    MAKING IT: SUCCESS, MEDIOCRITY, AND FAILURE IN THE KITCHEN A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE DIVISION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF HAWAI’I AT MANOA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY IN SOCIOLOGY APRIL 2021 By Ellen T. Meiser Dissertation Committee: Dr. David T. Johnson, Chairperson Dr. Jennifer Darrah Dr. Manfred Steger Dr. Wei Zhang Dr. Cathryn Clayton Keywords: Success, Mediocrity, Failure, Culinary Industry, Chefs, Cooking, Emotions, Culture, Embodiment, Kitchen Capital 1 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This dissertation would not exist if it were not for the guidance, encouragement, and intelligence of my advisor, Dr. David T. Johnson. Mahalo nui loa for the many hours you’ve spent talking with me, reading over drafts, and sending me articles and books that you thought I’d find helpful. I hope one day to be as fantastic a mentor as you have been to me. I also want to thank my committee members Dr. Jennifer Darrah, Dr. Manfred Steger, Dr. Wei Zhang, and Dr. Cathryn Clayton for their great minds, great support, and great suggestions throughout my dissertation process. Much of the joy of graduate school stems from the relationships you form with classmates. So, thank you to my colleagues who offered their eyes to look over drafts, ears to listen to meandering talks, and words of advice. Last, I want to thank my family: my mom and dad, whose pride in me has never wavered and whose love is unending. My brother, who informed me at the age of 11 that I was pronouncing “culinary” incorrectly—leading to me tell everyone I was going to attend “coronary school” to become a chef—and who almost 20 years later let me stay with him as I conducted interviews in New York.

  • Presenter Biographies
    PRESENTER BIOGRAPHIES MATTHEW ACCARRINO ‘98 is the nationally recognized chef of SPQR in San Francisco, CA. Born in the Midwest and raised on the East Coast, he moved west to California in 2007. His unique culinary style draws inspiration from his Italian heritage, personal experiences, and classical training with some of America’s best chefs. He couples this style with an embrace of California ingredients and a strong belief in direct sourcing and even producing some of his own ingredients. The result is an intensely personal cuisine that is both technically polished and soulful; and which has garnered praise from publications such as Food & Wine, Bon Appétit, Saveur, The Wall Street Journal, and more. Under his direction, the restaurant was recognized with a Michelin star in the 2013 and 2014 guides. Matt has been named a StarChefs 2010 Rising Star and in 2011 he took top honors at San Francisco’s Cochon 555 competition. Matt has been nominated three consecutive times by the James Beard Foundation as a semi-finalist for Best Chef: West. Food & Wine named him People’s Best Chef California in 2013 and editorially selected him for the prestigious Best New Chef award in 2014.

The national celebrations have turned into a water festival. What is the connection between the two? Nothing! It is shameful that we celebrated in this fashion a national occasion in which many families remem- ber their loved ones who sacrificed their lives for the nation to protect its land. But now the memory of those heroic martyrs no longer exists, except for reports about water guns, quarrels and the terrible congestion in the streets. The question remains - what is the wisdom of all this? And what have we learned and how much have we lost? We have lost the opportunity to teach our kids The new Jaber Al Ahmad Cultural Center (JACC) seen at night. — Photo by Ghazi Qaffaf / KUNA why we are celebrating the national and liberation days.

Senior Theses, Trinity College, Hartford, CT 2014. Trinity College Digital Repository, https://digitalrepository.trincoll.edu/theses/359 How the Lack of Copyright Protections for Fashion Designs Affects Innovation in the Fashion Industry By Serena Elavia A Thesis Submitted to the Department of Economics of Trinity College in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Bachelor of Arts Degree Economics 498-99 April 10, 2014 1 Abstract The fashion industry is a multibillion dollar industry that continues to grow. Currently, there is an ongoing debate on whether or not fashion designs should be able to receive copyright protections due to a phenomenon called fast fashion. Fast fashion is when low end designers copy high end designs from both the spring and fall Fashion Weeks, produce the copied product quickly and sell before the high end good is released to stores. Copying in the fashion industry is possible because there are no copyright protections granted to fashion designs. With recent legislation introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives proposing copyright protection for high end designs, the low end designers of the industry are threatened. Many fast fashion retailers (Zara, H&M, Forever 21) would go out of business, which would destroy thousands of jobs and drastically reduce the number of options consumers have to shop at.
