That means, for example, that a single in RHO that costs $3,922 this semester will increase to $4,200 per semester in the fall, $4,490 per semester in fall 2018 and $4,680 in fall 2019 – or a cumulative annual growth rate of 6 percent.

PETERSBURG, FL INDY ELEVEN HEAD COACH MARTIN RENNIE On the importance of tonight’s result … “I think it was a good result and an important point from a difficult game on the road, putting us in a good position going into Wednesday. It means that the top four is within our own hands, giving us a chance to get us a home playoff game provided we do well in the finale this week, so it was a good result overall.” On the play that led to Tampa Bay’s first half goal … “I think that was a big moment. Five minutes of stoppage time was too much for one injury, and it was really a harsh, harsh call on the penalty. We were really looking to be in a solid position going into the half at nil-nil, and we knew we could bring on players like [Tyler] Pasher, [Matt] Watson and others in the second half to give us a chance to get going. In the end we still managed to do that, but that meant it ended up in a tie rather than the win we were looking for.” On the team’s defensive display on the road … “I think we show a lot of effort and a lot of character. Sometimes on the road we’ve been a little too open and too expansive, but tonight we were more solid and stayed in the game and that allowed us to fight back.

Jones ABSTRACT Recent decades have seen a shift in the focus of civil rights historiography. Building upon the exhaustive studies of national figures and events, and in search of new perspectives, many historians have concentrated on local movements often ignored or forgotten. Other than the work of a few local scholars, the civil rights movement as it occurred in St. Petersburg, Florida, has received little attention. Furthermore, the limited scholarship lacks the cohesion necessary to compare and contrast the movement with similar events throughout the state and across the nation. The story of St. Petersburg‟s active and significant struggle for social equality, placed within its proper context, adds another piece to a larger picture and continues to reveal the complex nature of the American Civil Rights Movement.

  • Baseball's Bisexuality
    Adrienne Harris, Ph.D. BaSeBall’S BISexualIty1 Abstract: In this essay I explore the function of sports in general and baseball in particular as a powerful element in the social construction and maintenance of masculinity within American culture. Sport’s function as an element in ideology is explored. I suggest that some of the key elements in baseball as a mass-audience sport make masculinity a complex and ultimately unstable construction through the medium and media production of baseball. I explore baseball’s relation to time and to language as aspects of complex gender assembly. Keywords: ideology, time, masculinity, social construction, narrative, bisexuality. HIS ESSAY IS PART PSYCHOANALYSIS, part social theory, part femi- Tnism, and part autobiography. It is an attempt to look, very locally, at the production and interpenetration of gender in cultural and intrapsy- chic life, specifically, in the experience of watching and following base- ball. To write this paper, I had to remember and think about a lot of my history, but also about the history of how sports function in and comment on social life and culture. At this point, 20 years after I began to work on this project, how I think about “Women, Baseball, and Words,” (my origi- nal title) is the outcome of my history with psychoanalytic feminism, and with gender studies, and gender theory. But this essay is also an outcome of my history as a daughter, as a wife, as a buddy, and most recently as a grandmother, somehow always someone rooted and vitalized in the intense pleasures of baseball. Only recently have I had a psychoanalytic 1 An early version of this paper, “Woman, Baseball and Words,” was published in Psychcri- tique, 1985, and reprinted in the Norton Guide to Literature, 1988.

  • The Benefits and Limitations of Artist-Run Organizations in Columbus, Ohio
    THE BENEFITS AND LIMITATIONS OF ARTIST-RUN ORGANIZATIONS IN COLUMBUS, OHIO A Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Masters of Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Melissa Ann Keeley, B.A. The Ohio State University 2008 Masters Examination Committee: Approved by: Dr. Wayne Lawson, Adviser Dr. Margaret J. Wyszomirski ____________________________________ Adviser Graduate Program in Arts Policy & Administration Copyright by Melissa Ann Keeley 2008 ABSTRACT The creative sector of any community provides important economic and social benefits. Research has shown that supporting a thriving arts and culture sector provides not only monetary returns on public investment but also helps create a positive image of a city that is in turn attractive to new businesses and a talented workforce. Furthermore, researchers have found that the presence of artists within a city is a good judge of a community’s cultural vitality and that cities should look to attract and retain artists to create new and innovative arts experiences while enhancing and building the creative capital within the community. However, attracting and retaining artists is not always easy. Artists are highly mobile and frequently leave “second tier” cities to move to the premier art cities of New York and Los Angeles. In order to attract and retain artists to a community like Columbus, Ohio the city needs to support organizations and groups that help develop a hospitable environment for artists. A hospitable environment includes access to studio space and equipment, peer support, ability to gain exposure and exhibit work, and also a high quality of life at a reasonable cost.

The 24-year-old Bulgarian is 26th in the Emirates ATP Rankings, the lowest he’s been since he entered the 2013 If Stockholm Open at No. 28. Dimitrov went on to defeat World No. 3 David Ferrer for the title, then repeated his run to the championship match in 2014 (l. to No. 7 Tomas Berdych). Just 11-11 since May 7, Dimitrov has yet to reach an ATP World Tour final this season. He opens his campaign against former junior rival Filip Krajinovic in the last match on Tuesday’s schedule. The winner of Dimitrov vs. Krajinovic will face either Finnish wild card Jarkko Nieminen or Daniel Muñoz-de la Nava, who also meet on Tuesday. With Mikael Ymer’s loss on Monday, Nieminen is the lone Scandinavian player left in what happens to be the last tournament of his career. The 34- year-old left-hander is retiring at the conclusion of the If Stockholm Open, where he reached the singles final in 2001, 2006 and 2011, as well as the doubles final with Johan Brunström of Sweden in 2010.
