Academic Catalog 2010-2011 Academic Catalog 2010-2011 President’s Welcome Joseph L. Subbiondo California Institute of Integral Studies provides an integral education for a changing world, embodying a creative synthesis of global traditions and exploring the interplay of mind, body, and spirit. The Institute is dedicated to creating and integrating knowledge beyond the confines of traditional academic disciplines, and to developing a reflective and innovative learning community. The integral approach is a response to the growing need to synthesize the fragmentary aspects of contemporary thought and culture into a meaningful whole. The integral outlook, envisioned by the founders of CIIS, has grown to encompass the study of traditions and disciplines from around the globe, addressing all aspects of learning: the intellectual, the experiential, and the applied. As a leader in integral education, CIIS is well positioned to meet the needs of a growing student body. In preparing students to work in the areas of psychology, religion, philosophy, social sciences, and the humanities, the Institute’s PhD, PsyD, MA, and BA Completion programs cultivate qualities needed for transformative change in fields of work and in society. As you review the CIIS catalog, you will discover a university that advances its mission by offering courses on the frontier of knowledge, taught by faculty members who are scholars and student-centered teachers. For a spirited and meaningful education that will prepare you to engage in a positive transformation of our communities and our world, I welcome you to explore CIIS.

  • Pioneering Cultural Initiatives by Esalen Centers for Theory
    Esalen’s Half-Century of Pioneering Cultural Initiatives 1962 to 2012 For more information, please contact: Jane Hartford, Director of Development Center for Theory & Research and Special Projects Special Assistant to the Cofounder and Chairman Emeritus Michael Murphy Esalen Institute 1001 Bridgeway #247 Sausalito, CA 94965 415-459-5438 i Preface Most of us know Esalen mainly through public workshops advertised in the catalog. But there is another, usually quieter, Esalen that’s by invitation only: the hundreds of private initiatives sponsored now by Esalen’s Center for Theory and Research (CTR). Though not well publicized, this other Esalen has had a major impact on America and the world at large. From its programs in citizen diplomacy to its pioneering role in holistic health; from physics and philosophy to psychology, education and religion, Esalen has exercised a significant influence on our culture and society. CTR sponsors work in fields that think tanks and universities typically ignore, either because those fields are too controversial, too new, or because they fall between disciplinary silos. These initiatives have included diplomats and political leaders, such as Joseph Montville, the influential pioneer of citizen diplomacy, Jack Matlock and Arthur Hartman, former Ambassadors to the Soviet Union, and Claiborne Pell, former Chairman of the U.S. Senate’s Foreign Relations Committee; eminent Russian cultural leaders Vladimir Pozner, Sergei Kapitsa, and Victor Erofeyev; astronaut Rusty Schweickart; philosophers Jay Ogilvy, Sam

  • Soapstone Celebrating Women Writers
    Soapstone: Celebrating Women Writers Study Groups 2015 - 2021 ====================================================== Reading Claudia Rankine, led by Ashley Toliver Six Saturday Mornings, 10:00 to 12, April – May, 2021 via Zoom Few books of modern poetry have so handily met and captured the zeitgeist of our collective psyche as Claudia Rankine's 2004 book, Citizen. Published in the midst of the nation’s spreading awareness of police brutality, racism and the birth of the Black Lives Matter movement, Citizen became an instant classic for its everyday depictions of the micro-aggressions faced by Black Americans, for whom the personal is always political. www.poetryfoundation.org/poets/claudia- rankine What’s interested me about Rankine’s career is how her work has moved from the intimately personal— permitting us only mere glimpses of the surrounding world— to the largely collective in both voice and concern. When I first encountered Claudia’s work, I was a college sophomore. While browsing the poetry stacks of my college library, I discovered her first two books, Nothing In Nature is Private and The End of the Alphabet. Both books swept me off my feet with the intensity of their inward gaze. In this study group, I’m interested in exploring the transition in subjectivity and form that takes shape in the space between Rankine’s The End of the Alphabet and Citizen. We’ll also explore selected readings in the form of additional excerpts from her work, interviews, articles, and/or whatever else we discover along the way. It’s my hope that this class will be an open, easy-going space where we can discuss Rankine’s work with fluidity, ease, and good humor.

