    Five College 50Th Anniversary Special Project Fund

    Five College 50th Anniversary Special Project Fund PURPOSE To celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the Five College Consortium. The consortium was founded in May 1965 as Four Colleges, Incorporated. In September 1966, the consortium welcomed the newly founded Hampshire College, amending its purpose and changing the corporate name to Five Colleges, Incorporated. “The primary purpose of the corporation is to promote the broad educational and cultural objectives of Amherst College, Hampshire College, Mount Holyoke College, Smith College and the University of Massachusetts by encouraging and fostering closer cooperation and understanding among the faculty, staff and students of the five institutions, and by promoting and developing opportunities for joint lectures, concerts, plays, games and other activities, for sharing the use of the educational and cultural facilities of the five institutions and for a better understanding of the peoples, cultures and institutions of other nations.” GUIDELINES Eligibility: Open to any Five College collaborative program or group (including, but not limited to centers, councils, committees, departments, majors, certificate programs, faculty seminars, administrative collaborations, Museums10, Learning in Retirement, and student organizations). Purpose, Goals of Grants from the Fund: • For support of an event demonstrating or featuring cross-campus collaboration (academic or administrative) that also highlights to some extent the history of this collaboration. • Funds can be used towards enhancing a previously planned or regular annual event (for example a student symposium or lecture by a visiting scholar), or a newly conceived event. • Funds must be used between May 2015 and December 2016 the period of celebration of the 50th Anniversary of the Five College Consortium.
  • 5A Few Bold Institutions

    5A Few Bold Institutions

    THE FIVE COLLEGE CONSORTIUM A few bold 5institutions In 1965, the Pioneer Valley’s four colleges, 1. Amherst College, 2. Mount Holyoke College, 3. Smith College, and the 4. University of Massachusetts Amherst, were experimenting with innovative ideas in higher education. One of those ideas was 5. Hampshire College, a radical student-centered model. The big idea, though, was sharing resources through an inter-college consortium. So what does that mean now? Your resources are multiplied by five. You can take classes, borrow books, play club sports, eat food, join clubs, and attend events at the other four campuses. You’ll make friends all across the Pioneer Valley. And for a college where students create their own programs of study, this is especially awesome. 3 WHO WE ARE The (really, really) 4,600+ big picture cross registrations for classes this year 30,000 undergraduate students Hampshire College Amherst College Mount Holyoke College foreign- 2,200+ Smith College 4 language faculty members UMass Amherst Five College majors: 70+ offerings Architectural Studies 5 Astronomy campuses Dance Film Studies 900+ student groups 9 million volumes within the Five College Library System 6 average number of 75+ courses Hampshire 17 intercollegiate students take in the certificate programs sports teams consortium over their four years 4 5 In addition to promoting each institution’s majors and programs, Five Colleges, Inc. sponsors learning centers, collaborative programs, additional certifications, and accelerated master’s programs.

We demonstrate that outreach without the explicit goal of promoting a specific resource or service can be an effective use of time, and can build social capital that shares the goals of traditional outreach. Involving all staff in this outreach effort was a valuable team building experience, exposing the depth of our interests and expertise to each other and to our campus community. Introduction Curiosity is an element of librarianship that is defined by Kathleen M. Fisher as “a relentless inquisitiveness about the world around and beyond us, a continual scrutiny and questioning of experience” (Fisher 2000).

While interest on the Tax Exempt Bonds will not constitute a preference item for purposes of computation of the alternative minimum tax imposed on certain individuals and corporations, interest on the Tax Exempt Bonds will be included in “adjusted current earnings” of corporate holders of the Tax Exempt Bonds and therefore will be taken into account in computing the alternative minimum tax imposed on certain corporations. Interest on the Series 2017-2 Bonds will be included in the gross income of holders of such Bonds for federal income tax purposes. In the opinion of Bond Counsel, interest on the Bonds and any profit made on the sale thereof are exempt from Massachusetts personal income taxes, and the Bonds are exempt from Massachusetts personal property taxes.

    I give permission for public access to my thesis and for any copying to be done at the discretion of the archives librarian and/or the College librarian. ____________________________________ Beier Yao May 2013 i Examining the Source and Function of Meta-stereotypes in a Five-College Context by Beier Yao A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of Mount Holyoke College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Arts with Honors Department of Psychology and Education Mount Holyoke College South Hadley, Massachusetts ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to extend my sincere gratitude to all the individuals who supported me through this yearlong journey. The ending product bears all the marks left by them: First, I would like to thank my thesis advisor, Jessica Salvatore, for guiding me to the right directions, providing me with the vehicles most in need (both physically and metaphorically), and giving me the liberty to walk my own way at the same time. Though the destination was not exactly what we expected, at least I had a great time all along, even with the detours, and she was the one who never failed to make the journey exciting and delightful. I would also like to thank Robert Shilkret for his meticulous reading of my drafts, constant request for clarity, and all the intellectual comments. I am grateful to Haley Hedlin for agreeing to be on my committee and safeguarding the statistical analyses in this project. Words fail me when I try to express my gratitude to Fran Deutsch. Though she was not able to stay on board, she was the one who encouraged me to embark on the journey in the first place.
