In 1951, the Fashion Institute of Technology became one of the first community colleges under the program of the State University of New York empowered to grant the Associate in Applied Science degree. An amendment to the education law of New York State was approved in 1975 permitting the college to also confer Bachelor of Science and Bachelor of Fine Arts degrees. In 1979 another amendment was approved authorizing the granting of master's degrees. Master of Arts degree programs, first introduced in 1985, are offered in Gallery and Retail Art Administration; Museum Studies: Applied Arts; and Museum Studies: Costume and Textiles. F.I.T.® is a public institution, receiving its principal financial support from the State and City of New York. The college is governed by its own Board of Trustees, most of whom have made the industry their lives' work, and are committed to the development of talent. The college's local sponsorship comes from the Board of Education of the City of New York in cooperation with the Educational Foundation for the Fashion Industries. It is an accredited institutional member of the Middle States Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools, the National Association of Schools of Art and Design, and the Foundation for Interior Design Educational Research. The Fashion Institute of Technology is a specialized college of art and design, business and technology devoted to preparing men and women for careers in fashion and its related professions and industries, and also to providing leadership, research, and other services to those professions and industries. As a college totally committed to career education with a broad cultural background, F.I.T. offers not only essential professional preparation, but also a full range of liberal arts courses, as well as counseling and placement services, extra-curricular activities, and access to the cultural life of New York City. Since its graduates are prepared to enter design, management, advertising, industrial engineering, merchandising, and other fashion-oriented fields, it welcomes students with special aptitudes. 3 Today, F.I.T.'s campus in midtown Manhattan is situated near the heart of the fashion industry-executive offices, design studios, manufacturing plants, and distribution and merchandising centers. In day, summer, Winterim, and evening sessions, the college serves over 12,000 students, both American and foreign, each year. Affirming that individual growth is the primary goal of any sound educational program, and that F.1.T. has a particular mission of service to the fashion and related industries, the college works to achieve the following objectives: ... to prepare men and women for professional careers in the fashion and related industries . to develop in its students creative individual thinking based on reasoning . to develop in its students a sense of their uniqueness as individuals with a recognition of their potential. ... to excite the curiosity of the students about the larger worlds of which they are a part. ... to assist the students in their continuing discovery of the depth and breadth of the human experience. Affirmative Action/ Equal Opportunity It is the policy of the Fashion Institute of Technology to treat students and employees without discrimination based on age, sex, race, religion, national origin, physical disability, and military or marital status. The manager of Affirmative Action and Employment actively seeks minority applicants for both professional and staff positions as they become available within the college. Policies to achieve equality are made and enforced based on a positive commitment to the objectives of F.I.T. in compliance with federal and state regulations. The Affirmative Action Office in the Human Resources Department is also involved in the development of ancillary resources in the community for use by the college in its urban affairs commitments. Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 defines and forbids acts of discrimination against qualified handicapped persons in employment and in the operation of programs and activities receiving federal financial assistance. The Fashion Institute of Technology adheres to the policy that no otherwise-qualified handicapped individual shall, solely by reason of his/her handicap, be excluded from the participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any program or activity of the college. Inquiries concerning Affirmative Action/Equal Opportunity should be directed to the manager of Affirmative Action and Employment. 4 1111Campus New York City The traditional college campus has always been a green oasis, whether in the heart of a city or in a small town, and it served to separate the institution from the community surrounding it, creating a rarefied and somewhat artificial educational atmosphere. F.I.T., on the other hand, is in no way isolated from the immediate geographical or larger commercial community it serves. All New York is its campus. The interaction between the community and the college on every level-educational, social, cultural, economic-is dynamic and productive. The entire city serves as a laboratory for F.I.T. students for learning and living. Through specific assigned projects, they are introduced to New York's museums and libraries and to the many different segments of the fashion industry. Through the college's Offices of Community Resources and Student Activities, students at F.I.T. are given the opportunity to discover opera, dance, drama, galleries and private art collections, expositions of the visual arts, and the spoken and written facets of the communication media. Administration and Classroom Buildings The classrooms and laboratories house equipment that reflects the most advanced educational and industrial practices. Specially equipped studios provide creative work areas for students in the fine and applied arts. Technical classrooms and production laboratories that simulate profes- sional conditions are important in the instructional program. In classroom and independent work, the student may learn how scientific principles are applied to solving problems. Computer-furnished facilities serve students in all three instructional divisions. In the computer graphics laboratories, Art and Design students explore new techniques in computer-aided and/or computer- assisted design for textile, interior, fashion, and advertising design. The Art and Design graphics laboratory is a complete, state-of-the-art facility for the development of highly finished presentations. The laboratory offers students "hands-on" experience and the opportunity to produce camera-ready art by providing black-and-white and color photostat cameras, computerized typesetting equipment, book-binding, laminating, color-key, and graphic imaging equipment. The Liberal Arts computer laboratory, equipped with micro-computers, is used for course work in science and mathematics as well as for computer literacy workshops offered at the college. The Business and Technology Division's computer laboratories for apparel production, textile science, and communications simulate industry environments. Located on the second floor of the Dubinsky Student Center, the Design/Research Lighting Laboratory (DRLL) provides Interior Design students, as well as students from other majors, the opportunity to study lighting design through "hands-on" experimentation and first- 5 hand observation.

