Spring Magazine Dean’S Welcome Spring 2015
Spring Magazine Dean’s Welcome Spring 2015 We welcome spring and the beauty of its message, both literal and figurative, that this is a time to start fresh, to bloom, and to smell the roses. The School of Humanities is itself springing forward—six faculty books have published since January with three more coming out in April, innovative new courses are being offered, our students are completing award-winning research and we continue to build relationships with foundations and community leaders who believe in our mission. Inside of this magazine, we pick up from where we left off in our Annual Report. You’ll get an in-depth look at what our faculty, students and alumni are accomplishing. I express my gratitude to professors Jonathan Alexander, Erika Hayasaki, Tiffany Willoughby-Herard, Claire Jean Kim and Kristen Hatch for sharing their latest research with us; to students Jessica Bond and Jazmyne McNeese for letting us see how studying the humanities is shaping their worldviews and life ambitions; and to alumnae Pheobe Bui and Aline Ohanesian for showing us where a humanities education has taken them today. I encourage you to keep in touch with us and the school’s latest developments by joining on us Facebook and Twitter and by staying tuned every second Tuesday of the month for timely faculty-led insight into today’s most topical issues via Humanities Headlines, our exclusive webinar series. If you are local, take a look at the events listed at the end of the magazine--we’d love to see you there. Sincerely, Georges Van Den Abbeele Dean, School of the Humanities SCHOOL UPDATES SPRING | 2015 3 Humanities Studio Embodies UCI’s Global Mission with Language Tools & World-Class space where students and faculty can learn, teach, and conduct research with support from staff who understand their needs,” said Franz. -
Lessons Learned from Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg
LESSONS LEARNED FROM JUSTICE RUTH BADER GINSBURG Amanda L. Tyler* INTRODUCTION Serving as a law clerk for Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg in the Supreme Court’s October Term 1999 was one of the single greatest privileges and honors of my life. As a trailblazer who opened up opportunities for women, she was a personal hero. How many people get to say that they worked for their hero? Justice Ginsburg was defined by her brilliance, her dedication to public service, her resilience, and her unwavering devotion to taking up the Founders’ calling, set out in the Preamble to our Constitution, to make ours a “more perfect Union.”1 She was a profoundly dedicated public servant in no small measure because she appreciated just how important her role was in ensuring that our Constitution belongs to everyone. Whether as an advocate or a Justice, she tirelessly fought to dismantle discrimination and more generally to open opportunities for every person to live up to their full human potential. Without question, she left this world a better place than she found it, and we are all the beneficiaries. As an advocate, Ruth Bader Ginsburg challenged our society to liber- ate all persons from the gender-based stereotypes that held them back. As a federal judge for forty years—twenty-seven of them on the Supreme Court—she continued and expanded upon that work, even when it meant in dissent calling out her colleagues for improperly walking back earlier gains or halting future progress.2 In total, she wrote over 700 opinions on the D.C. -

Primer Festival De Literatura Infantil-Juvenil 13 AL 17 DE OCTUBRE 2010 Centro Cultural De España
Primer Festival de Literatura Infantil-Juvenil 13 AL 17 DE OCTUBRE 2010 Centro Cultural de España PROGRAMA DE ACTIVIDADES CENTRO CULTURAL DE ESPAÑA Primer Festival de Literatura Infantil y Juvenil 13 al 17 de octubre 2010 PROGRAMA CENTRO CULTURAL DE ESPAÑA Av. Providencia 927, Metro Salvador. T. (56-2) 795 97 00 / www.ccespana.cl / [email protected] PRIMER FESTIVAL DE LITERATURA INFANTIL Y JUVENIL “Con la sola compañía de un libro, el niño crea imágenes en algún lugar de la cámara secreta del alma, que superan a todas las demás. Estas imágenes son fundamentales para los seres humanos. El día en que los niños ya no logren crear estas imágenes, será el día en que la humanidad caiga en la pobreza. Todo lo grandioso que ha ocurri- do en el mundo, es producto de la imaginación de alguien. Las condiciones del mundo del mañana dependen, en gran medida, de la capacidad imaginativa de quienes en nuestros días, están aprendiendo a leer. Por ello, los niños necesitan libros." Astrid Lindgren. Escritora sueca. Este festival tiene por misión familiarizar a los niños y jóvenes con el goce de leer y el poder de transformación que tienen los libros en las vidas de las personas, especialmente entre los niños y jóvenes que están apren- diendo a crecer y a crear. El festival les permitirá adentrarse en el mundo de la fantasía y la imaginación, pudiendo interactuar con los escritores de sus libros favoritos, conocerlos y dialogar con ellos. Tendremos un programa muy variado que incluye mesas redondas de es- pecialistas en literatura infantil y juvenil, talleres, teatro infantil, feria de libros, exposiciones de ilustraciones, películas y espectáculos de narración oral escénica. -

