Creative expression and research with faculty members have become integral parts of a student’s educational experience at New York Institute of Technology. The SOURCE is intended to provide a unique opportunity for students to present their research and creative scholarly work in collaboration with their faculty members and mentors. The SOURCE also generates a common ground for interdepartmental, interschool, and interdisciplinary communication. I am very pleased to inform you that 88 abstracts were accepted for presentation and more than 250 undergraduate and graduate students of NYIT, representing all campuses, schools and colleges, have authored or co-authored these abstracts. The depth and breadth of the projects are strong indications of the quality of our teaching and learning at NYIT. I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate all the students for their academic excellence at NYIT. Many individuals in the NYIT community have worked on the event diligently to make it a success.

With me as always, the judge himself, Judge John Hodgman. We're gonna go into the courtroom in just a second, but first, this is week two of the MaxFunDrive. 00:00:16 John Promo Yeah, thank you so much for making week one so great! I mean, Hodgman look, we wanted to keep this, you know, MaxFun, but MinDrive, because it's such a strange time. But everyone in their own low-key and wonderful and supportive way, just all the shout-outs on Twitter, all the fun times we had together on the pub quiz, frankly it's been just a wonderful distraction for me. And obviously a huuuge boon to Maximum Fun. Because, you know, without MaxFun, without its members, we couldn't keep doing this show! This time or any time. Maximum Fun is audience supported, which means we're free to make the content you enjoy because people like you become members and contribute. 00:00:56 Jesse Promo We'll talk more about the MaxFunDrive later on in the show. But you can become a member now at MaximumFun.org/join. That's MaximumFun.org/join.

    Battlestar Galactica LARP RULES Setup: GM Setup: ● Place the indicated number of Cylon Crises into a bag and label it Cylon Crises. ● Place the indicated number of Crises into a bag and label it Bad News. ● Get some timers. ● Determine the locations to be used for the main locations of the game. You’ll need: ○ The Galactica: This is the Humans’ main base of operations, so it should be relatively central and probably private. Get some poor soul to volunteer their apartment or house for the day. Hide a small tennis ball somewhere here to be used as the bomb in the Bomb Threat Crisis. ○ The Baseship: This is the Cylons’ main base. The Cylons don’t have as much to do on their base as the Humans do, so it can be smaller than the Galactica. This location should be somewhat close to the Galactica (no more than 2 miles away) and able to have multiple cars parked in front of it. A park or someone’s house works well. ○ Caprica: This is where the game actually starts. It should be a large, open stretch of land with some brush and only a smattering of options for taking cover. This place will also have to be okay with people running and shooting NERF guns. ○ Kobol: This needs to be medium sized, open area that is peachy with people shouting and running around with Bright yellow foam guns. There should also be a decent number of places to hide a baseball sized object and take cover behind. Go ahead and hide that baseball sized object here.

  • TEEN FEMINIST KILLJOYS? Mapping Girls' Affective Encounters With
    Á 6 TEEN FEMINIST KILLJOYS? Mapping Girls’ Aff ective Encounters with Femininity, Sexuality, and Feminism at School Jessica Ringrose and Emma Renold International research has documented the phenomenon of contem- porary young women repudiating or disinvesting from identifi cations with feminism (Jowett 2004: 99; Baker 2008; Scharff 2012). Indeed, femi- nism is frequently constituted as both abject and obsolete by a postfem- inist media context that suggests women are now equal in education, the workplace, and the home (McRobbie 2008; Ringrose and Renold 2010). Most of the scholarship on the relationship between new fem- ininities (Gill and Scharff 2011) and diff erent forms of feminism or postfeminism (Budgeon 2011), does not, however, explicitly deal with adolescence and teen girls’ relationships to feminism, although there is some writing on how the girl and associations with girlishness have historically been set in contradiction to a feminist identity, and the need to overcome this and take girls’ political subjectivities seriously (Baumgardner and Richards 2004; Eisenhauer 2004). One particularly promising area is a growing literature exploring girls’ political, activist, or counter-cultural subjectivities, via girls’ on- line identity formation (Weber and Mitchell 2008; Currie et al. 2009) through new media practices such as blogging, zines, and digital social networking (Piepmeier, 2009; Zaslow 2009; Ringrose 2011; Keller 2012; see also Keller’s contribution to this volume, among others). However, there is still a limited amount of research that focuses on teenage girls explicitly taking up feminist activist identities and practices. Indeed, much research, including our own, has focused on what Currie et al. call “de facto feminism” (2008: 39) that is, discursive traces of feminist ideology or resistance in the talk and experiences of teen girls, even if they do not explicitly identify with or defi ne themselves as feminist (Renold and Ringrose 2008, 2011).
