161005T190000Z UID:1473788251747@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20161005T190000Z DTEND:20161005T203000Z SUMMARY:Organic Seminar DESCRIPTION: Speaker: Daniel Steigerwald - Michigan State University\n \n Host: Professor Babak Borhan\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Chemistry\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.chemistry.msu.edu/colloquia-and-seminars/\n Contact name: Professor Babak Borhan\n Contact phone: 517-353-0501\n Contact email: babak@chemistry.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.chemistry.msu.edu/colloquia-and-seminars/\n LOCATION:136 Chemistry END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20161005T213000Z UID:1475508875450@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20161005T213000Z DTEND:20161005T223000Z SUMMARY:Assertive Russia as the Challenge of the 21st Century DESCRIPTION: James Madison College Founders Circle Lecture welcomes Dr. Lilia Shevtsova (non-resident Senior Fellow with the Brookings Institution)\n \n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Norman Graham\n Contact phone: 517-355-3277\n Contact email: ngraham@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://jmc.msu.edu/events/event.php?id=255\n LOCATION:Kellogg Center Auditorium END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20161006T000000Z UID:1472824013133-0005@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20161006T000000Z DTEND:20161006T034500Z SUMMARY:FREE Cosmic Bowling DESCRIPTION: Free for all MSU students plus one guest.

He recently published "A Radical Case for Open Borders" (with Vipul Naik) in The Economics of Immigration, edited by Benjamin Powell. \n \n Bryan Caplan is Professor of Economics at George Mason University and Senior Scholar at the Mercatus Center. He is the author of The Myth of the Rational Voter: Why Democracies Choose Bad Policies, named "the best political book of the year" by the New York Times, and Selfish Reasons to Have More Kids: Why Being a Great Parent Is Less Work and More Fun Than You Think. He has published in the New York Times, the Washington Post, the Wall Street Journal, the American Economic Review, the Economic Journal, the Journal of Law and Economics, and Intelligence, and has appeared on 20/20, Fox News, and C-SPAN.

Fujimura DESCRIPTION: Dr. Joan H. Fujimura\n Professor of Sociology\n University of Wisconsin-Madison\n Winner, 2013 David Edge Prize from the\n Society for Social Studies of Science (4S)\n \n "Big Biology, Infrastructures, and Race:\n How genomics became imbricated in representations of race and how race representations became imbricated in genomics"\n Berkey Hall 457\n Friday, October 7, 12:00-1:30pm\n \n Do the new genomics undo our understandings of races as social constructions? This talk analyzes biomedical statistical genomics technologies and data to demonstrate that genetic differences are clinal and therefore do not map onto racial categories. Why then are some geneticists, sociologists, and news media interpreting the new genomic data to say that race categories are biological and genetic categories? In the 1990s, geneticists began to build ad hoc infrastructures as "short-cuts" to quickly find genomic markers that would lead them to the many genes they suspected were involved in common complex diseases. But each infrastructure was not enough, so they built another. At this time, we have layers of infrastructures, each supporting the other, each based on the previous. Genetics is now in a time of "big science," "big data." But infrastructures are not innocent. They carry with them practices based on assumptions of "genome geography," some of which have become embedded in the infrastructure. The Hapmap is one such infrastructure that incorporated notions of population differences that some have read as ancestral differences that some downstream users have read as racial differences. In a situation of uncertainty, ambiguity, and many folk assumptions about social differences, some geneticists, sociologists, media members, and members of various publics have read race into the differences that were constructed using algorithmic technologies of difference. We conduct an archaeology of the assumptions and practices built into the layers of infrastructure, which we use to argue against the reading of race into DNA clusters.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Logan Williams\n Contact phone: 517-353-4855\n Contact email: will2734@msu.edu\n LOCATION:Berkey Hall 457 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20161007T160000Z UID:1475012291738@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20161007T160000Z DTEND:20161007T173000Z SUMMARY:Big Biology, Infrastructures, and Race - Dr. Joan H.

Feedback\n from accretion onto supermassive black holes is implicated in establishing the black hole mass vs\n galaxy bulge correlations and in limiting the maximal mass of galaxies. In this talk, I will review\n the indirect evidence for quasar feedback as required by galaxy formation models. I will then\n present recent multi-wavelength observations of powerful quasar-driven winds and outflows on\n galaxy-wide scales. These data may provide direct observational evidence for one of the longstanding\n paradigms in galaxy formation.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Biomedical and Physical Sciences Building\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.pa.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Shawna Prater\n Contact email: prater@pa.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.pa.msu.edu/seminars/ast_seminars/current\n LOCATION: Room 1400 Biomedical and Physical Sciences Building END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20161012T130000Z UID:1470407126259@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

Steve previously worked at public radio and television stations in Florida, Oklahoma and Kentucky, and also has extensive experience in commercial broadcasting. During his two and a half decades in broadcasting, Steve has won numerous awards, including accolades from the Associated Press and Radio and Television News Directors Association. Away from the broadcast booth, Steve is an avid reader and movie fanatic.\n \n - Panelist EMILY ELCONIN is a senior with majors in Journalism (with a visual concentration) and the Residential College in the Arts and Humanities. Her area of study that she likes to focus on is social justice. Emily spent a little over three months traveling to Flint at least twice a week to see first-hand what the city was going through. As a staff photojournalist for The State News, one of her first assignments was to cover the protests for the Flint Water Crisis on the steps of the Capitol building in Lansing. From then on, her passion grew for helping to share stories of the world that need to be heard, including Stories From Flint (storiesfromflint.com). What Emily discovered in Flint was more than just a broken city suffering from one mistake -- she discovered what social injustice really means.\n \n - Moderator SARA FINGAL is an Assistant Professor at MSU with a dual appointment in Lyman Briggs College and the Department of History. Her work to date ties together urban and rural history with an analysis of landscapes and ecosystems that transcend municipal, state, and national boundaries throughout North America. Her principal teaching and research areas are water history, environmental history, North American borderlands, social movements, the Great Lakes, and race and gender in post-1945 U.S. society and culture. Her current book manuscript is focused on conflicts over water access and property rights along the Pacific coastline in the mid-twentieth century. Additionally, she is researching abundant natural resource management and the role of women, children, and scientists in twentieth century environmental controversies.\n \n - Panelist MELISSA MAYS has proudly lived in Flint since 2002. She supports local musicians, bands and charities. Before the poisoning of her city, Melissa's life was all about music and my family. That changed in January 2015 when she received the TTHM violation notice telling her family that their water had a cancer-causing byproduct in it for 9 months and the State had never told them. She realized that every time they had been told that the water was safe, they were wrong.\n \n She decided to start doing research and contacting environment experts and activists like Erin Brockovich, Robert Bowcock, Scott Smith, Mark Ruffalo, Lois Gibbs and more. Melissa and her husband formed Water You Fighting For and held a huge march February 14, 2015, which helped us launch an educational campaign to hold meetings, rallies, protests, and marches to keep the attention on what was happening to Flint residents. They connected with activists in Detroit and across Michigan to unite and stand together against the loss of democracy and denial to clean, safe, affordable water in this state.\n \n - Panelist SAN JUANA OLIVARES is the president of the Genesee County Hispanic/Latino Collaborative in Flint. She is the oldest of six children and is dedicated to making Flint, Michigan, a better place for everyone that lives and works in and around the county.\n \n San Juana was born on January 8, 1984, in Matamoros, Tamaulipas, Mexico. She moved to Flint, Michigan, on June 10, 1994, and has resided there ever since. She attended Flint Central High School, but graduated from Mount Morris Alternative High School in 2003, becoming the first one in her family to receive a high school diploma and graduated a Salutatorian. San Juana was involved with the American GI Forum Flint Chapter and volunteered at Washington Elementary School, American GI Forum, the Genesee County Hispanic Latino Collaborative, and Durant Tuuri Mott, where she taught dance to Kindergarten through sixth graders.\n \n San Juana was a member of ROTC 1999-2001 at Flint Central High School. She was President of S.A.D.D., played JV soccer and was team captain; she participated in the Upward Bound Program through Mott Community College.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: MSU Residential College in the Arts and Humanities\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://rcah.msu.edu\n Contact name: Katie Wittenauer\n Contact phone: (517) 884-6290\n Contact email: wittenau@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://rcah.msu.edu/news-events/events/wednesday-night-live-flint-water-crisis-panel\n LOCATION:Snyder-Phillips Hall, Terrace Level END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20161013T000000Z UID:1472824013133-0006@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20161013T000000Z DTEND:20161013T034500Z SUMMARY:FREE Cosmic Bowling DESCRIPTION: Free for all MSU students plus one guest.

I piece the fabric scraps together forming a quilt top that is then stretched on a support. The design of the piecework is appropriated from traditional quilt patterns, but the initial symmetry of the piecework is compromised through stretching, causing the material to warp. Therefore, the support of the painting is a tool for transformation, revealing the potential of these materials, and pushing them into a role for which they are not traditionally used.\n \n Raised in North Carolina, Anna Buckner received a BFA in painting from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 2012 and a MFA in painting from Indiana University in 2016. In 2014, she completed an apprenticeship in Buddhist Thangka painting in Sikkim, India. Anna Buckner has exhibited nationally extensively and was recently featured in the 125th edition of New American Paintings. She is currently a Visiting Assistant Professor at Michigan State University.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Jacquelynn Sullivan\n Contact phone: 517-432-3961\n Contact email: scene@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.art.msu.edu/content/between-two-points-exhibition-scene-metrospace\n LOCATION:(SCENE) Metrospace, 110 Charles Street, East Lansing, MI 48823 (AAHD) END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20161014T203000Z UID:1475343125352@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20161014T203000Z DTEND:20161014T223000Z SUMMARY:MSU 2016 Homecoming: Spartans for Life DESCRIPTION: Stop by the museum before the 2016 Homecoming Parade and create your own Spartan keepsake!

In between these two extremes lies a rich and relatively unexplored realm of\n observational signatures. In this talk I will describe our recent efforts to develop techniques and\n analyze datasets exploiting the "semi-resolved" stellar population regime, both spectroscopically\n and temporally.

The cloche - a bell-shaped hat considered "clever" and "smart" - framed the face with Art Deco panache.

I piece the fabric scraps together forming a quilt top that is then stretched on a support. The design of the piecework is appropriated from traditional quilt patterns, but the initial symmetry of the piecework is compromised through stretching, causing the material to warp. Therefore, the support of the painting is a tool for transformation, revealing the potential of these materials, and pushing them into a role for which they are not traditionally used.\n \n Raised in North Carolina, Anna Buckner received a BFA in painting from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 2012 and a MFA in painting from Indiana University in 2016. In 2014, she completed an apprenticeship in Buddhist Thangka painting in Sikkim, India. Anna Buckner has exhibited nationally extensively and was recently featured in the 125th edition of New American Paintings. She is currently a Visiting Assistant Professor at Michigan State University.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Jacquelynn Sullivan\n Contact phone: 517-432-3961\n Contact email: scene@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.art.msu.edu/content/scene-metrospace\n LOCATION:(SCENE) Metrospace, 110 Charles Street, East Lansing, MI 48823 (AAHD) END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20161020T193000Z UID:1471364069515@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20161020T193000Z DTEND:20161021T035900Z SUMMARY:Ecology, Evolutionary Biology and Behavior Seminar DESCRIPTION: Ulrich G.

DESCRIPTION: ...in post classical antiquity\n \n History of Art New Publication Speaker Series\n \n Cosponsored by Department of Art, Art History, and Design\n \n By most accounts, the "meaningful reuse" of architectural fragments in the construction of buildings and monuments became a popular practice only in the late Roman and Byzantine Mediterranean. For unlike prior instances of reuse, which had taken place everywhere throughout time, this new form of recycling seems to have been designed to draw attention to the object's previous life in a different setting. This is most readily apparent in the case of inscriptions, which can be recognized in the walls and pavements of countless buildings of the Medieval period. However, given the relatively low levels of Greek and Latin literacy in antiquity, it is worth asking whether these reused inscriptions were meant to be read, or whether it was sufficient that they be recognized as ancient writing. This presentation seeks to use the example of contemporary art as a way to approach the question and to advance the scholarly discussion, which remains divided on the issue.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lib.msu.edu\n Contact name: Holly Flynn\n Contact phone: 517-884-0901\n Contact email: flynnhol@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://bookings.lib.msu.edu/event/2739886\n LOCATION:MSU Main Library Green Room (4-West) END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20161020T230000Z UID:1475526088264@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Movie / Film DTSTART:20161020T230000Z DTEND:20161021T010000Z SUMMARY:Just Eat It: A Food Waste Story DESCRIPTION: Join MSU Sustainability, University Activities Board and the East Lansing Food Co-op for the screening of "Just Eat It," a food waste documentary.

I use my relativistic time-independent Monte Carlo neutrino transport code SEDONU to\n evaluate the effectiveness of leakage, moment, and discrete ordinate schemes in both of these\n scenarios, and calculate neutrino pair annihilation rates to try to explain the jet launching\n mechanism of GRBs. I also developed a relativistic extension to the Random Walk\n approximation that greatly accelerates convergence in diffusive regimes, making full-domain\n simulations possible. All of these improvements will culminate in a coupled Monte Carlo - two\n moment transport scheme efficient enough to incorporate into the to-date most accurate global\n three-dimensional GRMHD simulations.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Biomedical and Physical Sciences Building\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.pa.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Shawna Prater\n Contact email: prater@pa.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.pa.msu.edu/seminars/ast_seminars/current\n LOCATION: Room 1400 Biomedical and Physical Sciences Building END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20161026T180000Z UID:1475772806320@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20161026T180000Z DTEND:20161026T190000Z SUMMARY:SOSA Guest Speaker Bob Verdun DESCRIPTION: Student Osteopathic Surgical Association (SOSA), Student Government Association (SGA), and Student Osteopathic Medical Association (SOMA).

Keefe will be speaking October 26, in Conrad Hall, Room 102, from 5:00-7:00 p.m. regarding his new book Twelve Twenty-Five: The Life and Times of a Steam Locomotive published by the MSU Press.\n Pere Marquette 1225 was built in 1941 at the peak of steam locomotive development. The narrative traces the 1225's regular freight service in Michigan, its unlikely salvation from the scrapyard for preservation at Michigan State University, and the subsequent work to bring it back to steam, first by a student club and later by a railroad museum. Milestones along the way include 1225's retirement in 1951, its donation to MSU in 1957, its return to steam in 1988, a successful career hauling tens of thousands of excursion riders, and its starring role in the 2004 movie The Polar Express.\n The MSU Archives will host an open house featuring unique historical documents and photographs of the 1225.\n Author Kevin P. Keefe will be available to sign his new book, copies will be available for purchase, and light refreshments will be served.\n This event is free and open to the public.

The experience of a New York City loft is inexorably framed by the artist's masterful use of the "long zoom."

Therefore, the support of the painting is a tool for transformation, revealing the potential of these materials, and pushing them into a role for which they are not traditionally used.\n \n Raised in North Carolina, Anna Buckner received a BFA in painting from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 2012 and a MFA in painting from Indiana University in 2016. In 2014, she completed an apprenticeship in Buddhist Thangka painting in Sikkim, India.

William Ravlin, Department of Entomology. Introduction by Adam Brown, MSU Associate Professor, Electronic Art and Intermedia.\n \n For almost a decade, Kuai Shen's art practice explores the relationship between human technology and the sociality of ants. His audiovisual installations reflect on the remediation between ants and humans as a metaphor for a non-human ecology whose future lies in the mutualism between artefacts and organisms.\n \n In this talk Kuai Shen will discuss how certain species of insects mimic the appearance, behavior and chemical communication of ants and how these behaviors provide insight into the human techno/social condition.\n \n "By studying ants' behavior, a common ground for interspecies-communication may be established, which could help us understand emergent phenomena in nature and the biological relevance of social networking."\n \n For more information about the Bridge Artist Residency please visit:\n \n http://bridge.art.msu.edu/\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Adam Brown\n Contact email: brown293@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://bridge.art.msu.edu/residents/\n LOCATION:Abrams Planetarium END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20161027T233000Z UID:1471436506029@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

I piece the fabric scraps together forming a quilt top that is then stretched on a support. The design of the piecework is appropriated from traditional quilt patterns, but the initial symmetry of the piecework is compromised through stretching, causing the material to warp. Therefore, the support of the painting is a tool for transformation, revealing the potential of these materials, and pushing them into a role for which they are not traditionally used.\n \n Raised in North Carolina, Anna Buckner received a BFA in painting from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 2012 and a MFA in painting from Indiana University in 2016. In 2014, she completed an apprenticeship in Buddhist Thangka painting in Sikkim, India. Anna Buckner has exhibited nationally extensively and was recently featured in the 125th edition of New American Paintings. She is currently a Visiting Assistant Professor at Michigan State University.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Jacquelynn Sullivan\n Contact phone: 517-432-3961\n Contact email: scene@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.art.msu.edu/content/scene-metrospace\n LOCATION:(SCENE) Metrospace, 110 Charles Street, East Lansing, MI 48823 (AAHD) END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20161030T180000Z UID:1467385542484@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Athletics DTSTART:20161030T180000Z DTEND:20161031T035900Z SUMMARY:MSU Field Hockey vs. Stanford DESCRIPTION: Sponsor: Athletics\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://msuspartans.com\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.msuspartans.com/sports/w-fieldh/sched/msu-w-fieldh-sched.html\n LOCATION:Ralph Young Field END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20161030T190000Z UID:1471523414353@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

Citizen science - engaging\n the public in research - provides a solution, particularly when coupled with machine learning\n algorithms and sophisticated task allocation and retirement rules. Zooniverse is the most widely\n used and successful citizen science platform, with over 1.5 million volunteers worldwide and 40\n active projects across the disciplines (including ecology, archaeology, climate science, oncology,\n physics, astronomy, and the humanities). To date, Zooniverse projects have produced over 100\n peer-reviewed publications. Faced with a rapidly growing demand for citizen science projects,\n Zooniverse has launched a new 'Project Builder' which allows you, the researcher, to build your\n own project in-house using the Zooniverse infrastructure and tools. In this talk I will provide an\n overview of Zooniverse innovations and open questions, as well as a brief tutorial on building\n your own crowdsourcing project.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Biomedical and Physical Sciences Building\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.pa.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Shawna Prater\n Contact email: prater@pa.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.pa.msu.edu/seminars/ast_seminars/current\n LOCATION: Room 1400 Biomedical and Physical Sciences Building END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20161102T190000Z UID:1470234496502@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20161102T190000Z DTEND:20161102T203000Z SUMMARY:Organic Seminar DESCRIPTION: Dr.Hong Ren\n MERCK CO.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Chemistry\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.chemistry.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Brenda Franklin\n Contact phone: (517) 355-9715\n Contact email: franklin@chemistry.msu.edu\n LOCATION:Chemistry END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20161102T200000Z UID:1476025654175@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20161102T200000Z DTEND:20161102T210000Z SUMMARY:Class of 2019 Presentation by Red Wing's Team Physician, Dr. Anthony Colucci, D.O.

I piece the fabric scraps together forming a quilt top that is then stretched on a support. The design of the piecework is appropriated from traditional quilt patterns, but the initial symmetry of the piecework is compromised through stretching, causing the material to warp. Therefore, the support of the painting is a tool for transformation, revealing the potential of these materials, and pushing them into a role for which they are not traditionally used.\n \n Raised in North Carolina, Anna Buckner received a BFA in painting from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 2012 and a MFA in painting from Indiana University in 2016. In 2014, she completed an apprenticeship in Buddhist Thangka painting in Sikkim, India. Anna Buckner has exhibited nationally extensively and was recently featured in the 125th edition of New American Paintings. She is currently a Visiting Assistant Professor at Michigan State University.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Jacquelynn Sullivan\n Contact phone: 517-432-3961\n Contact email: scene@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.art.msu.edu/content/scene-metrospace\n LOCATION:(SCENE) Metrospace, 110 Charles Street, East Lansing, MI 48823 (AAHD) END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20161106T180000Z UID:1477075214945@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

The catalog is freely\n available on the web (http://sne.space), with its main interface having been designed to be a userfriendly,\n rapidly-searchable table accessible on desktop and mobile devices. In addition to the\n primary table which contains SNe metadata, an individual page is generated for each SN which\n displays its metadata, light curves, and spectra. The data presented in the catalog is automatically\n rebuilt on a daily basis and is constructed by parsing several dozen sources, including the data\n presented in the supernova literature, i.e. "primary" sources, and from "secondary" sources such\n as other web-based catalogs. Individual SN data is stored in the hierarchical, human- and\n machine-readable JSON format, with the entirety of each SN's data being contained within a\n single JSON file bearing its name. The setup I'll present, which is based upon open source\n software maintained via git repositories hosted on GitHub, enables anyone to download the\n entirety of the supernova dataset to their home computer in minutes, and to easily make\n contributions of their own data back to the catalog. I'll describe how the catalog framework we\n have developed will be an important pillar for supporting upcoming transient surveys.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Biomedical and Physical Sciences Building\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.pa.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Shawna Prater\n Contact email: prater@pa.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.pa.msu.edu/seminars/ast_seminars/current\n LOCATION: Room 1400 Biomedical and Physical Sciences Building END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20161109T200000Z UID:1472826071125@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Public Programs DTSTART:20161109T200000Z DTEND:20161109T220000Z SUMMARY:Global Engagement Speaker Series DESCRIPTION: Dr. Budd Hall, co-chair of UNESCO's Community Based Research and Social Responsibility in Higher Education, highlights the role of higher education as a collaborator with society, government, and industry.

I piece the fabric scraps together forming a quilt top that is then stretched on a support. The design of the piecework is appropriated from traditional quilt patterns, but the initial symmetry of the piecework is compromised through stretching, causing the material to warp. Therefore, the support of the painting is a tool for transformation, revealing the potential of these materials, and pushing them into a role for which they are not traditionally used.\n \n Raised in North Carolina, Anna Buckner received a BFA in painting from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 2012 and a MFA in painting from Indiana University in 2016. In 2014, she completed an apprenticeship in Buddhist Thangka painting in Sikkim, India.

I piece the fabric scraps together forming a quilt top that is then stretched on a support. The design of the piecework is appropriated from traditional quilt patterns, but the initial symmetry of the piecework is compromised through stretching, causing the material to warp. Therefore, the support of the painting is a tool for transformation, revealing the potential of these materials, and pushing them into a role for which they are not traditionally used.\n \n Raised in North Carolina, Anna Buckner received a BFA in painting from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 2012 and a MFA in painting from Indiana University in 2016. In 2014, she completed an apprenticeship in Buddhist Thangka painting in Sikkim, India. Anna Buckner has exhibited nationally extensively and was recently featured in the 125th edition of New American Paintings. She is currently a Visiting Assistant Professor at Michigan State University.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Jacquelynn Sullivan\n Contact phone: 517-432-3691\n Contact email: scene@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.art.msu.edu/content/scene-metrospace\n LOCATION:(SCENE) Metrospace, 110 Charles Street, East Lansing, MI 48823 (AAHD) END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20161117T200000Z UID:1478278702276@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20161117T200000Z DTEND:20161117T205000Z SUMMARY:James Francis Hannan Visiting Scholars Series DESCRIPTION: We are honored to have internationally renowned statistician Professor Peter Bühlmann, ETH, Zurich, visiting the MSU Department of Statistics and Probability as a James Francis Hannan Visiting Scholar, for the week of November 12 to 18, 2016. \n \n James Hannan was a founding faculty member of the Department of Statistics and Probability at MSU (1953-2002). Jim published important and novel findings in statistics and game theory, and directed or co-directed twenty graduate students to their PhD's. The James Francis Hannan Visiting Scholar Program was established to honor Jim by the generous support from his wife Bettie Hannan.\n \n Peter Bühlmann is Professor of Mathematics and Statistics, and currently Chair of the Department of Mathematics at ETH Zurich. He studied mathematics at ETH Zurich and received his doctoral degree in 1993 from the same institution. He was a Postdoctoral Research Fellow in 1994-1995 and a Neyman Assistant Professor from 1995-1997 at UC Berkeley. \n \n Professor Peter Bühlmann, ETH, Zurich will cover Inhomogenous Large-Scale Data: New Opportunities for Causal Inference and Prediction. \n \n Abstract: Large-scale or "big" data usually refers to scenarios with potentially very many variables (large\n dimension) and large sample size. Such data is most often of "inhomogeneous" nature, i.e.,\n neither being random samples from a common population nor being generated from a\n stationary distribution. We discuss how to exploit the advantage of heterogeneity in large\n datasets. A key ingredient is an invariance principle that leads to new approaches for causal\n inference and novel prediction methods, which exhibit "robustness" even for scenarios not\n present in the observed data. As a concrete application, we discuss large-scale gene knockdown\n experiments in yeast (Saccharomyces Cerevisiae) where computational and statistical\n methods have an interesting potential for prediction and prioritization of new experimental\n interventions.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Statistics and Probability\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.stt.msu.edu\n Contact name: Department of Statistics and Probability\n Contact phone: 517-355-9589\n Contact email: staff@stt.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://stt.msu.edu/Seminars/default.aspx\n LOCATION:B122 Wells Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20161117T203000Z UID:1471368406051@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20161117T203000Z DTEND:20161118T045900Z SUMMARY:Ecology, Evolutionary Biology and Behavior Seminar DESCRIPTION: Aimee S.

Just in the last year or two, limits from power spectrum experiments have entered\n plausible regions of parameter space, with experiments targeting the sky-averaged ("global")\n signal seemingly not far behind. Despite steady and clearly complementary progress in the highz\n galaxies community, there have been few efforts to model the galaxy luminosity function and\n the 21-cm background within a common framework, leaving 21-cm predictions poorly calibrated\n and the prospects for overcoming degeneracies in models unclear. In this talk, I will describe a\n new model for the global 21-cm signal calibrated to recent measurements of the luminosity\n function, as well as the CMB optical depth, z~8 21-cm power spectrum, and X-ray luminosity\n star formation rate relation, and show that it leads to qualitatively different predictions than those\n that were used to guide the design of the first generation of experiments. I will discuss how our\n models might inform ongoing observing campaigns and how an initial detection would provide\n important constraints on the efficiency of star formation, escape fraction, and X-ray emissions of\n faint galaxies at high redshift.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Biomedical and Physical Sciences Building\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.pa.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Shawna Prater\n Contact email: prater@pa.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.pa.msu.edu/seminars/ast_seminars/current\n LOCATION: Room 1400 Biomedical and Physical Sciences Building END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20161130T200000Z UID:1470234698042@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20161130T200000Z DTEND:20161130T213000Z SUMMARY:Organic Seminar DESCRIPTION: Professor Fu-Sen Liang\n University of New Mexico\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Chemistry\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.chemistry.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Brenda Franklin\n Contact phone: (517) 355-9715\n Contact email: franklin@chemistry.msu.edu\n LOCATION:Chemistry END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20161130T233000Z UID:1478799832955@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20161130T233000Z DTEND:20161201T013000Z SUMMARY:KBS Meet the Artists DESCRIPTION: Guests are invited for a free event to learn more about the artists and artisans whose wares are on display in the Manor House.

The six concertos, each written with its own voice, fit together remarkably well. They have proven their extraordinary power to move, exhilarate, delight and captivate audiences for over 250 years. Famous for their lightness of touch and ability to communicate the different voices in the concertos, the Chamber Music Society's performance of them has become a New York holiday tradition that has been called "Rarified... with a brilliant close" (Chicago Classical Review), and "brimming with life" (The New York Times).

Storm Glassis a barometer, based on an old Victorian model, which for Lyons reflects the arbitrary nature of trying to predict the future.

The MSU Undergraduate Research Office and the Honors College have been examining the impact of mentoring undergraduate researchers on faculty productivity and career advancement. Individual interviews were conducted with faculty representing a variety of academic disciplines (i.e., STEM, social sciences, humanities) and in different stages of their careers (i.e., assistant, associate, and full professors) who had an established record of mentoring undergraduate researchers. The goal is to develop a better understanding of the motivations, barriers, and rewards for faculty members mentoring undergraduate researchers as well as identify best practices and/or viable training models. Through a presentation and large group discussion, the presenters will share preliminary findings and seek feedback for implications on future practice. \n \n Registration link: https://docs.google.com/a/msu.edu/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfBMhS5YVeNLFDGqxhP_wtSr_lzMjbxnNBcLnQKLLnAtT6Puw/viewform\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: CREATE for STEM Institute\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://create4stem.msu.edu/\n Contact name: CREATE for STEM Institute\n Contact phone: 517 432-0816\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://teachingessentials.msu.edu/\n LOCATION:1425 Biomedical Physical Sciences Building END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20170117T170000Z UID:1483049517865-0002@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

Our goals are to introduce the children to different facets of the target language and culture, expand their existing knowledge, and increase their abilities in speaking and listening while incorporating some reading and writing in the target language. We emphasize functional language use and cultural awareness. Our small class sizes allow us to work more closely with your children and maximize learning outcomes.

A comparison of the historical path of the almanac's development in the United States with other countries gives reason to make a conclusion about the particular pragmatism of the American people.\n Speaker: Julia Balashova, Professor of Journalism and Mass Communications, Saint Petersburg State University, Russia\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Norman Graham\n Contact phone: 5173553277\n Contact email: ngraham@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://ceres.isp.msu.edu/other-do-not-delete/events/?id=49272\n LOCATION:Room 302, International Center END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20170131T000000Z UID:1483983516129@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Public Programs DTSTART:20170131T000000Z DTEND:20170131T020000Z SUMMARY:Read a poet/write a poem, part 2 DESCRIPTION: The life of poetry with activist poet Muriel Rukeyser\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://poetry.rcah.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Laurie Hollinger\n Contact phone: 5178841932\n Contact email: cpoetry@msu.edu\n LOCATION:Snyder Hall C301 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20170131T003000Z UID:1471697988706@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

The photographs from that story, taken by photographer Wayne Lawrence, and a newly created National Geographic map of Detroit make up the exhibit.\n \n Meanwhile, even as "Taking Back Detroit" takes up residence at the MSU Museum, Detroit continues to write its story of revival. To that end opening July 18, the exhibit will also profile the work of Michigan State University faculty, researchers, educators and students who have undertaken community-based projects to enhance quality of life in the region.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu\n Contact phone: 517-355-2370\n Contact email: pr@museum.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu\n LOCATION:MSU Museum END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20170131T050000Z UID:1472667919552-0016@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

Programs are hosted by colleges and universities around the United States, and they provide an intensive research experience on a particular topic within a scholarly discipline. Participants generally work with an advisor on a research project over the duration of their respective programs (usually 10 to 12 weeks). Many host universities cover all expenses (including travel, accommodations, and food) and provide a stipend. For undergraduates with plans for graduate or professional school after MSU, summer research provides the opportunity to expand your professional network and acquire experience in an area of interest.

DTSTART:20170209T000000Z DTEND:20170209T045900Z SUMMARY:Into the Golden Age: Celtic Art of a Medieval Ireland DESCRIPTION: Using the Irish Uprising of 1916 as a starting point, 2116: Forecast of the Next Century asks 16 contemporary artists to look forward another 100 years and imagine what the future might hold for Ireland. In this lecture, Caitlin Doherty, curator of the exhibition, will take us back to early Medieval times and a shared Celtic tradition which has become immediately recognizable around the world today. Using some of the finest works of art from this time as examples such as manuscript illumination, metalwork and stone sculpture, the audience will be taken on a journey into the Golden Age of Irish art and will further consider how this continues to inform an understanding of Irish identity today.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Broad MSU\n Contact phone: (517) 884-4800\n Contact email: eebam@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://broadmuseum.msu.edu\n LOCATION:Eli and Edythe Broad Art Museum END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20170209T003000Z UID:1485878037552@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Public Programs DTSTART:20170209T003000Z DTEND:20170209T023000Z SUMMARY:Ask Anything DESCRIPTION: Why is there suffering?

Newly-married Broadway vets Jarrod Spector and Kelli Barrett are often asked, "What's it like to be married to a fellow artist?" Bringing to life the greatest songs birthed from the greatest marriages, the two attempt to answer that question. From Barry Mann & Cynthia Weil to Alan & Marilyn Bergman to Sonny & Cher to Beyoncé & Jay-Z, themes of love, heartbreak, triumph and despair infuse these incredible songs and the storied partnerships themselves. Tony Award® nominee Jarrod Spector originated the role of Barry Mann in Beautiful - The Carole King Musical, and is known for his vocal prowess as Frankie Valli in Broadway's Jersey Boys. Kelli Barrett recently originated the role of Lara in Broadway's Doctor Zhivago. She has also appeared on Broadway in Wicked, Baby It's You! and The Royal Family. This night celebrates marriage as the powerful force behind this timeless music and tackles the difficult questions behind keeping it all together. \n\n Price: Tickets from $18\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Wharton Center\n Contact phone: 5173531982\n Contact email: whartoncenter@gmail.com\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.whartoncenter.com/events/detail/jarrod-spector\n LOCATION:Wharton Center for Performing Arts END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20170215T000000Z UID:1484140733590-0006@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20170215T000000Z DTEND:20170215T045900Z SUMMARY:University Activities Board weekly meeting DESCRIPTION: Come to the weekly UAB meeting and join in on the fun!

Unable to resist the Zone's pull, the Stalker of the title leads a washed-up writer and a cynical scientist on a spiritual and philosophical quest to the heart of the Zone. The illusion of continuous action through the constantly shifting landscape and strange, nondiegetic sound cast a seductive spell while ultimately frustrating any single interpretation.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Peter Johnston\n Contact email: john2950@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://filmstudies.cal.msu.edu/filmcollective\n LOCATION:B122 Wells Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20170217T003000Z UID:1482265483762@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Public Programs DTSTART:20170217T003000Z DTEND:20170217T020000Z SUMMARY:The Great American Eclipse: Getting Ready for August 2017 DESCRIPTION: For the February Astronomical Horizons Lecture Series, join Dr. Shannon Schmoll, director of the Abrams Planetarium, to learn about the upcoming Solar Eclipse in August 2017 and what you can do to prepare!\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Abrams Planetarium\n Contact email: abrams@pa.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.abramsplanetarium.org\n LOCATION:Abrams Planetarium END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20170217T050000Z UID:1467384587928@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Athletics DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20170217 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20170218 SUMMARY:MSU Hockey vs. Ohio State DESCRIPTION: Sponsor: Athletics\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://msuspartans.com\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.msuspartans.com/sports/m-hockey/sched/msu-m-hockey-sched.html\n LOCATION:Munn Ice Arena END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20170217T050000Z UID:1472667919552-0033@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

Joined on stage by a drummer and DJ, they were named the hottest band at SXSW in 2013. This South Florida hip-hop, Brahms-playing quartet has collaborated with the likes of P. Diddy, Kanye West, 50 Cent, Tom Petty, Aerosmith, Aretha Franklin and The Eagles. After winning over the Apollo in a smash performance, cementing their hard-earned position in pop culture, Black Violin has engaged audiences with a fresh take on a classic style. Always bold, eternally profound, Black Violin transports and entertains in a way that has never been seen on stage before and may never be seen again. A swagger unheard-of in the classical genre, their breathtaking repertoire features everything from Ed Sheeran's "Thinking Out Loud" to "Alright" by Kendrick Lamar. Less a concert, more so a block party, Black Violin knows the meaning of an outrageously good time. Don't miss an evening that is sure to surprise and delight you! \n\n Price: Tickets from $14\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Wharton Center\n Contact phone: 5173531982\n Contact email: whartoncenter@gmail.com\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.whartoncenter.com/events/detail/black-violin\n LOCATION:Wharton Center for Performing Arts END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20170218T010000Z UID:1482179305245@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Public Programs DTSTART:20170218T010000Z DTEND:20170218T023000Z SUMMARY:Ice Worlds DESCRIPTION: In honor of the new MSU Initiative, WaterMovesMSU, we will be showing Ice Worlds this winer.

Over his 20-year career he has worked for publications including Time magazine, The New York Times, Outside, Automobile, Huffington Post, Vice, Story, The American, HOUR among many others and exhibited work in New York City, Michigan and Wyoming.\n \n The power of the still image to enlighten and affect public change has been a core principal and motivating factor behind much of his work. \n \n Working mostly in the reportage style of photography, he strives to document and highlight details of modern life and sub-culture that mostly go overlooked and to capture moments of time that express something greater then the moments themselves. \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: MSU Residential College in the Arts and Humanities\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://rcah.msu.edu\n Contact name: Katie Wittenauer\n Contact phone: (517) 884-6290\n Contact email: wittenau@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://rcah.msu.edu/news-events/events/wednesday-night-live-joshua-kristal\n LOCATION:Snyder-Phillips Hall, Terrace Level END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20170223T003000Z UID:1481047902478@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

Indian languages have their own terms to describe this phenomenon and, quite often, victims of this history provide in their oral testimonies versions that complicate the singularity of this event even further. My talk will provide the dialectics between history and memory, state and individuals to show how this "event" is constructed and remembered in diverse ways in India. I will focus largely on my research on Sindh and how its minorities migrated to India during Partition, their processes of rehabilitation and resettlement and also compare them with Sindhi speaking Muslims who have lived along the borders of Kutch and Rajasthan in India to argue that negotiation of borders is an everyday practice for some. Finally, partition reincarnates itself through border making and border crossing practices in the subcontinent. I examine this in relation to language, literature, religion and nations at large.\n \n \n Rita Kothari is a professor in the Department of Humanities and Social Sciences at the Indian Institute of Technology, Gandhinagar, India. \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Asian Studies Center\n Contact email: asiansc@isp.msu.edu\n LOCATION:JMC Library, 3rd Floor Case Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20170301T210000Z UID:1485291506630@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20170301T210000Z DTEND:20170301T223000Z SUMMARY:Religious Subjectifications from the Experience of the Northeast Japan Disaster DESCRIPTION: Part of the Asian Studies Center Colloquium on Transnational East Asia\n \n "Translation, Mysterious Others and Transference: Religious Subjectifications from the Experience of the Northeast Japan Disaster"\n \n Six years have passed since Northeast Japan was hit by the triple disaster. But people in Northeast Japan have been aching in their hearts, and their indescribable experiences force us to rethink the theory of religious subjectification. The process of religious subjectification sheds light on the act of translation and transference when we think of our relationship with the dead. The dead take on the roles of mysterious others in Lacanian sense in order to construct our subjectivity. This talk explains how the experience of the triple disaster's survivors allows us to find new ways of understanding subjectivity and to theorize the unique characteristics of 'religious' subjectification.\n \n Jun'ichi Isomae is professor at International Research Center for Japanese Studies, Kyoto, Japan.

Halpern and Isaac Record\n \n \n Lunch Provided? : Yes!\n \n Abstract:\n Most of us know that hands-on learning can be valuable. But how can we integrate hands-on experiences with objects outside of very small classes or laboratory settings? In this session of STEM Teaching Essentials, we model teaching with objects by demonstrating two examples that integrate hands-on learning in a lecture or seminar setting. We provide tips and best practices for four stages of thinking about these activities: (1) aligning hands-on activities with course goals, (2) preparing the materials prior to class, (3) how to manage the classroom when you inject material engagement into it, and (4) how to evaluate the success of your hands-on activity.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: CREATE for STEM Institute\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://create4stem.msu.edu/\n Contact name: CREATE for STEM Institute\n Contact phone: 517 432-0816\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://teachingessentials.msu.edu/\n LOCATION:1425 Biomedical Physical Sciences Building END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20170314T184500Z UID:1483540465215-0001@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20170314T184500Z DTEND:20170315T045900Z SUMMARY:High Energy Physics Seminar DESCRIPTION: High Energy Physics Seminars are presented at 1:45 p.m. on Tuesdays in 1400 Biomedical & Physical Sciences Building\n \n Refreshments are served at 1:30 p.m. before Tuesday seminars.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Physics and Astronomy\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.pa.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Brenda Wenzlick\n Contact email: wenzlick@pa.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.pa.msu.edu/seminars/hep_seminars/current\n LOCATION:1400 Biomedical & Physical Sciences Building END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20170314T211000Z UID:1483027462576-0010@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20170314T211000Z DTEND:20170315T045900Z SUMMARY:Microbiology & Molecular Genetics Seminar DESCRIPTION: All MMG seminars are at 4:10 P.M., TUESDAY, 1415 Biomedical Physical Sciences, unless noted otherwise.

Beyond Earth, we'll see how the existence of ice shapes the landscape and the natural systems on other planets and moons in our solar system.\n\n Price: $4 adults, $3.50 students and seniors, $3 children 12 and under\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Abrams Planetarium\n Contact email: abrams@pa.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.abramsplanetarium.org\n LOCATION:Abrams Planetarium END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20170327T000000Z UID:1489426149799-0003@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20170327T000000Z DTEND:20170327T045900Z SUMMARY:Campus Center Cinemas - 'Patriots Day' DESCRIPTION: \n\n Price: All student and guest admissions are FREE!\n Sponsor: University Activities Board (UAB) and the Residence Halls Assoc.\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.uabevents.com\n Contact name: University Activities Board\n Contact phone: 355-3354\n Contact email: uab@rhs.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://uabevents.com\n LOCATION:B Wing, Wells Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20170327T011500Z UID:1489426206628-0003@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20170327T011500Z DTEND:20170327T045900Z SUMMARY:Campus Center Cinemas - 'Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets' DESCRIPTION: \n\n Price: All student and guest admissions are FREE!\n Sponsor: University Activities Board (UAB) and the Residence Halls Assoc.\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.uabevents.com\n Contact name: University Activities Board\n Contact phone: 355-3354\n Contact email: uab@rhs.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://uabevents.com\n LOCATION:B Wing, Wells Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20170327T013000Z UID:1489426105795-0003@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20170327T013000Z DTEND:20170327T045900Z SUMMARY:Campus Center Cinemas - 'Fences' DESCRIPTION: \n\n Price: All student and guest admissions are FREE!\n Sponsor: University Activities Board (UAB) and the Residence Halls Assoc.\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.uabevents.com\n Contact name: University Activities Board\n Contact phone: 355-3354\n Contact email: uab@rhs.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://uabevents.com\n LOCATION:B Wing, Wells Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20170327T022000Z UID:1489426173742-0004@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20170327T022000Z DTEND:20170327T045900Z SUMMARY:Campus Center Cinemas - 'Patriots Day' DESCRIPTION: \n\n Price: All student and guest admissions are FREE!\n Sponsor: University Activities Board (UAB) and the Residence Halls Assoc.\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.uabevents.com\n Contact name: University Activities Board\n Contact phone: 355-3354\n Contact email: uab@rhs.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://uabevents.com\n LOCATION:B Wing, Wells Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20170327T050000Z UID:1472667919552-0071@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

You need to be visually appealing, draw in your reader and convey your purpose and findings in a concise, direct manner. Dr. Tom Wolff, Associate Dean of the College of Engineering, has judged engineering project posters for many years. He will speak about layout, communication and people`s perceptions of typeface and graphic design. Workshop participants will review examples of posters - both good and not-so-good - and consider common pitfalls. Discussion of the function of a poster session as a vehicle for sharing your work with visitors and judges will conclude the workshop.

