FUTURE WORLD(S): A Critique of Disney's EPCOT and Creating a Futuristic Curriculum by ALAN BOWERS (Under the Direction of Daniel Chapman) ABSTRACT In my dissertation inquiry, I explore the need for utopian based curriculum which was inspired by Walt Disney’s EPCOT Center. Theoretically building upon such works regarding utopian visons (Bregman, 2017, e.g., Claeys 2011;) and Disney studies (Garlen and Sandlin, 2016; Fjellman, 1992), this work combines historiography and speculative essays as its methodologies. In addition, this project explores how schools must do the hard work of working toward building a better future (Chomsky and Foucault, 1971). Through tracing the evolution of EPCOT as an idea for a community that would “always be in the state of becoming” to EPCOT Center as an inspirational theme park, this work contends that those ideas contain possibilities for how to interject utopian thought in schooling.

  • Cinderella Castle at Walt Disney World Resort Fact Sheet
    Cinderella Castle at Walt Disney World Resort Fact Sheet Description: Cinderella Castle pays homage to the beloved story and characters from Disney’s 12th full-length animated feature film, “Cinderella,” which was released in theaters in 1950. Painted in traditional colors of grey, blue, and gold, the castle represents a romantic conception of a French palace-fortress. While the base of the castle resembles a medieval fortress typifying the Romanesque architecture and castles of the 11th through 13th centuries, the upper portion of the castle reflects the stately Gothic forms that were prominent in later centuries. Opening Date: October 1, 1971 Castle Height: 189 feet (tallest structure in Magic Kingdom Park) Construction: Cinderella Castle took approximately 18 months to build and was completed in July, 1971. The castle is made of concrete, steel, cement, plaster, and fiberglass. No bricks were used in the construction. The inner castle is structural steel covered with fiberglass. The foundation is concrete filled with foam for weight conservation Cinderella’s Royal Table: A circular stairwell or a themed elevator transports guests to Cinderella’s Royal Table, the elegant restaurant located on the second level of the castle where guests can meet Cinderella and some of her princess friends. Hosts and Hostesses address younger guests as “princes” or “princesses,” while adult guests are addressed as “lords” or “ladies.” Fun facts: For inspiration, Walt Disney Imagineering researchers turned to the famous palaces of Charles Perrault’s France, still showplaces of Europe. Their design took the form of a romanticized composite of such courts as Fontainebleau, Versailles, and a dozen famed chateaux of the Loire Valley.

    hundred competitors, for a special project run jointly by the University Religious Conference and the Ford Foundation 5 to combat the negative image of America in India.

  • A Case Study of Michael Eisner's Long Tenure at Disney Corporation Wi
    Destructive Corporate Leadership and Board Loyalty Bias: A case study of Michael Eisner’s long tenure at Disney Corporation William Forbes (Loughborough Business School) Robert Watson (Instituto de Empresa Business School) Introduction In this paper we argue that the widely-held public corporation, characterised by “strong managers and weak owners” (Roe, 1994) is exposed to what Padilla, et al (2007) identify as “destructive leadership” risks which, due to board loyalty biases, current corporate governance codes appear to do little to mitigate. As Padilla et al argue for destructive leadership to take hold and to generate extreme negative outcomes there typically needs to be a “toxic triangle” consisting of “destructive leaders, susceptible followers and conducive environments”. All three of these elements are present in the widely-held corporation and hence it ought not to be too surprising therefore to regularly observe negative corporate outcomes such as value destroying takeovers, financial fraud and delusional business strategies initiated and driven by over-mighty and hubristic CEOs. We illustrate these issues via an examination of Michael Eisner´s long tenure as Disney Corporation´s CEO. The reason why we choose to focus on the Disney case rather than on one of the more obvious and highly publicised cases of destructive (and fraudulent) leadership, such as Enron or WorldCom, is because these latter instances of corporate governance failure are, thankfully, highly unusual - indeed quite rare. So Eisner is the acceptable, almost glorified, face of corporate waste and self-awareness, if not aggrandisement. In contrast, we believe that the Disney case, whilst not involving any explicitly fraudulent behaviour, does illustrate the potential for massive destruction of shareholder value stemming from behaviour that is far more common and widespread amongst corporate elites and board members.

COMPANY HISTORY The Walt Disney Company (“Disney”) originated with its animated characters and expanded into other adjacent businesses with the goal of bringing happiness to families via several different, but related avenues. In October 1923, Walter (“Walt”) and Roy Disney established the Disney Brothers Studio and began creating animated films that would eventually be the foundation of Disney3. In 1937, Disney created Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. This film is the only animated film to rank in the American Film Institute’s list of the 100 greatest American Films of all time.4 In 1955, Disney opened its first theme park, Disneyland, in Anaheim, California, that spanned over 160 acres.

  • Twenty Years of Disney Vacation Club®
    sUMMER2012 • Volume21 • Number2 TWENTY YEARS OF DISNEY VACATION CLUB® To say I know a lot about cars would be like saying the Kardashians know a lot about privacy. I’m not ashamed to admit that if the imaginary “man card” wasn’t imaginary, the checklist of male stereotypes on the back of mine would include at least one empty box. Football? Check. Ignoring written instructions? Check. Affinity for standing around a grill? Emphatic check. Knowledge of cars? Not so much. Whereas a card-carrying gear head may ask a salesman about gaskets, manifolds and flywheels (words I just pulled off the Internet), I’m more likely to ask about cup holders, floor mats and those fun little retractable storage compartments for sunglasses. So imagine my surprise when, in 2006, the good people at Pixar captivated me with a movie about – and titled – Cars. Mater and McQueen connected me to motor vehicles in a way I haven’t felt since “The Dukes of Hazzard” left the airwaves, and the film added a Route 66 road trip to my bucket list. Whetting my appetite for that trip will be Cars Land, scheduled to welcome Disney California Adventure Guests to Radiator Springs on June 15. I sat down with two of the project’s lead Imagineers to get the inside scoop about this 12-acre paradise of motors and magic (pages 3-6). And that’s not the only story boosting the strength of my man card in this edition. Page 8, for example, examines the growing trend of Members gathering around fire pits at Disney Vacation Club Resorts.

  • Ray Watson & the Irvine Company Date Position 9/6/60
    RAY WATSON & THE IRVINE COMPANY DATE POSITION 9/6/60 Architect Planner Stan Ott hired me. He was the first manager if planning for TIC having been hired in early 1960. I first met Stan in June, 1983 shortly before receiving my MA- Architecture form UCB. Upon the recommendation of the Dean of the Graduate School of Planning he offered me a summer job planning a Civic Center for Stockton, CA.. Stan was the planning director of that city. In the Spring of 1960, I was working in San Francisco, he contacted me. Told me of the plans of TIC to plan and build a new town and asked me to become his assistant and join the Company. At the time I was managing an Architectural firm in San Francisco and Elsa and I had just moved into our new home in Sunnyvale, CA.. But the opportunity of participating in such an ambitious venture was so attractive in my young career that we sold our new (9 months old) home and I joined him on Sept. 9th. The day after I arrived he informed me he had been asked for his resignation. Although my title remained Architect Planner I soon assumed the responsibilities of manager of planning. 1/1/63 Manager, Planning Although I had been performing that function for most of my time at the Company I was official given the title. 12/64 Vise President, Planning Charles Thomas, President of TIC, gave me that title to “recognize the important contributions I was making for the Company.” Pay $25,000/year.
