  • Spring Break in the Florida Panhandle, 1938-2018 Nuno F
    The Cultural History of a Break: Spring Break in the Florida Panhandle, 1938-2018 Nuno F. Ribeiro, Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology University, Vietnam Part harmonic convergence, the result of millions of teenagers coming of age in a time of rebellion and affluence, and part hormonic convergence, a coming of age in a society saturated with sexual images, the Florida beach perfectly matched generation and lifestyles. Fort Lauderdale, Daytona Beach, and Panama City Beach were reinvented to fit an American rite of passage. —G. R. Mormino (2005: 316) Introduction In its simplest form, Spring Break is nothing more than a week-long vacation period, typically held in the early spring, recognized as such by administrators of colleges and universities across North America, and providing a respite from classes, exams, and the cold weather. But spring break is also a multi- billion-dollar tourism phenomenon that encompasses the yearly migration of thousands of college students towards a small number of sunny beaches in the Southern United States, chief among them Florida. Spring break is generally associated with the consumption of alcohol in excess, reckless behavior, and a relaxation of sexual mores, in a no-holds-barred atmosphere of unlicensed leisure, or what the New York Times dubbed “Spring Bacchanal” (Marsh 2006). More than forty scholarly articles (for a review, see Ribeiro and Hickerson 2012), and encyclopedia entries (Gianoulis 2000, Ribeiro and Hickerson 2017, Russell 2004) have been published on the topic, in addition to thousands of media pieces, news articles, op-eds, and reports by advocacy and interest groups. Novels, films, television shows, and even a handful of master’s theses and doctoral dissertations have been devoted to spring break.

Schrauf Professor of Applied Linguistics Garry E. Chick Professor of Recreation, Park and Tourism Management Professor of Anthropology Head of the Department of Recreation, Park and Tourism Management *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School iii ABSTRACT To what extent does culture, taken as the set of normative beliefs that individuals use to live their lives within a given context, correspond with actual behavior? Furthermore, are self-reported accounts of behavior sufficient to ascertain the veracity of informants‘ claims, particularly in the case of socially reproachable behavior? While culture undoubtedly influences behavior, individuals do not always behave in accordance with the cultural beliefs they purport to subscribe to, nor do they always report past events accurately. The problem is compounded when one looks at out-of-the-ordinary behaviors, like those that occur in leisure-based phenomena such as carnivals, festivals, and holidays. A paradigmatic example is Spring Break, a leisure phenomenon usually associated with extreme types of behavior.

    REMODELING TV TALENT: PARTICIPATION AND PERFORMANCE IN MTV’S REAL WORLD FRANCHISE by Hugh Phillips Curnutt Bachelor of Science, New York University, 2000 Master of Arts, Georgetown University, 2002 Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Arts and Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Pittsburgh 2008 UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH COLLEGE OF ARTS AND SCIENCES This dissertation was presented by Hugh Phillips Curnutt It was defended on November 9, 2007 and approved by Henry Krips, PhD, Professor Jonathan Sterne, PhD, Associate Professor Brenton Malin, PhD, Assistant Professor William Fusfield, PhD, Associate Professor Dissertation Director: Henry Krips, PhD, Professor ii Copyright © by Hugh Phillips Curnutt 2008 iii REMODELING TV TALENT: PARTICIPATION AND PERFORMANCE IN MTV’S REAL WORLD FRANCHISE Hugh Phillips Curnutt, PhD University of Pittsburgh, 2008 This dissertation performs a historical analysis of MTV’s Real World programming and an ethnographic study of two of its most prominent participants. In it I examine reality TV’s role in television’s ongoing transformation as a technology and cultural form from the perspective of those who work in the industry as reality-talent. By adopting this perspective, I indicate some of the ways reality TV’s construction of celebrity has altered the economic and performative regimes that have traditionally structured television stardom. One of the central issues this dissertation works to address is the way in which many participants are limited by the singular nature of their fame. To do this, I explore how the participant’s status as on-camera talent is rooted in an ability to perform as if always off-camera.

    <img class="progressiveMedia-noscript js-progressiveMedia- inner" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/ 800/1*yATv4WvSeSkbcCN9uXKnyA.jpeg"> The Rise and Fall of Hip- Hop Dance How the B-Boy and B-Girl Became Choreographed Count-By-The-Numbers Dancers Prologue: By Mauled Sadiq I have a dilemma. Every time I pull up old clips of Def Comedy Jam’s first season all I see is the comedians. Which is cool. Bernie Mack made his name with “I ain’t scared of you mothafuckas” on that jawn. But we didn’t really watch it for the comedians. We watched it for that last minute or two after Russell Simmons came out and said, “God bless.” We watched for the dancers. The culture itself was founded on dancing, with the active participants, b-boys & b-girls, attending those early parties to dance to the breaks — or “the get down” part as Hip-Hop forefather Kool Herc called that one to two minute pocket of funk that drove the crowd wild. Now, whenever I see what people call good dancing I’m bombarded with boy band dances: modified New Edition, Backstreet Boys, New Kids On The Block, Nsynch, B2k type shit. I count with them, 1,2, step, 3,4,5 step. The Five Heartbeats ain’t get trained by Harold Nicholas for us to suffer through a world full of Biebers. Where’d the dancers go? Can anyone catch wreck anymore? Who gonna open a circle? And if you weren’t trained to be a Motown artist, why you dance like that? <img class="progressiveMedia-noscript js-progressiveMedia- inner" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/ 800/1*tXSsgDCTkDrSTh0ITsGSMA.jpeg"> An ongoing joke between me and my brother Shawn McCallister is,“where is Hotdog” (Chubb Rock’s infamous Que Dog, dancer) — then we run down the list of all the MIA dancers.

Potratz November 2007 2 This thesis titled WHEN IS REALITY REAL?: YOUTH PERCEPTIONS OF MTV REALITY PROGRAMS by RACHEL M. POTRATZ has been approved for the School of Telecommunications and the Scripps College of Communication by Norma Pecora Professor, School of Telecommunications Gregory J. Shepherd Dean, Scripps College of Communication 3 Abstract POTRATZ, RACHEL M., M.A., November 2007, School of Telecommunications WHEN IS REALITY REAL?: YOUTH PERCEPTIONS OF MTV REALITY PROGRAMS (125 p). Director of Thesis: Norma Pecora This thesis examines how college freshmen relate to the personalities and content on MTV reality programs. Drawing from current theories about how viewers relate to television such as realism perceptions, identification, wishful identification, and parasocial interaction, this project looks takes a qualitative approach to understanding the particular relationships that exist between young viewers and the content and young casts of MTV reality programs. Eight college freshmen at a Midwestern university were interviewed about their perceptions of MTV reality programs, particularly Real World, Laguna Beach and The Hills. Additionally, a survey of 78 students was conducted in an introductory telecommunications course. It was found that judgments about the realism were based primarily on the students’ use of comparisons with their own lives and experiences. Additionally, knowledge of production processes played a role in realism perceptions. It was also found that students engaged in parasocial interaction and used reality television to learn about the world.