Hassan and Swarnavel Pillai\n (56 minutes)\n \n From October 2011 to May 2012, a series of public performances were held in Michigan to explore the different ways that Muslims in the U.S. have negotiated the relationship between their faith and society. The result was an extended dialogue with Muslim-Americans on a range of issues, from the wearing of a hijab to the making of hip-hop music. These young Muslim-Americans challenge Islamophobia and pose questions to Muslim communities. "Migrations of Islam" is a documentary film that includes clips from the public performances and interviews with students, artists and experts to present the different ways that young Muslims in the United States have positioned themselves against the extremes of anti-Muslim rhetoric and conservative religious traditions, showing the different ways that contemporary forms of Islam are finding expression in the words, images and actions of Americans.\n \n\n Price: Free\n Sponsor: College of Natural Science, Council on Diversity and Community, Muslim Studies Program\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://muslimstudies.isp.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Salah D.

Italy, Europe and the Refugee Question DESCRIPTION: In this lecture Maurizio Albahari will outline the emergence of the Mediterranean Sea as the world's deadliest international border for refugees, focusing in particular on the central migratory route - between Libya and Italy - and on the military-humanitarian role of Italy's authorities and civil society. He will illustrate how the political and institutional separation between Northern Europe and the Mediterranean (Turkey and southern European Union countries such as Italy and Greece) constitutes state of affairs that can be sustained only at an unspeakable economic and human cost.\n \n Maurizio Albahari is the author of Crimes of Peace: Mediterranean Migrations at the World's Deadliest Border. He is an associate professor of anthropology at the University of Notre Dame, where he is affiliated with the Nanovic Institute for European Studies, the Kellogg Institute for International Studies, the Kroc Institute for International Peace Studies, the Center for Civil and Human Rights and Italian Studies.\n \n Proudly presented by Michigan State University's Department of Romance and Classical Studies, with co-sponsors Center for European, Russian and Eurasian Studies; Muslim Studies & Global Studies in Arts & Humanities.\n \n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Department of Romance and Classical Studies\n Contact phone: 517-353-8350\n Contact email: francese@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.rcs.msu.edu/\n LOCATION:B310 Wells Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20170330T211000Z UID:1483539916118-0003@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20170330T211000Z DTEND:20170331T045900Z SUMMARY:P-A Colloquium DESCRIPTION: Colloquia are presented at 4:10 p.m. on Thursdays\n in 1415 Biomedical & Physical Sciences Bldg.\n \n Refreshments are served at 3:30 p.m. in 1400 Biomedical & Physical Sciences Bldg.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Physics and Astronomy\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.pa.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Shawna Prater\n Contact phone: 517-884-5601\n Contact email: prater@pa.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.pa.msu.edu/seminars/colloquium_2016_Fall/schedule\n LOCATION:1415 Biomedical & Physical Sciences Bldg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20170331T000000Z UID:1485448703722@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Movie / Film DTSTART:20170331T000000Z DTEND:20170331T045900Z SUMMARY:MSU Film Collective: 'NEON DEMON' DESCRIPTION: Nicolas Winding Refn's 2016 film, Presented by Josh Wucher\n \n When aspiring model Jesse moves to Los Angeles, her youth and vitality are devoured by a group of beauty-obsessed women who will take any means necessary to get what she has.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Peter Johnston\n Contact email: john2950@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://filmstudies.cal.msu.edu/filmcollective\n LOCATION:B122 Wells Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20170331T050000Z UID:1472667919552-0075@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

She is a "Bacchus lady", an elderly prostitute who approaches potential clients with a bottle of the popular Korean energy drink Bacchus and the phrase "Care for a drink?" As a young woman, she used to sell herself to American soldiers. Perhaps driven by the painful memory of giving up her half-black infant son for adoption, she is unable to ignore the motherless Korean-Filipino child she meets while visiting the hospital. Despite help from her social outcast neighbors like Madame Tina, her transgender landlady, or Do-hoon, a poor young man with a prosthetic leg, she struggles to care for the child. One day, Jae-woo, a former client, informs her that Song, another regular, has been hospitalized following a stroke. She visits the hospital to discover the man completely paralyzed. Song begs her to end his life, a request that causes her both bewilderment and dismay.\n Director Bio: Director and screenwriter E J-yong graduated from the Korean Academy of Film Arts in 1991. His films include: the debut feature, An Affair (1998), recognized for its visually unique minimalism and the deep emotions it conveys; the joint Korean-Japanese made film Asako In Ruby Shoes (2000); his remarkable adaptation of the classic French novel Les Liasons dangereuses in the Joseon Dynasty-set film Untold Scandal (2003); Dasepo Naughty Girls (2006), a film about high school students with cartoon-like imaginations; The Actresses (2009); Behind the Camera (2012); My Brilliant Life (2014); and The Bacchus Lady (2016). He is well regarded in the Korean film industry for his stylistic choices and diverse array of works that explore the boundary between fiction and non-fiction and carefully crafted visuals and ideas.\n \n The film screening at Michigan State University is made possible by the Korea Foundation, the Korea International Trade Association, the Asian Studies Center and Department of Linguistics and Germanic, Slavic, Asian and African Languages at MSU.\n * This film contains adult content and themes.

Fujitani argues that Lee's film, set in Hokkaido, is in many ways a radical and challenging exploration of key themes taken up by Eastwood. These include violence, law, the outlaw, sovereign power, the right to kill and historical accountability. At the same time, Lee takes up several issues that Eastwood simply leaves as background to his story in particular race, indigeneity and settler colonialism.\n \n Takashi Fujitani is professor of history at the University of Toronto where he is also the Dr. David Chu Professor in Asia-Pacific Studies. \n \n Sponsored by: Asian Studies Center\n Co-sponsors: Asian Pacific American Studies Program, Department of History, Department of Religious Studies, Global Studies in the Arts and Humanities, Japan Council\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Asian Studies Center\n Contact phone: 517-353-1680\n Contact email: asiansc@msu.edu\n LOCATION:303 International Center END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20170410T233000Z UID:1471701467095@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

Shorter's trajectory has embodied continual exploration and unencumbered momentum. His past includes Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers and the Miles Davis Quintet, followed by the formation of his own band, the Weather Report, in the '70s. Today, he is unstoppable. With his all-star band combining John Patitucci on bass, pianist Danilo Perez and drummer Brian Blade, Downbeat magazine's Critics Poll named the ensemble the 2014 "Jazz Group of the Year." It "celebrates humanity's hope for harmony," says The Guardian (UK). An entire generation of musicians sees Wayne Shorter as a humble master who has created a timeless vocabulary - as vital as it is unbound.\n \n \n\n Price: Tickets from $28, Student tickets $18\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Wharton Center\n Contact phone: 5173531982\n Contact email: whartoncenter@gmail.com\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.whartoncenter.com/events/detail/wayne-shorter-quartet\n LOCATION:Wharton Center for Performing Arts END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20170422T040000Z UID:1472667919552-0097@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

DESCRIPTION: Noted author, columnist, and playwright Mitch Albom again takes us into the world of musical comedy with his irresistible farce Hockey - The Musical! Now in its second season after a hugely successful eight-week run in Detroit in summer 2016, Hockey - The Musical! is described by Albom himself as "Spamalot - with hockey sticks."\n \n This is sure to draw theater and sports fans alike. When God decides there are too many sports in the world, he chooses to eliminate one of them - hockey. But that doesn't sit well with fans of the underdog game. So God says that if five pure-of-heart souls can plead their case to save their beloved sport, he'll reconsider. Watch the hilarity unfold as five misfits sing and dance their way toward saving hockey in this raucous, bawdy, foot-tapping musical, an Albom original.\n\n Price: Tickets from $35\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Wharton Center\n Contact phone: 5174322000\n Contact email: whartoncenter@gmail.com\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.whartoncenter.com/events/detail/hockey-the-musical\n LOCATION:Wharton Center Pasant Theatre END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20170825T160000Z UID:1494968253226-0075@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

Frightened and bewildered, he ends up thousands of miles away, in chaotic Kolkata. Somehow he survives living on the streets, escaping all sorts of terrors and close calls in the process, before ending up in an orphanage that is itself not exactly a safe haven. Eventually Saroo is adopted by an Australian couple (Nicole Kidman and David Wenham), and finds love and security as he grows up in Hobart. As an adult, not wanting to hurt his adoptive parents' feelings, Saroo (Dev Patel) suppresses his past, his emotional need for reunification and his hope of ever finding his lost mother and brother. But a chance meeting with some fellow Indians reawakens his buried yearning. Armed with only a handful of memories, his unwavering determination and a revolutionary technology known as Google Earth, Saroo sets out to find his lost family and finally return to his first home.

Our model for the Frontiers workshop series is a successful format commonly seen in Silicon Valley, which combines motivation "big picture" talks with activities designed to foster ideas, create community and allow significant interactions between application/domain scientists and algorithm designers. Based on the successful outcomes of our pilot Frontiers workshops in 2015 and 2016, we anticipate that this annual workshop series will result in fruitful scientific exchanges and new interdisciplinary collaborations from academia (across disciplines), industry and governmental agencies. For 2017, the Frontiers workshop will focus on data-infused computing, which is a new area merging data science with scientific computing. "Frontiers in Data Science and Computing 2017" will be one of the first venues to explore this topic and its high-impact potential in areas as diverse as medicine, astronomy, physics, computer architecture, smart grids and climate change.\n \n \n\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.egr.msu.edu/fcds2017/\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://cmse.msu.edu/news-events/events/frontiers-in-computing-and-data-science-2017/\n LOCATION:MSU Union END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20170917T150000Z UID:1503698672684@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Public Programs DTSTART:20170917T150000Z DTEND:20170918T035900Z SUMMARY:Broad Wellness: Creative Self-Care DESCRIPTION: Transform everyday stress into well-being by moving with beauty at the MSU Broad.

This event is part two of Seeing What Isn't There, a three-part series running throughout September that investigates the many ways artists invoke the invisible, the unseen and the hidden. \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: MSU Broad\n Contact phone: 5178844800\n Contact email: eebam@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://broadmuseum.msu.edu\n LOCATION:Eli and Edythe Broad Art Museum END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20170918T040000Z UID:1503583898642-0002@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20170918 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20170919 SUMMARY:Frontiers in Computing and Data Science 2017 DESCRIPTION: Where: Michigan State University Union Building on MSU Campus.\n \n Register: https://www.egr.msu.edu/fcds2017/\n \n Speakers: Dr. Robert Axtell, Dr. Keiron Burke, Dr. Bo Li, Dr. Domenico Marinucci and more!\n \n The Frontiers in Data Science and Computing workshop brings together visionaries, scientists, practitioners and other stakeholders in computational science (broadly defined to include algorithmic aspects of data science and scientific computing).

Its America Eats project sought nothing less than to sample, and report upon, the tremendous range of foods eaten across the United States.\n \n Camille Begin shapes a cultural and sensory history of New Deal-era eating from the FWP archives, describing in mouth-watering detail how Americans tasted their food. Begin explores how likes and dislikes, cravings and disgust operated within local sensory economies that she culls from the FWP's vivid descriptions, visual cues, culinary expectations, recipes and accounts of restaurant meals. She also illustrates how nostalgia, prescriptive gender ideals, and racial stereotypes shaped how the FWP was able to frame regional food cultures as "American."\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lib.msu.edu\n Contact name: Holly Flynn\n Contact phone: 517-884-0901\n Contact email: flynnhol@msu.edu\n LOCATION:MSU Main Library END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20170921T233000Z UID:1503420113593@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

Nowadays, all of us are drowning in a sea of data. This means that there is a lot of competition for eyeballs. People trying to communicate their messages are doing all they can to find fresh, effective ways to engage and inform inundated audiences. Infographics are powerful tools that, through a careful combination of words and images, grab people's attention and make your message stand out. Infographics are uniquely effective at clarifying and summarizing complex information in all industries-from medicine and science to business and technology-and for all audiences-from policy makers to teenagers. Karl Gude is not only an expert at infographics, he's a passionate and fun teacher.\n \n You will learn:\n · Why making information visual is better than words alone to get your message across\n · Some important steps to consider when planning a visual project\n · Types of data that are best visualized\n · The Dos and Don'ts of visual storytelling.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lib.msu.edu\n Contact name: Holly Flynn\n Contact phone: 517-884-0901\n Contact email: flynnhol@msu.edu\n LOCATION:MSU Main Library END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20170922T160000Z UID:1505227413283@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20170922T160000Z DTEND:20170922T170000Z SUMMARY:Class of 2020 DESCRIPTION: COMBANK Presentation by representative: Dr. Courey\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Class of 2020\n Contact name: Danielle Woods\n Contact phone: (757) 652-8659\n Contact email: Woodsd10@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n Http://\n LOCATION:East Lansing - Conrad Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20170922T173000Z UID:1504892265303@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20170922T173000Z DTEND:20170923T035900Z SUMMARY: RAIND Quarterly Update Meeting DESCRIPTION: Please join us at the RAIND Quarterly Update Meeting on September 22\n \n at the Breslin Center, Rooms B & C \n \n Mingling with hors d'oeuvre & drinks begin at 1:30 p.m., speakers begin at 2:00 p.m.\n \n \n Please RSVP here: http://raind.msu.edu/raind-quarterly-meeting-9-22-17\n \n Questions - contact Angie Kankula | kankulaa@msu.edu (517) 884-8666\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Zoom Conference Available\n \n Join from PC, Mac, iOS or Android: https://msu.zoom.us/j/939448304\n \n Or join by phone:\n \n +1 408 638 0968 or +1 646 876 9923 US Toll\n \n Meeting ID: 939 448 304\n \n International numbers available: https://msu.zoom.us/zoomconference?m=02JUcT--Dw37pabD37Xe4E7RJuRq2xp1 \n \n Or join from a H.323/SIP room system:\n \n Dial: 162.255.36.11 (US West) or 162.255.37.11 (US East)\n \n Meeting ID: 939 448 304\n\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Angie Kankula\n Contact phone: (517) 884-8666\n Contact email: kankulaa@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://raind.msu.edu/raind-quarterly-meeting-9-22-17\n LOCATION:Breslin Center, Rooms B & C END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20170922T173000Z UID:1505136765623@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20170922T173000Z DTEND:20170922T190000Z SUMMARY:Sustaining Community Capacity under Crisis: Flint's Civic Park Neighborhood DESCRIPTION: Speaker: Louise Jezierski, associate professor of social relations and policy at James Madison College, MSU.\n Host: Center for Gender in Global Context\n Series: New Research on Women and Gender Global and Local Perspectives\n Note: Free and open to the public.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://naturalscience.msu.edu/\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.espp.msu.edu/events/calendar/index.php\n LOCATION:303 International Center END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20170922T190000Z UID:1505231374344@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Training DTSTART:20170922T190000Z DTEND:20170922T200000Z SUMMARY:Compass Navigation DESCRIPTION: No cell signal?!

The sessions will first explain what archives are, how they work and the theory and methods behind acquisition, processing and accessibility of archival materials. Participants will then learn how to find archive, to search their holdings and to read a finding aid. Tips will be given on how to request, use and organize material. The workshop will also include a session on digitized and open access archives (including a discussion on the pros and cons of these archives for scholars) and a final session on the ethics of archives, particularly relevant for scholars working in subaltern archives (but also arguably important for all scholars), including strategies for how to partner and work side-by-side with the creators or stewards of the materials being used for research.\n \n The workshop is open to all graduate students who intend to do (or are considering) fieldwork in archives; this opportunity is not limited to history graduate students.\n \n To sign up, please email Jessica Achberger: achberg2@msu.edu.\n \n Other workshops are on:\n \n Monday, October 9, 12-1:30 p.m.\n \n Monday, October 23, 12-1:30 p.m.\n \n Monday, November 6, 12-1:30 p.m.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lib.msu.edu\n Contact name: Holly Flynn\n Contact phone: 517-884-0901\n Contact email: flynnhol@msu.edu\n LOCATION:MSU Main Library END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20170925T160000Z UID:1506024736311-0001@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

While ready-made DH tools are useful, these interdisciplinary habits of mind extend well beyond the life cycle of any particular technology, and are necessary for rigorous and flexible research in digital humanities. In this workshop, participants will: \n 1. review the basic components of experimental design\n 2. develop their own humanities experiment, using a much-loved text\n 3. test preliminary hypotheses\n 4. develop an assignment for use in a course \n \n Part of the MSU Digital Humanities Workshop series, this introductory workshop is open to anyone - students, faculty, staff, the public - from any disciplinary background.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lib.msu.edu\n Contact name: Holly Flynn\n Contact phone: 517-884-0901\n Contact email: flynnhol@msu.edu\n LOCATION:MSU Main Library END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20170928T190000Z UID:1505752455237@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

At the same time, women, African Americans, Native Americans and immigrants-not all of whom were full participants in the American body politic-were encouraged to enlist in the cause.\n \n Propaganda posters produced by the United States government, by commercial lithographers and by average citizens, created a new, modern way of signifying patriotism and the American people. War and Speech provides a window to that moment, framing Americans' ideas about nation and citizenship in this critical historic era.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu/?q=node/483\n LOCATION:MSU Museum END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20171111T190000Z UID:1502293100238@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

Been unable to find the most recent version of a document? Suffered hard drive failure or had your laptop stolen? Been unable to open old files? Been told your data management plan wasn't detailed enough? Forgotten which file was which? Even small research projects can generate enough data and digital material to become confusing and vulnerable to loss. Start your next project (or class) out with a plan to keep your project organized and your data safe, from inception until you are ready to share, reuse or revisit the project whether next month or years from now. This workshop will provide strategies and insights for managing your data for effective collaboration, to meet funder requirements, or to preserve it for reuse or sharing in the future.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lib.msu.edu\n Contact name: Holly Flynn\n Contact phone: 517-884-0901\n Contact email: flynnhol@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://bookings.lib.msu.edu/event/3480836\n LOCATION:MSU Main Library, REAL Classroom (3-West) END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20171115T210000Z UID:1504725326480-0003@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20171115T210000Z DTEND:20171116T045900Z SUMMARY:The 3M Interest Group DESCRIPTION: The Metabolism, Membranes and Metalloenzymology, the (3M) Interest Group, serves as a forum for graduate students, postdocs and faculty to obtain feedback on their 3M-related projects and/or to highlight exciting recent publications in this area.

DESCRIPTION: Part of the MSU Latinx Film Festival\n \n An excitingly fresh take on some classic themes and ideas, "The Second Mother" dissects with both impeccable precision and humor such matters as class differences and family. The film centers around Val, a hard- working live-in housekeeper in modern day Sao Paulo. Val (stunning performed by Regina Casé) is perfectly content to take care of every one of her wealthy employers' needs, from cooking and cleaning to being a surrogate mother to their teenage son, who she has raised since he was a toddler. But when Val's estranged daughter Jessica suddenly shows up, the unspoken but intrinsic class barriers that exist within the home are thrown into disarray. Jessica is smart, confident, and ambitious, and refuses to accept the upstairs/downstairs dynamic, testing relationships and loyalties and forcing everyone to reconsider what family really means.\n \n In Portuguese with English subtitles\n \n \n\n Price: Free\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://msulatinxfilmfestival.com/\n Contact email: clacs@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://msulatinxfilmfestival.com/thursday-feb-1st/\n LOCATION:MSU Main Library - Green Room (4 West) END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20180201T230000Z UID:1516650791383@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20180201T230000Z DTEND:20180202T000000Z SUMMARY:Graeme Wood DESCRIPTION: The Department of Political Science presents a lecture by Graeme Wood.

Mirror-like, it reflects the impact of the violence and impunity that afflict México. Through their voices, we are drawn into the heart of their feelings, steeped in loss and pain, but also love, dignity and resistance.\n \n On a normal day on her way to work, Miriam is arrested on suspicion of human trafficking. While the government reports that a criminal gang has been rounded up, in reality a group of innocent Mexicans has fallen victim to the vagaries of a corrupt system. After her detention, she is handed over to a private prison controlled by the Organized Crime, where she is forced to pay a monthly fee to remain alive.\n \n Adela works as a clown in a traveling circus. Ten years ago, her life was irreversibly transformed; every night during the show, she evokes her missing daughter, Monica. Tempest has screened at more than 60 film festivals worldwide, collecting awards in Berlin, Lima, Havana, Madrid, Cork and many others.\n  \n \n Part of the MSU Latinx Film Festival\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://msulatinxfilmfestival.com/\n Contact email: clacs@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://msulatinxfilmfestival.com/tempestad-mexico/\n LOCATION:The Robin Theatre, REO Town, Lansing END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20180204T000000Z UID:1510926176453@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Movie / Film DTSTART:20180204T000000Z DTEND:20180204T045900Z SUMMARY:As I Walk Through the Valley DESCRIPTION: "As I Walk Through The Valley" documents 40 years of musical history and Mexican-American culture. It is the first comprehensive look at rock music in the Rio Grande Valley. The film is an oral history of the popular music of The Valley told by the musicians, promoters, producers, and scenesters who lived it. The Rio Grande Valley has been called a flashpoint for the creation of Mexican-American Culture in the United States. Roughly 230 miles south of San Antonio, the river delta known as The Valley is a network of cities and roads that sits at the southernmost border between the United States and Mexico. Combining over 100 hours of interviews as well as never-before-seen archival footage and photographs, this documentary tracks the musical evolution of a region that has forged its own unique identity between two countries.\n \n Part of the MSU Latinx Film Festival\n\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://msulatinxfilmfestival.com/\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://msulatinxfilmfestival.com/as-i-walk-through-the-valley-121u-s/\n LOCATION:The Robin Theatre END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20180204T010000Z UID:1503592403889@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

As Nikole Hannah-Jones states in the book's foreword, "despite the fact that black Americans remain at the bottom of every indicator of well-being in this country-from wealth, to poverty, to health, to infant mortality, to graduation rates, to incarceration-we want to pretend that this current reality has nothing to do with the racial caste system that was legally enforced for most of the time the United States of America has existed." The Burden expresses the voices of other well-known Americans, such as actor/director Tim Reid who compares slavery to a cancer diagnosis, former Detroit News columnist Betty DeRamus who recounts the discrimination she encountered as a young black Detroiter in the south, and the actress Aisha Hinds who explains how slavery robbed an entire race of value and self-worth. This collection of essays is a response to the false idea that slavery wasn't so bad and something we should all just "get over."\n \n The descendants of slaves have spent over 150 years seeking permission to put this burden down. As Riley writes in her opening essay, "slavery is not a relic to be buried, but a wound that has not been allowed to heal. You cannot heal what you do not treat. You cannot treat what you do not see as a problem. And America continues to look the other way, to ask African Americans to turn the other cheek, to suppress our joy, to accept that we are supposed to go only as far as we are allowed." The Burden aims to address this problem. It is a must-read for every American.

RECaP's Snares to Wares Initiative works to address the issue of wire snaring through community-based conservation methods. Wire snares pose a great threat to the survival of large mammals in East African National Parks. Through the Snares to Wares Initiative, wires from these illegal wildlife traps are removed from the parks and transformed into art. Two of the project's artisans, Mutalib Ngomojik and Sophia Jingo, are visiting campus from Uganda. Observe their craft in person, and learn about the large installation piece they are making on campus. Talk about the initiative and research with members of the RECaP team and build your own wire creation.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: MSU Broad\n Contact phone: 5178844800\n Contact email: eebam@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://broadmuseum.msu.edu\n LOCATION:Eli and Edythe Broad Art Museum END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20180218T200000Z UID:1503593421597@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

Her dissertation research, funded by a Fulbright-Hays Doctoral Dissertation Research Abroad fellowship, traces the permutations of Zulu martial heritage in the present-day KwaZulu-Natal province from the era of Shaka Zulu (ca. 1816) to the present-day. Taking a bottom-up approach, it focuses on the changing status and symbolism of Zulu amabutho (regiments, age-grades), noting the shifts and changing meaning of these institutions from the pre- colonial era to the present, arguing that the Zulu amabutho shaped, and continue to shape, youth socialization amongst Zulu young men, while also framing public perceptions of the violent potential of these same young South Africans.\n \n\n Sponsor: African Studies Center\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://africa.isp.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Ann Biersteker\n Contact phone: 517-884-2154\n Contact email: bierstek@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://africa.isp.msu.edu/\n LOCATION:201 International Center END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20180315T170000Z UID:1518798930424-0019@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

Lindemann will use this lecture to show how he thinks outside the box to build innovative projects that protect people and property while cleaning stormwater.\n \n Patrick E. Lindemann holds a Bachelor of Science Degree in Resource Development from Michigan State University. He is currently the Ingham County Drain Commissioner, an office he has held since 1993. In his 24 years in office, he has supervised the construction and maintenance of millions of dollars of drain improvements that have opened the way for hundreds of millions of dollars of new economic growth.\n Lindemann is known globally for implementing innovative water management projects. He is a champion of Low Impact Design solutions that manage storm water at its source, using naturalized systems that reduce flooding and absorb pollutants rather than pushing them downstream. Many of his projects have achieved award-winning attention, including pioneering the Tollgate Drain - a series of wetlands, streams, weirs, and ponds that were constructed to solve a combined sewer overflow and flooding problem, while also removing pollutants there by improving the health of the Red Cedar River. His designs have saved millions of dollars while improving the overall health of our environment.

However, the Black Panther's appearance in comics in the 1960s inspired much more.\n \n In this pop-up open house, we explore the origins of the Black Panther, in #52 of Marvel's Fantastic Four and later in Jungle Action. We also explore how the Black Panther has influenced Afrofuturism in comic art and other genres through items in our Special Collections.\n \n From sci-fi fiction to art, Afrofuturism is at one time a creative, a theoretical, and an inspirational force that is actively shaping and rewriting the Black experience.\n \n Come discover the material behind the movie and see why Afrofuturism matters.\n \n For more information, contact Jessica Achberger, African Studies Librarian, achberg2@lib.msu.edu.

The function of a village representative is as liaison between the residents of a rural community and the local authorities at the superior levels. The share of women among village representatives in Poland has increased significantly in recent decades. In 1958, the percentage of female village representatives was only 0.8%, whereas now this percentage exceeds 35.0% on the national level and, in some regions, reaches almost 50.0%. It will be explored what mechanisms lie behind this change: What are its reasons? Do female village representatives differ from their male colleagues in their ideas and initiatives? Does it mean that rural women in Poland actually gained better access to power and local decision-making processes? The presentation is based on a recent qualitative empirical study conducted in rural areas of 10 municipalities located in different regions of Poland. \n \n \n\n Price: Free\n Sponsor: Center for Gender in Global Context\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://gencen.isp.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Emily Khan\n Contact phone: 5173535040\n Contact email: gencen@msu.edu\n LOCATION:International Center, Room 201 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20180330T230000Z UID:1519148648912@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

Her dissertation, entitled "Manufacturing Sameness: Continuities and Expansions of Community Identity in Afro-Chinese Relations," explores cultural identity and community formation through the lens of Chinese nation branding in Africa. The project questions whether Africa's incorporation into Chinese cosmology encourages expansion of community identity beyond sanguine and geographical boundaries to include the "Global South" née Chinese. Prior to MSU, Tara received a MALD in International Relations from the Fletcher School at Tufts University and studied international business at the HEC School of Management in Jouy-en-Josas, France. Her areas of research interest include Afro-Chinese relations, cultural political economy and globalization in Africa.\n \n The talk will present an overview of the scholar's research project which examines the constitutive role of Chinese nation branding in the interconnected materialities of culture, economics and politics within Afro-Chinese relations. The project questions how people in Kenya, South Africa and the Gambia receive and reconstitute notions of 'community', 'self' and 'other' constructed through Chinese nation branding in Africa and how such constructions are diffused through one-on-one interaction.\n \n\n Contact name: Ann Biersteker\n LOCATION:201 International Center END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20180426T183000Z UID:1519930866934@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Academic DTSTART:20180426T183000Z DTEND:20180426T210000Z SUMMARY:OISS Walk-In Advising in Hubbard Hall DESCRIPTION: Do you have any concerns related to your immigration status?

Eighty seven percent of these young people live in less developed countries. The energy and innovative capacities of these young people, especially concentrated as they are in countries whose overall populations are more youthful, offer potential for economic prosperity, if invested in. The unprecedented levels of unemployment and disenfranchisement is a critical challenge, one that is no longer a concern for the future. It is here, staring at all of us in the face and worsening the longer we wait to act. Today, it no longer matters where you live, the burdens of unemployment, migration, rising inequality, and decreasing democratization is affecting all of us. For too many, being young means being unemployed, excluded from decision-making, limited in their access to productive resources such as financing and land - and, as a result, more vulnerable to unemployment, poverty and sometimes violence and acts of extremism.\n \n \n\n Contact name: Alexandra Jarvis\n LOCATION:Kellogg Center, MSU END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20180713T160000Z UID:1530121132169@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20180713T160000Z DTEND:20180713T170000Z SUMMARY:Student Association Military Osteopathic Physicians & Surgeons First General Meeting DESCRIPTION: Price: free\n Sponsor: SAMOPS\n Contact name: Noah Hochstetler\n Contact phone: 3092027515\n Contact email: hochst19@msu.edu\n LOCATION:EL E105, DMC G028, Macomb UC3 208 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20180714T000000Z UID:1504654897394@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

At the same time, women, African Americans, Native Americans, and immigrants-not all of whom were full participants in the American body politic-were encouraged to enlist in the cause.\n \n Propaganda posters produced by the United States government, by commercial lithographers, and by average citizens created a new, modern way of signifying patriotism and the American people. "War and Speech" provides a window to that moment, framing Americans' ideas about nation and citizenship in this critical historic era. \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://msu.edu/msumuseum\n Contact phone: (517) 355-2370\n Contact email: museum@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu\n LOCATION:MSU Museum END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20180714T160000Z UID:1529934221875@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

There is no limit to the ideas that can be explored through drawing or printmaking. The presence of the artist in these processes can be at the forefront or separated by many layers of information. Surfaces can be additive or subtractive. Lines and forms can be ink, paint, graphite, thread, a cut or a tear. The work in this exhibition meets with the act of one material being pulled across the surface of another.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Jacquelynn Sullivan\n Contact phone: 5174323961\n Contact email: scene@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.art.msu.edu/galleries/scene/exhibitions/currently-display/drawn-print/\n LOCATION:(SCENE) Metrospace, 110 Charles Street, East Lansing, MI 48823 (AAHD) END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20180831T230000Z UID:1535046696990@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Athletics DTSTART:20180831T230000Z DTEND:20180901T035900Z SUMMARY:MSU Football v.

Cultivation of yams by rural households serves as food supply, income generation through marketing of ware yams and production of planting material to meet their own needs and generate some income from the sale of surplus seed yams. Despite this importance, traditional yam cultivation is characterized with shifting from land to land every year in search of fertile lands and stakes resulting in soil and land degradation. Yam production has now stagnated threatening rural livelihoods and urban food security. This evaluation study adopts integrated soil nutrient management with a leguminous shrub - pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan) in a pigeonpea-yam cropping system for sustainable soil nutrient management for production. \n\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://aap.isp.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Eric Owusu Danquah and Isaac Osei-Bonsu\n Contact email: owusudan@msu.edu; oseibonsu2@msu.edu\n LOCATION:Room 303, International Center END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20180926T180000Z UID:1536250590906-0003@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Training DTSTART:20180926T180000Z DTEND:20180926T190000Z SUMMARY:MSU Libraries' Digital Scholarship Open Consultation DESCRIPTION: Open Consultation provides a drop-in opportunity to talk with experts and practitioners about your digital scholarship project.

The conference will consider many sides. The Keynote Address, Douglas Massey, Princeton University, will be at 5 p.m. Oct. 11, Kellogg Center Auditorium, and the conference panels will take place October 12-13, Lincoln Room, Kellogg Center.

He is currently working as deputy principal in the College of Natural Sciences, Makerere University, were he is in charge of teaching, managing academic, internship and research activities of the college. Muyodi has been principal investigator in research projects including capacity building at graduate level in demand-driven research projects. In addition, he has also trained fisher communities in post-harvest technologies and livelihood improvement.\n \n About the Talk:\n \n This study was carried out in Lake Kijanebalola, a small satellite lake in the Lake Victoria basin, in 2007 and then in 2015. A total of 14 fish species were identified but catches declined drastically between the two sampling periods owing to intensive fishing pressure. Juvenile fish were concentrated in shallow inshore areas. The water quality changed between 2007 and 2015, with significant increases in temperature, oxygen concentrations, pH and BOD, suggesting that the lake had become eutrophic. There was a significant decrease in fecal coliforms in the water suggesting improved sanitation in the lake basin. Recommendations for management of the fishery and catchment area through community involvement and education have been included.\n \n\n Sponsor: African Studies Center\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://africa.isp.msu.edu\n Contact phone: 517-353-1700\n Contact email: jacks184@msu.edu\n LOCATION:Wells Hall B 342 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20181022T210000Z UID:1536260001267@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20181022T210000Z DTEND:20181022T230000Z SUMMARY:Pregnancy Workshop DESCRIPTION: Obstetrics and Gynecology Interest Group and Student American Academy of Osteopathy present Dr. Chou for an OMM in Pregnancy workshop.

Direct attacks on social justice activists and organizations have become normalized. The conviction and imprisonment of the leading left-leaning candidate has opened the possibility of a successful presidential run by far-right candidate Jair Bolsonaro, who has openly attacked black, LGBTQ, women's and indigenous communities and the press. What is the impact of populist, conservative and white nationalist rhetorics on vulnerable communities? How are those communities and their allies responding? What is the role of a free press in this scenario?\n \n Brazil experts Leonora Paula and Rachel Mourao discuss the current state of democracy, political discourse and polarization in Brazil and draw comparisons to contemporary U.S. and world politics.\n \n \n\n Price: 3f5Free\n Sponsor: CLACS\n Contact name: Laurie Medina\n Contact email: clacs@campusad.msu.edu\n LOCATION:International Center, room 303 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20181023T201000Z UID:1536073524446@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20181023T201000Z DTEND:20181024T035900Z SUMMARY:Seminar by Dr. Adam Lauring from the University of Michigan DESCRIPTION: Seminar is hosted by Dr. Victor DiRita and Dr. Richard Lenski.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Roseann Bills\n Contact email: marshro3@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://mmg.natsci.msu.edu/events-seminars/mmg-seminars-fall-2018-spring-2019/\n LOCATION:1415 Biomedical Physical Science END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20181023T201000Z UID:1536169429837-0008@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20181023T201000Z DTEND:20181024T035900Z SUMMARY:Microbiology & Molecular Genetics Seminar DESCRIPTION: Weekly research seminars hosted by the Department of Microbiology and Molecular Genetics. \n \n All MMG seminars are at 4:10 p.m., TUESDAY, 1415 Biomedical Physical Sciences, unless noted otherwise.

The argument insists that the time when Euro-America provided the theory, while Africa provided a field for data collection, exemplification and conceptual testing has passed. It also involves a claim that the European and North American archive in the field is suffering some enervation, and that African border studies can provide a source of reinvigoration. \n About the Speaker:\n \n David B. Coplan is Professor Emeritus in Social Anthropology at the University of The Witwatersrand. He has been researching and writing about South African performing arts and media since 1976. He is the author of numerous publications, including most notably "In Township Tonight! South Africa's Black City Music and Theatre" (1986) - revised, enlarged and published in a second edition in 2007.\n \n Prof. Coplan is also a specialist in the ethnographic history and performance culture of the Basotho of southern Africa.

Afterward, we'll talk about the morning's finds over a cup of hot, bird-friendly coffee.\n \n This is an excellent opportunity to learn about the variety of birds that can be found at the Sanctuary, and birders of all skill levels are encouraged to join! Visitors can bring their own binoculars or borrow a pair from the Sanctuary.\n \n We encourage visitors to check out our E-Bird list to see the species of birds that have been recently sighted at the Sanctuary. Autumn is an especially good time to see migrating waterfowl who are stopping at Wintergreen Lake on their journey!\n \n Each program runs 9 to 10:30 a.m. Program dates for the next three months are October 10, November 14, and December 12. Sanctuary members attend for free! The cost of attendance for non-members is Sanctuary general admission: $5 for adults and $4 for senior citizens (62+).\n \n The W.K. Kellogg Bird Sanctuary is located at 12685 East C Avenue, one mile north of M-89 and just west of 40th Street.

A lecture about a mathematician's view of canonical forms featuring Harvard professor of mathematics Noam Elkies will begin at 8 p.m. on Dec. 10 in 1300 FRIB Laboratory, 640 South Shaw Lane, on Michigan State University's campus.\n \n In a musical canon-be it "Three Blind Mice" or the climax of a Bach fugue-a melody can act as its own harmony. The task of finding such melodies leads us to consider musical structure from points of view usually associated with science and mathematics, not the arts. The lecture will be illustrated with diagrams as well as a variety of musical examples (including at least one improvised in real time), and will require no technical background in either music or mathematics. Partial financial support is provided by the MSU Office of the Vice President for Research and Graduate Studies.\n \n All Advanced Studies Gateway events are free and open to the public. Parking will be available in the Shaw Lane and Wharton Center parking ramps. \n \n The Advanced Studies Gateway is an initiative at FRIB that brings together researchers, innovators, creative thinkers, artists, and performers from all fields and strengthens ties between Michigan State University and the community. Activities include research workshops as well as public talks, concerts, and special events that are free and open to the public.\n \n For more information about the Advanced Studies Gateway at FRIB, visit frib.msu.edu/gateway.\n \n\n Price: Free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: FRIB Communications\n Contact email: communications@frib.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://frib.msu.edu/gateway\n LOCATION:Facility for Rare Isotope Beams END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20181211T050000Z UID:1533826375425-0002@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Academic DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20181211 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20181212 SUMMARY:Final Exams DESCRIPTION: Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://events.msu.edu/\n END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20181211T050000Z UID:1543796268859-0010@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20181211 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20181212 SUMMARY:Children's Hospital of Michigan Snow Pile Gift Drive DESCRIPTION: Please join the Class of 2022 in donating new, unwrapped gifts for children at the Children's Hospital of Michigan.

In this screening we ask, how does listening and how does hearing, impact our lives? How do we, in fact, listen, and how do we hear?\n Programmed by Lyn Goeringer and Mihaela Mihailova.\n \n Broad Underground is an ongoing collaboration between the MSU Broad, Film Studies program, and Department of English at MSU.

Akhmatova's work is constructed with cinematic care, moving between scenes, time periods and points of view with film-like cuts. Cinematic qualities are embedded in the craft and construction of the poem, and are essential to its success. Many of the techniques Akhmatova used are both poetic and cinematic, and are useful examples of how cinematic devices can be used in poetry.\n \n Monday, Jan. 28: Join us again for a follow-up workshop in which we''ll use a few of Akhmatova's shorter (but still cinematic!) poems as writing prompts. This will be a generative workshop: you'll leave with a few drafts of new poems. We'll think more deeply about how poets can harness cinematic techniques, and we'll have fun. We'll supply everything you need, but feel free to bring your own journal and pen if you'd prefer. \n \n PLEASE NOTE! If you're only able to join us for one workshop, come! You do not have to attend both workshops. They are designed to complement each other, and your participation in one will enhance the experience of the other, but if you can only make it to one, that's okay. \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://poetry.rcah.msu.edu/\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.facebook.com/events/350077158878689/\n LOCATION:Snyder Hall Room C302 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190115T170000Z UID:1545928113235@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20190115T170000Z DTEND:20190115T180000Z SUMMARY:MakeCentral Knit In!

And so he did. In May of 2018, Judge Sachs was awarded an honorary degree of Doctor of Law from MSU College of Law. In between, he has had a remarkable life and career.\n  \n \n Many of his best-known judgments cross a variety of areas of law: fighting against discrimination, providing HIV-positive pregnant women with drugs to reduce the risk of transmission to their newborn babies, setting labor laws in place, helping to overthrow South Africa's statute defining marriage as between one man and one woman, all with the common theme of the promotion of an individual's right to equality and dignity.\n \n He has been heavily engaged in the fields of art and architecture, playing an active role in the development of the Constitutional Court building and its art collection on the site of the Old Fort Prison in Johannesburg. In addition to his work on the Court, he has traveled to many countries sharing South African experience in healing divided societies. He is currently engaged in writing a series of four books on the writing of the South African Constitution and Bill of Rights with his co-author, noted South African historian, Dr. Andre Odendaal.\n **This special Eye on Africa is part of a unique 1-credit course offered during the first 3 weeks of Spring semester January 2019 co-sponsored by MSU African Studies and MSU Law College.

