Spelman's Student Government As­ Erin M. Lott, Editor-in-Chief sociation expressed concern that students and faculty were apathetic towards Kendra Gills, Editorial Advisor Inauguration would not participate during the events. Students are broken down Keisa Davis, Advertising Manager into two categories — those who remember Dr. Cole and those who only know Adrianna Hill, Business Manager Dr. Manley. One former Spelman student refers to the first group as “spoiled.” Spoiled in that we were led by a dynamic woman with a powerful voice and strong opinions which altered the direction of Spelman and the women she produced. Arts & Entertainment Jaguar Spirit We are the ones questioning why we don’t see our president walking through Jamilla Coleman Heather Holloway Upper Manley or around campus as did Dr. Cole. Phylicia Fant Melissa McDaniel On Site Info. This is not to say that Dr. Manley is not dynamic in her own right — she has Najeema Washington Andei Williams a different style. With her long list of accolades, this Spelmanite has come to our Angela Green college and profoundly changed the registration process. Currently, she is Beyond the Gates Danica Tisdale initiating several projects to renovate run-down buildings on campus. Tiffany Edwards Sommer Brokaw Voices Among those who have served as President of Spelman College, Dr. Manley LaKenya McKenzie Mesha Williams is unique because she is an alumna. Dr. Manley was the main force behind this Temi Oluyemi Shannon Gore year’s joint Homecoming with Morehouse; perhaps she wanted it out of her Delanda Robbins Rayna Ward recollection of the two schools having an interdependent and (supposedly) close Adriana Spikes relationship. The result (and the reason that most events are not done in conjunction with Morehouse) was the neglect on the part of our “brothers” to remember to mention our name in the radio advertisements, or to mention the name of our Queen and her Court (Nabulungi Mack-Williams, Adria Andrews, Shericko Davis) during the football activities. And why did we have to pay to see Morehouse lose... again? Not to mention that only eight seats were allotted for the fifteen member SGA at the Fashion Show. All of this despite the fact that all Photographers of these expenses were shared between Spelman and Morehouse. One Spelman Alicia Lenon student alluded that we were “The Bank of Spelman.” Our money, not our Shironda White presence, was important. I prefer to think of this more from a sociological point of view of the female role in a household — Spelman's SGA did all of the work (or a sizeable share of the work), but Morehouse received the recognition. Copy Editor Heather McCollum Dr. Cole, an Alumna of Tuskeegee University, had not experienced Spelman’s relationship with Morehouse. But she knew how to develop from adolescence into her womanhood, defining our own identity, instead of being defined by Morehouse. We were no longer the school across the street from Morehouse, but Morehouse became the school across the street from Spelman. Eventually, student apathy and reluctancy to be receptive to Dr. Manley will Staff Advisors pass. All of us who remember having a president like Dr. Cole will graduate, and Vicki Williams the students remembering this Inaugural Week will be around to tell future Dr. Madeleine Picciotto Sj)elmanites of their first Alumna President.

  • Tackling Challenging Issues in Shakespeare for Young Audiences
    Shrews, Moneylenders, Soldiers, and Moors: Tackling Challenging Issues in Shakespeare for Young Audiences DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Elizabeth Harelik, M.A. Graduate Program in Theatre The Ohio State University 2016 Dissertation Committee: Professor Lesley Ferris, Adviser Professor Jennifer Schlueter Professor Shilarna Stokes Professor Robin Post Copyright by Elizabeth Harelik 2016 Abstract Shakespeare’s plays are often a staple of the secondary school curriculum, and, more and more, theatre artists and educators are introducing young people to his works through performance. While these performances offer an engaging way for students to access these complex texts, they also often bring up topics and themes that might be challenging to discuss with young people. To give just a few examples, The Taming of the Shrew contains blatant sexism and gender violence; The Merchant of Venice features a multitude of anti-Semitic slurs; Othello shows characters displaying overtly racist attitudes towards its title character; and Henry V has several scenes of wartime violence. These themes are important, timely, and crucial to discuss with young people, but how can directors, actors, and teachers use Shakespeare’s work as a springboard to begin these conversations? In this research project, I explore twenty-first century productions of the four plays mentioned above. All of the productions studied were done in the United States by professional or university companies, either for young audiences or with young people as performers. I look at the various ways that practitioners have adapted these plays, from abridgments that retain basic plot points but reduce running time, to versions incorporating significant audience participation, to reimaginings created by or with student performers.
