  • Fall 2014 What’S New? New Minor: Iranian Studies the Near Eastern Languages and Cultures Department Has Established a New Minor in Iranian Studies
    -15 ii UCLA Schedule of Classes Fall 2014 What’s New? New Minor: Iranian Studies The Near Eastern Languages and Cultures department has established a new minor in Iranian Studies. The minor gives stu- dents the opportunity to study Iranian languages and civilization while majoring in a different field of study. Introductory courses in the minor provide a foundation in Iranian history, languages, and religions, as well as Persian languages and literature. Other courses in the minor enable students to study particular areas of interest in greater depth. New Minor: Teaching Secondary Mathematics The Teaching Secondary Mathematics minor is designed for students majoring in fields other than mathematics who plan to teach secondary mathematics after graduation. The minor provides recognition for completion of prerequisite coursework for the Joint Mathematics Education Program and prepares students for topics covered on the California Subject Examination for Teachers (CSET) Mathematics test. Instructional Enhancement Initiative (IEI) Fee Billing Change Effective Fall 2014, the IEI fee is converted to a campus-based flat fee and charged to all undergraduate students. Previously the fee was unit-based and billed later in the quarter, based on enrollment in courses as of the fourth week of the quarter. Some students were not aware of the charge, and for some it impacted their ability to enroll in subsequent quarters or impeded their ability to graduate. With the new billing timing, students will be better informed of the fee and the fee can be included in finan- cial aid packages. This is not a fee increase. The fee generates the same amount of revenue as it did previously.

  • UNIVERSITY of CALIFORNIA Los Angeles PET Imaging of Nucleoside Metabolism for Individualized Therapy a Dissertation Submitted In
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles PET Imaging of Nucleoside Metabolism for Individualized Therapy A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Molecular and Medical Pharmacology by Jason Thanh Lee 2012 © COPYRIGHT Jason Thanh Lee 2012 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION PET Imaging of Nucleoside Metabolism for Individualized Therapy by Jason Thanh Lee Doctor of Philosphy in Molecular and Medical Pharmacology University of California, Los Angeles, 2012 Professor Caius G. Radu, Chair Molecular imaging diagnostics such as Positron Emission Tomography (PET) have significantly improved cancer patient management. PET allows the non-invasive, whole body imaging of metabolic processes and has been extensively used to detect lesions and monitor patient response to therapeutic intervention. Despite the development of a large number of PET probes, only a limited few find utility for imaging cancer. Furthermore, complex probe metabolism may render image interpretation difficult. With these factors in mind, my work focuses on improving PET imaging of nucleoside metabolism for cancer detection and prediction of treatment response. The thymidine analog, 3’-deoxy-3’-18F-fluorothymidine (18F-FLT), is extensively used as a measurement of tumor proliferation. However, its use is limited in tissues of murine origin, which do not avidly take up 18F-FLT. Here, we describe a pharmaceutical intervention using dipyridamole (DPA) to extend the utility of 18F-FLT PET for imaging mice tissues and tumors. ii Administration of DPA ten minutes prior to injection of probe allowed visualization of thymus, bone marrow and spleen tissues in C57/BL6 mice and murine tumor models of melanoma, lung carcinoma, and leukemia.

  • Of Kappa Kappa- Gamma Fall 1968
    OF KAPPA KAPPA- GAMMA FALL 1968 •• And God said~ Let there be light: and there was light.!!!! (Genesis 1:3) Light from that first dawn continues to bless God's universe. The light of sun and moon and stars, electric light illuminating the lives of millions, or the light of the single candle you hold-all dispel darkness. In time, the darkness of ignorance is dispelled by the light of knowledge. One such significant moment of enlightenment which occurred a hundred years ago opened wide the doors of institutions of higher learning formerly closed to women. Seeking to improve their new opportunities for education, some of those early college girls established the first women's Greek letter societies. The meetings they held were exercises in improvement. They prepared and read literary papers; they tried out musical and artistic talents; they debated and practiced oratory. The first reproof on record administered by members to a fellow member was reserved for the girl whose literary paper was judged not up to standards. Today when Kappas light candles in Kappa ceremonies, they do so to sym­ bolize the light they have promised to cherish throughout their lives. The lighted candles memorialize lives of women in all the Kappa chapters, since 1870, and the promises they make to uphold truth and goodness, faith and honor and reverence for God and His creations. "The power of our light is great, for better or worse. It is greater when we band together as in a sisterhood than when we stand alone." ( -Dr. Doris Seward, at the Candlelight Dinner, 1968 Biennial Convention.) OF KAPPA KAPPA GAMMA The first coUege women's magazine.

