  • Vänskap Värden Vandel
    Vänskap värden vandel Avvikelser och återhämtningsstrategier hos Göteborgs första generation ungdomsnarkomaner Christer Ahlman INSTITUTIONEN FÖR SOCIALT ARBETE Vänskap, värden, vandel De ungdomar som introducerade den tunga narkotikan i 1950-talets Göteborg rekryterades i begynnelsen ur konstnärliga och bohemiska kretsar. Ganska snart sökte sig ett antal unga män ur stadens kriminella sällskap också till de nya drogerna. Ett antal unga prostituerade kvinnor visade också tidigt intresse. Från att under 1950-talet ha varit en ganska lekfull företeelse över- gick verksamheten under nästa decennium i former som hade förmåga att sluka tillvaron. Under 1960-talets sista år övergick den färgspra- kande hippiekulturens drogmarknad och konsumtionsformer i en mer hårdför, ensartad och kriminaliserad missbrukssituation. I detta skede hade ett antal pionjärer och veteraner hunnit bli så psykiskt och fysiskt nerkörda att de nödgades se sig om efter en mer anständig livsstil. Denna avhandling beskriver de gängkulturer och samhällsförhållan- den som var rådande då Göteborgs första generation ungdomsnarko- maner intog Avenyn och flackade runt på Götaplatsen och Skanstorget. Ett antal ungdomar som efter något tiotal år som injektionsnarkomaner lyckades komma på fötter och ordnade sig ett anständigt liv har under 1980-talet och 2000-talet skildrat händelseutvecklingen med hjälp av sina egna livsberättelser.

One view would argue that they apply some universal principle or model, that helps them handle the many contingencies of a situation. But architects themselves often claim, on the contrary, that their work grows out of the situation genuinely. Rarely do they make claims for universal validity of their achievements. The situational character of their work therefore poses the question of how architects get familiarized with a situation. This study shows that the architect’s grasp of the situation may fruitfully be viewed as memory, retrieved inventively through sketching and other imaginative practices, for- ming an art of recollection. keywords: metonomy, realism, workplace, architecture, sketching, heuristic, contexture, memory, rhetoric, contiguity issn 0346-718x issn 1650-6340, 2010:01 isbn 978-91-7385-359-0 The report is written in Swedish.

  • Transforming Lives
    Brooklyn College Foundation Annual Report 2007–2008 Transforming Lives The First Step The doors to Brooklyn College are the doors to opportunity. Compared with other institutions of higher education, a great many of our students shoulder substantial responsibilities, and many are the first in their family to attend college. Diverse in background, interests, and ambition, they share the certainty that higher education is the way to a productive and rewarding future. For many, that future will be secured with the help of the Brooklyn College Foundation Dear Friends of Brooklyn College For students—past and present—Brooklyn College stands as a gateway to a rewarding life. They come because they want to become effective leaders in their chosen profession and engaged citizens of the world. They come because they have heard of our commitment to academic quality and to helping them reach their goals. This commitment is at the heart of who we are and what we do. We have held firm to this principle throughout my presidency and, as I leave Brooklyn College this summer, I am especially proud of what we have done together to give it life and to sustain it. Last fall, we admitted a freshman class larger and better than the year before and we were joined by forty new faculty members, bringing the number of scholars and artists we have recruited over the last nine years to 273, more than half the teaching faculty and more than we appointed in the previous three decades. We also welcomed a new Provost, Dr. William A. Tramontano, who brings proven leadership in initiating and implementing new academic programs.

Vi uppmärksammar också att två nordiska dagstidningar firar 150-års- jubileum i år – Dagens Nyheter i Sverige och Hufvudstadsbladet i Finland, som båda kom med sina första nummer i december 1864.

  • The Brooklyn College Foundation Annual Report, 2004–2005
    The Brooklyn College Foundation Annual Report, 2004–2005 On the cover: Architectural plan for realization of the campus design envisioned by Brooklyn College’s founding architect, Randolph Evans, in 1935. The plan proposes new entrances to Roosevelt and James Halls, a new West Quad to mirror the existing East Quad, and a new building to anchor the entire campus west of Bedford Avenue. The West Quad Project is one of several ambitious plans the College has launched to build a modern, student-centered campus conducive to learning and scholarship. Dear Friends of Brooklyn College At Brooklyn College in the last year, we have been busy building— not only the physical campus, but also the educational environment that best encourages vigorous learning and scholarship. Our priorities result largely from initiatives we launched during the first five years of my presidency—and particularly within the last twelve months. These include expanding the campus, renewing the natural sciences, and broadening our fiscal base. The physical transformation of the campus continues apace. We have doubled the size of the Morton and Angela Topfer Library Café, and it is open again 24/7. Over the summer, we renovated and modernized eleven lecture halls in Ingersoll Hall. We move ahead with the West Quad Project, laying out a new quadrangle and pouring the foundation for a new building. We have begun a major rebuilding of our science facilities and our science curriculum. The project will proceed in two stages. First, Roosevelt Hall will be transformed into a science building; then we will renovate Ingersoll Hall. The science faculty meanwhile has been discussing and defining the shape science teaching and research should take at the College.
