You are embarking on a new and exciting phase of your life and have chosen to do so at one of the premier public universities in the nation. Regardless of whether you have a good idea of what you plan to major in or have no notion at all, I encourage you to explore widely the vast array of academic offerings available to you on the beautiful Bloomington campus. Exploring in this way will bring you into contact with some of the many opportunities provided by IUB’s fine departments and schools. As you do this, you will either discover that you really do have a predisposition toward a certain major or you will develop a new, exciting, and possibly previously unknown interest in and opportunity for your undergraduate studies here at IU. University Division (UD) is a wonderful place to begin your academic exploration. Your UD advisor will help you develop a plan that enables you to explore your options while at the same time making progress toward the undergraduate degree that you are setting out to earn. You should talk to your advisor regularly to receive assistance in setting your goals and in answering whatever questions may arise. UD advisors have a wealth of knowledge and experience and will be happy to help you navigate the university’s many academic options and choices. As you set out on this new path, it’s important to remember that there are lots of activities competing for your interest and time, and that college life can bring new challenges, both in the classroom and beyond. Despite the many opportunities available to you outside the classroom, remember that your main focus should be on your studies. There are many things you can do to ensure success on the academic side including making sure you get to know your professors and that you let them get to know you. The best way to do so is to take advantage of your instructor’s office hours: this is a period of time when you can receive individualized assistance and also provides your instructor the opportunity to develop a working relationship with you as an individual. When you’re not studying, take advantage of the many social, cultural, and extracurricular activities the Bloomington campus and community have to offer. Get involved in your residence hall, play an intramural sport, attend a concert at the Jacob School of Music, study abroad, cheer on your favorite intercollegiate team, volunteer in the community—the list of opportunities and choices is seemingly endless. Take full advantage of the many things IUB has to offer you educationally, culturally, and socially. Your college experience and the friends you make here will be something you will remember and cherish for the rest of your life. I extend a warm welcome to you, encourage you to maximize all of your opportunities by becoming an active member of the campus community, and wish you every success in your studies here on the Bloomington campus of Indiana University.

    ABSTRACT Title of Document: UNTOLD STORIES: THE OTHER KOREA Grace Pak, Master of Architecture, Spring 2015 Directed By: Professor Garth Rockcastle, Department of Architecture, Planning, and Preservation This thesis explores the dialectical tensions, ironies, and myths of North Korea, with the hope of exposing fallacies and bringing awareness to the crisis of the oppressed citizens of this hermetic country. There are discrepancies between the North Korea that most people know, and one that is lesser known, which contains the everyday stories of real people. The goal is to design a cultural landscape containing the narratives of the persecuted in an effort to promote understanding about a country that is largely misinterpreted because of the images the Kim dictatorship and international media have planted in the minds of many people. The architecture provides a ground for commentary on the truth and what can be done to change the current state of apathy, ignorance, and helplessness. Acts of violation against humanity that continue in North Korea must be stopped. The fact that the North and South must reunite to save the citizens of North Korea is a pressing issue that the South Koreans must genuinely want in order to create change. Gathering information about Korea’s history and attributes of the proposed site will reveal how time changes space, the way our memories and ideas are both temporal and timeless as they are exchanged. When we become more aware of the issues at large, it will change our indifference and help us react to the stories that are told. UNTOLD STORIES: THE OTHER KOREA By Grace J.

The idea is not to replace government funded refugee sponsorship program, it is simply to augment it so that the collaborative resources can be leveraged to help more refugees given an average of 24 people were being forced to flee a minute worldwide as recently as 2015. United States and Canada have many similarities. Canada has a private sponsorship model that it augments with its government sponsorship model. If this approach has been working in Canada since the 1970s, it is also worth considering in the United States. One out of 100 humans are now displaced from their homes per a Pew Research Center publication as of October 2016. If all of these individuals created a country, it would be the world’s 24th biggest country.

