So thank you!!!” “One PERSONAL bit of advice, that I would LOVE to instill into the SRS’s of the world: single moms have a way out of this welfare program. Single mothers on welfare can apply for Pell Grants that totally pay for their education; financial aid can provide them with a computer; the KSU distance program would be perfect to help them OUT of the “trap”.

LASER Project - About six weeks ago, the University signed a contract with Oracle as the vendor to develop a new SIS, BRS, FRS, FAMS, and Fee System combined. The only KSU main- frame systems that will not be included in the new effort will be the Budget Office and the Human Resources System. www.dce.ksu.edu/intranet/pio/newsletter Before higher education institutions can “think like a business” we need to talk the talk. The only thing more ridiculous than a bunch of academicians tossing out polysyllabic terms describing simple concepts is a bunch of business types using the latest business slang. Catch phrases are hot in the trenches of the business world. Reputations for being cutting edge are actualized by utilizing buzz words 24/7. For example: 404: Someone who’s clueless. From the World Wide Web error message “404 Not found”, meaning that the requested document could not be located. Example: “Don’t bother asking him. He’s 404, man.” blamestorming: Sitting around in a group discussing why a deadline was missed or a project failed, and who was responsible. This one will be particularly valuable to those of you who have projects going right now. Dilberted: To be exploited and oppressed by your boss. Derived from the experiences of Dilbert. For example, “I’ve been Dilberted again. The old man revised the specs for the fourth time this week.” meatloaf: Jokes, links, poetry etc. forwarded multiple, multiple times to everyone on a personal e-mail list. Like spam, only homemade. (Thanks to Lennie Leeling.) ohnosecond: That minuscule fraction of time it takes to realize that you’ve just made a big mistake. percussive maintenance: The fine art of whacking an electronic device to get it working again. salmon day: The experience of spending an entire day swimming upstream only to die in the end. We’ve had these before — and will again. So, what’s wrong with jargon? Nothing, as long as we use it to increase the value of communication. Most of the business buzzwords above are great shorthand for common experiences. Using DCE buzzwords makes us a team. Besides, it is a lot easier to say DL, instead of “Distance Learning” or “MIOP” (my-op) for “Master’s in Industrial/Organizational Psychology.” From the 10,000 ft. view, however, we sometimes forget that the language we use on a day-to-day basis inside DCE doesn’t mean the same thing to outsiders, or even our students, clients, or conference attendees. At the end of the day, the language we use should serve the same purpose as everything we do: help someone learn something today that they wouldn’t have been able to learn without us. ‘Til next month – Anne Stark www.dce.ksu.edu/intranet/pio/newsletter Births, Events, etc. Division Birthdays Friday, May 3, after work, the Information Systems office staff would like to invite all Division May 14 Barb Kravitz, Information Systems staff, student employees, and their guests and family to the annual Spring Graduation Party at May 17 Mary Marston, Continuing Learning the lake.

  • Sweet Smell of Success
    SWEET SMELL OF SUCCESS by Clifford Odets Ernest Lehman Working Script For THE SWEET SMELL OF SUCCESS FADE IN: EXT. INT. GLOBE NEWSPAPER BUILDING - DUSK - N.Y. A row of newspaper delivery trucks is lined up against the long loading bay, waiting for the edition. In the foreground a large clock establishes the time as 8:10 PM. A rumbling noise warns the men to take their positions; a few seconds later the bales of newspapers come sliding the spiral chutes onto the moving belts from which they are manhandled onto the trucks. Much noise and shouting. The front truck moves out to the city street. As it does CAMERA EMPHASIZES the big poster on its side. The design features a large pair of spectacles with heavy rims - a trademark of Hunsecker's. (It will later be seen as the masthead of the gossip column.) "GO WITH THE GLOBE" Read J.J. HUNSECKER "They eyes of Broadway" EXT. BROADWAY - DUSK - N.Y. The truck starts on its journey along Broadway. Some shots are of the vehicle moving through very heavy traffic (taken from a camera car). Others are from the inside of the truck; as it slows down, the delivery man tosses the heavy bundle of papers onto the sidewalk. CAMERA following the truck, holds it in foreground against the blazing electric signs of Broadway and Times Square. EXT. BROADWAY - NIGHT The southeast corner of the intersection of Broadway and 46th Street, CAMERA, fairly high, shoots north towards the impressive vista of electric signs, silhouetted against the darkening sky.

Acknowledgements I would like to first and foremost thank my advisor, Kathy Fuller-Seeley. This project was initially conceived of during my first semester at UT in her class, and she has supported me through all of its various iterations. Kathy’s commitment to her students and genuine kindness are a huge part of this thesis being a largely positive experience. I would also like to thank Tom Schatz for his support, time, and editing expertise. This project would not have been possible without such a supportive committee. And thank you to my incredible cohort.
