Smythe, Ph.D. Chilkat Institute September 30, 1386 NOTICE This document is disseminated under the sponsorship of the U.S. Department of the Interior, Minerals Management Service, Alaska Outer Continental Shelf Region, in the interest of information exchange. The United States Government assumes no liability for its content or use thereof. , r. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This study was designed to describe current sociocultural and socioeconomic conditions in the community of Barrow, to establish the historical context of recent changes in the town, and to increase our understanding of the effects of OCS develop- ment on the community’s social, cultural, and economic systems. A general ethnographic approach was used in the research, which included standard participant-observation techniques and adminis- tration of protocols. Data collection focused on general trends in the community and the functioning of extended family networks (particularly social organization, economic strategies, and relationships among households) . We collected biographical information to increase understanding of changes at the indivi- dual level. The study also utilized results of the 1985 Barrow Housing and Employment Survey and other primary and secondary data. Barrow has experienced extensive social and economic transformations, particularly during the 1975 to 1985 period. The North Slope Borough Capital Improvements Program stimulated a boom in the Barrow economy which attracted many non-Natives. Most of this population, which now represents nearly 40 percent of the total, can be considered permanent. Native heads of households now represent a minority in the total number of house- hold heads. Barrowts population also shows surprising racial diversity which has emerged during the last decade. i The borough government is the largest employer in Barrow. The private sector, led by the non-Native population, temporarily burgeoned during the height of the construction boom, but the number of private businesses is decreasing as borough expendi- tures decline. Ifiupiat males, who dominated the short-term, high-paying jobs associated with borough construction, now represent the largest unemployed sector of the population. Ifiupiat women entered the labor force in the largest num- bers since Western contact. They tend to hold the lower-paying, permanent administrative and operations jobs in the borough and other organizations. They have also achieved positions of political leadership in the new institutions. The proportion of Ifiupiat women raising families without husbands also increased during this period. The Ifiupiat demonstrated a remarkable ability to develop and adapt to a proliferation of new institutions and to utilize them to promote their political and economic welfare. Some of these new institutions have been developed to address the social problems and family violence which increased during this period. The extended family, operating through interrelated house- holds , is salient in community social organization. Interrelated households are the primary locus of domestic functions, including visiting and interchange, nurturing children, and subsistence production and distribution. Modern Barrow is characterized by a high degree of community integration, which is directly related to the maintenance of extended family relationships. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS We greatly appreciate the interest and generosity of the families and individuals who kindly agreed to participate in the household interviews and biographical sketches. Without their contributions, this would not have been possible. We owe particular thanks to the Mayor of the North Slope Borough, George Ahmaogak, who supported our efforts by granting us access to borough records and encouraging the full cooperation within the departments. We owe special thanks to the Planning Department, the Environmental Protection Office, the Department of Health and Social Services, the Department of Administration and Finance, the Housing Department, and the Assessing Department. The North Slope Borough School District also provided support for which we are grateful. We would also like to extend our thanks to the City of Barrow and the Alaska Eskimo Whaling Commission for their assistance. The objectives of the study have been further enhanced through the cooperative efforts of Karla Kolash of the NSB Planning Department and Jan Erickson, who allowed us access to the 1985 NSB Barrow Survey. We owe them special thanks. Also, our appreciation extends to David Libbey who gave us copies of the Utqiagvik Ethnohistory Project reports. We would like to acknowledge Earl Nordstrand in the NSB GIS office in Anchorage, who so willingly allowed the staff to assist us in our endeavors. We particularly acknowledge Jess Grunblatt iii and Emily Binnian for their patience and assistance on this project. We also owe special thanks to Bart Ahsogeak, Roy Nageak, Ben Nageak, Bob Harcharek, and Elise Patkotak, all of whom helped us in numerous ways. The local research assistants in Barrow, Edith Nashoalik, Leona Okakok, and Mary Kancewick, provided invaluable assistance. We would also like to acknowledge the substantial contributions of Norman Chance and Nancy Chance in the field research, for household interviews, biographical sketches, and data collection on social services. Steve McNabb played an important role in the creation and analysis of the data base developed from the Barrow surveys. We were also greatly assisted by Ricardo Worl, who served as a research assistant for the project. To Dawn Scott and Judith Brogan we owe special acknowledg- ments for their efforts in the production and editing of this report. We would also like to express our appreciation to the MMS staff of the U.S. Department of the Interior. Karen Gibson, who served as the Contracting Officer’s Technical Representative, and Don Callaway consistently offered valuable assistance and support throughout this project Finally to the people of Barrow, we thank you for the kind welcome and for the hospitality so graciously extended to us, and for sharing your knowledge. iv TABLE OF CONTENTS EE19E Tables . vii MapsandFigures . ● . viii Chapter 1.