The Double Burden of Malnutrition Exhibit DESCRIPTION: A New Form of Hunger in Africa? The Double Burden of Malnutrition\n Now through February 2019\n Main Library, 4th Floor, West Wing\n \n MSU has contributed to improved nutrition in Africa for decades. Since 1960, and the beginning of MSU's relationship with Africa, the study of Africa's agriculture, food security and food safety have been major tenets of MSU's teaching and research on Africa. The projects undertaken by MSU's Food Security Group, made up of faculty and graduate students from AFRE and other departments, represent an important aspect of partnership with the African continent. The work of the Food Security Group has been supported by MSU Libraries, which provide the materials necessary for research and simultaneously work to document the history of research and partnerships in Africa.\n \n Through a selection of library materials, artifacts, and photographs, this exhibit introduces key concepts toward ending hunger and improving livelihood in developing countries. As part of MSU's Year of Global Africa celebration, we wish to share several of the key issues that a dedicated group of MSU faculty, students and staff attempt to address in Africa to ensure access to safe and nutritious food to all.\n \n Exhibit curated by Elisabeth Paymal, Jessica Achberger and Anita Ezzo; artifacts courtesy of the Food Security Group at Michigan State University.\n \n To learn more about the work of the Food Security Group and food transformation in Africa, please plan to attend the Jan. 24th "Eye on Africa" series lecture by Cynthia Donovan and Dave Tschirley, Noon -1:30 p.m., International Center.

Demographic changes underpin many of the changes, with migration and urban population growth as well as rising incomes.  Even in rural areas Africans are buying and eating more processed foods. How can markets transition to continue to meet the demands with local and regional production, marketing and processing?\n \n\n Sponsor: MSU African Studies Center\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://africa.msu.edu\n Contact name: Liz Timbs\n Contact phone: 517-884-2154\n Contact email: timbseli@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://eyeonafrica.matrix.msu.edu/\n LOCATION:International Center, Room 201 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190124T220000Z UID:1541519540095@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Public Programs DTSTART:20190124T220000Z DTEND:20190124T230000Z SUMMARY:Chinese for Kids DESCRIPTION: Our kids programs are open to children ages 6-9 years and are designed to provide a fun learning environment that focuses on playful interactions in the target language.

Nuclear energy and nuclear reactions are driving these fires, and the only way to understand how they work is by producing the relevant nuclei here on Earth and studying their properties. For this reason, among others, the most powerful rare isotope accelerator in the world, FRIB, is currently under construction in the heart of Michigan, on the campus of Michigan State University. Celebrating the International Year of the Periodic Table of Chemical Elements, this talk will focus on how each of the elements and their isotopes can be synthesized inside stars, and how FRIB will give us unique access to the rarest of these isotopes to help us better understand how the universe works.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: FRIB Communications\n Contact email: communications@frib.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://frib.msu.edu/gateway/events/talk-26january.html\n LOCATION:1300 FRIB Laboratory END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190129T000000Z UID:1546887048296@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20190129T000000Z DTEND:20190129T020000Z SUMMARY:Read a Poet / Write a Poem DESCRIPTION: Monday, Jan. 28: Join us again for a follow-up workshop in which we''ll use a few of Akhmatova's shorter (but still cinematic!) poems as writing prompts.

They are neither novelists nor biographers. They reach for truth, but it's a higher truth -- Truth with a capital T, which frequently isn't true in all ways. As poet Richard Hugo said, "Sometimes you have to violate the facts." He's also famous for advising poets, "You owe reality nothing and the truth about your feelings everything." But sometimes a poet must get some facts right. How do poets navigate what is true and what is not in their search for emotional Truth? What details can they conjure instead of report? At this workshop led by Anita Skeen, Cindy Hunter Morgan and Laura Apol, you'll explore these questions, and you'll have a chance to write your own poems that blend the real and the imagined. \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://poetry.rcah.msu.edu/\n Contact email: cpoetry@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.facebook.com/events/301170453873583/\n LOCATION:Snyder Hall C301 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190220T163000Z UID:1545930035237@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20190220T163000Z DTEND:20190220T183000Z SUMMARY:MakeCentral Quilting Bee!

This often manifests in Africans distancing themselves from such matters of primary concern to the African-American community (police brutality, historic oppression, etc.) while the African-American community has largely been invisible in African centered spaces - including in the Year of Global Africa (despite attempts to reach out).\n \n   Where do these schisms come from? What can we as scholars, activists and global citizens do to not only remedy these schisms, but to forge ahead in mutually beneficial solidarity? \n \n   This conversation will take the form of a 5-6 person panel in which there will be student representatives from student organizations centered on African/African descendant populations. The event will be in collaboration with the African Graduate Student Association, Black Graduate Student Association, Black Student Alliance and the African Student Union. The event is also supported in part by a Year of Global Africa mini-grant provided by the African Studies Center. \n \n\n Price: Free\n Contact name: Shingi Mavima\n Contact email: mavimabl@msu.edu\n LOCATION:Room 303 International Center END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190222T153000Z UID:1550241770445@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20190222T153000Z DTEND:20190222T210000Z SUMMARY:CLACS 3rd Annual Graduate Student Conference DESCRIPTION: Join us in an interdisciplinary dialogue about themes of shared interest in Latin America between scholars from Latin America and the Caribbean and scholars who plan to conduct research in the region.

DTSTART:20190227T163000Z DTEND:20190227T180000Z SUMMARY:: Language is Only the Beginning: How to Develop Communicative and Intercultural Competence in EA DESCRIPTION: It is entirely possible to live abroad in a country where we hardly speak the language and not improve in fluency at all. Even in regard to language-oriented programs, the research is inconclusive about how much proficiency learners can be expected to gain and what factors will lead to those gains. Nevertheless, we firmly believe that a strategic and flexible effort to acquire language while abroad, whether the program requires it or not, can diminish the impact of "language shock" and enhance the overall benefits of the overseas experience. \n \n In this presentation, we will focus on language and culture in terms of dynamic skill sets that will continue to develop during a sojourn abroad rather than static content that must be acquired beforehand. \n \n Presenters:\n \n Dr. Felix Kronenberg is the Director of the Center for Language Teaching Advancement, an academic unit that supports foreign language teaching, research, and outreach at MSU and beyond. He is also a professor in the German department and a national and international leader in regard to language learning technology, gamification and innovative language resource centers. \n \n Dr. Amanda Lanier is faculty in CeLTA and Director of the MA in Foreign Language Teaching, an online program with students and alumni in 30 states and 10 countries that develops master teachers of over a dozen foreign languages. Her research and teaching focus on motivation, identity, culture and other aspects of language acquisition, as well as sociocultural learning processes in online courses.\n \n For more information or to register, please contact Kris Windorski at windorsk@msu.edu\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Kris Windorski\n Contact email: windorsk@msu.edu\n LOCATION:MSU Union - Lake Superior Room END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190227T180000Z UID:1549028490958@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Academic DTSTART:20190227T180000Z DTEND:20190227T200000Z SUMMARY:Zotero Workshop DESCRIPTION: An introduction to the free open source citation management program Zotero.

Dr. Sender is one of the world's leading theosophical scholars. As an international speaker, he has presented programs and retreats in India, Europe, Oceania, and the three Americas. His articles are published in theosophical journals throughout the world, and he is the author of books in English and Spanish. His latest book is "The Evolution of the Higher Consciousness."\n Meditation and the Higher Consciousness (3 - 4 p.m.) \n \n Meditation is a practice with the potential to affect us on the physical, psychological, and spiritual levels. Simple techniques can produce relatively quick physical and psychological effects, such as releasing stress or improving our attention span and power of concentration. However, meditation can be much more than that. In this talk, we will explore how meditation can help us become aware of our spiritual nature, which is the source of peace and harmony.\n Blavatsky's Diagram of Meditation (5 - 6 p.m.)\n \n H. P. Blavatsky was a co-founder of the Theosophical Society, and a pioneer in blending Eastern and Western spirituality. In the late 1880s, she gave her students a diagram of meditation meant to encourage a process of spiritual transformation from the limited perception of our ego (or personal self) to that of the divine self. The diagram offers a comprehensible approach that is not limited to instructions for sitting meditation, but also includes a set of attitudes to be practiced during daily life.\n Sponsored by the Asian Studies Center, Anshu Varna, Center for Gender in Global Context (GenCen)\n \n \n\n Price: Free\n Sponsor: Asian Studies Center, Anshu Varna, Center for Gender in Global Context (GenCen)\n Contact name: Asian Studies Center\n LOCATION:115 International Center END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190311T170000Z UID:1550596800299@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20190311T170000Z DTEND:20190311T180000Z SUMMARY:Jewish Osteopathic Student Association Board Transition Meeting DESCRIPTION: The 2018-2019 JOSA board will be transitioning positions to the incoming board members for 2019-2020.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: student\n Contact name: Ricki L Pad\n Contact phone: 2485150385\n Contact email: padricki@msu.edu\n LOCATION:EL A338 East Fee END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190311T223000Z UID:1549311588811@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20190311T223000Z DTEND:20190312T003000Z SUMMARY:Desires, Emotions, and the Spiritual Path DESCRIPTION: Since uncontrolled emotions and desires cloud our perception, spiritual traditions tend to regard them as a hindrance in the search for truth. Consequently, many religions and philosophies promote the development of detachment and equanimity. Our emotional dimension, however, is an important aspect of our being. Feelings such as love and compassion are recognized as essential for a spiritual life. This program will explore the role of emotion and desire in the spiritual path, as well as ways to deal with conflicting desires and negative emotions.\n \n  \n \n Sponsored by the Asian Studies Center, Anshu Varna, Center for Gender in Global Context (GenCen)\n\n Price: Free\n Sponsor: 341Asian Studies Center, Anchu Varna, Center for Gender in Global Context (GenCen)2f2\n Contact name: Asian Studies Center\n LOCATION:International Center 303 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190312T170000Z UID:1545928166567@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20190312T170000Z DTEND:20190312T180000Z SUMMARY:MakeCentral Knit In!

Dr. Sender is one of the world's leading theosophical scholars. As an international speaker, he has presented programs and retreats in India, Europe, Oceania and the three Americas. His articles are published in theosophical journals throughout the world, and he is the author of books in English and Spanish. His latest book is "The Evolution of the Higher Consciousness."\n \n When faced with challenges in daily life, we respond with physical, emotional or intellectual actions. Although these responses may be appropriate to deal with situations on a practical level, they are rarely able to address the root cause of the problems we encounter. J. Krishnamurti and the non-duality teachings in different spiritual traditions propose that there is a higher faculty in us-choiceless awareness-which can bring about a fundamental change in ourselves and society. \n Sponsored by the Asian Studies Center, Anshu Varna, Center for Gender in Global Context (GenCen)\n \n\n Price: Free\n Sponsor: Asian Studies Center, Anchu Varna, Center for Gender in Global Context (GenCen)\n Contact name: Asian Studies Center\n LOCATION:International Center Room 303 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190312T230000Z UID:1550514633597@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20190312T230000Z DTEND:20190313T000000Z SUMMARY:MSFC Host Dr. Villavicencio DESCRIPTION: Medical Students For Choice present Dr. Villavicencio to present on abortion care and being a abortion provider in Michigan.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: student\n Contact name: Alex Pittman\n Contact phone: 8105136526\n Contact email: pittma60@msu.edu\n LOCATION:DMC G029, EL E105 and Macomb UC4 217-12 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190313T000000Z UID:1550682454721@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20190313T000000Z DTEND:20190313T020000Z SUMMARY:Migratory Poetics and Global Futurisms DESCRIPTION: Vidhu Aggarwal will discuss narrative entropy by looking at both ancient texts, such as the epic Mahabharata, in relationship to contemporary cosmology/technology to get at the condition of perpetual war and perpetual crisis.

Weimar Germany (1919-1933) was an era of equal rights for women and minorities, but also of growing antisemitism and hostility toward the Jewish population. This led some Jews to want to pass or be perceived as non-Jews; yet there were still occasions when it was beneficial to be openly Jewish. Being visible as a Jew often involved appearing simultaneously non-Jewish and Jewish. "Passing Illusions" examines constructions and controversial aspects of German-Jewish visibility during the Weimar Republic, as well as the complex reasons many decided to conceal or reveal themselves as Jewish. \n Lunch will be provided at the discussion.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Yael Aronoff\n Contact phone: 517-432-3493\n Contact email: jewishst@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://jsp.msu.edu\n LOCATION:B-342 Wells Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190319T190000Z UID:1552673750671@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20190319T190000Z DTEND:20190319T210000Z SUMMARY:LGBTQA Resume/Interview Prep-Presented by Ally Detroit Center DESCRIPTION: Ally Financial is presenting three different workshops for LGBTQ undergraduate and graduate students who are planning on job searching or going to a career fair. \n \n Tuesday, March 19 - LGBTQ Resume and Interview Prep: Student Services Building, Room 6. 2-4 p.m.\n \n Monday, April 8 - Financial Literacy Discussion - Mosaic Multicultural Center, Conference Room - 11:30a.m. - 1 p.m.\n \n Tuesday, April 9 - Out at Work: Lunch and Learn: Student Services Building, Room 6, 11:30 a.m. - 1 p.m.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Orpaj Jrenal\n Contact email: oprah@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.facebook.com/events/2354491927894931/\n LOCATION:Student Services Building, Room 6 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190319T230000Z UID:1550435028518@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20190319T230000Z DTEND:20190320T003000Z SUMMARY:SOASM Presents Red Wings Physician DESCRIPTION: Student Osteopathic Association of Sports Medicine presents the sports medicine team physician of the Detroit Red Wings.\n\n Price: Free\n Sponsor: student\n Contact name: Ryan Skowronek\n Contact phone: 248-891-1231\n Contact email: skowro30@msu.edu\n LOCATION:EL E105, DMC G029 and Macomb UC3 209 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190319T233000Z UID:1547490065067@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20190319T233000Z DTEND:20190320T010000Z SUMMARY:Pope Francis & the Muslims DESCRIPTION: Dustin Byrd (Olivet College) will give a lecture on "Pope Francis and the Muslims"\n \n Dustin J.

Masters of the unexpected, the "Ukes" provide pure entertainment, dead-pan British humor and irresistible foot-tapping music. You may never think about music in the same way once you've been exposed to the Ukes' twisted musicology.\n Sponsored by The Doctors Company with additional support from McLaren Greater Lansing.\n Media Sponsor: Michigan Radio.\n \n\n Price: Tickets from $19\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Wharton Center\n Contact email: whartoncenter@gmail.com\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.whartoncenter.com/events/detail/ukulele-orchestra-of-great-britain \n LOCATION:Wharton Center for Performing Arts END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190320T160000Z UID:1550694164406@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Public Programs DTSTART:20190320T160000Z DTEND:20190320T200000Z SUMMARY:Water School: Act-in DESCRIPTION: Join MSU Sustainability and the Post-Landfill Action Network in a day devoted to empowering young people to intervene in a destructive economy of over-consumption, waste and environmental injustice.\n \n Join us the first and third Wednesday of the month as the Water School is in session with a curriculum of social interaction that explores issues ranging from water to environmental sustainability to community.

The steady but significant acceptance of Islam among the region's population increasingly brought the region into a wider intellectual world extending into northern Africa and the Middle East. For many centuries, Senegambian Muslims had been conducting the hajj and traveling to Egypt, Libya, Morocco, Sudan, Saudi Arabia and Kuwait to study Islam.\n \n About the Speaker:\n \n Assan Sarr is an associate professor and director of graduate studies in the Department of History at Ohio University. His research interests include peace and conflict in Africa, land tenure, agrarian change, oral history, slavery and Islam in West Africa's Senegambia region. He is the author of Islam, Power and Dependency in the Gambia River basin and several book chapters and articles, which appeared in the African Economic History, African Studies Review, Journal of West African History and Mande Studies.

These things are not just curious-they have meaning, like grandma's rosary that came with a lock of her hair or dad's pocket knife he put in the same spot on the top of his dresser every night. Used daily for years, they become emblems of the living souls who possessed them. In this workshop, participants will construct containers or reliquaries to house and celebrate these special inherited possessions. The encapsulation of these mementos is a collaboration with the sensibilities of our lost ones, but in the end we choose how these significant objects go on.

In humans, these behaviors are both socially and historically shaped, but are also contingent upon many situational influences, including individual choices. I will explore the sex/gender dynamics, informing the design and embodiment of artificial intelligence and robots, especially humanoids.

DESCRIPTION: This year marks the 150th anniversary of the formulation of the periodic table created by Dmitry Mendeleev. Accordingly, the United Nations proclaimed 2019 as the International Year of the Periodic Table of Chemical Elements. At 150 years old, the table is still growing. In 2016, four new elements were added the periodic table: nihonium, moscovium, tennessine and oganesson. These elements define the current upper limits of mass and atomic numbers. As such, they carry the potential to transform the way we currently understand nuclear and atomic physics, and chemistry. \n \n Questions motivating the search for these systems include: What are the heaviest nuclei and atoms that can exist? Are superheavy systems different from lighter nuclear species? Is there an island of very long-lived nuclei? Can superheavy nuclei be produced in stellar explosions? Questions such as these provide formidable challenges for science. \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: FRIB Communications\n Contact phone: 5173559672\n Contact email: communications@frib.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://frib.msu.edu/gateway/events/talk-30march.html\n LOCATION:1300 FRIB Laboratory END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190401T233000Z UID:1552674284857@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20190401T233000Z DTEND:20190402T013000Z SUMMARY:Pride Month Kick-off DESCRIPTION: Come celebrate LGBTQA Pride Month with us!

Visual art, poetry, text and audio installations celebrate the power of singular and collective voices to challenge injustice, demand institutional accountability and build a better world. A living reminder to each and every survivor of sexual violence that you are not alone, this dynamic space invites interactive dialogue with all visitors, as we consider together strategies to promote institutional change and nurture cultures of safety, compassion, and healing.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu\n Contact phone: 517-355-2370\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu\n LOCATION:MSU Museum END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190416T220000Z UID:1554133483691@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Public Programs DTSTART:20190416T220000Z DTEND:20190417T000000Z SUMMARY:Open Call: 8 Elements of Art and Music: Shape DESCRIPTION: 8 Elements of Art and Music is a hands-on interdisciplinary workshop series where adults can have fun exploring the connection between classical music and visual arts in a relaxed environment.

What if it wasn't a snake that attacked Euridice? What if she didn't die and descend to Hades, but instead the world as she knew it crumbled around her after a sexual assault, becoming her own personal living hell? What can Orpheus do to try to rescue her from a situation she can't find words to express? How can goodness and beauty come out of all this suffering? There is a powerful message of hope and strength in this piece.

Cases discussed include Johannes Vermeer's painting "A Woman Holding a Balance" (c. 1664), Tanizaki's "In Praise of Shadows," Ursula Le Guin's "A Wizard of Earthsea," the silhouette art work of Kara Walker, and the cast shadow image at the conclusion of the MSU Museum's "Finding our Voice" exhibition.\n \n What lessons might this important "shadow work" have for the future of museums, including our forthcoming "Science on a Sphere" installation here at the MSU Museum?\n \n \n \n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: MSU Museum\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://museum.msu.edu\n Contact phone: 5173552370\n Contact email: museum@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://museum.msu.edu\n LOCATION:MSU Museum END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190910T220000Z UID:1567008592477@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

In the end, no prospect of justice or emotional resolution offers itself to Elena as consolation for the harassment and misogynist aggression that she faces throughout the Neapolitan Quartet, particularly in light of the fact that she appears to forgive Donato over time. Through readings of the language and events of the four novels, I will investigate Ferrante's fearless representation of women's sexuality and the violence that they endure from men. This unflinching frankness, I will argue, is the political hallmark of Ferrante's writing.\n \n\n Price: Free\n Sponsor: CERES\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://ceres.isp.msu.edu/\n Contact name: CERES\n Contact phone: 5173553277\n Contact email: ceres@isp.msu.edu\n LOCATION:303 International Center END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190925T213000Z UID:1567522440125@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20190925T213000Z DTEND:20190925T230000Z SUMMARY:Sigma Sigma Phi: Greater Lansing Food Bank Volunteering DESCRIPTION: Sign up will be posted on facebook.

In the 1950s, "worth" was based upon patients who conformed to rigid gendered expectations, held respectable jobs, and acquiesced to medical authority. Notions of worth continue to shape how medical providers understand trans people, although "worth" is now covertly defined as trans people who are compliant, dutiful, and authentically trans.\n\n Price: Free\n Sponsor: Center for Gender in Global Context (GenCen)\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://gencen.msu.edu\n Contact name: Emily Khan\n Contact phone: 3-5040\n Contact email: gencen@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.facebook.com/events/492324004673287/\n LOCATION:International Center Room 303 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20191018T220000Z UID:1569346606155@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

We use them in technology, art, and jewelry. We need these elements to sustain our living bodies. As resources run out, we turn to quests for new habitable worlds to mine. To uncover how the fateful pattern of element compositions came to be in our corner of the universe (or elsewhere), we will need to understand thousands of nuclear reactions in stars and predict their outcome.\n \n Most of these reactions with the mysterious isotopes that live and die inside blazing stars have not been observed yet. But with a facility in East Lansing that will make supernova isotopes into beams, it's only a matter of time before new discoveries will be made.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Robert Patterer\n Contact email: events@frib.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://frib.msu.edu/gateway/events/talk-14december.html\n END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20191215T010000Z UID:1565985264815@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

But DMP requirements are not always easy to understand and apply to a project. This workshop will help make sense of DMPs, survey the data management plan requirements of major funders, show how to use DMPTool, and give participants a jumpstart on writing their next data management plan.

In the first session, RCAH Professor Guillermo Delgado will be focusing on the ghazal form and poets who write in that form. Everyone is welcome to come to one or both sessions. \n \n "(Pronunciation: "guzzle") Originally an Arabic verse form dealing with loss and romantic love, medieval Persian poets embraced the ghazal, eventually making it their own. Consisting of syntactically and grammatically complete couplets, the form also has an intricate rhyme scheme. Each couplet ends on the same word or phrase (the radif), and is preceded by the couplet's rhyming word (the qafia, which appears twice in the first couplet). The last couplet includes a proper name, often of the poet's. In the Persian tradition, each couplet was of the same meter and length, and the subject matter included both erotic longing and religious belief or mysticism."

The second session will be run in a workshop format, with writing exercises. Everyone is welcome to come to one or both sessions. \n \n "(Pronunciation: "guzzle") Originally an Arabic verse form dealing with loss and romantic love, medieval Persian poets embraced the ghazal, eventually making it their own. Consisting of syntactically and grammatically complete couplets, the form also has an intricate rhyme scheme. Each couplet ends on the same word or phrase (the radif), and is preceded by the couplet's rhyming word (the qafia, which appears twice in the first couplet). The last couplet includes a proper name, often of the poet's. In the Persian tradition, each couplet was of the same meter and length, and the subject matter included both erotic longing and religious belief or mysticism."

Presented chronologically, these short films become enmeshed in a complex, ever-expanding network of self-referentiality and reflection. Drawing - and then tirelessly, insistently redrawing - the unstable, jagged outlines of history (his own, and that of his native South Africa), memory, and creative process, Kentridge etches layers upon layers into his monumental living archive - at once universal and deeply personal.\n \n Broad Underground is an ongoing collaboration between the MSU Broad, Film Studies program, and the Department of English at MSU. This year's partnering venue is The Robin Theatre in REO Town, Lansing.

Professor Julian Chambliss leads an open gym in which participants approach comics as a continually evolving archive of the modern urban experience. To explore how comics' special relationship to words and images have helped Americans imagine the city, audiences will create a comic zine that documents their experiences of city life, in conversation with Professor Chambliss's research and via exploration of museum exhibitions, Never Spoken Again: Rogue Stories of Science and Collections and John Lucas and Claudia Rankine: Situations. \n \n Gymnasium is a platform for MSU researchers to share and develop emerging research in conversation with exhibitions at the MSU Broad.\n \n\n Price: free and open to the public\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Broad MSU\n Contact phone: 5178844800\n Contact email: eebam@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://broadmuseum.msu.edu\n LOCATION:Eli and Edythe Broad Art Museum at Michigan State University END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20200219T000000Z UID:1581954065164@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20200219T000000Z DTEND:20200219T045900Z SUMMARY:Muslim Journeys Public Lecture and Book Discussion DESCRIPTION: Yes, I'm Hot in This: The Hilarious Truth about Life in a Hijab by Huda Fahmy.\n \n with Dr. Mohammad H.

Like many celebrated theorems in geometry, it gives a calculable geometric insight on the topology of the space. Normally, the method for solving this PDE is an "elliptic equation" procedure, but I will instead show a heat equation (parabolic) approach to the problem. We will see that the topology emerges in the long time behavior of the heat flow. Further work with this approach leads to results such as the Chern-Gauss-Bonnet theorem, and (almost literally) draws a line connecting geometry and topology.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Mathematics\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.math.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Department of Mathematics\n Contact phone: (517) 353-0844\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.math.msu.edu/Seminars/CalendarView.aspx?month-of=September2016\n LOCATION:C517 Wells Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20200226T230000Z UID:1579291466397@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

We give a necessary and sufficient condition on the stability of global (upper) estimates for fundamental solution of Feynman-Kac semigroup of symmetric Markov processes under the stability of global heat kernel (upper) estimates by bounded perturbations. As a corollary, a weak type global (upper) estimate holds for the fundamental solution of Feynman-Kac semigroup with (extended) Kato class conditions for measures provided the stability of global heat kernel (upper) estimates by bounded perturbations holds. This generalizes the all known results on the stability of global integral kernel estimates by symmetric Feynman-Kac perturbations with Kato class conditions in the framework of symmetric Markov processes.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Mathematics\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.math.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Department of Mathematics\n Contact phone: (517) 353-0844\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.math.msu.edu/Seminars/CalendarView.aspx?month-of=September2016\n LOCATION:C304 Wells Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20200227T180000Z UID:1578671124249@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Training DTSTART:20200227T180000Z DTEND:20200227T210000Z SUMMARY:Introduction to Video Editing in Adobe Premiere DESCRIPTION: Presented by Nick Noel and Alyssa Bradley, this workshop will focus on using Adobe Premier to edit video.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Nick Noel\n Contact email: lepeschk@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://bookings.lib.msu.edu/event/6185457\n LOCATION:DSL Classroom/Lab: (Main Library: 2 West) END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20200227T180000Z UID:1582738893767@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20200227T180000Z DTEND:20200227T190000Z SUMMARY:Math Seminar Series DESCRIPTION: Seminar in Cluster algebras\n Speaker: Nick Ovenhouse, U of Minnesota\n Title: Laurent Expansion Formulas for Configurations of Flags\n Date: 02/27/2020\n Time: 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM\n Place: C204A Wells Hall\n A cluster algebra can be associated to a polygon, where clusters correspond to triangulations of the polygon. These clusters give coordinates on the Grassmannian Gr(2,n). Schiffler gave explicit expressions for the cluster variables as Laurent polynomials, with the terms indexed by combinatorial objects called "T-paths". Fock and Goncharov defined a cluster algebra structure for the configuration space of tuples of flags in a 3-dimensional vector space, which generalizes the one given by triangulated polygons. In joint work with Andrew Claussen, we describe a suitable generalization of Schiffler's T-paths to this case, and show that the Laurent expansions of cluster variables are indexed by these generalized T-paths.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Mathematics\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.math.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Department of Mathematics\n Contact phone: (517) 353-0844\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.math.msu.edu/Seminars/CalendarView.aspx?month-of=September2016\n LOCATION:C204A Wells Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20200227T190000Z UID:1579705929699@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20200227T190000Z DTEND:20200227T200000Z SUMMARY:Math Seminar Series DESCRIPTION: Geometry and Topology\n Speaker: Aleksander Doan, Columbia University\n Title: TBD\n Date: 02/27/2020\n Time: 2:00 PM - 3:00 PM\n Place: C304 Wells Hall\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Mathematics\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.math.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Department of Mathematics\n Contact phone: (517) 353-0844\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.math.msu.edu/Seminars/CalendarView.aspx?month-of=September2016\n LOCATION:C304 Wells Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20200227T200000Z UID:1582738845206@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20200227T200000Z DTEND:20200227T205000Z SUMMARY:Math Seminar Series DESCRIPTION: Combinatorics and Graph Theory\n Speaker: Zachary Hamaker, University of Florida\n Title: Schubert calculus, involutions and symmetric matrices\n Date: 02/27/2020\n Time: 3:00 PM - 3:50 PM\n Place: D227A Wells Hall\n In his "Kalkul der abzahlende Geometrie", Schubert introduced a powerful non-rigorous method for solving enumerative geometry problems known as Schubert calculus. Making this method rigorous motivated a great deal of 20th century algebraic geometry. Since the combinatorics of permutations is central to this theory, combinatorialists have made major contributions to Schubert calculus broadly construed. We will overview some highlights from this field, develop a parallel theory based on the combinatorics of involutions in the symmetric group and conclude by using this work to describe fundamental properties of the geometry of symmetric matrices.

This complex relationship provides opportunities for fresh storytelling, in particular, physics narratives embedded in a wider culture and interdisciplinary explorations. I will also argue that science acting in concert with the arts can deliver benefits beyond science communication: Addressing questions of social justice as influence for a more equitable world.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Robert Patterer\n Contact phone: 517-908-7573\n Contact email: events@frib.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://frib.msu.edu/gateway/events/talk-28february.html\n LOCATION:1300 FRIB Laboratory END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20200229T010000Z UID:1582567976834@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

The Reeb graph is utilized in a variety of computational topology and topological data analysis applications in order to get a lower dimension representation of a structure which maintains topological properties of the original data. Its applications appear in a wide range of research domains, however, to date these applications are generally limited to the computation of a Reeb graph from a single, stagnant space. We are interested in developing theoretically motivated and robust visualizations for time-varying Reeb graphs.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Mathematics\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.math.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Department of Mathematics\n Contact phone: (517) 353-0844\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.math.msu.edu/Seminars/CalendarView.aspx?month-of=September2016\n LOCATION:C304 Wells Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20200309T233000Z UID:1582738425836@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20200309T233000Z DTEND:20200310T003000Z SUMMARY:Math Seminar Series DESCRIPTION: Colloquium\n Speaker: Laure Saint-Raymond, École normale supérieure de Lyon\n Title: Disorder increases almost surely (First Phillips Lecture)\n In the every day life, there are many examples of mixing phenomena : milk and water in a same container will not stay separate from each other, marbles in a bag will not line up spontaneously according to their color, ...

In this gallery experience with education team members Matthew Boyd and Katie Greulich, participants define, practice, and imagine acts of looking that have documented injustice and forged social change. Situated within the Visual Citizenship gallery, participants explore the fraught link between citizenship and spectatorship through close-looking. Throughout, audiences question the role that mechanically-reproduced images -- including photographs, prints, and words -- play in the imagination of community and the performance of civic belonging. \n \n\n Price: free and open to the public\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Broad MSU\n Contact phone: 5178844800\n Contact email: eebam@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://broadmuseum.msu.edu\n LOCATION:Eli and Edythe Broad Art Museum at Michigan State University END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20200319T003000Z UID:1565362808595@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

We show the validity of Wiener-type criteria for hypoelliptic operators with a fundamental solution satisfying two-sided Gaussian bounds with respect to some reference distance. The Wiener condition is expressed, in analogy with a result by Landis for the heat equation, in terms of a series of balayages. As an application, we present sharp sufficient conditions of regularity for a model class of Hormander operators enjoying suitable homogeneity properties. This is a joint work with F. Uguzzoni.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Mathematics\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.math.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Department of Mathematics\n Contact phone: (517) 353-0844\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.math.msu.edu/Seminars/CalendarView.aspx?month-of=September2016\n LOCATION:C304 Wells Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20200321T010000Z UID:1565362941376@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

They play an important role in discovering new physics at high energy collider experiments as well as in our understanding of the internal structure of hadrons. However, up until recently, PDFs could only be determined from experimental data while first principles theoretical computations were not possible. Novel ideas that came along have opened new avenues for ab initio parton distribution function computations. This seminar will present the basic ideas that are underlying these computations and review recent numerical results. \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.nscl.msu.edu/\n Contact name: National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory\n Contact phone: 517-355-9671\n Contact email: nscl.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.nscl.msu.edu/apps/seminars.php\n END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20200604T040000Z UID:1585321433632-0070@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

Does the star collapse to a neutron star, or is it disrupted by a thermonuclear explosion? As it turns out, the answer depends critically on a small number of electron-capture reactions that take place in the star's degenerate oxygen-neon core. Of particular interest are the electron captures on 20Ne, which trigger the explosive burning of oxygen. In this webinar, I will review our current understanding of the final evolution of intermediate-mass stars, focusing on the important role played by the electron-capture reactions. I will discuss recent progress made in constraining the all-important electron-capture rate on 20Ne, clarify the astrophysical implications, and identify remaining gaps in our knowledge. The speaker of this webinar will be Oliver Kirsebom from Dalhousie University. \n \n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.nscl.msu.edu/\n Contact name: National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory\n Contact phone: 517-355-9671\n Contact email: nscl.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.nscl.msu.edu/apps/seminars.php\n LOCATION:Online via Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20200625T040000Z UID:1591897192920-0012@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20200625 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20200626 SUMMARY:Sparty Virtual Race DESCRIPTION: Ready for a fun challenge?

It will be about carbon burning in astrophysics. Carbon burning powers the final millennia of a massive star's life. Type Ia supernovae, the thermonuclear explosions of white dwarf stars and cosmology's standard candles, are ignited by thermally unstable carbon burning. In the deep ocean of accreting neutron stars, unstable carbon burning powers rare, energetic superbursts that take the neutron star's core temperature.

Please click the link below for Zoom information and password. \n \n Tatsuki Kuwagaki from Kavli IPMU will be presenting a lecture titled "Sheaf quantization from spectral network." \n \n A sheaf quantization is a sheaf associated to a Lagrangian brane. This sheaf conjecturally has information as much as Floer theory of the Lagrangian. On the other hand, exact WKB analysis is an analysis of differential equations containing the Planck constant hbar. In this talk, I will explain how to construct a sheaf quantization over the Novikov ring of the spectral curve of an hbar-differential equation, by using the ideas of exact WKB analysis and spectral network. In the construction, one can see how (conjecturally) the convergence in WKB analysis are related to the convergence of Fukaya category. In degree 2, the sheaf quantization associates a cluster coordinate which is the same as Fock-Goncharov coordinate. I will also mention about some relationships to Riemann-Hilbert correspondence of D'Agnolo-Kashiwara and Kontsevich-Soibelman.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Mathematics\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.math.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Department of Mathematics\n Contact phone: (517) 353-0844\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.math.msu.edu/Seminars/CalendarView.aspx?month-of=September2016\n LOCATION:Online Via Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20200908T140000Z UID:1597434447812@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Training DTSTART:20200908T140000Z DTEND:20200908T153000Z SUMMARY:Crash Course in Research Data Management DESCRIPTION: Have you ever lost a project file? Been unable to find the most recent version of a document? Suffered hard drive failure or had your laptop stolen? Been unable to open old files? Been told your data management plan wasn't detailed enough? Forgotten which file was which? Even small research projects can generate enough data and digital material to become confusing and vulnerable to loss.

One can cap off the boundary of F with a disk in the zero surgery on K to get a closed surface F_0. If we know that F is Thurston norm minimizing, we can ask whether F_0 is also Thurston norm minimizing. A classical theorem of Gabai says that the answer is Yes when Y is the 3-sphere. Gabai's theorem can be generalized to many other 3-manifolds using Heegaard Floer homology. In this talk, we will discuss a sufficient condition for F_0 to be Thurston norm minimizing which relates this property to the 4-genus of the knot.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Mathematics\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.math.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Department of Mathematics\n Contact phone: (517) 353-0844\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.math.msu.edu/Seminars/CalendarView.aspx?month-of=September2016\n LOCATION:Go to Seminars Page for Zoom link and password END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20200909T040000Z UID:1596569438923@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20200909 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20200910 SUMMARY:Corn Virtual Field Day DESCRIPTION: MSU is hosting a Corn Virtual Field Day with emphasis on 2020 production issues including tar spot disease, field unevenness and integrated management.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://events.msu.edu/\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.canr.msu.edu/events/corn-tar-spot-virtual-field-day\n END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20200909T140000Z UID:1596569899414@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20200909T140000Z DTEND:20200910T033000Z SUMMARY:Cash Crunch due to Covid-19?

The presentation is titles "On the homology of subword order." \n \n The Zoom link can be found on the seminar page linked below.\n \n In this talk we examine the homology representation of the symmetric group Sn on rank-selected subposets of subword order. We show that the action on the rank-selected chains is a nonnegative integer combination of tensor powers of the reflection representation S(n−1,1) indexed by the partition (n−1,1), and that its Frobenius characteristic is h-positive and supported on the set T1(n)={hλ:λ=(n−r,1r),r≥1}. We give an explicit formula for the homology module for words of bounded length, as a sum of tensor powers of S(n−1,1). This recovers, as a special case, a theorem of Bj"orner and Stanley for words of length at most k. We exhibit a curious duality in homology in the case when one rank is deleted. We also show that in many cases, the rank-selected homology modules, modulo one copy of the reflection representation, are h-positive and supported on the set T2(n)={hλ:λ=(n−r,1r),r≥2}. Our analysis of the homology also uncovers curious enumerative formulas that may be interesting to investigate combinatorially.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Mathematics\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.math.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Department of Mathematics\n Contact phone: (517) 353-0844\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.math.msu.edu/Seminars/CalendarView.aspx?month-of=September2016\n LOCATION:Online via Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20200909T220000Z UID:1599238289821@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20200909T220000Z DTEND:20200910T000000Z SUMMARY:Women's Leadership Institute:Leadership, Equity, & Social Justice DESCRIPTION: This two-hour student, alumni, faculty and staff-focused engagement opportunity focuses on women leaders and their allies working at the intersection of social justice and anti-oppression work.\n \n This event takes place over Zoom.

However, first-principle calculations for nuclear scattering/reactions are still limited to light systems. A method suitable for heavier nuclei would be very valuable in studying scattering/reactions with astrophysical relevance and for the success of the coming FRIB program that will focus on unstable nuclei near drip lines. In this talk, I will present my recent development of such a method (2004.13575 and 1905.05275). It is similar in spirit to the so-called Luscher method, used in Lattice QCD for computing hadronic scattering. The key idea is a computational experiment: realizing the trapping of nucleus-nucleus or nucleus-nucleon systems in harmonic potential well within the ab initio spectrum calculations, and then extracting scattering information from the output. I will discuss the formalism and report encouraging results from my collaboration with ab initio groups on computing neutron--alpha and neutron--Oxygen-24 scattering phase shifts. I will also discuss ways to generalize this approach to the case of inelastic reactions and three-cluster systems, including the one opened up by our recently developed emulator (2007.03635) for scattering.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.nscl.msu.edu/\n Contact name: National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory\n Contact phone: 517-355-9671\n Contact email: nscl.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.nscl.msu.edu/apps/seminars.php\n LOCATION:View NSCL Seminars page for zoom link END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20200915T173000Z UID:1599832982333@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20200915T173000Z DTEND:20200916T035900Z SUMMARY:High Energy Physics Seminar DESCRIPTION: Christian Bauer will be presenting.

Recently, the diameter has been calculated for the longest permutation n...21 by Reiner and Roichman as well as Assaf.

Through a collaborative effort between peers from MSU's College of Music and the College of Arts and Letters, Eric Zheng, a second-year Master of Music student in Saxophone Performance, will present a series of songs drawing upon his musical inspirations as an Asian-American, which reflect music's reciprocal effect on his racial identity. The audience is encouraged to listen deeply and contemplate how their own racial identity has influenced their musical preferences, and vice versa, as part of this shared experience. For those interested, there will be a short discussion/Q&A session to be held afterwards. Registration is required. \n \n Identity Through Performance is part of the Community Open Call, an experimental platform that invites the community to become a central figure in the planning process for the arts and cultural programming offered at the MSU Broad Art Lab.

During this talk I will present an answer and some recent results on this question. This is done by first considering abstract compression operator systems associated with a positive contraction in V and then determining when we have a realization of V in such an abstract compression operator system. It then follows that there is a one-to-one correspondence between abstract and concrete projections, and in particular, that every abstract projection is a concrete projection in the C*-envelope of V. I will then conclude with some applications to quantum information theory. In particular, the study of certain correlation sets. This is joint work with Travis Russell (West Point)."\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Mathematics\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.math.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Department of Mathematics\n Contact phone: (517) 353-0844\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.math.msu.edu/Seminars/CalendarView.aspx?month-of=September2016\n LOCATION:Zoom link provided on Math Seminars page END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20200921T210000Z UID:1600436464133@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20200921T210000Z DTEND:20200921T220000Z SUMMARY:Math Seminar Series DESCRIPTION: Student Number Theory\n \n The speaker is Keping Huang from MSU.\n \n The title of the seminar is "The reciprocity law over function fields."\n \n This seminar takes place online via Zoom.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Mathematics\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.math.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Department of Mathematics\n Contact phone: (517) 353-0844\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.math.msu.edu/Seminars/CalendarView.aspx?month-of=September2016\n LOCATION:Zoom link provided on Math Seminars page END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20200922T123000Z UID:1597768308052-0001@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20200922T123000Z DTEND:20200922T160000Z SUMMARY:Michigan Mass Timber Summit DESCRIPTION: The Michigan Mass Timber Summit is an opportunity to learn about this emerging technology, gain an understanding of the opportunities and challenges and contribute ideas to its future in Michigan through interactive conversation with those currently constructing mass timber buildings.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://events.msu.edu/\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.canr.msu.edu/events/michigan-mass-timber-summit\n END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20200922T140000Z UID:1597434986458@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Training DTSTART:20200922T140000Z DTEND:20200922T153000Z SUMMARY:Prepare Your Data For Upload to a General Repository DESCRIPTION: Sharing your research data is a crucial step in the lifecycle of your project.

