I examine how song and dance – sites of aesthetic difference within the musical – can warp time and enable marginalized and semi-marginalized fans to imagine different ways of being in the world. Musical numbers can complicate a linear, developmental plot by accelerating and decelerating time, foregrounding repetition and circularity, bringing the past to life and projecting into the future, and physicalizing dreams in a narratively open present. These excesses have the potential to contest naturalized constructions of historical, progressive time, as well as concordant constructions of gender, sexual, and racial identities. While the musical has historically been a rich source of identification for the stereotypical white gay male show queen, this project validates a broad and flexible range of non-normative readings.

Now that the year has turned and my life is getting back to some semblance of normalcy I wanted to get a letter out to everyone to recap some news and to look forward to our upcoming 25th Class Reunion at the Big Bash 2013. I was able to make it back to Wabash at the end of September for much of the Homecoming weekend festivities. While there I was able to share a very enjoyable dinner on Friday night with both Eric Stark and Scott Smalstig at the celebration for the Challenge of Excellence campaign. Sorry Brother Quick, you should have answered your phone, both the dinner and the company were great. Highlights from the evening can be found at http://www.wabash.edu/news/displaystory.cfm?news_ID=9648. For those with inquiring minds, the Challenge of Excellence had a goal of raising $60 million by the end of 2013. The campaign ended over a year ahead of schedule with a total of $68,116,695. Thank you to all who contributed over the past couple years, what an outstanding accomplishment. In addition to the Challenge of Excellence dinner, the weekend marked the 100th anniversary of Homecoming and the 120th anniversary of the Wabash College Glee Club.

RED SHOW, BLUE SHOW: A CONTENT ANALYSIS OF LIBERALS’ AND CONSERVATIVES’ RESPECTIVE TELEVISION FAVORITES by NICK ROGERS Under the Direction of Ben L. Kail, PhD ABSTRACT Ideological partisans in the United States are increasingly “sorting” themselves along cultural lines, from the cable news stations they watch to the chain restaurants they prefer. How do partisans seem to “know” how to sort themselves along ideological lines in cultural realms that offer no obvious political cues? To investigate this question, I look to the realm of narrative television, where conservatives and liberals have certain unique favorite programs despite the programs lacking any overt political content. I employ a quantitative content analysis to demonstrate that the substance of these polarizing shows relate to the social traits of curiosity, conformity, relativism, dogmatism, tribalism, vigilance, and chastity, which have previously been demonstrated to correspond to political ideology.

  • Building Secure and Reliable Systems
    Building Secure & Reliable Systems Best Practices for Designing, Implementing and Maintaining Systems Compliments of Heather Adkins, Betsy Beyer, Paul Blankinship, Piotr Lewandowski, Ana Oprea & Adam Stubblefi eld Praise for Building Secure and Reliable Systems It is very hard to get practical advice on how to build and operate trustworthy infrastructure at the scale of billions of users. This book is the first to really capture the knowledge of some of the best security and reliability teams in the world, and while very few companies will need to operate at Google’s scale many engineers and operators can benefit from some of the hard-earned lessons on securing wide-flung distributed systems. This book is full of useful insights from cover to cover, and each example and anecdote is heavy with authenticity and the wisdom that comes from experimenting, failing and measuring real outcomes at scale. It is a must for anybody looking to build their systems the correct way from day one. —Alex Stamos, Director of the Stanford Internet Observatory and former CISO of Facebook and Yahoo This book is a rare treat for industry veterans and novices alike: instead of teaching information security as a discipline of its own, the authors offer hard-wrought and richly illustrated advice for building software and operations that actually stood the test of time. In doing so, they make a compelling case for reliability, usability, and security going hand-in-hand as the entirely inseparable underpinnings of good system design. —Michał Zalewski, VP of Security Engineering at Snap, Inc. and author of The Tangled Web and Silence on the Wire This is the “real world” that researchers talk about in their papers.
