With every edition the Journal grows, encompassing both more humanities disci- plines, and facets of research within those disciplines. For instance, in this year’s edition you will read on topics as diverse as metaphysics, music, the Vietnam War and Marxism, gender issues and politics. This diversity is itself a reflection of both the astounding breadth of what we generalize as “the humanities” as well as a reflection of the depth of research taking place at Otterbein College. It is the sincere hope of those involved with the Journal that its contin- ued growth and diversity is an exponential trend. In the past, these introductions have some times taken on outside issues that directly reflect on the humanities and scholarship in general. Last year, the issue of intellectual honesty was dealt with at length. One prevalent theme this year is that of being conscious of one’s lifestyle and the world around oneself. As we are get- ting well into the 21st century, concerns over the environment and the economy are becoming more and more urgent and in need of consideration. Land is becoming a more precious resource as increasing talk about consumption and land development takes form in the theory of the “tragedy of the commons.” This topic is addressed in two of our essays and the relevance of this concern is brought to the attention of aegis 2006 the readers of Aegis. Whether the environmental situation is viewed from a more bureaucratic standpoint with solutions surrounding government intervention and regulations, or a more individual standpoint (like the man of the wilderness in one of the featured book reviews, The Last American Man) where solutions are as simple as people taking it upon themselves to examine their lifestyles and level of consumption, the concern is legitimate. The 21st century has brought on many events and changes and we must now consciously address them. Growing demands for resources and increased land use to meet the comfortable lifestyle so many Americans value is putting a strain on the environment and eventually we will be faced with the consequences of the indulgence and consumption we enjoy presently. Globalization is quickly spreading, the world is becoming more and more connected, yet America, at this point, is isolated when it comes to environmental concerns because, luckily, we are at this time generally not experiencing the problems that the rest of the world is begin- ning to address. By looking at the economy and being mindful of our own lifestyles, we can independently make our own changes to begin to address these concerns. An easy place to start would be our own day to day practices. Our daily impact could easily be reduced if the one place we all have in common, the campus of Otterbein College, began a campus-wide recycling program. Also, simple and easy independent choices could take form in what we decide to purchase. Examining the environmental consequences of the food and materials that we purchase could reduce the strain on the environment. No one wants to give up the modern conveniences we enjoy, but we can reduce our consumption and join the world in an effort to save the one thing that we all rely on and value. While Otterbein and many other cities, towns and colleges have made great strides in placing emphasis on the issue of conservation, and humankind’s relation to its external world, there is, as always, a danger of both counter-arguments against the conservation-environmen- talist position (as seen with the recent publishing of many books that supposedly “debunk” extreme global climate shift) and of those involved in the movement becoming complacent or apathetic. While it is impossible for a journal such as this to directly combat these claims with quantitative data, it is no less important for those in the humanities to face this issue with all of the tools at their disposal. It is only through a combination of the humanities and science, with their divergent lenses of examination and interpretation, that enough pressure and change can be implemented to cause action and permanent shifts in the ego-centric anti-environmen- tal mindset of many people. While the issue of conservation and the environment is by no means the only “theme” of this edition of Aegis, we claim that it is an answer to the question raised by the journal’s first editors—Ashar Foley and Teresa Moore—in the first editors introduction of Aegis —“why Aegis?” Aegis exists not only to put on display the finest minds Otterbein has to offer, or to display the vitality and urgency of the study of the humanities, it exists to show that the humanities exists as a necessary field of research that in and of itself can raise, question and aegis 2007 promote problems, thoughts and plans for applicable action in the real world.

Stereotypes and Economic Conditions of Poor Whites in the U.S. "White trash" is, in many ways, the white Other. When we think about race in the U.S., oftentimes we find ourselves constrained by cat- egories we've inherited from a kind of essentialist multiculturalism, or what we call "vulgar multiculturalism."^ Vulgar multiculturalism holds that racial and ethic groups are "authentically" and essentially differ- ent from each other, and that racism is a one-way street: it proceeds out of whiteness to subjugate non-whiteness, so that all racists are white and all victims of racism are non-white. Critical multiculturalism, as it has been articulated by theorists such as those in the Chicago Cultural Studies Group, is one example of a multiculturalism which tries to com- plicate and trouble the dogmatic ways vulgar multiculturalism has un- derstood race, gender, and class identities. "White trash" identity is one we believe a critical multiculturalism should address in order to further its project of re-examining the relationships between identity and social power. Unlike the "whiteness" of vulgar multiculturalism, the whiteness of "white trash" signals something other than privilege and social power.

  • Good White People
    1 Dumping on White Trash Etiquette, Abjection, and Radical Inclusion The trailer park has become . the only acceptable place to dump one’s racist inclinations. —Jim Goad, The Redneck Manifesto One February weekend in 2002, critical whiteness scholar and English professor Mike Hill infiltrated the fifth American Renaissance confer‑ ence. The theme for that year’s meeting was “In Defense of Western Man,” and the three hundred conference attendees—all apparently white men—were gathered in the name of “white genetic solidarity.”1 In past years, the conference had focused on non‑European immigrants and citizens of color in the United States. In 2002, its emphasis shifted to “the vicissitudes of white identity as it seemed to disappear before our eyes,” with the goal of bringing about “the racial awakening of an Anglocentric nation in crisis.”2 Hill, a white man who edited Whiteness: A Critical Reader in 1997, attended the meeting with permission; he was given an invitation when he truthfully lied that he wrote on whiteness.3 Unbeknownst to the American Renaissance organizers and attendees, Hill was at the conference as a spy on behalf of The Journal of Blacks in Higher Education. His task was to write “a sort of antiracist exposé” for the journal, which he did for their Spring 2002 issue.4 The American Renaissance Web site labels its approach to race as one of “race real‑ ism,” and in noninflammatory ways explains that “race is an important aspect of individual and group identity. Race and racial conflict are at the heart of the most serious challenges the Western World faces in the 21st century.

