PHYLLIS SANTRY: This is Phyllis Santry, I’m talking to Debbie Irwin in New York City on June 9th, 2014—part of the Oral History Project of the Pembroke Center Associates. Debbie, I’m sure you took a look at some of these questions—it’s basically divided into three sections: your background, your experience at Brown, and then your eXperiences going forward. So we have a few sample questions that might get the ball rolling here, whatever you think is important to focus on, of course, is up to you. Could you tell me a little bit about your family and your background? DEBBIE IRWIN: Sure. I don’t recall actually if you said my name—I’m Debbie Irwin. SANTRY: Oh, did I not say that? Oh dear. [laughter] IRWIN: You may have, I’m a little distracted by the noise in the background, and I hope that it’s not a problem for the recording… So, I grew up in Chicago, and my father was a professor of Entomology at the University of Illinois. And my mom was and is a family therapist. We did a lot of traveling abroad because my father won a Fulbright, twice, to study wherever he wanted. So we went to Rome and spent a year there.

  • Ryan King-White Dissertation
    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: BASEBALL, CITIZENSHIP, AND NATIONAL IDENTITY IN GEORGE W. BUSH’S AMERICA Ryan Edward King‐White, Doctor of Philosophy, 2008 Dissertation directed by: Professor David L. Andrews Department of Kinesiology The four separate, but related, studies within this research project seek to offer a critical understanding for how American national identit(ies), and particular forms of (cultural) citizenship are discursively constructed and performed in and through the sport of baseball. More specifically, this dissertation will utilize and expand upon critical theories of neoliberalism, citizenship, whiteness, and (physical) cultural studies to engage various empirical sites, which help provide the context for everyday life in contemporary America. Each chapter looks at various empirical aspects of the Little League World Series and the fans of the Boston Red Sox (popularly referred to as Red Sox Nation) that have historically privileged particular performances and behaviors often associated with white, American, heterosexual, upper‐middle class, masculine subject‐positions. In the first instance this project also attempts to describe how ‘normalized’ American citizenship is being (re)shaped in and through the sport of baseball. Secondly, I aim to critically evaluate claims made by both Little League Baseball, and the Boston Red Sox organization, in response to (popular) criticisms (Bryant, 20002; Mosher, 2001a, 2001b, 2001c) of regressive activity and behavior historically related to their organizations, that they

First, NBCD has demonstrated that it does not possess market power in any relevant programming market.72S As demonstrated in Section IV.B.I, this will remain true following the proposed transaction. Second, NBCD does not "coerce" or "force" MVPDs to select any particular combination or bundle ofchannels.726 To the contrary, upon an MVPD's request NBCU will offer any ofits non-broadcast networks on a standalone basis (except with respect to the HD simulcast versions ofNBCU's SD networks) and will negotiate a rate that reflects the value ofany such networks on a standalone basis. This approach is reflected in the fact that most MVPDs choose to carry 724 See, e.g., Jefferson Parish, 466 U.S. at 12-18; Northern Pac. Ry. Co. v.
