A description of the environmental problems of the San Francisco Bay Area and of the many news media which serve this area introduces this second volume of the study. The dimensions of the information explosion in the Bay Area news media are documented in quantitative terms. The study identifies the groups in the Bay Area which can be expected to use the information offered by the news media and the implications of this for the press. The difficulties for the press in reporting environmental deterioration and the damage caused by "environmental" advertising are pointed out. The study also examined: the difficulties of gaining access to information about the plans of public utilities; the interrelationship of a growing community and its newspapers and the possible effects of newspaper coverage of urban land use patterns; and the possibilities of getting along without the news media and becoming informed on one's own. The study concludes that the media have alerted the public to environmental hazards, but that continued efforts topinpointlocal problems will be necessary.

  • Winter 2013 Community Report.Pdf
    Season’s Greetings, I am delighted to present the Winter 2013 edition of the Penn State Schuylkill Community Report. As we near the end of 2013, we take note of the many wonderful achievements of our faculty, staff, alumni, students, and friends of the campus. We have collectively made great strides as an institution, and look forward to the promise of what lies ahead in 2014—the year of our 80th anniversary. Central to the success of our campus is the dedication and commitment of our talented faculty to the students in their pursuit of knowledge. We are extremely fortunate to have faculty that have changed the world through their research and creative accomplishments. Our campus is deeply committed to academic excellence, as illustrated through the revitalization of the Penn State Schuylkill Honors Program under the leadership of co- coordinators, Drs. Charles Cantalupo, Darcy Medica, and S. Hakan Can. On November 3rd, twenty-one Honors students and twenty Honors faculty joined together for a reception in the R. Michael Fryer Conference Center. The Penn State Schuylkill Honors Program offers students the opportunity to enrich their education by taking honors courses, working closely with faculty on special projects, and participating in honors-related extracurricular activities and service projects. At the Honors Program kickoff event, Dr. Cantalupo unveiled an artistic representation of some of his most transformative works, which he has gifted to the campus. We continue to improve the facilities and infrastructure of the campus in support of a high- quality educational environment and aesthetically appealing campus. Improvements were completed on a new courtyard and landscaping along the west side of the Classroom building, and a new walkway and landscaping on the west side of the Student Community Center.

  • Senior Thesis Weekend I Program
    The Theatre department of Barnard College cultivates independent artistic vision pursued by professional and emerging theatre artists. We also recognize that, in the educational environment of the college and the university, artistic work both participates in the curriculum and is part of a wider community conversation as well. Some productions included in our seasons may contain scenes staging verbal, physical, or sexual violence. If a specific content warning is warranted, it will be posted on the ticketing website, posted outside the performance space, and/or printed in the program. If you are concerned about whether or how any action or content might be depicted in any of our shows, please contact [email protected]. Show-specific content advisories: What Every Girl Should Know Content warning: this play references sexual violence. The Penelopiad Content warning: descriptions of gendered and sexual violence. CloudMelt Content warning: suicidal ideation/preparation, delusions, age–inappropriate intimacy, and mourning. Barnard College and Columbia University are located in Lenapehoking, the territory of the Lenape people. In the public acknowledgement of this fact we enact one small step towards recognizing the traditional and enduring stewards of this land and disrupt the invisibility and ongoing erasure of Indigenous Peoples. Furthermore, the practices central to much of the art we make contribute to climate change in ways that disproportionately affect Indigenous and marginalized people globally. The faculty and staff of the Department of Theatre invite you to join us in acknowledging all of this as well as our shared responsibility--by learning more about the Native American Council of Columbia University and Barnard College’s local work towards Indigenous sovereignty and Black liberation, as well as the Department’s continued efforts towards developing sustainable design and production practices.