Contact: [email protected] Lesbian Jurisprudence? Ruthann Robson* 'The inquiry is lesbian jurisprudence. Does it exist? Can it exist? How is it different from recent "attempts" at feminist juris- prudence,' if at all? How is it different from jurisprudential at- tempts to ground homosexuality, 2 if at all? And if lesbian jurisprudence exists, what are its characteristics, its concerns, its methodologies? And if lesbian jurisprudence is being created, what should be its characteristics, its concerns, its methodologies? This article poses the question of lesbian jurisprudence. In order to understand the complexity of the question, this article first offers some preliminary definitions for lesbianism as well as a brief explication of jurisprudence. Combining lesbian and juris- prudence into a question, this article limits the question by re- jecting two possible answers: that lesbian jurisprudence is feminist jurisprudence and that lesbian jurisprudence is a paradigm capable of universal application. The article then seeks to give present im- aginative content to the question by drawing upon mythical meta- phors from our collective past and by surveying science fiction conceptions of the future. The mythical metaphors serve a pur- pose similar to that served by the common embodiment of justice as a woman blindfolded and holding a scale.

  • Rolfing: Structural Integration As American Metaphysical Religiosity

Rolf and her life’s work of Structural Integration or Rolfing is a product of early twentieth century American metaphysical thought. Rolfing is an American form of somatic bodywork that strives to overcome the Cartesian mind/body split. Through structural work via manual manipulation, Rolfing attempts to achieve physical health and emotional intelligence. This paper explores four major aspects of Rolfing as American Metaphysical religiosity, as defined by Catherine L. Albanese in Republic of Mind and Spirit: A Cultural History of American Metaphysical Religion. The project also explores the origins of somatic bodywork and the metaphysical idea of spiritual transformation through physical change. The Esalen Institute is examined for its part in developing a secular American metaphysical religiosity that fostered and promoted Rolfing.

  • Bay Windows Thursday Oct 30, 2008
    Bay Windows Thursday Oct 30, 2008 State races It goes without saying that Bay Windows readers should go to the polls to vote on Election Day, but as the LGBT community learned over the last few years during the marriage debate, there’s more to democracy than just casting a vote. There are several candidates with strong positions on LGBT equality who deserve more than just the community’s vote on Election Day; we should be out in the district for these candidates holding signs and helping the candidates get out the vote. If you live in or near any of their districts and can take time off work on Election Day, contact their campaigns and offer your support as a volunteer. And check out the voter guide on page 4 to see all the LGBT endorsements. Among the top priorities is Sara Orozco’s campaign to unseat anti-gay Wrentham Sen. Scott Brown (Norfolk, Bristol and Middlesex district). Orozco is an out lesbian and a Needham psychologist who is particularly passionate about issues facing LGBT youth and elders, and she would be a wonderful addition to the Senate. And it would be poetic justice for an out lesbian to defeat Brown, who is a longtime opponent of marriage equality and who once criticized his predecessor, openly gay Cheryl Jacques, for having children with her partner, calling their family "not normal." Voters should also lend a hand on Election Day to Rep. Jamie Eldridge, who is campaigning to succeed retiring Sen. Pam Resor in the Middlesex and Worcester seat. Eldridge was one of the lawmakers on the frontlines of the fight to protect marriage equality, and he would continue Resor’s legacy of support for LGBT rights in the Senate.

