STRIGGOW: As a reminder that there are still 1 some of our brothers who have not returned, Resolution 288, adopted at the 67th 2 3 National Convention calls for designating a POW/MIA Empty Chair at all official 4 meetings of The American Legion as a physical symbol of the thousands of 5 American POW-MIAs still unaccounted for from World War II, the Korean War, the 6 Vietnam War and now, the Gulf War. The POW-MIA flag on the Empty Chair 7 serves as a reminder to all of us to spare no effort to secure the release of any 8 American prisoners from captivity, the repatriation of the remains of those who 9 died bravely in the defense of liberty and a full accounting of those missing.

Degree awarded June 2016 ii © 2016 Stephen Siperstein iii DISSERTATION ABSTRACT Stephen Siperstein Doctor of Philosophy Department of English June 2016 Title: Climate Change in Literature and Culture: Conversion, Speculation, Education This dissertation examines an emergent archive of contemporary literary and cultural texts that engage with the wicked problem of anthropogenic climate change. Following cultural geographer Michael Hulme, this project works from the assumption that climate change is as much a constellation of ideas as it is a set of material realities. I draw from a diverse media landscape so as to better understand how writers, artists, and activists in the global north are exploring these ideas and particularly what it means to be human in a time of climate change.

    VENICE CITY SCENE April 2017 A Publication for the Employees of the City of Venice, Florida Venice City Scene is published by email. Please send news items to Public Information Officer Lorraine Anderson at [email protected]. Teens at the helm for Student Government Day On March 6, teens took over City Hall. Twenty-one students from Venice High School participated in this year’s Ven- ice Student Government Day. Teens began arriving at 8 a.m. that Monday and assembled in Council Chambers for welcome remarks and a brief orientation with City Council Members, Department Directors and Charter Officers. The stu- dents were given commemorative T-shirts, then teamed up with Council Mem- bers, Directors and Charter Officers to learn their roles for a few hours. Some students got tours of City Hall; others spent time in staff offices. Each got a unique experience of a city workday. Sandra Elsadek, who was paired up with Police Chief Mattmuller, got suited up over at VPD and deployed a Taser on Training Officer Dan Schuler. A video clip is posted on the city’s Facebook page (at Venice, Florida Municipal Government). Tre Harris, who shadowed IT Director Jeff Bolen, got an "official" city employee Above, VHS students conduct a mock ID card, which are produced in that department. City Council meeting on March 6 for Airport Director Mark Cervasio arranged a tour of Agape Flights for his student, Venice Student Government Day, led Jack Farrell, who was also able to sit in some aircraft.
