But as St.Jerome's skating and our annual donor reception. Come University alumni, we can resist the dullness of out and join your fellow alumni in fellowship as winter by getting together and taking part in the snow begins to fall. some ofthe many events that the Alumni Association and other SJU-affiliated groups have planned for the coming months. As you may know, the St.Jerome's Alumni Association (previously known as the St. Jerome's Graduates' Association) works to provide social and educational opportunities for SJU alumni. Over the past few months, alumni have gotten together at a number ofevents, reconnecting with old friends and making new ones. In August, the association hosted our first annual golf tournament (see page 11 for details). More recently, after Sunday mass in September, SJU alumni celebrated the inauguration ofAlumni Court, a landscaped courtyard nestled between Sweeney Hall and the Letson Community Centre. Alumni Court was designed to honour our many graduates. I invite you to come and visit this space that celebrates the connection that alumni have with the St. Jerome's campus. t PI)All On the Road to India Elyse Redden, the Outreach Co­ ordinator for Beyond Borders, travelled to India in late September for a month-long stay. She spent most of her time in Tamil Nadu, in the south. Her main goal was to investigate and document several possible Beyond Borders placement sites, including an orphanage for children whose parents have died of Hansen's disease (leprosy), a women's education project, and development projects in the tsunami zone. She took two weeks' leave to work in the orphanage herself. This trip reflects Elyse's change in position at St.Jerome's University. She will now spend more time working with Beyond Borders, Beyond the Classroom, Beyond U, Lectures in Catholic Experience, and projects through World University Service of Canada, such as the Student Refugee Program. Through all these programs, she will encourage and support service learning at St. Jerome's. For 2009, St.Jerome's University, University in 2005, which included in conjunction with The Walter a 20-year maintenance plan, Fedy Partnership, tendered a confirmed the weak infrastructure complete electrical rewire ofboth and proposed a schedule the Sweeney and Finn residences ofpriorities. and panel upgrades for the Engineering began in the fall classroom and administration of2008; scope and budgeting building. parameters to address current and The facility's construction dates future needs were set.

An audit on time. conunissioned by St.Jerome's II 0 Beyond Borders Becoming a "Hom_e-grown'' Beyond Borders is changing for the better! In past years, this international educational and service program, designed for St.Jerome's University students who want to help create a more just world, has relied on external placement partners, such as Intercordia Canada and World University Service of Canada (WUSC). In some cases, these placements did not provide adequate support and meaningful work for our students. Also, we were not able to build a lasting relationship with the placement sites. As a result, we became something of a consumer of experiences in the developing world, an approach that flies in the face ofthe social justice and solidarity values we teach in the program. To remedy this situation, Prof.Joanne Benham Rennick, the new director ofBeyond Borders, is working hard to make the program a uniquely SJU experience. Supported by Outreach Co-ordinator Elyse Redden, Prof. Benham Rennick is creating well-researched, sustainable partnerships with grassroots development organizations around the world. In May 2009, she connected with three groups in Peru: a house-building project, an outreach program for girls and women exploited by the sex trade, and a teaching centre for children with disabilities. That same month, SJU President David Perrin visited a number ofpossible placement sites in Uganda. In September, Elyse assessed multiple sites in south India (see sidebar). In October, the director of Ukraine placements, Dr. 0. Huzar, visited St.Jerome's; together we planned for more collaboration with Ukraine and with King's College, University ofWestern Ontario.

  • Sexism and Sexual Assault in Literary Communities Editors’ Statement
    Sexism and Sexual Assault in Literary Communities EDITORS’ STATEMENT Beginning in August of last year, the Alternative Literature (or Alt-Lit) communities in Brooklyn and the Bay Area were convulsed first by pro- vocative instances of sexist and misogynistic writing from prominent male figures and then, more alarmingly, by allegations of sexual assault from women writers in these communities. Amid a much broader public reckoning in the US with a culture of rampant harassment and assault extending from university campuses to the halls of the Senate, harrowing reports of serial sexual assault in late summer identified San Francisco writer Steven Trull (aka Janey Smith) and Brooklyn editor Stephen Tully Dierks as alleged perpetrators. At first these reports of assault circulated on the same blogs and social-media sites where the identity of Alt-Lit had coalesced as a movement of young, tech-savvy writers trading on the idioms and the mechanics of internet culture. The allegations against Smith were galvanized by the publication of his book We’ re Fucked, coauthored with Alt-Lit writer “peterbd, ” which in turn had issued from a docu- ment that Smith published a year earlier on the blog HTMLGiant, “Fuck List: A List of Writers I Want to Fuck (Or Get Fucked By), ” widely denounced for its misogynistic rhetoric. In August, a group of writers in the Bay Area published an anonymous letter that included Smith in a short list of assault perpetrators in the area’ s various writing communities, and soon after, the Toronto-based writer Sophia Katz published an account of her alleged assault at the hands of Dierks while she spent a weekend networking in Brooklyn’ s Alt-Lit scene.

    Foundations for Success in the Minneapolis Public Schools: Report of the Strategic Support Teams of the Council of the Great City Schools Submitted to the Minneapolis Public Schools By the Council of the Great City Schools With support from The Broad Foundation December 2004 Foundations for Success in the Minneapolis Public Schools Acknowledgments The Council of the Great City Schools thanks the many individuals who contributed to this project. Their efforts and commitment were critical to our efforts to present the district with the best possible proposals. First, we thank Superintendent Thandiwe Peebles. It is not easy to ask one’s colleagues for the kind of review conducted by this project. It takes courage and openness. It also requires a commitment to the city’s children that is uncompromising. She has that in abundance. Second, we thank the Board of Education of the Minneapolis Public Schools for their leadership. Each board member was available to us as we conducted this critical review and remained open-minded and committed throughout the process. Third, we thank the Minneapolis Public Schools staff who provided all the time, documents, and data that the project needed in order to do its work. Their openness and enthusiasm were critical to our understanding of the challenges that Minneapolis faces. Fourth, the Council of the Great City Schools thanks the many groups, organizations, and associations with which we met. We apologize that we were unable to meet with everyone who we know had something valuable to say. Fifth, the Council thanks the school districts that contributed staff to this effort.