  • The 3Rd Year Gazette April 2021 the 3Rd Year Gazette
    The 3rd Year Gazette April 2021 The 3rd year Gazette I am procrastinating, you are procrastinating, he is procrastinating, she is procrastinating, we are procrastinating, they are procrastinating ….. By James Corbett Procrastination is the action of delaying or postponing something. The reason I chose to write about this today is because like most people I procrastinate but I guess it has helped with coming up with an idea for this gazette. Although on the article that "William Sydnor" wrote; he said that the student that procrastinated still got a fair grade I still believe that procrastination is the key to being a failure, eventually, it will catch up to you. In order to be successful one must manage time well. In my opinion, I think procrastination has a few stages which goes something like this: Stage 1) Having a plan all laid out to minimise workload. Stage 2) Then you usually find something else to do to get instant gratification. This is a stage that usually makes you feel good. Stage 3) But then all of a sudden you wake up one day and realise, oh no the project is due in two days. This is when you start to panic and just accept the fact that you have to do the work and realise it would've been better if you followed through on stage one. Why procrastination isn't about laziness. When we procrastinate, we’re not only aware that we’re avoiding the task in question, but also that doing so is probably a bad idea. And yet, we do it anyway.

Martial, Delmas 33 Cathy Ellenbogen Dignity | Transformation | Growth Lavarice Gaudin Ingrid Henrys Photo Credit: Claire Pask Jean Michel Petit Bois Dear friends, In 2006 when SOIL was founded in northern Haiti, we were determined to work in respect and solidarity with communities to determine what solutions we could co-create that would effect real, lasting change. Rather than coming in with a preformed idea and simply implementing it, we chose to engage in open-ended conversations about what these communities needed most. Over the past decade we have found that our quiet voices have started to echo around the world, growing into a passionate, vibrant conversation about how best to build a sanitation solution that works for everyone. Today, we are humbled and proud to see SOIL’s work held up as a success to be emulated globally. Our vision for a sustainable sanitation future is catching on and gaining momentum, and the SOIL team is still on the front lines – pushing for solutions that prioritize community empowerment, sustainable impact, and environmental restoration. We thank you – our friends, family, staff, supporters, and fellow dreamers – for being a continual source of inspiration, for pushing us to stay true to our commitments, and for making it possible for SOIL to grow into the international force for change that we are today.

    THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY SCHREYER HONORS COLLEGE DEPARTMENT OF ENGLISH THE OBJECTIFICATION OF WOMEN IN FILM: A PSYCHOANALYTICAL READING ZACHARY WEIT SPRING 2014 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for baccalaureate degrees in English and Spanish with honors in English Reviewed and approved* by the following: Iyunolu Osagie Associate Professor of Race and Ethnicity Studies Thesis Supervisor Marcy North Associate Professor of English Penn State Representative to the Folger Shakespeare Library Honors Adviser * Signatures are on file in the Schreyer Honors College. i ABSTRACT My thesis discusses the objectification of women in the films “Transformers,” “Transformers: Dark of the Moon,” and “Crash.” The two “Transformers” movies demonstrate the roles of gender and how the male gaze operates within a Hollywood action film. The director, Michael Bay, uses his female protagonists as a spectacle for the audience to consume; these female protagonists are in fact extraneous to the plot. “Crash,” directed by Paul Haggis, shows the racial side of objectification. A white cop sexually molests one of the leading black female characters. The police officer uses her as commodified object to antagonize her husband who can do nothing but helplessly watch. My thesis uses the works of Sigmund Freud, Ferdinand de Saussure, and Jacques Lacan to explore the process film directors use to objectify women. Sigmund Freud’s reading of Sophocles’ Oedipus Rex introduces his psychoanalytic concept of the Oedipus complex, where a young boy has sexual feelings for his mother and jealous hatred towards his father. Through his research of dreams, Freud then uses E.T.A.

We have become accustomed to the strange weather of Spangle. And through it all this year has brought many laughs and great times. There was the handshake, fall picnic, class parties, mission trips, and more. Cherish these memories because they and the friends you make here can last a lifetime. In these last few days as graduation draws near, the days will come more and more quickly. The seniors drag their feet going to class and count down the days until graduation. The juniors are preparing to take on their new role. The sophomores ready themselves to be upperclassmen while the freshmen soak it all in for the first time. It’s been an honor to learn and be a part of UCA. Now the task remains to decide which memories we want to take with us. UCA is more than just a bunch of buildings and classrooms. It’s the people, the lessons you learn, and the great memories you make along the way. We seniors have had a blast. But don’t kid yourself. There will be long nights of homework and running for Soulé, but it is all worth it in the end. Juniors, be ready.
