This will be offered during the summer semester (end ofMay-end ofAugust; total of 14 weeks in Barbados). Once BITS is fully established, it will be financially self-sustaining. Initially, the funding will come through fees paid by student participants. Efforts will be made to identify sponsors who will contribute to the support of the Program. BITS will be managed by a collaborative committee, composed of McGill and Bellairs Research Institute staff, and administered through services provided by the staffofMacdonald Campus and ofBellairs Research Institute. BITS will be an activity-filled, hands-on, study experience for students with an interest in international studies with a Caribbean-flavour. This Program is course- and project-intensive but interdisciplinary in nature. The focus is on sustainable agri-food systems, including energy and nutrition in a tropical, tourist-intensive island setting. The BITS Field Semester integrates intensive course work with mentored group project work and contributes to the formation of professionals with international planning, managing, decision-making, and communication skills. This Program addresses a global need for experienced professionals capable of interacting with various levels of government, non-governmental organizations, and the private sector. It also provides an interdisciplinary living and learning environment; an exceptional opportunity for personal growth. Intellectual Focus The BITS Field Semester will have students in an exciting international location exposed to the complexities of "real-life" field situations. They will be absorbed in a semester of work equivalent to a semester at McGill University here in Montreal, but in a unique international setting. Groups of primarily Canadian students, from diverse upper-level backgrounds (final year students) in agricultural, biological, environmental, and nutritional sciences as well as the international development studies program, will be faced with planning, organizing, researching, .and completing both in-course projects and the 6-credit 'Barbados Interdisciplinary Project' in a third-world environment. Students willieam to work cohesively in groups to better understand and contribute to real issues. They wi1lleam to interact with local mentors to realize goals at the local, regional, national, or intemationallevel during these projects. Danielle Donnelly (Plant Science Dept.) 514-398-7856 [email protected] These student projects have the potential to alter the landscape and to educate large numbers of people. Examples of such projects involve participation in building 0 f annotated garden displays or creation of teaching materials used for touristic garden tours or museum exhibits visited by thousands oftourists annually. Examples where student project work could promote environmental remediation include participation in planting programs to control coastal erosion or increase and distribute endangered species such as mahogany. Some projects could contribute more immediately to improvements to the life or health oflocal islanders. Examples in this category include participation in projects related to home energy efficiency (better solar collectors, biodiesel refinement, etc.) or improved patient diets in hospitals and clinics. Please see attached list of proposed Project Sites. Rational for location in Barbados Bel/airs Research Insitute The presence of McGill's Bellairs Research Institute is one major draw for studies in Barbados. It would be highly beneficial to Bellairs to have an annual cohort of McGill students in residence during the summer. The Institute has recently expanded its living quarters for students, built a large classroom, and renovated its kitchens. Bellairs has a small library. It also has a new computer room with internet access. Bellairs can accommodate approx. 23-25 students enrolled in this Field Semester during the summer. Close Proximity and Interactions with the University ofthe West Indies (UWl) and National Conservation Commission (NCC) Bellairs Research Institute, in Holetown, is close to the University of the West Indies (UWI) campus at Cave Hill. UWI has an extensive library that McGill students can use. UWI students will be participating in the "Tropical Horticultural Ecology" course under a separate UWI course code (Horticulture, ECOL 2055). OWl staff will be lecturing and interacting with McGill teaching staff for the duration ofthis course. Every attempt will be made to encourage further collaborative teaching activities for the other two intensive courses and for the project. This will contribute to the internationalization experience and the sustainability of the program. Bellairs

He made the comments after touring COT Holdings at Newton Industrial Estate, Christ Church, stating that it is imperative that a way is found to reduce the cost of the inputs so that the products can be sold more competitively. “Some of the costs that you see on some of these items are not in sync with what they have had to pay, so that what you see reflected as the final price has no bearing to the ban that we have put on single use plastics.

  • Popular Culture and the Remapping of Barbadian Identity
    “In Plenty and In Time of Need”: Popular Culture and the Remapping of Barbadian Identity by Lia Tamar Bascomb A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in African American Studies in the Graduate Division of University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Leigh Raiford, Chair Professor Brandi Catanese Professor Nadia Ellis Professor Laura Pérez Spring 2013 “In Plenty and In Time of Need”: Popular Culture and the Remapping of Barbadian Identity © 2013 by Lia Tamar Bascomb 1 Abstract “In Plenty and In Time of Need”: Popular Culture and the Remapping of Barbadian Identity by Lia Tamar Bascomb Doctor of Philosophy in African American Studies University of California at Berkeley Professor Leigh Raiford, Chair This dissertation is a cultural history of Barbados since its 1966 independence. As a pivotal point in the Transatlantic Slave Trade of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, one of Britain’s most prized colonies well into the mid twentieth century, and, since 1966, one of the most stable postcolonial nation-states in the Western hemisphere, Barbados offers an extremely important and, yet, understudied site of world history. Barbadian identity stands at a crossroads where ideals of British respectability, African cultural retentions, U.S. commodity markets, and global economic flows meet. Focusing on the rise of Barbadian popular music, performance, and visual culture this dissertation demonstrates how the unique history of Barbados has contributed to complex relations of national, gendered, and sexual identities, and how these identities are represented and interpreted on a global stage. This project examines the relation between the global pop culture market, the Barbadian artists within it, and the goals and desires of Barbadian people over the past fifty years, ultimately positing that the popular culture market is a site for postcolonial identity formation.

  • I'm Swimming in the Turquoise Waters of a Secluded Beach on the West Coast of Barbados
    Photo by Susana Lay I'm swimming in the turquoise waters of a secluded beach on the west coast of Barbados. The sun is shimmering on the undulating water. I raise my eyes to see some boats drifting toward the horizon and wish I could pause this scene. From the shore, one of my friends waves me over as she makes a toast with a glass of wine. I submerge myself into the glassy waters and ask myself: If this is not paradise, then what is? Barbados has everything you need for an absolute disconnection: deep-rooted culture, fish fries and rum, and soca music, all against a backdrop best described as paradise. Where to Stay In Barbados you are never more than 12 miles from the sea. The best way to understand the island is to divide the map into five parts: the tranquil upper west coast, the tourist central south coast, the wild east coast bordering the Atlantic, the island's interior, and the capital of Bridgetown, or “Little England” as many call it. Depending on what you're looking for during your stay, you'll find Barbados has a lodging to fit every taste and budget. My friends and I decide to rent a three-bedroom house steps from the ocean, with a comfortable kitchen, a small plunge pool and a lovely deck overlooking the sea. There's no better way to mix with locals and have a real sense of place than by being part of a neighborhood, buying groceries like everyone else and waving hi to the waiters at the next-door restaurant (which, by the way, is called Fish Pot Restaurant and is a gourmet, upscale spot).
