Students in the class of 2002 should consider this information carehlly Class of 2002 (Juniors): Predicting the junior class’s and begin to discuss housing options for next year with friends demand for campus housing is very difficult. Study abroad and family as soon as possible. We once again will face a acceptance, desire to live off-campus, apartment availability shortage of housing, which will specifically impact next year’s and cost, and pessimism about the availability of on-campus junior class. Fortunately, discussions have begun for the housing factor, at different times, into 1200 individuals’ feasibility of constructing of a new residence hall, which will desires for housing. However, based on the present class sizes ultimately relieve the shortage. and our experience last year, it is clear that we will be unable to meet the on-campus demand by juniors-to-be. The shortage Information for the Class of 2004, Class of 2003 and will be particularly acute with single rooms and fall-only Class of 2001 during 2000-2001 housing.

AMER 001 1-B ENVISION AMERICA: FROM COLUMBUS TO COLUMBINE Eric Rosenberg Block: B3 co-list: FAH 61/161

This class will serve two primary functions: to introduce students to the concept and practice of American Studies and to survey the history of visual culture in America from a variety of vantage points. Our assumption will be that the process of imaging America, in numerous formats (painting, photography, other print media-- includingjournalism--cinema) describes a difficult site of identity construction and social relation, sometimes unifying, other times divisive. The class will range across cultural manifestations of representation and consider the myriad visual voices that have described “American” experience from Columbus to the present. No prereq- u isites.

AMER 0091 INTEGRATIVE SEMINAR ASIAN AMERICAN HISTORY, IDENTITY, AND CONTEMPORARY ISSUES Jean Wu Block: Z*3 Asian Americans both have a long history in the United States and are one of the fastest growing racial minority groups in the nation. Why is it an American habit of mind to see Asian Americans as foreigners and aliens, not belonging the America, even ‘‘Un-American?’ What can we learn about America by studying the Asians in America. First we will look at Asian American history: their patterns of immigration; their roles in the early and continuing development of American society; roles in nature of their responses to that reception; their relationship to American foreign policy with regard to their countries of origin. Second we will examine some contem- porary issues for Asians in America: the process of developing Asian American culture, the development of identity and values , the sociology of contemporary Asian American communities, and the issues of race, class, and gender as they relate to the Asian American experience. Where appropriate, the course will relate the Asian experience in America to those of other American racial/ethnic groups.

AMER0192-B WRITINGINTHEBEATGENERATION Ronna Johnson Block: A3t

The Beat Fifties were “cool,” “hot,” and “mad”--but what did hipz,ters mean by that and what did it mean to LIFE Magazine and its Eisenhower era readers? Was “beat” really radical and, if so, for whom? How does it reprise and revise 19th-century American individualism and romanticism? Was “beat” an anticipation of the postmodern present? We will consider the impact of the bombing of Japan and the Nazi Holocaust, jazz. the McCarthy witch trials, Abstract Expressionism, cross- cultural racial influences, and the nascent civil rights movement in the writings of authors associated with the Beat Generation--not only th:: ersatz canonical trinity of Jack Kerouac, Allen Gisnberg, and William Burroughs, but also writers marginalized in Beat commentary, such as LeRoi Jones (Amiri Baraka), Ted Joans, Bob Kaufman, Joyce Johnson, Hettie Jones, and Diane di Prima.

From a larger perspective, the course examines how cultural meanings given to the category “Beat” function as strategies for the marginalization or dismissal of the writers and texts of this school. As we explore the literature, painting, and music of the Beat Generation, we will study figures and discourses used to effect social and political dissent, in particular those of addiction and madness, which slide and vary according to the race, gender, class, and sexual orientation of the trope’s user, to borrow a notion from Amiri Baraka. We will study the way these elements of identity play out in unprecedented ways that work to bring into being the politics and countercultural liberations of the 1960’s. We will read the writers against their own statements about writing, and against each other, with a view to assessing their formation of an identifiable school of writing. The course will attend to anticipations of he postmodern evident in the texts and in their contemporary reception. Topics will include: gender and race politics of the era and of the writing; canon formation; literary and sexual censorship; autobiography and the transformation of memoirs, journals, and letters in the production of literary texts.

