With considerable investment in new technologies, we have significantly enhanced the college’s infrastructure, with smart classrooms, new science labs and a new student center all enhancing our efficiency. As we’ve outlined in previous editions of Educator, to increase capacity we’ve also made significant investments in recruiting new, distinguished faculty and staff. Having achieved both greater efficiency and capacity, the college’s main focus has turned to creating new programming that produces even better teachers and better educations for this nation’s school children. We highlighted two such programs in New Programs to Meet New the last issue: TUteach, which recruits science and math students to obtain Educational Challenges secondary teaching certificates along with their BS degrees, and E=mc2, which trains mid-career and early-retiree math and science professionals to become middle school teachers in high-need schools.

  • 3-18. Anglo-American Relations in Palestine 1919-1925
    Journal of American Studies of Turkey 5 (1997) : 3-18. Anglo-American Relations in Palestine 1919-1925: An Experiment in Realpolitik Stuart Knee Sometime before 11 November 1918, the Ottoman Empire expired. Happily, Europe’s “sick man” did not die unattended; a host of kin survived to divide the legacy. Among the prospective inheritors were two giants, the United States and Great Britain. For Britain, her driving force was the maintenance of Empire. For the United States, mixed motives of idealism, business enterprise and preservation of historic isolationist prerogatives resulted in the development of a policy that was often hesitant and myopic. A spirit of internationalism did not prevail in the case of either nation and, as a result, Middle East problems were exacerbated, as is demonstrated in this article. During the incipient stages of the Versailles negotiations, one American writer assessed his country’s future role in the Near and Middle East in glowing terms. He spoke of the United States as “an ideal custodian of the Dardanelles, a preserver of autonomy for ... Arabia and Persia. Her [America’s] vast Jewish population preeminently fits her to protect Palestine” (“Part of the United States” 305-306). (Note 1) Ostensibly, this was the impression Woodrow Wilson was attempting to create, but seeds of discontent, already sewn in the war, indicated a poor harvest for American idealism. Wilson, the idealist, revealed a pragmatic bent during the 1916 Presidential election campaign when his attitude on Palestine changed from disinterest to vocal pro- Zionism (Eisner 1). The change of heart was a maneuver calculated to please a numerically small but active circle of Democratic Zionists led by Supreme Court Justice Louis Brandeis, who was ably assisted by Harvard lawyer Felix Frankfurter, Judge Julian Mack and social justice activist Rabbi Stephen S.

  • John Huston Finley Was Spread Upon the Permanent Records of the Faculty
    At a meeting of the FACULTY OF ARTS AND SCIENCES on April 11, 2000, the following tribute to the life and service of the late John Huston Finley was spread upon the permanent records of the Faculty. JOHN HUSTON FINLEY BORN: February 11, 1904 DIED: June 11, 1995 On a festive occasion marking John Finley’s retirement as Master of Eliot House in 1968, an admiring colleague evoked the mythical image of Cheiron, the wise centaur who was teacher to the greatest men of heroic times, even to Achilles. Cheiron was different from other centaurs because he was son of Kronos, ruler of the Golden Age. In his own way, Finley’s father came from another such Golden Age: he was editor of The New York Times in the era of Woodrow Wilson. John Huston Finley, Jr. was born in New York City on February 11, 1904. He attended Albany Academy and the Phillips Exeter Academy before receiving the bachelor’s degree from Harvard in 1925. As an undergraduate, he was President of the Signet Society and the Advocate. He received the Ph.D. degree in 1933, again from Harvard. That same year, he was invited to join the Harvard faculty. John Finley’s own Golden Age at Harvard was inaugurated in 1942, when at the age of 38 he became Master of Eliot House. In 1945, he became the Eliot Professor of Greek Literature. Within the next few years, wherever one looked for the most distinctive signs of what is sometimes called simply the Harvard experience, one found the presence and influence of John Finley.

Mitchell Director" (1 - AC and CO) - "While a bit more subtle than the average Players' Club production, the play lent itself admirably to the advantages of the new clubhouse stage and the excellent cast sustained the interest of the audience fairly well throughout." The article praised the cast that had Mr. and Mrs. Mitchell in the leading roles, and then its author opined, "Personally we should prefer to see the Mitchells stick to farces such as 'His Temporary Wife', which was a delightful highlight in the 1929-30 season".

  • Child Welfare in Palestine, 1917-1950 by Julia R. Shatz a Dissertation Submitted in Partial Satisfact
    Governing Global Children: Child Welfare in Palestine, 1917-1950 By Julia R. Shatz A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in Charge: Professor James Vernon, Chair Professor Beshara Doumani Professor Samera Esmeir Professor Christine Philliou Spring 2018 Governing Global Children: Child Welfare in Palestine, 1917-1950 Copyright © 2018 Julia R. Shatz All rights reserved Abstract Governing Global Children: Child Welfare in Palestine, 1917-1950 by Julia R. Shatz Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Berkeley Professor James Vernon, Chair This dissertation examines the construction of a regime of child welfare initiatives in interwar Palestine and the organizations, networks, and individuals that promoted them. In exploring the different arenas in which poor children were brought into systems of aid and care, it argues that child welfare in Mandate Palestine was part of a new form of transnational welfare governance in the twentieth century. My dissertation shows how this form of governance was predicated upon new relationships between local and global forces and born out of mixed economy of care in a colonial setting. The child welfare initiatives described in this narrative created both political spaces in which Palestinians asserted claims to governance and new political subjectivities of the child and those tasked with his or her care. Movements for child welfare reform gained international attention in the years following the First World War. Through international organizations, such as Save the Children, and the novel infrastructure of the League of Nations, the child rose to prominence as a new global subject of governance.
