Sethna, The University of West Georgia 76 Applying an Existential Lens When Teaching Today’s Students about the Holocaust Paulette Harris Tevin Middleton Cynthia Stocum Samuel Hardy Augusta University Abstract This paper explores ever-changing needs of rising generations comprised currently of school-age children and adolescents. As generations evolve, so do their characteristics, desires, and requirements. The inspirational book, Man’s Search for Meaning, by Viktor Frankl chronicles his own experiences as a Holocaust concentration camp prisoner and proposes that humans can find meaning in their lives, even in the face of adversity. This paper examines how the concept of finding meaning in one’s life can be applied towards newer generations exploring their identities. Components of the philosophy, existentialism, applied in academia can foster identity development, which educators can cultivate in the classroom. Specifically, Frankl’s idea of logotherapy used in educational settings promotes critical thinking and autonomy for students. Educators must use alternate methods of teaching Holocaust curricula, so that Frankl’s book can later be introduced and influence students’ journeys in finding themselves and meaning in their lives, despite any suffering that might occur. Keywords: Viktor Frankl, Holocaust, education, Gen Z, existentialism, logotherapy, pedagogical strategies Hammill (2005) stated that for the first time in American history, schools are employing more than three generations of educators in the workplace (as cited in Seipert & Baghurst, 2014), together with another generation of students. Each of these generations has different learning experiences and values. This article centers on how educators can use logotherapy, developed by Viktor Frankl and related methods to reach today’s students when teaching about the Holocaust. Frankl introduces his theory of logotherapy in his book titled Man’s Search for Meaning. This is a powerful book that details his experiences as a concentration camp survivor and describes factors that led him to the origination of logotherapy. Due to various systems of values, outlooks, and experiences, educators today need to comprehend and adjust their approach to meet the needs of their students. Given that Man’s Search for Meaning chronicles Frankl’s experiences during the Holocaust, this article focuses on why educators must reconsider ways to teach children and adolescents about the Holocaust. Topics of discussion herein include: information about Frankl, his book, and his theory of logotherapy; how logotherapy interventions can be in the classroom; and Holocaust education instruction. The Psychiatrist: Victor Frankl Frankl was born March 26, 1905 in Vienna, Austria. He studied psychiatry and neurology, focusing on the study of suicide and depression (Frankl, 2006). Frankl headed the suicide prevention department of the General Hospital in Vienna. In 1942, Frankl, his parents, wife, and brother were arrested and sent to the Theresienstadt concentration camp. Over time, Frankl was interned at four concentration camps, including Auschwitz. During his confinement in the camps, Frankl worked endlessly to prevent suicide attempts of fellow prisoners. He also assisted his fellow prisoners who suffered severe depression by 1 encouraging them to reflect on positive images, memories, and thoughts. Frankl managed to help those imprisoned as he suffered with them. His last camp was liberated in 1945, and soon he discovered that all his immediate family had died, except for his sister, who immigrated to Australia (Frankl, 2006). The Book: Man’s Search for Meaning Frankl authored the book, Man’s Search for Meaning, which detailed his experiences in concentration camps during the Holocaust. Over 12 million copies of his book have been sold (Frankl, 2006). In an editorial review in 1959, Carl Rogers stated that Man’s Search for Meaning was “one of the most outstanding contributions in psychological thought in the last 50 years.” Frankl's memoir describes life in Nazi death camps and his teachings for spiritual survival. Stemming from Frankl’s own experiences and those from his patients, he purports that suffering is inevitable. However, Frankl believed that humans have the freedom to choose the manner in which they cope with such suffering; giving it meaning, and then prevailing with enriched purpose (Frankl, 2006). His theory of logotherapy is rooted in enriched and meaningful purposes. Frankl’s Theory: Logotherapy Frankl coined the term logotherapy by using the Greek word logos, translated as meaning (Stepura, 2017). Contrary to Freud and Adler, Frankl did not believe that human’s primary drive in life was pleasure or power, respectively, but the discovery and pursuit of what a person finds meaningful; humans should discover significance in the very act of living (Frankl, 2006). The essence of Frankl’s doctrine of logotherapy was to focus on curing oneself by leading one’s soul to find meaning in life. Overall, Frankl felt individuals must see life as meaningful despite surrounding circumstances. He believed that the ultimate purpose in life was to help others find meaning in their lives (Frankl, 2006). Frankl (2006) quoted Friedrich Nietzsche: “He who has a why to live for can bear almost any how” (p. 104). This quote emphasizes Frankl’s belief that even during the most severe situations, humans can survive knowing that there is meaning to life. Frankl contended that prisoners who gave up their lives died less from lack of food or medicine and more from lack of hope. He cited three sources for meaning: work, love, and courage. To better illustrate these sources, Frankl (2006) stated: Logotherapy teaches that there are three main avenues which one arrives at a meaningful life. The first is by creating a work or by doing a deed. The second is by experiencing something or encountering someone. In other words, meaning can be found not only in work but also in love. Most important, however, is the third avenue to meaning in life: even the helpless victim of a hopeless situation facing a fate he cannot change, may rise above himself, may grow beyond himself and by so doing, change himself. He may turn a personal tragedy into a triumph. (Frankl, 2006, pp. 146-147). Frankl insisted that individuals possess the freedom to choose how they respond to any situation. He believed that humans cannot

