A Message from the President We have established research programs on all seven continents with 57 research projects outside the United States. ESF faculty members are working in the Ross Sea, Mongolia, Afghanistan, Greenland, China and the Galapagos. ESF draws from the world, too. We help educate graduate students from 35 countries and we have hosted professional executives and governmental officials from India, China and Germany with whom we trade our knowledge. Our success has been recognized by U.S. News & World Report, Washington Monthly, Forbes.com and the Sierra Club. Demand for our programs is rising as our applica- tions increase; in turn, our offerings to our students expand in both academics and the area of student life, where our rich partner- ship with Syracuse University provides an array of activities for our students to choose among.

    American Jewish History A QIJilrteriY P11bllcatlon of the Amerloan J.ewlsh Hlstorloal SOciety Two Jewish Lawyers Named Lollis* JONATHAN D. SARNA The year r856 was a vintage year for brilliant Jewish lawyers named Louis. On November 13, r8s6, Louis Brandeis was born in Louisville, Kentucky. One month later, on December 14, r856, Louis Marshall was born in Syracuse, New York. Louis and Louis were both first-generation Americans, born of central European Jewish parents. They both compiled stellar academic records. They both went on to have a profound affect on American law. Both were considered for seats on the U.S. Supreme Court, although only one of them made it.' And both became eminent leaders in American Jewish life. Yet while both men earned enormous respect within the Jewish and general communities, they never became friends and rarely worked to­ gether. They differed religiously, philosophically, and politically. They approached Judaism, America, and even the law itself from sharply different perspectives. The parents of Louis Brandeis and Louis Marshall arrived in America at approximately the same time in the middle of the nineteenth century.' Brandeis' parents hailed from Prague, Marshall's father from Baden and his mother from Wiimemberg. The two fathers had experienced prejudice and privation in central Europe that precipitated their emigration. Adolph Brandeis, who grew up in an urban area and studied at the Technical ,. An earlier version of this paper was delivered as the 1006 B. G. Rudolph Lecture in Judaic Studies at Syracuse University, commemorating the rsorh anniversary of the birth of Louis Marshall.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This was produced from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure you of complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark it is an indication that the film inspector noticed either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, or duplicate copy. Unless we meant to delete copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed, you will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photo­ graphed the photographer has followed a definite method in “sectioning” the material. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. For any illustrations that cannot be reproduced satisfactorily by xerography, photographic prints can be purchased at additional cost and tipped into your xerographic copy.

  • Hbcuse: Space-Making and Identity Performance on SU Campus
    HBCuse: Space-Making and Identity Performance on SU Campus Giselle Bookal Maxwell School | Geography Major Maxwell School | Environment and Society Minor Renee Crown Honors Program Class of 2020 1 Abstract This paper aims to explore the ways in which the performance of black racial identity manifests within the context of a predominantly white institution (PWI). I will analyze the ways in which hidden history and collective memory collude to create spaces that mitigate how identity is performed. I utilize a two-tiered approach in conducting this research in which I trace the forgotten histories of Syracuse University’s marginalized black student community and the current landscape of the HBCuse social grouping, primarily by tracing student organization involvement. I will explore how identity-performance within the restrictive climate of a PWI creates opportunities for autonomous space-making while also universalizing racial identity within these spaces and their interconnected framework. I will employ the concept of ‘blanket blackness’, a place-bound identity formulated by the selective incorporation of multiplicitous black sociocultural phenomenon that collude within a predominantly white space. I argue that this blanket blackness both provides a space for the holistic expression of black racial identity and excludes those who do not fall under its rigid stratifications. By utilizing a geographical approach that considers the importance of space, history, memory, identity and power within these developments, I aim to uncover the ways in which black students on this campus have successfully created enriching and substantial spaces for creative, personal and professional growth on a campus whose history has hinged upon accommodating us, not accepting us.

    Researching FALL 2012 LAW Vol 23 | No 4 Henry Ford’s War on Jews and the Legal Battle Against Hate Speech RESEARCHING LAW Henry Ford’s War on Jews and the Legal Battle Against Hate Speech What is the relationship between the right to free speech and self- expression under the First Amendment and the government’s authority to limit speech it deems to be “hateful”? What is the relationship between hate speech that is directed at an individual and speech that targets the group to which that individual belongs? How have these relationships evolved during the last century, a time of great social change and intense civil rights activism?