    JAPAN LIBRARY Outstanding books, now available in English In Japan, under the auspices of free speech and press, over 80,000 books are published every year, offering a diverse selection of literature to the nation’s readers. In this great ocean of books, we believe there are many works that should be enjoyed by not only a Japanese audience, but by a wider global audience as well. However, many such books, due to the language barrier and the limited number of translations, remain, for the most part, unread overseas. JAPAN LIBRARY is, by publishing specially selected Japanese works in English, here to introduce to the world “the diverse and multi-layered aspects of Japan and Japanese thought” and “the rich and colorful world of Japan.” With this knowledge from Japan, JAPAN LIBRARY hopes to contribute towards the creation of a universal, global knowledge. The books for JAPAN LIBRARY are hand-picked from a wide range of areas, including politics, foreign policy, social studies, culture, philosophy, and science and technology. Furthermore, by offering these works in both traditional and electronic format, JAPAN LIBRARY hopes to present a view of the real and intrinsic Japan for the world to enjoy. Japan possesses troves of timeless knowledge amassed across the ages— treasures that are distinctively Japanese that, nonetheless, transcend history and international borders. JAPAN LIBRARY is loading these treasures onto ships we call books and venturing forth into the open sea. The voyage of these books will cover great distances over time, and reach a countless number of readers across the globe. And once the voyage is complete, the treasure on board will shine anew, as these readers polish them with their own, distinctive intellects and sensibilities.

    The Dentsu COVID-19 Pulse a Weekly Curation of Key Trends and Insights for Marketers and Brands

    COVID-19 Pulse April 2nd Edition The Dentsu COVID-19 Pulse A weekly curation of key trends and insights for marketers and brands. “We cannot choose the challenges we face, but we can choose how we respond to them.” –Greek Philosopher, Epictetus It is becoming clear that COVID-19 presents a challenge unprecedented in modern times - disrupting nations, economies and lives in ways not thought possible a few weeks ago. Our ability to respond to this change in productive and constructive ways depends on our ability to sift through the overwhelming torrent of news and information: to understand key dynamics and derive actionable insights that allow us as marketers to adap t in meaningful ways to safeguard and enhance the well-being of our people, our brands and our consumers. It is in that spirit that we developed the Dentsu COVID-19 Pulse: to bring together and curate the most up-to-date information, insights and thinking from across the Dentsu network to help marketers navigate the shifting road ahead. We’ll be with you as we push through the immediate crisis into recovery and, ultimately, a return to growth. Our goal is to publish this report on a weekly basis. A final thought (and silver lining). As you will see from our research in this report, consumers are looking for brands to take an active leadership role in helping them weather this storm. That means, more than ever, brands have an opportunity (dare we say mandate) to not just MARKET AT consumers as transactional buyers of products, but MATTER TO people as individuals and members of communities.

    Fame for sale: efficient detection of fake Twitter followers✩ Stefano Crescia,b, Roberto Di Pietrob, Marinella Petrocchia, Angelo Spognardia,1,∗, Maurizio Tesconia aIIT-CNR, Via G. Moruzzi, 1 – 56124 Pisa, Italy bBell Labs, Alcatel-Lucent, Paris, France Abstract Fake followers are those Twitter accounts specifically created to inflate the number of followers of a target account. Fake followers are dangerous for the social platform and beyond, since they may alter concepts like popularity and influence in the Twittersphere—hence impacting on economy, politics, and society. In this paper, we contribute along different dimensions. First, we review some of the most relevant existing features and rules (proposed by Academia and Media) for anomalous Twitter accounts detection. Second, we create a baseline dataset of verified human and fake follower accounts. Such baseline dataset is publicly available to the scientific community. Then, we exploit the baseline dataset to train a set of machine-learning classifiers built over the reviewed rules and features. Our results show that most of the rules proposed by Media provide unsatisfactory performance in revealing fake followers, while features proposed in the past by Academia for spam detection provide good results. Building on the most promising features, we revise the classifiers both in terms of reduction of overfitting and cost for gathering the data needed to compute the features. The final result is a novel Class A classifier, general enough to thwart overfitting, lightweight thanks to the usage of the less costly features, and still able to correctly classify more than 95% of the accounts of the original training set.