  • Sexing the Mueller Report
    SEXING THE MUELLER REPORT Ruthann Robson* I. INTRODUCTION Sexual indiscretion, misconduct, and deceit percolate throughout the extensive 2019 Report On The Investigation Into Russian Interference In the 2016 Presidential Election—known as the Mueller Report.1 President Trump’s sexual behaviors are certainly not the focus of the Mueller Report, which resulted from the Acting Attorney General’s appointment of Robert S. Mueller, III as Special Counsel for the United States Department of Justice to investigate “any links and/or coordination between the Russian government and individuals associated with the campaign of President Donald Trump,” and “any matters that arose or may arise directly from the investigation.”2 Volume I of the Mueller Report addresses Russian interference with the 2016 election and any Trump campaign links in approximately 200 pages. Volume II of the Mueller Report, which is slightly longer at 241 pages, focuses on the question of whether the president obstructed justice in connection with the Russia-related investigations, including presidential actions related to the Special Counsel’s investigation itself. Given its charge, it is both predictable and understandable that the Mueller Report only obliquely addresses President Trump’s sexual * © 2020, All rights Reserved.

Now, the relationship between Michael Cohen and Keith Davidson is drawing public scrutiny as federal authorities investigating Cohen examine payments made to women whose stories could have damaged Donald Trump's presidential campaign. Davidson is cooperating with the probe and has provided investigators with "certain limited electronic information," according to the lawyer's spokesman. Cohen, Trump's longtime adviser, and Davidson, a Los Angeles lawyer, have crossed paths at least five times in the past two years. In the most recent instance, Cohen collected a fee said to be hundreds of thousands of dollars in a deal Davidson helped orchestrate. New attorneys for Davidson's former clients, Stormy Daniels and Karen McDougal, both of whom allege they had affairs with Trump years ago, say the relationship between Cohen and Davidson has seemed too cozy. "This is supposed to be an adversarial process," said Daniels' attorney, Michael Avenatti. "These guys should not be in the same bedroom, let alone the same bed." Cohen did not respond to requests for comment. Nor did his lawyers Brent Blakely and Stephen Ryan. In a recent interview with The Washington Post, Davidson rejected the suggestion that his dealings with Cohen were in any way improper, saying they have a "purely professional" relationship and did not meet in person until early 2018.

Ms. Hicks stands by her testimony. She had no knowledge of, and was not involved in any conversations about, "hush money" payments to Stormy Daniels during the campaign. The information she provided to the Committee was truthful to the best of her knowledge and recollection. Before we address the specific points in your Jetter, some background is important. Your letter resulted from the release on July 18, 2019 of search warrant affidavits in the Michael Cohen matter.

  • We Understand That the U.S. Department of Labor Announced a Proposed Rule That Would “Update and Clarify” the Department of Labor’S Investment Duties Regulation
    July 26, 2020 Office of Regulations and Interpretations Employee Benefits Security Administration, Room N-5655, U.S. Department of Labor 200 Constitution Avenue NW Washington, DC 20210 Attention: Financial Factors in Selecting Plan Investments Proposed Regulation. Document Citation: 85 FR 39113 Page: 39113-39128 (16 pages) CFR: 29 CFR 2550 RIN: 1210-AB95 Document Number: 2020-13705 Dear Sir/Madam: We understand that the U.S. Department of Labor announced a proposed rule that would “update and clarify” the Department of Labor’s investment duties regulation. According to the news release issued announcing this proposed rule, “Private employer-sponsored retirement plans are not vehicles for furthering social goals or policy objectives that are not in the financial interest of the plan,” said Secretary of Labor Eugene Scalia. “Rather, ERISA plans should be managed with unwavering focus on a single, very important social goal: providing for the retirement security of American workers.” We are writing to provide comments on this proposed rule. Background The core idea behind the work of William Michael Cunningham at Creative Investment Research is the recognition that mainstream market-based solutions do not maximize social return. This leads to an underappreciation for the value of human life. We develop market-based innovations to counter this. The elevation of “Chicago-school” economic theories has led to a focus on celebrity and money worship. These magnify and worsen the misallocation of economic resources identified above. Our development of social return investment technologies and the subsequent rise of social entrepreneurs are the methods we have used in this effort. We have radically augmented the development of new investment theories that are the key, we believe, to a higher level of human development.

