  • Changing the Game
    TERRIER PRIDE Boston University Athletics Development & Alumni Relations CHANGING THE GAME 595 Commonwealth Avenue, Suite 700 The Campaign for Athletics at Boston University West Entrance Boston, Massachusetts 02215 617-353-3008 [email protected] goterriers.com/changingthegame TO THE FRIENDS OF BU ATHLETICS: In the nearly century-long history of Boston University Athletics, there have been many extraordinary accomplishments and sensational moments, including five national championships in men’s hockey, two national championship games for women’s hockey (a mere eight years after the varsity program was founded), and seven appearances in the NCAA men’s basketball tourney, including a trip to the Elite Eight. Boston University has produced scores of Olympians, a member of baseball’s Hall of Fame, several NBA players, and over 60 members of the NHL—more than any other American university. In recent years, our programs have dominated their conferences. Boston University captured the America East Conference Commissioner’s Cup, awarded to the school with the strongest athletic program, seven years in a row and ten times in the last eleven years. But just as important as these athletic accomplishments are the achievements of our students in the classroom and the community. In the past three years, they have put in more than 10,000 hours of community service. The graduation rate for BU student-athletes is 95 percent, and their cumulative grade point average is over 3.1. In 2012, we set a new record, with ten student-athletes receiving the prestigious Scarlet Key honor—the University’s highest recognition of outstanding scholarship, leadership in student activities, and service—and this year, another eight were honored.

  • An Analysis of the American Outdoor Sport Facility: Developing an Ideal Type on the Evolution of Professional Baseball and Football Structures
    AN ANALYSIS OF THE AMERICAN OUTDOOR SPORT FACILITY: DEVELOPING AN IDEAL TYPE ON THE EVOLUTION OF PROFESSIONAL BASEBALL AND FOOTBALL STRUCTURES DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Chad S. Seifried, B.S., M.Ed. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2005 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Donna Pastore, Advisor Professor Melvin Adelman _________________________________ Professor Janet Fink Advisor College of Education Copyright by Chad Seifried 2005 ABSTRACT The purpose of this study is to analyze the physical layout of the American baseball and football professional sport facility from 1850 to present and design an ideal-type appropriate for its evolution. Specifically, this study attempts to establish a logical expansion and adaptation of Bale’s Four-Stage Ideal-type on the Evolution of the Modern English Soccer Stadium appropriate for the history of professional baseball and football and that predicts future changes in American sport facilities. In essence, it is the author’s intention to provide a more coherent and comprehensive account of the evolving professional baseball and football sport facility and where it appears to be headed. This investigation concludes eight stages exist concerning the evolution of the professional baseball and football sport facility. Stages one through four primarily appeared before the beginning of the 20th century and existed as temporary structures which were small and cheaply built. Stages five and six materialize as the first permanent professional baseball and football facilities. Stage seven surfaces as a multi-purpose facility which attempted to accommodate both professional football and baseball equally.

    COVER ANNUAL REPORT 2014-2015 INSIDE COVER TABLE OF CONTENTS LETTER FROM THE DIRECTOR 3 ABOUT US 4 STAFF 6 RESEARCH 10 PROGRAMMING 14 FACULTY 20 COURSES 22 STUDENTS 25 LETTER FROM THE DIRECTOR DEAR COLLEAGUES AND FRIENDS, Since 2012, Middle East Studies has been growing at a robust pace as it transitions from an undergraduate concentration into an endowed center with a reputation for innovative research, engaged programming, and rigorous learning. I am happy to report that the 2014–2015 academic year was pivotal for institutionalizing Middle East Studies at Brown on all three fronts. President Paxson has recognized this growth through a commitment to financially secure this program over the next five years. Middle East Studies is a thriving academic field, and peer universities have been busy strengthening their departments and centers. In this competitive environ- ment, it is significant that Middle East Studies at Brown is seen as a rising star. In large measure, this is due to our unique profile of thematically structured research and public engagement. Building on the passions of the faculty and the interests of the students, Middle East Studies organizes its activities around four themes that bridge the humanities and social sciences: Displacement and Partition, Islam- ic Humanities, Arts and Social Change, and Political Economy of Development. Highlights this year include the Iranian Underground Music Festival, which filled the RISD auditorium, and our Critical Conversations on Palestine-Israel, which fea- tured Hanan Ashrawi and Stephen Robert. Our growing reputation is also due to our pioneering annual symposia, such as New Directions in Palestinian Studies, Digital Islamic Humanities, and Engaged Scholarship, through which we explore new lines of academic inquiry, intervene in important public debates, and promote understanding.

  • 1 Cinematic Friendships: Intercessors, Collectives, Perturbations
    1 Cinematic Friendships: Intercessors, Collectives, Perturbations Independent and experimental cinema in Arabic-speaking countries, as elsewhere, often arises from affinities, shared interests, and temporary collaborations, character- ized by fluidity and adaptability. Friendship is a useful way to think about the flexible and sometimes nonlocal relationships in which experimenting cinema and media art get made, similar to the term hubs that Thomas Burkhalter uses to analyze the Beirut music scene’s local-transnational networks.1 This chapter cannot survey all the sites for training, production, exhibition, distri- bution, and archiving of experimental media art, in the broad sense this book under- stands, for there are so many organizations. Instead I present some case studies of cinematic friendships, grounded in concepts of self-organization, metastability, pertur- bation, and individuation. The guiding question is, “Looking at the various kinds of infrastructures for experiments in Arab cinema, how can we tell which ones best sup- port and sustain an experimental and creative practice?” It’s practically a truism that top-down institutional structures are bad for creativity. It’s also usually the case that funding comes with strings and imposes unwanted criteria on creative practices. But rather than reject institutions and outside influence out of hand, this chapter examines how creative practice individuates under the influence of these structures. Does it pro- duce more interesting connections? Does its output become more rewarding, more complex? Similarly, though I begin with the assumption, based on observation, that local organizations are best at nurturing creativity, I don’t want to fetishize the local. Friendship, an Emergent Form of Organization The most radical understandings of friendship cast it as a corrosive force.
