SUMMARY:Celebrating Rumi in the 21st Century
DESCRIPTION:This conference examines the poetry & philosophy of Rumi\, the 13th-century Muslim poet\, philosopher\, & mystic\, & its relevance to contemporary understandings of Islamic culture. It also deals with renewed interests in Rumi’s writings in recent years throughout the Middle East\, Europe\, & the United States. The starting point of the conference is Rumi’s well-known verse “come\, come again\, whoever you are\, come!” Rumi’s eloquent & humanistic poetry\, written sometimes with a sense of humor\, creates a window on Islamic beliefs\, values\, & wisdom that is far removed from images of violence & terrorism. Bringing well-known scholars of Islamic mysticism\, Rumi\, & the Middle East together\, we explore Rumi’s writings\, their place in Islamic literature & society\, & their resurgence as bestsellers in the West. The universality of Rumi’s poetry fosters an understanding of the human experience that transcends the boundaries of nations\, religions\, & languages.

SUMMARY:MSU Greater China Supply Chain Forum
DESCRIPTION:The Greater China Supply Chain Forum is a core project of the Broad International Business Forum (BIBF)\, held each fall at Michigan State University. Each year over 300 students\, faculty and professionals converge to hear top managers speak about their experiences in China. These managers travel to East Lansing from around the globe to represent such multinational corporations as Dell\, Whirlpool\, UPS\, GM\, A.T. Kearney\, and many more. Three panels of speakers are joined by guest moderators to provide a full day of presentations and Q&A on focused topics in current\, international business. An informal luncheon in the middle of the day brings speakers and attendees together for a chance to interact on a more personal level\, and sets the scene for the announcement of the annual BIBF scholarship recipient. This award is given to an outstanding international student and made possible by the generous donations of the forum’s sponsors.