AMEROl!Z?-EAMERICAN ENTREPRENEURSHIP BUILDING WEALTH FROM INNOVATION John Hodgman Block 92M2 Wed (3-:SO-6:20) Entrepreneurship is defined as the organization, management, and assumption of risk of a business enterprise. American entrepreneurship has been differentiated and characterized by individuals from diverse fortunes. This type of entrepreneurship is especially well developed in Massachusetts among the start-up companies developing products and services that exploit technological innovations.

The objectives of this course are: 1. To define and analyze the major elements of American entrepreneurship using several case studies as well as texts. 2. To develop an understanding of how American entrepreneurship is both shaped by and influences American culture and economics; and 3. To begin to understand the practice of entrepreneurshipby undertaking a team effort to identify an innovative new venture and to write a business plan that would attract the interest of potential investors.

Course Prerequisites: American Entrepreneurship is highly egalitarian. Individuals with both extensive business experience and education compte with those whose business preparation is quite modest. American entrepreneurs come from the full spectrum of economic backgrounds. Therefore, the course prerequisites are the following few:

1. The submission of a resume and a brief (1 page) statement of why this course interests you and what you could contribute to an entrepreneurial team. 2. The ability to use, or a specific plan to learn how to use, computer tools such as an electronic spreadsheet to prepare and simulate financial projections for the business plan. 3. The completion of sophomore requirements.

AMER0192-M THE MUSICAL FILM Jeanne Dillon and Isaac Saposnik Block:D3 The musical film enjoys the special privilege of interrupting the classic narrative chain of cause and effect with the lyrical expression of music: no one ever whines about the lack of realism in this genre. The U.S. films we will examine in depth in this course are arranged according to their fictive narrative time period: we will deal with issues of ethnicity, class, and gender in the early Depression of Penniesfrom Heaven, immediate post-World War 11 urban changes in New York, New York, pre- Castro Cuban immigration in The Mambo Kings, Camelot adolescent love in Dirty Dancing, Cold War paranoia in Little Shop of Horrors, the alternative drug culture of Hair, and ‘70s live-fast-and-die-young ethic in All the Jazz, African American breakout hip-hop in Krush Groove, and the seemingly permanent launch of the musical film into the metaphor of Desperately Seeking Susan. Much attention will also be given to film techniques such as camera movement and editing, that is, the way in which the medium of film has radically transformed the theatrical experience. This course is designed to be a dialogue from which you will gain a solid appreciation of the artistry of film. Assignments will be reflective of this, and will include four short but well-crafted papers and a group presentation on one of our nine films. Lastly, we will cover how Hollywood has subsumed other U.S. art forms and made its industry exert control over international film distribution. No prerequisites. Limited to 25 students.

AMER 0192-N ISSUES IN NATIVE AMERICAN STUDIES Joan Lester Block: 92H2 We will focus on the past and present experiences of native people in New England and Indian America as a means of examining some of the key issues relevant to Native American studies. We will consider topics such as stereotypes and misconceptions, history and ethnocentrism, spirituality as expressed by differences in world view; land claims and sovereignty; strategies for maintaining native identity in 2000; relations with archaeologists and anthropologists; the past and present role of education; pros and cons of gambling; and the role of museums as the keepers of cultural patrimony. This will not be a general survey course of a Source books of writings by Native Americans and presentations by at least five Native American guest speakers will form the basis of our learning. Classes will include lectures, active discussion, the guest speakers, field trips to local museums and attendance at a Pow Wow. Requirements include assigned readings, participation in class discussion, keeping a journal, one short writing assignment and 51 term paper or project. Preregistration limited to 20 students. 22 THE TUFTS DAILYNovember 17,1999
