    Kameshia Shepherd The Superhero Genre: Exhibitions Which Explore the Identities, Costumes, and Missions of the Superheroes When the superheroes emerged in the late 1930s and early 1940s they had dual identities, sidekicks, powers and abilities, arch-villains, a costume, a moral code, and a top-secret headquarters but a lawsuit in 1940 established identity, power, and mission as the fundamental attributes of the superhero genre. According to Peter Coogan in Superhero: The Secret Origin of a Genre, Judge Learned Hand estab- lished these three elements in a copyright and infringement lawsuit between two comic book companies. In the case of Detective Comics, Inc. v. Bruns Publica- tions, Inc., DC Comics filed a suit which claimed that Bruns Publication’s super- hero Wonder Man was a duplicate of their character Superman. Judge Learned Hand agreed and stated in his ruling that Wonder Man copied Superman’s dual identities, various powers, and pro-social mission. Based on this copyright law- suit, Coogan argued that Judge Hand had unknowingly provided the definitional characteristics of a superhero.1 Coogan took Judge Hand’s interpretation a step further by combing all of the elements of Hand’s verdict to comprise his own definition. Coogan’s superhero is: A heroic character with a selfless, pro-social mission; with superpowers-extraordinary abilities, advanced technology, or highly developed physical, mental, or mystical skills; who has a superhero identity embodied in a codename and iconic costume, which typi- cally expresses his [or her] biography,

    Program Progress Update 34 January 24, 2015 (updated February 2, 2015) Introduction This is the 34th in a continuing series of Bond Accountability Commission reports on the performance of the Cleveland Metropolitan School District’s school facilities program. The report is based largely on the Construction Manager’s report for December 2014. These reports focus on construction costs, featuring a format designed to graphically communicate the status of projects in ongoing Segment 5 of the planned 10-segment construction program, including the total costs of each project and the costs of each hard-construction contract. The program is currently funded by the Ohio Facilities Construction Commission and proceeds of $335 million in District bonds and notes authorized by local voters as part of Issue 14 in May 2001. Soon it will also be financed by proceeds of $200 million in bonds and noted authorized as part of ballot Issue 4 in November 2014. The OFCC pays for two-thirds of most design and construction costs. Segment 5 progress: All five elementary-school projects are completed and hosting classes. Construction of Segment 5’s three high schools -- Cleveland School of the Arts, John Marshall and Max Hayes – is under way, with completions expected in the summer of 2015. For these high schools, the District is using one of the new construction- delivery methods authorized by the OFCC -- Construction Manager at Risk.

    HOW TO BE A HERO: A RHETORICAL ANALYSIS OF SUPERMAN’S FIRST APPEARANCE IN ACTION COMICS By Sevan Michael Paris Approved: Lauren Ingraham Susan North Professor of Rhetoric and Composition Assistant Professor of Rhetoric and (Director of Thesis) Composition (Committee Member) Bonnie Warren-Kring Associate Professor of Education (Committee Member) Herb Burhenn A. Jerald Ainsworth Dean of the College of Arts and Dean of the Graduate School Sciences i HOW TO BE A HERO: A RHETORICAL ANALYSIS OF SUPERMAN’S FIRST APPEARANCE IN ACTION COMICS By Sevan Michael Paris A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in Rhetoric and Writing University of Tennessee at Chattanooga Chattanooga, Tennessee ii ABSTRACT Through a combination of rhetorical heightening, idiom, and structure, Superman creators Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster influenced their young American audience with the first appearance of Superman in 1938’s Action Comics no. 1. Superman’s lack of distinguishing characteristics, dual identity, and embodiment of American culture allowed the character to become a vehicle for Siegel and Shuster, persuading children to be a helper of those in need and champion of the oppressed. Varying panel size and choosing what to show from what not to show allowed Siegel and Shuster to heighten specific moments within Superman’s story. Through metaphor and symbolic modeling, children recognized the impact of helping others in their lives both as a child and later as an adult. The tools that Siegel and Shuster had available to them in this particular medium—such as being able to simultaneously heighten several different moments within the narrative in one panel—make it a unique form of rhetorical heightening in fiction.

  • School Associated Violent Deaths
    The National School Safety Center's Report on School Associated Violent Deaths Internet: www.schoolsafety.us E-mail: [email protected] In-House Report of the National School Safety Center 141 Duesenberg Drive, Suite 11 • Westlake Village, CA 91362 • Ph: 805/373-9977 • Fax: 805/373-9277 Dr. Ronald D. Stephens, Executive Director DEFINITION: A school-associated violent death is any homicide, suicide, or weapons-related violent death in the United States in which the fatal injury occurred: 1) on the property of a functioning public, private or parochial elementary or secondary school, Kindergarten through grade 12, (including alternative schools); 2) on the way to or from regular sessions at such a school; 3) while person was attending or was on the way to or from an official school-sponsored event; 4) as an obvious direct result of school incident/s, function/s or activities, whether on or off school bus/vehicle or school property. * Note: Not a scientific survey. Since information is taken from newspaper clipping services, it is possible that not all such clippings have reached the NSSC. SCOPE: Newspaper accounts, on which NSSC bases this report, frequently do not list names and ages of those who are charged with the deaths of others. Such omissions were in some cases because the person charged was a minor. In some instances, persons were killed in drive-by shootings, gang encounters or during melees in which the killer was not identified, and the killers were either never apprehended or were caught days or months after the crime was first reported.

Unfortunately, our 2019- 20 program was cut short due to the COVID pandemic but we did have some silver linings. ACE Cleveland distributed $122,000 dollars in scholarships to 14 very deserving students. Most notably, one of Cleveland’s own, Diego Cortez, was awarded the ACE National CMiC—Allen Berg Memorial Scholarship for $40,000. We are very proud of Diego and this great accomplishment. A huge kudos needs to go to all the mentors and teachers that continue to foster this program during the shutdown. They are the lifeline that has kept the students engaged. I would also like to recognize the ACE Board for their unwavering dedication to bring an Mark Panzica after-school program to this year’s students in a remote environment. The Board also BOARD CHAIR re-evaluated the strategic plan and refined our goals to be more impactful and equitable. This process has helped us focus on how we can provide better opportunities to the students we serve. As we continue to navigate through a remote learning environment, our focus remains the same, which is to Engage, Excite, and Enlighten the students in the A / C / E industry and help foster their growth beyond high school graduation. I’m very proud of the impact ACE Mentor Cleveland has had and the progress we continue to make.
