Yet, despite the recession, the College of Charleston Idemonstrated resiliency by outperforming national fundraising averages for higher education. Guided by our Strategic Plan, we made progress toward our goal of becoming one of the nation’s top liberal arts and sciences universities. We opened incredible new learning and research facilities. We received national recognition in publications such as U.S. News and World Report and Parade magazine. And we launched new academic programs, including a long-sought-after MBA program. The Strategic Plan represents the shared vision of all our stakeholders and establishes a blueprint that will guide the “The College is preparing College for the next decade and beyond. It calls for us to maintain our strong student-focused culture while offering academic opportunities that are characteristic of a national research university. At the plan’s heart are the College’s to launch a comprehensive three core values: educational excellence; student-focused community; and the unique history, traditions, culture, and campaign that will generate environment of Charleston and the Lowcountry. The achievement of the plan’s goals hinges on a new financial model that requires us to become more self-sufficient and less critical resources for student dependent on state funding. We will achieve greater financial security through a combination of more private fundraising; pursuing scholarships, academic additional corporate and government grants; and developing entrepreneurial, revenue-generating programs and activities. Over the past few years, the College has placed renewed emphasis on private fundraising. As a result, our donors, initiatives, innovative friends, and supporters are more engaged in the College than ever before. Last year, total giving reached $9.1 million, research, extensive student representing a 10.5 percent increase over 2009 and a 27.5 percent increase over 2008. And for the first time, giving to the College of Charleston Fund exceeded $1 million. life programming and While we are proud of these fundraising accomplishments, they don’t represent our full potential. We have the ability to state-of-the-art facilities.” achieve much more. That’s why I’m so excited about what lies ahead. The College is preparing to launch a comprehensive campaign that will generate critical resources for student scholarships, academic initiatives, innovative research, extensive student life programming, state-of-the-art facilities, and other goals identified in the Strategic Plan. Planning for this campaign has been and will continue to be a campus-wide collaboration to ensure that our fundraising efforts align with the needs and goals of each of the College’s academic and administrative units. But the campaign is not only about raising money. It is also about the College establishing a sustainable culture of philanthropy and forming stronger connections between the passions of our donors and the educational and research opportunities we provide to our students, faculty and staff. As you read the student and faculty testimonials on the following pages, you will see that the positive impact of your generosity is evident all across our campus.

    Anti-Trafficking Coalition FOSTA Letter to US House of Representatives

    January 16, 2018 The Honorable Paul Ryan, Speaker U.S. House of Representatives Washington, DC 20510-0001 The Honorable Kevin McCarthy, Majority Leader U.S. House of Representatives Washington, DC 20510-0001 Dear Mr. Speaker and MaJority Leader McCarthy: We write as organizations and individuals working to end human trafficking with allies across the country, including Wisconsin and California, and concerned citizens who respect the pressures you face conducting the nation’s business. But the issue we write about is literally a matter of life and death. Last month in Portland Oregon, the family of a 24-year old mother, murdered on Christmas by a man who bought her for sex on Backpage.com, sued the website for allowing sex trafficking in its ads. 1 The case is similar to testimony heard by the Senate Commerce Committee from the mother of a 16-year-old daughter murdered by a man who bought her via Backpage.com on Christmas Eve. 2 Congress granted victims of human trafficking a private right of action under the Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act (TVPRA) of 2003 to provide protection and to help prevent this despicable crime. Yet court after court, has ruled the Communications Decency Act (CDA) of 1996 shields Internet Service Providers like Backpage.com from accountability. As a result, online trafficking has surged, online entities continue to facilitate trafficking with impunity, and victims have no effective legal redress. The First Circuit Court of Appeals pointedly stated, “[T]he remedy is through legislation.” 3 1 http://www.oregonlive.com/portland/index.ssf/2017/12/family_of_woman_killed_in_port.html# 2 https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/true-crime/wp/2017/09/19/mother-of-slain-teen-makes-tearful-plea- for-congress-to-amend-internet-law/ 3 http://media.ca1.uscourts.gov/pdf.opinions/15-1724P-01A.pdf However, in the strong opinion of the undersigned organizations, the remedy is not the Substitute to HR 1865, Allow States and Victims to Fight Online Sex Trafficking Act (FOSTA), approved by the House Judiciary Committee on December 12, 2017.

Endogenous Presidentialism James A. Robinson and Ragnar Torvik NBER Working Paper No. 14603 December 2008 JEL No. H1 ABSTRACT We develop a model to understand the incidence of presidential and parliamentary institutions. Our analysis is predicated on two ideas: first, that minorities are relatively powerful in a parliamentary system compared to a presidential system, and second, that presidents have more power with respect to their own coalition than prime ministers do. These assumptions imply that while presidentialism has separation of powers, it does not necessarily have more checks and balances than parliamentarism.

It argues that this connection was not integral to the character as he was originally created, but was imposed by later writers over time and mainly for cinematic adaptations. This thesis also tracks the history of how Christians and churches viewed Superman, as the film studios began to exploit marketing opportunities by comparing Superman and Jesus. This thesis uses the methodological framework of intertextuality to ground its treatment of the sources, but does not follow all of the assumptions of intertextual theorists. iii MA Thesis—Robert Revington; McMaster University, Religious Studies ABSTRACT This thesis examines the historical trajectory of how the comic book character of Superman came to be identified as a Christ figure in popular consciousness. Superman was created in 1938, but the character developed significantly from his earliest incarnations.
