The project area consists of the five counties of DeWitt, Livingston, Logan, McLean, and Woodford. It encompasses 184 schools in 66 school systems employing approximately 2800 teachers and en- rolling over 50,000 pupils. The general population of the project area is in excess of 200,000 and is largely rural in nature although including the Bloomington-Normal urban center and the other four smaller county seat cities and towns, together with numerous smaller communities serving their respective rural environs. The program, which is primarily concerned with educational activities in the subject fields of art, drama, and music, continues to grow in coverage, effectiveness and public acceptance. Today it reaches more students and teachers; provides higher quality experiences and services; and commands more respect and prestige than at any time since its inception. Its Executive Committee, Director, Staff, and Consultants function efficiently as a team in cooperation with the State Office of Superimtendent of Public Instruction and the city, town and rural residents of the area. This project embodiesa sensitivity to local needs andan urgence toward relevance which enables it to penetratethe walls of isolation traditionally existing in thisgeographic area between fine arts programs and the schools and communities. Children and teachers are privileged to talk with artists and watch them work. They par- ticipate in creative expression through thevisual and performing, arts. They examine and experience the artsof various cultures and are guided to relate these to their daily lives and theworld around them. Their other studies are enriched andmade more meaningful through expanding perceptions of thearts in modern society. PART B - Purposes and Objectives Within the broad, general purposes of(a) helping elementary and secondary pupils in the project area tobetter understand, appreciate and take part in the fine arts,(b) helping teachers and administra- tors to improve the quality andextend the scope of their fine arts offerings, and (c) increasingthe public awareness of educational needs and opportunities forbetter living through challengingand re- warding experiences in the arts, theproject recognizes these major objectives: (1) To provide enough live performancesin enough places so that every child will haveopportunities for first-handexperiences with quality concerts, plays, andart exhibits or demonstra- tions. (2) To provide a wide variety of inservicetraining experiences for teachers to increase theirteaching effectiveness inthe fine arts. (3) To provide several model or exemplaryofferings in the form of pilot, programs, to demonstrate someunique and promising approaches to fine arts education. (4) To provide needed information, materialsand services to the project area schools throughthe establishment and operation of a central Fine Arts ServiceCenter, with an able staff and adequate resources. These overall objectives serve togive the project a sense of direction and balance, but mustbe detailed in terms ofspecific operational objectives in order toinsure project responsivenessto changing needs and to provide asubstantial, comprehensive base for evaluation. For purposes of illustration, wecite here the more spe-_ cificlobjectives in one of the project'sthree main subject fields-- ART: 1. "LivePerformances" (a) To provide as manyschools as possible with demonstrations (ceramics, weaving,drawing, etc.) by traveling artists, sothat children, teachers, and parents might become moreaware of the values and usefulness of suchart in the lives andedu- cational experiences ofchildren and youth. The stimulation of some degreeof personal interest in art through first-hand"exposure" to the per- sonality and creative talentsof a professional artist in action, constitutes aspecific program objective. (b) To establish cooperativeSaturday High School Art Centers and

Conflict, Postconflict, and the Functions of Higher Education: Lessons from Colombia and other Armed Conflicts Dissertation by: Iván Francisco Pacheco Dissertation Director: Philip G. Altbach Abstract “Education and conflict” has emerged as a new field of study during the last two decades. However, higher education is still relatively absent from this debate as most of the research has focused on primary and non-formal education. This dissertation is an exploratory qualitative study on the potential role of higher education in peacebuilding processes. The conceptual framework for the study is a taxonomy of the functions of higher education designed by the author. The questions guiding the dissertation are: 1) What can we learn about the role of higher education in conflict and postconflict from the experience of countries that have suffered internal conflicts in the last century? 2) How are universities in Colombia affected by the ongoing armed conflict in the country? 3) How can Colombian higher education contribute to build sustainable peace in the country? ! ! First, based on secondary sources, the dissertation explores seven armed conflicts that took place during the twentieth century.

Glaciers are our most visible evidence of climatic changes, and they often remind me of our collective vulnerability on this blue blue planet.” Jackson’s doctoral research at the University of Oregon centers on understanding how glaciers matter to people on the south coast of Iceland, and what it is that humanity stands to lose as the planet’s glaciers disappear. “It is critical that we understand how today’s rapidly changing glaciated environments impact surrounding communities, which requires extensive, long-term fieldwork in remote places. I am grateful that Fulbright has continually supported me in this work, from my first Fulbright grant in Turkey, where I taught at Ondokuz Mayis University and researched glaciers and people in the Kaçkar Mountains, to my current research in Iceland. Without Fulbright, I would not be able to do Photo by Eli Weiss this research.” (Photo by Eric Kruszewski) 16-22186 FFSB-report-2015_PRINTcover.indd 3 09/09/2016 7:45 AM (From left) U.S. Assistant Secretary of State for Educational and Cultural Affairs Evan Ryan, National Science Foundation Arctic Science Section Head Eric Saltzman, Iceland Fulbright Commission Executive Director Belin- da Theriault, and Iceland‘s Ambassa- dor to the United States Geir Haarde at the signing of the Fulbright-Nation- al Science Foundation agreement on January 21, 2015, for a groundbreak- ing partnership to fund grants for U.S.
