  • Action on Education Friday, February 27 - Saturday, February 28, 2015 Diana Center, Barnard College
    The Scholar & Feminist Conference XL Action on Education Friday, February 27 - Saturday, February 28, 2015 Diana Center, Barnard College This conference was made possible by generous funding from the Virginia C. Gildersleeve Fund from the Barnard College Provost’s Office. Barnard was founded 125 years ago with the feminist mission of providing education to those who were excluded from major avenues of education. In honor of this legacy and the 40th anniversary of BCRW’s signature Scholar & Feminist Conference, this year’s conference builds a feminist framework for understanding the institutional, social, and pedagogical facets of teaching and learning. Scholars, activists, educators, and artists explore the K-12 landscape and higher education, investigating who can attain post-secondary education, under what circumstances, and at what cost. They discuss diverse feminist approaches to such topics as the Common Core standards, educational alternatives, the school-to-prison pipeline, teaching intersectional feminism, adjunct labor, sexual violence on campus, continuing racial and economic segregation within educational spaces, and feminist visions for a fair and just educational system. Friday, February 27 10:00 AM Welcome Janet Jakobsen and Tressie McMillan Cottom Event Oval, The Diana Center 10:30 AM Plenary Presentations The Octopus: Cognitive Capitalism and the University Natalia Cecire, Miriam Neptune, Nicci Yin It has often been remarked in recent years that we have entered a second Gilded Age of capitalist deregulation and socioeconomic inequality, with patterns of a hundred years ago repeating themselves. And while the rhetoric around the university is that it affords social mobility, as tuition and student debt have risen and affirmative action and need-blind admission have been revoked, it has become increasingly apparent that the university is an engine of that inequality.

  • Should There Be a Presumption Favoring Awards of Attorneyâ•Žs
    THE JOHN MARSHALL REVIEW OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY LAW SHOULD THERE BE A PRESUMPTION FAVORING AWARDS OF ATTORNEY’S FEES IN COPYRIGHT LITIGATION? WILLIAM T. MCGRATH ABSTRACT Section 505 of the Copyright Act allows courts to award attorney’s fees to the prevailing party in a copyright case. Almost twenty years ago, the Supreme Court in Fogerty resolved a split among the circuits over the interpretation of that statute. First, it held that courts should apply several nonexclusive factors when determining if the prevailing party, whether defendant or plaintiff, should be entitled to recover attorney’s fees. Second, the Court refused to apply a presumption that the prevailing party will automatically recover attorney’s fees, opting instead for the districts courts to apply “equitable discretion” in awarding fees. But in recent years, the Seventh Circuit has called for “presumptive entitlement” of attorney's fees to the prevailing party. It also isolated two factors as being primary in its analysis: the strength of the prevailing party's case and the amount of damages the prevailing party obtained. Because the prevailing defendant typically receives no monetary award, the Seventh Circuit's factors tend to favor the defendant. This paper points out the number of problems with such a presumption, including: 1) its conflicts with the statute; 2) conflicts with the principles of Fogerty; and 3) its chilling effect on plaintiffs with legitimate claims.

  • Miloš Forman and Saul Zaentz
    Lifetime Achievement Awards: Miloš Forman and Saul Zaentz By Ron Holloway Spring 2005 Issue of KINEMA THE FOLLOWING portraits of Miloš Forman and Saul Zaentz celebrate from a personal perspective the extraordinary film accomplishments by this masterful director-producer team on the occasion of Lifetime Achievement Awards given by Film By the Sea Festival in the Dutch seaside resort cities of Vlissingen and Scheveningen. Miloš Forman and Saul Zaentz, invited by festival director Leo Hannewijk and international co-director Steve Klain, were honoured as well by leading personalities of the Netherlands and the European Union. Indeed, this single event scored as one of the festival highlights of the year. Miloš Forman - Auditions and Adaptations My first meeting with Miloš Forman took place in April 1968 - a couple hours after I had been thrownoutof the Variety office on 43rd Street for daring to ”sign myself on” as a future correspondent. Togetridofme, Bob Landry, the benevolent desk editor, sent me over to the Chelsea Hotel in Lower Manhattan to interview Miloš Forman. ”Since you liked Loves of a Blonde that much,” he shouted after me, ”find out what he’s doing next.” Off I went - and came back to the office with a nifty little story about a nail-clipper. It neversawprint. ”Nobody in this place ever heard of a pince à ongles - so who the hell cares!” was the rebuff. A rather stiff kick in the butt for a fledgling. But the next day Landry phoned me to promise a job when I got toEurope. Looking back, I still think The Nail-Clipper (1968) is one of Miloš Forman’s better films.

Dear Academy Member Some years are more susceptible than others to characterization with a glib phrase. For some, for example, this will be "The Year the Oscars were Stolen." Those of us who were involved, of course, will always remember that week, and we'll probably even refer to the year that way. But the 12 months were too filled with expanded programs, new programs and planned programs for that one event to characterize it. It truly was a transitional year. The switch from the 1900s to the 2000s, which fell midway in our fiscal accounting, is an excellent metaphor for this Academy year, firmly grounded in a tradition of excellence but looking forward to a blossoming future. We began to see the effects of our improved financial position. We tripled the funding of our grants program, announced the creation of an Academy Film Scholars competition and launched the first of what will be an ongoing series of membership forums. Membership committees worked diligently throughout the year on questions of awards categori es and branch makeup, while the staff searched for physical space into which some of the expanded and new programs can move.

  • The Bohemian Horizon: 21St-Century Little Magazines and the Limits of the Countercultural Artist-Activist
    The Bohemian Horizon: 21st-Century Little Magazines and the Limits of the Countercultural Artist-Activist Travis Mushett Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy under the Executive Committee of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2016 ©2016 Travis Mushett All rights reserved ABSTRACT The Bohemian Horizon: 21st-Century Little Magazines and the Limits of the Countercultural Artist-Activist Travis Mushett This dissertation examines the emergence of a cohort of independent literary, intellectual, and political publications—“little magazines”—in New York City over the past decade. Helmed by web-savvy young editors, these publications have cultivated formidable reputations by grasping and capitalizing on a constellation of economic, political, and technological developments. The little magazines understand themselves as a radical alternative both to a journalistic trend toward facile, easily digestible content and to the perceived insularity and exclusivity of academic discourse. However, the bohemian tradition in which they operate predisposes them toward an insularity of their own. Their particular web of allusions, codes, and prerequisite knowledge can render them esoteric beyond the borders of a specific subculture and, in so doing, curtail their political potency and reproduce systems of privilege. This dissertation explores the tensions and limitations of the bohemian artist-activist ideal, and locates instances in which little magazines were able to successfully
