For more information, please contact [email protected]. FUTURE WORLD(S): A Critique of Disney's EPCOT and Creating a Futuristic Curriculum by ALAN BOWERS (Under the Direction of Daniel Chapman) ABSTRACT In my dissertation inquiry, I explore the need for utopian based curriculum which was inspired by Walt Disney’s EPCOT Center. Theoretically building upon such works regarding utopian visons (Bregman, 2017, e.g., Claeys 2011;) and Disney studies (Garlen and Sandlin, 2016; Fjellman, 1992), this work combines historiography and speculative essays as its methodologies. In addition, this project explores how schools must do the hard work of working toward building a better future (Chomsky and Foucault, 1971). Through tracing the evolution of EPCOT as an idea for a community that would “always be in the state of becoming” to EPCOT Center as an inspirational theme park, this work contends that those ideas contain possibilities for how to interject utopian thought in schooling.

  • Holiday Letter 2009 1 Ruth Made a Wonderful Christmas Dinner
    ur 2009 holiday letter comes to you from beautiful Dominica, Nature Island of the Caribbean where we live now, spending some time O high-class formal snorkeling. We posted our 2008 letter early, after selling our Westboro MA home of over 30 years just before Thanksgiving. This update begins with our move on November 20, 2008. We had our first Thanksgiving away from home in 30 years, visiting our daughter Mathilda in New York City. Dinner was a great affair; a gathering of several of her friends with us as guests. On the trip we visited my cousin Bruce (retired NYC teacher now an art photographer www.flickr.com/photos/brucelivingston) & his wife Linda at their lovely restored farmhouse in Asbury NJ. (Not Asbury Park, the seashore resort; a little town in NJ’s northwest hills.) Then we swung down to the central seashore to visit my sister Naomi & husband Larry in Neptune City NJ and stayed with best friends Roger & Rita in Toms River NJ. We dropped off our 1997 Mazda Miata (above w/Ruth, in front of our former home) which they bought. Ruth’s official retirement date was December 31, 2008, but she used earned time off to make December 12 her last day at the office. Her friends from her US Army Soldier Systems Center office and from her former US Army Corps of Engineers office threw her a lovely sentimental farewell/retirement party. We departed the US December 13 and after an overnight in Puerto Rico we arrived in Dominica to establish our new home Sunday, December, 14.

  • Triple Bottom Line Preliminary Feasibility Study of the GM Oshawa Facility: Possibilities for Sustainable Community Wealth
    Triple Bottom Line Preliminary Feasibility Study of the GM Oshawa Facility: Possibilities for Sustainable Community Wealth Summary Overview Report September 2019 . Germany's Post Office (Deutsche Post) developed and began manufacturing Streetscooter battery electric vans in 2016 to replace its 70,000 vehicle fleet (photo: Reuters 2017). Russ Christianson 1696 9th Line West, Campbellford, Ontario, Canada K0L 1L0 705-653-0527 [email protected] Triple Bottom Line Preliminary Feasibility Study of the GM Oshawa Facility: Possibilities for Sustainable Community Wealth Summary Overview GM Oshawa Plant It is a tragic irony that General Motors (GM) chose its hundredth anniversary in Oshawa to announce the December 2019 closure of its Oshawa assembly plant. This means the loss of over 15,000 jobs in Ontario: 2,200 GM assembly jobs, 300 salaried positions, 500 temporary contract positions, 1,000 inside and 1,000 outside supplier jobs, and a related 10,400 multiplier jobs. The closure of Oshawa’s assembly plant is estimated to decrease Ontario’s GDP by $4 billion per year until 2030, also reducing federal and provincial revenues by about $1 billion a year.1 Over the months following the November 26, 2018 plant closure announcement, GM and Unifor (formerly the Canadian Auto Workers’ union) negotiated the Oshawa Transformation Agreement (May 2019)2 that promises: • 300 stamping and parts assembly jobs and a $170 million investment. • Donating the 87-acre Mclaughlin Bay Reserve to the City of Oshawa. • A 55-acre test track for autonomous vehicles. It has yet to be seen, whether GM will keep its promise. But even if they do, it will still mean losing over 13,000 jobs and a major hit to the economy.
