  • Korean Dance and Pansori in D.C.: Interactions with Others, the Body, and Collective Memory at a Korean Performing Arts Studio
    ABSTRACT Title of Document: KOREAN DANCE AND PANSORI IN D.C.: INTERACTIONS WITH OTHERS, THE BODY, AND COLLECTIVE MEMORY AT A KOREAN PERFORMING ARTS STUDIO Lauren Rebecca Ash-Morgan, M.A., 2009 Directed By: Professor Robert C. Provine School of Music This thesis is the result of seventeen months’ field work as a dance and pansori student at the Washington Korean Dance Company studio. It examines the studio experience, focusing on three levels of interaction. First, I describe participants’ interactions with each other, which create a strong studio community and a women’s “Korean space” at the intersection of culturally hybrid lives. Second, I examine interactions with the physical challenges presented by these arts and explain the satisfaction that these challenges can generate using Csikszentmihalyi’s theory of “optimal experience” or “flow.” Third, I examine interactions with discourse on the meanings and histories of these arts. I suggest that participants can find deeper significance in performing these arts as a result of this discourse, forming intellectual and emotional bonds to imagined people of the past and present. Finally, I explain how all these levels of interaction can foster in the participant an increasingly rich and complex identity. KOREAN DANCE AND PANSORI IN D.C.: INTERACTIONS WITH OTHERS, THE BODY, AND COLLECTIVE MEMORY AT A KOREAN PERFORMING ARTS STUDIO By Lauren Rebecca Ash-Morgan Thesis submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Maryland, College Park, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts 2009 Advisory Committee: Dr. Robert C.

  • Honors Night Wednesday, the Third of June
    ORANGE COAST COLLEGE SIXTY-SECOND HONORS NIGHT WEDNESDAY, THE THIRD OF JUNE TWO THOUSAND TWENTY SIX O’CLOCK IN THE EVENING THE SPIRIT OF OCC “There is no education like adversity” -Benjamin Disraeli There is little doubt that 2020 will find itself explored, examined and studied in future history books. At OCC, this year will surely be remembered for its adversity -- it is the year we suffered the tragic loss of a legendary baseball coach, and the year we were driven away from our beloved campus by an unprecedented global pandemic due to the spread of COVID-19, a novel coronavirus. However, it is also the year we saw our campus community come together and demonstrate the commitment to our students and community which define our College - this is the Spirit of OCC. Tonight, as we honor our best and brightest students for their hard work and dedication, we also celebrate the undefeatable spirit that makes our College so special. Although we can’t be together in person, nothing can stop us from honoring your achievements, your hard work, and your accomplishments. Here are a few examples of the Spirit of OCC: + In January, as news of the death of OCC’s baseball head coach John Altobelli reached players and fellow coaches, the devastation rippled across campus. “Coach Alto” was a giant at OCC during his 27 years of service, always going the extra mile to help his student athletes succeed. Faced with the tough decision about whether or not to move ahead with the first game of the season just two days after Altobelli’s death, OCC’s ball players displayed the courage and dedication of their leader and decided to play.

  • California Community Colleges Baccalaureate Degree
    California Community Colleges Baccalaureate Degree RECOMMENDED PILOT PROGRAMS Antelope Valley College - AIRFRAME MANUFACTURING TECHNOLOGY Summary The proposed program meets the need in the aerospace industry for multi-skilled individuals who understand, perform, and serve as first-line leads in the major processes of manufacturing the structural components of an aircraft for civilian and military specifications. The program's curriculum addresses airframe manufacturing, aircraft fabrication (structures and composites), electronics, and welding. Bakersfield - INDUSTRIAL AUTOMATION Summary Bachelor’s degree in Industrial Automation: The proposed program responds to today’s industry needs for engineering teams involved in developing new products or systems. This team is typically composed of engineers, technologists and technicians. Engineers apply their knowledge of mathematics and science to develop ways to economically utilize natural resources for the benefit of mankind through a wide spectrum of activities including the conception, design, development and formulation of new systems and products. Technologists are typically graduates of baccalaureate-level programs that emphasize the application of scientific and technical knowledge; they participate in activities surrounding applied design, manufacturing, product assurance, sales and project management. Technicians work with equipment, assembling, repairing and testing devices or systems based on technical skills rather than scientific knowledge used in the original design. Crafton Hills - EMERGENCY SERVICES & ALLIED HEALTH SYSTEMS Summary This program is designed to respond to both existing and emerging workforce needs in an evolving healthcare system that is faced with challenges such as caring for an aging population, the implementation of the Affordable Healthcare Act, and outbreaks of potentially deadly diseases such as Ebola. In the Inland Empire, these issues are exacerbated by inadequate facilities and staffing shortages.

  • Coast Community College District PETITION for ACADEMIC RENEWAL Originating Campus: Coastline College Golden West College Orange Coast College
    Coast Coast Community College District PETITION FOR ACADEMIC RENEWAL Originating Campus: Coastline College Golden West College Orange Coast College This Academic Renewal Policy for Coast Community College District is issued pursuant to Section 55040 of the California Administrative Code (Title 5) regulations, and CCCD BP4240. The purpose of this policy is to disregard past substandard academic performance of a student when such work is not reflective of his/her current demonstrated ability. It is based on the recognition that due to unusual (extenuating) circumstances, or circumstances beyond the student’s control, the past substandard work will negatively affect the student’s ability to complete his/her educational goals. Academic Renewal is intended to facilitate graduation from a College in the District or enable qualified students to transfer to a four-year college or university. If specific conditions are met, (as listed below) the Coast Community College District colleges may disregard courses from all consideration associated with the computation of a student’s cumulative GPA up to a maximum of thirty (30) semester units of coursework taken at any College in the District for graduation or transfer purposes only. If another accredited college has acted to remove previous course work from consideration in computing the GPA, such action shall be honored in terms of its procedure. However, such units disregarded shall be deducted from the 30-semester unit maximum of coursework eligible to be disregarded at a College in the District. 1. The course work to be disregarded is substandard (grades of D, F, or NP.) If approved, the selected coursework shall be disregarded in that semester, except those courses required as a prerequisite or to satisfy a requirement of the student’s current declared program of study.