  • A New Age Case Study on Contested Models of Science
    CALIFORNIA STATE UNIVERSITY, NORTHRIDGE QI EQUALS MC-SQUARED: A NEW AGE CASE STUDY ON CONTESTED MODELS OF SCIENCE, SPIRITUALITY AND THE ACQUISITION OF SCIENTIFIC KNOWLEDGE A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements For the degree of Master of Arts in Anthropology By Garrett Sadler December 2014 The thesis of Garrett Sadler is approved: _________________________________________ ______________ Dr. Christina von Mayrhauser Date _________________________________________ ______________ Dr. Sabina Magliocco Date _________________________________________ ______________ Dr. Kimberly Kirner, Chair Date California State University, Northridge ii Acknowledgements There are many people to whom I am endlessly in debt for their guidance, wisdom, expertise, support, sympathy, counseling, therapy (lots and lots of therapy), and—simply put—genuine care for my success over the course of this project and, more generally, my graduate career. Thank you, Drs. Christina von Mayrhauser, Sabina Magliocco, and Kimberly Kirner. Each of you has played a significant role in developing and honing my skills and intellect in anthropological thought and, perhaps more significantly, in being a good person. Additionally, I would like to single out two students without whose friendship (more accurately, mentorship) I would not have completed this degree: Victoria Weaver and Kevin Zemlicka. Victoria and Kevin, I am honored to have you as such dear friends. From our mutual experiences in this program, I know that our bond is permanent. Please be prepared to keep assisting me with my many neuroses in the future. To all of those mentioned above, know that you have instilled in me aspects of character, personality, identity (or whatever the hell you want to call it) that will remain with me eternally.

  • American Book Awards 2004
    BEFORE COLUMBUS FOUNDATION PRESENTS THE AMERICAN BOOK AWARDS 2004 America was intended to be a place where freedom from discrimination was the means by which equality was achieved. Today, American culture THE is the most diverse ever on the face of this earth. Recognizing literary excel- lence demands a panoramic perspective. A narrow view strictly to the mainstream ignores all the tributaries that feed it. American literature is AMERICAN not one tradition but all traditions. From those who have been here for thousands of years to the most recent immigrants, we are all contributing to American culture. We are all being translated into a new language. BOOK Everyone should know by now that Columbus did not “discover” America. Rather, we are all still discovering America—and we must continue to do AWARDS so. The Before Columbus Foundation was founded in 1976 as a nonprofit educational and service organization dedicated to the promotion and dissemination of contemporary American multicultural literature. The goals of BCF are to provide recognition and a wider audience for the wealth of cultural and ethnic diversity that constitutes American writing. BCF has always employed the term “multicultural” not as a description of an aspect of American literature, but as a definition of all American litera- ture. BCF believes that the ingredients of America’s so-called “melting pot” are not only distinct, but integral to the unique constitution of American Culture—the whole comprises the parts. In 1978, the Board of Directors of BCF (authors, editors, and publishers representing the multicultural diversity of American Literature) decided that one of its programs should be a book award that would, for the first time, respect and honor excellence in American literature without restric- tion or bias with regard to race, sex, creed, cultural origin, size of press or ad budget, or even genre.

  • Children of the New Age’ – Is Qualitatively Rich but Quantitatively Limited
    9 THE END OF ‘NEW AGE’ The church dissatisfies me. I know all the things they teach. I want more, you know? (Alison, Unit of Service, 1997) We are trained to listen to experts in our culture and not to ourselves. The premise of the New Age is the other way around. (Spangler 1996: 184) The whole point is our journey,not our destination. (Edwards 1993: 63) Recapitulation In this book I have reconstructed the genealogy of a multivalent emblem,‘New Age’,within interconnected networks of ‘alternative’spirituality from the 1930s to the 1990s. In the first part, called ‘Emblem’, I examined Peter Caddy’s career in the Rosicrucian Order, the activities of Sheena Govan’s group and the early years of the Findhorn settlement. I found evidence of other networks active in England, New Zealand and the US in the late 1950s and early 1960s – George Trevelyan, the Heralds of the New Age, the North American ‘subculture’ delineated by David Spangler – for whom ‘New Age’ was an apocalyptic emblem within a cocktail of occult, psychic and spiritualistic ideas and practices. In this early period the expression had objective historical status among communicants: a ‘New Age’ was imminent, its apocalyptic harbingers were on the horizon and groups had to prepare themselves spiritually in response. In the second part, ‘Idiom’, I traced the diffusion and disintegration of this emblem in the 1970s and beyond under the influence of a youthful counter culture and a concomitant decline in the authority of grand narratives (Lyotard 1979) in the culture at large. ‘New Age’ became, as it were, adjectival, a loose ‘quality’ of a person, act or social process rather than a negotiated emblem.As a 195 IDIOM sign of this shift it became self-consciously problematised by both participants and observers – one informant in Lowe and Shaw (1993: 227) said vehemently ‘I hate that cliche “New Age” ’.
