    Beauty Pageants in American Society AMST 1906H-S01 Professor Hilary Levey Friedman [email protected] 210 Dyer House (150 Power Street) Office hours are by appointment (or sign up for one of 15 lunches with Prof. Levey Friedman via Doodle) Beauty pageants are often ridiculed, and even vilified, in American society. Yet their cultural power—from “There She Is” to Toddlers & Tiaras to pageant waves—is undeniable. What accounts for the enduring power of beauty pageants? This course draws on inter-disciplinary scholarship across the social sciences and humanities to examine how and why pageantry and American femininity have become linked in the public consciousness. By the end of this course you will be able to use beauty pageants as a lens to carefully examine gender, race, age, and appearance, and apply that critical thinking to other pop culture phenomena. This is a writing designated course, with no prerequisites for Sophomores, Juniors, and Seniors.

  • Vote of No Confidence and a Demand for the Immediate Resignation of the Entire Miss America Board of Trustees and President/Ceo
    VOTE OF NO CONFIDENCE AND A DEMAND FOR THE IMMEDIATE RESIGNATION OF THE ENTIRE MISS AMERICA BOARD OF TRUSTEES AND PRESIDENT/CEO We, the undersigned state licensees of the Miss America Organization (MAO), represent all areas of the United States, decades of leadership, and innumerable contributions to the legacy of the Miss America Organization at every level. As dedicated members of our state and local communities who lend our reputations, financial support, and voluntary efforts to facilitate MAO’s long and powerful mission of empowering women to stand up and speak out, we find ourselves needing to use our own voices of leadership to express our profound disappointment regarding what, in our view, is the failed leadership of the entire MAO Board of Trustees led by Ms. Gretchen Carlson as its Chair and Ms. Regina Hopper as its President and CEO. The recent ouster of two duly elected Trustees, followed by the resignations of two elected Miss Americas from the nine-member Board, have underscored our grave concerns regarding the direction in which MAO is headed, its financial viability, and the expected exercise of all duties attendant to each Trustee as required by law. We were promised transparency, competence, and adherence to best practices and good governance. The current Trustees and identified staff member have both individually and collectively failed to deliver on those promises and commitments. In our opinion their leadership has demonstrated that “Miss America 2.0” is simply a new title for the same old tactics of obfuscation and fear-based governance. THEREFORE, we the undersigned state licensees expressly declare NO CONFIDENCE IN THE ENTIRE BOARD OF TRUSTEES AND THE PRESIDENT/CEO.

  • Testimonials
    Testimonials “I could not have won Miss America without Shea! With nine tap dancers heading to Las Vegas this past January, I knew I needed a competitive edge. Shea's choreography challenged me and captured my personality to a 'T.' I had so much fun in my preparation for Miss America thanks to Shea's kick-butt attitude and no-nonsense approach to making people awesome!” - Mallory Hagan, Miss America 2013 “Working with Shea was one of the most awesome and yet tiring experiences ever! Never have I had a teacher who was able to pinpoint exactly what I needed to take my routine to the next level but also relate to me on a personal level. I appreciate the time she's spent with me because I know no one else could've been so beneficial to me!” -Alicia Clifton, Miss OK and Miss America 2013 2nd Runner-Up and Preliminary Talent winner “ Shea Sullivan’s choreography makes my costumes come alive. ” -Designer Stephen Yearick “ Working with Shea before Miss Connecticut and leading up to Miss America was probably the best decision I made in all my years competing. I had always struggled with something in regards to my talent, but thanks to Shea I feel like my dancing has been brought to a new level. She has challenged me in many ways, and in the process has made me a stronger dancer, and contestant. I've never felt so excited to perform a piece. Shea helped me to keep the integrity of a classical ballet variation, and at the same time to make it even more entertaining and relatable for the Miss America stage.
