Neville Hoad gave me a crash course in critical theory on gender; James Loehlin offered great feedback on the overall structure of the study; and Alan Friedman’s meticulous editing improved my writing immeasurably. I am lucky to have had the opportunity to study with Charles Ramírez Berg, who is as great a teacher and person as he is a scholar. He played a crucial role in shaping the chapters on John Ford and my overall understanding of film narrative, representation, and genre. By the same token, I am fortunate to have worked with Elizabeth Cullingford, who has been a great mentor. Her humility, wit, and generosity, as well as her brilliance and tenacity, have been a continual source of inspiration.

  • Report of Gifts, It Is Clear That the Mission of Holy Cross Is Recognized and Appreciated in Heartfelt and Tangible Ways by Its Alumni, Parents, Students and Friends
    COLLEGE OF THE HOLY CROSS Report2012 of Gifts TABLE OF CONTENTS Highlights of the Year 4 The Holy Cross Fund 6 Honor Roll of Donors 12 Parent Giving 64 Honor Roll of Friends 71 Corporate and Foundation Giving 75 Front and back cover photos by John Gillooly MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT New plans stand on a firm foundation Holy Cross is celebrating a year of impressive dedication and generosity. Contributions to the College made history with a record-breaking 17,227 alumni donors. In recognition of their love and enthusiasm for Holy Cross, 55.2 percent of our alumni made a gift to the College. This achievement keeps Holy Cross among a very small and elite group of colleges and universities that can claim such extraordinary alumni support. An anonymous donor provided a $1 million challenge gift in recognition of this goal, contributing to a total of $22.9 million in donations. In addition, we saw tremendous attendance at our annual dinner of the Holy Cross Leadership Council of New York, where we honored alumnus Stan Grayson ’72. Such devotion has helped make Holy Cross the premier Jesuit liberal arts college in America. In my first few months as president, I have been deeply moved by our caring and enthusiastic Holy Cross community. Our year-end statistics are impressive by any measure, upholding our reputation as one of the country’s most-loved colleges, based on our alumni giving rate. In this Report of Gifts, it is clear that the mission of Holy Cross is recognized and appreciated in heartfelt and tangible ways by its alumni, parents, students and friends.

  • " WE CAN NOW PROJECT..." ELECTION NIGHT in AMERICA By. Sean P Mccracken "CBS NEWS Now Projects...NBC NEWS Is Read
    " WE CAN NOW PROJECT..." ELECTION NIGHT IN AMERICA By. Sean P McCracken "CBS NEWS now projects...NBC NEWS is ready to declare ...ABC NEWS is now making a call in....CNN now estimates...declares...projects....calls...predicts...retracts..." We hear these few opening words and wait on the edges of our seats as the names and places which follow these familiar predicates make very well be those which tell us in the United States who will occupy the White House for the next four years. We hear the words, follow the talking-heads and read the ever changing scripts which scroll, flash or blink across our television screens. It is a ritual that has been repeated an-masse every four years since 1952...and for a select few, 1948. Since its earliest days, television has had a love affair with politics, albeit sometimes a strained one. From the first primitive experiments at the Republican National Convention in 1940, to the multi angled, figure laden, information over-loaded spectacles of today, the "happening" that unfolds every four years on the second Tuesday in November, known as "Election Night" still holds a special place in either our heart...or guts. Somehow, it still manages to keep us glued to our television for hours on end. This one night that rolls around every four years has "grown up" with many of us over the last 64 years. Staring off as little more than chalk boards, name plates and radio announcers plopped in front of large, monochromatic cameras that barely sent signals beyond the limits of New York City and gradually morphing into color-laden, graphic-filled, information packed, multi channel marathons that can be seen by virtually...and virtually seen by...almost any human on the planet.
