The registration process will begin at a special Town Meeting, which will be devoted to the introduction of the online Course Catalogue (including a preview of new courses) and an overview of the course registration process. Following the Town Meeting, cluster advisers will share a Course Registration Packet with each of their advisees. The packet will include the student’s current academic transcript, a Transcript Audit Review Form, and a Course Selection Form. Although it is ultimately the student’s responsibility to complete his/her Course Selection Form, this process works best when students consult with teachers, cluster advisors, and parents/guardians to make informed decisions. It is advised that each student utilize the Transcript Review Audit Form to ensure that adequate progress is being made toward all Calhoun graduation requirements.

No No unlimited duration. This written thesis follows processes where social questions yield artistic practices, that I call tools. In addition to this document being a thesis, this is a journal, and an open access archive, and a toolkit. I have written this thesis keeping in mind a not-too-long-ago moment in time when I was working as a dancer and felt a desperation for the lack of tools and know-how to work with people in a way that is socially sustainable. Thus, this thesis works partly with questions that span much longer temporalities than the frame of these MA studies. I open the thesis with the question I seem to have embraced the longest in my life: what is it to be good to one another? Thus, my intention is to indicate how artistic questions are embedded in life.

  • Two Generations of Contemporary Chinese Folk Ballad Minyao 1994-2017
    Two Generations of Contemporary Chinese Folk Ballad Minyao 1994-2017: Emergence, Mobility, and Marginal Middle Class A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE DIVISION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF HAWAI‘I AT MĀNOA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS IN MUSIC July 2020 By Yanxiazi Gao Thesis Committee: Byong Won Lee, Chairperson Frederick Lau (advisor) Ricardo D. Trimillos Cathryn Clayton Keywords: Minyao, Folk Ballad, Marginal Middle Class and Mobility, Sonic Township, Chinese Poetry, Nostalgia © Copyright 2020 By Yanxiazi Gao i for my parents ii Acknowledgements This thesis began with the idea to write about minyao music’s association with classical Chinese poetry. Over the course of my research, I have realized that this genre of music not only relates to the past, but also comes from ordinary people who live in the present. Their life experiences, social statuses, and class aspirations are inevitably intertwined with social changes in post-socialist China. There were many problems I struggled with during the research and writing process, but many people supported me along the way. First and foremost, I am truly grateful to my advisor Dr. Frederick Lau. His intellectual insights into Chinese music and his guidance and advice have inspired me to keep moving throughout the entire graduate study. Professor Ricardo Trimillos gave frequent attention to my academic performance. His critiques of conference papers, thesis drafts, and dry runs enabled this thesis to take shape. Professor Barbara Smith offered her generosity and support to my entire duration of study at the University of Hawai'i at Mānoa.

It has been a challenging term, but a positive one (no pun intended) too! Pupils have thrown themselves back into school life and my colleagues have continued to endeavour to make every effort to give each student in our community a brilliant school experience. Many families have shown great generosity and resilience over recent months and a real sense of team work and team spirit has been seen right across the academy. As you can see from this edition our academy community has been extremely busy since we returned in September and much has taken place both in and outside of the classroom and I New Line Learning Newsletter 1 02 January 2021 hope you will enjoy reading about some of these activities in this newsletter. Our new Year 7 students have settled in really well and seem to be embracing the New Line Learning experience. For our new families in Year 7 if this is your first opportunity to read our newsletter then I extend a warm to you to our readership. Each term we celebrate some of the activities and events that have taken place in our school community since the previous edition was published.
