For more information, please contact [email protected] THE FLORIDA STATE UNIVERSITY COLLEGE OF COMMUNICATIONS REPRESENTATION OF JEWS IN THE MEDIA: AN ANALYSIS OF OLD HOLLYWOOD STEREOTYPES PERPETUATED IN MODERN TELEVISION By MINNAH STEIN A Thesis submitted to the Department of Communications and Media Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for graduation with Honors in the Major Degree Awarded: Summer, 2021 The members of the Defense Committee approve the thesis of Minnah Stein defended on April 2, 2021. Dr. Andrew Opel Thesis Director Dr. Martin Kavka Outside Committee Member Dr. Arienne Ferchaud Committee Member 2 Abstract Anti-Semitism in the United States is just as prevalent today as it has ever been. How does this cultural anti-Semitism translate into the media? Through portraying Jews as greedy, neurotic, pushy, money obsessed, cheap, and a myriad other negative stereotypes, the media often perpetuates long standing anti-Semitic tropes. This thesis analyzes the prevalence of Jewish stereotypes in modern television through the analysis and discussion of three of the most popular current television shows, getting into the nuance and complexity of Jewish representation. Through the deliberate viewing of Big Mouth, The Goldbergs, and Schitt’s Creek, the conclusion is that although an effort is being made to debunk some stereotypes about Jews, there are other Jewish stereotypes that have remained popular in television media. These stereotypes are harmful to Jews because they both feed and fuel the anti-Semitic attitudes of viewers.

    GAGOSIAN & 980 AN ENDURING LEGACY IT HAPPENS AT THE CARLYLE CENTRAL PARK: AN URBAN OASIS Photos by Damien Fry “VENUS AND MANHATTAN” Aluminum statue by Wheeler Williams Timeless and refined, this neighborhood never goes out of style. The heart of the locale’s cultural zeitgeist resides in the East 70s. Joining the iconic 980 Madison Avenue, described as the “epicenter of the New York art world,” are the Carlyle, the Mark Hotel, Sant Ambroeus and Marcel Breuer’s architectural landmark where the Frick Collection will be in residence. The city’s most desirable residential neighborhood is now also an ideal location to establish a family office. Introducing the Collection at 980 Madison Avenue. THE BREUER BUILDING THE MARK HOTEL THE GUGGENHEIM FIFTH AVENUE CENTRAL PARK An Enduring Legacy “It combines all of the best of traditional and modern schools of architectural thought.” Architect William A. Delano FAÇADE OF 980 MADISON AVENUE Text by Thomas Mellins One of the most recognizable landmarks on the Upper East Side has been thoughtfully restored and curated by RFR. Commissioned as the headquarters of Parke-Bernet Galleries. EXTERIOR OF 980 MADISON AVENUE, 1954 Park views, and its lushly landscaped rooftop served not only as an amenity for auction house employees but also as an additional neighborhood grace note when seen from the hotel. At the building’s opening, the well- known architect William A. Delano succinctly stated that “it combines all of the best of traditional and modern schools of architectural thought.” EXTERIOR OF 980 MADISON AVENUE Lewis Mumford, the New Yorker’s 6-story building designed by Walker & Poor esteemed architecture critic and an outspoken champion of modern architecture, compared Walker & The building’s main Poor’s work favorably to that of one of architectural modernism’s pioneers.

    HUMAN DEVELOPMENT REPORT 2000 determined to reaffirm faith in fundamental human rights, in the dignity and worth of the humanFREEDOM FROM DISCRIMINATION person, in FREEDOM FROM FEAR the equalFREEDOM rightsOF SPEECH of men and womenFREEDOM FROM WANTand of FREEDOM TO DEVELOP AND REALIZE ONE'S HUMAN POTENTIAL nations largeFREEDOM FROM INJUSTICEand AND VIOLATIONS small OF THE RULE OF LAW FREEDOM FOR DECENT WORK - WITHOUT EXPLOITATION. Human rights and human development share a common vision and a common purpose—to secure, for every human being, freedom, well-being and dignity. Divided by the cold war, the rights agenda and the development agenda followed parallel tracks. Now converging, their distinct strategies and traditions can bring new strength to the struggle for human freedom. Human Development Report 2000 looks at human rights as an intrinsic part of development—and at development as a means to realizing human rights. It shows how human rights bring principles of accountability and social justice to the process of human development. The 20th century’s advances in human rights have been remarkable. But gross violations of rights, both loud and silent, persist. This Report explores the new rights agenda for the 21st century— and proposes bold new approaches to political and economic governance that deliver social jus- tice. Stronger international action is called for, especially to support disadvantaged people and countries—and to offset growing global inequalities: • Promoting inclusive democracy as the form of government best suited to fulfilling all human rights—by protecting minorities, separating powers and ensuring public accountability. • Demanding the eradication of poverty not just as a development goal—but as a central challenge for human rights.

Shares of each company saw their prices decline after Lands’ End offi cially became a public company TUESDAY, APRIL 8, 2014 ■ $3.00 ■ WOMEN’S WEAR DAILY again. The spin-off from Sears was completed on WWD Friday and Lands’ End now trades on the Nasdaq under the symbol “LE.” Prior to the spin-off, Sears received a dividend of $500 million from the cata- logue fi rm. Lands’ End will continue to pay Sears rent for the shops-in-shop space it occupies in 250 Sears’ stores. Lands’ End saw its stock price fall 6.7 percent to close at $29.55, from Friday’s close of $31.67. Shares of the company began preliminary trading on the Nasdaq on March 20 under the symbol “LEDMV” on a “when-issued” basis.

  • Political Science Department Newsletter
    FALL 2018 POLITICAL SCIENCE DEPARTMENT NEWSLETTER SKIDMORE COLLEGE Dear Political Science Majors and Minors, I hope that you are enjoying the fall semester and that your midterms are going well. It is hard to believe that we are already heading into the second half of the semester! The start of this academic year has been bittersweet for our department. This fall marks the beginning of Professor Vac’s last year of teaching at Skidmore. He is has one of the liveliest intellects of the faculty and reads voraciously, making him a well-respected scholar and thoughtful teacher. During the past 32 years Professor Vacs has been a model of collegiali- ty. He strives to ensure that students and faculty are treated fairly and always kindly. Hannah Fishman has written a lovely piece on Professor Vacs’s academic career. I encourage you all to read it. As sadden as we are by Professor Vacs’s retire- ment, we are cheered by the thought of him on a Latin American beach! I am delighted to welcome three new faculty members to our department. Patrick Campbell and Ed Kammerer teach American politics and Rob L’Arivee teaches political philosophy. All three professors are replacing faculty who are ei- ther on sabbatical or have taken on administrative responsibilities. As you will quickly learn from reading their profiles, Pro- fessors Campbell, Kammerer, and L’Arivee are clever and interesting people. Don’t miss an opportunity to take a class with them! This semester’s newsletter includes our second crossword puzzle. Last spring’s crossword puzzle was a lot of fun for all and, so, we have a second puzzle.
