UNIVERSITY TIMES BOD to debate rec al I proposal By Henry Fuhrmann Staff Writer The Associated Students Board of Direc­ tors will meet in emergency session this af­ ternoon to consider an uncharacteristically simple agenda: whether to schedule an e~ec- • tion considering the recall of half its 14- person membership and in the process break a deadlock between the student government and the university administration. The five directors who have called the meeting, set for 3 p.m. in Un.414, hope to end a stalemate in which (]) A.S. President Carlos M.D. Vazquez has refused to set an election date, saying he, top aides and their lawyer have found the recall petitions in valid, and (2) Dean of Students David J. Boubion .Jr., on behalf of the administration, has frozen the A.S. budget until Vazquez calls the election. None of the directors seeking a meeting is connected to "Recall '82," the diverse coalition of clubs and organizations that in May collected more than 1,300 signatures in protest of A.S. budgetary and other policies. What unites them is not any formal organizational alliance but, rather, a view that the election should be held as soon as possible. What they propose is that the BOD set the dates of July 27-28 for that purpose ~nd ask the administration, in return, to lift the budget freeze. One of the five, at-large Rep. Berne Bush, is a member of the board's non-Progressive­ slate minority. The four others are Progressives: Rep. Shirley Braus of the School of Letters and - Science; at-large Reps. Gilberto de Leon and Steven Flores; and Dalia Jaramillo, vice president for administration. De Leon, Flores and Jaramillo, in fact, are among the six Progressives subject to the recall along with Vazquez himself, the very person empowered by the A.S. bylaws to set Students and faculty members on campus have appealed to citizens munity.

  • Media Culture: Cultural Studies, Identity and Politics Between The
    Media Culture Media Culture develops methods and analyses of contemporary film, television, music, and other artifacts to discern their nature and effects. The book argues that media culture is now the dominant form of culture which socializes us and provides materials for identity in terms of both social reproduction and change. Through studies of Reagan and Rambo, horror films and youth films, rap music and African- American culture, Madonna, fashion, television news and entertainment, MTV, Beavis and Butt-Head, the Gulf War as cultural text, cyberpunk fiction and postmodern theory, Kellner provides a series of lively studies that both illuminate contemporary culture and provide methods of analysis and critique. Many people today talk about cultural studies, but Kellner actually does it, carrying through a unique mixture of theoretical analysis and concrete discussions of some of the most popular and influential forms of contemporary media culture. Criticizing social context, political struggle, and the system of cultural production, Kellner develops a multidimensional approach to cultural studies that broadens the field and opens it to a variety of disciplines. He also provides new approaches to the vexed question of the effects of culture and offers new perspectives for cultural studies. Anyone interested in the nature and effects of contemporary society and culture should read this book. Kellner argues that we are in a state of transition between the modern era and a new postmodern era and that media culture offers a privileged field of study and one that is vital if we are to grasp the full import of the changes currently shaking us.

Beard Doctor of Philosophy Department of English June 2012 Title: Horror Begins at Home: Family Trauma in Paranormal Reality TV This dissertation argues that paranormal reality television is a form of what some have referred to as “trauma television,” a site of struggle between meanings of family and the violence often found in the hegemonic nuclear family ideal. Programs such as A Haunting and Paranormal State articulate family violence and trauma through a paranormal presence in the heteronormative family home, working to make strange and unfamiliar the domestic and familial milieus in which their episodes take place.

Another common thread is how the lack of communication between family, friends and lovers can create burdens that, in some cases, are simply too heavy to lift. Some of the stories have a humorous voice while dealing with those burdens. Many others deal with the complexities of those emotions in a more somber tone. These fictional stories are completely unrelated to each other, and yet they all aim to shine a light on life’s conflicts – and on the ramifications of how we deal with those conflicts.
