  • Review Dean’S Message
    SCHOOL OF BUSINESS YEAR IN REVIEW DEAN’S MESSAGE QSB’s Year in Review is more than just a chance to look back on the highlights of the previous 12 months. Each year since 2007, we have also shared details of financial support for the school, as well as donor vignettes that highlight the power of alumni giving. The 2013-2014 Year in Review includes another strong list of accomplishments to reflect on. You will also see that we have entered the final phase of our fundraising campaign. Thanks to the generosity of QSB’s alumni and friends, the “Invest in QSB” campaign has now reached $51 million of its goal of $65 million. Funds raised are being directed toward four strategic priorities: increasing student diversity in the Commerce program; establishing more scholarships for the full-time MBA program; attracting and retaining the best faculty; and further developing innovative teaching methods. I’m particularly excited about this last initiative, which will enable us to revolutionize a traditional teaching tool: the case study. The Living Case initiative was developed in response to a growing student demand for technology-based learning and classroom discussions that focus on current, real-time events, driven by easy and immediate access to information. Living cases build on the latest market developments, drawing on SEC filings, analyst and news reports, social media and company information, to foster an enhanced understanding of strategic and operational decision-making and integration of activities across entire business systems. The Living Case initiative is just one of the ways we are transforming the traditional classroom into a dynamic learning environment to provide our students with unparalleled opportunities.

  • War on the Air: CBC-TV and Canada's Military, 1952-1992 by Mallory
    War on the Air: CBC-TV and Canada’s Military, 19521992 by Mallory Schwartz Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Doctorate in Philosophy degree in History Department of History Faculty of Arts University of Ottawa © Mallory Schwartz, Ottawa, Canada, 2014 ii Abstract War on the Air: CBC-TV and Canada‘s Military, 19521992 Author: Mallory Schwartz Supervisor: Jeffrey A. Keshen From the earliest days of English-language Canadian Broadcasting Corporation television (CBC-TV), the military has been regularly featured on the news, public affairs, documentary, and drama programs. Little has been done to study these programs, despite calls for more research and many decades of work on the methods for the historical analysis of television. In addressing this gap, this thesis explores: how media representations of the military on CBC-TV (commemorative, history, public affairs and news programs) changed over time; what accounted for those changes; what they revealed about CBC-TV; and what they suggested about the way the military and its relationship with CBC-TV evolved. Through a material culture analysis of 245 programs/series about the Canadian military, veterans and defence issues that aired on CBC-TV over a 40-year period, beginning with its establishment in 1952, this thesis argues that the conditions surrounding each production were affected by a variety of factors, namely: (1) technology; (2) foreign broadcasters; (3) foreign sources of news; (4) the influence
