U .S. criticized for backing Israel: The United States’ strong support for Israel is drawing little backing from other nations and could hurt the coalition against terrorism. Egypt and Jordan have distanced themselves from President Bush, worried that anger against Israel could spill over into new protests in their countries. Europeans are pressing for a faster Israeli pullout. Jordan’s prime minister urged America, in a telephone call with Powell on Tuesday, to intercede to force Israel to withdraw from the West Bank. Rwandan genocide trial begins: The trial of four former Rwandan army offi­ i cials charged with masterminding the 1994 massacre of more than 500,000 people opened Tuesday with U.N. prosecutors accus­ ing them of “unleashing a legion of ferocious demons” on the victims.

Attorney Jeffrey Anderson said he will file suits that accuse the Holy See, two religious orders, and the diocese of Portland, Ore., Chicago and St. Petersburg, Fla., of conspiring to hide two abusive clergymen by moving them across state and national lines.Anderson has represented more than 400 plaintiffs in abuse lawsuits against church officials since the 1980s.

W hc IXnew? Student Government sponsors Who Knew? ads...

When we were running for office back in February, we promised weekly “Who Knew?” advertisements in The Observer. %All too often, students are left in the dark about new or existing programs and services. Now that we’re in office, we want to make students aware of existing resources. Every Wednesday, we will be sponsoring a “Who Knew?” ad in The Observer to highlight a service that few students know about. Please look for these ads on Wednesdays!

And now for our first...

WllO Knew? Student Governmentis a resource...

Our office is located in 203 LaFortune and is open from 9 a.m. - 5 p.m. every Monday through Friday. What Can Student Government Do For You? If you are sponsoring an event, the Office of the Student Body President might be able to help. The Bishop/Foley administration is interested in helping other organizations in order to insure attractive programming for a wide range of students. We can also help student groups who are working on special projects. For example, last year the Office of the President worked with Students for Environmental Action to make reusable Grab and Go bags a reality. We are also the official voice of students on campus. Because this is perhaps our most challenging role, we encourage students to come to us with their questions and concerns. p g 10 age

KEOUGH INSTITUTE FOR IRISH STUDIES

Some Undergraduate Courses for fall 2002:

IRISH LANGUAGE IRST 101 Beginning Irish I An introduction to modem spoken and written Irish: basic principles of grammar and sentence structure, as well as core vocabulary. Emphasis is placed on the application of these principles in every-day situations. Students learn how to conduct simple conversations: talking about oneself and asking information of others; talking about family and home; describing the weather and daily activities.

HISTORY OF IRELAND IRST 326B Irish History I This course explores the main themes in Irish history from the Plantation of Ulster in the early Cl7th through the rebellion of 1798, a period that witnessed the emergence of many forces and rivalries that have shaped modern Irish society and politic. IRST 441 The Vikings Did the Vikings contribute anything to western civilization other than plunder and pillage, pagan savagery, and horned helmets? This course examines the Vikings’ impact on Europe and North America over four centuries. Discussion centers on primary sources from England, Ireland, France, Russia, and Scandinavia, archaeological evidence and modern treatments of Vikings in film and literature. IRST 235 The Irish American Experience For sophomores only, this course will examine the history of the Irish in the U.S. In many respects the Irish are the great success story in American history They have moved from the shanty towns to the board rooms of Wall Street. Along the way they have left their mark on American politics, literature, religion, and the Labor Movement; these arc the areas that the course will study. The heart of the course will be the century of immigration, 1820-1920.