Equivalently, the fundamental group is zero or any connected covering space is trivial. However, these notions do not capture the correct notion in the world of algebraic geometry. For example, if X is a Riemann surface then the Zariski topology (the usual topology in algebraic geometry) on X is equivalent to the cofinite topology, so X is simply connected. In this talk, we will introduce a few definitions of simply connectedness in algebraic geometry - each corresponding to one of the equivalent definitions above. We will then compare these definitions and discuss how their consequences differ from their topological counterparts.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Mathematics\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.math.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Department of Mathematics\n Contact phone: (517) 353-0844\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.math.msu.edu/Seminars/CalendarView.aspx?month-of=September2016\n LOCATION:Online via Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20200924T183000Z UID:1600867426202@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20200924T183000Z DTEND:20200924T193000Z SUMMARY:Math Seminar Series DESCRIPTION: Rebecca Willett from the University of Chicago will be speaking.\n \n The presentation is titled "Regularization in Infinite-Width ReLU Networks."\n \n This meeting will take place online.\n \n The seminar description is as follows:\n \n A growing body of research illustrates that neural network generalization performance is less dependent on the network size (i.e. number of weights or parameters) and more dependent on the magnitude of the weights. That is, generalization is not achieved by limiting the size of the network, but rather by explicitly or implicitly controlling the magnitude of the weights. To better understand this phenomenon, we will explore how neural networks represent functions as the number of weights in the network approaches infinity. Specifically, we characterize the norm required to realize a function f as a single hidden-layer ReLU network with an unbounded number of units (infinite width), but where the Euclidean norm of the weights is bounded, including precisely characterizing which functions can be realized with finite norm. This was settled for univariate functions in Savarese et al. (2019), where it was shown that the required norm is determined by the L1-norm of the second derivative of the function. We extend the characterization to multivariate functions (i.e., networks with d input units), relating the required norm to the L1-norm of the Radon transform of a (d+1)/2-power Laplacian of the function. This characterization allows us to show that all functions in certain Sobolev spaces can be represented with bounded norm and to obtain a depth separation result. These results have important implications for understanding generalization performance and the distinction between neural networks and more traditional kernel learning.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Mathematics\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.math.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Department of Mathematics\n Contact phone: (517) 353-0844\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.math.msu.edu/Seminars/CalendarView.aspx?month-of=September2016\n LOCATION:Zoom Link found in link on Math Seminars Page END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20200924T193000Z UID:1600694657158@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20200924T193000Z DTEND:20200925T035900Z SUMMARY:Ecology, Evolutionary Biology and Behavior Seminar DESCRIPTION: Seminar hosted by MSU's Ecology, Evolutionary Biology and Behavior Program online via Zoom.\n \n Dario Valenzano, Group Leader, Max Plank Institute for Biology of Ageing from Cologne, Germany, will be speaking.\n \n The title of the seminar is "African killifishes shed light on evolution and modulation of lifespan."\n \n Contact Andrew Thompson and Ingo Braasch for more information.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: EEBB Program\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://eebb.msu.edu/\n Contact name: EEBB Office\n Contact phone: (517) 432-1359\n Contact email: eebb@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://eebb.msu.edu/seminars2015.php\n LOCATION:Online Via Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20200924T200000Z UID:1599702451133@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Training DTSTART:20200924T200000Z DTEND:20200924T213000Z SUMMARY:Mendeley Workshop-Demonstration DESCRIPTION: This is a basic introduction to the citation management program Mendeley.

One usually expects the answer to be no in an appropriate sense. Thanks to the uncertainty principle, such a quantified non-overlapping theorem would often see powerful applications in analysis problems that have Fourier aspects. Perhaps the most well-known Kakeya type problem is the Kakeya conjecture. It remains widely open in Rn(n>2) as of today. Nevertheless, in the recent few decades people have been able to prove new Kakeya type theorems that led to improvements or complete solutions to analysis problems that appeared out of reach before. I will give an introduction to Kakeya type problems/theorems and analysis problems that see their applications.

His works became central to the construction of Christian thought and identity across the Greek-speaking East and the Latin-speaking West in the Middle Ages. Dr. Kampianaki will explore the reasons why and the ways through which a notable Jewish author, such as Josephus, entered the Christian sphere, while his Jewish origins were still being acknowledged.\n \n \n Theofili Kampianaki is a Research Fellow at the School of History and Cultures in the University of Birmingham in the UK.

One sequence keeps track of the Möbius function at each rank level and the other keeps track of the number of elements at each rank level. The Whitney numbers appear in many contexts in combinatorics. For example, they appear as the coefficients of the chromatic polynomial of a graph and can be used to compute the number of regions in a real hyperplane arrangement. We say that posets P and Q are Whitney duals if the Whitney numbers of the first kind of P are the Whitney numbers of the second kind of Q and vice-versa. In this talk, we will discuss a method to construct Whitney duals using edge labelings and quotient posets. We will also discuss some applications of Whitney duals. This is joint work with Rafael S.

They first arise as interfaces in scaling limits of 2D statistical mechanics lattice models which exhibit conformal invariance. In this talk, I will explain how asymptotic behaviors of SLE give rise to an interesting quantity (multichordal Loewner potential), which connects to rational function, zeta-regularized determinants of Laplacian, and Belavin-Polyakov-Zamolodchikov equations in conformal field theory.

However, a theoretical understanding of their optimization and regularization properties remains elusive. This talk will present a theoretical analysis of several dropout-like regularization strategies, all of which can be understood as stochastic gradient descent methods for minimizing a certain regularized loss. In the case of single hidden-layer linear networks, we will show that Dropout and DropBlock induce nuclear norm and spectral k-support norm regularization, respectively, which promote solutions that are low-rank and balanced (i.e. have factors with equal norm). We will also show that the global minimizer for Dropout and DropBlock can be computed in closed form, and that DropConnect is equivalent to Dropout. We will then show that some of these results can be extended to a general class of Dropout-strategies, and, with some assumptions, to deep non-linear networks when Dropout is applied to the last layer.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Mathematics\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.math.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Department of Mathematics\n Contact phone: (517) 353-0844\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.math.msu.edu/Seminars/CalendarView.aspx?month-of=September2016\n LOCATION:Zoom link provided on Math Seminars page END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201001T193000Z UID:1601299128163@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20201001T193000Z DTEND:20201002T035900Z SUMMARY:Ecology, Evolutionary Biology and Behavior Seminar DESCRIPTION: Seminar hosted by MSU's Ecology, Evolutionary Biology and Behavior Program. \n \n Emma Rosi, distinguished EEB speaker from the Cary Institute of Ecosystem Studies, University of Georgia, will be speaking.\n \n The presentation is titled "Large animals influence biogeochemistry in the Mara River, Kenya?"\n \n Contact Steve Hamilton for more information.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: EEBB Program\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://eebb.msu.edu/\n Contact name: EEBB Office\n Contact phone: (517) 432-1359\n Contact email: eebb@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://eebb.msu.edu/seminars2015.php\n LOCATION:Online Via Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201002T010000Z UID:1601316667855@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

Already, we have used the gravitational-wave data of GW170817 - the first signal from merging neutron stars - to constrain the equation of state of dense matter in neutron stars. More recently, the new heavy neutron-star merger GW190425 has indicated that the gravitational-wave population may include heavier stars not previously observed as galactic binaries. As the mass of the components increases, higher densities of neutron-star matter play a role in the orbital dynamics. I will discuss current methods being used to explore the effect of tidal interactions on the neutron-star coalescence and then translating tidal information from the signal into matter properties in the component stars. I will discuss how these results fit with other neutron-star observations, outline prospects of learning about matter in the current Advanced-detector era, and extrapolate to the potential next-generation gravitational-wave observatories have to map the phase diagram of dense neutron-rich matter.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.nscl.msu.edu/\n Contact name: National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory\n Contact phone: 517-355-9671\n Contact email: nscl.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.nscl.msu.edu/apps/seminars.php\n LOCATION:Webinar ID on Seminars Page END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201006T160000Z UID:1598496262819@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20201006T160000Z DTEND:20201006T171500Z SUMMARY:Distinguished Lecture: Victoria Szabo, DESCRIPTION: Digital Humanities at MSU presents an annual Distinguished Lecture to the community, in which a speaker from off campus showcases their work.

Kurtzer\n "Top-Down, Bottom-Up, Inside-Out, Outside-In: Which Way to Israeli-Palestinian peace?"\n The old formula for trying to achieve peace between Israel and the Palestinians has not worked, and consideration is now being given to new, single-focus paradigms. There is a need for a comprehensive, multi-layered approach, driven by determined leaders.\n \n David Makovsky\n "Bridge or Bypass Road? How Do Peace Moves between Arab States and Israel Challenge the Way We Think about the Palestinian Issue?"\n The Arab Peace Initiative of 2003 was predicated on the view that the best way to provide leverage to the Palestinians was to forestall Arab-Israel peacemaking until after Palestinian demands had been met. Yet, the shifting sands in the Middle East where countries are concerned about destabilization have caused a rethink of the classic paradigm. Can the Emirati-Israeli diplomatic breakthrough change the approach and lead to better results in the Israeli-Palestinian arena?\n \n Dr. Saliba Sarsar\n "Finding Common Ground to Move Toward Peace"\n Israelis and Palestinians have no choice but to keep the door open to peace. The path - our path - will remain challenged and challenging unless we overcome our fear of the other, our fear of the unknown that seems to dominate the best of us. Our obsession with power, resources, and retaliation has taken hold of our soul and twisted our being. Peace is born by preparing for it.

Sagan will be speaking.\n \n The presentation is titled "On a rank-unimodality conjecture of Morier-Genoud and Ovsienko."\n \n This is a virtual meeting that will be held over Zoom.\n \n The description is as follows:\n Let α=(a,b,...) be a composition. Consider the associated poset F(α), called a fence, whose covering relations are x1⊲x2⊲...⊲xa+1⊳xa+2⊳...⊳xa+b+1⊲xa+b+2⊲... .\n We study the associated distributive lattice L(α) consisting of all lower order ideals of F(α). These lattices are important in the theory of cluster algebras and their rank generating functions can be used to define q-analogues of rational numbers. In particular, we make progress on a recent conjecture of Morier-Genoud and Ovsienko that L(α) is rank unimodal. We show that if one of the parts of α is greater than the sum of the others, then the conjecture is true. We conjecture that L(α) enjoys the stronger properties of having a nested chain decomposition and having a rank sequence which is either top or bottom interlacing, the latter being a recently defined property of sequences. We verify that these properties hold for compositions with at most three parts and for what we call d-divided posets, generalizing work of Claussen and simplifying a construction of Gansner.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Mathematics\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.math.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Department of Mathematics\n Contact phone: (517) 353-0844\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.math.msu.edu/Seminars/CalendarView.aspx?month-of=September2016\n LOCATION:Zoom link provided on Math Seminars page END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201007T201000Z UID:1601648810123@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20201007T201000Z DTEND:20201008T035900Z SUMMARY:National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory Seminar DESCRIPTION: Cornelia Hoehr from TRIUMF will be speaking.\n \n The presentation is titled "How nuclear physics can treat cancer - radiotherapy at TRIUMF."\n \n Besides being Canada's particle accelerator centre with emphasis on nuclear, particle and accelerator physics, TRIUMF has a long history of medical isotope production and radiotherapy. Cancer treatment with different particles has been a long-standing commitment at TRIUMF, first with pion therapy and then with proton therapy, for many years operating Canada's only proton therapy facility. To improve treatment further, we are researching and establishing FLASH radiotherapy, where the total treatment dose is delivered in less than a second.

Makers, art lovers, explorers and the community are invited to come together to create a collaborative sculpture. Work with MSU graduate Tassi Miller by virtually directing her as she builds the sculpture over four sessions. Give real-time feedback from start to finish, including choice of materials, how/where to attach, and how to finish(such as paint vs cloth). The final piece will be visually representative of many voices exploring elements of design and collaboration. After the event sign up to receive a kit with supplies to create your own sculpture at home. Registration is required. \n \n The Virtual Community Sculpture project is part of the Community Open Call, an experimental platform that invites the community to become a central figure in the planning process for the arts and cultural programming offered at the MSU Broad Art Lab. This initiative is supported by the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs.\n \n\n Price: Free!\n Sponsor: public\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://broadmuseum.msu.edu\n Contact name: Broad MSU\n Contact phone: 5178844800\n Contact email: eebam@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://50807.blackbaudhosting.com/50807/Virtual-Community-Sculpture-Session-1\n LOCATION:Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201008T010000Z UID:1601316275475@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

This is a variant of the semi-discrete optimal transport (a.k.a. Monge-Kantorovich) problem, where instead of transporting an absolutely continuous measure to a fixed discrete measure and minimizing the transport cost, one must choose the weights of the target measure, and minimize the sum of the transport cost and some given ''storage fee function'' of the target weights. This problem arises in queue penalization and semi-supervised data clustering. I will discuss some basic theoretical questions, such as existence, uniqueness, a dual problem, and characterization of solutions. Then, I will present a numerical algorithm which has global linear and local superlinear convergence for a subcase of storage fee functions. All work in this talk is joint with M. Bansil (UCLA).\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Mathematics\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.math.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Department of Mathematics\n Contact phone: (517) 353-0844\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.math.msu.edu/Seminars/CalendarView.aspx?month-of=September2016\n LOCATION:Online Via Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201008T193000Z UID:1601646333539@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20201008T193000Z DTEND:20201009T035900Z SUMMARY:Ecology, Evolutionary Biology and Behavior Seminar DESCRIPTION: Seminar hosted by MSU's Ecology, Evolutionary Biology and Behavior Program. \n \n Jocelyn Behm, Ecology and Integrative Biology at Temple University will be speaking.\n \n "Human impacts on community assembly: tales from the Caribbean and the epicenter of the spotted lanternfly invasion"\n \n Contact: Dan Turner\n \n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: EEBB Program\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://eebb.msu.edu/\n Contact name: EEBB Office\n Contact phone: (517) 432-1359\n Contact email: eebb@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://eebb.msu.edu/seminars2015.php\n LOCATION:Online via Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201008T200000Z UID:1601904041863@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20201008T200000Z DTEND:20201008T210000Z SUMMARY:Math Seminar Series DESCRIPTION: Student GAUSS Seminar\n \n Craig Gross from Michigan State University will be speaking.\n \n The title of the seminar is "Transform your life (fast!) with the Fast Fourier Transform."\n \n This will be an expository talk, where we'll begin by introducing Fourier series for periodic functions.

This commitment made journalism a powerful social force and an attractive profession to civically-minded persons. However, in the 21st century, journalism has faced significant disruptions, which have exposed journalism's shortcomings and made it a target from all sides. For many, the need for good journalism is profoundly clear, but what constitutes good journalism is much less clear than what it once was. That's left journalism and journalism education at a crossroads.\n \n One of the MSU Alumni Office's long-standing featured offerings, the Coffee with the Profs series highlights research and work done by some of MSU's finest faculty and staff. This lifelong education program is open to all.\n \n There is no cost to attend, but registration is required.

If we know the connections in the grid that we want, how can the voltages at each node be coordinated in a way that makes sure the network stays stable? This is a difficult question, but even knowing the number of ways to keep a network stable can help. In this talk, we will see how to count the number of "stable solutions" using geometric and algebraic methods. These methods will help us obtain recurrences for networks satisfying mild conditions. Consequently, we obtain explicit, non-recursive formulas for the number of stable solutions for a large class of outerplanar graphs, and conjecture that the formula holds for all outerplanar graphs. One of the keys to our results: studying dragons and the havoc they wreak on fictional medieval villages.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Mathematics\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.math.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Department of Mathematics\n Contact phone: (517) 353-0844\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.math.msu.edu/Seminars/CalendarView.aspx?month-of=September2016\n LOCATION:Online via Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201014T200000Z UID:1599338087024-0003@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20201014T200000Z DTEND:20201014T220000Z SUMMARY:MUC Peer Mentor Hours DESCRIPTION: Check in with second years to ask about course work, study tips, outside resources, ways to destress during fall semester, life, and more.\n \n Join Zoom Meeting: https://msu.zoom.us/j/99528252764\n \n Passcode: MUCPeer \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: student\n Contact name: Samantha Perovski\n Contact phone: 586-260-6494\n Contact email: perovski@msu.edu\n LOCATION:Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201014T200000Z UID:1602251265769@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20201014T200000Z DTEND:20201014T210000Z SUMMARY:Math Seminar Series DESCRIPTION: Algebra\n \n Lennart Gehrmann from Universität Duisburg-Essen will be speaking.\n \n The seminar is titled "Gelfand's trick for the spherical derived Hecke algebra."\n \n This is a virtual meeting.\n \n Contact Preston Wake (wakepres@msu.edu) for more information.\n \n Gelfand's trick shows that the spherical Hecke algebra of a p-adic split reductive group such as GLn(Qp) is commutative.

A major contributing factor to this success is that convolutional networks impose strong prior assumptions about natural images-so strong that they enable image recovery without any training data. A surprising observation that highlights those prior assumptions is that one can remove noise from a corrupted natural image by simply fitting (via gradient descent) a randomly initialized, over-parameterized convolutional generator to the noisy image. In this talk, we discuss a simple un-trained convolutional network, called the deep decoder, that provably enables image denoising and regularization of inverse problems such as compressive sensing with excellent performance. We formally characterize the dynamics of fitting this convolutional network to a noisy signal and to an under-sampled signal, and show that in both cases early-stopped gradient descent provably recovers the clean signal. Finally, we discuss our own numerical results and numerical results from another group demonstrating that un-trained convolutional networks enable magnetic resonance imaging from highly under-sampled measurements, achieving results surprisingly close to trained networks, and outperforming classical untrained methods.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Mathematics\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.math.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Department of Mathematics\n Contact phone: (517) 353-0844\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.math.msu.edu/Seminars/CalendarView.aspx?month-of=September2016\n LOCATION:Zoom link provided on Math Seminars page END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201015T193000Z UID:1602250660871@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20201015T193000Z DTEND:20201016T035900Z SUMMARY:Ecology, Evolutionary Biology and Behavior Seminar DESCRIPTION: Seminar hosted by MSU's Ecology, Evolutionary Biology and Behavior Program. \n \n Karina Boege from thevInstitute of Ecology, University National Autonomous of Mexico - Mexico City, will be speaking.\n \n The presentation is titled "Natural selection of anti-herbivore defense as a function of plant ontogeny."\n \n Contact Elizeth Cinto Mejia and Dan Turner for more information.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: EEBB Program\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://eebb.msu.edu/\n Contact name: EEBB Office\n Contact phone: (517) 432-1359\n Contact email: eebb@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://eebb.msu.edu/seminars2015.php\n LOCATION:Online via Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201015T193000Z UID:1602252000617@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20201015T193000Z DTEND:20201016T035900Z SUMMARY:Physics and Astronomy Colloquium DESCRIPTION: Kate Daniel from Bryn Mawr College will be speaking.\n \n The presentation is titled "Dynamical Chaos near Corotation: limits on cold radial migration."\n \n This event is locally hosted by Teresa Panurach\n \n [COLLOQUIA ARE ONLINE VIA ZOOM FOR THE REST OF THE SEMESTER]\n Colloquia are presented at 4:10 pm on Thursdays\n in 1415 Biomedical & Physical Sciences Bldg.\n Refreshments are served at 3:30 pm in 1400 Biomedical & Physical Sciences Bldg.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Physics and Astronomy\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.pa.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Shawna Prater\n Contact phone: 517-884-5601\n Contact email: prater@pa.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.pa.msu.edu/seminars/colloquium_2016_Fall/schedule\n LOCATION:Online via Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201015T200000Z UID:1602682760798@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20201015T200000Z DTEND:20201015T210000Z SUMMARY:Math Seminar Series DESCRIPTION: Student GAUSS Seminar\n \n Joshua Ruiter from Michigan State University will be speaking.\n \n The title is "An algebraic approach to musical scales."\n \n Contact Keshav Sutrave (sutravek@msu.edu) for more information.\n \n This talk is motivated by applications to music theory, especially the construction of musical scales.

This impairs reproducible research. One of the many contributing factors to this situation is uncertainty (1) on how to set up data appropriately for data quality assessments, and (2) on how to efficiently conduct such assessments. This talk will first provide a definition of data quality and illustrate the impossibility of any static approach to assess data quality. Second, an overview will be given on selected data quality frameworks of relevance in the medical sciences to illustrate the complexity of comprehensive data quality assessments. Finally, tools (R, Stata) will be presented that enable efficient data quality assessments to promote harmonized data quality reporting.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Statistics and Probability\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.stt.msu.edu\n Contact name: Department of Statistics and Probability\n Contact phone: 517-355-9589\n Contact email: staff@stt.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://stt.msu.edu/Seminars/default.aspx\n LOCATION:Online via Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201020T150000Z UID:1597430925744@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20201020T150000Z DTEND:20201020T154500Z SUMMARY:Introducing MSU Commons Series DESCRIPTION: These 45-minute sessions around the 4 main areas of the Commons are a great way to gain more familiarity with MSU Commons.

This leaves many systems of interest to nuclear and particle physics intractable for known algorithms with current and foreseeable classical computational resources. By leveraging their natural capacity to describe entangled many-body states, the use of quantum systems themselves to form a computational framework is envisioned to be advantageous. In this talk, I will share a developing perspective on the entanglement structure of quantum fields and discuss implications for their efficient simulation on quantum computational architectures.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.nscl.msu.edu/\n Contact name: National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory\n Contact phone: 517-355-9671\n Contact email: nscl.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.nscl.msu.edu/apps/seminars.php\n LOCATION:Online via Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201020T170000Z UID:1598493865495@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20201020T170000Z DTEND:20201020T180000Z SUMMARY:Special Collections Virtual Pop-up: The Legacy of Frankenstein DESCRIPTION: Mary Shelley's famous creation is a fixture in popular culture, inspiring everything from B-list movies to Halloween costumes.

The key feature of Enflo type is that its definition uses only the metric structure of the Banach space, while the definition of Rademacher type relies on its linear structure. In the joint paper with Paata Ivanisvili and Ramon Van Handel we prove that Rademacher type and Enflo type coincide, settling a long-standing open problem in Banach space theory. The proof is based on a novel dimension-free analogue of Pisier's inequality on the discrete cube, which, in its turn, is based on a certain formula that we used before in improving the constants in the scalar Poincaré inequality on the Hamming cube. I will also show several extensions of Pisier's inequality with ultimate assumptions on a Banach space structure. Some of our results use approach via quantum random variables.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Mathematics\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.math.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Department of Mathematics\n Contact phone: (517) 353-0844\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.math.msu.edu/Seminars/CalendarView.aspx?month-of=September2016\n LOCATION:Zoom link provided on Math Seminars page END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201021T160000Z UID:1601933347730@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20201021T160000Z DTEND:20201021T165000Z SUMMARY:Meditation/Mindfulness with Dr. Taylor DESCRIPTION: Wellness event led by Dr. Taylor for students to learn about coping with stress through meditation/mindfulness.\n \n Join Zoom Meeting: https://msu.zoom.us/j/95525592526\n Meeting ID: 955 2559 2526\n Passcode: COMCIM\n\n Contact name: Jennifer Kang\n Contact phone: 9178032529\n Contact email: kangsuri@msu.edu\n LOCATION:Zoom meeting END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201021T160000Z UID:1602249601752@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20201021T160000Z DTEND:20201021T170000Z SUMMARY:Cell and Molecular Biology Program Research Forum DESCRIPTION: Leah Johnson and Patrick O'Connell will be speaking.\n \n The two presentations are: TBD, and "SLAMF7 signaling reprograms T cells towards exhaustion in the tumor microenvironment."\n \n All seminars will be held in 1425 BPS on Wednesdays at 12:00 PM unless otherwise noted [WILL TAKE PLACE VIA ZOOM FOR THE ENTIRE SEMESTER]\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Cell and Molecular Biology Program\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://cmb.natsci.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Cell and Molecular Biology Program\n Contact phone: (517) 884-5299\n Contact email: cmb@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://cmb.natsci.msu.edu/current-students/research-forum-schedule/\n LOCATION:Zoom link provided on Seminars page END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201021T170000Z UID:1601904256700@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20201021T170000Z DTEND:20201021T190000Z SUMMARY:Sigma Sigma Phi Gleaner's Food Bank Volunteer Event DESCRIPTION: Price: free\n Sponsor: student\n Contact name: Samantha Perovski\n Contact phone: 5862606494\n Contact email: perovski@msu.edu\n LOCATION:Pontiac, MI END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201021T180000Z UID:1597435119772@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Training DTSTART:20201021T180000Z DTEND:20201021T193000Z SUMMARY:Prepare Your Data For Upload to a General Repository DESCRIPTION: Sharing your research data is a crucial step in the lifecycle of your project.

Experimental research on implicit bias and stereotype threat has revealed the powerful influence of negative stereotypes on women and URM people in STEM. This work reveals differential evaluation of women vs. men and majority vs. URM groups, and also shows the influence of a more “chilly†or negative climate for members of groups targeted by stereotypes purporting they are less suitable for STEM. I will also discuss some recommendations for institutional change that can help create a more inclusive and equitable environment for all.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.nscl.msu.edu/\n Contact name: National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory\n Contact phone: 517-355-9671\n Contact email: nscl.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.nscl.msu.edu/apps/seminars.php\n LOCATION:Online via Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201021T230000Z UID:1601317504025@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

Makers, art lovers, explorers and the community are invited to come together to create a collaborative sculpture. Work with MSU graduate Tassi Miller by virtually directing her as she builds the sculpture over four sessions. Give real-time feedback from start to finish, including choice of materials, how/where to attach, and how to finish(such as paint vs cloth). The final piece will be visually representative of many voices exploring elements of design and collaboration. After the event sign up to receive a kit with supplies to create your own sculpture at home. Registration is required. \n \n The Virtual Community Sculpture project is part of the Community Open Call, an experimental platform that invites the community to become a central figure in the planning process for the arts and cultural programming offered at the MSU Broad Art Lab.

By letting one set of vertices be participants and the other set be events, each edge represents an individual participating in an event. These bipartite graphs can be projected into a weighted graph by multiplying the bipartite adjacency matrix by its transpose. In the projection, an edge between two individuals represents the number of times they participated in the same event. We can now ask, how many times do two people have to participate in events together before we can assume they have some sort of relationship?

A key breakthrough this year is that we now know some families of Legendrian links that have infinitely many different fillings. This is due to various work by Honghao Gao, Linhui Shen, Daping Weng, and some people who aren't currently at Michigan State, and the common approach is through microlocal sheaf theory and clusters.

This talk, based on my recent book with the title above, will focus on Noether's broader influence as an international figure in the 1920s. Beyond her immediate circle of students, Noether's courses drew talented mathematicians from all over the world. Four of the most important were B.L. van der Waerden, Pavel Alexandrov, Helmut Hasse, and Olga Taussky. Noether's classic papers on ideal theory inspired van der Waerden to recast his research in algebraic geometry. Her lectures on group theory motivated Alexandrov to develop links between point set topology and combinatorial methods. Noether's vision for a new approach to algebraic number theory gave Hasse the impetus to pursue a line of research that led to the Brauer-Hasse-Noether Theorem, whereas her abstract style clashed with Taussky's approach to classical class field theory during a difficult time when both were trying to find their footing in a foreign country. Hermann Weyl, her colleague before both fled to the United States in 1933, fully recognized that Noether's dynamic school was the very heart and soul of the famous Göttingen community.

That is, on a (possibly infinite-dimensional) manifold M with a group of symmetries G, we look for critical points of a G-invariant functional f. In order to do this, we might first restrict ourselves to looking at the set S of G-symmetric points of M (points p such that gp=p for all g). The principle asserts that if p is a critical point of f restricted to S, then p is in fact a critical point in M. In other words: "Critical symmetric points are symmetric critical points". For example, harmonic functions on a space X are critical points of an energy functional on a space of functions M = {X to R}. To find a harmonic map on X, we might start by considering only maps which are rotationally symmetric. The principle states that it suffices to consider only rotationally symmetric variations as well. This reduces the problem from a PDE to an ODE, how nice! Anyway, the Principle does not always hold, but in some very general situations it does. Let's find out about them.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Mathematics\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.math.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Department of Mathematics\n Contact phone: (517) 353-0844\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.math.msu.edu/Seminars/CalendarView.aspx?month-of=September2016\n LOCATION:Online via Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201028T201000Z UID:1603718769848@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20201028T201000Z DTEND:20201029T035900Z SUMMARY:National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory Seminar DESCRIPTION: Dan Melconian from Texas A&M University will be speaking.\n \n Searching for BSM physics via the precision frontier: [Beta] decay experiments using atom and ion traps\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.nscl.msu.edu/\n Contact name: National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory\n Contact phone: 517-355-9671\n Contact email: nscl.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.nscl.msu.edu/apps/seminars.php\n LOCATION:Online via Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201028T230000Z UID:1601317532818@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

Sometimes a hard drive fails or a file becomes corrupted. But we can also lose files due to bad data management habits, obsolete technology, or, paradoxically, because we have too many copies and too many storage options. It is easy to overlook the digital photos, documents, and other files we create in daily life, in our personal research, and in our citizen science and historian scholarship. This workshop helps participants identify their most valuable computer files and create a plan for backup, self-curation, and preservation. Side effects may include improved ability to find and share files, and more restful sleep at night.

The usual associahedron arises as a special case when the graph is a 2 by n rectangle. Other examples of grid associahedra have been considered in connection with combinatorial properties of Grassmannians and with the representation theory of gentle algebras. The 1-skeleton of the grid associahedron has a natural orientation that induces the grid-Tamari order, a poset with many remarkable properties. I will present a new construction of the grid associahedron as a Minkowski sum of order polytopes of fence posets. Using this construction, I will show that the grid-Tamari order has the non-revisiting chain property.

Although in his early work (1913) Weyl contributed to the later axiomatisation of the concept of manifolds, his own preferences lay clearly in a constructive approach (for a time even an intuitionistic one). Moreover, he saw a basic problem for accepting Riemannian geometry as an adequate geometric framework for a field theoretic foundation of physics. As an alternative he proposed a purely infinitesimal'' approach to the metric -- later called Weyl geometry.

It predictions of the light element abundances of D, He-4, and Li-7 can be compared with observational determinations. Over the last several years, significant progress has been made in the determinations of deuterium and helium abundances and most importantly results from Planck measurements of the microwave background have provided precise values for the baryon density of the universe, a key input used in abundance predictions. Planck data is combined with BBN to test the consistency of the Standard Model. These predictions are also sensitive to the conditions when the temperature of the universe was ~ 1 MeV or ~ 10^10 K. Using inputs from the standard model of cosmology and particle physics yields excellent agreement between theory and experiment. Thus deviations from the standard model such as the number of particle degrees of freedom (often parametrized as the number of neutrino flavors) can be tested.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.nscl.msu.edu/\n Contact name: National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory\n Contact phone: 517-355-9671\n Contact email: nscl.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.nscl.msu.edu/apps/seminars.php\n LOCATION:Online via Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201111T211000Z UID:1604933219545@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20201111T211000Z DTEND:20201111T220000Z SUMMARY:Math Seminar Series DESCRIPTION: Analysis and PDE\n \n Ben Hayes from University of Virginia will be speaking.\n \n The presentation is titled "CAT(0)-spaces associated to II1-factors."\n \n Contact Dapeng Zhan (zhan@msu.edu) for more information.\n \n I will discuss recent joint work with Lewis Bowen and Frank Lin.

With a single valence proton outside of a magic calcium core, this isotope is ideally suited for an in-depth study of the many intriguing nuclear structure phenomena observed within the neighboring isotopes of calcium. We compare the nuclear magnetic octupole moment to shell-model calculations, and find that they cannot reproduce the experimental value of the nuclear magnetic octupole moment for scandium-45. We furthermore explore the use of Density Functional Theory for evaluating the nuclear magnetic octupole moment, and obtain values in line with the shell-model calculations. This work provides a crucial step in guiding future measurements of this fundamental quantity on radioactive scandium isotopes and will hopefully motivate a renewed experimental and theoretical interest.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.nscl.msu.edu/\n Contact name: National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory\n Contact phone: 517-355-9671\n Contact email: nscl.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.nscl.msu.edu/apps/seminars.php\n LOCATION:Online via Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201119T190000Z UID:1604065087365@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20201119T190000Z DTEND:20201119T210000Z SUMMARY:Environmental Science and Policy Program Speaker Series DESCRIPTION: Speaker and presentation topic in the more info link.\n \n Please join us for our annual ESPP Fall Research Colloquium on Thursday, November 19, 2020, from 2:00 - 4:00 PM.

Their activism has been largely erased from the narratives of the women's movement, yet they exerted real power within these movements and exemplified the complex relationships among social justice and the politics of identity.\n \n Dr. Melissa R. Klapper is a Professor of History and Director of Women's & Gender Studies at Rowan University. She is the author of Jewish Girls Coming of Age in America, 1860-1920 (NYU, 2005): Small Strangers: The Experiences of Immigrant Children in the United States, 1880-1925 (Ivan R. Dee, 2007); and Ballots, Babies, and Banners of Peace: American Jewish Women's Activism, 1890-1940 (NYU, 2013), which won the National Jewish Book Award in Women's Studies.

This is the question that inspired John Lucas's The Cooler Bandits (2014), a documentary that follows four friends in four stages of incarceration, struggling to confront their future after twenty years in prison. Lending voice to personal experiences of incarceration, the film encourages viewers to grapple with the inequities of our criminal justice system. Join director and artist John Lucas for a special screening of The Cooler Bandits, followed by a discussion with folks featured in the film. Programmed in partnership with Capital City Film Festival and The Robin Theatre. Registration is required. \n \n Broad Underground is an ongoing collaboration between the MSU Broad, the Film Studies Program and the Department of English at MSU, and The Robin Theatre in REO Town, Lansing.

In nuclear physics, equilibration of mass and neutron-to-proton asymmetries is studied in collisions of atomic nuclei in which nucleons can be transferred between initially isolated nuclei [2]. Nucleon transfer is also expected to be a source of dissipation by transforming kinetic energy into internal excitation [3]. However, since we are dealing with quantum systems there are quantal effects that influence the equilibration process. Among these are the shell effects and deformations. For low-energy collisions time-dependent Hartree-Fock (TDHF) [4] theory and its extensions provide a microscopic approach to study these effects and processes.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.nscl.msu.edu/\n Contact name: National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory\n Contact phone: 517-355-9671\n Contact email: nscl.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.nscl.msu.edu/apps/seminars.php\n LOCATION:Online via Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201201T183000Z UID:1606746589065@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20201201T183000Z DTEND:20201202T045900Z SUMMARY:High Energy Physics Seminar DESCRIPTION: High Energy Physics seminars are presented at 1:30pm on Tuesdays.\n \n All speakers will be online through zoom.\n \n Pier Monni from CERN will be speaking.\n \n The presentation topic is "Parton showers beyond leading logarithmic accuracy."\n \n This event is hosted by Joey Huston.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Physics and Astronomy\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.pa.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Brenda Wenzlick\n Contact email: wenzlick@pa.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.pa.msu.edu/seminars/hep_seminars/current\n LOCATION:Zoom link provided on Seminars page END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201201T195000Z UID:1606745580093@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20201201T195000Z DTEND:20201201T204000Z SUMMARY:Math Seminar Series DESCRIPTION: Geometry and Topology\n \n Christine Lee from University of South Alabama will be speaking.\n \n The presentation is titled "Normal surface theory and the colored Jones polynomial."\n \n Contact Honghao Gao (gaohongh@msu.edu) for more information.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Mathematics\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.math.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Department of Mathematics\n Contact phone: (517) 353-0844\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.math.msu.edu/Seminars/CalendarView.aspx?month-of=September2016\n LOCATION:Zoom link provided on Math Seminars page END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201201T200000Z UID:1606746210514@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20201201T200000Z DTEND:20201201T210000Z SUMMARY:Physiology Research Seminar DESCRIPTION: Briana To & Eran Andrechek will be speaking.\n \n The presentation topic is "The role of E2F5 in breast cancer progression and metastasis."\n \n Via Zoom - contact psldept@msu.edu to join and for the passcode.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Physiology\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://physiology.natsci.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Department of Physiology\n Contact phone: 517-884-5051\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://physiology.natsci.msu.edu/posts-events/\n LOCATION:Online via Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201201T201000Z UID:1606745996182@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20201201T201000Z DTEND:20201202T045900Z SUMMARY:Microbiology & Molecular Genetics Seminar DESCRIPTION: Weekly research seminars hosted by the Department of Microbiology and Molecular Genetics. \n All MMG seminars are at 3:10 P.M., TUESDAY, via Zoom, unless noted otherwise.\n \n Peter Bergholz from DiRita will be speaking.\n \n The seminar is a Faculty Appointment Seminar, and the topic is\n "Landscapes shape the genomes of e.

In particular, we have created a simple activity based on the liquid-drop model which allows secondary school students to explore the uses of mathematical models and gain an intuitive understanding of the concept of binding energy, and in particular the significance of positive binding energy. Using simple computational tools (Excel files), students can perform simple manipulations on the different coefficients of the model to understand the role of each of its five terms. Students can use the spreadsheets to determine model parameters by optimising the agreement with real atomic mass data. This will subsequently be used to predict the limit of existence of the Segre chart and to find the minimum mass of a neutron star. In this talk, I'll present the material/activities we have created so far and I'll discuss my personal experience in the world of outreach.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.nscl.msu.edu/\n Contact name: National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory\n Contact phone: 517-355-9671\n Contact email: nscl.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.nscl.msu.edu/apps/seminars.php\n LOCATION:Online via Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201203T083000Z UID:1606918430128@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20201203T083000Z DTEND:20201203T093000Z SUMMARY:Math Seminar Series DESCRIPTION: (Note the unusual time: 4:30pm Shanghai, 10:30am Paris.)\n \n Applied Mathematics\n \n Ding-Xua Zhou from City University of Hong Kong will be speaking.\n \n The presentation is titled "Theory of Deep Convolutional Neural Networks."\n \n Contact Olga Turanova (turanova@msu.edu) for more information.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Mathematics\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.math.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Department of Mathematics\n Contact phone: (517) 353-0844\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.math.msu.edu/Seminars/CalendarView.aspx?month-of=September2016\n LOCATION:Zoom link provided on Math Seminars page END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201203T160000Z UID:1606142137412@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20201203T160000Z DTEND:20201204T045900Z SUMMARY:Biochemistry & Molecular Biology Colloquium Series DESCRIPTION: All seminars will be at 11:00 am.

An array of many-body methods, combined with growing computational capabilities, have pushed such structure calculations to compute medium-mass nuclei. However, the calculations for scattering and reactions are much more limited, and their synergy with experimental measurements has rarely been discussed. A method that works for heavier nuclei and can efficiently incorporate outside information will be valuable for nuclear astrophysics and the coming FRIB program. In this talk, I will present my research program on developing such a method by using a computer-experiment strategy. I will highlight recent encouraging results on neutron-alpha and neutron--Oxygen-24 scattering. I will then discuss two essential components of the method: cluster-level theories and data analysis tools, their applications within and outside my ab initio method, and their ongoing developments in my research. They will demonstrate the organic synergy of the ab initio calculations and experimental measurements and point out future steps to generalize the ab initio method for reactions and three-cluster systems.\n \n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.nscl.msu.edu/\n Contact name: National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory\n Contact phone: 517-355-9671\n Contact email: nscl.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.nscl.msu.edu/apps/seminars.php\n LOCATION:Online via Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201207T170000Z UID:1605892488921@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20201207T170000Z DTEND:20201207T180000Z SUMMARY:Healthcare Disparities Lecture with Dr. Mieka Smart DESCRIPTION: Dr. Mieka Smart, DrPH, a professor at MSUCHM, will be presenting on healthcare disparities and their impact on public health. \n Join Zoom Meeting\n https://msu.zoom.us/j/91964656148\n Meeting ID: 919 6465 6148\n Passcode: SOMA & PHA\n \n\n Sponsor: SOMA/PHA\n Contact name: Kacie Klott\n Contact email: klottkac@msu.edu\n END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201207T170000Z UID:1607092990102@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20201207T170000Z DTEND:20201207T180000Z SUMMARY:Math Seminar Series DESCRIPTION: Jenny Green, MSU; Corey Drake, MSU, will be discussing their current research.\n \n Contact Lisa Keller (kellerl@msu.edu) for more information.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Mathematics\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.math.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Department of Mathematics\n Contact phone: (517) 353-0844\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.math.msu.edu/Seminars/CalendarView.aspx?month-of=September2016\n LOCATION:Zoom link provided on Math Seminars page END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201207T181000Z UID:1607048135930@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20201207T181000Z DTEND:20201207T191000Z SUMMARY:Electrophysiology & EKG Review DESCRIPTION: Join IMSA & IMC for an EKG review session followed by an informational discussion on Cardiac Electrophysiology with Dr. Mukarram Siddiqui.

This machine collides protons at close to the speed of light, creating energy densities similar to that from a few milliseconds after the Big Bang. At these unprecedented energy scales scientists are able to study the physical laws of nature in new ways, and try to answer some of the biggest remaining questions in physics. This talk will explain some of those questions, the research being done with the LHC, and how close we are to answering these mysteries.\n \n This presentation is part of the Great Lakes Lectures series, online lectures featuring academics from Michigan State University.

