Beyond the Final Frontier: Star Trek, the Borg and the Post-Colonial
Beyond the Final Frontier: Star Trek, the Borg and the Post-colonial Lynette Russell and Nathan Wolski Over the last three decades, Star Trek has become, to use Bernardi's term, a "mega-text" (1998: 11). Star Trek's mega-text consists of much more than the various studio-produced television series and films - it also includes (among other things) novels, Internet chat groups, conventions and fanzines. That Star Trek's premise of space exploration is a thinly disguised metaphor for colonialism has been extensively analysed (see Bernardi, 1998; Hastie, 1996; Ono 1996; Richards, 1997). Boyd describes the utopian future presented in Star Trek the Next Generation (STNG) as based on "nineteenth-century essentialist definitions of human nature, building ... on faith in perfection, progress, social evolution, and free will" (1996: 96-97). Exploration, colonisation and assimilation are never far from the surface of the STNG text. Less apparent, however, are aspects of the series which challenge the hegemonic view of this narrative and which present a post-colonial critique. In this paper we will explore a range of post-colonial moments and an emerging self reflexivity in the second generation series, focusing on those episodes of Star Trek: the Next Generation (STNG) and Star Trek: Voyager which feature an alien race known as the Borg. Others in space Much has been written about the role of the alien in science fiction as a means of exploring issues of otherness. As Wolmark notes: "Science fiction provides a rich source of metaphors for the depiction of otherness and the 'alien' is one of the most familiar: it enables difference to be constructed in terms of binary oppositions which reinforce relations of domination and subordination" (1994: 2). -

Infinite Diversity in Infinite Combinations: Portraits of Individuals with Disabilities in Star Trek
Infinite Diversity in Infinite Combinations: Portraits of Individuals With Disabilities in Star Trek Terry L.

This work is licensed to the public under the Creative Commons Attribution License. Infinite Diversity in Infinite Combinations: Portraits of Individuals With Disabilities in Star Trek Terry L. Shepherd Abstract Weekly television series have more influence on American society than any other form of media, and with many of these series available on DVDs, television series are readily ac- cessible to most consumers. Studying television series provides a unique perspective on society’s view of individuals with disabilities and influences how teachers and peers view students with disabilities. Special education teachers can use select episodes to differenti- ate between the fact and fiction of portrayed individuals with disabilities with their stu- dents, and discuss acceptance of peers with disabilities. With its philosophy of infinite diversity in infinite combinations, Star Trek has portrayed a number of persons with dis- abilities over the last forty years. Examples of select episodes and implications for special education teachers for using Star Trek for instructional purposes through guided viewing are discussed.

Faculty of Arts & Sciences April 01, 2014, 3:30 – 5:00 pm Tidewater A, Sadler Center Dean Kate Conley called the meeting to order at 3:37 p.m. Attendance at the start of the meeting: 32 (no quorum, so we can hear reports but we cannot vote on anything – everyone loves reports, yes?) I. The minutes from March 11, 2014 were not approved (they were not even raised for discussion) the Secretary does not blame you, especially those of you who actually read her minutes. In the meantime, please note the following corrigenda. The mysterious Mikes were Michael Deschenes (Kinesiology) and – Mike Tierney (Government); further, Liz was not Liz Francis (Biology – not sure where that name came from) but rather Liz(abeth) Allison (Biology), who is in fact the chair, as the Secretary may have noticed had there been less haste (festina lente, as they say), and Herr Professor‐at‐the‐Back‐of‐the‐Room was none other than our very own award‐ winning Professor Paul Mapp. The secretary also regrets the slip of John for Tom Linneman (again, too much haste), with sincere thanks to Debbie Bebout (Chemistry) and John Gilmour (Government) – in alphabetical order – for the corrigenda. Perhaps the minutes, as corrected here, can be approved next time, or not. Soon enough it shall fall to someone else. http://www.wm.edu/as/facultyresources/fas/minutes/index.php II. Report of Administrative Officers: Vice Provost for Academic Affairs Kate Slevin on behalf of Provost Michael Halleran reported the following: her report would be mercifully short. Provost Halleran is currently in Washington – but desired the following to be conveyed: o Richmond is still locking horns over the Medicaid issue, and there is, as of yet, no resolution on the budget.
