    Copyright by Matthew Scott Archer 2004 The Dissertation Committee for Matthew Scott Archer certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: Living the Master Plan Committee: ____________________________ Kathleen Stewart, Supervisor ____________________________ Pauline Strong ____________________________ John Hartigan ____________________________ Kamran Ali ____________________________ Ronald Greene Living the Master Plan by Matthew Scott Archer, M.A., B.A. Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Texas at Austin in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Texas at Austin May 2004 Living the Master Plan Publication No.________ Matthew Scott Archer, Ph.D. The University of Texas at Austin, 2004 Supervisor: Kathleen Stewart I think of Living the Master Plan as an experimental ethnography. It might be better to say, in the words of Deleuze and Guattari, that it is a cartography. Whichever you prefer to call it, it is certainly an attempt to write critically about contemporary trends in American culture. I use multiple sites and subjects, including myself, to chart out the lines and machines which give shape to our lives. My map will take us into emerging forms of belonging, where community and corporatism converge and capitalist modes of valorization become our ethical foundation. Besides simply describing these emerging entities, I hope to provide a new context in which to evaluate them. Homeowners’ Associations, Master Planned Communities, and the property management firms specializing in their management are my privileged sites throughout. I map them out not only as new versions of community, but also as expressions of State desire.

I couldn't call him a wop or a goombah or a guinea. My girlfriend Kendra made me promise all this, and I said fine, not being a guy who would screw things up when they're about to turn in my favor. “This is a difficult decision for him,'' Kendra said.“Don’t make it worse.” I was lying on the fold-out bed watching Kendra brushing her hair. She was standing in the doorway to the bathroom, head to one side as she pulled the brush through. “W hat decision?” I said.“Fdis P.O. told him to do it.” “Fde could have decided to run.” “Fie should have.” Kendra was topless, and I looked over at the window.

  • In the Words of Alumni
    In the Words of Alumni Collin College 25th Anniversary Commemorative Anthology Why Collin College? Students attend Collin College for many reasons. Some are searching for small teacher-to-student ratios, like a private university. Some are looking for nationally renowned, award-winning professors.

Some want to take classes to gain employment in the jobs of their dreams. Like the diverse 46,000 students who attend Collin College annually, the reasons are varied and abundant. To commemorate 25 years of quality education, Collin College is shining the spotlight on some outstanding alumni and their reasons for choosing this exceptional institution of higher education.