    What canI do? Can hatred be stopped? Will future generations remember the Holocaust? After the Holocaust, why can’t the world stop genocide? What canI do? Am I a bystander? A living memorial to the Holocaust, the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum inspires leaders and citizens to confront hatred, prevent genocide, promote human dignity and strengthen democracy. Federal support guarantees the Museum’s permanent place on the National Mall, but its educational programs and global outreach are made possible by the generosity of donors nationwide through annual and legacy giving. 2006–07 | ANNUAL REPORT UNITED STATES HOLOCAUST MEMORIAL MUSEUM UNITED STATES HOLOCAUST MEMORIAL MUSEUM ushmm.org 100 Raoul Wallenberg Place, SW Washington, DC 20024-2126 ushmm.org What must be done? What is the Museum’s role in the 21st century? What have we learned from history? From Our Leadership he crimes of the Holocaust were once described as “so calculated, so malignant, and Tso devastating that civilization cannot bear their being ignored because it cannot survive their being repeated.” How do we move from memory to action? When Justice Robert Jackson uttered these words at Nuremberg, could he have possibly imagined that six decades later his assertion would be a matter of doubt? These words marked what seemed to be a pivotal moment, a watershed in which all that followed would remain in the long shadow of the crime. There was a commitment to not ignore, to not repeat. Yet today, we must ask: Have we arrived at another pivotal moment in which the nature of the crime feels quite relevant, yet the commitment to prevent another human tragedy quite hollow? What must be done? What can we do as individuals? As institutions? | FROM OUR LEADERSHIP 1 For us the key question is: What is the role of the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum? 2 | CONFRONTING ANTISEMITISM AND DENIAL 16 | PREVENTING GENOCIDE The Museum cannot eliminate evil and hatred.

  • Closing the Achievement
    2006 Closing the ANNUAL REPORT ExpandingAchievement Opportunities for Children and Gap Adults with Learning Disabilities National Center Learning Disabilities, Inc. The power to hope, to learn, and to succeed The National Center for Learning Disabilities (NCLD) works to ensure that the nation’s 15 million children, adolescents and adults with learning disabilities have every opportunity to succeed in school, work and life. NCLD provides essential information to parents, professionals and individuals with learning disabilities; promotes research and programs to foster effective learning; and advocates for policies to protect and strengthen educational rights and opportunities. Our Mission As NCLD looks back at 2006—our 29th year—we acknowledge two important realities for individuals with learning disabilities (LD): ■ Message First, children and adults with LD are achieving more FROM THE CHAIRMAN success than ever before—whether in school, at work or AND EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR in life. Trends in many key performance areas are positive. Dropout rates are lower, more students are graduating with a standard high school diploma and more are attending college. ■ Second, children with LD continue to perform far below their peers. Two-thirds of students with learning deficits, whether in math or in reading, fall three or more grade levels behind their classmates—a recipe not only for academic failure, but for poor self-esteem, as well. These achievement gaps are unacceptable. They demand attention, innovative solutions based on scientific research and a larger infusion of financial support from both private and public sources. In the past year, NCLD has renewed its efforts to help close gaps like these—by developing and implementing research-based programs, by strengthening public policy and by providing parents and educators with the information they need to make good decisions for their children.

  • 08 Annual Report
    08 ANNUAL REPORT from the director | 08 ANNUAL REPORT Dear Friends, 2008 was a monumental year for the Museum of Arts and Design. On June 2nd, we closed our doors on West 53rd Street forever. A gathering that evening brought Board of Trustees members, staff, and friends together to celebrate our achievements in that space—and to look forward to the opening of the Museum’s new home in late September. A flurry of activity—starting with a media preview and continuing through the Mayor’s cutting of the ribbon surrounding 2 Columbus Circle to a grand free public art festival on the weekend of September 27—heralded the opening of the newest, and most enthusiastically embraced, cultural institution in New York City. You will read, elsewhere in this report, of the 10,000 people who stood outside 2 Columbus Circle opening weekend to be the first into the new Museum; of the open studios, where for the first time in New York City artists in our field came together with the museum-going public to discuss and show their work in process; of the educational programs which have brought thousands of children, teachers, and families to the center of Manhattan to learn by doing. You’ll read of the technological advances in the new Museum; of the remarkable new public and retail spaces; and of Holly Hotchner the thousands of people who joined the Museum as members in its first three months Nanette L. Laitman Director on Columbus Circle. You’ll read the story of how a small museum—the brainchild of one remarkable woman, Aileen Osborne Webb—grew into the nation’s premier destination for the study of contemporary craft, arts, and design.

  • The Performative Power of Vogue's Anna Wintour
    “That’s Part of What We Do”: The Performative Power of Vogue ’s Anna Wintour David Weiss Journal of Magazine Media, Volume 15, Number 1, Spring 2014, (Article) Published by University of Nebraska Press DOI: https://doi.org/10.1353/jmm.2014.0013 For additional information about this article https://muse.jhu.edu/article/773690/summary [ Access provided at 25 Sep 2021 00:42 GMT with no institutional affiliation ] Vogue’s Anna Wintour “That’s Part of What We Do”: The Performative Power of Vogue’s Anna Wintour David Weiss, University of New Mexico [email protected] Abstract Vogue is universally recognized as the fashion world’s most influential magazine, and its editor Anna Wintour routinely hailed as the most powerful person in fashion. Wintour’s power, however, extends far beyond her influence on readers’ clothing tastes and purchases. Acting behind the scenes as consultant, kingmaker, power broker, and promoter to the fashion industry, Wintour inserts herself into fashion’s creative, business, and marketing practices, thus shaping the contours of the world her magazine purports to merely cover. In doing so, Wintour enacts her own interpretations of a number of foundational media theories and suggests ways to expand our understanding of the scope of media effects. Keywords: fashion industry, gatekeeping, magazine editors, media effects, media theories, Vogue Introduction “Everywhere she goes, the waters part. The entire industry responds to Anna’s taste, her likes, her dislikes” (R. J. Cutler, quoted in Block, 2009). “Anna,” of course, is Anna Wintour, editor-in-chief of Vogue since 1988 and the person routinely described as the most powerful in fashion.1 R.
