  • The Heart Le Coeur
    Issue 27 – Fall 2006 The Heart Le Coeur Newsletter of the McGill & Communiqué de la communauté de School of Nursing Community l’École des sciences infirmières de McGill “Please Call Me Frank”: An Interview With Franco Carnevale ULRIKA DREVNIOK ntil recently, Franco Carnevale was the critical care coordinator of the Montreal Children’s Hospital for the PICU, NICU and ER, as well as the Chair of the Pediatric Ethics Commit- Utee. As of October 16th, his growing academic portfolio has expanded to include the title of Assistant Director of the Master’s Program at the School of Nursing. He maintains professorial duties, supervision of graduate students, and conduction of research at the SON, and is also active in the Biomedical Ethics Unit and the Counselling Psychology Department, both at McGill. Dr. Car- nevale will also maintain his pediatric ethics and critical care advanced practice nursing responsibili- ties at the Children’s. Dr. Carnevale does not understand the term “male nurse”. He calls it a “bizarre label”, and after interviewing him I have to agree that the “male” qualifier isn’t really necessary. Dr. Carnevale holds an undergraduate degree in nursing, Master’s degrees in nursing, education, bioethics, philosophy, a doctorate in psychology, and a doctorate-in-progress in philosophy. While he says he does struggle with the phenomena within nursing of faster ascension within the ranks for males, there can be no question of his qualifications for the various hats he wears within the MUHC. By the way, don’t ask him how much he works. For all the hours he’s put in, his father estimates that he’s been making less than minimum wage over the course of his education and career.

  • About This Issue
    ABOUT THIS ISSUE SCHOOL SCHMOOL WAS CREATED IN TIOHTIÀ:KE ("MONTREAL"), UNCEDED INDIGENOUS KANIEN'KEHA:KA (MOHAWK) TERRITORY, WHICH HAS HISTORICALLY BEEN A MEETING AND LIVING SPACE FOR HAUDENOSAUNEE, ABÉNAKI, AND ALGONQUIN PEOPLE. WE ALSO RECOGNIZE THE CONTINUED PRESENCE OF MÉTIS, INNU, AND INUIT FOLK ON THIS LAND. School Schmool is your radical guide to your often unradical school. In 1994, the first editors wrote, “When we say ‘school schmool’ we don’t mean to be dismissive. What we mean is that there are a lot of things going on at university, and school is only one of them.” Though it began as a bi-annual publication that brought together group profiles, articles, and practical resources for social justice, School Schmool is now an ad-free, corporate-free, agenda-with-an-agenda, connecting the McGill, Concordia, and greater Tioh’tia:ke communities.We hope to bridge (and break) the gap between academia and issues outside the classroom by providing a guidebook where students can find information on resources and initiatives taking place in their communities. We strive to feature content that presents radical, anti-oppressive, and intersectional perspectives on current issues, especially works by Queer and/or Trans people, Black and/or Indigenous people, and other people of colour. The theme for this year’s edition is THE TANGIBLE. Over the past few years, it's often felt like everyone was particularly exhausted. Instead of just talking about how shitty things sometimes are, we wanted to offer possibilities for concrete actions, and real ideas for creating radical communities. Sometimes engagement can mean learning how to occupy the McGill administration building (p.

Without these documents, the best investigative reporting in the world could not have produced a book, and the secrets of CIA mind-control work would have remained buried forever, as the men who knew them had always intended. From the documentary base, I was able to expand my knowledge through interviews and readings in the behavioral sciences. Neverthe- less, the final result is not the whole story of the CIA's attack on the mind. Only a few insiders could have written that, and they choose to remain silent. I have done the best I can to make the book as accurate as possible, but I have been hampered by the refusal of most of the principal characters to be interviewed and by the CIA's destruction in 1973 of many of the key docu- ments.
