Winter 2015–2016 Georgian Court University Magazine Volume 13 | Winter 2015–2016 Georgian Court University Magazine President’s Annual Report & Honor Roll of Donors 2014–2015 Th e New Guy on Campus Meet President Marbach From the President Dear Alumni and Friends, Happy New Year! I am excited about the promise of what 2016 has in store for Georgian Court University, and if recent months are an indication of what is ahead, hold on tight! Together, we have much to celebrate and more work to do. Many of you have warmly welcomed me and my family to GCU, and it has been great getting to hear your suggestions for making Georgian Court the Catholic university of New Jersey. Thank you for embracing me at the BlueClaws stadium in August, where Agnes Moore Higgins ’39 and student-athletes joined me to throw a first pitch, and at activities like Move-In Day, Homecoming and Family Day (read more on page 17), my Inaugural Week, and the NJEA Convention in Atlantic City. Your phone calls, e-mails, letters, and cards relay a growing sense of enthusiasm and your rock-solid pride in GCU, especially as accolades rolled in recently from MONEY magazine, The Economist, Washington Monthly, and Colleges of Distinction (read more on pages 5–7). I am counting on your continued support as we look for innovative ways to embrace the GCU mission and build on the legacy entrusted to us by the Sisters of Mercy. In early 2015 when I interviewed for the presidency, I was repeatedly asked, “Why do you want to be president of GCU?” Today, my answer is the same: GCU is a campus of opportunity. It’s why I came here. Our presence as the only Catholic university serving Central and Southern New Jersey presents an opportunity to engage Catholic high schools and parishes through new scholarship offerings. In the business community, we have an opportunity to create courses and degrees that serve industry, adult learners, and nonprofit organizations—whether they come to campus or we go to them. We are creating new opportunities for partners to join GCU in educating students and exploring new academic programs. Going into 2016, we face external challenges related to demographics, the economy, and public perception of the value of a liberal arts-infused college education. These challenges, however, can be met as we build on our strengths and position GCU for growth. As a campus and as a university family, we will be nimble as we move forward in 2016 and beyond. Indeed it is a new year. Together, we will make it a great year. Go Lions! Joseph R. Marbach, Ph.D. President, Georgian Court University P.S. Connect with me on Twitter at @DrJosephMarbach!

Marbach, Ph.D. By Gail H. Towns 2 | WINTER 2015–2016 or Joseph R. Marbach, Ph.D., the last several months have been good. Challenging, busy, and occasionally exhausting, but overall, theF transition to becoming Georgian Court University’s first male and first lay president has been very, very good. “Actually, it’s been great,” says Dr. Marbach, who joined GCU July 1 after serving as provost at La Salle University. “It feels like a good fit, and based on the response from staff, faculty, students, alumni, and the Board of Trustees, they seem to appreciate my presence and some of the initiatives I’ve proposed.” From promoting new scholarships for Catholic high school When GCU launched its national search for a new president graduates to touting GCU’s unique position as the only in late 2014, Dr. Marbach was drawn to the job, in part, because Catholic university serving Central and Southern New Jersey, of the Mercy charism and the university’s strong commitment to Dr. Marbach is constantly exploring innovative ideas to grow Catholic higher education. awareness and revenue. “This institution has been making a difference in people’s “Education in the 21st century is increasingly about lives for 107 years,” he says. “Transforming lives is integral to our partnerships, and how we expand those in New Jersey, Maryland, Catholic mission, which allows us the academic freedom that is New York, and Pennsylvania will make a difference,” says sometimes forbidden in the public sphere. Dr. Marbach, who is often out in the community, connecting “How business, politics, science, and other trends affect with corporate leaders. “We are moving aggressively. I’m out there spiritual and moral development are issues that we can explore networking—as are others—to develop ideas, expand partnerships, through vocation and calling—in everyday conversation,” he says and establish new programs.” enthusiastically. “We have a unique opportunity to define He wants to create joint programs with medical and law our niche in the marketplace and to tell our story by ensuring schools, strengthen relationships with Catholic churches students answer their calling.” throughout the Trenton, Metuchen, and Camden dioceses, and The point was emphasized as GCU marked his Inaugural attract some of the region’s million-plus adults who have college Week with the theme, “Answering the Call: Transformation experience but lack a degree. He recently connected the university through Catholic Education.” Hundreds of supporters packed with a new online academic assistance program, now being piloted with high-achieving GCU students as tutors, and is reviewing a proposal to grow healthcare-related majors. To the uninitiated, it may seem that the new guy on campus is already overextended. Not so. Instead, Dr. Marbach is energized by the possibilities and clear about the road ahead. “Enrollment is job #1,” he says. “Every other goal is second to that. That’s been well communicated, and it’s not a hard sell. People are all in. Everyone recognizes that recruitment and enrollment are everybody’s charge.” Committed to Calling Dr. Marbach, a product of Northeast Catholic High School in his hometown of Philadelphia, graduated from La Salle University and earned his master’s degree and doctorate in political science at Temple University. He began his career at Seton Hall University, where he was dean of the College of Arts and Sciences, and became a sought-after media expert on government and New Jersey politics. In 2010, he was named chief academic officer at La Salle, where he expanded doctoral, master’s degree, and undergraduate Dr. Marbach and his wife, Paula, (center) with their children Joseph (right), Jillian (left), and Madison (front) degree offerings. GEORGIAN COURT UNIVERSITY MAGAZINE | 3 the Wellness Center for the investiture on October 16, which drew speakers including the Most Reverend David M. O’Connell, C.M., JCD, bishop of the Diocese of Trenton; Lesa M. Lardieri-Wright ’75, chair of the GCU Board of Trustees; and Seton Hall University President A. Gabriel Esteban, Ph.D. The bishop’s advice to GCU’s ninth president: Take time now to develop a vision. “A vision, however, cannot be formed or fashioned in isolation,” Bishop O’Connell, former president of the Catholic University of America, spoke from experience. “A good leader looks first before he leaps; a good leader listens first before he speaks; a good leader learns first before he teaches. “Look, listen, and learn first,” he advised, “and your vision as a good leader will follow and deepen and grow for the community you seek to lead…” Additional words of wisdom were offered by former Georgian Court presidents Rosemary E. Jeffries, RSM, Ph.D., ’72; Barbara A. Williams, RSM, ’63; and Maria Cordis Richey, RSM, Ph.D., ’50. More than a dozen more Sisters of Mercy also celebrated the inauguration.

