Sports, Music, Movies & More London’s Influence on Pop Culture: Sports, Music, Movies & More Syllabus and Policy Handout Cooperative Center for Study Abroad (CCSA) London Mid-Summer Program – July 7, 2018—July 22, 2018 Instructor: Barry Gresham, Austin Peay State University London is one of the World’s most incredible cities and one that everyone should have on their bucket list to visit. I had that magical experience last winter by teaching for CCSA and visiting London for the first time. I can’t wait to visit again and explore more of the city as we trace London’s impactful influence on Pop Culture with this course. I have spent over 30 years in sports broadcasting and being able to walk out on the pitch at Wembley Stadium and tour the grounds at Wimbledon is something that I will never forget. I have also been a musician since my youth and London’s musical history is unrivaled. This will be an experience that you will remember for the rest of your life and I look forward to guiding you on this journey as we visit the great city of London.

Wembley Stadium: Tour - http://www.wembleystadium.com/Wembley-Tours.aspx Wimbledon: History - https://www.wimbledon.com/en_GB/atoz/history.html Debentures - https://www.wimbledon.com/en_GB/atoz/debentures.html Broadcast Rights - http://www.espn.com/sports/tennis/news/story?id=6739076 Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park: Guided Tour - http://www.toursof2012sites.com/ Olympic Stadium - https://stadiumtourbookings.london-stadium.com/booking/default.htm BT Sport Current Broadcast Rights - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BT_Sport Royal Albert Hall: History - https://www.royalalberthall.com/about-the-hall/our-history/ Victoria & Albert Museum: History - https://www.vam.ac.uk/info/about-us/ London Film Museum Overview - http://londonfilmmuseum.com/ History of James Bond Films - http://www.007.com/ Warner Brothers Studios The Making of Harry Potter - https://www.wbstudiotour.co.uk/our-history Additional Costs The majority of required course activities will be covered by the course fees already paid. Students should budget an additional $75-$100 for required activities that are not covered by course fees. This additional amount will be used for admissions or travel fares. Course Requirements All students are expected to write their responses in a manner that conforms to normal expectations of a university classroom situation. This means that attention must be paid to details, content, organization, paragraph coherence, paragraph unity, spelling, grammar and punctuation. Please proofread your writing very carefully before it is turned in. You will have approximately TBA weeks to complete everything upon your return to the United States. Read all articles and essays that will be provided prior to departure to help prepare you for each tour. Research and provide three historical facts on a minimum of three of the venues that we plan to visit. Be prepared to discuss your findings in our first class meeting upon arrival in London. Students are required to attend each class meeting as well as other meetings designed to address course requirements and answer questions pertaining to the course. Students must participate in all field trips, museum tours, excursions etc. Attendance is mandatory at all CCSA official events on the itinerary. You will be docked points for unexcused absences (this will be determined at the discretion of the instructor). Attend the following tours (attendance mandatory): Wembley Stadium Wimbledon Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park & Stadium BT Sport Royal Albert Hall London Rock Tour Victoria & Albert Museum (music exhibit) London Film Museum Warner Brothers Studio (Harry Potter Tour) The dates and times of the tours will be located in your final itinerary. The final itinerary will not be ready until a few days before departure. Check your email regularly until we depart for London. You must maintain a daily journal of your daily experiences in England which answers the following simple questions: a. What did I see and do today? b. What did I learn from my experience? c. What aspect of British culture was visible today? The journal entries should indicate a time and date on each page. Please use a new page for a new date in the journal entry. Students’ “personalities” should emerge from the records of their experiences instead of being a dry log. Journal entries are more meaningful when they are colorful and detailed. Flesh out your entries. Further, the student should attempt to glean insights and meaning from their daily experiences. Answer the following as part of your entry: How was my experience on X or Y or Z day in England enriched by my London or out-of-London experience on that day? You will provide two or three short essays (based on upper or lower division course) that will cover topics that we discussed during the trip or venues that we visited in London. These papers will be short (500-600 words) and will be due after the return to the US. All students will write one long final paper that will analyze the impact the British and the city of London have had on popular culture historically and in the present time. Source requirements and length will be based on whether the course taken is upper or lower division. An exam will be administered after the trip is completed to cover the information gathered while in London and also from additional assigned readings. Attendance Policy & Grades This course is, first and foremost, a study abroad program. Attendance will be taken at all class meetings.

  • Aug 02Nd Bible Reading: Isaiah 61
    The Benefice of Upper Wensleydale Trinity 8 Edition 20 ‘Church in the Home’ Sunday August 02nd– Saturday August 08th From the Vicarage The word ‘Praise’ appears hundreds of times in the Bible and we read of the call to praise God throughout its pages. The psalmists praised God in the good times and in the bad. Praise is certainly about thanking God for all he has done, is doing and will do, but it goes deeper than that. Praise is about declaring the truth of who God is and rejoicing in that knowledge and that is something that we are all called to do. Paul reminds us that praising God changes us. Philippians 4:4-7 It recalibrates the way we look at the world, changes our experience of it and our ministry within it. As we return to our buildings this Sunday for public worship for the first time in 20 weeks, there is much to praise God for. Some things, however, will be a little different as we manage the space and the way we do things; e.g. restrictions on us singing and sharing the chalice in communion, but I’m sure that our ability and desire to gather together to praise God as community will override all of these issues. I am extremely grateful to the teams of folks who have worked so hard in preparing the buildings on your behalf to ensure that they are clean and safe. In recognition of this Visit Britain have awarded us with the ‘We’re Good to Go’ accreditation Sadly, our family services will have to continue on line for a little while longer as the resources and materials that we use in our times together have had to be removed.

Getting to Wembley When flying to London there are a number of options, before booking make sure to include the time and additional cost of trains etc. Full in- formation on getting to Wembley can be found at www.wembleystadium. com/gettingtowembley.

  • Statement Regarding the Proposed Stamford Bridge Redevelopment
    Statement regarding the proposed Stamford Bridge Redevelopment The Chelsea Supporters’ Trust representative was pleased to attend the recent Fans Forum meeting which focussed on the proposed redevelopment of Stamford Bridge. Questions regarding plans for the much heralded redevelopment of Stamford Bridge were put to members of the Club’s Board and the design team responsible for the redevelopment of the new stadium. The Chelsea Supporters’ Trust are delighted that the plans for the new stadium seem to be progressing well and that there were satisfactory responses to many of the concerns and issues that supporters have raised. However, the recent issues with the transition of West Ham United from the Boleyn Ground to the London Stadium serve as a timely reminder about potential problems when moving stadium and increasing capacity. It appears that many of the issues West Ham are facing might have been resolved had dialogue been held with supporters before the move. It should be noted that West Ham are one of the only Premier League clubs who do not have a Supporters’ Trust. We firmly believe that consulting with Chelsea supporters and their representatives prior to the re- development of Stamford Bridge (and temporary move whilst this happens) will result in potential problems being avoided. For this reason and acting on our mandate, the Chelsea Supporters’ Trust will continue to press the Club to introduce ‘Safe Standing’ areas within the new stadium so that those who wish to stand whilst attending Chelsea matches at Stamford Bridge are able to do so. The ‘rail seating’ system advocated by the ‘Safe Standing campaign’ has, this season, been introduced by Celtic Football Club at their Parkhead ground and has proved, beyond any doubt, that it is indeed a safe way of enabling supporters to stand whilst enjoying top-flight professional football matches.