This motivates our investigation of the hypertriton lifetime as a function of the Lambda separation energy in an effective field theory with Lambda and deuteron degrees of freedom. We also consider the impact of new measurements of the weak decay parameter of the Lambda. While the sensitivity of the total width to B_Lambda is small, the partial widths for decays into individual final states and the experimentally measured ratio R=Gamma_3He/(Gamma_3He+Gamma_pd) show a strong dependence.

A very natural extension of Stirling permutations are quasi-Stirling permutations, which are in bijection with labeled rooted plane trees. Archer et al. introduced these permutations, and conjectured that there are (n+1)n−1 quasi-Stirling permutations of size n having n descents. In this talk we prove this conjecture. More generally, we give the generating function for quasi-Stirling permutations by the number of descents, which turns out to satisfy a beautiful equation involving Eulerian polynomials. We show that some of the properties of descents on usual permutations and on Stirling permutations have an analogue for quasi-Stirling permutations. Finally, we extend our results to a one-parameter family of permutations, called k-quasi-Stirling permutations, which are in bijection with certain decorated trees.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Mathematics\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.math.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Department of Mathematics\n Contact phone: (517) 353-0844\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.math.msu.edu/Seminars/CalendarView.aspx?month-of=September2016\n LOCATION:Online via Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210120T211000Z UID:1611067123257@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20210120T211000Z DTEND:20210121T045900Z SUMMARY:National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory Seminar DESCRIPTION: Heiko Hergert from Michigan State University will be speaking.\n \n The presentation is titled "A New Generation of Many-Body Methods for Nuclear Structure."\n \n Abstract: Nowadays, computationally efficient many-body methods can be used to perform first-principles calculations for atomic nuclei up to mass A~150. This progress has made it possible to confront modern two- and three-nucleon interactions from Chiral Effective Field Theory with a wealth of experimental data, and provide important guidance in their ongoing refinement. In my talk, I will focus on one such many-body approach, the In-Medium Similarity Renormalization Group (IMSRG). The IMSRG not only offers a means to directly compute certain nuclear properties, but also provides a powerful framework for designing "hybrid" methods that allow us to tackle nuclei with strong collective correlations, e.g., due to intrinsic deformation. I will present IMSRG applications to the first-principles description of (doubly) open-shell nuclei, including candidate nuclei for fundamental symmetry tests. I will also give an overview of new developments that promise to once again increase the capabilities of the IMSRG and related nuclear structure methods in the coming years.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.nscl.msu.edu/\n Contact name: National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory\n Contact phone: 517-355-9671\n Contact email: nscl.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.nscl.msu.edu/apps/seminars.php\n LOCATION:Online via Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210121T000000Z UID:1610576398595@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Movie / Film DTSTART:20210121T000000Z DTEND:20210121T020000Z SUMMARY:I Am Not Your Negro (Five Nights Toward Freedom: MLK Commemorative Film Series) DESCRIPTION: Based on James Baldwin's personal account of the live and successive assassinations of his friends Medgar Evers, Malcolm X and Martin Luther King, Jr, the film tells a journey into black history that connects the past of the Civil Rights movement to the present of #BlackLivesMatter.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lib.msu.edu\n Contact name: Holly Flynn\n Contact phone: 517-884-0901\n Contact email: flynnhol@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://bookings.lib.msu.edu/event/7431550\n LOCATION:Online END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210121T160000Z UID:1611065950758@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20210121T160000Z DTEND:20210122T045900Z SUMMARY:Biochemistry & Molecular Biology Colloquium Series DESCRIPTION: Andrew Olive from MSU will be speaking.\n \n The presentation is titled "Dissecting IFN-gamma-mediated responses in macrophages to understand protection against chronic infections."\n \n This event is hosted by the BMB seminar committee.\n \n All seminars will be at 11:00 am.

We show that the resulting standardized distributions are often asymptotically normal. However, in certain regimes, we must introduce a new, closed family of continuous probability distributions called DUSTPAN distributions which simultaneously generalize the Irwin-Hall and normal distributions. In the case of forests, we use graph-theoretic statistics like height and elevation to completely determine the precise limit laws. This leads to some natural open questions about the distribution of the height of such forests.

By studying wild ramification, we hope to understand the mysterious phenomenon of the defect (or ramification deficiency) unique to the positive residue characteristic case and is one of the main obstacles in obtaining resolution of singularities. Extensions of degree p in residue characteristic p>0 are building blocks of the general case. We present a generalization of ramification invariants for such extensions. These results enable us to construct an upper ramification filtration of the absolute Galois group of Henselian valuation fields (joint with K.Kato).\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Mathematics\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.math.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Department of Mathematics\n Contact phone: (517) 353-0844\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.math.msu.edu/Seminars/CalendarView.aspx?month-of=September2016\n LOCATION:Online via Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210127T210000Z UID:1611326652512@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20210127T210000Z DTEND:20210127T220000Z SUMMARY:Math Seminar Series DESCRIPTION: Student Geometry/Topology\n \n Keshav Sutrave, Michigan State University, will be speaking.\n \n The title is "An intro to Riemann surfaces: What your complex analysis prof. doesn't want you to know."\n \n Contact Danika Van Niel (vannield@msu.edu) for more information.\n \n Riemann surfaces blend together complex analysis, geometry, and topology (and then eventually connect to PDE's, algebraic geometry & number theory, and probably everything else).

The deep approximation is to approximate a function by compositions of many layers of simple functions, that can be viewed as a series of nested feature extractors. The key idea of deep learning network is to convert layers of compositions to layers of tuneable parameters that can be adjusted through a learning process, so that it achieves a good approximation with respect to the input data. In this talk, we shall discuss mathematical theory behind this new approach and approximation rate of deep network; how this new approach differs from the classic approximation theory, and how this new theory can be used to understand and design deep learning network.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Mathematics\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.math.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Department of Mathematics\n Contact phone: (517) 353-0844\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.math.msu.edu/Seminars/CalendarView.aspx?month-of=September2016\n LOCATION:Online via Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210128T160000Z UID:1611325160566@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20210128T160000Z DTEND:20210129T045900Z SUMMARY:Biochemistry & Molecular Biology Colloquium Series DESCRIPTION: Nichole Reisdorph, U Colorado Anschutz, will be speaking.\n \n The presentation is titled "Nutrimetabolomics reveals small molecule-associated changes following DASH- and Mediterranean- dietary interventions."\n \n The event is hosted by Quinn/Jones.\n \n All seminars will be at 11:00 am.

In August 2017, the observation of the kilonova light curve, an electromagnetic transient produced by the radioactive decay of r-process nuclei synthesized during the merger of two neutron stars, marked the beginning of a new era for r-process studies where nucleosynthesis predictions can be directly confronted with astronomical observations. In order to extract information about the ejecta composition producing such light curves, accurate nuclear astrophysics simulations are required. In particular, the modeling of nuclear structure properties of neutron-rich nuclei and related sensitivity studies addressing the impact of theoretical uncertainties are crucial ingredients to properly understand the nucleosynthesis of heavy elements in the universe. In this talk, I will present some recent network calculations based on nuclear input obtained within the Density Functional Theory (DFT) framework.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.nscl.msu.edu/\n Contact name: National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory\n Contact phone: 517-355-9671\n Contact email: nscl.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.nscl.msu.edu/apps/seminars.php\n LOCATION:Online via Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210129T220000Z UID:1611672142469@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20210129T220000Z DTEND:20210129T230000Z SUMMARY:Math Seminar Series DESCRIPTION: Student Number Theory\n \n Zheng Xiao, MSU, will be speaking.\n \n The presentation is titled "ef Theorem, discriminant and different in function fields."\n \n Contact Zheng Xiao (xiaozhen@msu.edu) for more information.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Mathematics\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.math.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Department of Mathematics\n Contact phone: (517) 353-0844\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.math.msu.edu/Seminars/CalendarView.aspx?month-of=September2016\n LOCATION:Online via Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210130T180000Z UID:1609190079237@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Public Programs DTSTART:20210130T180000Z DTEND:20210130T193000Z SUMMARY:Design Workshop: Hand Lettered Snail Mail w/ Sara Pulver DESCRIPTION: Resolve to send more mail in the new year!

But DMP requirements are not always easy to understand and apply to a project. This workshop will help make sense of DMPs, survey the data management plan requirements of major funders, show how to use DMPTool, and give participants a jumpstart on writing their next data management plan.

Only electron flavor neutrinos and antineutrinos modify the composition of the ejecta and thus directly affect the synthesis of heavy elements. Instabilities that cause rapid mixing of neutrino flavor are likely ubiquitous in mergers, but are poorly understood and are absent from global simulations. I will present the first (local) three-dimensional simulations of this instability using the new open-source particle-in-cell neutrino quantum kinetics code Emu. I will demonstrate that the growth phase of the instability matches theoretical predictions, describe abundances of each neutrino species after the instability saturates, and discuss the implications for nucleosynthesis in neutron star mergers.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.nscl.msu.edu/\n Contact name: National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory\n Contact phone: 517-355-9671\n Contact email: nscl.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.nscl.msu.edu/apps/seminars.php\n LOCATION:Online via Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210202T173000Z UID:1610737519979@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Public Programs DTSTART:20210202T173000Z DTEND:20210202T183000Z SUMMARY:Assembling an Elephant - Live Craft-along with the MSU Museum DESCRIPTION: Curious about nature's gentle giants?

The goal of explicit class field theory is to describe the abelian extensions of a ground number field via analytic means intrinsic to the ground field. Meanwhile, there is an abundance of conjectures on the special values of L-functions at certain integer points.

It is a benchmark domain for a rich variety of calculations including time-dependent Hartree-Fock (TDHF) and density functional theory (DFT). One difficulty in studying these nuclei is the low formation probability. There is limited reliability in models to predict the outcome of superheavy particle formation due to the significantly large number of degrees of freedom. The fusion-fission process is a key reaction to access heavy element formation.

The analogues of this notion in multilinear algebra - e.g., what is the "rank" of an m x n x p array of numbers? - are much less well-understood, and are often thought of as of niche interest. At least, that's how I was brought up to think of them, until Terry Tao explained to me that the resolution of the cap set conjecture by Croot, Lev, Pach, Gijswijt and myself really made use of these ideas! In fact, these notions are of great current interest in a wide range of mathematical subjects at the moment! Issues about "higher rank" arise in complexity theory, data science, geometric combinatorics, additive number theory, quantum mechanics, and commutative algebra - I will manage to say something about some to-be-specified proper subset of these topics, and am happy to chat afterwards about the others.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Mathematics\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.math.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Department of Mathematics\n Contact phone: (517) 353-0844\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.math.msu.edu/Seminars/CalendarView.aspx?month-of=September2016\n LOCATION:Online via Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210210T150000Z UID:1612193677839@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Training DTSTART:20210210T150000Z DTEND:20210210T163000Z SUMMARY:Tool Time for Love Data Week DESCRIPTION: It's Love Data Week!\n \n Join us to learn about about three powerful tools to analyze and clean your data.

Fixing a triangulation of a polygon, the length of any diagonal can be expressed (using Ptolemy's theorem) as a Laurent polynomial in the lengths of diagonals in the triangulation. There is a combinatorial description of the terms in this Laurent polynomial due to Schiffler, in terms of "T-paths". Recently, Penner and Zeitlin constructed a super-algebra from a triangulation, and an analogue of the Ptolemy relation in this situation. I will describe a generalization of "T-paths" which enumerate the terms in the corresponding super Laurent polynomials.

The X-ray burst, superburst, and crust cooling episodes that several such stars go through provide signatures of the neutron star outer layers' thermal and compositional structure, along with bulk properties of the star. Interpreting these signatures requires model-observation comparisons. Meanwhile, the astrophysics model calculation results can be sensitive to the properties of the hundreds of atomic nuclei found near the neutron star surface.

These models belong to the class of Consensus-Based Optimization methods. In fact, particles move over the manifold driven by a drift towards an instantaneous consensus point, computed as a combination of the particle locations weighted by the cost function according to Laplace's principle. The consensus point represents an approximation to a global minimizer. The dynamics is further perturbed by a random vector field to favor exploration, whose variance is a function of the distance of the particles to the consensus point. In particular, as soon as the consensus is reached, then the stochastic component vanishes.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Mathematics\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.math.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Department of Mathematics\n Contact phone: (517) 353-0844\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.math.msu.edu/Seminars/CalendarView.aspx?month-of=September2016\n LOCATION:Online via Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210211T203000Z UID:1612535038625@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20210211T203000Z DTEND:20210212T045900Z SUMMARY:Ecology, Evolutionary Biology and Behavior Seminar DESCRIPTION: Seminar hosted by MSU's Ecology, Evolutionary Biology and Behavior Program.\n \n The presentation is titled "Integrative biodiversity science for the anthropocene."\n \n Andy Gonzalez, Plant Biology, McGill University, will be speaking.\n \n The event is hosted by Lars Brudvig.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: EEBB Program\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://eebb.msu.edu/\n Contact name: EEBB Office\n Contact phone: (517) 432-1359\n Contact email: eebb@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://eebb.msu.edu/seminars2015.php\n LOCATION:Online via Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210212T000000Z UID:1610577016175@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20210212T000000Z DTEND:20210212T010000Z SUMMARY:Editing the human genome DESCRIPTION: This presentation is part of the Great Lakes Lectures series, online lectures featuring academics from Michigan State University.

Sometimes a hard drive fails or a file becomes corrupted. But we can also lose files due to bad data management habits, obsolete technology, or, paradoxically, because we have too many copies and too many storage options. It is easy to overlook the digital photos, documents, and other files we create in daily life, in our personal research, and in our citizen science and historian scholarship. This workshop helps participants identify their most valuable computer files and create a plan for backup, self-curation, and preservation. Side effects may include improved ability to find and share files, and more restful sleep at night.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lib.msu.edu\n Contact name: Holly Flynn\n Contact phone: 517-884-0901\n Contact email: flynnhol@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://bookings.lib.msu.edu/event/7370337\n LOCATION:Online END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210212T160000Z UID:1613054559235@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20210212T160000Z DTEND:20210212T170000Z SUMMARY:Math Seminar Series DESCRIPTION: Mathematics Education Colloquium Series\n Patricio Herbst, University of Michigan; and Arthur Bakker, Freudenthal Institute, Utrecht University, the Netherlands; will be speaking.\n \n The presentation is titled "Journal for Research in Mathematics Education and Educational Studies in Mathematics: Perspectives from the Editors."\n \n Contact Lisa Keller (kellerl@msu.edu) for more information.\n \n In this talk we will share the priorities that animate each editorial team's approach to handling articles as well as writing editorial essays.

Later, water waves, which have a free boundary at the air interface, played a central role in the work of Poisson, Cauchy, Stokes, Levi-Civita and many others. In the last quarter century it has become a particularly active mathematical research area. I will limit my discussion to classical 2D traveling water waves with vorticity. By means of local and global bifurcation theory using topological degree, we now know that there exist many such waves. They are exact smooth solutions of the Euler equations with the physical boundary conditions. Numerical computations provide insight into their properties.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Mathematics\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.math.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Department of Mathematics\n Contact phone: (517) 353-0844\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.math.msu.edu/Seminars/CalendarView.aspx?month-of=September2016\n LOCATION:Online via Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210216T211000Z UID:1613140410947@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20210216T211000Z DTEND:20210217T045900Z SUMMARY:Physical Chemistry Seminar DESCRIPTION: Timothe Melin from Michigan State University will be presenting.\n \n The seminar is hosted by Professor Angela Wilson.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Chemistry Building\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.chemistry.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Undergraduate Office/General Chemistry Office\n Contact phone: 517-353-1135\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.chemistry.msu.edu/colloquia-and-seminars/\n LOCATION:Online via Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210217T000000Z UID:1611280034693@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20210217T000000Z DTEND:20210217T020000Z SUMMARY:Encompass Series Celebrating Black History Month: Trapped Trauma: The Art of Protest DESCRIPTION: The generational trauma throughout Black history has contributed to the America we know today.

Interesting counting questions immediately arise: How many orbits are there? What are their sizes? What is the period of the map if it's invertible? Are there any interesting statistics on the objects that are well-behaved under the map? One particular phenomenon of interest is homomesy'', where a statistic on the set of objects has the same average for each orbit of an action. Along with its intrinsic interest as a kind of hidden invariant'', homomesy can be used to help understand certain properties of the action. Proofs of homomesy often lead one to develop tools that further our understanding of the underlying dynamics, e.g., by finding an equivariant bijection. These notions can be lifted to higher (piecewise-linear and birational) realms, of which the combinatorial situation is a discrete shadow, and the resulting identities are somewhat surprising. Maps that can be decomposed as products of toggling'' involutions are particularly amenable to this line of analysis. This talk will be a introduction to these ideas, giving a number of examples.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Mathematics\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.math.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Department of Mathematics\n Contact phone: (517) 353-0844\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.math.msu.edu/Seminars/CalendarView.aspx?month-of=September2016\n LOCATION:Online via Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210217T210000Z UID:1613487555903@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20210217T210000Z DTEND:20210217T220000Z SUMMARY:Math Seminar Series DESCRIPTION: Algebra\n \n François Greer, IAS, will be speaking.\n \n The title is "A tale of two Severi curves".\n \n Contact Laure Flapan (flapanla@msu.edu) for more information.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Mathematics\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.math.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Department of Mathematics\n Contact phone: (517) 353-0844\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.math.msu.edu/Seminars/CalendarView.aspx?month-of=September2016\n LOCATION:Online via Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210217T211000Z UID:1613488426247@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20210217T211000Z DTEND:20210218T045900Z SUMMARY:National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory Seminar DESCRIPTION: Cole Pruitt, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, will be speaking.\n \n The presentation is titled "Neutron Skins from Neutron Scattering: How Well Do We Understand Asymmetry-Dependence?"\n \n The abstract is as follows: Many fundamental questions of nuclear physics (where is the neutron dripline? where and how does the r-process occur?) hinge on how nuclear behavior changes as a function of asymmetry. Neutron elastic and inelastic scattering measurements on stable targets help constrain reaction-model asymmetry-dependence by providing information complementary to that from facilities like FRIB. This seminar will detail our recent campaign of isotopically-resolved neutron total cross section measurements on 16,18O, 58,64Ni, 112,124Sn at the Los Alamos Neutron Science Center (LANSCE) and our implementation of the Dispersive Optical Model (DOM), which connects these experimental cross sections to nuclear structure. From our DOM analysis, we make predictions for the neutron skin thicknesses of several cornerstone nuclei, then identify some major hurdles for the next generation of optical models needed to navigate the FRIB era.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.nscl.msu.edu/\n Contact name: National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory\n Contact phone: 517-355-9671\n Contact email: nscl.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.nscl.msu.edu/apps/seminars.php\n LOCATION:Online via Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210218T160000Z UID:1613485563729@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20210218T160000Z DTEND:20210219T045900Z SUMMARY:Biochemistry & Molecular Biology Colloquium Series DESCRIPTION: Tom Metz, PNNL, will be speaking.\n \n The presentation is titled "Shifting the metabolomics paradigm: exploiting computationally predicted metabolite reference data for comprehensive metabolomics."\n \n The presentation is hosted by Quinn/Jones.\n \n\n Price: Free\n Sponsor: Biochemistry & Molecular Biology\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://bmb.natsci.msu.edu\n Contact name: Zachary F.

In this talk I will discuss some general mathematical principles allowing for efficient optimization in over-parameterized non-linear systems, a setting that includes deep neural networks. Remarkably, it seems that optimization of such systems is "easy". In particular, optimization problems corresponding to these systems are not convex, even locally, but instead satisfy locally the Polyak-Lojasiewicz (PL) condition allowing for efficient optimization by gradient descent or SGD. We connect the PL condition of these systems to the condition number associated to the tangent kernel and develop a non-linear theory parallel to classical analyses of over-parameterized linear equations. In a related but conceptually separate development, I will discuss a new perspective on the remarkable recently discovered phenomenon of transition to linearity (constancy of NTK) in certain classes of large neural networks. I will show how this transition to linearity results from the scaling of the Hessian with the size of the network.

But when an impoverished servant girl she barely knows comes and begs her to bring some justice to the death of a local boy, she is forced to face the suffering of the most vulnerable in Baghdad and the emotional and mystical legacy of her mother, a famed ecstatic whose love for God eclipsed everything. The Lover is a historically sensitive mystery that introduces us to the world of medieval Baghdad and the lives of the great Sufi mystics, washerwomen, Hadith scholars, tavern owners, slaves, corpsewashers, police, and children indentured to serve in the homes of the wealthy. It asks what it means to have family when you have nearly no one left, what it takes to love and be loved by those who have stuck by you, and how one can come to love God and everything He's done to you.\n Register in advance for this book discussion:\n https://bookings.lib.msu.edu/event/7318726\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Muslim Studies Program\n Contact email: muslimst@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://muslimstudies.isp.msu.edu/muslimstudies/events/?department=11\n LOCATION:Online END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210219T000000Z UID:1613068542735@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Public Programs DTSTART:20210219T000000Z DTEND:20210219T013000Z SUMMARY:Creativity & Collaboration In & Out of Bounds DESCRIPTION: Join us as we welcome poet/comic writer Yona Harvey and comic writer/artist Marcel Walker for a reading, presentation, and conversation with Director Lauren Russell.

Brews and Views is presented by the Institute for Quantitative Health Science and Engineering in collaboration with the Center for Ethics and Humanities in the Life Sciences.\n \n Since the start of the pandemic nearly a year ago, people in the U.S. have made a concerted effort to support local businesses by shopping and eating locally. The trend to eat local foods and even to become "locavores" has circulated in sustainability discussions for years. Buying local produce, meats, and dairy seems an obvious way to reduce one's "carbon-footprint," in addition to supporting local business. But is eating local really better for the environment? Is it an effective way to support the economy? Is it even realistic given the cost of food and limitations on local production? With the global population increase, is local food enough to keep the world fed sustainably? Could the value of supporting one's community make these questions irrelevant?\n \n Join us on Friday, February 26, 2021 at 5:00 PM EST.

In this talk, I will motivate the idea of a quantum graph and its significance in quantum communication. We will look at the different notions of quantum graphs that arise in operator systems theory, non-commutative topology and quantum information theory. I will then introduce a non-local game with quantum inputs and classical outputs, that generalizes the non local graph coloring game.

In this talk, we will discuss some recent results of the landscape theory for tight-binding Hamiltonians H=-Delta+V on Z^d. We introduce a box counting function, defined through the discrete landscape function of H. For any deterministic bounded potential, we give estimates for the integrated density of states from above and below by the landscape box counting function, which we call the landscape law. For the Anderson model, we get a refined lower bound for the IDS, throughout the spectrum. We will also discuss some numerical experiments in progress on the so-called practical landscape law for the continuous Anderson model. This talk is based on joint work with D. N. Arnold, M.

In this talk we focus on the time dynamics of solutions of nonlinear dispersive equations with random initial data. It is well known that in many situations, randomization improves the behavior of solutions to PDEs: the key underlying difficulty is in understanding how randomness propagates under the flow of nonlinear PDEs. In this context, starting with an overview of J. Bourgain's seminal work on the invariance of Gibbs measures for nonlinear Schrödinger equations we describe new methods that offer deeper insights. We discuss in particular the theory of random tensors, a powerful new framework that we developed with Yu Deng and Haitian Yue, which allows us to unravel the propagation of randomness beyond the linear evolution of random data and probe the underlying random structure that lives on high frequencies/fine scales. \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Mathematics\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.math.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Department of Mathematics\n Contact phone: (517) 353-0844\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.math.msu.edu/Seminars/CalendarView.aspx?month-of=September2016\n LOCATION:Online via Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210309T210000Z UID:1614955555494@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20210309T210000Z DTEND:20210309T220000Z SUMMARY:Physics and Astronomy Colloquium DESCRIPTION: Cheryl Sisk and Chrysoula Vasileiou will be speaking.\n \n The colloquium topic is "NatSci Climate Survey report: Summary of Findings."\n \n The event is hosted by Kirsten Tollefson.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Physics and Astronomy\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.pa.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Shawna Prater\n Contact phone: 517-884-5601\n Contact email: prater@pa.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.pa.msu.edu/seminars/colloquium_2016_Fall/schedule\n LOCATION:Online via Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210310T160000Z UID:1613140396131-0004@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20210310T160000Z DTEND:20210310T170000Z SUMMARY:Biomedical Engineering Virtual Seminar Series DESCRIPTION: Join us for our weekly seminar series featuring biomedical researchers from institutions across the country.

This gives rise to odd analogues of other permutation aspects such as length and inversions. Unlike in the classical setting, multiple permutations might have the same odd diagram. This prompts the study of "odd diagram classes": sets of permutations having the same odd diagram. We will discuss the rich combinatorial structure of these classes, including connections to pattern avoiding permutations and the Bruhat order.

In this talk we describe the minimal model program and then discuss a new way to overcome this difficulty in the arithmetic situation, which has enabled the development of the minimal model program for arithmetic threefolds of residue characteristic greater than 5.

For many important problems, simple non-convex optimization algorithms often provide good solutions efficiently and effectively, despite possible local minima. One way to explain the success of these algorithms is through the global landscape analysis. In this talk, we present some results along with this direction for phase retrieval. The main results are, for several of non-convex optimizations in phase retrieval, a local minimum is also global and all other critical points have a negative directional curvature. The results not only explain why simple non-convex algorithms usually find a global minimizer for phase retrieval, but also are useful for developing new efficient algorithms with a theoretical guarantee by applying algorithms that are guaranteed to find a local minimum.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Mathematics\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.math.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Department of Mathematics\n Contact phone: (517) 353-0844\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.math.msu.edu/Seminars/CalendarView.aspx?month-of=September2016\n LOCATION:Online via Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210311T203000Z UID:1615300607823@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20210311T203000Z DTEND:20210312T045900Z SUMMARY:Physics and Astronomy Colloquium DESCRIPTION: Catherine Espaillat, Boston University, will be speaking.\n \n The presentation title is "Multiwavelength Accretion Variability in Young Stellar Objects."\n \n Megan Donahue/Joey Rodriguez are the event hosts.\n \n All Speakers will be online through zoom.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Physics and Astronomy\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.pa.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Shawna Prater\n Contact phone: 517-884-5601\n Contact email: prater@pa.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.pa.msu.edu/seminars/colloquium_2016_Fall/schedule\n LOCATION:Online via Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210312T000000Z UID:1610577481771@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20210312T000000Z DTEND:20210312T010000Z SUMMARY:Super Science: The Legacy of Science in Superhero Comics DESCRIPTION: Superhero comics (and movies) reflect a complex fascination with science and its places in U.S. culture. In this talk, we explore science's legacy in comics from its pulp roots to contemporary superhero film.\n \n Superheroes have been linked to science from the earliest days of the comics to new cinematic adventures. What can comics tell us about the place of science in modern culture? How has the centrality of science mirrored broader sociocultural concerns? In this lecture, we explore the ways comic books and related media capture both the anxiety and aspirations linked to scientific innovation. Whether in the hands of heroes or villains, comics teach us to consider the power offered by science and caution us not to forget our responsibilities.\n \n This presentation is part of the Great Lakes Lectures series, online lectures featuring academics from Michigan State University.

This function is currently experiencing a flourishing renaissance, in particular the study of the positivity of chromatic symmetric functions when expanded into the basis of elementary symmetric functions, that is, e-positivity. In this talk we approach the question of e-positivity from various angles. Most pertinently we resolve the 1995 statement of Stanley that no known graph exists that is not contractible to the claw, and whose chromatic symmetric function is not e-positive. This is joint work with Soojin Cho, Samantha Dahlberg, Angele Foley and Adrian She, and no prior knowledge is assumed.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Mathematics\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.math.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Department of Mathematics\n Contact phone: (517) 353-0844\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.math.msu.edu/Seminars/CalendarView.aspx?month-of=September2016\n LOCATION:Online via Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210317T210000Z UID:1615900924859@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20210317T210000Z DTEND:20210317T220000Z SUMMARY:Math Seminar Series DESCRIPTION: Student Geometry/Topology\n \n Tristan Wells, Michigan State University, will be speaking.\n \n The seminar title is "Crash Course on Handles and 4 Manifolds."\n \n Contact Danika Vanniel (vannield@msu.edu) for more information.\n \n I will quickly introduce some background of 4 manifolds and their important characteristics, like the intersection form.

We will describe a geometric construction that produces families of K3 surfaces over P^1 which compactify supersingular twistor spaces. The key input is a construction relating Brauer classes of order p on a scheme of characteristic p to certain sheaves of twisted differential operators.

It is absolutely crucial for the existence of atoms heavier than hydrogen. Surprisingly, the precise value of the free neutron lifetime is still an open question, with two types of experiments (bottle and beam measurements) providing substantially different answers. I will describe the recently proposed interpretation of this discrepancy as a sign of neutron decaying to dark particles, and show that phenomenologically consistent models of this type can be constructed. I will also elaborate on the theoretical developments around this idea and discuss the efforts undertaken to verify it experimentally.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.nscl.msu.edu/\n Contact name: National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory\n Contact phone: 517-355-9671\n Contact email: nscl.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.nscl.msu.edu/apps/seminars.php\n LOCATION:Online via Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210317T220000Z UID:1612364010663@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Movie / Film DTSTART:20210317T220000Z DTEND:20210318T045900Z SUMMARY:The People's Patriarch Film Screening and Panel Discussion DESCRIPTION: Patriarch Michel Sabbah: An Arab, Palestinian and Christian believer from Nazareth.

With the dissipation of such large amounts of energy, a plethora of valuable radionuclides is formed. Exploratory research with the heavy ion beams from the NSCL (National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory) demonstrated the feasibility of a synergistic collection, and the process has become colloquially termed ‘isotope harvestingâ€(TM). However, next to nuclear, also radiolysis reactions are induced. The thereby created molecular radiolytic products, such as hydrogen peroxide, molecular hydrogen and oxygen, exhibit sufficiently long life times to allow an accumulation. In order to ensure adequate water conditions for isotope harvesting, knowledge about the behavior of these species is vital.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.nscl.msu.edu/\n Contact name: National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory\n Contact phone: 517-355-9671\n Contact email: nscl.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://www.nscl.msu.edu/apps/seminars.php\n LOCATION:Online via Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210319T220000Z UID:1616074630174@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20210319T220000Z DTEND:20210319T230000Z SUMMARY:Math Seminar Series DESCRIPTION: Student Number Theory\n \n Keping Huang, MSU, will be speaking.\n \n The presentation title is "Endomorphisms of Drinfeld modules."\n \n Contact Keping Huang (huangk23@msu.edu) for more information.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Mathematics\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.math.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Department of Mathematics\n Contact phone: (517) 353-0844\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.math.msu.edu/Seminars/CalendarView.aspx?month-of=September2016\n LOCATION:Online via Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210320T050000Z UID:1615832846809-0006@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20210320 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20210321 SUMMARY:Medstudents Mindfully Mingling EL Foodies DESCRIPTION: Medstudents Mindfully Mingling remind you to enjoy a discounted meal (20% off) at The People's Kitchen with your group within these two weeks.

We compare the accuracy and speed of our approach with available methods in the literature using different types of noisy signals, as well as showing sensitivity studies that consider the sampling frequency (SF), and Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR). Our results show that TSP can be directly applied to unfiltered signals with moderate to high noise levels for finding the zero-crossings. In contrast to many existing tools, our approach does not require any complex analog circuitry, iterative solvers, or filtering.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Mathematics\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.math.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Department of Mathematics\n Contact phone: (517) 353-0844\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.math.msu.edu/Seminars/CalendarView.aspx?month-of=September2016\n LOCATION:Online via Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210323T003000Z UID:1635893238657@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

Been told your data management plan wasn't detailed enough? Forgotten which file was which? Even small research projects can generate enough data and digital material to become confusing and vulnerable to loss. Start your next project (or class) with a plan to keep your project organized and your data safe, from inception until you are ready to share, reuse, or revisit the project whether next month or years from now. This workshop will provide strategies and insights for managing your data for effective collaboration, to meet funder requirements, or to preserve it for reuse or sharing in the future.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lib.msu.edu\n Contact name: Holly Flynn\n Contact phone: 517-884-0901\n Contact email: flynnhol@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://bookings.lib.msu.edu/event/7370338\n LOCATION:Online END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210325T160000Z UID:1616506836617@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20210325T160000Z DTEND:20210326T045900Z SUMMARY:Biochemistry & Molecular Biology Colloquium Series DESCRIPTION: Joff Silberg, Rice University, will be speaking.\n \n \n The seminar topic is "Using synthetic biology to study and control electron transfer in cells."\n \n The event is hosted by TerAvest.\n \n All seminars will be at 11:00 am.

This presentation will chart the unanticipated revolution in knowledge and practice that followed the war - the advent of germ theory, the widespread introduction of sanitation, the regulation of medical practice and the conquering of the giant contagious killers. This period is also full of controversy. We'll learn how the fruits of medical science were unevenly distributed and how basic features of U.S. society sets its system of providing medical care on a very different trajectory than that of western Europe. \n \n One of the MSU Alumni Office's long-standing featured offerings, the Coffee with the Profs series highlights research and work done by some of MSU's finest faculty and staff.

An arbitrary graph can be reduced to a point-determining graph by contracting each set of vertices with the same neighborhood to a single vertex, and this decomposition enables us to give a simple exponential generating function for counting point-determining graphs, as accomplished by Ronald Read in 1989. In this talk we will discuss a closely related problem: counting graphs in which no two vertices have complementary neighborhoods. The decomposition approach does not work here. Instead we apply inclusion-exclusion, similarly to its use in rook theory, to obtain a simple exponential generating function for these graphs. We also discuss how this application of inclusion-exclusion is related to Möbius inversion, and how it can be applied to some related problems.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Mathematics\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.math.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Department of Mathematics\n Contact phone: (517) 353-0844\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.math.msu.edu/Seminars/CalendarView.aspx?month-of=September2016\n LOCATION:Online via Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210331T210000Z UID:1616767895024@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20210331T210000Z DTEND:20210331T220000Z SUMMARY:Math Seminar Series DESCRIPTION: Analysis and PDE\n \n Peter Yuditskii, Johannes Kepler, University Linz, will be speaking.\n \n The seminar title is "The Deift conjecture."\n \n Contact Dapeng Zhan (zhan@msu.edu) for more information.\n \n At his 60th birthday conference in 2005, Percy Deift was asked to present a list of unsolved problems.

Cousins - Department of Environmental Science at University of Stockholm - will be speaking on the topic :Strategies for Grouping PFAS for Chemical Assessment: An Update."\n \n \n In April 2020, my colleagues and I published a paper outlining grouping strategies for per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) that could be applied in chemical assessment. Many academic and regulatory scientists believe that grouping strategies are needed to make the task of assessing the many thousands of PFAS on the global market more manageable. Industry scientists, however, tend on the whole to oppose any grouping strategies for PFAS and favour instead a chemical-by-chemical assessment approach based on risk assessment. In this talk, I will provide an update on the work presented in our 2020 paper with more approaches presented for grouping PFAS for risk assessment. I will also review grouping strategies based on the intrinsic properties of the PFAS (e.g. persistence, bioaccumulation potential, toxicity, and mobility). The pros and cons of the various grouping approaches presented will be discussed.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://naturalscience.msu.edu/\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.chemistry.msu.edu/colloquia-and-seminars/msu-center-for-pfas-research-seminar-series/\n LOCATION:Online via zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210401T180000Z UID:1616766114736@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20210401T180000Z DTEND:20210401T200000Z SUMMARY:ESPP Speaker Series DESCRIPTION: Speaker and presentation topic in the more info link. \n \n ESPP Spring Research Colloquium Marathon - Day 2\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Environmental Science and Policy Program\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.espp.msu.edu/\n Contact name: ESPP\n Contact phone: 517-432-8296\n Contact email: espp@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://espp.msu.edu/events/2021-04-01.html\n LOCATION:Online via zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210401T193000Z UID:1617114734625@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20210401T193000Z DTEND:20210402T045900Z SUMMARY:Math Seminar Series DESCRIPTION: Applied Mathematics\n \n Yi Ma , University of California, Berkeley, will be speaking.\n \n The topic is "Deep Networks from First Principles."\n \n Contact Olga Turanova (turanova@msu.edu) for more information.\n \n In this talk, we offer an entirely "white box'' interpretation of deep (convolution) networks from the perspective of data compression (and group invariance).

This conference will present work related to Muslim portrayals in the media (e.g., news, entertainment, social media) and evaluate how Islamophobia manifests on these platforms.\n \n Significance of theme: The media is an important conduit for conveying messages to the public, shaping public attitudes, influencing the national discourse, and generating stereotypes. Past research suggests the ways in which outgroups are represented in the media impacts the public's perceptions, attitudes, and behaviors toward them, as well as shaping support for policies that harm members of these outgroups. Scholarship is only now beginning to extend this line of research to Muslims, and to specifically explore how the media is shaping discrimination against Muslims globally. \n \n Conference presenters listed here: https://muslimstudies.isp.msu.edu/about/conference/\n Register in advance for this webinar:\n https://msu.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_7yAKBF9xQqSWX5LO7EY1bA\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Muslim Studies Program\n Contact email: muslimst@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://muslimstudies.isp.msu.edu/muslimstudies/events/?department=11\n LOCATION:Online END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210408T153000Z UID:1608571426285@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Training DTSTART:20210408T153000Z DTEND:20210408T170000Z SUMMARY:Prepare Your Data For Upload to a General Repository DESCRIPTION: Celebrate Love Data Week by making a plan to deposit your data!\n \n Sharing your research data is a crucial step in the lifecycle of your project.

The classification of these group von Neumann algebras is a central theme in operator algebras. I will survey recent rigidity results which provide instances when various algebraic properties of groups, such as the presence or absence of a direct product decomposition, are remembered by their von Neumann algebras. I will also explain the strongest such rigidity results, where L(G) completely remembers G, and discuss some of the open problems in the area.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Mathematics\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.math.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Department of Mathematics\n Contact phone: (517) 353-0844\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.math.msu.edu/Seminars/CalendarView.aspx?month-of=September2016\n LOCATION:Online via Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210413T201000Z UID:1617974299661@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20210413T201000Z DTEND:20210414T035900Z SUMMARY:Physical Chemistry Seminar DESCRIPTION: The topic is AI Accelerated Collisional Cross Section Prediction for High Throughput Metabolite Identification.\n \n Kiyoto Tanemura - Michigan State University - will be speaking.\n \n The host is Professor Kenny Merz.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Chemistry Building\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.chemistry.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Undergraduate Office/General Chemistry Office\n Contact phone: 517-353-1135\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.chemistry.msu.edu/colloquia-and-seminars/\n LOCATION:Online via Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210414T040000Z UID:1617218001476@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Public Programs DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20210414 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20210415 SUMMARY:MSU Science Festival DESCRIPTION: The MSU Science Festival is a FREE celebration of the many ways science, technology, engineering, art, and mathematics (STEAM) touch our everyday lives and shape our future.

Parole is structured to keep classes of Americans impoverished, unstable, and disenfranchised long after they've paid their debt to society.\n \n Informed by Miller's experience as the son and brother of incarcerated men, Halfway Home captures the stories of the men, women, and communities fighting against a system that is designed for them to fail.\n \n It is a poignant and eye-opening call to arms that reveals how laws, rules, and regulations extract a tangible cost not only from those working to rebuild their lives, but also our democracy. As Miller searchingly explores, America must acknowledge and value the lives of its formerly imprisoned citizens.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lib.msu.edu\n Contact name: Holly Flynn\n Contact phone: 517-884-0901\n Contact email: flynnhol@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://bookings.lib.msu.edu/event/7705956\n LOCATION:Online END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210422T040000Z UID:1617220918726@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Public Programs DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20210422 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20210423 SUMMARY:MSU Science Festival DESCRIPTION: The MSU Science Festival is a FREE celebration of the many ways science, technology, engineering, art, and mathematics (STEAM) touch our everyday lives and shape our future.

To complicate matters, copyright compliance and licensing agreements require the use of appropriate stable links for integration of proprietary content in a course. This Stable Links for Electronic Resources workshop will guide participants through the process of integrating journal articles, e-book chapters, or streaming media into their course(s). Instructions for creating stable links in various platforms will be provided and participants will gain hands-on experience in successfully integrating stable links into D2L and other course-related materials.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lib.msu.edu\n Contact name: Holly Flynn\n Contact phone: 517-884-0901\n Contact email: flynnhol@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://bookings.lib.msu.edu/event/7327384\n LOCATION:Online END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210518T220000Z UID:1618255339931@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20210518T220000Z DTEND:20210518T230000Z SUMMARY:Sigma Sigma Phi General Meeting DESCRIPTION: This is the first general meeting for Sigma Sigma Phi members (SSP) where we will discuss volunteer opportunities and membership requirements.\n Join Zoom Meeting\n https://msu.zoom.us/j/91535924279\n Meeting ID: 915 3592 4279\n Passcode: COMSSP\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: student\n Contact name: Christina Ramotowski\n Contact email: ramotows@msu.edu\n LOCATION:zoom meeting END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210519T040000Z UID:1619654700819-0019@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20210519 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20210520 SUMMARY:Summer Supply Drive DESCRIPTION: Spartan Street Med, Detroit Street Care, Woman's Health Interest Group, and American Medical Women's Association (CHM and COM) are hosting a summer supply drive for those experiencing homelessness during the Month of May.