  • AMI's Alleged Extortion of Amazon's Jeff Bezos
    Berkeley Center for Law and Business University of California, Berkeley School of Law Boalt Hall #7200 Berkeley, CA 94720-7220 AMI’s Alleged Extortion of Amazon’s Jeff Bezos By: Kelsey Miller, J.D. Candidate 2021 | February 8, 2019 On January 9, Jeff and MacKenzie Bezos announced their divorce on Twitter. The next day, the National Enquirer published a story detailing the Amazon CEO’s extramarital affair with Lauren Sánchez. On February 6, the National Enquirer then sent an email to Mr. Bezos, allegedly extorting him by threatening to publish several private photographs they had acquired if Mr. Bezos did not publicly state that he had “no knowledge or basis for suggesting that AMI’s coverage was politically motivated or influenced by political forces.” In an astonishing move, Mr. Bezos then revealed both the existence of the photos and the alleged extortion in a personal blog post, discrediting AMI’s value proposition that investors would question Bezos’ judgment as a result of the photos’ existence. Prosecutors are currently investigating the alleged extortion, which complicates matters for American Media, Inc., which owns the National Enquirer and is owned by David Pecker. During the 2016 election cycle, Pecker became infamous for using “catch and kill” techniques to buy and bury stories alleging everything from sexual misconduct to illicit affairs between President Trump and a number of women, at least once at the direction of Michael Cohen. After determining that such payments by AMI violated campaign finance regulations, Federal Prosecutors for the Southern District of New York and AMI reached a non-prosecution agreement this past September, which required AMI to admit that it had made the payments to “influence the election” in exchange for non-prosecution so long as AMI committed “no crimes whatsoever” for three years.

Davidson was asked to provide “certain limited electronic information” for the probe led by prosecutors in the Southern District of New York, spokesman Dave Wedge said. “He has done so and will continue to cooperate to the fullest extent possible under the law,” Wedge said in a statement Friday. Shortly before the 2016 election, Davidson negotiated a confidentiality agreement with Cohen under which porn star Stormy Daniels was paid $130,000. Davidson also represented Karen McDougal, a Playboy centerfold, in the $150,000 agreement she struck in August 2016 with the National Enquirer’s parent company, American Media Inc., for the rights to her story. AMI never published the story. Both Daniels and McDougal have filed lawsuits to get out of their non-disclosure agreements. Earlier this week, McDougal settled with AMI — whose chief executive, David Pecker, is a friend of Trump — and is no longer bound by her contract with the tabloid publisher. FBI agents raided Cohen’s Manhattan office last week, as well as his home and a hotel room.

  • September 18, 2018 Democracy Reform Task Force Rep
    � -.· ,.. ..7 1, . � � SEPTEMBER 18, 2018 DEMOCRACY REFORM TASK FORCE REP. JOHN SARBANES, CHAIR President Donald J. Trump campaigned on a promise to “drain the swamp” in Washington. He vowed that as President he would take steps to break the “cycle of corruption” and end “decades of special interest dealing,” 1 and he pledged to aggressively pursue meaningful reforms to improve transparency and accountability in government. 2 But President Trump has broken this promise to the American people. Specifically, the Trump Administration has: • Made a Mockery of Ethics Law and Regulation • Promoted a Culture of Secrecy in the Executive Branch • Stacked His Cabinet with Big Money Campaign Donors • Installed a Special-Interest Revolving Door into the Trump White House • Put Big Money Ahead of the Public Interest • Turned the Presidency into a Profit-Making Enterprise • Pursued Public Policy for Trump’s Personal Benefit • Raided the Treasury to Pay for Vacation & Private Business Promotion As President Trump marks his 600th day in office, this report – the sixth edition in the Democracy Reform Task Force’s series of “100 Ways” oversight reports – lists 600 ways that the Trump Administration has broken its campaign promises. Here are all of the examples. 1 Donald J. Trump Campaign. “Trump Pledged to Drain the Swamp and Impose Congressional Term Limits.” October 18, 2016. 2 Ibid President Trump’s “Ethics” Executive Order was supposed to “drain the swamp.” As this exhaustive list shows, the Executive Order was just another example of President Trump’s tendency to overpromise and underdeliver. We have continued to witness the Administration openly flouting ethics regulations and conflict-of-interest law to an unprecedented degree.

For more information, please contact [email protected]. CONSUMER CHOICE AS THE ULTIMATE GOAL OF ANTITRUST Robert H. Lande" The role of antitrust can best be understood in terms of a fundamental standard-the standard of consumer choice. The antitrust laws are intended to ensure that the marketplace remains competitive so that worthwhile options are produced and made available to consumers, and this range of options is not to be significantly impaired or distorted by anticompetitive practices.' The antitrust laws thus ensure that the economy responds to the aggregate signals of consumer demand, rather than to government directives or the preferences of individual businesses. An optimal level of consumer choice, which has elsewhere been termed 2 "consumer sovereignty" is the state of affairs where the consumer has the power to define his or her own wants and the ability to satisfy these wants at competitive prices.3 The concept of consumer choice even embodies some implicit notions about the rights of the individual in the broader society; it is implicitly part of the Western world's response to Marxism and the other totalitarianisms of the Twentieth Century.
