In Xinjiang the international lingua franca English, the national official language Mandarin Chinese, and major Turkic languages such as Uyghur and Kazakh interact and compete for linguistic prestige in different social scenarios. The power relations between the Turkic languages, including the Uyghur language, and Mandarin Chinese is one in which minority languages are surrounded by a dominant state language supported through various institutions such as school and mass media. The much greater symbolic capital that the “legitimate language” Mandarin Chinese carries enables its native speakers to have easier access than the native Turkic speakers to jobs in the labor market. Therefore, many Uyghur parents face the dilemma of choosing between maintaining their cultural and linguistic identity and making their children more socioeconomically mobile. The entry of the global language English and the recent capitalist development in China has led to English education becoming market-oriented and commodified, which has further complicated the linguistic picture in Xinjiang.

Inouye, Ph.D. Committee Member Vice Provost for Graduate Studies UTAH STATE UNIVERSITY Logan, Utah 2019 Copyright © Terri Wesemann 2019 All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT Metal Storytellers: Reflections of War Culture in Silverplate B-29 Nose Art From the 509th Composite Group by Terri D. Wesemann, Master of Arts Utah State University, 2019 Committee Chair: Randy Williams, MS Department: English Most people are familiar with the Enola Gay—the B-29 that dropped Little Boy, the first atomic bomb, over the city of Hiroshima, Japan on August 6, 1945. Less known are the fifteen Silverplate B-29 airplanes that trained for the mission, that were named and later adorned with nose art. However, in recorded history, the atomic mission overshadowed the occupational folklore of this group. Because the abundance of planes were scrapped in the decade after World War II and most WWII veterans have passed on, all that remains of their occupational folklore are photographs, oral and written histories, some books, and two iconic airplanes in museum exhibits. Yet, the public’s infatuation and curiosity with nose art keeps the tradition alive. The purpose of my graduate project and internship with the Hill Aerospace Museum was to collaborate on a 60-foot exhibit that analyzes the humanizing aspects of the Silverplate B-29 nose art from the 509th Composite Group and show how nose art functioned in three ways.

  • This One Time, at Rock Camp… Rock N’ Roll Fantasy Camp Wants to Make Your Air-Guitar Dreams Come True for Only $6,000 – Groupies Not Included
    Playboy Magazine By David Peisner This One Time, At Rock Camp… Rock n’ Roll Fantasy Camp wants to make your air-guitar dreams come true for only $6,000 – groupies not included I have convinced myself that the final night of Rock n’ Roll Fantasy Camp is no big deal, no difference from putting on a skit with my cabin mates when I was nine. But this isn’t the stage at Camp Winnawoka, it’s the Bottom Line, a world-famous club in Manhattan. And this isn’t a marshmallow on a stick in my hand; it’s a bass guitar, on which I am expected shortly to accompany camp counselor Roger Daltrey. Yes, that Roger Daltrey. Probably best not to dwell on the fact that I’d never picked up a bass before three days ago. “Hellooo, New York City!” the emcee howls, raising an expectant cheer from the standing-room only crowd. “Are you ready?” For those about to rock, we beg your forgiveness. Stratocasters and fanny packs Rock n’ Roll Fantasy Camp is the brainchild of concert promoter David Fishof. Decades ago, baseball fantasy camps proved that rich, paunchy sports fans would pay top dollar to play catch with rich, paunchy ex-athletes. Fishof applied the idea to music, creating a place where people could “eat, sleep and live rock and roll.” The first RRFC, held in 1997 in Miami, lost money, but Fishof revived the camp in Los Angeles last year, and now he’s brought it to New York City. While financial riches have so far proved elusive, the rock-camp concept has found its way onto pop culture’s ultimate barometer: The Simpsons.