Regardless of result, this landmark political moment would have been unimaginable a century before. This lecture will argue that Scotland's political evolution is heavily influenced by the ways in which writers have engaged with national history and identity in their work. We will look at authors from the early twentieth century who celebrated regional diversity and folk culture in a range of Scottish languages, and who debated the pros and cons of Scottish independence. We will then explore how more recent writers, from lyric poets to the bestselling authors of 'tartan noir' crime fiction, have helped create modern Scotland.\n \n This will be presented by Garry MacKenzie, an academic, poet and non-fiction writer based in Fife, Scotland. \n \n The event is free, but registration is required. Register by May 20 at go.msu.edu/sta-spring-21.\n \n This presentation is in anticipation of Sojourn in St. Andrews, a one-week, lifelong education abroad program hosted by the MSU Alumni Office planned for June/July of 2022.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Elizabeth Wheeler\n Contact email: szufnar@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://go.msu.edu/STA-Spring-21\n LOCATION:Virtual END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210524T220000Z UID:1620841472756@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20210524T220000Z DTEND:20210524T230000Z SUMMARY:Student Osteopathic Medical Association DESCRIPTION: Student Osteopathic Medical Association executive board meeting to discuss plans for the month of June.\n https://msu.zoom.us/j/94467532318\n Meeting ID: 944 6753 2318\n Passcode: COMSOMA\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Student Osteopathic Medical Association \n Contact name: Selena Tiberio\n Contact phone: 5867184299\n Contact email: tiberios@msu.edu \n LOCATION:Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210524T233000Z UID:1620406510251@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20210524T233000Z DTEND:20210525T035900Z SUMMARY:IMSA and SAMSA Present: Mental Health Awareness Panel with Dr. Abbasi DESCRIPTION: Islamic Medical Student Association and South Asian Medical Student Association host a discussion with Dr. Abbasi about addressing mental health in our communities, and how to better care for patients who look like us as future physicians.

The growing interest is in part due to the promise of "extracting value from data". The pharmaceutical industry is no different in this regard reflected by the advancement and excitement surrounding data science. Data science brings new perspectives, new methods, new skill sets and the wider use of new data modalities. For example, there is a belief that extracting value from data integrated from multiple sources and modalities using advances in statistics, machine learning, informatics and computation can answer fundamental questions. These questions span a variety of themes including: disease understanding (i.e. "precision" medicine, disease endo/pheno-typing, etc.), drug discovery (i.e. new targets and therapies), measurement (i.e. multi-omics, digital biomarkers, software as a medical device, etc.), and drug development (i.e. dose-exposure-response, efficacy, safety, compliance, etc.). By answering these fundamental questions, we can not only increase knowledge and understanding but more importantly inform decision making; accelerating drug and medical device development through data-driven prioritisation, precise measurement, optimised trial design and operational excellence. However, with the promise of data science, there are also a number of obstacles to overcome, especially if data science is to live up to this promise and deliver a positive impact. These obstacles include consensus on a common understanding of the very definition of data science, the relationship between data science and existing fields such as statistics and computing science, what should be involved in the day to day practices of data science, and what is "good" practice. In this talk I will cover some of these issues, with the aim of opening a dialogue on good data science practice in the context of drug development, analogous to guidance such as ICH E8 (International Conference on Harmonisation 2018a) or E9 (International Conference on Harmonisation 2018b).\n \n References: International Conference on Harmonisation (ICH). 2018a.

The scientific and economic justification for collecting and using all that data is deceptively simple: we can infer expensive- and hard-to-know data from cheap- and easy-to-know data and make predictions and automated decisions on the basis of the patterns we find. When that data is about human behavior, that inferential step is ethically fraught because it often involves data that is ubiquitous (social media, geolocation, biometrics, etc.) being used to predict traits that are from an entirely different context (race, religion, sexual preference, gender, etc.), and typically without knowledge or consent. This is a highly complex ethical challenge, yet our research ethics norms and regulations were written for a different paradigm of scientific research. In this talk, I will illustrate this dynamic with several cases of data science research ethics controversies and consider how we might establish new practices for ethical research.\n \n Co-Sponsored by the Center for Statistical Training and Consulting (CSTAT) and MSU Libraries\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lib.msu.edu\n Contact name: Holly Flynn\n Contact phone: 517-884-0901\n Contact email: flynnhol@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://bookings.lib.msu.edu/event/7823977\n LOCATION:Online END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210611T200000Z UID:1621893493760@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20210611T200000Z DTEND:20210611T220000Z SUMMARY:Auntie Na's Volunteering through Public Health Association DESCRIPTION: Public Health Association Volunteers will package food, organize clothes, and garden for Auntie Na's, a community based organization. \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Public Health Association\n Contact name: Shalini Tummala\n Contact phone: 2486351617\n Contact email: tummala3@msu.edu\n LOCATION:12028 Yellowstone St, Detroit, MI 48204 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210612T140000Z UID:1621635232136@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20210612T140000Z DTEND:20210612T200000Z SUMMARY:Sigma Sigma Phi - Macomb Humane Society DESCRIPTION: SSP members will be volunteering at the Macomb Humane Society to help with building a nature trail on their property.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Sigma Sigma Phi\n Contact name: Maddie Dodson-Garrett\n Contact email: dodsonga@msu.edu\n LOCATION:Macomb Humane Society END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210613T150000Z UID:1622681010999@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20210613T150000Z DTEND:20210613T160000Z SUMMARY:American Medical Women's Association's Yoga and Lunch in the Park DESCRIPTION: The American Medical Women's Association is holding a yoga and Chipotle in the park event at Wonch Park in Okemos.

To complicate matters, copyright compliance and licensing agreements require the use of appropriate stable links for integration of proprietary content in a course. This Stable Links for Electronic Resources workshop will guide participants through the process of integrating journal articles, e-book chapters, or streaming media into their course(s). Instructions for creating stable links in various platforms will be provided and participants will gain hands-on experience in successfully integrating stable links into D2L and other course-related materials.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lib.msu.edu\n Contact name: Holly Flynn\n Contact phone: 517-884-0901\n Contact email: flynnhol@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://bookings.lib.msu.edu/event/7327385\n LOCATION:Online END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210707T214500Z UID:1622076691000-0005@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Public Programs DTSTART:20210707T214500Z DTEND:20210707T231500Z SUMMARY:Jewish Osteopathic Student Association Volunteer Opportunity DESCRIPTION: Students will be helping with a program called "KiwiKids" where they will be unloading trucks and distributing boxes of kosher food to families in need in the Greater Lansing Area.\n Sign up in advance here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1K9OlotKEgTprYuBBv2vAhxHwKwgCJqoxD7Xv0OlRDmA/edit?usp=sharing\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: student\n Contact name: Rozzie Bloch\n Contact phone: 2487309944\n Contact email: blochros@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.kiwikids.org\n LOCATION:Congregation Shaarey Zedek END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210708T040000Z UID:1624453940153-0016@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20210708 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20210709 SUMMARY:Detroit Medical Center MMM Foodies DESCRIPTION: DMC's first MMM Foodies will be at Ima.

There is also time for a project showcase, when community members can share very short prepared or impromptu remarks about their projects and work. \n \n This year, we are holding THATCamp as a virtual event from 9:00am-2:00pm, and there will also be an in person Ice Cream Social from 3:30-5:00pm outside Linton Hall.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lib.msu.edu\n Contact name: Holly Flynn\n Contact phone: 517-884-0901\n Contact email: flynnhol@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://bookings.lib.msu.edu/event/8109944\n LOCATION:Online END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210826T150000Z UID:1630001706891@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20210826T150000Z DTEND:20210827T035900Z SUMMARY:Biochemistry & Molecular Biology Colloquium Series DESCRIPTION: Prof.Emily Balskus from Harvard University gives a presentation.\n\n Price: Free\n Sponsor: Biochemistry & Molecular Biology\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://bmb.natsci.msu.edu\n Contact name: Ashley Parks\n Contact email: clarkas@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://bmb.natsci.msu.edu/research/seminars/bmb-fall-2021-seminar-series/\n LOCATION:Online END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210826T183000Z UID:1629146279767@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20210826T183000Z DTEND:20210826T193000Z SUMMARY:Math Seminar Series DESCRIPTION: Prof. Deanna Needell from UCLA gives a presentation on the topic of topic modeling: enhancing machine learning approaches with topic features.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Department of Mathematics\n Sponsor's Homepage: https://www.math.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Department of Mathematics\n Contact phone: (517) 353-0844\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.math.msu.edu/Seminars/CalendarView.aspx?month-of=September2016\n LOCATION:Online END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210826T193000Z UID:1629998409728@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20210826T193000Z DTEND:20210827T035900Z SUMMARY:Ecology, Evolutionary Biology and Behavior Seminar DESCRIPTION: Prof. Mauricio Losilla from Michigan State University gives a presentation about genomic basis of electric signal variation in African weakly electric fish.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: EEBB Program\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://eebb.msu.edu/\n Contact name: EEBB Office\n Contact phone: (517) 432-1359\n Contact email: eebb@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://eeb.msu.edu/events/seminar-series/\n LOCATION:Online END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210828T170000Z UID:1627936279440@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20210828T170000Z DTEND:20210829T023000Z SUMMARY:Oakland County Traditional Dance Society - 30th Anniversary - Dance, Food, Music DESCRIPTION: OCTDS announces that after 1.5 years of being shutdown due to the COVID pandemic, that it resumes dancing!

Questions can be emailed to leekrist@msu.edu.\n \n Although many understand the value of sharing online library resources such as e-journal articles, e-book chapters, or streaming media in D2L or other course-related materials, the process for doing so is not intuitive or transparent. To complicate matters, copyright compliance and licensing agreements require the use of appropriate stable links for integration of proprietary content in a course. This Stable Links for Electronic Resources workshop will guide participants through the process of integrating journal articles, e-book chapters, or streaming media into their course(s). Instructions for creating stable links in various platforms will be provided and participants will gain hands-on experience in successfully integrating stable links into D2L and other course-related materials.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lib.msu.edu\n Contact name: Holly Flynn\n Contact phone: 517-884-0901\n Contact email: flynnhol@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://bookings.lib.msu.edu/event/8087584\n LOCATION:Online END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210907T170000Z UID:1628944315683@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

Questions can be emailed to leekrist@msu.edu.\n \n Although many understand the value of sharing online library resources such as e-journal articles, e-book chapters, or streaming media in D2L or other course-related materials, the process for doing so is not intuitive or transparent. To complicate matters, copyright compliance and licensing agreements require the use of appropriate stable links for integration of proprietary content in a course. This Stable Links for Electronic Resources workshop will guide participants through the process of integrating journal articles, e-book chapters, or streaming media into their course(s). Instructions for creating stable links in various platforms will be provided and participants will gain hands-on experience in successfully integrating stable links into D2L and other course-related materials.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lib.msu.edu\n Contact name: Holly Flynn\n Contact phone: 517-884-0901\n Contact email: flynnhol@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://bookings.lib.msu.edu/event/8087629\n LOCATION:Online END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210915T170000Z UID:1631282889219@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20210915T170000Z DTEND:20210915T183000Z SUMMARY:MSU IT Zoom for Interaction and Engagement Webinar DESCRIPTION: Zoom has integrated features that can improve engagement, interaction, and communication in 1-1 or group Zoom meetings.

Land acknowledgements are statements intended to affirm and honor Indigenous histories and relational connections to land and sovereignty. As these statements grow in popularity, it becomes important to consider what these statements mean within the context of the contemporary land grant system.

Dwyer\n Abstract: Lightning strikes our planet about a billion times per year, killing as many people as hurricanes or tornadoes. Surprisingly, despite its familiarity, we still don't understand many things about lightning, including how it gets started inside thunderstorms and how it travels such large distances through air. In addition, many new and strange phenomena have been discovered in and around thunderstorms, including colossal jellyfish-like structures near the edge of space called sprites, enormous, expanding rings of light called elves, bizarre, bluish jets shooting out of cloud tops, powerful flashes of gamma rays emanating from deep inside storms, and large but nearly-invisible discharges called dark lightning. In this presentation, I will talk about the mysteries of lightning and other weird things that lightning does.\n\n Price: FREE\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Bob Patterer\n Contact phone: 517-908-7573\n Contact email: events@frib.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://frib.msu.edu/gateway/events/talk-17october.html\n LOCATION:Facility for Rare Isotope Beams END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211017T220000Z UID:1637020610785@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

Dr. Khamis tackles the efforts of modern Muslims to deploy digital media to resist their negative stereotypes, rectify their images, and spread correct awareness about their faith tradition and their multifaceted identities, amid a rising global wave of Islamophobia, through adopting new strategies and tactics, including online campaigns. Her talk unpacks the double-edged sword effect of social media, and digitally based discourse, in the contexts of spreading Islamophobia, on one-hand, and countering it, on the other-hand.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Muslim Studies Program\n Contact email: muslimst@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://muslimstudies.isp.msu.edu/muslimstudies/events/?id=52411\n LOCATION:CAS 145 and Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211020T220000Z UID:1637020708252@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

Oct. 28, 7pm HYBRID EVENT\n \n Allie Abraham has it all going for her-she's a straight-A student, with good friends and a close-knit family, and she's dating cute, popular, and sweet Wells Henderson. One problem: Wells's father is Jack Henderson, America's most famous conservative shock jock...and Allie hasn't told Wells that her family is Muslim. It's not like Allie's religion is a secret, exactly. It's just that her parents don't practice and raised her to keep her Islamic heritage to herself. But as Allie witnesses ever-growing Islamophobia in her small town and across the nation, she begins to embrace her faith-studying it, practicing it, and facing hatred and misunderstanding for it. Who is Allie, if she sheds the façade of the "perfect" all-American girl? What does it mean to be a "Good Muslim?" And can a Muslim girl in America ever truly fit in?\n \n \n ALL-AMERICAN MUSLIM GIRL is a relevant, relatable story of being caught between two worlds, and the struggles and hard-won joys of finding your place. \n Register here: https://bookings.lib.msu.edu/calendar/events/mj1021\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Zoe McLaughlin\n Contact email: mclau197@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://bookings.lib.msu.edu/calendar/events/mj1021\n LOCATION:Library 4th Floor Green Room END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211028T230000Z UID:1634069671134@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Movie / Film DTSTART:20211028T230000Z DTEND:20211029T003000Z SUMMARY:TAZARA Stories: Documentary Film Screening And Q&A With Filmmaker Professor Jamie Monson DESCRIPTION: TAZARA Stories tells the story of a train through the memories of those who built it.

Based in New York, the blend of two trumpets and two trombones navigates an array of venues and projects with the precision of a string quartet, the audacity of a rock band, and the charm of a family sing-along.

Imbued with the spirit of improvisation and a folk-like approachability, this concert presents The Westerlies at their best, cutting new trails across the vast expanse of the American musical landscape.\n \n Works to include "Entr'acte" by Caroline Shaw, adaptations of music by the Golden Gate Quartet, music by Duke Ellington, and original compositions by The Westerlies, among other selections announced from the stage.\n\n Price: Adult: $22, Senior: $20, Student: $12, ADA Adult: $22, ADA Senior: $20, ADA Student: $12\n Sponsor: College of Music\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.music.msu.edu\n Contact name: Jayar Brenner\n Contact email: msupr@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.etix.com/ticket/p/4606232/msu-federal-credit-union-showcase-seriesthe-westerlies-east-la\n LOCATION:Fairchild Theatre END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211104T000000Z UID:1637021106058@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

Artists: Derek Kealii Polischuk, piano; Yvonne Lam, violin; Guy Yehuda, clarinet.\n \n Featuring pianist Derek Polischuk, the theme of the program opens with grief and loss, followed by comfort-"Funerailles" by Franz Liszt, and his Consolation #3 in D-Flat Major. Then, pure musical joy-a set of three piano works based on songs by the Beatles-a setting of "Norwegian Wood" by Pauline Oliveros, a setting of "Golden Slumbers" by Toru Takemitsu, and "The Walrus in Memorium" by Terry Riley.\n \n For the second half of the program, Polischuk is joined by Yvonne Lam, violin and Guy Yehuda, clarinet to perform the suite from "L'Histoire du soldat (The Soldier's Tale)", by Igor Stravinsky. Stravinsky wrote this remarkable work in 1917/1918 for a small theatre company while isolated in Switzerland during World War I, about a soldier who battles for his soul with the devil. After a successful premiere, the Spanish Flu Pandemic shut all theaters in Switzerland. Out of necessity, he created this more intimate trio version. \n\n Price: Adult: $12, Senior: $10, Student: Free\n Sponsor: College of Music\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.music.msu.edu\n Contact name: Jayar Brenner\n Contact email: musicpr@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.etix.com/ticket/p/5246181/artistfaculty-and-guest-recital-series-sponsored-by-wkarchambe\n LOCATION:Fairchild Theatre END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211105T000000Z UID:1637021167485@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

The year 1971's geostrategic significance for the Indian subcontinent rivals that of 1947 when British India was divided into India and Pakistan. While the roots of Bangladesh's secession from Pakistan lay firmly within the Pakistani polity, India's political support for the Bangladesh freedom movement and its military intervention were crucial for the liberation of Bangladesh. Although humanitarian considerations, especially the influx of close to ten million refugees into India, played a role in India's decision, the major factors determining the decision to intervene militarily in the Bangladesh crisis were political and strategic in character. This presentation by a close observer of the events of 1971 will analyze these factors as well as the decision-making process that led to India midwifing the birth of Bangladesh.\n \n \n Mohammed Ayoob\n University Distinguished Professor Emeritus of International Relations\n Michigan State University\n \n Register here: https://msu.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_bEneGDNMQB2XaGM6jAMh8g\n \n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Muslim Studies Program\n Contact email: muslimst@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://muslimstudies.isp.msu.edu/muslimstudies/events/?id=52418\n LOCATION:online END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211105T160000Z UID:1635538707098@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Public Programs DTSTART:20211105T160000Z DTEND:20211105T220000Z SUMMARY:Spartan Upcycle Fridays: Metallic Votive Candle Holders DESCRIPTION: Let the light in for November's cozy, fall-inspired project!

After the elimination of the Jadid writers in the second half of 1930, when the Soviet literary policy started to dominate Uzbek literary activities, it forced the writers to produce more allusive and metaphorical literature in order to escape the state censorship. The literary works which articulated such ideas have been studied not only by Uzbek but by foreign, including American scholars.\n How did they approach Uzbek Literary Politics? Were American researchers' objective in their findings? Why did Uzbek scholars call them "ideological enemies"? What has changed in American scholars' research after the post-colonial period? What is modern Uzbek criticism saying about foreign scholars research concerning National Literary Politics now? These and other questions will be discussed in the workshop.\n \n Speaker: Dr. Zulkhumor Inomovna Mirzaeva\n Toshkent Alisher Navoi Uzbek Language and Literature University FEP Visiting Scholar at University of Arkansas\n Moderator: Prof. Norman Graham\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Timur Kocoaglu\n Contact email: timur@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://ceres.isp.msu.edu/ceres/events/?id=52448\n LOCATION:302 International Center END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211112T180000Z UID:1628133548303@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20211112T180000Z DTEND:20211112T190000Z SUMMARY:EndNote Q&A Session DESCRIPTION: Have questions about using EndNote?

His work is beautifully represented in his composition Trio Romántico. In turn, Eduardo Alonso Crespo creates an alluring homage to the tango, Argentina's national treasure, in Trio Op. 30. The program also features the world premiere of La Hamaca (The Hammock), a work inspired by the 1933 painting by Armando Reverón and composed by Venezuelan-born Ricardo Lorenz. \n\n Price: Adult: $12, Senior: $10, Student: Free\n Sponsor: College of Music\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.music.msu.edu\n Contact name: Jayar Brenner\n Contact email: msupr@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.etix.com/ticket/p/4488849/guest-ensemblerever%C3%B3n-trio-east-lansing-cook-recital-hall\n LOCATION:Cook Recital Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211113T010000Z UID:1637021339854@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

When two galaxies collide, the effects on their central supermassive black holes can be dramatic. Galaxy mergers funnel gas towards their centers, where it creates spectacularly bright fireworks as it spirals into the black holes. Eventually the two black holes form a close binary pair, emitting powerful gravitational waves as they spiral toward each other and merge to form one larger black hole. Gravitational waves-ripples in the fabric of spacetime-were first detected by the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory in 2015, a discovery that was awarded the 2017 Nobel Prize in Physics. Now we stand on the cusp of the next frontier: detections of low-frequency gravitational waves from supermassive black hole binaries. I will describe our recent work to model supermassive black hole populations across cosmic time and make predictions for gravitational-wave sources, using large simulations of galaxy collisions and cosmological volumes.\n\n Price: Free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Bob Patterer\n Contact email: events@frib.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://frib.msu.edu/gateway/events/talk-5december.html\n LOCATION:Facility for Rare Isotope Beams END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211205T190000Z UID:1637087848343@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

Mona, now Shola, is faced with the choice of continued abuse or fighting back.\n \n Warning: This film is rated TV-MA, and contains nudity and depictions of sexual violence.

Singh (Department of English)\n \n Drawing on selected pre-1800 archival materials from the Stephen O. Murray and Keelung Hong Special Collections at the MSU Libraries, this special online talk and discussion will present the interactions and "translations" between early modern English and Muslim travelers and empires, with a focus on the Ottoman (Turkey) and Mughal empires (India). As the frontiers of geographical knowledge were expanding and changing, so were the cultural, linguistic, religious, and racial/ethnic coordinates by which Europeans (Christians) and Muslims defined their own identities. These changes figure in many cross-cultural "encounters," which reveal the process of confronting "otherness" -- both as real and imagined - and as specters or projections of familiar fears and fantasies. This talk will look afresh at the concept of the "encounter" in the context of Anglo-Muslim interactions, with a thematic emphasis on representations of Islamic cities and cultures from the perspective of English travelers, emissaries, and ambassadors who visited these empires. Selections from the books will be on display via Zoom, presented by Tad Boehmer, Curator of Rare Books. Professor Singh's talk will be followed by facilitated small group discussions.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lib.msu.edu\n Contact name: Holly Flynn\n Contact phone: 517-884-0901\n Contact email: flynnhol@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://bookings.lib.msu.edu/event/8804539\n LOCATION:Online END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20220304T170000Z UID:1644512267605@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Public Programs DTSTART:20220304T170000Z DTEND:20220304T180000Z SUMMARY:FOMO?: Change Blindness and Selective Attention DESCRIPTION: We all think we're pretty good observers.

Miller is bringing the Science of Grief to MSU and the Greater Lansing community for the first time. This poetry workshop dedicated to individual and community wellbeing kicks off the Science of Grief 2022. \n \n \n Sometimes the detached language of medical records reduces the patient to a graph, a collection of figures, or a list of symptoms. How can we use poetry to transform the data into the human? In this workshop with Natasha T. Miller and Lauren Russell, Director of the RCAH Center for Poetry, we will create new poems from old medical records, in conversation with the exhibition Kahlo Without Borders. We'll then have an open-mic style reading of the poems created in the workshop. Please bring copies of medical records you are interested in working with, such as an after-visit summary, psychological evaluation, immunization record, lab data, or an imaging report. Registration for this free, online event is required. Register here. \n \n \n \n This event is presented in partnership with MSU Museum's Science Gallery, The Writing Center, the Creative Writing Program and RCAH Center for Poetry at MSU. \n \n \n \n Kahlo Without Borders is on view through Aug. 7, 2022 at the MSU Broad Art Museum. \n \n \n \n This event will take place on Zoom. \n\n Price: free, registration is required\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Broad MSU\n Contact phone: (517) 884-4800\n Contact email: eebam@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://50807.blackbaudhosting.com/50807/Science-of-Grief-Letter-Writing-\n LOCATION:Eli and Edythe Broad Art Museum at Michigan State University END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20220324T230000Z UID:1645653594489@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Academic DTSTART:20220324T230000Z DTEND:20220325T001500Z SUMMARY:2022 Jack Paynter Lecture featuring Dr. Susan Collins DESCRIPTION: James Madison College welcomes Dr. Susan Collins, Associate Professor of Political Science at University of Notre Dame, to present "The Spartans and the Ancient Regime: Political Order in a World of Conflict"\n \n Although a talk about the Spartans may seem a natural for Michigan State, contemporary scholars looking for models of good government among the ancient regimes are unlikely to take their bearings from Classical Sparta. In earlier eras, however, many thinkers admired the good order, civic virtue, and freedom of the Spartan regime, all of which they connected with its success in managing internal conflict and external war. This talk examines the reasons for this admiration across the history of thought, the challenge that the Spartan regime poses especially for the classical political philosophers, and the ways in which a consideration of this regime can inform problems of political order today.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Justin Burkett\n Contact email: burket16@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://jmc.msu.edu/events/2022-paynter-lecture.html\n LOCATION:Club Spartan (3rd Floor, Case Hall) END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20220325T000000Z UID:1645124632785@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Movie / Film DTSTART:20220325T000000Z DTEND:20220325T010000Z SUMMARY:Film Screening and Discussion: Descended from The Promised Land: The Legacy of Black Wall Street DESCRIPTION: Through the lens of Black Wall Street descendants Byron Crenshaw, Jacqueline Blocker and Michelle Blocker, we draw a century-long thread from the Tulsa Race Massacre to the present, exploring the lingering economic, psychological and emotional impacts that have undermined the rebuilding of the once thriving community.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lib.msu.edu\n Contact name: Holly Flynn\n Contact phone: 517-884-0901\n Contact email: flynnhol@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://bookings.lib.msu.edu/event/8922387\n LOCATION:Online END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20220325T003000Z UID:1635894056500@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

Scientists have systematically tackled some of those challenges through measurements and theoretical frameworks in which to interpret them. Professor Randall will discuss how the theme of organizing according to the size of the system plays a critical role in scientific research. This is very useful for nuclear science at FRIB, where the interactions of protons and neutrons are determined by fundamental physics at much smaller length scales, and yet they also interact with light at wavelengths much longer than the size of atomic nuclei. The talk includes examples from her own research on particle physics, extra dimensions of space, and cosmology. She will also explore advances in human thought more generally, and the utility of parceling concepts according to this organizing principle.\n \n Register for the event here: https://msu.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_VgqygqmURuGrkeI86e5QNw\n \n\n Price: Free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Bob Patterer\n Contact email: events@frib.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://frib.msu.edu/gateway/events/talk-lisa-randall.html\n LOCATION:Zoom - Facility for Rare Isotope Beams END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20220404T050000Z UID:1646791139412-0001@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20220404 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20220405 SUMMARY:CAMSA P.B.J.

Schnitzer - Optical imaging of neuronal dynamics in healthy and diseased brains DESCRIPTION: Optical techniques have become central to research at the forefront of brain science and are still rapidly increasing in their breadth and importance to the field. For instance, the United States Brain Research through Advancing Innovative Neurotechnologies (BRAIN) Initiative has as one of its priorities the aim of fostering continued innovation in this domain. I will present recent advances in optical brain imaging, which have allowed the visualization of large-scale neural codes in behaving animals as well as optical readouts of neuronal voltage oscillations. I will then illustrate different ways in which neural information processing can become aberrant in states of brain disease, as revealed using optical imaging technologies. Further innovation in these areas in upcoming years is likely to yield better understanding of both healthy and diseased brains.\n \n Register for the event here: https://msu.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_A_neGZJsTzWnVUtUdMLLaA\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Bob Patterer\n Contact email: events@frib.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://frib.msu.edu/gateway/events/talk-mark-schnitzer.html\n LOCATION:Zoom - Facility for Rare Isotope Beams END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20220501T173000Z UID:1649269908711@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20220501T173000Z DTEND:20220501T190000Z SUMMARY:Therapy Dogs DESCRIPTION: Take a study break and pet a dog!\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lib.msu.edu\n Contact name: Holly Flynn\n Contact phone: 517-884-0901\n Contact email: flynnhol@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://bookings.lib.msu.edu/event/9030537\n LOCATION:Main Library END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20220501T190000Z UID:1636391516877@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

To complicate matters, copyright compliance and licensing agreements require the use of appropriate stable links for integration of proprietary content in a course. This Stable Links for Electronic Resources workshop will guide participants through the process of integrating journal articles, e-book chapters, or streaming media into their course(s).

Dr. Farrier's lecture will explore topics addressed in her book Constitutional Dysfunction on Trial.\n \n Can the federal courts fix a broken separation of powers system? Focusing on five decades of lawsuits brought by House and Senate members that challenge presidential unilateralism, Dr. Farrier provides a new diagnostic lens on imbalanced powers across a diverse array of partisan and policy landscapes. But these lawsuits often backfire - leaving Congress as an institution even more disadvantaged, regardless of party in power. This talk will discuss ways that these suits are more symptoms of constitutional dysfunction than the cure. Summarizing her latest book, Constitutional Dysfunction on Trial shows federal judges will not and cannot restore the separation of powers system alone. Fifty years of congressional atrophy cannot be reversed in court.\n \n Constitution Day commemorates the anniversary of the 1787 signing of the U.S. Constitution and is intended to increase student awareness and appreciation of this important document. \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Justin Burkett\n Contact email: burket16@msu.edu \n for more info visit the web at:\n https://jmc.msu.edu/events/2022-constitution-day.html\n LOCATION:Club Spartan (Third Floor, Case Hall) END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20220916T220000Z UID:1661969414577@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

Her works and teachings left a lasting mark on modern algebra, opening new avenues for a modern structural perspective in mathematics. Noether began her studies at a time when women were only beginning to break down the barriers that prevented them from entering the doors of German universities. She eventually overcame even stronger resistance when she applied for the right to teach at a German university. It took her four years before she acquired that certification (Habilitation) in Göttingen on June 4, 1919, after submitting a thesis in which she solved one of the central problems in Einstein's general theory of relativity.\n \n To celebrate the centenary of this event and the career of a unique personality in the history of mathematics, the ensemble Portraittheater Vienna produced a biographical play, directed by Sandra Schüddekopf and starring Anita Zieher as Emmy. It opened on June 4, 2019 at the Freie Universität Berlin. Afterwards the play has been performed with great success at several different universities throughout Germany as well as the Theater Drachengasse in Vienna under the title "Mathematische Spaziergänge mit Emmy Noether". Based on historical documents and events, the script was written by Sandra Schüddekopf and Anita Zieher in cooperation with the historians Mechthild Koreuber and David E. Rowe. "Diving into Math with Emmy Noether," the English-language variant, will be available for performances in other European countries as of 2021, and will go on tour in North America during the spring of 2022. Financial support for the original production was provided by three universities in Berlin (Freie Universität, Humboldt-Universität, Technische Universität), and four other German universities (Erlangen-Nürnberg, Göttingen, Mainz, and Bielefeld).\n \n Duration: 65 minutes\n Language: English\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Bob Patterer\n Contact email: events@frib.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://www.jinaweb.org/events/diving-math-emmy-noether\n LOCATION:Facility for Rare Isotope Beams END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20220917T233000Z UID:1656516642093@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20220917T233000Z DTEND:20220918T020000Z SUMMARY:(B)road to Ten DESCRIPTION: The MSU Broad Art Museum, together with Gala Co-Chairs and Host Committee, proudly celebrates our 10th anniversary year with (B)road to Ten, a premier fundraising event benefiting the new Open Storage Center-a project designed to bring major parts of our collection out of private, offsite storage and into the museum for public enjoyment.\n \n Please join us on Saturday, September 17 at 7:30pm for a memorable evening including a scrumptious strolling dinner, bar with signature drinks, spectacular light displays, live entertainment, incredible art, and more.\n \n Thanks to the generous support of MSU Federal Credit Union, Alan + Rebecca Ross, and Dr. Teresa K.

A pow-wow has historical, spiritual, and social value to American Indian/Native American peoples. They are more than social events. The pow-wow represents continuation for the friendship which has always been extended by Indians to those who have come to Turtle Island, the Native name for North America.\n \n A powwow is a time of learning and carrying on rich cultural heritage. There is a spiritual significance in the dances, songs, and customs observed, along with the preparations for the event. It is also a chance to display artistic ability with the many arts and crafts common to the Indian people. In addition to participating in traditional dance and song, people visit with family and friend, make new acquaintances, and develop more personal relationships. The pow-wow provides an opportunity for our youth to learn from our elders and carry on tradition. We offer this experience as a way to introduce our (Native American) cultures in hopes of breaking stereotypes and building community.\n\n Price: MSU Students: Free, Public: $5\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Grant Gliniecki\n Contact email: gliniec6@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://powwowoflove.com\n LOCATION:IM East Field END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20221001T163000Z UID:1663875206783@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20221001T163000Z DTEND:20221001T200000Z SUMMARY:Michigan Performing Arts College Fair DESCRIPTION: This unique college fair is for students who are interested in pursuing a degree in the performing arts.

Girvin from Yale University DESCRIPTION: FRIB invites the community to the next Advanced Studies Gateway public talk event. Steven M. Girvin, Eugene Higgins Professor of Physics and Professor of Applied Physics at Yale University, will give a public talk titled Progress and Prospects for the Second Quantum Revolution and the Race to Build "Impossible" Computers. The talk will begin at 1 p.m. (EDT) on 2 October on Zoom. Register for the event here: https://msu.zoom.us/.../register/WN_7i5mSh6OTI6wRAZXtqWdVA\n \n From the speaker:\n "The first quantum revolution brought us the great technological advances of the 20th century-the transistor, the laser, the atomic clock and the global positioning system (GPS). We now realize that this 20th century hardware does not take full advantage of the power of quantum machines. A second quantum revolution is now underway based on our relatively new understanding of how information can be stored, manipulated, and communicated using strange quantum hardware that is neither fully digital nor fully analog. This talk will give a gentle introduction to the basic concepts that underlie this quantum information revolution and describe major challenges as well as recent remarkable experimental progress in the race to build quantum machines for computing, sensing and communication."\n \n For more information about accessible accommodations and the Advanced Studies Gateway at FRIB, visit frib.msu.edu/gateway.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Bob Patterer\n Contact phone: (517) 908-7573\n Contact email: events@frib.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://frib.msu.edu/gateway/events/talk-steven-girvin.html\n LOCATION:Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20221002T190000Z UID:1663875599104@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

The lecture will take place on Thursday, 6 October at 6 p.m. in 1300 FRIB Laboratory. There will be a special reception at 5 p.m. (immediately prior to the lecture) in the area outside of room 1300. The event is free and open to the public. The lecture is part of Michigan State University's Distinguished Nuclear Policy Lecture series.\n \n Talk abstract:\n "The first quantum revolution brought us the great technological advances of the 20th century-the transistor, the laser, the atomic clock and the global positioning system (GPS). We now realize that this 20th century hardware does not take full advantage of the power of quantum machines. A second quantum revolution is now underway based on our relatively new understanding of how information can be stored, manipulated, and communicated using strange quantum hardware that is neither fully digital nor fully analog. This talk will give a gentle introduction to the basic concepts that underlie this quantum information revolution and describe major challenges as well as recent remarkable experimental progress in the race to build quantum machines for computing, sensing and communication."\n \n For more information, visit https://frib.msu.edu/news/2022/rohlfing.html\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Bob Patterer\n Contact phone: 517-908-7573\n Contact email: events@frib.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://frib.msu.edu/news/2022/rohlfing.html\n LOCATION:Facility for Rare Isotope Beams END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20221007T140000Z UID:1663300652740@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Training DTSTART:20221007T140000Z DTEND:20221007T160000Z SUMMARY:Mendeley Workshop-Demonstration & Q&A DESCRIPTION: This is a basic introduction to the citation management program Mendeley.

What's missing is an origins story, of how Darwinian evolution might have first arisen from physics and chemistry at the origins of life 3.5 billion years ago. Such a story is now emerging, based on the synthesis and folding of short protein molecules that catalyze the elongation of others. I will describe these ideas, and how they address some of the controversies in the field, including what drives it, how it is an anti-thermodynamic tendency away from-not towards-equilibrium, and how it is self-serving and able to increase complexity.\n \n Bio:\n Ken Dill is the director of the Laufer Center for Physical and Quantitative Biology at Stony Brook University and the Louis and Beatrice Laufer Professor of Physics and Chemistry. He received bachelor's and master of science degrees from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in mechanical engineering in 1971, a PhD in biology with Bruno H. Zimm at the University of California, San Diego, did postdoctoral research with Paul J. Flory at Stanford University, and was on the faculty of the University of California San Francisco for 25 years.\n \n His research is at the intersection of statistical physics with the biophysics of proteins and cells. He has worked on the physics of protein folding, computational structural biology, proteostasis in the cell, and on foundational problems in nonequilibrium statistical physics.\n \n Dill is a past president of the Biophysical Society and a co-author of two textbooks. He received the Hans Neurath Award from the Protein Society, the Max Delbruck Award from the American Physical Society, and the Sackler Prize in Biophysics. Dill is a member of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Bob Patterer\n Contact email: events@frib.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://frib.msu.edu/gateway/events/talk-ken-dill.html \n LOCATION:Zoom - Facility for Rare Isotope Beams END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20221113T190000Z UID:1665597069075@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20221113T190000Z DTEND:20221113T210000Z SUMMARY:Screen Print Sundays DESCRIPTION: We're turning 10 this year!

For Julie Mehretu, internationally acclaimed artist and former long-time resident of East Lansing, Michigan, geographic themes and concepts, including social behavior, space, and place, have always been a central theme in her life and are often woven throughout her artwork. This unique intersection of art and geography will be the focus of "Decolonialism and the Political Landscape in Visual Practice, a discussion with Julie Mehretu." This engaging conversation organized by the Michigan State University Department of Geography, Environment and Spatial Sciences is free and open to the public and will be held on Monday, November 14, 2022, at 7:00 PM at the Eli Broad College of Business. \n \n\n Price: Free and open to the public\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Diane Huhn\n Contact phone: (517) 355-4649\n Contact email: huhndian@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://geo.msu.edu/news-events/news/2022-10-24-gaw-mehretu.html\n LOCATION:MSU Business College Complex, N130 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20221115T003000Z UID:1666291638219@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

Professor Leonard M. Fleck, PhD, will present on "Precision Medicine and Distributive Justice: Wicked Problems for Democratic Deliberation." Registration is open: https://bit.ly/bioethics-fleck\n \n Description:\n Metastatic cancer and costly precision medicines generate extremely complex problems of health care justice. Targeted cancer therapies yield only very marginal gains in life expectancy for most patients at very great cost, thereby threatening the just allocation of limited health care resources. Philosophic theories of justice cannot address adequately the "wicked" ethical problems associated with these targeted therapies. Following Rawls, Fleck argues for a political conception of health care justice, and a fair and inclusive process of democratic deliberation governed by public reason. The virtue of democratic deliberation is that citizens can fashion autonomously and publicly shared understandings to fairly address the complex problems of health care justice generated by precision medicine. "Wicked" problems can metastasize if rationing decisions are made invisibly. A fair and inclusive process of democratic deliberation can make these "wicked" problems visible, and subject, to fair public reason constraints. What constrained choices do you believe you would endorse with your fellow citizens as being "just enough"?\n\n Price: Free\n Sponsor: Center for Bioethics and Social Justice\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.bioethics.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Liz McDaniel\n Contact email: center@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://bioethics.msu.edu/public-seminars/22-23-series\n LOCATION:Virtual END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20221116T230000Z UID:1665597393256@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20221116T230000Z DTEND:20221117T010000Z SUMMARY:An Evening with Craig Kiner of Zaha Hadid Architects DESCRIPTION: Have you ever wondered why the MSU Broad Art Museum looks the way it does?

Below 2.17 K, bulk helium-4 is superfluid. Motivated by this intriguing behavior, the properties of finite-sized helium droplets have been studied extensively over the past 30 years or so. Some properties of liquid helium-4 droplets are, just as those of nuclei, well described by the liquid drop model. The existence of the extremely fragile helium dimer was proven experimentally in 1994 in diffraction grating experiments. Since then, appreciable effort has gone into creating and characterizing trimers, tetramers, and larger clusters. The excited state of the helium trimer is particularly interesting since it is an Efimov state. The existence of Efimov states, which are unique due to scale invariance and an associated limit cycle, was predicted in 1971. However, till 2015, Efimov states had-although their existence had been confirmed experimentally-not been imaged directly. Ingenious experimental advances that utilize femtosecond lasers have made it possible to directly image the static quantum mechanical density distribution of helium dimers and trimers. This talk will highlight recent experimental and theoretical work on the helium dimer, helium trimer, and helium droplets.\n \n Bio\n Doerte Blume (she/her/hers) received her PhD in physics in 1998 from the Georg-August University, Goettingen, Germany. After two and a half years of postdoctoral work at JILA/University of Colorado in Boulder, she took up a faculty position in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at Washington State University in the beautiful inland Northwest. In the summer of 2017, Doerte relocated to the Homer L. Dodge Department of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Oklahoma. Doerte is a Fellow of the American Physical Society (APS), a recipient of a Bush Lectureship at the University of Oklahoma, and a Meyer Distinguished Professorship at Washington State University.

