Networkmagazine-Summer2010.Pdf Letter from the Dean Dear alumni and friends, For many decades, College of Education faculty, students, staff and alumni have been ac- tively involved in improving education in Kentucky and around the world – but never before like now. In February 2010, the College launched a bold new initiative, the Kentucky P20 Inno- vation Lab (http://p20lab.org/), designed to transform, not just incrementally change, our current education system from preschool through graduate education with a focus on per- sonalized learning and world-class knowledge and skills. To ensure that every child – from early childhood through adolescence into adulthood – is well-prepared for life, meaningful work and citizenship, we know that all parts of the educational system must work together. UK President Lee T. Todd, Jr. believes “the P20 Lab will help ensure that our campus break- throughs hit the ground in Kentucky and change lives in every community. It will provide a unique vehicle to deliver cutting-edge discoveries from UK’s 17 colleges into schools and communities across the Commonwealth.” In this issue, we are delighted to showcase individuals and groups who help us bring inno- vation and breakthroughs into our collective educational future, such as COST: Consortium for Overseas Student Teaching; nationally-approved programs such as school psychology; new college and department leaders; award-winning students, faculty and alumni; and the first Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) Education symposium sup- ported jointly by the colleges of Education, Arts & Sciences and Engineering. You will discover how our efforts are attracting outstanding new educators and clinical profes- sionals when you visit the College’s new website: http://education.uky.edu/. The site offers a fresh look and feel that captures the visionary mission of the College and our vital work in the community – through unique videos, interactive graphics, faculty pages, news stories and more. We use the term “community” broadly referring to our local, national and global communi- ties and believe our greatest assets are our future, current and former students. We invite you to join with us in shaping the nature of the educational experience for future generations. Join with us in building strong relationships among students, educators and community – ones that foster cultural competence and promote mutual trust and respect, and above all, ones that make a difference.

Chronicling the trials and tribulations of a fictional group of survivors within a horror-fueled post-apocalyptic America, The Walking Dead follows in a long line of zombie- centered texts that reveal some of society’s deepest anxieties: the threat of overwhelming disease, the fall of societal infrastructure, and the breakdown of ideologies that we live our daily lives by.

As the popularity of this masculinity show continues to rise, many viewers have demonstrated a willingness to praise Male Fantasies TWD without carefully examining its narrative commitments to violence or to ghouls attack media critics who point out negative elements at work. My critique contends critique that the series is decidedly fascistic in nature, and celebratory of fascist masculin- The Walking Dead ity as the key to surviving an apocalyptic situation. I analyse the show through a comparison with the literature of the Freikorps as detailed by Klaus Theweleit’s study of fascism, Male Fantasies ([1977] 1987, [1978] 1989). I examine in detail the prevalence of the ‘soldier male’ in TWD, the limited roles for women, and the representation of the ghoulish undead, drawing upon Theweleit and related scholar- ship on fascist aesthetics. It is not the corpses that this man loves; he loves his own life. But he loves it … for its ability to survive.
