Goodlett Place Department of Elections City Hall - Room 48 San Francisco, CA 94102-4634 Phone: (415) 554-4375 Fax: (415) 554-7344 September 10, 2001 Dear Fellow San Franciscans: The relationship between the Department of Elections and you, the voters of San Francisco, is one of dedication and trust. The Department of Elections is the trustee and steward of every citizen’s right to participate in the democratic process. The Department’s staff stands ready to insure that every San Franciscan’s right to run for office, to advocate for issues, and to vote, are protected. However, the Department of Elections cannot succeed without dedicated civic-minded San Franciscans: those offering their properties as poll locations, Poll Workers who work from 6:15 AM to 9:00 PM Election Day, and those who volunteer and monitor the Department’s progress year round. For those of you that have signed up or are currently participating in one of these activities, thank you. If you would like to participate, please call (415) 554-4375 or come directly to the Department of Elections. We are located on the ground floor of City Hall. We encourage you to become involved in this Fall’s election. Many of San Francisco’s businesses provide their employees with the opportunity to take a day off to work in the community or participate in civic activities. There is no greater civic activity than working in our communities, ensuring that every San Franciscan has the opportunity to vote and that every vote is counted. Your San Franciscan spirit and determination is needed to make democracy work for everyone. The November 7, 2000 election marked the debut of San Francisco’s new optical scanning voting technology, the Eagle. This year we are taking out the Eagles and letting them fly again. Remember a few tips about the new technology: • If you make an error while marking your ballot, please ask for a new ballot. Do not try to correct the error on the old ballot. The Eagle technology may misread a ballot where the voter has tried to correct an error. Your polling place will have extra ballots just for this purpose. • Your vote is a private affair. While you may choose to tell someone how you voted, you have a right to cast your vote in privacy. At the polls, you will receive your ballot in a secrecy folder. Poll workers will be available to instruct you as to how to use the secrecy folder to protect the privacy of your vote. The Department of Elections provides absentee ballots allowing you to vote in the privacy of your home. Absentee ballots may be obtained by either completing the request form found on the back cover of this Voter Information Pamphlet, or by writing to the Department of Elections at the address above. The request must include your name, address and signature. An absentee ballot will be sent to you. Complete the absentee ballot and return it to the Department of Elections before 8:00 PM November 6, 2001. Remember that only one ballot may be mailed in the return envelope. Hand delivered ballots will only be accepted if delivered by you or your spouse, child, parent, grandparent, grandchild, brother or sister. The Department of Elections strives for excellence. We measure excellence in degrees of accuracy — accuracy of the results reported, accuracy of a well maintained voter registry and accuracy in the implementation of federal, state and local election laws. The Department of Elections strives to earn and maintain your confidence in this relationship every election, seeded and nurtured by repetitive, fair and reliable procedures and processes. We continue to ask for your confidence and support. Please contact us if you have questions or concerns.

  • Origins There Is Not Enough Evidence to Assert What Conditions Gave Rise to the First Cities
    City A city is a relatively large and permanent human settlement.[1][2] Although there is no agreement on how a city is distinguished from a town within general English language meanings, many cities have a particular administrative, legal, or historical status based on local law. Cities generally have complex systems for sanitation, utilities, land usage, housing, and transportation. The concentration of development greatly facilitates interaction between people and businesses, benefiting both parties in the process, but it also presents challenges to managing urban growth.[3] A big city or metropolis usually has associated suburbs and exurbs. Such cities are usually associated with metropolitan areas and urban areas, creating numerous business commuters traveling to urban centers for employment. Once a city expands far enough to reach another city, this region can be deemed aconurbation or megalopolis. Origins There is not enough evidence to assert what conditions gave rise to the first cities. However, some theorists have speculated on what they consider suitable pre- conditions, and basic mechanisms that might have been important driving forces. The conventional view holds that cities first formed after the Neolithic revolution. The Neolithic revolution brought agriculture, which made denser human populations possible, thereby supporting city development.[4] The advent of farming encouraged hunter-gatherers to abandon nomadic lifestyles and to settle near others who lived by agricultural production. The increased population-density encouraged by farming and the increased output of food per unit of land created conditions that seem more suitable for city-like activities. In his book, Cities and Economic Development, Paul Bairoch takes up this position in his argument that agricultural activity appears necessary before true cities can form.

Among the narrators will be former administrators, faculty members, trustees, alumni, and family of former Conservatory luminaries. Through this diverse group, we will explore the growth and expansion of the Conservatory, including its departments, organization, finances and curriculum. We will capture personal memories before they are lost, fill in gaps in our understanding of the Conservatory's history, and will uncover how the Conservatory helped to shape San Francisco's musical culture through the past century.

In this Self-Study, we will attempt to clearly lay out where we have been, where we are now, and where we hope to be as a result of this reflection. In Spring 2015, in response to pressure from the Interim Dean of the College of Liberal and Creative Arts, the Liberal Studies program merged with the Humanities department, becoming what is now called the School of Humanities and Liberal Studies (HUMLS). The School offers three majors (Humanities, Liberal Studies, American Studies), four minors (Humanities, American Studies, California Studies and Comics Studies), and one MA program (Humanities).
