  • The Fall of Wonder Woman Ahmed Bhuiyan, Independent Researcher, Bangladesh the Asian Conference on Arts
    Diminished Power: The Fall of Wonder Woman Ahmed Bhuiyan, Independent Researcher, Bangladesh The Asian Conference on Arts & Humanities 2015 Official Conference Proceedings Abstract One of the most recognized characters that has become a part of the pantheon of pop- culture is Wonder Woman. Ever since she debuted in 1941, Wonder Woman has been established as one of the most familiar feminist icons today. However, one of the issues that this paper contends is that this her categorization as a feminist icon is incorrect. This question of her status is important when taking into account the recent position that Wonder Woman has taken in the DC Comics Universe. Ever since it had been decided to reset the status quo of the characters from DC Comics in 2011, the character has suffered the most from the changes made. No longer can Wonder Woman be seen as the same independent heroine as before, instead she has become diminished in status and stature thanks to the revamp on her character. This paper analyzes and discusses the diminishing power base of the character of Wonder Woman, shifting the dynamic of being a representative of feminism to essentially becoming a run-of-the-mill heroine. iafor The International Academic Forum www.iafor.org One of comics’ oldest and most enduring characters, Wonder Woman, celebrates her seventy fifth anniversary next year. She has been continuously published in comic book form for over seven decades, an achievement that can be shared with only a few other iconic heroes, such as Batman and Superman. Her greatest accomplishment though is becoming a part of the pop-culture collective consciousness and serving as a role model for the feminist movement.

  • Why No Wonder Woman?
    Why No Wonder Woman? A REPORT ON THE HISTORY OF WONDER WOMAN AND A CALL TO ACTION!! Created for Wonder Woman Fans Everywhere Introduction by Jacki Zehner with Report Written by Laura Moore April 15th, 2013 Wonder Woman - p. 2 April 15th, 2013 AN INTRODUCTION AND FRAMING “The destiny of the world is determined less by battles that are lost and won than by the stories it loves and believes in” – Harold Goddard. I believe in the story of Wonder Woman. I always have. Not the literal baby being made from clay story, but the metaphorical one. I believe in a story where a woman is the hero and not the victim. I believe in a story where a woman is strong and not weak. Where a woman can fall in love with a man, but she doesnʼt need a man. Where a woman can stand on her own two feet. And above all else, I believe in a story where a woman has superpowers that she uses to help others, and yes, I believe that a woman can help save the world. “Wonder Woman was created as a distinctly feminist role model whose mission was to bring the Amazon ideals of love, peace, and sexual equality to ʻa world torn by the hatred of men.ʼ”1 While the story of Wonder Woman began back in 1941, I did not discover her until much later, and my introduction didnʼt come at the hands of comic books. Instead, when I was a little girl I used to watch the television show starring Lynda Carter, and the animated television series, Super Friends.

  • Trinity College Bulletin, November 1951
    1-1RINITY COLLEGE ALUMNI NEWS ISSUE NOVEMBER 1951 HARTFORD CONNECTICUT Bulletin President's Page To Trinity Alumni: By this time we are well into the one hundred twenty-ninth academic year of the College. In a few more days, half of the 1951 football season will have gone by, the Sophomore Hop will have been held or thrown (annually, the proper verb becomes apparent only in retrospect ), and even the hardiest of our undergraduates will have formed the conclusion that the climate of Hartford in late October calls for clothing a little more substantial than summer sports jackets. Text books have all been purchased, R.O.T.C. uniforms have come or are arriving, no more changing of courses is permitted and classes have thus settled down to something like a normal routine, and Dean Clarke's very commendable social program for the Freshmen has shown the Class of 1955 the road to N'ohhampton. The fraternities have chosen their pledges, and both groups are justifiably happy about the re­ sults. For reasons that evade my comprehension, students still ride in automobiles from the houses on Vernon Street to the Chapel and to classes. In short, the old order has not changed so very much since the days of many of you. There is, however, one distinctive aspect of the fall of 1951 which all of you, if you come here, would perceive and, I am sure, regret. We do not have enough dormitory space. There are 922 undergraduates registered at the College this year, 614 of whom are in residence on the campus.

    COLLEGE OF MANAGEMENT IN TRENČÍN EUROPEAN TRINITY MODEL Bachelor Thesis Study program: Knowledge Management Workplace: College of Management, Trenčín Thesis advisor: Matthias C. Suthe Consultant: Trenčín 2009 Lukáš Arbet ABSTRAKT Téma: EUROPEAN TRINITY MODEL Kľúčové slová: Európska Únia, Superštát, Dvojkomorový, Budúcnosť Študent: Lukáš Arbet Vedúci BP: Matthias C. Suthe Od doby, keď Európania nasledovali víziu jednoty a spolupráce v povojnovej Európe dvadsiateho storočia, uplynulo už mnoho rokov a Európa zaznamenala vývoj smerom k jednote. Vtedajšie Európske Spoločenstvo vývojom a dosiahlo stav súčasný, keď sa transformovalo do nadnárodného celku – Európskej Únie. Únia stále expanduje a pokrýva vačšinu kontinentu, kde sa snaží realizovať koncept jednoty a neustáleho rozvoja. Nový model navrhuje expanziu k tomu čo Európska Únia, i keď len v nepriamo, reprezentuje už teraz – superštát. Angažovanosť jednotlivých entít v procese rozhodovania a riešenia európskych záležitostí nedáva priestor na určenie, kto skutočne stojí na čele tohto giganta. Ak sa nájdu vedúce osobnosti, často sa ich pomenovania duplikujú a tým len mätú bežné obyvateľstvo, ktoré ťažko učuje, kto stojí na čele tohto nadnárodného celku. Inštitúcie a ich podriadené celky, vykonávajú viac koordinačné a poradné úlohy, ako svoj skutočný potencíal spravovania Európskych záležitostí. Nový model navrhuje zmenu ustanovenia Európskej Únie na federálnu úniu s dvojkomorovým parlamentým systémom. Za dolnú komoru parlamentu sa navrhuje ponechať Európsky Parlament s jeho priamo volenými poslancami. Ako doplňujúci orgán je ustanovená druhá komora parlamentu, Rada Ministrov, ktorej je uznané rovnocenné postavenie. Doplňujúcim celkom je výsadne postavenie Európskej Komisie predkladať návrhy, avšak samotná komisia je modifikovaná len na administratíny orgán, bez monopolu na tvorbu legislatívy. Výkonnej moci sa ujíma Európska Rada na čele s Prezidentom a súdna moc ostáva v rukách Európskeho súdneho dvora.

In researching and writing about the history of Williamstown, we understand that we have not been subject to the same biases that have impacted minority groups for hundreds of years. While we cannot fully understand the extent to which racism has affected individuals and families from our own experience, we hope that our efforts to describe the events of the past pay tribute to the pain and suffering that many people of color have had to endure. Overview of Project This report was conducted as a semester-long project for Williams College's Environmental Planning Workshop (ENVI 302). This class is one of the required courses for seniors to complete to fulfill their Environmental Studies Major and/or Concentration (minor). The professor for this course is Sarah Gardner. Professor Gardner connected clients from the Williamstown community with Williams College seniors taking this course. Students worked with various clients on unique planning projects. 3 Table of Contents Introduction...........................................................................................4-6
