  • Boston Is Made up of a Number of Different Neighborhoods, Each with Its Own Unique Feel
    Neighborhoods Boston is made up of a number of different neighborhoods, each with its own unique feel. Where you choose to live is entirely up to you and we strongly encourage students to visit and tour areas before signing a lease. The following list contains brief descriptions of the major neighborhoods in Boston as well as areas that Suffolk University students typically live in. Allston/Brighton/Brookline Located west of downtown Boston, this area is very popular with students, as it has a great commute into Boston’s university districts. Rents are generally not as expensive as in the Back Bay or Beacon Hill areas and apartments are generally larger. There are also many nightclubs, restaurants, and specialty food stores. These neighborhoods contain many beautiful homes that have been converted to rental space. The commute into Boston is made easy by trolley and bus routes that run very consistently. These neighborhoods are a great alternative to the hectic downtown lifestyle. Back Bay/Fenway http://www.cityofboston.gov/ Back Bay is located right in the middle of downtown Boston, and is home to the famed Newbury Street, Kenmore Square, and the Fenway area. There is a very diverse population of business people, artists & musicians, and college students. It is the home of two great art museums, the Boston Conservatory, and Fenway Park. In this trendy area, rents are generally expensive, but the commute is short. Trolley stops are located on just about every corner, but on a sunny day you can walk from most areas. Beacon Hill http://www.cityofboston.gov/ Suffolk University is located on Beacon Hill, a small section of Boston.

  • A Critical Analysis of the Black President in Film and Television
    “WELL, IT IS BECAUSE HE’S BLACK”: A CRITICAL ANALYSIS OF THE BLACK PRESIDENT IN FILM AND TELEVISION Phillip Lamarr Cunningham A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY August 2011 Committee: Dr. Angela M. Nelson, Advisor Dr. Ashutosh Sohoni Graduate Faculty Representative Dr. Michael Butterworth Dr. Susana Peña Dr. Maisha Wester © 2011 Phillip Lamarr Cunningham All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Angela Nelson, Ph.D., Advisor With the election of the United States’ first black president Barack Obama, scholars have begun to examine the myriad of ways Obama has been represented in popular culture. However, before Obama’s election, a black American president had already appeared in popular culture, especially in comedic and sci-fi/disaster films and television series. Thus far, scholars have tread lightly on fictional black presidents in popular culture; however, those who have tend to suggest that these presidents—and the apparent unimportance of their race in these films—are evidence of the post-racial nature of these texts. However, this dissertation argues the contrary. This study’s contention is that, though the black president appears in films and televisions series in which his presidency is presented as evidence of a post-racial America, he actually fails to transcend race. Instead, these black cinematic presidents reaffirm race’s primacy in American culture through consistent portrayals and continued involvement in comedies and disasters. In order to support these assertions, this study first constructs a critical history of the fears of a black presidency, tracing those fears from this nation’s formative years to the present.
