I’m here this afternoon with Eugene Reineke, but you mentioned usually you’re known as Gene. Reineke: That’s correct, Mark. DePue: Why don’t you tell us where we are. Reineke: We’re here at my current employer, which is Hill & Knowlton, Inc. It’s a public relations firm, and we’re located at the Merchandise Mart in downtown Chicago. DePue: Which has a fascinating history itself. Someday I’ll have to delve into that one. We’re obviously here to talk about your experiences in the Edgar administration, but you had a lot of years working with Jim Thompson as well, so we’re going to take quite a bit of time. In today’s session, I don’t know that we’ll get to much of the Edgar experience because you’ve got enough information to talk about before that time, which is valuable history for us.

  • EL GAUCHO $81 'Fee' Increase
    EL GAUCHO $81 'Fee' Increase Vol. 48 - No. 111 Santa Barbara, California Monday, April 22, 1968 Approved by Regents By NINA PINSKY EG City Editor DAVIS—What Governor Reagan called a «sm all step that still confronts us*’ and what some Regents referred to as ‘ taxation with representation” resulted in an increased $81 student fee, passed Friday by the Board of Regents. The increase, which will bring an estimated additional $8 million to the University, as passed by a 17-6 vote after a two- hour discussion. Santa Barbara students will now pay $348 annually or $116 per quarter. Out of state student fees have also been increased by $400, so that at Santa Barbara out of state students will now pay $ 748 a year. Reasons for passage of the fee hike were attributed to a need to offset increases in fees for students in financial need, to add $2 to the $73 per quarter Incidental Fees, to supplement services performed by the Dean of Students Offices, and to give financial aid to those economically underprivileged students who could not normally attend the University. Broken down in terms of actual dollars, an estimated $3 million will offset the increase itself, an additional $600,000 will go toward the Incidental fees, $600,000 will be added to the Dean of Students offices, $3.725 million will be used for scholarships and their administration, and an estimated $1.7 million will go TWO PUSHERS-----Members of the winning Villa-Marina pushcart team round a curve on their way to toward increased revenues.

  • Ber Borochov's
    Science in Context 20(2), 341–352 (2007). Copyright C Cambridge University Press doi:10.1017/S0269889707001299 Printed in the United Kingdom Ber Borochov’s “The Tasks of Yiddish Philology” Barry Trachtenberg University at Albany Argument Ber Borochov (1881–1917), the Marxist Zionist revolutionary who founded the political party Poyle Tsien (Workers of Zion), was also one of the key theoreticians of Yiddish scholarship. His landmark 1913 essay, “The Tasks of Yiddish Philology,” was his first contribution to the field and crowned him as its chief ideologue. Modeled after late nineteenth-century European movements of linguistic nationalism, “The Tasks” was the first articulation of Yiddish scholarship as a discrete field of scientific research. His tasks ranged from the practical: creating a standardized dictionary and grammar, researching the origins and development of the language, and establishing a language institute; to the overtly ideological: the “nationalizing and humanizing” of the Yiddish language and its speakers. The essay brought a new level of sophistication to the field, established several of its ideological pillars, and linked Yiddish scholarship to the material needs of the Jewish people. Although “The Tasks” was greeted with a great deal of skepticism upon its publication, after his death, Borochov became widely accepted as the “founder” of modern Yiddish studies. “As long as a people remain ‘illiterate’ in their own language, one cannot yet speak of a national culture” (Borochov 1913, page 355 in this issue) When Ber Borochov’s manifesto “The Tasks of Yiddish Philology” appeared in 1913, few people could imagine that Yiddish was substantial enough to be the basis of a new scholarly discipline.

  • JUL 15 and the History of YIVO CECILE KUZNITZ | Delivered in English
    MONDAY The Rise of Yiddish Scholarship JUL 15 and the History of YIVO CECILE KUZNITZ | Delivered in English As Jewish activists sought to build a modern, secular culture in the late nineteenth century they stressed the need to conduct research in and about Yiddish, the traditionally denigrated vernacular of European Jewry. By documenting and developing Yiddish and its culture, they hoped to win respect for the language and rights for its speakers as a national minority group. The Yidisher visnshaftlekher institut [Yiddish Scientific Institute], known by its acronym YIVO, was founded in 1925 as the first organization dedicated to Yiddish scholarship. Throughout its history, YIVO balanced its mission both to pursue academic research and to respond to the needs of the folk, the masses of ordinary Yiddish- speaking Jews. This talk will explore the origins of Yiddish scholarship and why YIVO’s work was seen as crucial to constructing a modern Jewish identity in the Diaspora. Cecile Kuznitz is Associate Professor of Jewish history and Director of Jewish Studies at Bard College. She received her Ph.D. in modern Jewish history from Stanford University and previously taught at Georgetown University. She has held fellowships at the US Holocaust Memorial Museum, the Oxford Centre for Hebrew and Jewish Studies, and the Center for Advanced Judaic Studies at the University of Pennsylvania. In summer 2013 she was a Visiting Scholar at Vilnius University. She is the author of several articles on the history of the YIVO Institute for Jewish Research, the Jewish community of Vilna, and the field of Yiddish Studies.