One late winter weekend, Greg happened to drive by the Metro, a legendary Chicago music venue, and saw a line of kids that stretched down the block. What made the scene unusual wasn’t just the crowd—it was what they were waiting for: the marquee read, “Louder Than a Bomb Youth Poetry Slam Finals.” Teenagers, hundreds of them, of every shape, size, and color, lined up on a Saturday night to see poetry? In Chicago!? Whatever this thing is, it must be interesting. The more we saw, the more convinced we became that, in fact, it was. There was the LTAB community—a remarkable combination of democracy and meritocracy, where everyone’s voice is respected, but the kids all know who can really bring it. There were the performances themselves—bold, brave, and often searingly memorable. And there were the coaches, teachers, and parents, whose tireless support would become a quietly inspiring thread throughout the film. -
The Reimagined Paradise: African Immigrants in the United States, Nollywood Film, and the Digital Remediation of 'Home'
THE REIMAGINED PARADISE: AFRICAN IMMIGRANTS IN THE UNITED STATES, NOLLYWOOD FILM, AND THE DIGITAL REMEDIATION OF 'HOME' Tori O. Arthur A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY August 2016 Committee: Radhika Gajjala, Advisor Patricia Sharp Graduate Faculty Representative Vibha Bhalla Lara Lengel © 2016 Tori O. Arthur All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Radhika Gajjala, Advisor This dissertation analyzes how African immigrants from nations south of the Sahara become affective citizens of a universal Africa through the consumption of Nigerian cinema, known as Nollywood, in digital spaces. Employing a phenomenological approach to examine lived experience, this study explores: 1) how American media aids African pre-migrants in constructing the United States as a paradise rooted in the American Dream; 2) immigrants’ responses when the ‘imagined paradise’ does not match their American realities; 3) the ways Nigerian films articulate a distinctly African cultural experience that enables immigrants from various nations to identify with the stories reflected on screen; and, 4) how viewing Nollywood films in social media platforms creates a digital sub-diaspora that enables a reconnection with African culture when life in the United States causes intellectual and emotional dissonance. Using voices of members from the African immigrant communities currently living in the United States and analysis of their online media consumption, this study ultimately argues that the Nigerian film industry, a transnational cinema with consumers across the African diaspora, continuously creates a fantastical affective world that offers immigrants tools to connect with their African cultural values. -

Episode 8: The Action Pack Female: You are listening to the Slack Male: Variety pack Female: A collection of stories about work, Male: Life, and everything in between. Female: Brought to you by Slack. If you don't know what slack is, head over to Slack.com and change your working life forever. Female: On this episode, what if physical stores started acting like online stores? Male: Here's a pair of underwear too. Female: What? Male: Customers who bought this socks also bought this underwear. Female: Okay. Yeah. I'll get those too. Female: Learn about a list that's empowering writers and affecting Hollywood for the better. Male: Movies that have been made from scripts that were on the annual black list: Whiplash, American Sniper, Selma, A King Speech, The Descendants. Female: Meet the man who could not be more excited about the coming era of Bots. Male: I just love them and I wake up in the morning thinking like, "Oh, I know what the Bot can do now". Female: But first, what if HR departments were run by school kids? Male: Slack variety pack? Male: Yeah. Male: Cool. Female: Making work less worky. Episode 8 – The Action Pack Page 2 of 14 Male: Sometimes, we tend to over think the way to solve problems in the workplace. Maybe it's because most companies have codes of conducts that are thicker than an old phone book. We thought it might be time to get back to basics. We took some of the most common employee problems to a group of kids. -

In order to organize our topic, the text follows a chronological order, particularly, since the very first moment when the authors published a graphic illustration in a young reader’s publication, either magazines or books.
