We’re honored to also welcome back favorites from last year and previous years including Grammy-winners Kathy Mattea, Jon Vezner, and Don Henry, folk stalwarts Ellis Paul, Cliff Eberhardt and Amy Speace, vocal coaches Siobhan Quinn and Danny Ellis, and music theory guru Ray Chesna. We welcome an exciting new addition to this year’s staff in one of the leading lights in today’s contemporary folk scene, the wonderful Mary Gauthier. Drawing on tradition and innovation, our instructors bring a world of practical and imaginative experience to help you create and perform the music that makes your heart sing.

Our top-notch staff, knowledgeable in the various aspects of both the art and business of contemporary acoustic music, can help you achieve your goals. In addition, our limited enrollment and small campus encourage community-building at its best – frequent and informal interaction between students and staff, all doing our utmost to ensure that you go home energized and empowered to make the most of your music in hands-on and meaningful ways. -

The Evolution of Intersex Rights in Russia and Reframing Law and Tradition to Advance Reform
Meyers Final Note (Do Not Delete) 5/24/2019 1:55 PM “Tragic and Glorious Pages”: The Evolution of Intersex Rights in Russia and Reframing Law and Tradition to Advance Reform MAGGIE J. MEYERS* I. INTRODUCTION “Despite all the achievements of civilization, the human being is still one of the most vulnerable creatures on earth.” - Vladimir Putin1 “You are alone, you are not normal”; that is how Aleksander Berezkin learned he was intersex.2 Born in 1984 in Novokuznetsk—a steel-producing town in southwestern Siberia, not unlike Pittsburgh in terms of climate and local economy3—Aleksander lived the life of an ordinary boy until his adolescence, when puberty failed to arrive. “When I was at school, my body looked visibly different from other teenagers,” Aleksander recalled.4 “I had no muscles . [n]o hair on the face. I was skinny and tall. With narrow shoulders and wide hips. Breast glands were enlarged. Sometimes people took me for a girl. I have been bullied and humiliated.”5 Desperate for answers and relief from the merciless taunting and social ostracism, at the age of seventeen Aleksander submitted to a genetic test that revealed the truth. While typical males have the chromosomes XY, Aleksander’s were XXY; he was diagnosed with a variation of Klinefelter syndrome, in which an extra X chromosome inhibits the body’s production of testosterone and leads to the development of stereotypically feminine traits in males.6 But Aleksander received little comfort from his intersex diagnosis, nor Copyright © 2019 by Maggie J.

2012 Buskirk-Chumley Theater Annual Report
2012 CRAFTING THE CONVERSATION 2012 marked ten full years of BCT Management, Inc.’s leadership in operating the Buskirk-Chumley Theater. In addition, December brought the 90th anniversary of former Indiana Theater’s existence as a gathering place in downtown Bloomington. It was a time for reflecting on how far we’ve come, building for the future, and celebrating the connections we’ve made along the way. Beginning in 1922, the history of our community theater is an inspiring tale of individual vision, cooperative struggle, and ongoing communication between Bloomington and rest of the world. Facilitating that dialogue is at core of our mission. Our mission is accomplished in thousands of day-to-day actions. As an organization, 2012 brought strong focus on aligning every moment and task with our greater goals. Staff re-organization that began in January reminded us of the concept of the “lean, mean, fighting machine.” In our efforts to provide patrons and promoter partners the best possible facility and service at the least expense, we pared down overhead and streamlined technology in a variety of areas. However, our goals are not about combat, but conversation. Over the course of these twelve months, I believe we’ve transformed to a “lean, green, accessible machine,” which functions smoothly for the benefit of the whole community. We’re so grateful for the dedication and support of all our partners. The strong numbers represented in these pages reflect more than ten years of investment from individuals, businesses, organizations and public entities. Together, we’ve built a place for all, where sharing our stories is at the heart of the matter. -

Parents and children are misinformed, kept in the dark, sworn to secrecy, kept isolated and denied appropriate support. Argentina is thus in breach of its obligations under CRC to (a) take effective legislative, administrative, judicial or other measures to prevent harmful practices on intersex children causing severe mental and physical pain and suffering of the persons concerned, and (b) ensure access to redress and justice, including fair and adequate compensation and as full as possible rehabilitation for victims, as stipulated in CRC art. -