IRISH LITERATURE IRST 471 Dying Cultures: Studies in Six Irish W riters 1910-2000 Bram Stoker, W. B. Yeats, J. M. Synge, Elizabeth Bowen, Seamus Heaney, Medbh McGuckian. The aim of the course is to look at the exemplary role assigned to the notion of a dying culture in the work of the authors listed here. The versions of such cultures are the pre-modern (Stoker); the Anglo-Irish and the Modern (Yeats and Bowen); the traditional Gaelic culture (Synge); and Northern Ireland (or ‘the North’), in Heaney and McGuckian. Close examination of the fiction, drama and poetry involved will be reinforced by an analysis of the versions of history deployed by these authors, most especially those versions dominated by the notion of a conflict between ‘tradition’ and ‘modernity’. IRST 453 Visits to Bedlam He gave the little wealth he had, / To build a house for fools and mad . . Dean Swift’s obsession with establishing a hospital for the ‘insane’ in Cl8th Dublin signals a wider interest in the Age of Reason with madness, the irrational, and what Freud called the unheimlich, or the uncanny. Beginning with Don Quixote, a work that did much to construct early modern ideas about madness, the course moves through short readings in Cl7th and Cl8th writers, philosophers, and physicians who analyzed madness. A key question is to what extent was madness seen as a ‘national’ trait and to what extent did that idea and its supposed opposite, "rationality’, define certain views of ‘Englishness’? The course ends with a consideration of later representations of madness, including D racula and Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. IRS I 302 C rime and Violence in the Nineteenth-Century Irish and British Novel This course explores different dimensions of the Cl9th concept of crime through novels written in Ireland and Britain during the last half of the century. Key texts, including Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes, an extensive selection of Fenian prose, Bram Stoker’s D racula and Joseph Conrad’s The Secret Agent, provide diverse perspectives on history and literature and a framework for discussion of violence and social change, sexuality, economics, and politics. IRST 303 Victorian Empire W riting 1868-1901 The late Cl9th United Kingdom witnessed considerable democratization, a process that many conservatives feared would lead to anarchy throughout the Empire. In fact, crown and empire became ever more popular. This course explores how literature bolstered the ideology of imperialism in the popular imagination, paying particular attention to the intersection between the troubled categories of race and gender and exploring Ireland’s anomalous relationship to Empire by comparing Irish writing with that of India and Africa. ’i /T ' : 1 '-"03 -k w# ANTHROPOLOGY IRST 321 Folklore, National Culture and Irish Identity The notion of folklore emerged in the late Cl8th and C19th. Closely associated with ideas of cultural relativism, from the romantic period on it became an important resource to national movements in search of cultural authenticity. This course explores the idea of folklore within the history of ideas and examines the relationships between folklore and popular culture and modernity. It looks at the Irish case in detail, from the beginnings of scholarly interest in popular culture to the institutionalization of folklore study in the southern state. IRST 324 Irish 1 raditional Culture Yes, it had to happen; finally a course about the Leprechaun but not as you know him . . . This course is concerned with narrative traditions (stories and storytelling), popular religion (folk belief) and material culture (folklife), traditionally the core areas for researchers in folklore and folklife. It interrogates the notion of ‘traditional culture’, implicit or explicit in the work of folklorists, relating that work to anthropological and other writing on Ireland. IRST 482 Archeology of Ireland This course examines the cultural and historical trajectory of the archaeology of Ireland through a series of richly illustrated lectures, organized chronologically, that trace cultural, social, and technological developments from the Neolithic through Viking periods. Integrated with this lecture series, and running concurrently on alternate days, will be a series of seminar and discussion classes focused upon a number of anthropological and archaeological issues related to each of these periods of time.

I liked rap Another problem encountered by Notre Dame campus bands is bassist Jeff McDonnell, who now is the lead when I was a little kid, but when I got to high the stubborn desire by most students to put their studies first. singer for a new band. school I started listening to Zeppelin, Dave When it comes to people such as me, this is typically not an issue. In a band of four or five people, however, getting everyone to agree on a time to rehearse generally ends up being exceptional­ ly difficult; for example, one of my bands, Rex LaDado has not practiced for about a month and we are scheduled to perform at the battle of the bands on north quad Friday evening. The likeli­ hood of a late Thursday night practice is increasing rapidly as time progresses. Furthermore, if the style of your band isn’t all that popular, fill­ ing out the proper instrumentation can be a pain in the neck. There are not too many fans of rockabilly on the campus of Notre Dame, so filling the position of bassist for my band, Updogg, has been, as of yet, fruitless. The same situation has come up in my other band, The Salvation Coast Guard; there simply isn’t a big pool of punk bassists available on this campus. Although, I’d bet if Updogg were a Dave Matthews’ cover band, I would have no problem in that respect. The problems don’t end there. Acquiring all the equipment nec­ essary for a band to perform is unavoidably a very expensive process. Ideally, all the guitars and bass have amps loud enough that they require no additional amplification. Unless your vocalist just happens to be the lead singer of Slayer, it is doubtful that your band will be able to perform with no PA. A capable PA will typically set the average band back at least a thousand dollars; when your daily meal consists of Ramen and Tang, this much money is a pretty tall order. Being in campus bands is a drain of my time, my patience, and my money. My grades have suffered because of it. Would I have it any other way? Not a chance.