  • Winter Camping and Backpacking Tips
    Winter Camping and Backpacking Tips Camping or backpacking in the snow appeals to anyone who enjoys the beauty and peacefulness of a pristine winter wonderland. There are no bugs or crowds, and who doesn't enjoy playing in the snow? With a little preparation, you also might be surprised at how comfortable it can be. Here's a look at how to get started. Pre-trip Planning Winter outings offer different challenges than summer camping. You must be prepared for more severe weather and shorter daylight hours by having extra gear and additional skills. Before you leave home, have a plan. Don't go alone. Share your adventure with a few friends who have expertise in different winter skills (snow shelters, route finding, snow travel, etc.). Study maps and research the area. How long will it take to get there and set up camp? If something goes wrong, what emergency services (i.e., medical, search & rescue) are closest? Talk to people who have been there and can give you pointers. Check the weather forecast. Are conditions favorable? The NOAA-NWS Web site offers detailed backcountry forecasts. Check the local road and trail conditions. Recognize and avoid avalanche areas. Check the local avalanche forecast and don't go if avalanche danger is high. Keep in mind that avalanche forecasts may be general and not accurate for specific areas. If you are on or near any slope greater than 20°, your group should have formal avalanche training. Leave a trip plan. Let others know where you'll be, when you'll be there, when you'll return, vehicle information and names and contact number for participants in your group.

  • Children's Music, MP3 Players, and Expressive
    Children’s Music, MP3 Players, and Expressive Practices at a Vermont Elementary School: Media Consumption as Social Organization among Schoolchildren Tyler Bickford Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2011 © 2011 Tyler Bickford All rights reserved Abstract Children’s Music, MP3 Players, and Expressive Practices at a Vermont Elementary School: Media Consumption as Social Organization among Schoolchildren Tyler Bickford Over the last generation changes in the social structure of the family and children’s command of an increasing share of family spending have led marketers to cultivate children as an important consumer demographic. The designation “tween,” which one marketer refers to as kids “too old for Elmo but too young for Eminem,” has become a catchall category that includes kids as young as four and as old as fifteen. Music marketed to children—led by the Disney juggernaut, which promotes superstar acts such as the Jonas Brothers and Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus across television, radio, film, DVDs and CDs, and branded toys, clothing, and electronics—represents a rare “healthy” area of the music industry, whose growth has paralleled the expansion of portable media technologies throughout U.S. consumer culture. The increasing availability of portable media devices, along with the widespread installation of Internet terminals in schools and educators’ turn toward corporate- produced “edutainment” for lessons, has reconfigured schools as central sites of children’s media consumption. Off-brand MP3 players packaged with cheap and brightly colored earbuds have become more and more affordable, and marketers increasingly target kids with celebrity-branded music devices and innovations like Hasbro’s iDog series of toy portable speakers, which fit naturally among children’s colorful and interactive collections of toys.

DESCRIPTORS Alaska Natives; *Anthropology; Biculturalism; Bilingual Education; *Bilingual Education Programs; *Bilingual Instructional Materials; Cultural Background; *Cultural Education; Cultural Interrelationships; Eskimos; *Material Development; Multicultural Education; *Native Language Instruction; Program Development; Secondary Education; Yupik IDENTIFIERS Alaska (Southwest); *Yupik Eskimos ABSTRACT For the Yupik Eskimos of southwestern Alaska, a primary goal of bilingual-bicultural education is to forge a society that represents the "best of two worlds." While this is an expressed ideal, educational programs have focused on first and second language learning and have not dealt with the relationship between Yupik and non-Yupik cultures or with the concept of culture change. This thesis describes a secondary-level bilingual-bicultural program designed by an anthropologist to address such issues. Background information is provided on Yupik culture and language and on the history of bilingual education in the region. The results of a survey of parent, teacher, student, and administrator opinions of bilingual education are summarized. The collaboration of the ethnographer with Native teachers in the development of instructional materials and methods is discussed. The paper discusses in detail the program projects that guide students to examine personal values in light of Yupik tradition and current social, economic, and political conditions.

  • Native Contributions to Arctic Science at Barrow, Alaska
    ARCTIC VOL. 50, NO. 3 (SEPTEMBER 1997) P. 277–288 InfoNorth Native Contributions to Arctic Science at Barrow, Alaska By Karen Brewster INTRODUCTION N August 1997, the Naval Arctic Research Laboratory (NARL) in Barrow, Alaska celebrated its 50th anniver- Isary. The Lab, originally called the Arctic Research Laboratory (ARL) but renamed in 1967, is renowned for its accomplishments and contributions to the scientific under- standing of the Arctic. Amidst the glory, however, there is little mention of the Iñupiat (North Alaskan Eskimo) role in this scientific program. Local residents’ knowledge of the arctic environment contributed to the success of both individual scientists and the facility overall. Without Native assistance, The Naval Arctic Research Laboratory, Barrow, Alaska, circa 1950s.

Culture Commission, Barrow, Alaska. Few people are aware of the Iñupiat who worked on scientific projects at NARL. I believe the scientific commu- nity has been negligent in not making this better known. Barrow is located at the northernmost point in Alaska Therefore, I will discuss in general Iñupiat assistance to arctic along the Arctic Ocean. The Iñupiat lifestyle in the 1940s, like science from the 1940s to the present, and describe a few that of their ancestors, was dominated by whaling, hunting, specific cases. More Iñupiat worked at NARL than will be fishing, and trapping. It was still a harsh life with few mentioned here, and they deserve equal recognition. Many amenities.
