presentations, or Speaker Series events, per semester are connected under one theme. Such a thematic thread is an exciting and challenging lens through which students in the Columbia Undergraduate Scholars Program (CUSP) can approach the pressing issues of the day, linking discrete areas of speculation. Under separate thematic covers, CUSP has explored questions of education, expression, professional and social responsibility, international and public health, civil and human rights, science and technology, business ethics, sustainable development, politics and finance, art and representation, and the role of the writer as witness. In addition to these larger presentations, CUSP also develops two to three Scholar Forum events each semester. These events are smaller seminar-style events where distinguished faculty and guests can speak to the yearly theme and provide ample opportunity for questions

  • Cord Cutting 2020
    Cord Cutting 2020 TCPC General Meeting January 2020 Ungerleider’s Theory on Cord Cutting If your reason for exploring Streaming plus OTA is to save money, you will disappointed. The reason to choose streaming over cable/satellite TV is to control your content and options. Borrowing Terminology Cable companies use various terms like Basic, Premium, Bundles, and On-Demand. For our purposes we will look at various streaming providers and how they compare to the packages a cable provider might have. Prices listed in the slides are per month. (Some services have annual rates at a discount.) OTA is a must Remember that if you are streaming content you will need an antenna and tuner to watch local broadcast channels. Over the Air (OTA) is a vital component of most cord cutting scenarios. Replacing the basic cable bundle WIth a basic cable subscription you get a large number of channels dictated by the cable company. There are several streaming services that provide most of the same channels as your basic cable subscription. (Some even include local channels.) One of these services is most likely to be the core subscription of your setup. Currently there are two tiers of service with corresponding differences in price points. Tier 1: Full Basic Cable replacement Hulu + Live TV: Provides around 70 Channels including most news, sports and entertainment channels you’ll find on entry tier cable package. Majority owner: Disney Price: $54.99 YouTube TV: Advertises 70+ channels. Like Hulu + Live TV it contains the usual channels. The line up is a little different from Hulu so you’ll want to check which channel selection is more to your liking.

  • Incorporating Fansubbers Into Corporate Capitalism on Viki.Com
    “A Community Unlike Any Other”: Incorporating Fansubbers into Corporate Capitalism on Viki.com Taylore Nicole Woodhouse TC 660H Plan II Honors Program The University of Texas at Austin Spring 2018 __________________________________________ Dr. Suzanne Scott Department of Radio-Television-Film Supervising Professor __________________________________________ Dr. Youjeong Oh Department of Asian Studies Second Reader ABSTRACT Author: Taylore Nicole Woodhouse Title: “A Community Unlike Another Other”: Incorporating Fansubbers into Corporate Capitalism on Viki.com Supervising Professors: Dr. Suzanne Scott and Dr. Youjeong Oh Viki.com, founded in 2008, is a streaming site that offers Korean (and other East Asian) television programs with subtitles in a variety of languages. Unlike other K-drama distribution sites that serve audiences outside of South Korea, Viki utilizes fan-volunteers, called fansubbers, as laborers to produce its subtitles. Fan subtitling and distribution of foreign language media in the United States is a rich fan practice dating back to the 1980s, and Viki is the first corporate entity that has harnessed the productive power of fansubbers. In this thesis, I investigate how Viki has been able to capture the enthusiasm and productive capacity of fansubbers. Particularly, I examine how Viki has been able to monetize fansubbing in while still staying competitive with sites who employee trained, professional translators. I argue that Viki has succeeded in courting fansubbers as laborers by co-opting the concept of the “fan community.” I focus on how Viki strategically speaks about the community and builds its site to facilitate the functioning of its community so as to encourage fansubbers to view themselves as semi-professional laborers instead of amateur fans.

Jackson History 4712 603 Fayerweather Hall Tues. & Thurs. 1:10pm-2:25pm- [email protected] 417 International Affairs Building “The city, the city my Dear Brutus – stick to that and live in its full light. Residence elsewhere, as I made up my mind in early life, is mere eclipse and obscurity to those whose energy is capable of shining in Rome.” Marcus Tullius Cicero “New York City, the incomparable, the brilliant star city of cities, the forty-ninth state, a law unto itself, the Cyclopean Paradox, the inferno with no out-of-bounds, the supreme expression of both the miseries and the splendors of contemporary civilization, the Macedonia of the United States. It meets the most severe test that may be applied to the definit ion of a metropolis – it stays up all night. But also it becomes a small town when it rains.” John Gunther “If you live in New York, even if you’re Catholic, you’re Jewish.” Lenny Bruce “There is no question there is an unseen world; the question is, how far is it from midtown, and how late is it open?” Woody Allen “I am not afraid to admit that New York is the greatest city on the face of God’s earth. You only have to look at it from the air, from the river, from Father Duffy’s statue. New York is easily recognizable as the greatest city in the world, view it any way and every way – back, belly, and sides.” Brendan Behan “Is New York the most beautiful city in the world? It is not far from it.

  • Almhouse-Ledger-Collection-1758
    In October 2015, under a grant generously funded by the National Historical Publications and Records Commission, the New York City Municipal Archives embarked upon a large and exciting new project: processing, preserving and cataloging the Almshouse Ledger Collection. This historic collection contains over 400 handwritten volumes pertaining to city run institutions including the Almshouses, Workhouses, Lunatic Asylum, Penitentiary and various hospitals, all which found their home on Blackwell’s Island, now Roosevelt Island. The project covers the years 1758-1952. This important project will ensure that the Almshouse Ledger Collection is preserved for future generations of researchers, scholars, genealogists, educators and anyone interested in the social, cultural and medical histories during this period of great change and growth in New York City. Guide to Human Resources Administration, Almshouse Ledger Collection, 1758-1952 Collection No.: 0008 Record Group: Human Resources Administration Title of the Collection: Almshouse Ledger Collection Date(s): 1758-1952 (bulk 1832-1925) Extent: 417 ledgers, 81 cubic feet Abstract: The records of the Almshouse Ledger Collection represent the activities of the institutions under the purview of various city departments on Blackwell’s Island. Records in this collection date from 1758 to 1952, with the bulk of the records falling between 1832 and 1925. This collection represents a comprehensive, yet incomplete collection of materials produced by each department overseeing the Almshouses and their related entities. These records document the social service, cultural, medical and corrections history of New York City. Processing Information: This collection was processed in 1963 by unknown persons. Most recently, project archivist, Nathalie Belkin arranged and described the materials and encoded the finding aid in EAD in winter, 2016.
