  • Sabrina Hernandez Thesis Adviso
    Bavaria: More than Just Oktoberfest Bayern: Mehr als nur Oktoberfest An Honors Thesis (HONR 499) by Sabrina Hernandez Thesis Advisor Dr. Laura Seset Ball State University Muncie, IN November 2017 Expected Date of Graduation December 2017 2 Abstract In this paper I discuss several aspects of Munich and Bavaria. The city is a central hub for the region that has its own unique history, language, and cultural aspects. The history of the city' s founding is quite interesting and also has ties to the history of the German nation. The language spoken in Bavaria is specific to the region and there are several colloquialisms that are only used in Germany's southernmost region. The location of the city is also an important topic discussed in the paper as well. Acknowledgments I would like to thank Dr. Laura Seset for advising me throughout this process. Her help and support throughout the process was more than I could have asked for in a thesis advisor. Her encouragement to go on this trip was something that drew me to these unique experiences that I would not have had, had I not decided to go on this trip. I would also like to thank her for helping me improve my German writing abilities, which was incredibly helpful during my time abroad. Vielen Dank Frau Seset, ohne Ihnen hatte ich dass nicht geschaft! I would also like to thank my parents for encouraging me throughout all four years here at Ball State and for providing me with the opportunity to study abroad. Without their support and encouragement this would have been an impossible task.

  • Erlangen: Results of the Intercultural Cities Index Date: September 2016 a Comparison Between 75 Cities1
    Erlangen: Results of the Intercultural Cities Index Date: September 2016 A comparison between 75 cities1 Introduction The Intercultural Cities is a Council of Europe flagship programme. It seeks to explore the potential of an intercultural approach to integration in communities with culturally diverse populations. The cities participating in the programme are reviewing their governance, policies, discourse and practices from an intercultural point of view. In the past, this review has taken the form of narrative reports and city profiles – a form which was rich in content and detail. However, narrative reports alone were relatively weak as tools to monitor and communicate progress. Thus, an “Intercultural City Index” has been designed as a benchmarking tool for the cities taking part in the programme as well as for future participants. As of today 75 cities have undergone their intercultural policies analysis using the Intercultural City Index: Amadora (Portugal), Arezzo (Italy), Barcelona (Spain), Beja (Portugal), Bergen (Norway), Bilbao (Spain), Botkyrka (Sweden), Bucharest (Romania), Campi Bisenzio (Italy), Cartagena (Spain), Casalecchio di Rena (Italy), Castellón (Spain), Coimbra (Portugal), Constanta (Romania), Copenhagen (Denmark), Donostia-San Sebastian 2 (Spain), Dortmund (Germany), Dublin (Ireland), Duisburg (Germany), Erlangen (Germany), Forli (Italy), Fucecchio (Italy), Fuenlabrada (Spain), Geneva (Switzerland), Genoa (Italy), Getxo (Spain), Haifa (Israel), Hamburg (Germany), Ioannina (Greece), Izhevsk (Udmart Republic, Russia),