This study uses phenomenology methodology to better understand their lived experience. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with five Latino-white couples and one Latina-white couple. The five themes discovered include interethnic couple identity; combining languages; external support of the relationship; external stressors of the relationship; and partaking in the partner’s culture.

  • Unsettling a Settler Family's History in Aotearoa New Zealand
    genealogy Article A Tale of Two Stories: Unsettling a Settler Family’s History in Aotearoa New Zealand Richard Shaw Politics Programme, Massey University, PB 11 222 Palmerston North, New Zealand; [email protected]; Tel.: +64-27609-8603 Abstract: On the morning of the 5 November 1881, my great-grandfather stood alongside 1588 other military men, waiting to commence the invasion of Parihaka pa,¯ home to the great pacifist leaders Te Whiti o Rongomai and Tohu Kakahi¯ and their people. Having contributed to the military campaign against the pa,¯ he returned some years later as part of the agricultural campaign to complete the alienation of Taranaki iwi from their land in Aotearoa New Zealand. None of this detail appears in any of the stories I was raised with. I grew up Pakeh¯ a¯ (i.e., a descendant of people who came to Aotearoa from Europe as part of the process of colonisation) and so my stories tend to conform to orthodox settler narratives of ‘success, inevitability, and rights of belonging’. This article is an attempt to right that wrong. In it, I draw on insights from the critical family history literature to explain the nature, purposes and effects of the (non)narration of my great-grandfather’s participation in the military invasion of Parihaka in late 1881. On the basis of a more historically comprehensive and contextualised account of the acquisition of three family farms, I also explore how the control of land taken from others underpinned the creation of new settler subjectivities and created various forms of privilege that have flowed down through the generations.

  • An Analysis of Hegemonic Social Structures in "Friends"
    "I'LL BE THERE FOR YOU" IF YOU ARE JUST LIKE ME: AN ANALYSIS OF HEGEMONIC SOCIAL STRUCTURES IN "FRIENDS" Lisa Marie Marshall A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY August 2007 Committee: Katherine A. Bradshaw, Advisor Audrey E. Ellenwood Graduate Faculty Representative James C. Foust Lynda Dee Dixon © 2007 Lisa Marshall All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Katherine A. Bradshaw, Advisor The purpose of this dissertation is to analyze the dominant ideologies and hegemonic social constructs the television series Friends communicates in regard to friendship practices, gender roles, racial representations, and social class in order to suggest relationships between the series and social patterns in the broader culture. This dissertation describes the importance of studying television content and its relationship to media culture and social influence. The analysis included a quantitative content analysis of friendship maintenance, and a qualitative textual analysis of alternative families, gender, race, and class representations. The analysis found the characters displayed actions of selectivity, only accepting a small group of friends in their social circle based on friendship, gender, race, and social class distinctions as the six characters formed a culture that no one else was allowed to enter. iv ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This project stems from countless years of watching and appreciating television. When I was in college, a good friend told me about a series that featured six young people who discussed their lives over countless cups of coffee. Even though the series was in its seventh year at the time, I did not start to watch the show until that season.
