  • At the Tim and Steph Busch School of Business and Economics, A
    t 8:10 on a cold January morning — the second day of the spring semester — about 30 freshmen file into room 200 in McMahon Hall. Fresh from winter break, some are moving slowly as they adjust to the earlyA hour. Their professor, Andreas Widmer, director of the Ciocca Center for Principled Entrepreneurship at the Tim and Steph Busch School of Business and Economics, is handing out In the pre-printed name cards. He wants to be able to call on each student by name. He’s got some “housekeeping” to get out of the way. Attendance. Grading. Office hours. Weekly reading and quizzes. No sitting in the back row. He motions to three young men who grab their backpacks and reluctantly find places up front. About 20 minutes into class, with his checklist complete, Widmer pulls a compass out of his pocket. “This compass saved Business my life,” he says. With those five words, the students lean in with a new focus. In riveting detail, Widmer tells the story of being an 18-year- old — blindfolded in the middle of the night, thrown in the back of a truck, and dropped off in the mountains of Switzerland with only that compass and a map. As part of his training for the Swiss Army, he had one week to get from point A to point B of Human without getting “caught.” The map provided his end point, but didn’t tell him where he was. That’s where the compass came in. The professor walks around the room allowing students to find north on the compass.

SYNOPSE Pro sériového vraha Jacka je každé zabití uměleckým dílem. Své temné mistrovství se snaží během let vybrousit k dokonalosti. I přes jeho vysokou inteligenci se policie pomalu přibližuje, zatímco Jack víc a víc riskuje na cestě k dokonalé vraždě. Ponurý, chytrý i groteskně humorný snímek nás zavádí do USA 70. let. V hlavních rolích se objeví Matt Dillon a Bruno Ganz, ve filmu účinkují také Uma Thurman či Riley Keough. Kontroverzní génius Lars von Trier jej poprvé představil na festivalu v Cannes. PROČ TENTO FILM „Dalo by se napsat třeba „Protože Lars von Trier je génius, který posouvá hranice kinematografie a točí filmy, které by nikdo jiný natočit nedokázal,“ a asi by to jako důvod stačilo. Přidám ale ještě osobní zážitek ze světové premiéry v Cannes. Nedaleko nás seděl jedinec, který se smál a reagoval na scény tak nahlas, až trošku rušil okolí. Vyklubala se z něj známá firma a další zlobivý chlapík evropského filmu, Gaspar Noé. Docela jsem mu rozuměl – od filmu jsem čekal leccos, nejvíc mě ale překvapilo právě to, jak je zábavný (že je hodně chytrý, to asi žádné překvápko není).

This planning document --- the result of great effort on the part of many --- presents the foundation for our anticipated, continued enhancement of The Catholic University of America campus environment. The Catholic University of America was established in 1887 by the Catholic Church in the United States as a graduate research center, modeled after the great European universities of the nineteenth century.

Today our institutional mission extends to graduate and professional studies, as well as our fully integrated undergraduate program. Our community of research, teaching, and learning exists to serve the Church, the Washington metropolitan area, the nation, and the world. During the past fourteen months the University has developed a Strategic Plan to implement its vision for the future. Our Strategic Plan sets forth over 200 specific actions to assist in achieving the University’s four goals, which seek to 1) promote the distinctive Catholic culture of the University; 2) strengthen academic excellence; 3) enhance the student collegiate experience; and, 4) improve the experience of work. Our Campus Master Plan, developed in tandem with our Strategic Plan, addresses improvements to our facilities and landscape to support these goals.