Shepherd Dean, Scripps College of Communication ii ABSTRACT PFAHL, MICHAEL E., Ph.D., August 2008, Communication Studies An Exploration of Organizational Anticipatory Socialization via Virtual Communities of Teachers of English as a Foreign Language in Thailand (251 pp.) Director of Dissertation: Daniel P. Modaff Traditionally, organizational scholars examining the socialization process new organizational members experience have done so from a post-hire viewpoint. Generally, these studies examined traditional, post-hire corporate contexts with full-time employees who have already gone through some level of organizational socialization. While technology in relation to socialization is also discussed, it is often done as part of post- hire, organizationally-driven socialization tactics and many studies investigating the impact of technology rarely venture outside of this boundary. This study examined the pre-hire socialization process and the impact of the virtual world, specifically virtual communities, on the process. Qualitative interviews grounded in two research questions explored the use of virtual communities by teachers of English as a Foreign Language classes in Thailand.

  • The Social Life of Slurs
    The Social Life of Slurs Geoff Nunberg School of Information, UC Berkeley Jan. 22, 2016 To appear in Daniel Fogal, Daniel Harris, and Matt Moss (eds.) (2017): New Work on Speech Acts (Oxford, UK: Oxford University Press). Chaque mot a son histoire. —Jules Gilliéron A Philological Caution The Emergence of Slurs We wear two hats when we talk about slurs, as engaged citizens and as scholars of language. The words had very little theoretical interest for philosophy or linguistic semantics before they took on a symbolic role in the culture wars that broke out in and around the academy in the 1980s.1 But once scholars’ attention was drawn to the topic, they began to discern connections to familiar problems in meta-ethics, semantics, and the philosophy of language. The apparent dual nature of the words—they seem both to describe and to evaluate or express— seemed to make them an excellent test bed for investigations of non-truth-conditional aspects of meaning, of certain types of moral language, of Fregean “coloring,” and of hybrid or “thick” terms, among other things. There are some writers who take slurs purely as a topical jumping-off point for addressing those issues and don’t make any explicit effort to bring their discussions back to the social questions that drew scholars’ attention to the words in the first place. But most seem to feel that their research ought to have some significance beyond the confines of the common room. That double perspective can leave us a little wall-eyed, as we try to track slurs as both a social and linguistic phenomenon.

    1.04cm spine for 208pg on 90g eco paper ISSN 0258-6150 FAO 171 FORESTRY 171 PAPER FAO FORESTRY PAPER 171 Edible insects Edible insects Future prospects for food and feed security Future prospects for food and feed security Edible insects have always been a part of human diets, but in some societies there remains a degree of disdain Edible insects: future prospects for food and feed security and disgust for their consumption. Although the majority of consumed insects are gathered in forest habitats, mass-rearing systems are being developed in many countries. Insects offer a significant opportunity to merge traditional knowledge and modern science to improve human food security worldwide. This publication describes the contribution of insects to food security and examines future prospects for raising insects at a commercial scale to improve food and feed production, diversify diets, and support livelihoods in both developing and developed countries. It shows the many traditional and potential new uses of insects for direct human consumption and the opportunities for and constraints to farming them for food and feed. It examines the body of research on issues such as insect nutrition and food safety, the use of insects as animal feed, and the processing and preservation of insects and their products. It highlights the need to develop a regulatory framework to govern the use of insects for food security. And it presents case studies and examples from around the world. Edible insects are a promising alternative to the conventional production of meat, either for direct human consumption or for indirect use as feedstock.

    Mobilizing for Action A Report to Help Create Culturally Responsive Pathways for Isolated Immigrant Seniors December, 2008 Mobilizing for Action was written by Luis Alberto D’Elia, Project Coordinator with the Edmonton Seniors Coordinating Council (ESCC), with the exception of the 2008 Edmonton Cultural Profiles section which was written by community writers listed below. Assistance was provided by ESCC Executive Director Sheila Hallett and Communications Coordinator Rich Gossen. Funding for this project was granted by the New Horizons for Seniors Program and the City of Edmonton Community Services, 2008. The project was guided by a team of community partners: Yvonne Chiu of the Multicultural Health Brokers Cooperative Maureen Gross and Jill Chesley of Catholic Social Services Nasreen Omar of the University of Alberta Hospital Lucenia Ortiz of the Royal Alexandra Hospital Judy Sillito of the Edmonton Mennonite Centre for Newcomers Brenda Wong of Community Services, City of Edmonton 2008 Cultural Profile Writers: Irene Dormitorio, Judy Sachs, Zaw Moe, Mana Ali, Nasreen Omar, Mieun Kwak, Nhan Lu, Susana Runge, Firozeh Penhani, Sabah Tahir, Joseph Luri, Nora Abou-Absi, Serawit Dafla Cultural Profile Editors: Michael Tonderai Kariwo, Nasreen Omar and Rich Gossen Note: Much of the research on immigrant seniors has failed to recognize ethnicity or culture as relevant variables in understanding and addressing their needs. This review is based on the recognition that diversity is not only enriching but also it poses challenges, and these can be adequately addressed only if efforts are based on a thorough and respectful understanding of immigrant seniors’ cultural and ethnic identity. Attempts will be made to keep this information current on the ESCC website.
