By then Mann had already established a reputation as an innovator in curriculum development at the University of Missouri-St. Louis and a federally-funded educational laboratory known as CEMREL. Though her work up to that At the end of the day, point had been mostly with schools and cultural institutions Mann told Cervantes, throughout the St. Louis area, Cervantes thought Mann might have some ideas for program improvements for older adults. “We can do better for older adults.” Mann spent a day in church basements visiting with older adults as they made crafts, played bingo and sat idly around the rooms. Although the centers were meeting important basic needs, Mann saw a world of potential going to waste. Why should the people in these centers, who had raised families and held productive jobs, have such limited opportunities as they aged? At the end of the day, Mann told Cervantes, “We can do better for older adults.” Mann spent many more days in senior centers, talking with older adults and center directors.

  • MIT Admissions Spoof Webpage
    About MIT When I attended the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), it was the greatest technology university in the world, of all time, particularly in Information Technology (IT), which includes cybersecurity. Now it has been taken over by those who don't care about its technological greatness, many non­MIT alum, and only want to use it to forward their leftist liberal political agenda. An organization is only as good, or as bad, as those who lead it, so let's meet some of MIT's leaders. Along the way, why this is the MIT Admissions page will be explained. Leo Rafael Reif, MIT President In the late 1930's Reif's parents, Eastern European Jews, fled the Nazis to Venezuela. Reif is not an MIT alum. He was educated in the third­rate education system of Venezuela and in California, both where he was heavily indoctrinated into leftist ideology. While nothing could force him to return to the hellhole that is Venezuela, he still embraces the leftist ideology of Venezuela's destroyer Hugo Chavez. After I was at MIT, it decided to pick its president based only on a penis and pigmentation check and picked non­MIT­alum Susan Hockfield to meet this new­found singular agenda of diversity. After she resigned (and Reif knows why), next on the diversity checklist was an African­American or Hispanic. Reif didn't think he could pass for African­American so, borrowing a scam from non­Native American Elizabeth Warren, he pretended to be Hispanic and became MIT President. (I took high school Spanish but that doesn't make me Hispanic.) Too bad for all those real African­American and Hispanic MIT alum.

Scott can be reached at: [email protected] Pre-Publication Review Copy 2 (c) 2012 Scott White This book is dedicated to Eve, Kira, Zachary and Benjamin. They are the lights of my life. Pre-Publication Review Copy 3 (c) 2012 Scott White Dear reader, This is NOT the book I really want to write. This book is called Don’t Do Anything That Can Kill You – Yet Another College Guide, I want to write Don’t Do Anything That Can Kill You – NOT Another College Guide. The world does not need another college guide; there are too many already. Please read this letter before the book because I want to tell you what this book is, why it is the way it is, what I hope to develop instead, and how you can help make that happen. The first half of this book contains essays that present my perspective on the college application process, and suggests attitudes you might adopt too. The second half contains a collection of reference materials that I hand out to students and their parents. I think all of it is useful although some of it is out-of-date. I am not sure I’d want to include this in the book I really want to write because it can be found elsewhere. It is in this edition because that way I can just give this book to my students rather than a loose collection of articles.

Comprised of the city’s third and fifth wards, the Hill is located on the upward sloping eastern border of downtown that, in the first half of the twentieth century, fostered a thriving social life marked by the intersection of music, entrepreneurship, and a shifting demographic landscape. The scope of this study includes the decades between WWI and the 1968 riots sparked by the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King—a period that encapsulates the emergence of jazz as an American cultural practice and the development of the urban African American neighborhood.

  • The Best of Times
    THE 1940s The Best of Times By Larry Glasco, University of Pittsburgh For black Pittsburghers, it was the best of times, or at least the best it had been until that time. It was a time when industries, without government prodding, posted job openings in the Pittsburgh Courier for skilled, semiskilled, and unskilled workers. A time when African Americans flocked to the region to secure some of those jobs. A time when newly opened, racially integrated housing projects thrilled local residents with their amenities. A time when flourishing businesses stayed open, sometimes all night, and dance halls brought in local as well as national bands. A time when the “Double V” campaign made fighting racism a patriotic act, and when churches, synagogues, radio stations, and schools sponsored campaigns for interracial and religious tolerance. And a time when picketing and marching forced downtown department stores to integrate their sales force. 82 WESTERN PENNSYLVANIA HISTORY | SPRING 2015 African American workers were among the skilled employees who fabricated armor plate for Sherman tanks at Carnegie-Illinois Steel’s Farrell Ordnance Plant in Farrell, Pennsylvania, near Sharon in Mercer County.