Doerte regularly co-organizes conferences of varying size, including the Conference for Undergraduate Women in Physics in 2020. In addition, she has served the scientific community as a member of the APS Division of Atomic, Molecular and Optical Physics (DAMOP) Executive Committee, Remote Associate Editor of Physical Review A, Chair of the APS Few-Body Topical Group, and member of the APS Committee on Scientific Publications.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Bob Patterer\n Contact email: events@frib.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://msu.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_j4zp2z2SRPCTzH8pGS4P4A\n LOCATION:Zoom - Facility for Rare Isotope Beams END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20230109T050000Z UID:1669651372414-0036@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20230109 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20230110 SUMMARY:Winter Warmth Drive DESCRIPTION: Detroit Street Care is looking for items to keep our unhoused friends warm this winter!\n \n For more information please contact Vanessa Najjar at najjarva@msu.edu\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Detroit Street Care\n Contact name: Vanessa Najjar\n Contact email: najjarva@msu.edu\n LOCATION:DMC Break Room END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20230110T050000Z UID:1669651372414-0037@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20230110 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20230111 SUMMARY:Winter Warmth Drive DESCRIPTION: Detroit Street Care is looking for items to keep our unhoused friends warm this winter!\n \n For more information please contact Vanessa Najjar at najjarva@msu.edu\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Detroit Street Care\n Contact name: Vanessa Najjar\n Contact email: najjarva@msu.edu\n LOCATION:DMC Break Room END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20230111T050000Z UID:1669651372414-0038@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20230111 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20230112 SUMMARY:Winter Warmth Drive DESCRIPTION: Detroit Street Care is looking for items to keep our unhoused friends warm this winter!\n \n For more information please contact Vanessa Najjar at najjarva@msu.edu\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Detroit Street Care\n Contact name: Vanessa Najjar\n Contact email: najjarva@msu.edu\n LOCATION:DMC Break Room END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20230112T050000Z UID:1669651372414-0039@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20230112 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20230113 SUMMARY:Winter Warmth Drive DESCRIPTION: Detroit Street Care is looking for items to keep our unhoused friends warm this winter!\n \n For more information please contact Vanessa Najjar at najjarva@msu.edu\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Detroit Street Care\n Contact name: Vanessa Najjar\n Contact email: najjarva@msu.edu\n LOCATION:DMC Break Room END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20230112T153000Z UID:1668574309393@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Training DTSTART:20230112T153000Z DTEND:20230112T170000Z SUMMARY:Stable Links Workshop DESCRIPTION: This workshop will take place on ZOOM, and registered attendees will receive an email the day before the scheduled workshop containing the meeting ID and password. Questions can be emailed to leekrist@msu.edu.\n \n Although many understand the value of sharing online library resources such as e-journal articles, e-book chapters, or streaming media in D2L or other course-related materials, the process for doing so is not intuitive or transparent. To complicate matters, copyright compliance and licensing agreements require the use of appropriate stable links for integration of proprietary content in a course. This Stable Links for Electronic Resources workshop will guide participants through the process of integrating journal articles, e-book chapters, or streaming media into their course(s). Instructions for creating stable links in various platforms will be provided and participants will gain hands-on experience in successfully integrating stable links into D2L and other course-related materials.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lib.msu.edu\n Contact name: Holly Flynn\n Contact phone: 517-884-0901\n Contact email: flynnhol@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://bookings.lib.msu.edu/event/9880367\n LOCATION:Online END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20230113T050000Z UID:1669651372414-0040@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20230113 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20230114 SUMMARY:Winter Warmth Drive DESCRIPTION: Detroit Street Care is looking for items to keep our unhoused friends warm this winter!\n \n For more information please contact Vanessa Najjar at najjarva@msu.edu\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Detroit Street Care\n Contact name: Vanessa Najjar\n Contact email: najjarva@msu.edu\n LOCATION:DMC Break Room END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20230113T230000Z UID:1669752362151@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

Fast fashion in particular encourages consumers to discard clothes after only a few wears and continuously buy more. However, there is a growing movement toward sustainable clothing, one that is more fashion-forward than you might think. In this conversation, we will hear from experts on earth-friendly textile design, eco-certification, and the future of Gen Z fashion. Moderated by Mary Worrall, MSU Museum curator of textiles and social justice.

It will be rescheduled for a future date to be determined.\n \n Join us for this free webinar from Michelle T. Pham, PhD, presented as part of the 2022-2023 Bioethics Public Seminar Series. Register: https://bit.ly/bioethics-pham\n \n The World Society for Stereotactic and Functional Neurosurgery has argued that at least two successful randomized controlled trials should be available before deep brain stimulation (DBS) treatment for a psychiatric disorder is considered "established." DBS is currently offered to children ages 7 and older with refractory dystonia under an FDA-humanitarian device exemption. No randomized control trials were conducted - practitioners relied on evidence from DBS use in adults. In addition, accumulated research supports the safety and effectiveness of DBS for obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) in adults (Wu et al. 2021). Approximately 10-20% of children with OCD have treatment-resistant presentations, so it is likely that there will be interest in offering DBS for some children (POTS 2004). Both ethical and empirical anticipatory work is needed to evaluate whether, and if so, under what conditions it might be appropriate to offer DBS in this context. This seminar will present qualitative data from semi-structured interviews with 24 clinicians with expertise in this area regarding: (a) acceptable levels of evidence to offer DBS in this patient population and (b) institutional policies or protocols needed to effectively provide care for them.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Center for Bioethics and Social Justice\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.bioethics.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Liz McDaniel\n Contact email: center@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://bioethics.msu.edu/public-seminars/22-23-series\n LOCATION:Virtual (Zoom webinar) END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20230215T210000Z UID:1670858517123@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Training DTSTART:20230215T210000Z DTEND:20230215T223000Z SUMMARY:Learn QGIS: Making a color shaded map in QGIS (In Person) DESCRIPTION: Learn the basics of QGIS, the free open-source geospatial software-this workshop will demonstrate how to make a choropleth (color shaded) map and place graduated symbols representing data on it, load shape-files and .csv table files into QGIS, join data to spatial information and edit features. \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lib.msu.edu\n Contact name: Holly Flynn\n Contact phone: 517-884-0901\n Contact email: flynnhol@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://bookings.lib.msu.edu/event/9961827\n LOCATION:Main Library END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20230215T210000Z UID:1670858618144@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Training DTSTART:20230215T210000Z DTEND:20230215T223000Z SUMMARY:Learn QGIS: Making a color shaded map in QGIS (Online) DESCRIPTION: Learn the basics of QGIS, the free open-source geospatial software-this workshop will demonstrate how to make a choropleth (color shaded) map and place graduated symbols representing data on it, load shape-files and .csv table files into QGIS, join data to spatial information and edit features. \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lib.msu.edu\n Contact name: Holly Flynn\n Contact phone: 517-884-0901\n Contact email: flynnhol@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://bookings.lib.msu.edu/event/9961834\n LOCATION:Online END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20230216T003000Z UID:1675366827681@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Public Programs DTSTART:20230216T003000Z DTEND:20230216T023000Z SUMMARY:Fire of Love | Film Screening DESCRIPTION: Fire of Love tells the story of two French lovers, Katia and Maurice Krafft, who died in a volcanic explosion doing the very thing that brought them together: unraveling the mysteries of our planet, while simultaneously capturing the most explosive volcano imagery ever recorded.

In 2015, gravitational wave detectors, such as the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO), "heard" the first waves from the collisions of black holes and neutron stars. These astronomical data are telling a story of our universe that is shaping the future of astronomy and physics. Join me in exploring some of what that story is teaching us about our astounding universe.\n \n Bio\n Deirdre Shoemaker is a physics professor and the director of the Center for Gravitational Physics at the University of Texas at Austin and a member of the Weinberg Institute. Her research interests center on black holes and gravitational waves, understanding these and other aspects of strong gravity, and how it reveals itself in the universe. To that end, Shoemaker works with gravitational wave detector teams to work toward understanding gravitational physics. Shoemaker is a member of LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Cosmic Explorer Consortium, and the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) Consortium where she co-chairs the Waveform Working Group. She has won the National Science Foundation (NSF) Career award and is a fellow of the American Physical Society. \n \n She received her bachelor's degree in physics, astronomy, and astrophysics from the Pennsylvania State University and her PhD in Physics from the University of Texas at Austin. She was a postdoctoral fellow at Penn State and Cornell University before joining the faculty at Penn State in 2004. She moved to the School of Physics at the Georgia Institute of Technology in 2008 and to the Department of Physics at the University of Texas at Austin in 2020.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Faye Watson\n Contact email: watsonf@frib.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://msu.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_BwrEl2goTsqCfOhor4ul_Q\n LOCATION:ZOOM - click more information to register END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20230219T190000Z UID:1671643630212@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Public Programs DTSTART:20230219T190000Z DTEND:20230219T210000Z SUMMARY:SpARTan Wellness: PAPERCUT SCREEN PRINTING DESCRIPTION: Hey, MSU students-stress less at the MSU Broad Art Museum with this monthly making series.

Register: https://bit.ly/bioethics-marathe.\n \n This talk examines how doctors and patients distinguish between normal and pathological events through the case of epilepsy. Epilepsy is a chronic illness and disability characterized by recurrent and unpredictable seizures. Seizures are transient events during which people lose control over parts of body-mind function. The talk shows that the diagnostic boundary between seizure and non-seizure events is fluid, dynamic, and porous in lived experience and medical practice. Calling an event a seizure has consequences well beyond treatment, also affecting a patient's financial stability, social participation, and life aspirations. Hence, doctors and patients take an expedient approach to classifying seizures, informally modifying the very definition of seizure to postpone or avoid severe consequences. Doing so enables doctors and patients to bend rigid classification schemes to suit the complex realities of people's lives. This work advances scholarship on classification and expertise in information studies, science and technology studies, and disability studies.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Center for Bioethics and Social Justice\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.bioethics.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Liz McDaniel\n Contact email: center@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://bioethics.msu.edu/public-seminars/22-23-series\n LOCATION:Virtual (Zoom webinar) END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20230322T230000Z UID:1676664115287@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Public Programs DTSTART:20230322T230000Z DTEND:20230323T010000Z SUMMARY:Speak Up: Performance Poetry Workshop DESCRIPTION: How can poetry be used as a tool for liberation?

U.S. allies and partners are vulnerable to new threats and to new forms of nuclear-backed coercion. The risk of Russian nuclear employment in Ukraine has crystallized concern about rising nuclear risks. At the same time, the arms control framework is at the brink of collapse. At this watershed moment, U.S. nuclear strategy and posture have been slow to adapt. But important changes are likely coming to the U.S. practice of deterrence, extended deterrence, strategic stability, and arms control. The choices ahead for U.S. policymakers require informed public debate.\n \n SPEAKER INFO: Dr. Brad Roberts has served as director of the Center for Global Security Research at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory since 2015. From 2009 to 2013, he was Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Nuclear and Missile Defense Policy. In this role, he served as policy director of the Obama administration's Nuclear Posture Review and Ballistic Missile Defense Review and led their implementation. Prior to entering government service, Dr. Roberts was a research fellow at the Institute for Defense Analyses and the Center for Strategic and International Studies, editor of The Washington Quarterly, and an adjunct professor at George Washington University. Between leaving the Office of the Secretary of Defense in 2013 and assuming his current responsibilities, Dr. Roberts was a consulting professor at Stanford University and William Perry Fellow at the Center for International Security and Cooperation (CISAC). While at CISAC, he authored a book entitled "The Case for U.S. Nuclear Weapons" in the 21st Century, which won the Choice Award for Outstanding Academic Title in 2016. \n \n Reception to follow\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Bob Patterer\n Contact email: events@frib.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://frib.msu.edu/news/2023/roberts-lecture.html\n LOCATION:Facility for Rare Isotope Beams END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20230408T000000Z UID:1675367888340@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Public Programs DTSTART:20230408T000000Z DTEND:20230408T020000Z SUMMARY:First Fridays for College Students - Neon Fashion Night DESCRIPTION: Tickets are free, but limited, so reserve your spot now!\n \n "Neon Fashion Night"\n Join the MSU Museum and MSU SciComm for their first science and art neon fashion show representing the intersectionality of sustainability and fashion.

McCurdy, PhD, BSN, MH, HEC-C, presented as part of the 2022-2023 Bioethics Public Seminar Series. Register: https://bit.ly/bioethics-mccurdy\n \n According to U.S. law and The Uniform Determination of Death Act (UDDA), an individual can be declared dead by either cardiac or neurological criteria. The latter, known colloquially as brain death, allows a physician to withdraw patients from medical devices against the wishes of families and other surrogates. While once seemingly settled, the concept of death by neurological criteria has increasingly become a topic of controversy, both technically and philosophically. This seminar will argue that the UDDA should make New Jersey-style legal exemptions to brain death declaration a national guideline, thus allowing individuals to claim a religious exemption when they disagree that brain death is, in fact, death. Why? Because the concept of brain death is based on a specific eurochristian worldview that is not held in common by many reasonable people in U.S. society. The imposition of those unshared worldviews on patients and their loved ones through force of law causes unjustified and avoidable trauma, furthers epistemic injustices, and generates distrust.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Center for Bioethics and Social Justice\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.bioethics.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Liz McDaniel\n Contact email: center@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://bioethics.msu.edu/public-seminars/22-23-series\n LOCATION:Virtual (Zoom webinar) END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20230419T230000Z UID:1679580950117@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20230419T230000Z DTEND:20230420T010000Z SUMMARY:Student Night: Dreams DESCRIPTION: Student Nights are designed just for MSU students, by MSU students.

On 17 August 2017, scientists detected for the first time gravitational waves from two merging neutron stars from deep space (neutron stars are the dense cores left over when the outer layers of massive stars explode at the end of their lives). This discovery initiated a world-wide search for an electromagnetic "afterglow" of the merger event, using dozens of the largest telescopes on the ground and in space. Within hours, fading blue light, unlike that which had ever been seen before, was discovered from a galaxy 100 million light years from Earth. For me personally, the most exciting aspect of this discovery was that it "made sense": the observations agreed with theoretical predictions myself and colleagues had made a decade ago. We were witnessing, for the first time in the debris of the merger, the direct creation in nature of the heaviest elements in the universe, including the precious metals such as gold, silver, and platinum. In this talk, I will recount the amazing discovery of gravitational waves, merging neutron stars, and the next steps of our path towards identifying the origin of gold."\n \n Presenter\n Brian Metzger\n \n Brian Metzger was born and raised in Burlington, Iowa. He received his bachelor's degrees at the University of Iowa and his PhD in physics at the University of California Berkeley in 2009. He held a NASA Einstein Postdoctoral Fellowship at Princeton University, before joining the Columbia University department of physics in 2013, where he is currently a full professor. He is also a senior research scientist in the Center for Computational Astrophysics of the Flatiron Institute.

This unique combination sought to bring some of the most unknown gems in music history to the global audience, and explore this lush and colorful instrumentation. Since its inauguration, the Accorda Trio has performed repertoire that ranges from classical Haydn to the French giant, Ibert, and 21st-century composers such as Ricardo Lorenz. Their upcoming debut album will be released in 2024.\n \n Daniel Tressel\n Cellist and composer Daniel Tressel divides his time among composing, performing, and teaching. After receiving a master's and bachelor's degree in cello performance from the University of Nevada and the University of Illinois, respectively, Tressel went on to receive his doctor of musical arts degree in music composition from MSU where he studied under Dr. Ricardo Lorenz.\n \n As a cellist, Tressel has performed as a soloist with the Livingston Symphony, University of Nevada Symphony and Glenbrook Symphony Orchestra.

I am interested in whether there are new elementary particles which have long lifetimes being produced in the proton-proton collisions at the Large Hadron Collider in Switzerland. In this lecture I will discuss the work of Goeppert-Mayer done before 1960 and the work we are doing presently at CERN.\n \n Bio\n Melissa Franklin is an experimental particle physicist who studies proton-proton collisions produced by Large Hadron Collider (LHC). She is a collaborator on the ATLAS experiment at the LHC where she works in collaboration with over 3,000 physicists. Franklin was co-discoverer of the top quark and the Higgs boson. She is presently studying the properties of the Higgs boson and searching for new physics beyond the Standard Model. Professor Franklin, born and raised in Canada, received her bachelor of science degree from the University of Toronto and her PhD from Stanford University. She worked as a post-doctoral fellow at Lawrence Berkeley Lab, was an assistant professor at the University of Illinois in Champagne/Urbana and was a Junior Fellow in the Society of Fellows at Harvard, before joining the Harvard faculty in 1989. In 1992, she became the first woman to receive tenure in the Physics department and she served as chair of the Physics department from 2010-2014.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Bob Patterer\n Contact email: events@frib.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://msu.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_NP9Bs1d7R5i9ltsc6Deebw\n LOCATION:VIRTUAL END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20230514T190000Z UID:1666968161043@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

Right before the explosion, the collapsed star emits a brilliant (but almost invisible) flash of neutrinos. Neutrinos are ghostly particles that can fly through matter as if it were transparent. I will describe how we can catch some of these neutrinos in vast underground detectors. The neutrinos we observe will give us an early warning of the impending supernova, and will allow us to see what's happening inside the exploding star and possibly witness the birth of a black hole."\n \n Bio\n Kate Scholberg is the Arts and Sciences Distinguished Professor of Physics and a Bass Fellow at Duke University. Scholberg's broad research interests include experimental elementary particle physics, nuclear physics, astrophysics, and cosmology; her specific interests in neutrino physics lie at the intersection of these areas. Scholberg is a member of the Super-Kamiokande, Tokai-to-Kamioka (T2K), and Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) neutrino experimental collaborations.

With the increase of healthcare data diversity and heterogeneity, it is more difficult for physicians to make the best clinical decision. AI provides valuable support in addressing this. Recent advance in Large Language Models (LLMs), such as OpenAI ChatGPT and Google Bard have demonstrated amazing performance in clinical reasoning, clinical note auto-generation, based on smart data integration and fusion from multimodalities. Kai Zhang, a PhD candidate from Lehigh University, will delve into this direction, from its capability of revolutionizing various healthcare domains from radiography and disease prediction, to its significant challenges such as data privacy laws like HIPAA and issues related to data quality persist. He will also discuss limitations and look toward the future, envisioning an ecosystem where AI becomes an integral part of next-generation healthcare from the perspective of a computer scientist. Kai proposed the first generalist AI model for biomedicine in the world named BiomedGPT while visiting Mayo Clinic. \n https://msu.zoom.us/j/98087670821?pwd=YnJBT0ZZaWZwbEhmWkdpaCtYemdiUT09 \n Passcode: 962442\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: student\n Contact name: Na Dai\n Contact email: daina@msu.edu\n LOCATION:Remote via Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231005T170000Z UID:1692280262758@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:International Events (Study Abroad, ...)

The trio's name pays tribute to the composer of their inaugural performance piece, Czech composer Vítězslav Novák's Trio in D Minor. This relatively obscure chamber composition not only prompted Novak Trio's formation but also ignited their dedication to performing not only lesser-known pieces but also those by underrepresented composers. Their recent accolade includes securing the third prize at the esteemed 2023 Barbara Wagner Chamber Music Competition. Together, they have honed their skills under the tutelage of Yvonne Lam. \n \n Feng Kang, the Taiwanese pianist, is currently in his third year and is guided by Derek Polischuk. Natasha Kubit, the violinist, also in her third year, is a student of Dmitri Berlinsky. Yu-Chen Lin, the cellist, is a second-year student refining her craft under the mentorship of Surgei Bagratuni.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Bob Patterer\n Contact email: events@frib.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://frib.msu.edu/gateway/events/concert-13oct2023.html\n LOCATION:Facility for Rare Isotope Beams END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231015T180000Z UID:1696527871910@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Exhibits (Museum, Gardens, ...)

For example, superconductivity, an emergent quantum phenomenon in which electrons move without dissipating energy, has been exploited for devices that enable quantum computing and communications. In addition, modern electronics rely heavily on technology that confines electrons in the interfacial atomic layers, where the electrons move in an effective two-dimensional (2D) space, a flatland. The unique properties of these low-dimensional material systems are generally understood by considering enhanced quantum effects. In recent years, scientists have discovered that they can stack atomically thin 2D quantum materials to create engineered materials with a wide variety of electronic and optical properties. In this talk, we will discuss several research efforts to realize emergent physical phenomena in stacked atomically thin layered materials and possible applications based on these materials."\n \n Bio\n Professor Philip Kim received his bachelor's degree in physics at Seoul National University in 1990 and received his PhD in Applied Physics from Harvard University in 1999. He was a Miller Postdoctoral Fellow in Physics from University of California, Berkeley during 1999-2001. He joined the Department of Physics at Columbia University as a faculty member during 2002-2014. Since 2014, he has held a post at Harvard University, where he is a professor of physics and applied physics. \n \n The focus of Kim's group research is the mesoscopic investigation of transport phenomena, particularly, electric, thermal, and thermoelectrical properties of low dimensional nanoscale materials. These materials include carbon nanotubes, organic and inorganic nanowires, 2-dimensional mesoscopic single crystals, and single organic molecules. Kim has also received numerous honors and awards, including: the Benjamin Franklin Medal in Physics (2023); Tomassoni-Chisesi Prizes (2018); the Oliver E. Buckley Prize, American Physical Society (2014); the Dresden Barkhausen Award (2012); and the Ho-Am Science Prize (2008). He is an elected member of the National Science of Academy (2023) and the American Academy of Arts and Science (2020).

The irony is that as Putin and his coterie threaten nuclear holocaust with a technology that is nearly 100 years old, the Ukrainians have shown a remarkable ability to innovate, using off-the-shelf technology and their command of rocket science to shape the fight to their advantage. This interplay of old and new holds a number of risks for both combatants: they are walking a thin line between deterring each other and achieving their military objectives. Rose Gottemoeller will talk about the future implications of these dynamics for defense and security policy."\n \n Bio\n https://cisac.fsi.stanford.edu/people/rose-gottemoeller\n Rose Gottemoeller is a Lecturer at Stanford University's Freeman Spogli Institute for International Studies and Research Fellow at the Hoover Institute.\n Before joining Stanford Gottemoeller was the Deputy Secretary General of NATO from 2016 to 2019, where she helped to drive forward NATO's adaptation to new security challenges in Europe and in the fight against terrorism. Prior to NATO, she served for nearly five years as the Under Secretary for Arms Control and International Security at the U.S. Department of State, advising the Secretary of State on arms control, nonproliferation and political-military affairs. While Assistant Secretary of State for Arms Control, Verification and Compliance in 2009 and 2010, she was the chief U.S. negotiator of the New Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty (New START) with the Russian Federation.\n Prior to her government service, she was a senior associate with the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, with joint appointments to the Nonproliferation and Russia programs. She served as the Director of the Carnegie Moscow Center from 2006 to 2008, and is currently a nonresident fellow in Carnegie's Nuclear Policy Program. She is also a research fellow at the Hoover Institution. \n At Stanford, Gottemoeller teaches and mentors students in the Ford Dorsey Master's in International Policy program and the CISAC Honors program; contributes to policy research and outreach activities; and convenes workshops, seminars and other events relating to her areas of expertise, including nuclear security, Russian relations, the NATO alliance, EU cooperation and non-proliferation.\n \n There will be a special reception immediately preceding the lecture in the area outside of room 1300.\n The Distinguished Nuclear Policy Lecture series is a partnership between Michigan State University's James Madison College and FRIB that brings global policy experts to campus for talks about the political and scientific communities.\n This lecture series brings together experts and scholars from diverse backgrounds to discuss issues related to nuclear policy, arms control, and non-proliferation. The lectures provide insights, analysis, and perspectives on the current challenges and opportunities in the evolving field of nuclear policy.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Bob Patterer\n Contact email: events@frib.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://frib.msu.edu/gateway/index.html\n LOCATION:640 S Shaw Lane, Rm 1300 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231028T230000Z UID:1698200396148@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20231028T230000Z DTEND:20231029T020000Z SUMMARY:4th Annual Halloween SpooktARCular DESCRIPTION: Join Arc, the GSCC, UAB, and W*SS for an evening of Halloween excitement!

The ensemble has played for many esteemed musicians such as Branford Marsalis, members of Eighth Blackbird, Stacy Garrop, Christopher Creviston, h2 Quartet, and Taimur Sullivan. All members of the quartet value the kind of brotherhood and camaraderie that blossoms while playing chamber music.\n \n Quartet Fiume is a newly formed saxophone quartet consisting of graduate students from Michigan State University: Nathan Salazar, Parker Fritz, Owen Kilpatrick, and Michael Keeler, studying with Professor Joseph Lulloff. Quartet Fiume's members have previously been recognized in a number of national competitions, such as the NASA Collegiate Solo and Saxophone Quartet Competitions, the Music Teachers National Association (MTNA) Young Artist and Chamber Winds Competition, Fischoff National Chamber Music Competition, and the Coltman Chamber Music Competition.

Few predicted that Russia would launch an all-out war against Ukraine in February 2022, and even when intelligence leaks showed that Russia was preparing to attack, many did not believe it. Yet, in retrospect, this war was inevitable for reasons of history, geography, and personalities involved. Eugene Rumer will speak to why these drivers of Russian security policy matter so much and why this war with Ukraine and confrontation with the West will last a long time."\n \n Bio\n https://carnegieendowment.org/experts/917\n Eugene Rumer is a senior fellow and the director of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace Russia and Eurasia Program.\n Prior to joining Carnegie, Rumer was the national intelligence officer for Russia and Eurasia at the U.S. National Intelligence Council from 2010 to 2014. Earlier, he held research appointments at the National Defense University, the International Institute for Strategic Studies, and the RAND Corporation, and served at the U.S. Department of State and on the National Security Council staff.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Bob Patterer\n Contact email: events@frib.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://frib.msu.edu/public/policy-lecture/talk-rumer.html\n LOCATION:Facility for Rare Isotope Beams END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231113T230000Z UID:1698075716847@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20231113T230000Z DTEND:20231114T000000Z SUMMARY:Spartan Street Medicine Scribe Training DESCRIPTION: Spartan Street Medicine (SSM) will be hosting Scribe Training to those who received approval to become a scribe. \n \n For any questions please contact Jackson Joseph at Joseph93@msu.edu\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: student\n Contact name: Jackson Joseph\n Contact email: Joseph93@msu.edu\n LOCATION:Fee Hall, EL E202 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231114T050000Z UID:1697775489483-0014@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20231114 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20231115 SUMMARY:Donation boxes located in MUC & DMC student lounge and EL East Fee Hall lobby DESCRIPTION: Student Osteopathic Medical Association is hosting a toy drive to benefit Ronald McDonald House Lansing and Detroit locations and Care House in Macomb.

Doors open at 3:30 p.m., and the screening begins at 4 p.m. At the conclusion of the film, around 5 p.m., a student moderator will facilitate a half-hour expert panel discussion combined with an audience Q & A session.\n \n This free and public event is presented in partnership with WKAR, Student Life & Engagement, student Eco Reps, and the Film Studies Program. \n \n ABOUT THE FILM:\n Aired in 2020, Plastic Wars briefly highlights the history of how we got into this plastic pollution mess to begin with and reminds viewers of its relationship to the oil industry. In doing so, the film illustrates the challenges consumers face when trying to reduce single-use plastics -- an action that runs counter to the profit motives of oil companies. \n \n Through investigative journalism and interviews with insiders, Plastic Wars brings to light the ways in which plastic production and disposal often exacerbate environmental and social justice issues across the globe. \n \n The film addresses some of the myths and truths around the impact of recycling and offers insight on why the legitimacy of recycling has been questioned in recent years. While Plastic Wars remains focused on recycling, it doesn't shy away from showing us why that isn't the only solution we need. \n \n PANELISTS:\n --Sean Barton, Diversion Coordinator at the MSU Surplus Store & Recycling Center, who manages the material recovery facility and day-to-day waste diversion operations.\n --Jill Brown, Account Executive at Metro Recycling Solutions, the brokerage company that connects MSU Recycling to local and regional buyers who turn recyclable material into feedstock.\n --Pedro Noel Doreste, Postdoctoral Fellow at the Diaspora Solidarities Lab, incoming Assistant Professor in Film Studies at MSU, and documentary film researcher.\n --Muhammad Rabnawaz, associate professor in MSU's School of Packaging, lead researcher for the Sustainable Materials Group, and recent inductee into the National Academy of Inventors.\n \n MORE INFO:\n The panel discussion will be moderated by MSU student Dani Vincent, who works as the Sustainability Assistant with Student Life & Engagement and is majoring in Environmental Studies & Sustainability.\n \n Before and after the film, attendees will have the opportunity to explore the MRF and see how MSU processes plastics and other campus recyclables before shipping them to local and regional vendors for conversion into post-consumer recycled content. Find out how MSU keeps it local, sending 95% of bales to Michigan processors! \n \n RSVP is strongly encouraged for planning purposes, please visit https://bit.ly/upcyclefall23\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Katie Deska\n Contact phone: 5178986771\n Contact email: deskakat@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://msurecycling.com/news-stories/plastic-wars-documentary-screening/\n LOCATION:MSU Recycling Center END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231116T203000Z UID:1698107218467@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20231116T203000Z DTEND:20231116T223000Z SUMMARY:Sigma Sigma Phi Volunteer Event DESCRIPTION: Volunteers will be serving dinner at Capuchin Soup Kitchen. \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: student\n Contact name: Nikila Nallabelli\n Contact email: nallabe1@msu.edu\n LOCATION:4390 Conner, Detroit MI 48215 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231116T212000Z UID:1699406669518@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20231116T212000Z DTEND:20231116T220000Z SUMMARY:Heme/Onc Osteopathic Student Association Virtual Panel: How to get started with research DESCRIPTION: Hear from a diverse panel of oncology professionals on research options in oncology, how they found their first project and mentor, and their practical advice for exploring your research interests.

Working on our project Assumptions of Physics, which aims to find a minimal set of physical starting points from which the laws of physics can be rederived, gave us a different perspective. In this talk we will discuss seven ideas that most physicists take for granted without realizing and which, as it turns out, steer us in the wrong direction. Surpassing these misconceptions leads us to a new understanding of what the laws of physics are, the relationship between physics and mathematics, and what the ultimate goal of the foundations of physics should be."\n \n Bio\n Gabriele Carcassi received his degree in informatics engineering in 2000 from the Politecnico di Milano, Italy. He worked for twenty years in software and computing in support of large-scale accelerator facilities and experiments, from control systems and databases, to wide area network data management and security. For the past decade he has had an increasing focus on foundational issues in physics, which he now pursues full time. He has been a researcher in the Physics Department at the University of Michigan since 2012. He is particularly interested in the boundaries between foundations of physics, foundations of mathematics and philosophy of science.\n \n Christine Aidala received her bachelor's degree in physics and music from Yale University in 1999 and her PhD in physics from Columbia University in 2005. After a postdoctoral position with the University of Massachusetts Amherst, she was a Frederick Reines Distinguished Postdoctoral Fellow and then staff scientist with Los Alamos National Laboratory until joining the faculty at the University of Michigan in 2012. In addition to her theoretical work on the foundations of physics, she performs experimental research in high-energy nuclear physics, studying the internal structure of the proton.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Bob Patterer\n Contact email: events@fribm.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://msu.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_JuP9eUJUSJSvLv5870CZIQ\n LOCATION:Virtual END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231211T130000Z UID:1701736022921@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20231211T130000Z DTEND:20231211T153000Z SUMMARY:Sigma Sigma Phi Volunteer Event DESCRIPTION: Volunteers will be preparing food at Capuchin Soup Kitchen. \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: student\n Contact name: Nikila Nallabelli\n Contact email: nallabe1@msu.edu\n LOCATION:4390 Conner, Detroit MI 48215 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231211T150000Z UID:1702002039504@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20231211T150000Z DTEND:20231211T170000Z SUMMARY:Finals Week Kickstart DESCRIPTION: Kickstart your finals week and bring some joy to your morning with UAB!

Our work shows that a primary mechanism through which anesthetics create these altered states of arousal is by initiating and maintaining highly structured oscillations. These oscillations impair communication among brain regions. We illustrate this effect by presenting findings from our human and non-human primate studies using high-density EEG recordings and intracranial recordings. These studies have allowed us to give a detailed characterization of the neurophysiology of loss and recovery of consciousness due to propofol, and more recently ketamine. We show how these dynamics change systematically with different anesthetic classes and with age. As a consequence, we have developed a principled, neuroscience-based paradigm for using the EEG to monitor the brain states of patients receiving general anesthesia. We demonstrate that the state of general anesthesia can be rapidly reversed by activating specific brain circuits. Finally, we demonstrate that the state of general anesthesia can be controlled using closed-loop feedback control systems. The success of our research has depended critically on tight coupling of experiments, signal processing research and mathematical modeling."\n \n Bio\n Emery N. Brown is the Edward Hood Taplin Professor of Medical Engineering and Computational Neuroscience at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT); the Warren M. Zapol Professor of Anesthesia at Harvard Medical School; and an anesthesiologist at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH). \n \n He received his bachelor's degree in Applied Mathematics (magna cum laude) from Harvard College, his master's degree and PhD in statistics from Harvard University and his doctor of medicine degree (magna cum laude) from Harvard Medical School. Brown completed his internship in internal medicine at the Brigham and Women's Hospital and his anesthesiology residency at MGH. \n \n Brown is an anesthesiologist-statistician whose research is defining the neuroscience of how anesthetics produce the states of general anesthesia.

DESCRIPTION: "The fundamental particles of nature are indistinguishable-you cannot tell one electron from another by the color of its hair, or the shape of its ears, or the way it laughs. A basic tenet of quantum mechanics is that all elementary particles are either bosons or fermions. Loosely speaking, bosons like to flock together while fermions are solitary creatures that tend to repel each other. Ensembles of bosons or fermions behave differently due to differences in their underlying quantum statistics. Starting in the early 1980s it was theoretically conjectured that excitations that are neither bosons nor fermions may exist under special conditions in two-dimensional interacting electron systems. These unusual excitations were dubbed 'anyons.' Anyons possess fractional charge and fractional statistics. However, directly probing these properties presents experimental challenges. This lecture will focus on the development of electronic Fabry-Perot interferometers that resulted in the first direct observation of anyonic braiding in the fractional quantum Hall state at ν=1/3. These experiments demonstrate that ensembles of fundamental particles confined to reduced dimensions may act in concert to form new particles with properties all their own."\n \n Bio\n Michael Manfra is the Bill and Dee O'Brien Distinguished Professor of Physics and Astronomy, Professor of Materials Engineering, and Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Purdue University. He also serves as Scientific Director of Microsoft Quantum Lab West Lafayette. Mike was born, raised, and educated in Boston, Massachusetts, where he received his bachelor's degree from Harvard in 1992 and his PhD from Boston University in 1999. Mike spent two years as a postdoctoral member of the technical staff at Bell Laboratories, Lucent Technologies from 1998 to 2000 and in 2001 became a member of the technical staff of Bell Laboratories where he conducted research in low dimensional electron systems. After 10 years at Bell Labs, Manfra moved to Purdue in 2009. Mike was a Keck Foundation awardee in 2013, was elected a fellow of the American Physical Society in 2015, and in 2016 became the Scientific Director of Microsoft Quantum Lab West Lafayette. In 2020, his group reported interferometric measurement of anyon braiding, giving experimental evidence for a theoretical prediction made 40 years earlier.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Bob Patterer\n Contact email: events@frib.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://frib.msu.edu/gateway/events/talk-michael-manfra.html\n LOCATION:Virtual END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240211T220000Z UID:1706233717025@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20240211T220000Z DTEND:20240212T000000Z SUMMARY:Nostalgia Night DESCRIPTION: Relive the early 2000s at our nostalgia event, where we will have games, snacks, and crafts that will send you back to your childhood.\n\n Price: Free for all MSU students, all must show ID\n Sponsor: UAB\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.uabevents.com\n Contact name: University Activities Board\n Contact phone: 517-355-3354\n Contact email: uab@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://uabevents.com/\n LOCATION:MSU Union Ballroom, second floor END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240212T130000Z UID:1707324273067@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20240212T130000Z DTEND:20240212T100000Z SUMMARY:SOMA: Thank a Physician Card Making Event DESCRIPTION: Stop by our respective student lounge areas to make a thank you card and write a heartfelt message for our healthcare providers at Sparrow Hospital.

Founded in 2004 by violinist Dmitri Berlinsky, the group has received high praise for its performances at home and abroad. This season, the Toronto Globe & Mail wrote: "In the best of today's chamber orchestras, there's no room for wimpy playing: These ensembles are muscular, agile, flexible, and out to make an impression. That's a pretty good description of the International Chamber Soloists -- These musicians approach everything they play with an infectious alacrity..." Berlinsky's intention was to develop a new ensemble for advanced MSU students to have an exposure to variety of string repertoire and close collaboration with experienced professional performers including some of the MSU faculty. Since then ICS developed into the professional group of musicians, which engage not only MSU graduate students. In recent years members of the major orchestras including New York Philharmonic, Boston Symphony, Detroit Symphony, Cincinnati Orchestra, and also advanced players from Juilliard and Manhattan School of Music, Curtis Institute, University of Michigan and Yale University went on tours with ICS.\n \n International Chamber Soloists has performed numerous concerts and outreaches in Michigan, New York, Florida, Maryland, and Kansas, and has also participated at prestigious international festivals in Costa Rica and Mexico. They performed at the Fontana Arts Festival in Kalamazoo, Michigan; the San Francisco Conservatory as part of MSU Gala concert; and the Collage Concert at the Wharton Center. ICS was the ensemble in residence at the 2010 and 2013 Southampton Arts Festival in Long Island, New York. Other performances include Los Angeles; Washington D.C.; Toronto; Danbury, Connecticut; and an eight-concert Midwest tour.\n \n Performer Bios\n \n Dmitri Berlinsky is professor of violin and artist teacher at the MSU College of Music. He has performed in major venues such as Carnegie and Avery Fisher Halls in New York, Kennedy Center in Washington D.C., Tokyo's Suntory Hall, Great Hall of the Moscow Conservatory, and Mariinsky Concert Hall. Berlinsky initiated the Dorothy DeLay MasterClass Series, launched in fall 2020 at MSU, featuring high-profile artists who studied with the famed pedagogue to provide a space for musicians, students, and music aficionados to learn, engage, and stay connected despite the constraints on performance and instruction during the pandemic. The 2020 slate of virtual master classes featured nearly 20 DeLay alumni including Itzhak Perlman and Midori, who came back for an in-person session in fall 2023. Berlinsky is the artistic director of International Chamber Soloists. He is the co-founder of the Juventus ProMusica concert series in New York City, providing chamber music experiences for young students alongside distinguished guest artists. Recent highlights include appearances as a soloist in Berlin Philharmonie Hall, Vienna Konzerthaus, Frankfurt Alte Opera House, Leipzig Gewandhaus, Munich Philharmonic, among others on a European concert tour "Paganini Night" with the Russian Philharmonic of St. Petersburg. In high demand as a teacher, Berlinsky has given Master Classes at numerous institutions, including: the University of South California in Los Angeles; Menuhin School in London; Manhattan School; Cleveland Institute; Temple University in Philadelphia; DePaul and Roosevelt Universities in Chicago; the Royal Conservatory and Glen Gould School in Toronto; Tel Aviv University; Eastman School of Music; China Conservatory in Beijing; and the National University of Singapore.

She earned her bachelor's degree at the State Conservatory of Uzbekistan, followed by a master's degree at MSU. Korieva is a successful violin teacher at the Okemos Music Academy and Marshall Music Company. Additionally, she has performed with the Midland Symphony Orchestra, Battle Creek Symphony Orchestra, and Flint Symphony Orchestra.\n Korieva's accomplishments include winning first prize in the International Competition of Young Performers in Kazakhstan and earning the grand prix in the International Competition of Young Performers in France. She has studied under renowned violinists and worked as a violinist with the prominent central Asian ensemble for contemporary music, "Omnibus." Korieva's artistic journey has taken her to various music festivals and theatrical productions worldwide, including Germany, Russia, Turkey, and the U.S.\n \n Djakhangir Khaydarov won first prize in the Henri Selmer International Summer Academy and has performed in numerous national and international solo and chamber music competitions and festivals around the world, such as the FOOSA festival in California. A seasoned solo, chamber, and orchestra performer, Khaydarov has performed with several orchestras in Uzbekistan and has shared the stage with a multitude of well-known artists. Khaydarov has participated in masterclasses and studied with renowned clarinetists such as James Campbell, Guy Yehuda, Tasha Warren, Georgiy Borisov and John Holden. Khaydarov is currently pursuing a bachelor degree in clarinet performance at MSU under the tutelage of Guy Yehuda. In his free time, Khaydarov enjoys arranging music, playing piano, saxophone, and singing.\n \n Canadian violist Meagan Turner is in demand throughout North America and Australia.

DESCRIPTION: Abstract\n \n From the speaker:\n \n "Nuclear arms control for the foreseeable future will be hindered by polarized politics that impact compromise with foreign adversaries and internal opponents, and by the emergence of new technologies and multi-party rather than bilateral strategic contests. This presentation will explore how these processes confound military planners, political leaders, and diplomatic negotiators in each country who would have to figure out what sorts of arms control bargains are desirable and acceptable. History suggests ways to overcome these obstacles, but the pathways to be navigated today are more challenging."\n \n Bio\n https://carnegieendowment.org/experts/145\n \n George Perkovich is the Ken Olivier and Angela Nomellini Chair and vice president for studies at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, overseeing the Technology and International Affairs Program and Nuclear Policy Program.

Motivating Pakistan to Prevent Cross-Border Terrorism (Oxford University Press, 2016). Perkovich's short-form writing has appeared in leading international journals and newspapers.

