Without their assistance and commitment this would not have been possible. Nicole Jordan, Executive Director Raul Espinal, Legislative Coordinator Nicole Weir, Legislative Intern Adrienne L. Johnson, Office of Assemblywoman Annette Robinson New York Red Book The 1977 Black and Puerto Rican Caucus Journal New York State Library Schomburg Research Center for Black Culture New York State Assembly Editorial Services Amsterdam News 2 DEDICATION: Dear Friends, It is with honor that I present to you this up-to-date chronicle of men and women of color who have served in the New York State Legislature. This book reflects the challenges that resolute men and women of color have addressed and the progress that we have helped New Yorkers achieve over the decades. Since this book was first published in 1977, new legislators of color have arrived in the Senate and Assembly to continue to change the color and improve the function of New York State government. In its 48 years of existence, I am proud to note that the Caucus has grown not only in size but in its diversity. Originally a group that primarily represented the Black population of New York City, the Caucus is now composed of members from across the State representing an even more diverse people.

    Classified Information the Newsletter of the Lloyd Sealy Library Fall 2015

    lloyd sealy library Classified Information The Newsletter of the Lloyd Sealy Library Fall 2015 From the Desk of the Chief Librarian Law codes, both penal and civil, rarely make for exciting reading. Just think of spending a pleasant evening brows- ing through the over 13,000-page Internal Revenue Service regulations (Title 26 of the U.S. Code of Federal Regulations). In France, however, which perhaps is more bureaucratic than the United States, the artist Joseph Hé- mard (1880-1961), a well-known French book illustrator, decided to satirize a number of French statutes through his amusing, mildly erotic drawings. In his work, Hémard used the pochoir (stencil) technique, which is a hand-col- ored illustration process that began in the 15th century for playing cards and the occasional woodcut. Having fallen out of use for centuries, the French revived the technique in the late 19th century. The handwork that produces the brilliantly colored illustrations is very costly and rarely used in the book printing process. The Sealy Library was fortunate to obtain two rare edi- tions of these works: Code Pénal (late 1920s) and Code Civil: Livre Premier, Des Personnes.... (1925). The latter pokes fun at a number of laws including divorce, pater- nity, adoption, and paternal authority (e.g., Article 371), which states, “The infant at any age must honor and re- spect his mother and father.” Article 378 mandates that the father alone exercises authority over the child during the marriage and until the child reaches his or her major- ity (18 years). The illustrations comically make such regu- lations clear and accessible to the reader.

INTRODUCTIOJJ The place of woman in literature has changed with the change in the type of literature. Her importance has increased as the motivating idea of the literature has changed from one of war and epic enterprises to one of chivalry and knightly tournaments. With the development in the importance of woman has come an in- crease in her influence and a more decided characterization. In the earliest English literature ahe is only a figure in the back- ground of the setting; it is not until time and custom have changed the literature that she becomes an active personality in the progression of the story. In taking up this study of woman in epic and romance, I shall firrt show her position in the epic,- .

This is the final report of the 1974-75 Student Advisory Committee's study of the senior year of high school. The committee's solutions to nsenioritisft focus on three areas: the school, the school and the community, and the school and colleges. The school itself can take certain steps to improve the senior year such as providing independent study, student-managed courses, early graduation, and varied courses. Within the community, work-study programs, student intern programs, and student volunteer programs can be provided. Schools and colleges can work together to provide early admission,-advanced placement, and credit for college courses. The committee recommends maintenance of the senior year, maintenance of current high school diploma requirements, focus on optional programs, articulation of high school and postsecondary education, the sharing 'of course evaluation and planning with students, and the encouragement of equal opportunity for non-college-bound students. Appendii A provides an extensive list of sample programs for enriching the senior year.

If they ordered five pounds of espresso, it was my job to deliver it. I would go, and of course, I didn’t want to work, so I would take an hour instead of fifteen minutes and get balled out by my parents because I took so long to get there. We used to supply all the cafes, and I would meet these folks. I didn’t think anything of it, and it was a lot of fun.