EMW is an improvisation-based ensemble, often co-composing pieces as a group based on their collective interests. EMW also interprets poetry or visual art through music and performs non-traditional scores written by contemporary composers. EMW seeks to foster communication, creativity, and confidence through exploring experimental means of music-making.\n \n Performer Bios\n \n Carter Crosby is a composer, theorist, and multimedia artist currently based in East Lansing, Michigan. Crosby is excited about interdisciplinary work within and beyond the arts, working with writers, visual artists, and programmers. It is also a core tenet of their composing as an individual, frequently producing their own video for installations, creating graphic scores, or utilizing programs like Max/MSP to create dynamic electronic effects for live performance. Crosby has had works selected for performance at national festivals such as Electronic Music Midwest, SoundSCAPE composition-performance exchange, Walden Creative Musicians Retreat, and REDNOTE composition workshop. Crosby is currently pursuing a master's degree in music composition from MSU where they serve as an academic achievement graduate assistant in music technology and a STEAMpower fellow. This semester, they are leading the Electronic Music Workshop, an eclectic improvisation ensemble exploring a variety of styles and methods of music-making.\n \n Eric Hall graduated from MSU in 1986 with a degree in music performance. After a decades-long odyssey, he returned to study music composition as a life-long education student. His primary instrument is bassoon, but for the EMW, he prefers the sonic flexibility of a semi-modular synthesizer. \n \n Jeremy Makkonen is a Michigan-based composer and flutist. Makkonen's music explores elements of the mystical, the macabre, and the surreal to create an evocative and engaging musical language. Makkonen has recently collaborated with and has had his music performed and read by the musicians of the Jasper String Quartet, the NorthStar Duo, HUB New Music, the Khemia Ensemble, Musique 21, and the percussionist Simone Beneventi. He has also attended and participated in the 2021 highSCORE Festival, the 2022 Composers Retreat with Dr. Chen Yi, and the 2022 Connecticut Summerfest. Makkonen was a winner of the 2019 and 2022 Honors Composition Competition at MSU in the category of chamber music, a finalist in The Valley Winds International Composition Competition in 2021, and the ASCAP Foundation Morton Gould Young Composer Awards Competition in 2022. Makkonen has bachelor of music degrees in composition and flute performance from MSU, and is currently pursuing master of music degrees in composition, flute performance, and music theory. \n \n Jonah Weber is currently a senior in the music composition program at MSU. In addition to composing, he loves playing French horn in ensembles and hopes to continue to do perform in some capacity in the future. In EMW, depending on his mood, Jonah plays horn, trumpet, stylophone and piano. Playing in EMW is slightly outside of his typical comfort zone, but he is greatly enjoying it so far and believes improvising is a great skill for him to learn.\n \n Spencer Gravel is a composer and percussionist originally from Ypsilanti, Michigan. As a composer, he is enamored by music's unique ability to work in a totally abstract space and create a sense of narrative and drama. As a result, his music often revolves around the exploration of form and the pursuit of new ways of relating materials to each other.\n \n In EMW, Gravel performs on a variety of percussion instruments including found objects, turning brake pads and kitchen utensils into tools for musical expression.\n \n Christopher Kaminski writes music that focuses on weaving heavy metal, rock, jazz, minimalist, and improvised music together on the concert stage. His music has been performed at the Penn State New Music Festival and Symposium, fresh inc festival, Imani Winds Chamber Music Festival, Connecticut Summerfest, the Iowa Great Lakes Music Festival, and various universities. For EMW, Kaminski plays electric clarinet and electric guitar with various guitar pedals. In 2021, he ran a successful Kickstarter campaign to finish and record a heavy metal opera about a cult that worships quesadillas, called The Church of Quesadeity. Kaminski also wrote an original soundtrack for Rank: Warmaster, a recently-released sci-fi video game for PC. Kaminski received two master's degrees in composition and music theory at MSU. In addition, he is also an active clarinetist, improviser, theorist, and educator.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Bob Patterer\n Contact email: events@frib.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://frib.msu.edu/gateway/events/concert-22march2024.html\n LOCATION:Facility for Rare Isotope Beams END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240323T000000Z UID:1707758566392@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

It has recently undergone its most revolutionary reform since that birth. Famously, the kilogram is no longer defined as the mass of an artifact, the International Prototype Kilogram, but rather is now a quantum concept, defined by fixing the value of Planck's constant. In fact, all of the base units of the SI are defined by fixing the values of natural constants, and the SI now has a distinctly quantum flavor. The quantization of charge allows us to fix the charge of the electron, defining the ampere as a certain number of electrons per second. The unit of temperature, the kelvin, is no longer based on the triple point of water, but on the thermal energy of the atomic/molecular components of matter, by fixing the value of Boltzmann's constant. The unit of time has long been quantum, but its impending re-definition will make it even more so."\n \n Bio\n \n William D. Phillips received a bachelor's degree in physics from Juniata College in 1970, and a PhD from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in 1976. After two years as a Chaim Weizmann postdoctoral fellow at MIT, he joined the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) - then known as the National Bureau of Standards - to work on precision electrical measurements and fundamental constants. There, he initiated a new research program to cool atomic gases with laser light. He founded NIST's Laser Cooling and Trapping Group, and later was a founding member of the Joint Quantum Institute, a cooperative research organization of NIST and the University of Maryland that is devoted to the study of quantum coherent phenomena. His research group has been responsible for developing some of the main techniques now used for laser-cooling and cold-atom experiments in laboratories around the world. Their achievements include the first electromagnetic trapping of neutral atoms; reaching unexpectedly low laser-cooling temperatures, within a millionth of a degree of Absolute Zero; the confinement of atoms in optical lattices; and coherent atom-optical manipulation of atomic-gas Bose-Einstein condensates. Atomic fountain clocks, based on the work of this group, are now the primary standards for world timekeeping and lattice-trapped atoms are among the likely candidates for future primary frequency standards. Among the group's current research directions are the use of ultra-cold atoms for quantum information processing and quantum simulation of important physical problems.\n \n Phillips is a fellow of the American Physical Society, the American Association for the Advancement of Science, and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. He is a Fellow and Honorary Member of OPTICA (formerly the Optical Society), a member of the National Academy of Sciences and the Pontifical Academy of Sciences, and a corresponding member of the Mexican Academy of Sciences. In 1997, Phillips shared the Nobel Prize in Physics "for development of methods to cool and trap atoms with laser light."\n \n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Bob Patterer\n Contact email: events@frib.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://frib.msu.edu/gateway/events/talk-05may2024\n LOCATION:Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (VIRTUAL) END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240505T190000Z UID:1707332279246@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

The event will be held from 8:45am to 3:30pm on Tuesday August 20, 2024, in the Digital Scholarship Lab of the MSU Library, but attendees may come and go as their schedule allows.\n \n Learn about and register for THATCamp\n \n \n \n For parking information visit http://maps.msu.edu/interactive.\n If you have questions about accessibility or need to request accommodations, please email lib.dl.accessibility@msu.edu.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: Administration\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://www.lib.msu.edu\n Contact name: Holly Flynn\n Contact phone: 517-884-0901\n Contact email: flynnhol@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://bookings.lib.msu.edu/event/12516057\n LOCATION:MSU Main Library, DSL Flex Space, 2-West END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240820T140000Z UID:1723133513142@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Conferences / Seminars / Lectures DTSTART:20240820T140000Z DTEND:20240820T153000Z SUMMARY:Instructor Jumpstart: Part 2 DESCRIPTION: Join the Center for Teaching and Learning Innovation (CTLI)- in partnership with the Office for Faculty and Academic Staff Development (OFASD)- for a two part introduction to high-level topics related to quality, inclusive teaching at Michigan State University.

Moderato\n 2. Andantino\n 3. Allegro moderato\n 4. Moderato\n 5. Allegro vivace\n 6. Allegretto\n \n Vier Impromptus, D 899\n 1. Allegro molto moderato\n 2. Allegro\n 3. Andante\n 4. Allegretto\n \n Performer Bio\n \n Sergei Kvitko's career is as diverse as it is successful. As a pianist, Mr. Kvitko has captured the attention of music critics with his "polished pianism... glorious Horowitzian three-dimensional perspective" (Gramophone Magazine), "masterful, intuitive playing... arresting artistry... an iconoclastic sense for rubato rhythm and phrasing" (Fanfare Magazine), and has been praised for his "luminous touch... warm, round sound... plenty of brilliance" as well as "a natural, appealing musicality and sensual understanding of piano tone" (The Chronicle-Herald). The American Record Guide placed his recording of Mussorgsky's Pictures at an Exhibition "among the best ever made" and included it on its coveted Critics' Choice List. His critically acclaimed 2021 CD "Mozart. Post Scriptum" with Madrid Soloists Chamber Orchestra was praised as "an absolute explosion of creativity for Mr. Kvitko" (EarRelevant, Atlanta). The album has also won The American Prize in Piano Performance (Concerto). His 2023 album "Schubert by Candlelight: Live in Madrid" was released by Reference Recordings label and received such accolades as "beautifully executed and easily joins the best currently available" (American Record Guide) and "outstanding recital... ranked among the best Schubert piano releases in years" (Fanfare Magazine). In 2013, Kvitko made his New York City debut with a solo recital at Carnegie Hall that "was met with rousing applause, bravos, and a standing ovation" (New York Concert Review). He made solo, chamber and orchestral appearances in the United States, Canada, Ireland, Spain, Italy, Austria, Russia, Ukraine, Kazakhstan, and Uzbekistan.\n \n As a composer, he gathered multiple awards for his incidental music for the production of Steven Dietz's play "Dracula." Lawrence Cosentino of City Pulse wrote: "Kvitko wove a borderline insane level of care and sophistication into every bar of his score even when you can barely hear it," and Fanfare Magazine called it "a well-conceived, executed, and imaginative score... entertaining, powerful, witty." Other compositions include incidental music for Tennessee Williams' play "The Glass Menagerie" as well as many transcriptions and arrangements. His cadenzas for Mozart's Concerto in D Minor were called "spectacular, to say the least" (Pizzicato Magazine, Germany)\n \n What makes Kvitko's career truly unique, is that his artistic accomplishments are balanced by his reputation as an internationally sought-after classical recording engineer and producer of the highest caliber, declared by Fanfare Magazine as "one of the best in the business," and dubbed a "recording wizard" by New York Concert Review. Gramophone Magazine stated that "as engineer, he makes magic," while American Record Guide praised his work as a "consistent stream of exceptionally enjoyable recordings." He is a Latin Grammy-nominated producer in Best Classical Album category. His recording of Carter Pann's piece Mechanics was a finalist for Pulitzer Prize in Music. CDs produced and engineered by Sergei Kvitko have been favorably reviewed by national and international publications such as Fanfare Magazine, BBC Music, Flute World, Clarinet Magazine, Clavier, Percussion and Strings Magazine among many others, earning praises such as "superbly well recorded" (International Record Guide, UK), "vividly detailed, vibrant sonics" (Gramophone, UK), "beautifully balanced and warmly atmospheric" (Gramophone, UK), "the recording is close to ideal - rich, but clear, truthful and immediate" (American Record Guide), "larger-than-life recording that sounds fabulous at virtually any volume level" (Strings Magazine), "warm and immediate sound" (The Strad).\n \n Sergei Kvitko was born in Russia and began studying music at the age of six. After receiving the highest musical education there, he came to the United States to pursue a Doctor of Musical Arts degree at Michigan State University, where he studied with Ralph Votapek. He is a voting member of the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences (GRAMMY).\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Bob Patterer\n Contact email: events@frib.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://frib.msu.edu/gateway/events/concert-04oct2024\n LOCATION:Facility for Rare Isotope Beams END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20241006T180000Z UID:1727229028733@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20241006T180000Z DTEND:20241006T200000Z SUMMARY:SpARTan Wellness: Papercut Screen Printing DESCRIPTION: Your voice, your vote.

My father, a blind physicist, and my mother, his reader, who lived with spina bifida, were bound together by love and necessity decades before recognition of their rights as disabled people. I explored their letters, interviewed Dad's colleagues, searched for his publications, and listened to audio tapes of their work. As I revisited the scenes we shared, I developed a new understanding of how and what they taught me; my sister, Anne; his students; and their community. \n \n Mort Gordon was a college student during World War II, when he learned that he was going blind from retinitis pigmentosa. Then Mort made two important decisions: he began studying physics, and he courted and married Bernice Rubinstein. These choices enabled him to contribute to the world of accelerator physics and raise a family. Mort, as a new PhD, faced discrimination because of "decreased vision," then worked on an innovative cyclotron project at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, which led him to take a job at Michigan State University and create something new. Mort and Bernice Gordon ingeniously found ways for the professor to teach his classes, develop the mathematics and computer models essential for MSU's innovative cyclotrons, and share knowledge with colleagues around the world. Their story lives at the intersection of disability history and physics history. It illuminates the importance of sustained curiosity and the benefits of persistence, mentoring, and collaboration."\n \n Bio\n \n Janet Gordon grew up in East Lansing, Michigan, and graduated from the University of Michigan in 1974, with aspirations to make the world better. She received an MA in business administration from George Washington University. As a federal banking regulator, she developed guidance on the Community Reinvestment Act, which encourages banks to serve low- and moderate-income communities. As Associate Director of Community Affairs at the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, Janet improved consumer education to better serve people with disabilities. After retiring in 2018, Janet studied writing at The Writer's Center in Bethesda, Maryland, and Politics and Prose bookstore in Washington, D.C. In All the Ways You Taught Us, A Memoir of Ability, Disability and the Pursuit of Meaning, she chronicles lessons about inquiry, disability, and meaningful living learned from Mort and Bernice Gordon's remarkable lives.\n \n Morton M. Gordon and Bernice Gordon\n \n Morton M. Gordon (1924-2012), born in Atlantic City, New Jersey, attended Rutgers University, graduated from the University of Chicago, and received a PhD in physics from Washington University in 1950. Mort was instrumental in the design of a new breed of cyclotrons. By the time he arrived at Michigan State University in his thirties, he was almost completely blind from retinitis pigmentosa. Nonetheless, in 1959 he was the second person hired to design the first particle accelerator at MSU's Cyclotron Laboratory. Mort was the principal theoretical physicist guiding the mathematics and computer models essential to its development. He continued his contributions at the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory until 1999. He was a professor of physics for 50 years, and his students went on to help build accelerators all over the world. Mort's principal collaborator in life, Bernice Gordon (1928-2007), also grew up in Atlantic City and graduated from the New Jersey College for Women in 1950. Bernice was born with spina bifida, which slowly reduced her mobility over the course of her life. In addition to a half century of service as Mort's dedicated (and unpaid) reader, she was a political organizer, a participant in the Lansing area Jewish community, and a lover of literature who influenced the reading of her family and members of her book clubs. Mort and Bernice Gordon raised two daughters and left legacies for the next generations. \n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Bob Patterer\n Contact email: events@frib.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://frib.msu.edu/gateway/events/talk-17oct2024\n LOCATION:Facility for Rare Isotope Beams END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20241018T200000Z UID:1728501843341@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20241018T200000Z DTEND:20241018T220000Z SUMMARY:Go Green!

At the same time, the mysterious dark matter of the universe could imprint a range of clues to its existence in the gamma-ray sky. Disentangling the two isn't always easy, but I will discuss how scientists try to distinguish possible dark matter signals from high-energy astrophysics, what we are currently seeing in the data, and what new clues the next generation of gamma-ray telescopes are expected to provide."\n \n Bio\n Tracy Slatyer is a theoretical physicist who works on particle physics, cosmology and astrophysics. Her research is motivated by questions of fundamental particle physics - in particular, the nature and interactions of dark matter - but she seeks answers to these questions by studying possible signatures of new physics in astrophysical and cosmological data. Her particular areas of focus include research into scenarios where the dark matter experiences new forces of nature, precision theoretical predictions for photon signals from heavy colliding dark matter particles, modeling of the possible effects of dark matter interactions on the history of the early cosmos, and hands-on data analysis of high-energy gamma-ray data in search of dark matter signals. She was a co-discoverer of the giant gamma-ray structures known as the "Fermi Bubbles" erupting from the center of the Milky Way.\n \n Slatyer was born in the Solomon Islands and grew up in Australia and Fiji. She completed her undergraduate work with honors in theoretical physics at the Australian National University in 2005 and her doctoral work in physics at Harvard in 2010 under the direction of Douglas Finkbeiner. Slatyer was a postdoctoral researcher at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton from 2010-2013, and joined the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Physics Department as a junior faculty member in July 2013. She was promoted to associate professor in 2018 and received tenure in 2019.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Bob Patterer\n Contact email: events@frib.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://frib.msu.edu/gateway/events/talk-24nov2024\n LOCATION:Virtual END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20241024T190000Z UID:1729462460988@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20241024T190000Z DTEND:20241025T035900Z SUMMARY:UAB Halloween Giveaway Day DESCRIPTION: Stop by our table before class to pick up a Halloween candy bag, while supplies last, and learn about upcoming UAB events!

However, some cosmological observations show that there also must be new, additional particles and forces. Traditionally, physicists have searched for these using huge accelerators and giant detectors. However, certain types of new particles and forces can be detected in a very different way: the laws of quantum physics dictate that their existence will modify the properties of ordinary matter in subtle but distinctive ways. These tiny effects can be detected with experiments, small enough to fit in a garage, which use methods of ultra-precise quantum measurements to search for particles that cannot be produced even at the Large Hadron Collider. This talk will describe such experiments and the concepts behind them."\n \n Bio\n David DeMille is a professor in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at Johns Hopkins University. He also holds positions as a research professor in the Department of Physics at the University of Chicago, and a visiting scholar in the Physics Division at Argonne National Laboratory. DeMille's research seeks to investigate the fundamental properties of the universe by making extremely precise measurements of quantum systems. He is known for novel approaches that use the properties of molecules to amplify signals from exotic particles and forces in the laboratory, and for developing ways to produce and trap ultracold gases of polar molecules. \n DeMille received his PhD in physics from the University of California at Berkeley in 1994. He previously served on the faculties of Yale University and Amherst College. He co-authored the textbook "Atomic Physics: an exploration through problems and solutions" (Oxford Univ. Press, 2004). His honors include the American Physical Society's Norman F. Ramsey Prize (joint with John Doyle and Gerald Gabrielse) and its Francis M. Pipkin Award, as well as a Sloan Foundation Fellowship and a Packard Foundation Fellowship. DeMille was elected a member of the National Academy of Sciences in 2024.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Bob Patterer\n Contact email: events@frib.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://frib.msu.edu/gateway/events/talk-6dec2024 \n LOCATION:Facility for Rare Isotope Beams END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20241207T140000Z UID:1732065418321@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Special Events DTSTART:20241207T140000Z DTEND:20241207T220000Z SUMMARY:61st Annual Winter Arts & Crafts Show hosted by UAB DESCRIPTION: MSU University Activities Board is excited to host our 61st Annual Arts and Crafts Show at the MSU Union.

Research on how the primate brain represents faces has given us a remarkable window into the processes underlying visual perception. In my talk, I will discuss the organization and feature code used by the brain's system for representing faces, the way the system represents memories, and how the system has provided a model for clarifying how the brain represents objects in general."\n \n Bio\n Doris Tsao is a professor of biology at the University of California Berkeley and an investigator at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute. She joined UC Berkeley in 2021, and prior to that was a professor at the California Institute of Technology from 2009-2021. She studied biology and mathematics at Caltech as an undergraduate and received her PhD in neuroscience from Harvard University in 2002. Her central interest is in understanding the neural mechanisms underlying vision. Her lab seeks to understand how visual objects and actions are represented in the brain and how these representations are used to guide behavior. Her lab is investigating mechanisms at multiple stages in the visual hierarchy, from early processes for segmenting visual input into discrete objects, to mid- and high-level perceptual processes for assigning meaningful identity to specific objects, to processes by which these perceptual representations are integrated into coherent scene representations. Techniques used include: electrophysiology, functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), electrical microstimulation, optogenetics, anatomical tracing, psychophysics, and mathematical modeling.\n \n Tsao has received multiple honors including the Sofia Kovalevskaya Award (2004), Eppendorf & Science International Prize in Neurobiology (2006), MacArthur Fellowship (2018), and Kavli Prize in Neuroscience (2024).

While researchers in these areas have been using advanced data science tools for decades, modern machine learning has introduced a paradigm shift whereby data can be directly analyzed holistically without first compressing it into a more manageable and human understandable format. How will the machines help us explore the unknown? Can they be trusted to give us the right answers? I'll attempt to address these questions and others with a talk about the use of modern machine learning, including generative artificial intelligence (AI), in the study of fundamental interactions."\n \n Bio\n Benjamin Nachman earned his PhD in physics and a PhD minor in statistics from Stanford University in 2016. He then was a Chamberlain Postdoctoral Fellow in the Physics Division at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL). In 2020, Nachman became a staff scientist at LBNL, where he leads the Machine Learning for Fundamental Physics Group. This group develops, adapts, and deploys machine learning/artificial intelligence to problems in particle, nuclear, and astrophysics.\n \n Register: https://msu.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_ageEO5tUTsSSYqiF7NjC_Q \n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Bob Patterer\n Contact email: events@frib.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://frib.msu.edu/gateway/events/talk-26jan2025\n LOCATION:Facility for Rare Isotope Beams - ON LINE END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20250127T160000Z UID:1737315774516@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20250127T160000Z DTEND:20250127T213000Z SUMMARY:Koala Bakery and Cafe Fundraiser DESCRIPTION: Michigan State College of Osteopathic Medicine's Student Government Association will be hosting a fundraiser at Koala Bakery and Cafe to raise funds for future events. \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Kaitlin Howard\n Contact phone: (626) 367-9410\n Contact email: howar453@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://calendar.google.com/calendar/u/0/embed?src=msu.edu_oh8p0n5vsbico6odbrodtar838@group.calendar\n LOCATION:223 M.A.C.

DESCRIPTION: Nigel Goldenfeld - What can theoretical physics tell us about the origin and evolution of early life?\n \n Abstract\n \n "Life on Earth is wonderfully diverse, with a multitude of life forms, structures and evolutionary mechanisms. However, there are two aspects of life that are universal - shared by all known organisms. These are the genetic code, which governs how DNA is converted into the proteins making up your body, and the unexpected left-handedness of the amino acids in your body. One would expect that your amino acids were a mixture of left and right-handed molecules, but none are right-handed! In this talk, I describe how these universal aspects of biology can be understood as arising from evolution, but generalized to an era where genes, species and individuality had not yet emerged. I will also discuss to what extent one can find general principles of biology that can apply to all life in the universe, and what this would mean for the nascent field of astrobiology."\n \n Bio\n Nigel Goldenfeld holds the Chancellor's Distinguished Professorship in Physics and joined the University of California, San Diego, in fall 2021 after 36 years at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC). His research spans condensed matter theory, the theory of living systems, hydrodynamics and non-equilibrium statistical physics. He received his PhD in theoretical physics from the University of Cambridge in 1982, and for the years 1982-1985 was a postdoctoral fellow at the Institute for Theoretical Physics, University of California at Santa Barbara, where his work on the dynamics of snowflake growth helped launch the modern theory of pattern formation in nature. He joined the condensed matter theory group at the Department of Physics at UIUC in 1985, where his work was instrumental to the discovery of d-wave pairing in high temperature superconductors. In 1996, he co-founded NumeriX, a company that develops high-performance software for pricing and risk managing derivative securities. He was a founding member of the Institute for Genomic Biology at UIUC, where he led the Biocomplexity Group and directed the NASA Astrobiology Institute for Universal Biology. \n \n During the COVID-19 pandemic, he pivoted from his experience in mathematical modeling of bacteria and viruses to computational epidemiology. He has served on the editorial boards of several journals, including The Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society, Physical Biology and the International Journal of Theoretical and Applied Finance. Selected honors include: Alfred P. Sloan Foundation Fellow, University Scholar of the University of Illinois, the Xerox Award for research, the A. Nordsieck award for excellence in graduate teaching and the American Physical Society's Leo P. Kadanoff Prize 2020. He is a Fellow of the American Physical Society, a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, a Fellow of the Royal Society (UK) and a Member of the US National Academy of Sciences.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Bob Patterer\n Contact email: events@frib.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://msu.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_2lTzhXZtScGiiRzT8H89Yg\n LOCATION:Virtual END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20250210T230000Z UID:1738183421698@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Performing Arts (Dance, Music, Theatre, ...)

He is the co-founder of "Juventus ProMusica" concert series in New York City, providing chamber music experiences for young students alongside distinguished guest artists. \n \n Berlinsky arrived on the international scene as the youngest winner in the history of the Paganini International Violin Competition in Genoa, Italy. This victory led to his performance on Nicolo Paganini's own Guarneri del Gesú instrument, a privilege shared by only a handful of artists in history. Subsequent triumphs at the Montreal International Violin Competition (Grand Prize), the International Tchaikovsky Competition and the Queen Elizabeth Competition in Brussels, led to appearances with major orchestras in Europe, Russia, the Far East, North and South America.\n \n Jiarui Cheng, piano\n Jiarui Cheng, from Nanjing, China, is known for his blend of artistic nuance and bravura pianism. He is hailed for his affinity for a wide range of stylist traditions. Jiarui Cheng has performed as concerto soloist and recitalist in China, United States and Europe. He has been featured as concerto soloist with the Shanghai Conservatory of Music Symphony Orchestra for the Conservatory's 70th Anniversary Celebration Concert, performing Beethoven Piano Concerto No. 4 in Shanghai Symphony Hall.

Is he bringing us back to the 1950s-60s, when the US-Soviet nuclear confrontation was the centerpiece of the Cold War? Can his remarks be compared to Khrushchev's famous 'we will bury you' speech? This talk will examine Putin's remarks in light of Russia's increased reliance on nuclear weapons at a time when old arms control treaties and regular nuclear dialogue have lapsed. What does Putin think of nuclear weapons and why has he made them so central to his public presentation of Russian national security?"\n \n Bio\n \n https://www.sipa.columbia.edu/communities-connections/faculty/peter-clement\n \n Peter Clement is a Senior Research Scholar/Adjunct Professor at the Saltzman Institute of War and Peace Studies at Columbia University's School of International and Public Affairs. He teaches courses on Contemporary Russian Security Policy and Intelligence and Foreign Policy. \n \n Clement came to Columbia following his retirement from the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) in 2018. Among his senior CIA positions: Deputy Assistant Director of CIA for Europe and Eurasia (2015-2017); Deputy Director for Intelligence for Analytic Programs (2005-2013); Director of the Office of Russian and Eurasian Analysis and CIA's Russia Issue Manager (1995-2003). Clement served as the President's Daily Brief (PDB) daily briefer for Vice President Dick Cheney, National Security Council (NSC) Adviser Condoleezza Rice and Deputy NSC Adviser Stephen Hadley in 2003-2004. He briefly served at the National Security Council as the Director for Russia and later served as the senior CIA representative to the U.S. Mission to the United Nations. \n \n Clement has been a member of the Council on Foreign Relations since 2001. He has published some dozen journal articles and book chapters on Soviet and Russian foreign policy, most recently "Putin's Risk Spiral: The Logic of Escalation in an Unraveling War" in Foreign Affairs online, and a forthcoming book chapter assessing Putin's foreign policy since 2000. He also is finishing a book about CIA analysts, their work and career trajectories. Clement earned a PhD in Russian history and a master's degree in Modern European history from Michigan State University, and a bachelor's degree in liberal arts from SUNY-Oswego.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Bob Patterer\n Contact email: events@frib.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://frib.msu.edu/public/policy-lecture/talk-clement\n LOCATION:Facility for Rare Isotope Beams END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20250320T230000Z UID:1742501693383@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20250320T230000Z DTEND:20250321T013000Z SUMMARY:Spill the Tea Girl DESCRIPTION: Don't be chai!

This presentation will describe emerging evidence showing that biological systems organize them according to hyperbolic surfaces and that these surfaces expand according to similar principles.\n \n Across different scales of biological organization, biological networks often exhibit hierarchical tree-like organization. For networks with such structure, hyperbolic geometry provides a natural metric because of its exponentially expanding resolution. I will describe how the use of hyperbolic geometry can be helpful for visualizing and analyzing information acquisition and learning process from across biology, from viruses, to plants and animals, including the brain. We find that local noise causes data to exhibit Euclidean geometry on small scales, but that at broader scales hyperbolic geometry becomes visible and pronounced. The hyperbolic maps are typically larger for datasets of more diverse and differentiated cells, e.g. with a range of ages. We find that adding a constraint on large distances according to hyperbolic geometry improves the performance of t-SNE algorithm to a large degree causing it to outperform other leading methods, such as UMAP and standard t-SNE. For neural responses, I will describe data showing that neural responses in the hippocampus have a low-dimensional hyperbolic geometry and that their hyperbolic size is optimized for the number of available neurons. It was also possible to analyze how neural representations change with experience. In particular, neural representations continued to be described by a low-dimensional hyperbolic geometry but the radius increased logarithmically with time. This time dependence matches the maximal rate of information acquisition by a maximum entropy discrete Poisson process, further implying that neural representations continue to perform optimally as they change with experience."\n \n Bio\n \n Tatyana Sharpee received her PhD in condensed matter physics from Michigan State University studying under the supervision of Mark Dykman. After her PhD, she started to work in computational neuroscience at the University of California, San Francisco, where she developed statistical methods for analyzing neural responses to natural stimuli, which exhibit strong correlations and non-Gaussian effects. These methods made it possible to reveal new adaptation processes in the brain by comparing neural responses to white noise and natural stimuli. Her independent research program has started at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies where she is currently a professor in the Computational Neurobiology and Integrative Biology Laboratories. Sharpee is a fellow of the American Physical Society.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Bob Patterer\n Contact email: events@frib.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://msu.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_X3eDAcCVR_ad7HSy0RvdfQ\n LOCATION:Virtual END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20250323T200000Z UID:1742501829158@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20250323T200000Z DTEND:20250323T220000Z SUMMARY:MSU Idol DESCRIPTION: Get ready for a night of incredible talent at MSU Idol, where Spartans take the stage to compete in an American Idol-style showdown!

Observations of these events chart the history of stars through the collapsed remnants that are left behind at the end of their lives. Interpreting the patterns of their waves tells us about how these compact remnants orbit and spin, and can tell us how matter behaves at densities beyond that of an atomic nucleus. Mergers involving neutron stars are engines of transient astronomy, launching gamma-ray bursts and spreading newly created heavy elements into the universe. In this talk, I will tell some of the story of this new field of gravitational wave astronomy and show how our first detections are laying the groundwork for future observatories that can see across our entire universe."\n \n Bio\n \n Jocelyn Read is a professor of physics at California State University Fullerton in the Nicholas and Lee Begovich Center for Gravitational Wave Physics and Astronomy, and currently a visiting fellow at the Perimeter Institute. Her research connects the nuclear astrophysics of neutron stars with gravitational-wave observations. She earned her PhD in 2008 from the University of Wisconsin Milwaukee, where she developed a widely used model for dense matter inside neutron stars and produced first estimates of how gravitational waves from neutron star mergers would inform these properties. Her work has included proposed mechanisms for precursor flares in gamma-ray bursts, new methods for gravitational-wave cosmology, uncertainty quantification for neutron-star merger source modeling, and measurements of dense-matter properties with the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) and Virgo gravitational-wave observations. She is actively contributing to the development of the next-generation gravitational-wave observatory Cosmic Explorer.\n \n Read co-chaired the LIGO/Virgo Binary Neutron Star Sources Working Group from 2014 to 2016 and was part of the team awarded the 2016 Special Breakthrough Prize in Fundamental Physics for the discovery of gravitational waves. She co-led the Extreme Matter team of the LIGO-Virgo-Kagra Collaboration from 2016 to 2022, through the first discovery and analysis of gravitational waves from a neutron-star merger. She has held visiting positions at the California Institute of Technology and the Carnegie Observatories in Pasadena. Read chairs the Advisory Board for the North American Nanohertz Observatory for Gravitational Waves (NANOGrav) and served on the Scientific Advisory Committee for the Australian Research Council Centre of Excellence for Gravitational Wave Discovery (OzGrav). She was elected a Fellow of the American Physical Society (APS) in 2019.\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Bob Patterer\n Contact email: events@frib.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://msu.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_CTECnLT5QlqDsRDoeM6aJw\n LOCATION:Virtual END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20250416T220000Z UID:1740596121470@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20250416T220000Z DTEND:20250417T000000Z SUMMARY:ARTIST TALKS: 2025 Master of Fine Arts Exhibition DESCRIPTION: Join MSU Department of Art, Art History, and Design Master of Fine Arts degree candidates Claire E.

The temperatures were about a million times hotter than that of our sun. At these extremely hot temperatures, atoms and nuclei melt into a soup of quarks and gluons. We can study this state in modern accelerators by colliding heavy nuclei, such as gold or lead, at ultrarelativistic energies. One way to study this plasma is by studying its effect on particles made of a heavy quark-antiquark pair. The heaviest of these are states made of b and anti-b quarks, sometimes called "beauty" quarks. In this talk, we will summarize measurements taken over the past 15 years, we have studied these particles as they experience the hot environment of the Quark-Gluon Plasma, where we have found that these particles essentially melt when they are placed in this extreme environment.\n \n Bio\n \n Manuel Calderón de la Barca Sánchez is a professor of physics at the University of California Davis (UC Davis). Originally from Mexico City, Mexico, Calderón went to high school and college at the Monterrey Institute of Technology and Higher Education, majoring in engineering physics. Thanks to a fellowship from the Mexican Physical Society, Calderón conducted summer research at CERN and moved on to graduate school, joining the relativistic heavy-ion group at Yale University, where he completed his PhD in 2001 in the field of high-energy nuclear physics. His work was done at the Relativistic Heavy-ion Collider at Brookhaven National Laboratory, where he was first a postdoc and then a staff scientist. \n \n Calderón's desire to teach led him to look for university positions, and he was hired as an assistant professor at Indiana University in 2004, and then at UC Davis in 2006, where he is a full professor. He is also the featured scientist and narrator of the IMAX film, "Secrets of the Universe."\n \n An enthusiastic educator, Calderón was a recipient of the UC Davis Distinguished Teaching Award for Undergraduate Teaching in 2013. He is also a member of the Nuclear Science Advisory Committee and continues to do research at Brookhaven National Laboratory as well as CERN in the Large Hadron Collider, focusing on b-quark bound states and Z bosons.\n \n Zoom Link: https://msu.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_NlH0C1tqSmCy8mVEZV6dKw\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Bob Patterer\n Contact email: events@frib.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://frib.msu.edu/gateway/events/talk-25april2025\n LOCATION:Facility for Rare Isotope Beams END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20250426T140000Z UID:1740600101647@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20250426T140000Z DTEND:20250426T220000Z SUMMARY:Study SmART DESCRIPTION: Finals are a drag, but we're here to help!

As the inaugural speaker, Scott Horsley sets the stage for an ongoing dialogue on the intersection of food, economics, and policy.\n \n About Scott Horsley\n \n Scott Horsley is NPR's Chief Economics Correspondent. He reports on ups and downs in the national economy as well as fault lines between booming and busting communities.\n \n Horsley spent a decade on the White House beat, covering both the Trump and Obama administrations. Before that, he was a San Diego-based business reporter for NPR, covering fast food, gasoline prices, and the California electricity crunch of 2000. He also reported from the Pentagon during the early phases of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.\n \n Before joining NPR in 2001, Horsley worked for NPR Member stations in San Diego and Tampa, as well as commercial radio stations in Boston and Concord, New Hampshire. Horsley began his professional career as a production assistant for NPR's Morning Edition.\n \n Horsley earned a bachelor's degree from Harvard University and an MBA from San Diego State University. \n \n This event is free and open to the public.

Menuetto: Moderato e grazioso\n IV. Presto con fuoco\n \n Performer bio(s):\n \n Pianist Young Hyun Cho has performed throughout the world, from the Vienna Musikverein to the Berlin Philharmonic Concert Hall, from the Smetana Hall in Prague to the Solti Hall of the Liszt Academy in Budapest, and at the Seoul Arts Center in her native Korea. \n \n Young Hyun Cho has appeared as a soloist with the Berlin Symphony Orchestra, Euro Sinfonietta Wien, Filarmonica della Calabria of Italy, North Czech Philharmonic Teplice, Budapest Symphony Chamber Orchestra M.A.V., Bohuslav Martinu Philharmonic, Korean Broadcasting System Symphony Orchestra, Korean Symphony Orchestra, Seoul National Symphony Orchestra, and the Eastman Symphony orchestra. She is an associate professor of piano at Michigan State University College of Music, following her tenure as an associate professor at the University of Texas at Arlington.\n \n Born in Korea to a non-musical family, Young Hyun Cho was introduced to Western classical music at an early age. Young Hyun soon enjoyed spending hours practicing the piano, thanks to her father's influence, an anesthesiologist who loves to listen to the radio on the classical music channel. After attending Yewon Middle School, Seoul Arts High School, and Seoul National University in Seoul, she left for the United States to pursue further studies. Young Hyun Cho obtained her Master of Music and Graduate Performance Diploma from the Peabody Conservatory and her Doctor of Musical Arts degree from the Eastman School of Music. \n \n A concert review in the Aachen newspaper in Germany called Cho a "blessed interpreter of Beethoven." She is now working on a project to record all 32 Beethoven piano sonatas. Her concerts and recordings, including "Beethoven's Last Three Piano Sonatas" on the Sony release and "Beethoven's Piano Sonatas Nos. 12-15" on the Blue Griffin release, have received critical acclaim around the globe. The music publication Textura noted "her impeccable technique and the clarity of expression and articulation." Composer and music critic Steven Kennedy lauded the "great command of dynamic shading" and "precision of the performances." Fanfare magazine praised "each note articulated with absolute clarity" and "beautifully limned with phrasing."\n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Bob Patterer\n Contact email: events@frib.msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://frib.msu.edu/public-engagement/arts-and-activities-at-frib/advanced-studies-gateway/beethove\n LOCATION:Facility for Rare Isotope Beams END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20250912T223000Z UID:1757357159780@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20250912T223000Z DTEND:20250913T003000Z SUMMARY:Green & White Night DESCRIPTION: Grab the family and head to Green & White Night at the MSU Union.

Some have sparked grassroots pushback, whereby local communities have all but ignored the Court. In others, Congress successfully signaled to the judiciary that it should back off from an issue. Most significantly, the two major parties can use unpopular decisions to shift political momentum and win elections. \n \n After developing conditions for the potential to affect elections, Bridge puts them to the test with recent rulings on controversial issues such as Obamacare, same-sex marriage, religious liberty,\n affirmative action, and abortion. He concludes that the Democratic Party missed a major, and quite rare, opportunity in 2024. In prioritizing policy over politics, Democrats ceded millions of votes to\n the Republican Party.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Elizabeth Newman\n Contact phone: 517-798-1846\n Contact email: enewman@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n http://https://jmc.msu.edu/events/2025/09/Constitution-Day-at-JMC\n LOCATION:Wonders Hall KIVA (Room C100) END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20250919T223000Z UID:1757357283654@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20250919T223000Z DTEND:20250920T003000Z SUMMARY:Pride Pajama Party DESCRIPTION: Join UAB and GSCC for a fabulously cozy night filled with food and drinks (while supplies last), crafts, giveaways, and classic sleepover shenanigans.

The poems are an exploration of systemic failure on multiple levels beginning with the diagnosis of two friends with very different forms of dementia, but then branching out to include the failure of late-stage capitalism to address the needs of the homeless in Hinrichsen's hometown of Lansing, Michigan, as well as issues related to freshwater mismanagement and the death of aquifers on a broader scale. The running motif is water, the body as water, brain as water, body and brain as aquifer, all under extreme forms of stress. \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: RCAH Center for Poetry at MSU\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://poetry.rcah.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Laurie Hollinger\n Contact phone: 517-884-1932\n Contact email: cpoetry@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://poetry.rcah.msu.edu/events/day-zero-breakdown-hinrichsen.html\n LOCATION:RCAH Theater, Snyder-Phillips Hall END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20260226T230000Z UID:1768503654121@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Public Programs DTSTART:20260226T230000Z DTEND:20260227T000000Z SUMMARY:Emerging Leaders: Where Research Becomes Real World Impact feat.

Morris will perform in that darkness, using recorded sound, moving image, and live performance to collaborate with Tichy's exhibition.\n \n In these interventions, Morris considers Black diaspora concepts of color, gender, darkness, language, mystery and land. Her literal and metaphorical framing of degrees of darkness and ranges of color incorporates traditional African, avant-garde art and feminist elements in conversation with Tichy's installations.\n \n Doors open at 6:45 p.m. A reception and book signing will follow. This event is free and open to the public.\n \n Tracie Morris is one of the most distinguished poets of her generation, a pathbreaking performer whose experiments with sound and language have inspired generations of poets to expand the boundaries of their art. Her recent books include Human/Nature Poems (Litmus Press, 2023), Who Do With Words (Chax Press, 2019), and Handholding: 5 Kinds (Kore Press, 2016). She is the recipient of a Guggenheim Fellowship, as well as awards and grants from Creative Capital, the New York Foundation for the Arts, and the Asian Cultural Council. She is currently Professor of Poetry at the Iowa Writers' Workshop.\n \n "Colors through Darkness" is made possible thanks to the support of a Creating Inclusive Excellence Grant from Michigan State University, as well as support from the Creative Writing Program, the RCAH Center for Poetry at MSU, and the Broad Museum.\n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: RCAH Center for Poetry at MSU\n Sponsor's Homepage: http://poetry.rcah.msu.edu/\n Contact name: Toby Altman\n Contact phone: 517-884-1932\n Contact email: altmanto@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://poetry.rcah.msu.edu/events/morris-march-2026-broad.html\n LOCATION:MSU Broad Art Museum END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20260328T220000Z UID:1774302077735@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20260328T220000Z DTEND:20260329T010000Z SUMMARY:UAB Event - Matsuri Festival DESCRIPTION: Join us for an event inspired by the traditional summer Japanese Matsuri Festival with interactive games, cultural activities, live performances, and festive treats.

Often arriving without knowing their destination, these observers are asked a simple but profound question: What do you see? From the icy landscapes of Greenland to the microscopic wonders of a Seoul laboratory, the film explores the transformative power of observation. Using a small red wooden square as a literal frame for the world, Cheney invites us to slow down, rediscover the art of seeing, and find awe in the most quotidian of locales.\n \n Why Attend? In an era of rapid environmental change, how we perceive our world is more important than ever. Come celebrate the beauty of our planet and explore how different perspectives-from a geologist to a poet-can reshape our understanding of the environment, and learn how basic geographic skills can help us understand the physical world around us. \n \n\n Price: free\n Sponsor: public\n Contact name: Diane Huhn\n Contact email: huhndian@msu.edu\n for more info visit the web at:\n https://geo.msu.edu/news-events/events/2026-04-21.html\n LOCATION:Business College Complex, Classroom N100 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20260422T220000Z UID:1776099251624@events.msu.edu CATEGORIES:Student Events DTSTART:20260422T220000Z DTEND:20260423T000000Z SUMMARY:UAB Event: Nacho Regular Open Mic Night!
